Chapter 443: So Gu Dajiang Is Here

Grandpa Yu was shocked by her sudden raised voice.
Gu Yundong could not help but stand up. “I didn’t hear wrongly. Did you just say my father? Have you seen my father?”
Seeing this, Grandpa Yu nodded. “Yes, your father is in Wanqing Prefecture and has been looking for you.”
Gu Yundong’s breathing suddenly quickened. The surprise caught her off guard, and her hands began to tremble slightly. She hurriedly asked, “Then where is he now? Where is my father now? Can you take me to him?”
“He went out yesterday and hasn’t returned yet.” After Grandpa Yu finished speaking, he saw her frown and look disappointed. He hurriedly added, “But you don’t have to worry. Your father usually comes back every two to three days. He heard that there was news of you yesterday and left in a hurry. I didn’t have time to ask him where he was going. If he doesn’t find you, he will still come back. He lives in the same courtyard as us. You’ll see him in a day or two.”
Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief and sat back down.
The joy on her face was still on. Tong Shuitao, who was beside her, was also extremely excited.
Unexpectedly, after they had just arrived at Wanqing Prefecture, while they were at a loss as to how to buy Bai Muzi, the heavens gave them such a huge surprise.
Great, there was finally news of Old Master.
Gu Yundong calmed down a little and asked the owner of the wonton shop to pour two cups of tea. She then spoke again, “Grandpa Yu, can you tell me about my father? How did you meet him? How is he now?”
“Your father has really suffered a lot to find you.”
After receiving the help of Gu Yundong’s basket of food, the three of them decided to come to Wanqing Prefecture.
Initially, Gu Yundong’s family had set off less than half an hour earlier than them. They had thought that they could catch up to her if they were fast. They could travel together so that they could take care of each other.
Unexpectedly, they never met again, but that was normal. At that time, there were too many people coming this way. It was crowded and they were all in a hurry to travel. It was indeed not easy to meet again.
Later on, they arrived at Wanqing Prefecture. However, the city gate of Wanqing Prefecture was also closed, preventing anyone from entering.
However, even at the city gate, there were people here who offered porridge for free. They could last for a while.
The Yu family had also looked for Gu Yundong, but there had been no news.
It was only when the new emperor ascended the throne, the city gate opened, and a new order was issued that they finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Just like Gu Yundong’s choice back then, the Yu family did not intend to return to their hometown, so they took root in Wanqing Prefecture.
Unfortunately, they had no backing or money. In the end, they were assigned to a remote village by the local government. Not only was that place remote, but it was also especially poor. It was very difficult for men and women to marry, and the land was very barren.
If they stayed in that village, they would probably live a hard life for the rest of their lives.
After a discussion, the Yu Family decided to register in the village. However, they went to the prefectural city to find work. At the very least, they had to try their luck. They still had some money on them, so they rented a small courtyard.
However, it was easier said than done to find work in the prefectural city for those who had no roots. Especially since there were many refugees who had escaped from the famine here. They could endure hardship and demand low wages.
Now, Grandpa Yu’s son was helping someone move the goods. His grandson was working in a small shop, but the salary was pitifully low.
Even so, he cherished this job. After all, if he didn’t do it, there would be countless people waiting in line to do it..
