Chapter 150: Let the Country Bumpkins Broaden Their Horizons

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong was pondering when Shao Qingyuan arrived.

He saw that she had not come out for a long time and was a little worried, so he came to take a look.

Gu Yundong’s eyes lit up when she saw him. “Shao Qingyuan, do me a favor.”

“Tell me.”

“That Gu Xian’er, the woman who just came with me, is my cousin. Help me keep an eye on her today and see what she has done.”

Shao Qingyuan agreed without another word. “Okay.” Then, he walked towards the front courtyard.

However, he had only taken two steps when Gu Yundong stopped him. “Hey, wait, forget it. Your presence is too strong. It’s too easy to be discovered if you keep an eye on her.”

Shao Qingyuan took two steps back and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t be discovered. You have to trust me.”

Gu Yundong was stunned. When she met his sincere gaze, she nodded inexplicably.

Shao Qingyuan suddenly laughed and left.

Gu Yundong stood silently on the spot. She actually felt that Shao Qingyuan was so handsome?

She suddenly slapped her face and came back to her senses. What kind of situation was this? Why was she still infatuated?

Gu Yundong composed herself and strode towards the front yard.

The villagers greeted her one after another. Gu Yundong smiled and replied, ignoring the curious eyes of the gossipy crowd.

She still walked up to Granny Qian and went to talk to Gu Xian’er directly. She did not have the time to greet her.

Nanny Qian’s congratulatory gift had yet to be sent over. Logically speaking, she could have directly handed it to Madam Zhou, who was entertaining the guests at that time. However, she was from the Peng family and represented the master of the Peng family. She was also the richest and most powerful person present besides Liu Wei. She thought that she was superior.

Compared to the villagers who only gave fruits, vegetables, eggs, and so on, the gifts they gave were much more valuable.

Therefore, she naturally had to broaden the horizons of these people who had never seen the world.

Nanny Qian reached back, and another maidservant placed the things on the table one by one.

Nanny Qian smiled and said, “This is a congratulatory gift from my Young Madam to the Gu family. I hope Miss Gu doesn’t mind.”

The people present couldn’t help but look over.

There was a fruit box with all kinds of famous pastries in the city.

A calligraphy painting, which, according to Granny Qian, was written by a famous calligrapher from the previous dynasty.

There was a screen with embroidery of the Eight Spirits of the Golden Age on it.

Also, cloth. The Peng family was the largest cloth merchant in Fengkai County. This was the most practical gift.

Gu Yundong did not expect the Peng family to be so generous. Peng Zhongfei… Was he really frightened?

Not to mention anything else, just that calligraphy painting and that ornament were not easy to obtain.

Liu Wei was also shocked. He thought of the gift he had given out previously and quietly pulled Liu An over. “Later, add another 20 taels of silver as a gift.”

Liu An widened his eyes. Young Master, you’re too prodigal.

Although he liked the Gu family, the Gu family was in the countryside after all. If he gave them too much, it would make them feel uneasy.

If Gu Yundong knew what Liu An was thinking, she would definitely kick him aside.

What was there to be uneasy about? The more, the better. She could even smile in her dreams at night, okay?

Did she look like someone who had never seen the world?

Nanny Qian smiled and asked, “Miss Gu, do you like them?”

She wanted to see Gu Yundong’s flattered expression, but the latter nodded and calmly took the items. “This is a token of your Young Madam’s appreciation. Of course I like it..”
