Chapter 689: She’s Engaged

Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong felt that she was always short of people. Every time she opened a new shop or bought a new house, she would have a headache.

However, Madam Dai and Nie Shuang were very insistent. Since it was a three-person shop, Gu Yundong’s candidate was naturally needed.

Moreover, Gu Yundong was the backbone of the three of them. If she arranged for people to work here, she would understand the situation in the shop more directly. If anything was missing or there might be a problem, she could understand and adjust it immediately. It could not be better.

Gu Yundong was speechless. Didn’t they say that they would do everything?

This was different from what they had agreed on. She felt like she had boarded a pirate ship.

Nie Shuang chuckled. “Sister Yundong, this is what it means for the capable to do more work.”

Gu Yundong smiled insincerely. “No, I’m incapable.”

Madam Dai was speechless.

Although Gu Yundong had a headache, she still agreed to go back and consider the candidates carefully. Madam Dai had said that she had to hire at least one person.

One person.

On the way back, Gu Yundong leaned against the carriage wall and sighed.

“If it’s just one, Lan Hua’er will do. I just don’t know if she’s willing to come.”

Lan Hua’er was Zhuangzi’s younger sister. She was doing some chores at home, and she was very smart and good-looking. She was quite suitable.

Previously, when Gu Yundong’s workshop was recruiting, Lan Hua’er did not come to apply for the job twice. She had inadvertently asked once and Lan Hua’er said that there was a lot of work at home. If she went to the workshop to work, her parents would be too busy. After all, the Shi couple still had to help her manage the 30 acres of orchard.

But now that the Shi couple had found someone to help them work in the village, it was much easier.

Furthermore, Zhuangzi would be coming to the prefectural city soon, so the siblings would accompany each other.

Yes, I’ll ask Lan Hua’er later.

Tong Shuitao looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. After a while, she said softly, “Um, Miss, I’m afraid Lan Hua’er won’t come.”

“Oh? How did you know?” Gu Yundong was a little surprised.

Tong Shuitao said, “A few days ago, my father delivered goods over. When we were chatting, he unintentionally mentioned that Lan Hua’er is getting engaged.” She had interacted with Lan Hua’er a few times, and the two of them slowly became familiar with each other, so she asked about her.

Huh??

Gu Yundong was stunned. “Engaged? With whom?”

“It’s Jiang Bao.”

Jiang Bao? Gu Yundong felt that this name was very familiar.

Not long after, she suddenly remembered. “It’s him? The shop assistant from Brother Shao’s pharmacy?”

Gu Yundong had a deep impression of him. When the man first met her father, he was so indignant that he almost chased the two of them out with a broom when Gu Dajiang deliberately made things difficult for Shao Qingyuan. Later on, when he found out her father’s identity, his attitude changed 180 degrees. He flattered her father so much that even Gu Dajiang couldn’t take it anymore and hurried out.

She did not expect him to be engaged to Lan Hua’er.

Tong Shuitao said, “I heard that it was Zhuangzi who set them up. Zhuangzi and Jiang Bao have a good relationship. He seems to be a reliable person. His family is simple, and his parents are reasonable people. Hence, he entrusted his sister to Jiang Bao. Before Ah Shu came, the two families had just decided to marry them next year.”

Gu Yundong blinked. They were engaged just like that?

“Is Lan Hua’er satisfied with Jiang Bao?”

Tong Shuitao nodded. “The two of them have met before. I heard that they’re quite satisfied.”

Therefore, Lan Hua’er would most likely not come to the prefecture capital.

Thus, Gu Yundong could only look for a new candidate.

However, this time, another figure quickly popped up in her mind.
