Chapter 591: Ending
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Eldest Li’s life was indeed not in danger, but he was also not in a good state.
Three of his teeth had been knocked out, and the doctor had found dog teeth to fix on him. The three teeth were very expensive, and he had paid more than ten taels of silver. There would be other expenses in the future, not to mention the broken leg that Shao Qingyuan had stepped on.
Yes, that leg was broken. From then on, Eldest Li could only move with a walking stick. He could not do any work in the fields.
The Li family’s reputation in the village had also been tarnished. Although no one wanted them to be punished, no one was willing to interact with them. Madam Bao went to borrow money from others, but she was almost always blocked out.
Li Dabao and his siblings did not have a single friend in Yongfu Village who was willing to play with them. Because Eldest Li was seriously injured and bedridden, Li Dabao and his siblings had to work in the fields. They began to complain day by day.
As for the three married daughters of the Li family, it was said that none of them had come back to visit their parents. In fact, when Madam Bao came to look for them, they directly refused and pretended as if there was no one at home.
Gu Yundong felt that this was retribution. Look, the children they raised were all ingrates. This was what it meant to be ingrates!!
If they had treated Shao Qingyuan well back then, their life would have been so good now. They deserved it.
Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief. It was a pity that Old Li had died early and could not see this scene.
Actually, she had really considered whether she should dig him out and whip his corpse…
“Yundong, do you think I can really pass?” When Gu Dajiang entered, he saw his daughter thinking about something with a serious expression. He thought that she was thinking the same thing as him.
After all, they had to set off for the prefectural city tomorrow to find the mountain elder of the Tianhai Academy to settle the matter of enrollment.
Gu Yundong suddenly came back to her senses and immediately nodded with certainty. “Of course. Father, didn’t you read all the books that Master Qin gave you? Master Qin said that Father is talented. He only gave you the recommendation letter because he felt that you must be capable. My father is the best.”
After Gu Dajiang received his daughter’s affirmation, his face immediately flushed red. When he saw his daughter’s adoring gaze, he immediately felt smug.
“Alright, I’ll go back and practice my calligraphy.”
As he spoke, he turned around and left.
The corners of Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. Her father’s handwriting was actually very good. He had been an accountant for many years. He might not have read enough books, but he had written a lot of words.
The next day, the group prepared to head to the prefectural city.
Other than accompanying her father to the academy, Gu Yundong also had to visit the shop.
Shao Qingyuan felt that they needed protection, so he packed his bags and followed them.
Gu Dajiang and Madam Yang couldn’t bear to part, so they had to go together.
Gu Yunke had already climbed into the carriage. Her soft little face was hidden behind the curtain of the carriage, as if no one could see her and they could not keep her at home.
Aunt Ke was going back to the prefecture capital.
Gu Yundong also brought Xue Rong and Tong Shuitao along. Xue Rong followed beside Gu Dajiang as a page boy.
This time, Shao Qingyuan brought Ah Zhu and Ah Shu along. Last time, he brought Ah Mao along with him.
There were a lot of people, so they were divided into two carriages.
Seeing that there was nothing left, the group set off majestically and left Yongfu Village.
There were many people standing outside the Gu family’s workshop. Someone who was well-informed said with a face full of emotion, “I heard that the boss is going to open a shop in the prefectural city this time. Tell me, how long has it been? The boss is actually opening a shop in the prefectural city. It’s amazing.”
