Chapter 107 Taking Advantage
After hearing the explanations from the two of them, Ms. Yang's sour feeling dissipated a lot, "Oh, so that's it. I thought you were secretly making a fortune without telling us.
Lao San, you are a talented person with a good brain. If there is a way to get rich, don’t forget to support your elder brother. "
Gu Dehai said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is joking, if the third brother had a way to get rich, how could our family live in such poverty?"
Yang said with a smile: "That's what I said, third brother, don't take it seriously. By the way, third brother, I think shopkeeper Huang's business is quite big, and he has many people working under him. You and Huang I have a good personal relationship with the shopkeeper. Can you ask him if he still needs more people in his shop? Can our brother Cheng come to work in his shop? "
Gu Dechang smiled awkwardly and said hesitantly: "I have to ask Brother Huang about this."
Seeing that Gu Dechang did not refuse, Mr. Yang suddenly raised his eyebrows and said in a loud voice: "Brother Cheng, come and kowtow to your third uncle. Thank you, third uncle."
Gu Chengcheng rushed over from behind the crowd and knelt down in front of Gu Dechang.
“Thank you, third uncle.”
Gu Dechang hurriedly bent down to help Gu Chengcheng up, "Brother Cheng, get up quickly and talk."
Gu Huayu looked at Yang, who did not regard her as an outsider. His eyes couldn't help but darken a bit.
"Why is the aunt like this? How difficult is it for the third uncle?" Gu Chengjuan whispered to Gu Huayu.
Gu Huayu sneered and didn't reply. Yang was just trying to take advantage.
Mr. Yang smiled and held Gu Chengcheng's shoulders, looked at Gu Dechang and said: "Third brother, shopkeeper Huang can lend you such a big house and help you open a shop. It seems that he values love and righteousness.
For a capable person like Shopkeeper Huang, as long as the third child is willing to help, it won’t be a problem for us, Brother Cheng, to just be a small steward when we go to Shopkeeper Huang’s place, right? "
Gu Chengjuan frowned and muttered: "You are really pushing your limits. Can you be thicker-skinned?"
Mrs. Fang chuckled twice and took over the conversation, "Sister-in-law, shopkeeper Huang has a good personal relationship with the third brother. It's not impossible for our third brother to put down his face and beg shopkeeper Huang to find a job for Brother Cheng. But whether Brother Cheng can be a steward depends on his ability."
Gu Deqi, Gu Huaiqing's second son, came to the rescue and said, "Well, that's the truth. To be in charge, you must have the ability to do it.
From now on, as long as Brother Cheng is diligent and willing to learn and ask questions, he will be able to be in charge sooner or later. "
Mr. Yang awkwardly patted Gu Chengcheng's shoulder and said with a sullen face: "Did you hear that? Be more diligent in the future, be willing to learn and ask questions, and be a steward as soon as possible, so as not to embarrass your third uncle."
Gu Chengcheng lowered his head and said nothing.
Gu Defang smoothed things over and said, "Let's go into the house first!"
Gu Chenglin hurriedly led everyone to the main hall.
Gu Chengjiao, Gu Chengjuan, and Gu Chengzhang were busy serving tea and water to everyone.
The adults were talking in the main hall. Gu Chengyu took Gu Chengjuan and Gu Huayu to play in the garden.
Mrs. Wan followed, called Gu Huayu aside, and asked, "Xiaoyu, with so many people resting at home, are the beds, quilts, mattresses, etc. enough?"
Gu Huayu nodded, "Don't worry, Mom, that's enough."
Wanshi said uneasily: "Take me to have a look. If you don't see it, I feel uneasy. If the reception is not good, Yang's mouth will spread everywhere."
Gu Huayu said helplessly: "Okay, mother-in-law, come with me."
Gu Huayu took Wanshi starting from the wing room and looked at each one.
Seeing the brand new and fine brocade quilt on the bed, Mrs. Wan took a breath and said heartbrokenly: "Xiaoyu, did you buy this? Did you spend a lot of money on it?"
