Chapter 1068 Niudan
Gu Yundong said with a smile, "Uncle Chen doesn't have to be so polite, you can say anything if you have anything, and I will definitely help if I can."
"That's right." Chen Liang was still a little embarrassed, "You also know that Niu Dan and his brother Donkey Dan were studying in the town before."
The corner of Gu Yundong's mouth twitched, she really didn't know Niudan's brother was called Donkey Dan, didn't it mean that he went to school early and was called a big name?
Chen Liang, who is also a grandfather, still insists on a cheap name to support himself.
Donkey Dan is the son of Chen Jincai.
"Donkey Dan is now studying at Dongyi Academy in the county seat." Chen Liang said.
Gu Yundong, "This is a good thing."
Donkey Dan used to study in the town. When Chen Jin was a small manager, the family of three rented a house in the town.
Later, Chen Jincai's job was gone, and the house was naturally not rented. Fortunately, Wei's natal family was from the town, so Donkey lived at his grandfather's house most of the time, which was convenient for going to and from school.
But the Wei family's aunt and aunt were quite dissatisfied. After all, Chen Jincai had already gone home to farm. Even if he would pay for food every month, how could he get enough? They were dissatisfied, and the family rioted several times because of this, and Donkey Dan's reading was also affected.
It wasn't until Chen Jin became the county's clerk that the Wei family became enthusiastic about donkey eggs.
But donkey is not a fool, so there is no way to see this kind of perfunctory politeness.
So, after Chen Jin became a shopkeeper, and the wages rose and stabilized in the county town, he began to search for the donkey eggs to be sent to the county town to study.
Just right, Niudan is in Dongyi Academy, and the two brothers can be companions.
So not long ago, Donkey Dan also entered the Dongyi Academy.
Chen Jin was relieved, but problems also appeared. Niudan used to go to the county seat in the Gu family's carriage, but now that he has a donkey egg, Chen Liang is embarrassed to let both grandchildren rub against the other's carriage.
These days, Chen Liang drove his two grandsons to the county seat in an ox cart.
It’s just that the county town is far away, and the ox cart is slow. If he delivers it once or twice, it doesn’t matter. If he has to pick him up every morning and evening, it will take too much time, and he doesn’t have to do his own work.
Chen Liang also thought about renting a house in the county, but firstly, the rent in the county was expensive, and secondly, because the two grandchildren were young, they were not at ease without anyone around to take care of them.
Although Chen Jincai could occasionally live in the backyard of Gu Ji's shop, he could never live there with his children.
Thinking about it, Chen Liang still wanted to borrow the Gu family's carriage to go back and forth to the county, just to carry an extra donkey.
Gu Yundong immediately agreed, "No problem."
Chen Liang breathed a sigh of relief, took out the copper coins on his body, "This is a hundred pennies, just treat it as their brother's carriage fee."
Gu Yundong thought for a while, but accepted it without rejecting it.
Chen Liang breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll go back first, and you should rest early."
He waved his hand and left Gu's house briskly.
Returning to his yard, Mr. Zhou, who had been waiting, hurriedly greeted him, "Have you accepted the one hundred pennies?"
"Accepted." Chen Liang looked relaxed and went in to eat.
Zhou Shi let out a breath, but Wei Shi, who was beside him, was unhappy when he heard it, "I just took one more person, and they still charged money, and the Gu family is not bad for that one hundred yuan, why bother with us. ."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou was slapped on the back heavily, "You can shut up, I think I know why the boss didn't take you to the county seat."
