Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched at the thought of this person.
However, after thinking about it, she still felt that he was the most suitable.
Therefore, after returning to the village at night, she went straight to the Shi family.
When the parents of the Shi family saw her coming, they were stunned for a moment, thinking that she was looking for them for the matter in the field.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yundong was looking for Zhuangzi. Zhuangzi had never been at home, especially recently. He often left after eating in the morning with a few steamed buns and only returned when it was dark.

Zhuangzi nodded vigorously. One tael of silver. He had heard that the shop assistants in the workshop only earned five hundred copper coins.
Actually, he also wanted to go to the workshop, but Gu Yundong wanted honest and reliable people. He admitted that he was not. Besides, he still had to keep an eye on Madam Fang and Zhao Dafa.
