She tasted it and smiled when she met Gu Yunke’s expectant gaze. “It’s delicious.”

The little girl shyly pounced into her arms again and gave Madam Yang a date cake. New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Everyone at the table laughed. It was at this moment that Tong Shuitao walked in with a basket of fresh vegetables.

“Auntie Dong came just now. She knew that Madam and Young Miss were back and wanted to come and visit. However, seeing that it was already late, she was afraid of disturbing Young Miss’s rest, so she didn’t come in. Instead, she stuffed this basket of vegetables over.”

Although the Gu family also had a backyard, it was used to refine white sugar. Even if they planted vegetables, they could only open up a small piece of land in a small corner. Aunt Ke had only planted a little.

Dong Xiulan was still working in the workshop and had just returned. She was naturally very happy to hear that Gu Yundong had returned home.

Aunt Ke continued, “I heard that their house is now rented to another person, a man from town. I don’t know what he’s doing in the village. It’s not easy to find out.”

“Also, many people in the village are planting sugarcane now. I heard that when you collected sugarcane last year, you purchased from all the families in the nearby village. Those people earned money, so the villagers were a little envious. They asked Chen Liang to ask Shao Qingyuan if he would purchase their sugarcane if they planted it in the future.”

“Shao Qingyuan said that as long as the sugarcane is good, we’ll accept it. However, everyone doesn’t dare to plant too much. Almost every family has some, but not a lot.”

“By the way, a few days ago, many people came to inquire about when your workshop would be recruiting again. Not only did the villagers came to ask, but people from the neighboring villages also came to ask.”

Aunt Ke rambled on for a while, but Gu Yundong had just returned. She could talk about the rest another day.

Seeing that it was getting late, she asked the Tong family to serve the meal first.

Just as the dishes were served, Shao Qingyuan returned.

He should have already returned home. He came over after changing his clothes, and his hair was still a little wet.

Gu Yundong was very curious. After dinner, she asked him impatiently, “Why did Mr.. Qin look for you?”
