‘You’ve got... quite a lot of drama.’
Grandpa Yu could not stand it anymore. He waved his hand and chased him away. “Alright, alright. This has nothing to do with you. Hurry up and go home. Your grandson will come looking for you later.”
Grandpa Zhang let out a sigh and refused to leave. “I’m talking to him. Why don’t you know any etiquette? How can you chase a guest out?”
“Hmph, I haven’t forgotten what you said just now. Why don’t I have a good talk with the Gu family’s girl?”
Grandpa Zhang immediately fell silent and snorted. “Seriously, if you want to leave, so be it. You’re too much.”
With that, she hurriedly left.
Grandpa Yu closed the courtyard door and blocked the view outside. He then came back to greet Gu Yundong. “Come, come. Yundong, take a seat first.”
He poured two glasses of water for her. “Why did you bring anything? These things are expensive.”
“Grandpa Yu, I hope you don’t mind,” Gu Yundong said politely. Then, he changed the topic and said in a low voice, “Actually, I came today to ask for your help with something.”
“Tell me. As long as I can help, I’ll definitely help.”
Carpenter Tan polished the box twice in the end. It was very flat and smooth to the touch. He then waxed it again.
By the time Gu Yundong got it, it was still too early.
She became happy and gave Carpenter Tan a tael of silver.
Carpenter Tan was stunned when he saw this. It did not take much effort for him to buy such a small wooden box. He did not need so much at all.
But Gu Yundong had already left with the wooden box. When she left the Tan family, she said to the old man, “Grandpa Yu, I still have something to do, so I’ll leave first. I’ll visit you again after my father recovers.”
Grandpa Yu could also tell that she seemed to be in a hurry.
“Alright, I’ll send you off.”
“No need. Xue Rong is here. Take your time and go home first. Remember to eat the pastries I brought for you. Don’t let them go bad. The weather is hot now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he left with large strides with Xue Rong before he could speak.
With the box, she could deliver the letter.
Unfortunately, there were always obstacles blocking her path to success.
Gu Yundong sighed inwardly as she looked at the four people who had stopped him.
