Chapter 673: Beaten Up Again
Editor: Henyee Translations
Nie Shuang controlled her eyes from glancing at the milk tea. Then, she said to the young lady who was looking at her eagerly, waiting for her to praise the milk tea, “Keke, wait for me here first. I’ll go look for your elder sister. I’ll be back soon.”
As she spoke, she stood up and instructed the maidservant standing at the door, “Take good care of the two children.”
Without waiting for the maidservant to respond, she went downstairs.
Gu Yundong was still welcoming the guests at the door. There were a lot of people today.
She really did not expect her father’s twenty-odd classmates to be so influential. Almost every family had sent people over. Now, the courtyard behind her shop was almost full.
The problem was that these people were actually very happy to gather together and talk. At the same time... they ate.
Zhou Dafu and the others were also in a daze. Actually, the Zhou family was not the only one eying the Gu family’s shop. Many people in the prefectural city knew that such a shop that specialized in selling canned food and white sugar was about to open.
After all, the fliers were everywhere. Therefore, many people with some family background wanted to see what kind of background the Gu family had.
Steward Zhou’s legs were a little weak now, and he felt like a disaster was imminent.
As expected, when he returned to the carriage, he was kicked hard by Zhou Dafu.
“Didn’t you say that Gu’s has no background or backing? Didn’t you say that this family is just a bumpkin from the countryside? Didn’t you say that if everything is handed over to you, you can definitely stop their shop from opening? Look, look, this is called no backing, right? Damn you!”
He kicked Steward Zhou again. “Fortunately, I was careful and didn’t let those local hooligans find trouble immediately. Otherwise, I would be the one dead now! You useless thing, why aren’t you calling those people back?”
“Yes, yes, Old Master.” Steward Zhou was angry but did not dare to say anything. He could only lower his head and quickly agree.
Unexpectedly, just as he turned around to leave, he saw another carriage parked at the entrance of the Gu family’s shop.
Steward Zhou’s pupils constricted when he saw the sign on the carriage. Ignoring the fact that Zhou Dafu was angry, he hurriedly called out, “Master, look.”
“What are you looking at? What else is there to see? Let me tell you...”
As he spoke, he followed Steward Zhou’s finger and looked over. In the next moment, his voice seemed to be blocked and he could not say a word.
