Chapter 383 - 383: You Eloped
Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows. After experiencing such treatment for the third time, she could not help but look at Aunt Ke.
Aunt Ke snorted. “Ignore them. They’re just a bunch of gossipy old women who have nothing better to do.”
Gu Yundong found it funny. She was already gone. How could there still be her gossips in this village?
“What’s going on?”
Aunt Ke originally wanted to tell her when they got home. But since she had asked, she did not hide it from her.
“I wonder who spread the news that you eloped with Shao Qingyuan.”
Huh?
Elope??
Gu Yundong’s mind was filled with question marks. She could not help but turn to look at Shao Qingyuan. Then, she remembered that Shao Qingyuan had been pulled away by Qin Wenzheng before leaving the restaurant. He said that he had something to tell him.
She didn’t know what Qin Wenzheng was up to, and why he was being so mysterious.
Aunt Ke sneered. “You had already been away from the village for two months before Shao Qingyuan left. How can he get involved with you? Besides, why do the two of you have to elope? You have a house, land, and family here. If you want to be together, you can find someone to propose marriage, and no one will object. Is there a need to elope?”
Gu Yundong felt that what Aunt Ke said made sense.
“Perfect. I reckon he’ll come to the house to propose a marriage in a few days after he goes back.”
Aunt Ke suddenly paused and looked at her in disbelief. “Are you serious? He convinced you just like that? You agreed. You’re too unreserved.”
“I’ve been reserved.” It was fifteen minutes.
Aunt Ke faked a smile and looked at her as if she expected better from her.
Although she knew that with Shao Qingyuan’s attitude, Gu Yundong would definitely not be able to escape from him, but she should at least struggle for a year or two. She had really overestimated her. She had given herself away after going out for a while.
Aunt Ke was a little heartbroken, but when it came to serious matters, she still frowned. “Marriage proposal at this time? I’m afraid the rumors will become more and more intense.”
“Let them say what they want. Anyway, my workshop is going to recruit people again. Whoever talks behind our backs can forget about coming in. I won’t indulge them.”
Most people in Yongfu Village were still friendly, but no matter where, there would always be some idle and talkative people who insisted on coming out to make their presence known.
Aunt Ke smiled. “That’s true. Don’t worry, I’ve already memorized all the people who badmouthed you. I’ll tell you later.”
Gu Yundong looked at her and smiled. There was no need to say anything.
Tong Shuitao, who had heard everything from the beginning to the end, could not help but feel a little excited. Miss was indeed that Miss. She bore grudges.
Now that she knew the reason, Gu Yundong no longer paid attention to those strange gazes.
The group of people walked majestically towards the foot of the mountain. Gu Yundong realized that there had been a lot of changes along the way.
At the very least, some of the villagers’ appearances were very different. There were also a few families whose houses had been renovated or rebuilt. It gave her a momentary illusion that she had not been back for a long time.
Aunt Ke explained, “The conditions of the few families that work in your workshop have improved. At the very least, they can eat well and dress well when they take back the salary for the past few months. There are also those who work for Feng Daneng. Because of your house as a signboard, they have been working non-stop for the past few months. Many people have been looking for them. Look, Feng Daneng’s family has already built a few more rooms. There are also some small workers under him who have also repaired the house.”
What Aunt Ke did not say was that when Village Chief Chen Liang saw that the villagers’ lives had improved so much, he was really grateful to Gu Yundong. He smiled every day.
Gu Yundong had a smile on her face, and she was also very happy.
As they spoke, they arrived at the entrance of the house. However, Gu Yundong suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at the house in front of her in a daze..
