Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred One couldn’t help but wonder what Ning Wanru was up to, knowing that it was sculpted by Qiaoqiao, yet she took it back to the North Mountain Villa and now had even spent two hundred and sixty thousand to buy it.
Could she have developed a liking for Qiaoqiao?
Zhang Yi looked out at the setting sun, thinking that when Old Patriarch Gu returned, things were unlikely to be calm.
Having lost both her husband and her soldiers, Ning Wanru could no longer stay; she took two bodyguards and drove towards a villa area in the Imperial Capital.
She needed to find that person.
With everything going poorly lately, what should she do next?
The affairs of the Gu Family were important, but the matters behind the Gu Family were even more critical.
One misstep, and they could lose everything; by then, her Ning Family and that person’s family might both be doomed.
In Stone Town, Qingshui County.
The Gu Family’s living room.
Yuhong and Qiaoqiao were packing.
The Gu Family’s house had not been sold.
It was given to their younger uncle, Lian Dongsheng.
After all, even if it were sold, it wouldn’t fetch much money.
Nowadays, nearly everyone in Stone Town knew that the stubborn old man Gu, who was surprisingly from the Imperial Capital,
was actually a wealthy young master.
Everyone couldn’t help but sigh; Old Man Gu had died too soon.
Otherwise, he would have gone to the Imperial Capital to enjoy his life as well.
Of course, some questioned whether Old Man Gu knew his own identity when he first came here with his wife.
Of course, this was just speculation.
Nobody dared to ask him directly.
Now, Tianfeng’s status was extraordinary.
He was the heir to a gemstone store in the Imperial Capital.
A gemstone store, that must be worth a lot of money.
Thus, the women in town looked at Lady Yu with envy and jealousy.
And Old Patriarch and Lady Yu had formally met Yuhong’s mother, solidifying their connection as in-laws.
Although Old Patriarch had been living in the Imperial Capital for a long time, he was extremely polite to Mother Lian.
And Lady Yu, needless to say, she had lived a humble life for fifty years.
So, she had things in common to talk about with Mother Lian.
Old Patriarch also didn’t dare to show any contempt; his life now was like frying on a hot flame.
The slightest mistake would invite scolding from Lady Yu, how could he dare to show any dissatisfaction?
Moreover, why should he be dissatisfied?
Yuhong was virtuous, capable, respectful of the elderly, and her children were well educated; he was genuinely pleased with her.
She put to rest the hopes of those women who were hoping for Yuhong to be disliked and discarded by the Gu Family.
Qiaoqiao had asked her elder and younger uncles if they would like to move to the Imperial Capital with her.
After all, they were her relatives.
Qiaoqiao thought that her uncles would readily agree.
But to her surprise, they declined the offer.
She hadn’t expected that the younger uncle would be so wise as to choose to stay in Stone Town and Lian Family Village.
As for the future, it was hard to say, but for now, they would not be moving to the Imperial Capital with Tianfeng’s family.
What would they do there?
Neither of them had much education; their skills were in farming and selling vegetables.
Moreover, their greenhouse vegetables were flourishing; not only had they cleared their debts, but they had also repaid the capital Qiaoqiao had lent them.
Now the greenhouse was entirely under the ownership of the two brothers.
And they didn’t have to worry about sales; they supplied Luo Fan’s hotels, and recently, Luo Fan was planning to open a vegetable wholesale market.
Regardless of the time, people always need to eat food and vegetables.
