Seeing her, Shao Qingyuan straightened his body slightly and walked towards her. After standing still, he said, “I’ll go with you.”
Gu Yundong shook her head. “No.”
“If you encounter any danger on the way with nobody except Auntie, I can help.”
Gu Yundong smiled. “I brought my mother, brother, and sister here safely even when I was escaping from the wilderness. Now, my mother is the only one I’m taking. There’s no problem.”
Shao Qingyuan frowned, but he didn’t say anything.
Gu Yundong sighed. “If you leave, what will happen to the family? What about the workshop? What about the shop? Aunt Ke is not from the village after all. She is not familiar with many things. The Tong family are servants. Although the people in the village don’t say anything, there are many people who don’t take them seriously. Mr. Qin lives in the county city. If anything happens, he won’t be able to rush over in time. As long as you’re here, I won’t have anything to worry about.”
As long as you’re here, I won’t have anything to worry about.
Shao Qingyuan’s breathing suddenly stopped, and his heart raced.
He lowered his eyes slightly and smiled bitterly.
This person was always capable. He had already made up his mind to follow her no matter what she said, but he was convinced with just one sentence.
He really wanted to seal her mouth.
“Okay.” In the end, he agreed. “I’ll take care of your family and protect your siblings.”
Gu Yundong was telling the truth. With Shao Qingyuan’s personality, identity, and ability, she was most assured to leave the family matters to him. Without Shao Qingyuan, she was not sure if she could go away so firmly.
It was also at this moment that she realized that she seemed to have placed too much importance on him.
Gu Yundong could not help but rub the space between her eyebrows. She thought that she had to sort out some feelings and think them through.
She took out a lot of banknotes for Shao Qingyuan. “You have to accept this money this time. The orchard will require a lot of money to buy seedlings. Also, you have to come to the workshop to distribute the wages. After the Lantern Festival, you have to find Uncle Feng to build your own workshop. I’ve already drawn the specific blueprints. I’ll give them to you later. You and Uncle Feng can discuss it.”
Gu Yundong looked up. “In short, you’re in charge of everything here.”
As they were leaving tomorrow, Gu Yundong spoke a lot.
After Shao Qingyuan finished giving instructions, she went to the village chief Chen Liang’s house and said that she would be away for a while.
After that, she returned to pack her luggage.
Actually, there wasn’t much. There were only some clothes and shoes in her bag. The rest were all in her spatial storage.
After going through everything, she returned to her room to sleep.
The next morning, she got up early again and went to the kitchen to make a lot of good food.
Then, she took some and put them into her spatial storage without anyone knowing. Her spatial storage could preserve freshness, so she could eat warm food on the way.
She was not in a hurry to leave. After the two children got up and bade them farewell, she brought Madam Yang into the carriage under their reluctant gazes.
Madam Yang didn’t know what to do at first. It was only after Aunt Ke patiently explained it to her last night that she vaguely understood half of it.
Tong Shuitao had wanted to follow them to take care of their clothes, food, accommodation, and transportation, but she was rejected by Gu Yundong.
She would definitely have to use the spatial storage a lot along the way. Forget it. Besides, she and Madam Yang were already missing from the team who processed white sugar. Every worker counted.
When Gu Yundong drove the carriage to the county city, the city gate had just opened..
