Chapter 264: Lake Cloud View
Chapter 264 Lake and Cloud View
Gu Dexing was really scared this time.
Just like Gu Yumei was not convinced by Gu Jinli, he was also not convinced by Gu Jinan. He always wanted to break up with Gu Jinan, but this time, he really knew the gap between his family and Gu Jinan's family.
Three grandpas are right, the workshop was started by Gu Jinli, and their family just got free money.
Since it’s free money, you have to understand the rules. If you dare to do something that harms the workshop and several families, don’t blame Third Grandpa and the others for being ruthless.
Gu Yumei curled up on the ground, unable to move in pain. Seeing everyone in the family kneeling down to beg Third Grandpa, she was also afraid that she would be kicked out of the workshop, so she endured the pain, crawled over, knelt beside Gu Dexing, and begged: "Third Grandpa... I know Wrong...please spare me this time...wuwuwu..."
The third grandpa didn’t look at her and just told Gu Jinan: “Go and call all the adults. There is no need to call your parents.”
Gu Jinan was stunned for a moment, but still ran out to call someone.
The whole family knew that something was going on at Gu Dafu's house. When they saw Gu Jinan calling for someone, they didn't dare to delay and hurriedly followed him to Gu Dafu's house.
After several families entered the door, they were all stunned when they saw the injured Gu Yumei and Gu Dafu's family kneeling on the ground. It was Elder Qin who was the first to ask: "Brother Gu, what happened?"
Third Grandpa told them everything about Gu Yumei's private interactions with Zou Yuwan's maid, the collection of Zou Yuwan's things, and the withdrawal of shares.
After hearing this, the faces of the adults all darkened. This Gu Yumei is too ignorant. But if Gu Dafu and his family were really driven out of the workshop, they would be a little intolerant.
After all, we escaped together and lived life and death together...
…
The third grandfather and Gu Jinan didn’t return from Gu Dafu’s house until it was completely dark and told everyone the outcome of the matter.
After several family discussions, Gu Dafu and his family were not expelled from the workshop in the end, but were fined two hundred taels of silver, which would be deducted from the workshop's dividends.
In the past three months, the money earned from the tofu stall will not be distributed to Gu Dafu's family. The family will have to live a hard life for a period of time to remember it.
The Gu Dafu family also wrote a letter of commitment, promising that the next time they find someone in their family doing something that harms the workshop and several families, they will not only quit the workshop, but also compensate the workshop for 10,000 taels of losses.
Because this result was decided after discussion by several adults, several adults had to provide guarantees and write a letter of commitment. From now on, the remaining six families, no matter which family does something detrimental to the workshop, will also withdraw. workshop, and compensate the workshop 10,000 taels of silver.
Grandpa San handed six fingerprinted commitment letters to Gu Jinli and sighed: "Xiaoyu, Grandpa San can't bear it... I can't watch the wealthy family lose their livelihood because of Sister Mei."
Third Grandpa thought about the death of Village Chief Gu, the hardships of escaping from famine, and the good life that the family had to live, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
He promised: "Don't worry, Third Grandpa will be soft-hearted this time. Next time this happens again, Third Grandpa will drive away those who want to harm the workshop even if he dies!"
The third grandma wiped away her tears and said: "Xiaoyu, don't blame your third grandpa... People tend to become soft-hearted when they get old, and they are always unwilling to finish things in one go."
Gu Jinli knew from the moment Third Grandpa didn’t let her family go to Gu Dafu’s house that Third Grandpa just wanted to teach Gu Dafu’s family a lesson and would not drive Gu Dafu’s family out of the workshop.
However, it’s pretty good that Third Grandpa can get back these six letters of commitment.
In the past, it was just a stall, a small business, and it was nothing if several families were mixed together. Now that the workshop has been opened and the business has grown, some things need to be prepared in advance to prevent someone from the family from being bribed, harming the workshop and damaging her interests.
These six letters of commitment and the ten thousand taels of silver written on them are a huge mountain that weighs on several families, allowing them to stay alert at all times and not be deceived.
"Third Grandpa, I understand." Gu Jinli took the six commitment letters, read them, and put them away. "Xiaoyu..." The third grandfather looked at Gu Jinli. The boy had forgiven him and didn't blame him for making his own decisions.
Gu Jinli looked at Third Grandpa’s tired look and said to Third Grandma: “Third Grandma, it’s getting late. We have to go to Daxing Town tomorrow, so let’s eat quickly.”
“Hey, let’s eat and eat. Old man, please get out of the way. Don’t stay here. We need to open the table to eat.”
After the family finished eating, several families came to her house and began to calculate and divide the money.
Gu Dafu's family didn't come, and the third grandfather didn't let them come. He said that Gu Jinli must still be angry and asked them to come back in a few days to apologize and not to be an eyesore.
The accounts for that night were calculated by Gu Jinan.
Because of Gu Yumei's incident, the atmosphere was a bit gloomy tonight. After the families distributed the money, they went home.
However, because of this incident, several families understood the need to take good care of their own families, lest anyone in the family was bribed by others and ruined the business of the workshop.
This is what Gu Jinli wants. There are too many families, and no one knows when someone will take advantage of them. You must always be vigilant.
With those six letters of commitment in hand, she slept quite soundly that night.
Gu Yumei was miserable. Not only was she beaten all over, but she was also unable to eat. She knelt in the main room all night. She got a high fever in the middle of the night and fainted. Gu Dafu's family was in chaos again, and Mrs. Chen's curses could be heard. The news reached Gu Jinli's house.
No matter how noisy Gu Dafu's family was, Gu Jinli slept soundly. She got up before dawn the next day and started packing her things, preparing to go to Huyunguan in Daxing Town.
The third grandma knew that they were going to find someone, so she prepared a lot of things early in the morning.
"Those are all Qing cultivators who don't like money. If you bring more food, the masters will be happy." The third grandma asked Gu Dashan to bring three boxes of white tofu, a basket of fried bean dregs cakes, a bag of millet, and ten kilograms of rice. White flour, a basket of cabbage, and a basket of sweet potatoes were all loaded onto the mule cart.
Gu Jinli also loaded a jar of soybean oil he made into the mule cart.
People who cultivated in the Qing Dynasty did not eat meat and meat, but now they eat meat and oil. People in the Taoist temple cook with boiled vegetables, which are very good at scraping the intestines. If you send a jar of soybean oil, the masters can eat oily food. Meals.
After working hard for half an hour, when Gu Dashan and Gu Jinan came back from the workshop, they called Gu Daya, picked up Mr. Qin, and drove the mule cart towards Daxing Town.
There were only Taoist nuns in Huyun Temple, and men were not allowed to enter. Everyone was worried about Gu Jinli entering the Taoist temple alone, so they asked Gu Daya to go with them.
And Mr. Qin is good at boxing and kicking, so it will be safer to take him with him on the road.
The mule cart drove along for more than an hour and finally arrived at Daxing Town. After another half hour of running, it finally arrived at Xiaoya Mountain.
Xiaoya Mountain is a small word, but it is a big mountain. At a glance, the mountains are high in the clouds, shrouded in white mist, and the ancient trees are green.
There was a small village at the foot of the mountain. Gu Jinan drove the mule cart into the village and asked an old farmer: "Uncle, does Huyun Temple go this way?"
The old farmer was about to go to work in the fields. Hearing this, he said, "Yes, are you going to see the doctor?"
Twelve thousand words, to be completed. PS: I’m looking for various names for people, the kind that are relatively vulgar. The author is a scumbag and can’t afford to think of new names every day.
