Chapter 578: Aunt Tao

Chapter 578 Aunt Tao

“Second sister, you eat this. This is called almond cake. It’s sweet and fragrant. It’s delicious.” Brother Cheng handed a piece of almond cake to Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli took it and took a bite: "It's just okay. Second sister will make you something more delicious another day."

 Brother Cheng's eyes lit up and he smiled happily: "Second sister, you must keep your word. Remember to prepare delicious food for Brother Cheng."

After seeing Gu Jinli nodding, he took the almond cake and distributed it to the third grandfather, third grandmother, Cui and Gu Dashan: "Mom and dad, you eat it, it's delicious."

 Speaking, he put the almond cake into Cui's mouth.

Ms. Cui smiled and ate the almond cake, and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief: "This thing is littered, be careful when eating it, don't leave it everywhere, your clothes are newly made for studying. It cost half a tael of silver, so it’s expensive.”

 In the past, when I was in my hometown, my family would spend more than ten cents to buy other people's old clothes and wear them back, and they would never wear a set of clothes worth half a tael.

 Brother Cheng smiled and nodded at Mrs. Cui, then ran to be hugged by Gu Jinan, but Gu Jinan pushed him away: "Can you do your homework? You can just play, if you can't finish writing, you can't sleep."

Mr. Xia is strict with Brother Cheng and has heavy homework. Brother Cheng has a lot of homework to do every day after he returns home.

As soon as he mentioned this, Brother Cheng burst into tears. He hugged Gu Jinan and said, "Big brother is the best. Brother Cheng wants to learn to read from big brother, so he won't go to school."

 He thought that going to school was like Wang Geer and others, with many people studying together, but he was the only child in Mr. Xia’s family, and he had endless homework to do every day. He fell asleep while writing last night.

Gu Jinli felt a little distressed and said to Brother Cheng: "I won't write until I finish it. Mr. Xia doesn't dare to beat you if you can't hand in your homework."

That's right, Mr. Xia didn't dare to hit Brother Cheng because of his status. At most, he only dared to punish him by facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes.

But Gu Jinan said: "We can't spoil him like this. We have to let him slowly adapt to school."

 He pulled Cheng Geer out of his arms and said, "Go back to the house and write."

 Brother Cheng is about to cry: "I can't finish writing..."

Gu Jinan looked at the little guy's tearful look and felt helpless: "Write first. Write as much as you can. I really can't finish it. Tomorrow, big brother will talk to Mr. Xia and see if he can leave you less homework. .”

 Brother Cheng was happy, put away his tears, and ran back to the house to write.

Mr. Ke Xia assigned too much homework. Gu Jinan peeked at it secretly. For a child as young as Cheng Geer, it was indeed too much to finish.

 The next day when he went to take Brother Cheng home, he told him about the matter.

After listening to this, Mr. Xia looked at the homework done by Brother Cheng, and finally decided to cut it in half... The child was too young, and learning was too **** the body, and he was still too anxious.

 Brother Cheng was very happy to learn that his homework had been reduced by half, and he became close to Mr. Xia again.

 After Cheng Geer got used to school, a group of people from old doctor Wu came to Gu Jinli.

There were quite a few people coming, twenty-three of them, led by an old nun.

 with the surname Tao, she looks to be almost 60 years old. She is a very experienced and well-behaved person.

There is also Uncle Dai in his early forties and Aunt Hong in her early thirties, who are Grandma Tao's right-hand men.

When Gu Jinli learned the news and went to pick him up, Grandma Tao was talking to old doctor Wu with tears in her eyes. When he saw her coming, he hurriedly led everyone to get up and knelt down to her: "Old slave, pay homage to my little boss. Gu Jinli hurriedly helped her up and said, "I can't help it. Get up quickly."

Old doctor Wu said: "This girl doesn't like to kneel down and thank you. As long as you are loyal, she will treat you sincerely. Get up quickly."

After hearing this, Grandma Tao and the others stood up one after another.

Old doctor Wu took out a box and handed it to Gu Jinli: "This is the deed of sale of Aunt Tao and the others. They were exchanged for red deeds at the government. If you take it, they will be your servants from now on, and you will decide whether they live or die."

Gu Jinli took it and read the deed of betrayal one by one.

Old Doctor Wu then talked about the origins of Aunt Tao and the others: "They used to follow me, and then they followed your Aunt Wu, but they came back more than 20 years ago... They have suffered some crimes, but don't worry, Their current identities are visible to the public and will not cause you any trouble."

Old Doctor Wu was afraid that Gu Jinli would be worried, so he told the story of Aunt Tao and the others in detail.

After hearing this, Gu Jinli felt relieved and said to Dr. Wu, "I understand what you mean. Don't worry. As long as the Gu family remains undefeated, they will have a place to retire."

After hearing this, Old Doctor Wu nodded gratefully and asked Kan Liu and Mutong to drive Grandma Tao and others to Gu's Pharmaceutical Workshop in the Xuanhufang mule cart.

Kan Liu was very strange today. The mule cart he was driving almost overturned, which scared Gu Jinli. But Mu Tong looked like he was watching a good show, and Gu Jinli immediately understood...there was gossip.

The people in the village are already used to the Gu Jinli family buying people from time to time, and they don't feel new about the arrival of Aunt Tao and the others. They just feel that the Gu family has really become prosperous, and people are buying batch after batch.

 Gu Jinli felt a lot more relaxed after having people like Aunt Tao. What surprised her even more was that Uncle Dai turned out to be a doctor. With him around, the pharmaceutical business was easier.

Grandma Tao was a strong person in charge of general affairs. She started visiting the workshop on the day she arrived. On the third day, under Gu Jinli's instructions, she began to reorganize the pharmaceutical workshop and divided it into four small production yards.

 A small courtyard is used to make mosquito coils and is managed by Ye Dakou.

 A small courtyard is used for making tooth powder and is managed by Ah Shi. Ah Shi had caught the eye of Grandma Tao. Grandma Tao said that although Ah Shi didn't understand medicine, he was someone who knew how to arrange things and was a good steward.

A yard is used to make scar removal cream, and it is temporarily managed by Kan Liu. If there is a young boy suitable for this job in the future, he will take over from Kan Liu.

In addition to making scar removal cream, Kan Liu also taught Qiu Lang and the others how to box. Gu Jinli bought Qiu Lang and the others not just for work, but also for them to work on a daily basis and be able to pick up a knife to protect their master in times of war.

 A yard is used to make convenience medicine for future use. Uncle Dai is in charge of this.

Uncle Mutong is in charge of the purchase and shipment of the entire pharmaceutical workshop, while Aunt Hong is in charge of the trivial matters in the pharmaceutical workshop, as well as the girls' food, clothing and housing.

 Aunt Tao is in charge, and all men and women in the pharmaceutical workshop can come to her if they have any problems.

Ye Jingzi continued to stay with Gu Jinli in the pharmacy and continued to be Gu Jinli's deputy.

After Grandma Tao sorted things out, the entire pharmaceutical workshop became smoother, and Gu Jinli no longer had to worry about managing trivial matters.

And Gu Jinli also discovered that the person who made Uncle Kan Liu stupid seemed to be Aunt Hong. He stuttered when speaking in front of Aunt Hong...Uncle, you are already in your thirties, do you need to be shy when you like a girl?

Mama Tao did not hide it from Gu Jinli and told her about Kan Liu and Aunt Hong.

The two of them had already discussed getting married before, but something happened to Aunt Wu, and in the end they had to live apart. Now that they meet again, she wants them to finally get married, but whether it can happen or not depends on it. Their creation.

 Gu Jinli’s eyes lit up: “This also has gossip, it’s old, it’s very mellow.”
