Chapter 609: Qiao'er Learns to Read
Gu Yunxi sat in Yuan's house for a while. He was worried that if he stayed there all the time, it would affect the work of Yuan's father and son, so he stood up and said goodbye after sitting for a while.
Uncle Yuan and sister-in-law Yuan kept trying to persuade her to stay and have lunch before going back.
Gu Yunxi smiled and said, "Aunt, sister-in-law, Yunle is still at home. I promised her that I would go home for lunch at noon. Next time, I will definitely eat here."
"When the time comes, my aunt and sister-in-law should not despise me for eating for free!"
Seeing that Gu Yunxi had said this, Aunt Yuan and Sister-in-law Yuan had no choice but to nod and said, "Okay, then be careful on the road."
"I'll tell you as soon as the sofa is ready!"
The most important thing now is to make the sofa. Aunt Yuan doesn't want to delay Gu Yunxi any longer. After all, the cushion was made at the Lu family.
Yunxi is going home now. Aunt Yuan thinks that she is going to help Yunle make cushions!
Gu Yunxi smiled, got on the carriage and headed for the town.
Two days ago, I asked Shopkeeper Wu's brother-in-law to start renovating the shop he bought. Now I have to go over and take a look.
When I arrived at the newly bought furniture shop in town, I saw several workers busy at work.
Shopkeeper Wu's brother-in-law, Shopkeeper Xiao Yu, was busy directing the workers to work. When he saw Gu Yunxi coming from afar, he immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Mrs. Lu, you're here?"
Gu Yunxi smiled and said, "Well, I have nothing to do, so I came to see if there is anything I can help you with?"
"No, no. If I need anything, I will definitely come to you first." Shopkeeper Xiao Yu smiled flatteringly.
"I have been doing this for eight to ten years. Madam Lu, rest assured, I will definitely do it for you!"
Hearing what Shopkeeper Xiao Yu said, Gu Yunxi smiled, walked into the shop and took a look. Indeed, he saw that the workers were working in an orderly manner.
After looking at the shop, she didn't stay for long. She asked He Dachun to go to the market to buy some vegetables and then hurried back home.
When they got home, Widow Cao and Yun Le were still busy sewing cushions, while Qiao'er was reading a storybook beside them with great interest.
Gu Yunxi was a little surprised and asked, "Hey, Qiao'er, can you read?"
Qiao'er nodded innocently: "I can read. Mom taught me!"
Her tone sounded as if being literate was a very common thing, which made Gu Yunxi even more suspicious of Widow Cao's identity.
Widow Cao was originally sewing cushions. When she heard her daughter's words, her heart skipped a beat and she looked over hastily, with a rare flash of panic in her eyes.
However, when she saw that Gu Yunxi did not ask any further questions, she felt a little relieved.
After thinking for a while, Widow Cao took the initiative to explain: "When I was young, I knew a few words. When I had nothing to do, I taught Qiaoer. Qiaoer is smart and can learn it quickly!"
Gu Yunxi smiled when he heard this and said, "Qiao'er is very smart, different from other girls in the village."
"It's good to know how to read. The more you know, the more you will understand things and the more you will achieve in the future."
Widow Cao nodded and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, she continued to sew the cushions. Gu Yunxi asked He Dachun's wife to make lunch, while she and Qiao'er were reading the storybook.
From time to time, she also taught Qiaoer to read.
Qiao'er is indeed very smart. When she encounters unfamiliar words, she will remember them after Gu Yunxi explains them.
This made Gu Yunxi even more surprised, and she thought, Qiao'er might not be real, and not the child of Widow Cao's husband?
Although Widow Cao had never seen her husband, she heard that he was just an ordinary farmer.
Previously, when he went hunting in the mountains, his stomach was pierced by the long tusks of a wild boar and he died on the spot.
Look at Qiaoer's grandmother and her uncle and aunt's family. They can't read a single word and all they talk about is losing money.
How could such a family give birth to a girl as intelligent and pretty as Qiao'er?
While Qiao'er was learning to read seriously, Gu Yunxi quickly glanced at Widow Cao. Seeing how seriously and attentively Widow Cao was working, Gu Yunxi always felt that there were many secrets hidden behind Widow Cao.
However, before she had time to think about it, someone came.
"Madam, the young master and young mistress of the He family are here. They are standing at the door. Do you want to let them in?" He Dachun asked in a low voice.
When they went to the steamed bun shop in Yang County that day, although He Dachun didn't know what had happened, judging from Gu Yunxi's reaction, something unpleasant must have happened.
Gu Yunxi is not a mean master, He Dachun knows this better than anyone else.
Therefore, the problem must be with the sister of the young lady of the He family. After all, the one guarding the door of the bun shop at that time was Xiao Wei's sister, Wei Zhendi.
Gu Yunxi was stunned. He's cousin didn't come yesterday, but finally came today.
If he didn't come for several days in a row, she would think about not letting them continue to run the bun shop.
After all, the two families had verbally agreed that the steamed bun business could only be done by He's cousin and his wife, Xiao Wei, and no one else could do it.
The filling of the buns is not ordinary stuff. It is the exclusive secret recipe of the Lu family. The Lu family does not trust anyone else.
"He Dachun, let He's cousin and cousin-in-law come in and take them to the main hall."
Upon hearing this, He Dachun hurried out, welcomed He Jiaxing and Xiao Wei in, and took them to the main hall first.
Gu Yunxi put down the notebook and followed.
"Sister-in-law Yunxi, you're really back!" He Jiaxing stood up excitedly and greeted Gu Yunxi when he saw her come in.
Xiao Wei was equally happy and immediately greeted with a smile.
When Gu Yunxi saw them, he didn't put on airs and said with a smile, "Cousin, cousin, how come you have time to come here?"
The steamed bun shop's business has always been good. At this time, he should still be busy in the steamed bun shop.
He Jiaxing's face looked a little strange when he heard this. He stammered and glanced at Xiao Wei.
Seeing this, Xiao Wei hurriedly asked, "Yunxi, did you come to the bun shop yesterday?"
She asked this without waiting for Gu Yunxi's response, and continued: "I was sick a few days ago, so I asked my sister from my natal family to come to the bun shop and help for a few days..."
"She told me last night when she got home that Butler He had come with you. She didn't know who you were at the time and thought you were here to buy buns, so she didn't let you go into the back of the shop."
Xiao Wei looked at Gu Yunxi eagerly and said, "When I heard about this yesterday, I scolded my sister severely. She has never done anything before and has no sense of judgment at all..."
He Jiaxing was also a little uneasy, and hurriedly said: "Yunxi, look at this matter..."
