Gu Yunxi smiled and said, "Aunt Lin, this is the betrothal gift my father gave you, just accept it."

"It's not expensive, just consider it as a little gift from my father. When you two live together in the future, my father will also expect you to take good care of him, right?"

After hearing what Gu Yunxi said, Mrs. Lin felt less frightened.

But, I still felt a little embarrassed because I accepted a gift from my stepdaughter without preparing anything.

"Dad, please tell Aunt Lin about our family situation. I'll go take a look at the new house first."

Boss Gu smiled and nodded. After Gu Yunxi left, he told Madam Lin everything about the division of the family.

"The new house over there is the land Yunxi bought for me, and she also hired someone to build it for me. When the new house is completed, we will move in."

Hearing what Boss Gu said, Mrs. Lin was even more shocked, and for the first time she became curious about her stepdaughter Gu Yunxi.

"Well, head of the family, Yun Xi, isn't she married? If she brings the money back to build a house, won't her husband's family say anything?"

In Mrs. Lin's opinion, once her daughter is married, she belongs to another family. How can she take things from her husband's family back to her parents' home?

Boss Gu explained with a smile: "It's okay, Yunxi's husband's family is now in the capital, and Yunxi is the head of their family."

Hearing what Boss Gu said, Madam Lin was even more shocked. Beijing, Beijing, my God, what kind of family did she marry into?

The stepdaughter's husband's family is now in the capital! It's so far away that she dare not even think about it!

When Boss Gu saw her like this, he knew that the matchmaker must not have told her about Gu Yunxi before, so Boss Gu slowly told her about the Lu family.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin was completely stunned.

She accidentally found such a family, and her stepdaughter's husband turned out to be an official!

No wonder. When she first met Gu Yunxi, she felt that Gu Yunxi was different from other girls in the village. Her temperament was not something that ordinary people could have.

Now that I know, I feel like this is how it should be.

Smiling, Madam Lin looked at Boss Gu and suddenly felt that she was not worthy of him.

Boss Gu looked at her reaction and comforted her, "You don't have to think too much. From now on, we will live together. Yunxi will return to the capital in a few days."

"You can find out some of my past... things with just a little inquiry. I am very grateful that you don't despise me and are willing to live with me."

"No, no, I should thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even have a home." Mrs. Lin said quickly.

The two looked at each other, felt a little embarrassed, and burst out laughing.

Since the two of them were just living together, Mrs. Lin didn't have a proper family, so she didn't visit her parents every three days.

That day, Gu Yunxi brought Gu Yunle back, had dinner with them, and then took Madam Lin to the construction site to check on the progress of the new house.

"Aunt Lin, I may not have much time to come and see this house in the future. Come and see it when you have time. I have arranged for He Dachun and a few aunts to take care of the cooking at the construction site. You don't have to worry about it."

"Please take care of my father. This money is for you to buy food. My father is in such a bad condition that he can't farm. You can rent out the land you have been allocated."

Gu Yunxi handed over a purse containing ten taels of silver. This amount of silver was not much for her, but for Madam Lin and Boss Gu, it was enough to last for a long time.

Gu Yunxi did not plan to give them too much money, lest they develop a habit of doing nothing in the future.

Madam Lin first looked at Boss Gu, and only accepted the silver after seeing that he had no objection.

"Yunxi, are you going back to the capital? Well, you've been back for so long, and the Hong brothers miss you." Boss Gu murmured.

Gu Yunxi smiled and nodded, saying, "Well, I've been delayed for too long. Ah Chuan has urged me to go back to the capital in the next two days."

"Aunt Lin, remember to boil my father's medicine on time. If there is no medicine left, tell He Dachun and ask him to help get it."

Madam Lin nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, Yunxi, don't worry."

To her, the present life is like heaven. She has a home, food and drink, and she doesn't have to endure the bullying of others.

As long as the head of the family is there, she will have a good life. If the head of the family is gone, her family will be gone.

She must serve the mistress of the household well!

Gu Yunxi explained everything clearly, and when he returned home, he roughly calculated the wages for building the house and told He Dachun about it, asking He Dachun to settle the wages for the workers and craftsmen.

He Dachun nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, Madam. If I have nothing else to do, I will go to the construction site more often and make sure everything is done well."

Gu Yunxi is still very confident in He Dachun's ability to get things done.

Gu Yunle was packing up his things and handed over the task of making cushions to Widow Cao and the new manager of the Ten Embroidery Workshop.

The new shopkeeper of Shixiufang is an acquaintance of Wang Jiaozhen. Gu Yunxi specially sought her out for cooperation some time ago to make custom cushions.

After the agreement was signed, the owner of the Tenth Embroidery Workshop sent several embroiderers to learn how to make cushions from Widow Cao. Now, they have finally learned how to make cushions.

Seeing that the matter of the cushion had been settled, Gu Yunxi was completely relieved.

The next day, she went to Yuan's house early and told the father and son about the situation. She said she was going back to the capital.

The Yuan family father and son were very surprised, but they could understand, and asked: "Yunxi, when are you leaving? I'm a little worried. Can our furniture shop be OK without you?"

Gu Yunxi smiled and pointed at Yuan Gangzi, saying, "Uncle Yuan, Gangzi has been learning from me for so long, there won't be any problems."

"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, go to He Dachun to solve them. If He Dachun can't solve them, ask someone to write to me."

If it was an emergency, Gu Yunxi also told He Dachun to ask Manager Wu for help.

For her sake, Shopkeeper Wu would help with common matters, but for extraordinary matters, he couldn't help even if he wanted to.

After hearing what Gu Yunxi said, the Yuan family father and son breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Yuan Gangzi put his hands on his hips and said with a smile: "Hey, Dad, Grandpa, why are you like this? Why don't you believe in my ability?"

"Aunt Yun Xi said that I'm fine, so I must be fine!"

Seeing Gangzi's confident look, Aunt Yuan came out of the house and couldn't help laughing: "You, you are so arrogant, you don't even know what humility is."

Yuan Gangzi chuckled and said, "Grandma, you don't know this, do you? We businessmen need to be thick-skinned and confident!"

"We don't steal or rob, so what's wrong with being more confident? If I'm more confident, others will be more willing to believe that the things in our shop are good! Besides, our goods are good to begin with!"

Gu Yunxi pursed her lips and watched the Yuan family members joking with each other. She felt relieved. With Gangzi and the others around, there would probably be no problems with the furniture shop.
