Chapter 321 - Setting Off For Provincial Capital (1)
“Father, there’s a letter from Second Uncle’s family. They got a promotion!”
Gu Qingyao was elated when she saw the letter!
She no longer remembered if her second uncle got a promotion at this time in the previous lifetime and only knew that her fourth cousin, Gu Jinfeng, came back to accompany her.
At this instant, Gu Yunshen was working in the field thus Gu Qingyao ran with the letter to find him.
“Second Uncle, Second Aunt and Second Cousin received a promotion in the past two months. They only wrote back after it was confirmed. Only Fourth Brother remains in his original post. He is young so it’s not that fast to be promoted. Second Aunt transferred to work in a department store and it will be much more convenient to purchase items in the future.”
Gu Yunshen was delighted when he read the letter.
The people who worked together in the field had a different view of the Gu family.
The younger ones of the Gu family had been doing well outside and they got a promotion again recently?
The second son’s wife was even working in a department store?
Many products could be bought in advance there!
It was extremely convenient.
Congratulations rang in the surroundings and some people even seemed to want to curry favor.
Gu Qingyao returned home to unwrap the packages. There were some food, cloth and a pair of leather shoes which Gu Jinhang bought for her.
One letter was specially written to her from her second and fourth cousins.
I am Second Cousin: I did not make it back in time for your engagement and did not give you any gifts. This leather shoe is a gift for you to make up for it. Here’s another hundred yuan. Buy anything you need.
I am Fourth Cousin: Here’s another fifty yuan. Take care of yourself.
Together: Don’t care about the money that Mo Beihan gave you. Your brothers will give you even more!
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Were her cousins challenging Mo Beihan?
She knew that Second Uncle’s family was relatively wealthy.
The family of four all had a job and their salary was very high. They belonged to the high-income group.
Furthermore, there were no kids at home and everyone had jobs, so there was a lot of money saved.
Her second and fourth cousins were definitely the wealthiest out of all five elder cousins. Especially, Fourth Cousin, Gu Jinfeng, who had the most flexible mind and greatest interest in money.
As for Second Cousin, although he was intelligent as well, most of his time was spent on work. However, as he started work early and had a high post, his salary was still higher than Fourth Cousin.
Had it been convenient to send a watch from a long distance, Gu Qingyao believed that Second Cousin might buy her an imported watch as well.
Gu Qingyao’s heart was blissed-out after she finished reading the letter. My dear cousins, in the future, I will definitely lead you all to make big bucks, marry the prettiest lady and raise the smartest kids. Hahaha!
Accompanying the letter from Second Uncle’s family, there was also a letter from Third Uncle.
Compared to the news from Second Uncle’s family, the letter from Third Uncle’s family was not any good news but it was not considered anything major.
Third Aunt, Zhou Ping, fell and injured her leg hence she is unable to walk for the time being. Third Uncle happened to be very busy with work recently and there were still two young ones at home with no one available to look after them. Thus, they hoped that Gu Yunshuang could go down and help out.
Gu Yunshuang was divorced and was in her natal home with her child. Apart from helping to look after the kids, they wanted Gu Yunshuang to go over also because it could help her lie low instead of being surrounded by gossipers in their hometown.
However, Gu Yunshuang did not wish to go.
She looked at everyone and said, “It’s not good for me to go! The autumn harvest is coming soon and everyone will have to work in the field soon. I still can earn some work points if I’m home but if I go there, what about the work at home? There are so many people at home to feed! I can’t completely rely on their salary.”
