Feng Daneng coughed lightly and looked a little embarrassed. He said in a low voice, “I was too happy just now and didn’t pay attention. I didn’t consider your situation. Your house is good, but it will cost a lot of money to build.”

Gu Yundong was stunned for a moment before he smiled. “1 know. You can build it first. You don’t have to worry about money.”

In the countryside, a family of four or five would usually only need more than 20 taels of silver to build a slightly better house.

But Gu Yundong wanted a green brick tiled house, and there were many requirements. The renovation alone was different from the village chief’s green brick tiled house. The labor fee was not low, and the area was quite large, so it could not be built without 70 to 80 taels.

Gu Yundong’s budget was 100 taels. Even if she did not have it now, it would take at least a month to build a house. During this period of time, she could always think of a way to earn some money.

If she really could not earn it, she could postpone buying the furniture inside and lay the bricks on the ground later. At the moment, she still had more than 60 taels of silver on hand, which was enough.

Hearing her say this, Feng Daneng was relieved.

It seemed that the Gu family was indeed wealthy. Otherwise, her father would not have been able to read, right?

Gu Yundong discussed the ingredients with Feng Daneng again. Madam Zhou had already called them for lunch.

Madam Zhou had brought Madam Yang along with her to cook. Yesterday, Gu Yundong had given Chen Liang silver so that Madam Zhou had a good impression of her. It did not cost much to have a meal. Besides, they had not finished talking.

After eating, she gave Gu Yundong a big basket of vegetables to bring back.

Poor Madam Fang and her daughter. They were still waiting for Gu Yundong to go home and buy the vegetables in their field.

Gu Yundong looked at the basket that was enough for her family to eat for two days. He raised his eyebrows and smiled at Madam Zhou. “Aunt, are you afraid that I won’t have any vegetables to eat?”

Madam Zhou was stunned and immediately felt a little awkward. “I was just afraid that you’ve just arrived and didn’t prepare anything. You don’t have a vegetable field. These were all planted by my family. There’s a lot of them. It’s not troublesome.”

Gu Yundong accepted the vegetables. Chen Liang and his wife were not bad.

However, there were some things that had to be made clear. “I know even if Auntie doesn’t say it. You’re afraid that Auntie Fang and I will have a problem, right?”

Madam Zhou was a little surprised. It had only been a night, but the Gu family already knew what kind of person Madam Fang was?

“Let me tell you the truth. It hasn’t been easy for Second Brother’s wife to raise their daughter alone all these years. They’ve suffered a lot, so it’s inevitable that they’re a little stubborn. It’s not a big problem. After all, your Uncle Chen is a man. It’s not easy for him to get too close to this sister-in-law, and he doesn’t know what she’s like now. Back then, when he arranged for your family to live there, it was because there was really no other suitable family. Secondly, he wanted to take care of the mother and daughter and let them earn a few copper coins.”

Gu Yundong nodded. “1 know, but I’ll make it clear to Auntie first. If others treat me well, I’ll return the favor, but if they scheme against me, 1 won’t be polite either.”

After saying that, she nodded at Madam Zhou and turned to leave with the basket.

Madam Zhou sighed. She had thought that Gu Yundong was easy to talk to, but now it seemed that she was not someone who could be taken advantage of.

Everything else was fine, but she was afraid that if the two of them really fought, it would be her man who would be in a difficult position.

Madam Zhou shook her head and went back to tell Chen Liang this. It could be considered a warning in advance.

On the other side, when Gu Yundong brought the three of them home, she was surprised to see a man standing in the courtyard.

When the man saw them, he was only stunned for a moment before nodding in greeting..
