Chapter 158: Finding Work for Zhuangzi

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhuangzi looked at her uneasily. He looked around, as if he was looking for an opportunity to escape at any time.

“W-What are you going to tell me? I’ll return that silver to you soon. Give me a few more days. No, give me another—no, two months.”

Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. “Don’t worry, I’m not asking you for the debt. I just want to ask you for a favor.”

“A favor?” Zhuangzi blinked in shock. She still needed his help?

For some reason, he felt a little proud.

“That’s right. If you agree, you don’t have to return the money.”

“Alright, alright, alright. What favor are you talking about? I agree.”

She hadn’t even said anything about the favor, but he dared to agree so quickly. Wasn’t he afraid that she would make him commit murder and arson?

Gu Yundong glanced at him and lowered her voice slightly. “Help me keep an eye on Chen Yulan and her mother. See what they have done and who they are meeting.” fr(e)ewebnov(e)l.com

The moment she saw Zhuangzi, she felt that he was the most suitable candidate.

He was a hooligan to begin with. He usually had nothing to do and did not work in the fields. Even if he wandered around the village all day, no one would find it strange.

Moreover, Zhuangzi was quite smart.

At the very least, he understood the situation better than Hu Liang.

Zhuangzi was a little confused. Keep an eye on Chen Yulan and her mother? Why?

Could it be that… Madam Fang was finally having an affair with another man? Were they going to catch them in the act?

Zhuangzi was a little excited. He was happy to do this. He had thought that there was something huge he needed to do. It was such a small matter.

In order to add some gossip to the village, Zhuangzi expressed that it would not be a problem even if he was not allowed to drink or sleep.

“For how long?”

Gu Yundong did not know why he was so excited. “A month.”

Based on her understanding of Gu Xian’er, if she was in cahoots with Chen Yulan, she would not be able to resist the urge to do something bad within a month.

Gu Xian’er was in the Peng Residence, so it wasn’t easy to keep an eye on her. Similarly, Gu Xian’er didn’t have many chances to plot against her.

As for Chen Yulan, it was enough for Zhuangzi to keep an eye on her.

Zhuangzi quickly calculated in his heart. Yes, it was only a month, but he could erase the debt of more than one tael of silver. It was much more profitable than him working outside.

Moreover, it was farm time now. The strong laborers of the various villages had gone out to work. It was too difficult for a hooligan like him, who could not lift anything heavy, to find work.

After talking to Zhuangzi, Gu Yundong let him go.

Zhuangzi was also dedicated to his work. When he returned, he went to squat near Madam Fang’s house.

As soon as he left, Madam Zhou and the rest also came out of the Zeng family home. The cutlery and other things had already been cleaned up. A portion of the leftovers was left behind, and Gu Yundong had let them split it up and leave.

In addition, everyone was given a catty of brown sugar. Madam Zhou and the others were overjoyed.

Nowadays, sugar was very expensive. They only bought a little more than a catty a year. Usually, they could not bear to eat it. They only ate it during the New Year or during confinement.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yundong gave them one catty each, especially Madam Zhou. She and her daughter-in-law, Madam Song, came to help, but Gu Yundong gave her two catties. Madam Zhou beamed with joy and almost treated her as her biological daughter.

Perhaps only Madam Dong knew how much brown sugar Gu Yundong had. To others, brown sugar was very precious, but to Gu Yundong, it was the most suitable gift.

After Madam Zhou and the others left, Gu Yundong carried the remaining brown sugar into her new home. Shi Dashan and He Ye were still waiting for her there..
