Chapter 1063: The Zhang Family’s Good Plan
Editor: Henyee Translations
Old Master Liu was stunned and frowned. “She did it on purpose to embarrass Yundong?”
She clearly knew that Yundong was not from a rich family, but she still deliberately ntioned the Gu family in the north of the city, as if she was waiting for Gu Yundong to say that she was a country bumpkin.
Gu Yundong said, “Actually, this doesn’t matter. She might have misunderstood my relationship with Liu Wei. She’s a little vain and wants to teach a lesson. Humans can’t be perfect. It’s not a big deal to have so small thoughts.”
At that ti, Gu Yundong really did not think much of it. Even when they were eating, Zhang Jiao kept introducing all kinds of delicious dishes, as if Gu Yundong was just a country girl who had no experience, but she did not make it too obvious.
At least, at that ti, Liu Yan, who was sitting at the sa table, only sighed at how enthusiastic she was.
Until they saw Zhang Hao.
...
“What’s wrong with eting Zhang Hao?” Liu Yan had always felt that she was quite intelligent. Others had also praised her for being smart. But now that she heard Gu Yundong’s words, she realized that she had overlooked these details.
At the ntion of Zhang Hao, Gu Yundong sneered. “Zhang Jiao wanted to matchmake with Zhang Hao.”
“What did you say?” Shao Qingyuan, who had been silent all this while, was the first to frown.
Liu Wei was also shocked. After the shock, he silently shrank his presence to prevent Shao Qingyuan from blaming him.
“Why did she want to matchmake you and Young Master Zhang?” Liu Yan was a little curious. “If she really looks down on your identity, why did she…”
“It’s probably for sugar. Besides, she didn’t want Zhang Hao to marry as his first wife. I’ll just be a concubine. It’s not a loss for their family to exchange the identity of a concubine for the sugar.”
The Zhang family was in the pastry business and needed too much white sugar. However, Gu’s could sold five catties at a ti. How could it satisfy their appetite?
However, everyone in Fengkai County knew that the Gu family’s sugar was dedicated to the emperor. With the emperor’s decree, no one in the county dared to have any designs on the sugar.
However, this did not an that they could not have designs on Gu Yundong. Now, other than the imperial court, only the Gu family could do the white sugar business.
As long as Gu Yundong beca a mber of the Zhang family, the white sugar business would naturally belong to the Zhang family.
This Zhang family had a good plan.
Moreover, the two whispering people had specially ntioned that the Young Madam did not have many months left to live. They gave Gu Yundong so pressure and let her know that if she wanted to marry into the Zhang family and beco the Young Madam of the Zhang family, it was best to beco the Young Master’s concubine as soon as possible.
Gu Yundong was speechless. Why was the Zhang family so sure that she would fall for Zhang Hao?
Just because he was the eldest young master of the Zhang family?
Old Master Liu frowned when he heard that. Old Master Zhang’s business ability was average and he had so small problems, but as an in-law, there was no big problem.
But his children…
Especially Zhang Jiao. It was fine even if she had so tricks up her sleeve. He did not care.
However, she could not be too unreliable. Liu Wei was already unreliable enough. Even if his future wife wasn’t too smart, she should know her limits.
Since Zhang Jiao knew that Gu Yundong’s family was in the sugar business, she would definitely know that she was engaged.
She went to matchmake a girl who was engaged to be her brother’s concubine? And she even used her sister-in-law as a raft. She simply didn’t know what was going on.
Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Gu Yundong had a close relationship with the Liu family. Yet, she had to offend Gu Yundong. Not only could such a person not help Liu Wei, but she would also drag him down.
Gu Yundong saw that Old Master Liu knew what he was doing, so she added, “Uncle Liu, why don’t you spend more ti to find out more about Zhang Jiao’s personality and the Zhang family’s plans?” Gu Yundong was still very concerned about Tao Yan’s expression when he asked about the Zhang family.
Old Master Liu nodded. He thought so too.
