Chapter 1275: Not the Big Picture Again
As soon as he arrived, Dou Fukang asked, “Where’s the eldest daughter of the Duan family?”
Gu Yundong had already heard from Duan Wan that she had t Dou Fukang. Now that she heard him ask, she could not help but look at him sideways. “Why are you so concerned about her?”
Dou Fukang was speechless. Because she is the eldest daughter of the Duan family.
Gu Yundong looked inside and said, “She’s inside. Her two maidservants are injured.”
When Dou Fukang heard that, he did not ask further.
He ca over to bring them a piece of news. “Second Master Duan is searching the entire city for the arsonist. It’s said that soone sneaked into the Duan family and stole sothing. When he was captured by the Duan family, he was indignant, so he set a fire, causing several servants of the Duan family to be injured. He then escape from the Duan family. Therefore, Second Master Duan reported it to the officials and is looking everywhere for them now.”
Shao Qingyuan raised his eyebrows. “He dares to report it to the officials?”
He was clearly looking for Duan Wan, but he still dared to make a big deal out of it.
But thinking about it, so what if it blew up? As long as he found Duan Wan, he could take her back to the residence. As for how to deal with her after returning to the residence, it was up to the Duan family behind close doors.
As for what Second Master Duan had done to Duan Wan previously, there was no evidence. Even if Duan Wan ca out to accuse them, they would be able to find an excuse. There was nothing to be afraid of.
Gu Yundong could not help but roll her eyes. Second Master Duan was really angry this ti.
Dou Fukang said, “Since the eldest daughter of the Duan family is staying here, it shouldn’t be a big deal. Your shop…” He smiled. “The officials seem to have been taking good care of it.”
Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows proudly. Of course, such a huge shop would attract a lot of attention. Even with Duan Qian as their backing, rchants could only bow their heads to the governnt. However, the entire provision store was only managed by the three mbers of the Yu family. They had no power or influence, so they would beco a thorn in the side of others.
It was only last ti when Second Master Duan ca to find trouble without knowing what was going on that he brought along General Dou’s young master, causing the officials to not co.
If Second Master Duan found soone to co to her shop this ti, she would not be polite.
While they were talking, Duan Wan ca out of the room.
When she saw Dou Fukang, she was stunned for a mont. Her expression was no longer as vigilant as before. She nodded slightly. “Young Master Dou.”
Dou Fukang thought for a mont and said, “I want to talk to you alone. Is it convenient?”
Duan Wan nodded. “Sure.”
Dou Fukang and Duan Wan went to the room next door to talk.
When the two of them ca out again, it was already an hour later. It was unknown what they had talked about for so long.
After saying that, Dou Fukang left, but Duan Wan was still sitting on the chair in a daze.
Gu Yundong stood beside her and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Duan Wan suddenly ca back to her senses and shook her head with a bitter smile. “Nothing.” It was just that Dou Fukang had analyzed the current situation with her and made her understand that at this mont, not only could she not take revenge on Second Uncle and Second Aunt, but she also had to help find those people who were originally loyal to Eldest Brother and make sure that they temporarily obey Second Uncle’s orders.
Duan Wan felt very upset. She was just a young lady who did not know anything about the world. She did not want to care about the big picture at all and did not want to make Second Uncle and Second Aunt happy. She could not wait for those managers to find trouble with Second Uncle.
However, the Duan family was her brother’s hard work. Those managers could withstand the pressure for a while, but they could not withstand it for a lifeti. If they continued to go against Second Uncle, the consequences would be that they would all lose their jobs.
