Gu Yundong looked at him in surprise. He did not expect Zeng Jia to have such mature thoughts.
Zeng Jia was a little embarrassed by her gaze. He scratched his head and smiled. "Sister-in-law, don’t laugh at . I know I’m thinking too far ahead. I just feel that since I’m the eldest in the family, I have a responsibility to my parents and siblings. While I don’t need to bear this responsibility now, I want to... go out and explore."
A 12-year-old boy was mature and sensible, but he also had the innocence and yearning of a child. It was quite good.
Gu Yundong could not help but feel emotional.
She smiled and nodded. "I can take you to the capital, and I’ll pay you according to what you do."
When Zeng Jia heard this, he quickly waved his hand and was about to refuse.
"It’s settled then." Gu Yundong did not give him the chance. She raised her hand to stop him and asked, "But have you told your parents about this?"
"I have." Zeng Jia hurriedly nodded.
"Oh?" Gu Yundong was a little surprised. "Aunt and the others agreed?"
"Yes, Father and Mother said that I’ve grown up. It’s good to have such an idea. Moreover, they can be at ease with you, Sister-in-law. I just have to get your approval. Moreover, they said that this is my business and asked to say it myself. If Sister-in-law doesn’t agree, they don’t allow to pester her anymore."
Actually, for a village boy of his age, he had to work in the fields. He could be considered a strong laborer.
He was still considered lucky. After studying for two more years, he could have many more ways out.
He had a cousin who did not study, and had followed his parents to the fields since he was young. When the cousin was 11 years old, he learned craftsmanship from a master. He left the county early and went elsewhere. Now that he was 14 years old, he had only returned ho twice. Until now, he had no salary.
Therefore, the Zeng couple did not think that there was anything wrong with their son going out to look for work.
Gu Yundong smiled when he heard that. "Alright, since Aunt and the others have no objections, I’ll tell Tong An later and add your na. When the ti cos, we’ll set off together. Before we set off, say goodbye to your parents and friends and pack your luggage."
"Yes." Zeng Jia was so happy that she almost jumped up. The smile on her face could not be stopped.
After bidding farewell to Gu Yundong, he skipped out of the Shao residence.
Gu Yundong looked at his back and could not help but shake her head.
There was one more candidate to go to the capital. For Gu Yundong, it was an extra helper.
Moreover, she did intend to bring the villagers of Yong Fu Village out to take a look. Everyone would beco rich together and build the village better.
When Shao Qingyuan returned at night, Gu Yundong told him about this.
Shao Qingyuan had a good relationship with the Zeng family and was very willing to help them, so he naturally had no objections.
His volunteer consultation was still ongoing, but Tong An and Shen Sitian’s wedding date had arrived.
Tong An did not know many people here. Most of them were from the Gu Family’s workshop in Yong Fu Village.
However, not everyone in the workshop was invited, so there were about ten tables of guests.
Gu Yundong attended the wedding as Shen Sitian’s friend. She added makeup for her and watched her being carried out of the house by Tong An.
The wedding was very lively, and Tong An took it very seriously. He did not hesitate to spend his savings.
