Chapter 795: Fate Is Indescribably Wonderful
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Dafeng needed money. She knew that no matter where she was, she could not do anything without money.
For example, if she had money in the backyard of the Zhou Mansion, she could at least find someone to bring them some food and not starve.
Just like Mrs. Ren. Although she was Gu Qiuyue’s confidant, she had her own interests and could still make things easier for them.
Therefore, after Bian Han carved those gadgets again, Gu Dafeng would secretly hide some.
The rest would be taken away by Mrs. Ren. In order to earn this extra income, Mrs. Ren even found wood for them. Anyway, it was just a small matter. Bian Han was her free labor.
Bian Han’s movements were fast and the carvings were beautiful.
Gu Dafeng had actually already saved up a bag of money, but it was a pity that she could not leave the residence.
Mrs. Ren was very strict in this aspect. The courtyard where Gu Qiuyue lived was filled with her people, and the place where they lived was tightly guarded.
Just as Gu Dafeng was feeling a little dejected, an opportunity suddenly came.
The servant who watched over them today did not pay attention and left without locking the door completely.
Gu Dafeng ran out secretly. She had also heard that Old Master Zhou had left the residence to watch the parade. Not only him, but Gu Qiuyue had also gone out. Mrs. Ren was not around either.
Moreover, the place they were going was relatively far from the Zhou Mansion. It would probably be after noon when they returned.
Gu Yundong thought of Steward Zhou, whom she had met in the teahouse. She had not seen Steward Zhou come out of the main door since she went back. Now that she knew that Zhou Dafu had gone out, he must have gone out through the back door.
Moreover, because she was here, he was afraid that it would be awkward if they bumped into each other, so he went further away to watch the commotion.
What could she say? Was fate… indescribably wonderful?
“So, Eldest Aunt took advantage of their absence to sell all the wooden carvings in this bag?”
Gu Dafeng nodded and looked at the bag beside her. She said in a low voice, “Unfortunately, none of them were sold. When everyone saw me like this, they thought I was a beggar. Before I could speak, they all hid run away.”
Gu Dafeng’s clothes were from her hometown. Gu Qiuyue had never given them clothes to wear.
She always said that they were doing rough work anyway. It would be a waste to give them good clothes. They did not have to go out, so there was nothing to worry about.
Therefore, even though she had washed her clothes and tidied her hair, she was still avoided by pedestrians.
The wooden carvings couldn’t be sold, and someone accidentally pushed her in front of someone’s carriage.
At that moment, Gu Dafeng’s heart was filled with despair. She had personally seen someone block a rich man’s carriage and be beaten half to death.
At that time, her limbs were weak and she could not stand up at all. Her mind was also blank. She only spoke numbly, but she did not even know what she had said.
When she picked up the wooden carvings and was about to leave, a man grabbed her hand. She started to tremble, thinking that it was over.
Unexpectedly, she met her eldest brother and niece. They stopped her because they recognized her voice.
Gu Dafeng was overjoyed. She wished she could hug her eldest brother and cry on the spot. She wanted to cry out all the emotions she had suppressed for the past year.
Finally, finally, she didn’t have to hold on like this anymore. She and her brother were reunited.
