Chapter 1068: Niu Dan’s Brother, Lu Dan

Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong smiled. “Uncle Chen, you don’t have to be so polite. If there’s anything you need, just say it. I’ll definitely help if I can.”

“It’s like this.” Chen Liang was still a little embarrassed. “You also know that Niu Dan’s brother, Lu Dan, used to study in town.”

The corners of Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. She really did not know that Niu Dan’s brother was called Lu Dan. Didn’t they say that he went to school early and was called by his full name?

Only Chen Liang, as a grandfather, insisted on a lowly name so that it would be easy to raise him up.

Lu Dan was Chen Jincai’s son.

“Lu Dan has also gone to Dongyi Academy in the county city to study,” Chen Liang said.

Gu Yundong said, “That’s a good thing.”

Lu Dan used to study in town. When Chen Jincai was a junior manager, the family of three rented a house in town.

Later on, Chen Jincai lost his job, so he naturally stopped renting the house. Fortunately, his mother’s maiden family was from town, so Lu Dan stayed at his grandfather’s house most of the time, making it convenient for him to go to and from school.

However, the Wei family’s uncles and aunts were rather dissatisfied. After all, Chen Jincai had already returned home to farm. Even if he would give food as a living expense every month, how was that enough? They were dissatisfied. The family had a few quarrels because of this, and Lu Dan’s studies were also affected.

It was only when Chen Jincai became a county worker that the Wei family became enthusiastic about Lu Dan.

However, Lu Dan was not a fool. How could he not see this perfunctory politeness?

Therefore, when Chen Jincai became the shopkeeper and his salary increased and stabilized in the county city, he began to send Lu Dan to the county city to study.

It just so happened that Niu Dan was in Dongyi Academy, so the two brothers could accompany each other.

Therefore, not long ago, Lu Dan also entered Dongyi Academy.

Chen Jincai was reassured, but the problem also emerged. Niu Dan had been riding the Gu family’s carriage to the county city previously. Now that there was an additional Lu Dan, Chen Liang was embarrassed to let his two grandsons freeload someone else’s carriage.

These days, it was Chen Liang who drove the ox cart to send his two grandsons to the county city.

It was just that the county city was far away and the ox cart was slow. It would be fine if he sent them over once or twice, but if he had to do it every morning and night, it would take too much time. He would not have to do his family’s work.

Chen Liang had also thought of renting a house in the county city, but firstly, the rent in the county city was expensive, and secondly, his two grandsons were still young. He would not be at ease without someone to take care of them.

Although Chen Jincai could occasionally stay in the backyard of Gu’s shop, he couldn’t live there with the children.

After thinking about it, Chen Liang still wanted to borrow the Gu family’s carriage to commute to the county. However, it had to carry an extra Lu Dan.

Gu Yundong immediately agreed. “No problem.”

Chen Liang heaved a sigh of relief and took out the copper coins on him. “Here’s a hundred copper coins. Take it as the fare for the two brothers’ carriage.”

Gu Yundong thought about it and did not refuse. She accepted it anyway.

Chen Liang heaved a sigh of relief. “Then I’ll go back first. You guys rest early too.”

He waved his hand and left the Gu residence briskly.

When he returned to his courtyard, Madam Zhou, who had been waiting, hurriedly welcomed him. “Did they accept the hundred copper coins?”

“They did.” Chen Liang looked relaxed as he went in to eat.

Madam Zhou heaved a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, Madam Wei was unhappy when she heard this. “It’s just one more person. They actually took money. The Gu family doesn’t lack those hundred copper coins. Why do they have to charge this?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Madam Zhou patted her back heavily. “Shut up. I finally know why your husband didn’t bring you to the county.”
