Chapter 427: Father Has Been Working Hard Lately (1/2)

Even though Gu Qingyao was shocked by how the people in the brigade thought, she could not see Mo Beihan, no matter how much she wanted to.

She had no choice but to wait for the end of the year, when Mo Beihan would be on leave.

It was true that the girls tried to make friends with her as of late. Of them, Sun Mei of the Sun family was the most enthusiastic. Gu Qingyao was mystified as she watched Sun Mei. Did these people take her for a fool?

She had no choice. If she stayed at home, these people would come over to chat with her. It was really annoying. So Gu Qingyao went out every day.

Meanwhile, in the cowshed, Jiang Yiru’s health improved daily. Gu Qingyao took good care of them and the two of them recovered swiftly.

Gu Qingyao was at loose ends. In the depths of winter, almost everyone stayed at home to weather the winter. She came every day and the older folks taught her enthusiastically.

They were all masters of their trade. Anyone would be delighted at the sight of such an intelligent young girl.

After studying with them for a few days, even Gu Yunshen enjoyed going over to listen to Jiang Yiru. More importantly, Gu Qingyao noticed that her father was even more diligent than her.

This shocked Gu Qingyao!

“Father, you’ve been… working hard lately!”

Gu Yunshen’s hand paused in midair and his gaze took on a faraway look for an instant. But he quickly recovered and glanced at Gu Qingyao. He said calmly, “I’m not as clever as you, so I need to work harder.”

As he spoke, he bowed his head and earnestly studied the notes that he had taken during Jiang Yiru’s lesson.

Gu Qingyao: “…”

Jiang Yiru glanced at Gu Yunshen with an amused look in her eyes.

Recently, her little disciple’s father often came to attend lessons. With her permission, he came almost every day.
