Chapter 247: Chapter 247 Returning to the Family of Scholars?_1This shouldn’t have been reported; not every country likes to see this kind of cooperation. Moreover, the situation is too complicated, and it was a last resort.
Huai’an is highly gifted, and he’s a person the other side puts great effort into trying to recruit. He didn’t really agree with him going out this time, but Huai’an said his re
After a mix of haggling and threats and temptations, she still couldn’t find out whether Huai’an had a girl he liked.
This only made Gu Xin more determined.
She had to get to the bottom of this.
So, she ran to the study to ask her father. Elder Gu’s eyes rolled slightly, and then he informed Gu Xin, "Erdao River Village, Song Yunuan, female, seventeen years old, finished junior high."
Gu Xin’s eyes widened in shock.
"A village girl?"
Gu Xin couldn’t believe it. They were worlds apart, one in the heavens and the other underground. Even if that Song Yunuan was as beautiful as a flower, it was impossible for their paths to cross.
How did they even meet?
After analyzing for a while, Gu Xin immediately said, "I knew that Chu Zizhou from the Chu family was up to no good. They probably met through him. Setting up shop in the countryside as a team leader, he does have quite the knack for dodging trouble. Dad, you should be more alert. Just because you are told not to meddle, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make a peep.
You’ve seen the state of our family. Huai’an is the one capable of carrying the load. Including the one from my house, who even dares to submit a blank math test. What future could he have? In the end, they will all have to rely on Huai’an. Plus, you’re getting on in years. In a few more years, you should step back. Then, who can take over your place in our family? Without a strong successor, the Gu family will be doomed..."
Old Master Gu’s eyeballs bulged, "Get out!"
What does she mean, ’doomed’?
I’m still alive.
Even if I pass away, are you all doomed?
That’s just pathetic.
Gu Xin always spoke her mind, and she had this peculiarity, she wasn’t comfortable until she finished speaking.
But worrying about being hit by the old master, she stood at the door of the study and continued, "Look how clever the people at the Qian family are. They set up a company in Nan City and now they are doing business with foreigners. Their surname is also good, ’Qian,’ which means money. This way, they’ll keep getting richer and richer. Money is indispensable nowadays. I wanted to go to Nan City to set up a company at the beginning of the year, but you wouldn’t let me."
"You go set up what? You think you can do business, but with your level, you might end up selling yourself and still help others count the money!" he said angrily. "Get out right now, don’t come and irritate me. Also, if Xiao Bei dares to submit a blank paper, I think it’s your fault. His other grandparents are both college professors."
"And look at you, you’re the only one in the Gu family who was poor in studies. See who isn’t better than you? Xiao Bei is just following in your footsteps. Our family has been a distinguished family of scholars for centuries, and yet here you are, turned out so vulgar. Get out, you just make me angry."
Gu Xin felt a little wronged and muttered to herself in her heart: Was she vulgar? No, she wasn’t as vulgar as her old man, who just farts and burps away. A family of scholars? She thought her father was the real oddball.
But still, Gu Xin learned something new today, and with that, she felt quite satisfied.
