Everyone in Yongfu Village was overjoyed.
No matter what, this was a road that belonged to their Yongfu Village and could allow two carriages to pass.
This road was built before the New Year. It was just nice for the relatives who visited after the New Year.
Everyone was excited. Even the people who had muttered their dissatisfaction on the meeting were very proud, especially when they went to their relatives and friends’ houses. Everyone mentioned this road, making the villagers of the other villages jealous.
On the day the road was completed, almost the entire village came out to take a walk on this road.
However, Chen Liang stopped them.
He bought firecrackers and placed them on a long bamboo pole. He got someone to light the primer and personally carried it all the way from the foot of the mountain to the entrance of the village.
On this day, the entire Yongfu Village was filled with joy, as if it was the New Year in advance.
Gu Yundong was also very happy. She took a lot of fruits and snacks for the jumping children to eat.
Yunke was very bold now. She swayed and actually wanted to follow behind Chen Liang to set off firecrackers. Gu Yundong was so frightened that she hurriedly carried her back.
These firecrackers were blind. It would not be good if a child was injured.
Many people from the neighboring village came to experience this main road. Even the workshop was suspended for two hours. Everyone came out to watch the fun.
The main road was built outside their workshop. Wouldn’t it be easier to commute in the future? Especially for the workers from other villages, they didn’t have to worry about bumping into someone from the corner at night. They felt much safer.
The main road was built, and many people were grateful to the Gu family.
After all… it was really convenient.
Furthermore, they could go to other villages to brag to others. The village chief of the neighboring village was so envious that his eyes turned red. Every time he met Chen Liang, he would be very unhappy when he saw the guy’s smug expression. “You’re just lucky. If the Gu family had settled in our village back then, you would be the one jealous of us now.”
Chen Liang snorted. Forget it, there was a big road in his village. He would be magnanimous and not argue with such a pitiful person.
There were unexpectedly many people walking on this new road.
On the third day, Gu Yundong also drove the carriage out of Yongfu Village.
It was almost the new year, and she planned to go to the county to buy things.
Also, now that there were more people in the workshop, she had to buy New Year presents for everyone.
The county city was lively again. The streets were filled with joy, and many stalls had already begun to sell couplets.
Gu Yundong looked away. There were three scholars in her family now. It was easy for them to write couplets.
Her father would be back in a few days. It would be the same if he wrote them then.
As she thought about it, she decided to buy some red words.
Tong Shuitao came out with her. The two of them parked the carriage at Gu’s and shopped.
When it was almost noon and their hands were full, they returned to Gu’s and put the things in the carriage.
Gu Yundong clapped her hands. “Let’s go eat first. We’ll continue watching after that.”
“Okay.”
The two of them were about to walk out when Zhuangzi hurriedly said, “Boss, you guys rest for a while. I’ll go straight to Jinxiu Restaurant and bring the food back. There’s no need to trouble yourself.”
Gu Yundong nodded and Zhuangzi left in a hurry.
After a while, a few voices suddenly came from the shop outside. Gu Yundong and Tong Shuitao looked at each other. It did not sound like Zhuangzi.
