Chapter 240 Touring Qingjiang City
The sunlight shines through the mottled leaves and falls on Yang and Gu Yu, forming patches of light and shadow.

Yang had a puzzled look on her face and confusion in her eyes. She stared at Gu Yu and asked softly, "Are you really not going with us?" There was a hint of surprise in her voice.

Gu Yu's eyes did not evade at all. She met Yang's gaze calmly and firmly, shook her head gently, and replied decisively: "No, I'll wait for you here with Yili."

The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, as if she was smiling, as if conveying a sense of confidence to Yang, but her eyes revealed an elusive emotion that made Yang fall into deep thought.

Yang stared at Gu Yu quietly, trying to read more information from her expression. Her brows were slightly furrowed, as if she was trying to think about something important.

After a long while, Yang finally nodded to show her agreement, and then said: "Okay, since you have decided, let's set off first. You and Yili can take the three children for a walk around the neighborhood!"

After saying that, Yang resolutely turned around and left with Gu Pan and the others. Their figures gradually walked away and finally disappeared on the distant horizon, leaving only silence and Gu Yu and Yili waiting there.

Gu Yu stared at Yang's back as she walked away, a complex ripple of emotions rising from deep in her heart. She knew that her decision was a little strange, but she didn't want to explain the reason too much.

Turning back to Han Yili, Han Yili suggested softly, "How about we go to the bamboo forest courtyard first and wait for our parents to return?"

When it came to going to Baofo Temple to burn incense and draw lots, Yang and Han Yili already knew what the final result would be.

Yang and others have already gone to the Taoist temple to burn incense and pray for blessings.

Not far away, there is a dense bamboo forest.

Fang Tang first went to rent a quiet courtyard and carefully arranged the delicacies, fruits and exquisite pastries brought from home.

Gu Yu happily responded, "Okay!" Then, she and Han Yili took the three little ones for a walk on the path.

Along the way, we enjoyed the charming scenery of the island and occasionally stopped to accompany the children to chase beautiful butterflies or observe the busy bees.

When arriving at the yard, Gu Yu's eyes were attracted by the milk tea on the table, and he couldn't help but tease: "I still remember that when we first went up the mountain, Fang Tang specially prepared milk tea for you. At that time, I complained with my elder brother that you were too delicate."

Han Yili's hand holding the milk tea suddenly paused and said unhappily, "I was brought up in a pampered environment, so it's only natural for me to prepare more things when I go out!"

It would have been fine if we didn't mention the situation when we went up the mountain last year, but when I mention Han Yili, I think of the scene where Gu Yu was injured while saving him.

And that look that makes people hate it.

Gu Yu nodded, agreeing with what Han Yili said. If the family did not have enough money to provide for their own food and drink, then they could indeed save some expenses.

But Han Yili came from a noble family, and his family had countless gold, silver and treasures at his disposal. Why should he care about what others thought of him?

We should not be stingy with our diet and daily life.

So she smiled and said, "Of course I know my husband is of noble status, so I have to earn more money, otherwise one day I may not even be able to support you and the children."

Han Yili glared at Gu Yu and said, "We are husband and wife. Everything you have belongs to me, and everything I have also belongs to you. In the future, we need to discuss and decide on any matters at home. We can never let you shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family alone."

Although today there is no distinction between genders among those who work outside to earn money to support their families, Han Yili has always adhered to the principle that couples should consult with each other and share family responsibilities.

I don’t want only one party to silently make all the efforts for the family.

Gu Yu pinched Han Yili's smooth and delicate cheek and said with a smile, "Everything is up to your husband." Congcong, who was admiring the flowers, butterflies and bees in the yard, happened to see her mother pinching her father's face.

I saw him walking towards me with small, unsteady steps, mumbling something.

Gu Yu noticed that Congcong moved his cute little face closer to her as he walked.

Combined with the unclear words said by the little guy, I soon understood that the little guy wanted me to pinch his face like I pinched Han Yili's face just now.

Faced with this situation, how could Gu Yu refuse?

So she gently reached out her hand and lightly pinched Congcong's pink little face.

Make the little one dance with joy.

By the time Gu Wu and the others came back from burning incense, Gu Yu had already grilled a lot of barbecue.

The whole family sat together, enjoyed a sumptuous lunch, and then went to other parts of the island for a stroll.

They returned to the inn before the city gates closed in the afternoon.

At this time, Qiu Shi, who had gone to look for Hong Yue, came back and reported, "Master, the head of the Hong family does not want to discuss with his subordinates, but has agreed to meet you at the grilled fish shop tomorrow, and then the head of the Hong family will negotiate with you in person."

When Gu Yu heard that Qiu Yue first went to find Hong Yue, she was almost driven out by the housekeeper. Fortunately, Han Jing stopped her in time, and Hong Yue barely suppressed her inner displeasure and talked with Qiu Shi.

When Hongyue learned about Qiu Shi and Han Jing's purpose of visit, she asked to meet with her, and Hongyue decided to continue discussing the next matters.

Gu Yu thought for a moment, weighed Hongyue's behavior, and decisively refused: "I didn't come here specifically to deal with this matter. Hongyue is willing to talk, then talk, and if she doesn't want to talk, then that's fine. At worst, we can find a group of people to deal with the decoration of her store that is similar to ours some other day."

If it weren't for the fact that she owned many properties in addition to her parents' properties in the capital and Linfeng County, and was worried that her household registration would be classified as a business one, she would not have to discuss this with Hongyue at all.

Just open a chain store yourself.

Ran'er, as she is the one marrying, cannot open too many shops. Han Yili, as the one marrying, has a generous dowry. If she wants to open a grilled fish shop, she can transfer the shop to his name.

Thinking of this, Gu Yu stared at Han Yili with sparkling eyes and said, "Ali, how about I open a chain of grilled fish stores and transfer the right to use them to your name? What do you think?"

Hearing this, Han Yili couldn't help but be stunned.

You know, in addition to the betrothal gift that Gu Yu gave her before, he also owns one-third of the Han family's assets in his name.

Now Gu Yu actually said that he wanted to open a grilled fish shop, and he wanted to transfer the name of the shop to him.

Is Gu Yu serious?
But if you think about it carefully, considering the current class and status of the two of them, it might not be a bad idea to transfer the name of the grilled fish shop to him.

After all, all their property will be left to their three children in the future.

Han Yili nodded and replied, "Sure." Then he added, "Since you plan to expand the grilled fish shop, you need to transfer some people from my place to help."
