Cai Wenyue understood that this was what the young lady was worried about.
However, imagine that she is Gu Zuozuo...
Oh no! Forget it. She's not that lucky. Her parents can't even bother to raise their own daughter, let alone other people's daughters. They're not sick.
Of course, she didn't want to either. Who would want an outsider to enjoy everything that originally belonged to them? Wouldn't that be completely out of their mind?
Without her answering, Gu Zuozuo understood what she meant.
She said, she is not wrong! She will fulfill her obligations as a daughter to take care of her parents, and forget about anything else.
"Let's go back to my own home."
A home where there is no one else but yourself.
"Do you want to go to the Prince's Mansion that the boss has built for you?"
Speaking of this, Cai Wenyue almost drooled with greed.
That was the Qin Palace of the previous dynasty!
Although the place was in a mess when the Eight-Nation Army raided it, the boss spent a lot of money to renovate it. The flowers and plants were replanted according to the suggestions given by the old master. It is said that the boss's face was distorted when he paid the money.
Cai Wenyue didn't understand at first. What did she need so many houses and land for? She didn't even have enough to eat or drink, and she had to pay for its upkeep herself. How troublesome!
It was not until she returned home and saw her family squeezed into a small house of less than 40 square meters that she suddenly understood the benefits of having more houses.
Gu Zuozuo raised his eyebrows. Prince’s Mansion?
How come she didn't remember that she still had this property?
Cai Wenyue slapped her forehead and grimaced in pain.
"I forgot. You didn't come originally. This is Number Two's reward to express his gratitude for you taking two months off to help him. This is the first and only time in his life that he has shown favoritism for someone."
That person was frugal all his life, even eating one vegetable and one meat meal. He never fought for any benefits for himself, and the only time he did so was for Gu Zuozuo.
"Since you didn't come to take over in person, the boss decided to pay for the repairs. For this, he even brought in those ancient architecture professors who had just been rehabilitated and hadn't recovered yet to work for you for free. Tsk tsk, you didn't see the boss's expression when he paid the money. It was like a stingy person plucking his own feathers. It hurt..."
A black Hongqi sedan stopped in front of the two of them, the window opened, revealing Wang Erzhu's smiling face inside.
"Comrades, what a coincidence! Where are you going? I'll take you there!"
As he said this, he deliberately leaned his arms on the car window, looking like a romantic and cool guy.
If they hadn't seen how embarrassed he looked when he rolled down the window.
Gu Zuozuo looked at Cai Wenyue with an indescribable expression, then looked at the middle-aged man who didn't feel greasy at all and looked very proud. He wondered what he had experienced to become like this?
"You should just go back to your old hot temper. I'm really not used to you suddenly becoming so... so tactful..."
Wang Erzhu's face froze, and he snorted directly. Why was he being so tactful? He saw that the people in Gangcheng were doing it very casually!
"Are you guys still getting in the car?"
"superior!"

The arrival of the New Year of 1977 was a lively occasion.
Brilliant fireworks bloomed in the sky, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard from time to time.
In the entire huge prince's mansion, Gu Zuozu was the only one who was leisurely eating mutton hotpot and listening to the system chattering about the New Year gift packages received by its host.
The beautiful lady sat aside, and with her fingers, she quickly cut the spiritual lamb into slices as thin as cicada wings and put them into the bubbling and steaming charcoal pot.
Ali squatted beside her, eating the nutritious meal in his food bowl obediently, with his big fluffy tail swaying behind him, looking very comfortable.
The New Year once again turned into three pairs of hands and six pairs of arms, cleaning the entire prince's mansion spotlessly except for the snow-covered areas, and trying to paste the Spring Festival couplets prepared by his master on every door, determined not to miss a single corner.
"Host, is the mutton hotpot delicious?"
The system slurred its saliva and looked pitifully at the milky white bottom of the pot and the bright red mutton, almost crying with greed.
Everything in this world is good, and the best thing is the abundance of delicious food.
During this time, it watched its host accompany the two little sisters to various alleys and lanes every day except for going to school.
The college entrance examination has just been resumed, but the economy has not been opened.
Now, those who engage in speculation and profiteering will still be arrested, and private restaurants have not yet begun to flood the streets. If they want to eat delicious food, they can only go to state-owned restaurants or Western restaurants run by foreigners.
Later, I accidentally entered a hidden alley, which reopened the door to a new world. My daily fun was to find small private restaurants secretly operating in the corner.
Even though they are small restaurants that only serve one or two tables at a time, their cooking skills and taste are impeccable. I heard that they are either descendants of royal chefs or inheritors of century-old brands.
Gu Zuozuo picked up a piece of meat that was dangling on the chopsticks and deliberately let out a loud sigh, causing the system to scream in the space.
It hated that it was just an intelligent being and not a human being!
"Oh, it smells so good!"
The sudden teasing made Gu Zuozuo raise her eyebrows and glance at the uninvited person. She continued to eat her mutton hotpot calmly, with a look of anticipation at the corner of her mouth.
As soon as Si Jue showed up, before he could get close, he was frightened back by the cold light coming towards him.
The beauty instantly transformed from a petite and well-behaved girl into a Barbie doll. The hand that was just cutting meat turned into a laser gun and started shooting at Si Jue without mercy.
Gu Zuozuo supported his chin and watched Reese Jue being forced to jump up and down in the yard, and smiled as he instructed his movements.
