Chapter 164 Turning Dreams into Reality
Hearing this, Tu Subo looked up at Gu Yuexuan, a flicker of gratitude in his eyes. He held Gu Yuexuan's hand tightly and nodded: "Thank you, Xuan'er. I know you will support me, but I really don't know what to do about this matter."
Gu Yuexuan smiled slightly and said with a firm look in her eyes, "It's okay, we can find a solution together. By the way, I have some money. Although it's not much, it may be able to temporarily help you solve some of your urgent needs."
Tu Subo shook his head: "No, I can't let you share this with me. I will find a way to pay back this money. But now..."
Gu Yuexuan gently patted Tu Subo's hand: "I know you are a responsible person, but husband and wife should support each other. Consider this money as a loan to you. When you have the chance, return it to me."
Tu Subo was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, thank you for your trust. I will find a way to solve this matter as soon as possible."
That day, Gu Yuexuan brought Tu Subo to the teahouse at the entrance of the village, intending to ask the teahouse owner about the news of the Pei family.
In the teahouse, the villagers were sitting together, talking about the trivialities of the village. Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo found a corner to sit down, and the boss came over when he saw them.
Gu Yuexuan smiled and asked, "Boss, is there anything new in the village recently?"
The boss glanced at Gu Yuexuan and replied with a smile: "Nothing new, but the Pei family seems to be in some trouble recently. It seems that there is some problem with their business."
Hearing this, Gu Yuexuan's heart moved. She knew this was an opportunity. She winked at Tu Subo, and Tu Subo immediately understood what she meant.
In the following time, Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo chatted with the boss and gradually learned about the problems of the Pei family's business. It turned out that the Pei family's business had recently suffered heavy losses due to a sudden plague, which led to unsold goods.
Gu Yuexuan was secretly delighted, thinking this was an opportunity to negotiate with the Pei family. So, she discussed it with Tu Subo and decided to test the Pei family's attitude first.
In the evening, Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo arrived at the door of Pei's house. The door of Pei's house was closed. Gu Yuexuan took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
The door opened, and the Pei family's servant looked at them and asked in surprise, "Who are you..."
Gu Yuexuan smiled and said, "We are Tu Subo's family, and we have something to discuss with the Pei family."
The servant looked at them, nodded, and let them into the Pei family's house.
In the Pei family's living room, Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo sat down with the Pei family's owner. Gu Yuexuan said straight to the point, "Master Pei, we are here today to discuss the matter of that money."
The master of the Pei family looked at them and said calmly, "I understand what you mean. However, I have already lent the money to Pei Ziyue. He is my nephew, and I can't let him down."
Gu Yuexuan smiled and said, "Master Pei, I understand what you mean. But we are not here today to ask you to give up the money. Instead, we want to discuss with you how to make the money play a greater role."
The master of the Pei family looked at Gu Yuexuan in confusion: "Oh? What do you think?"
Gu Yuexuan slowly explained that she suggested using the money to treat plague patients. This would not only help the village overcome its difficulties but also enhance the reputation of the Pei family. The Pei family's lost goods could also be compensated through other means.
After hearing this, the Pei family master was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "I will consider your proposal. However, this money must be used wisely and not wasted."
Gu Yuexuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master Pei, we will supervise the use of this money and ensure that every penny is spent effectively."
In this way, Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo successfully reached an agreement with the Pei family. They left the Pei family with smiles on their faces and returned home.
Tu Subo smiled and touched Gu Yuexuan's hair, and said softly: "Xuanxuan, I will do my best to realize your idea." A hint of determination flashed in Gu Yuexuan's eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
At this time, the sun was setting, smoke from the village in front of the courtyard was rising, chickens were crowing and dogs were barking, creating a peaceful and harmonious scene.
Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo stood side by side in the courtyard, the afterglow of the setting sun shining on their faces, making them look even warmer.
Gu Yuexuan gently poked Tu Subo's eyebrows and said with a smile, "Husband, you must keep your word and don't let me down." There was a glimmer of expectation in her eyes. Tu Subo felt warm in his heart and held her hand tightly.
"Don't worry, Xuan'er." Tu Subo looked at Gu Yuexuan seriously and said firmly, "I will do my best to make your vision a reality. This is not only your dream, but also our common wish."
Gu Yuexuan's eyes flashed with gratitude when she heard this. Tu Subo had been silently supporting her. She smiled, gently nestled in Tu Subo's arms, and said, "Husband, I have always been very confident. I believe in my knowledge and abilities, and I am not afraid of any challenge."
Tu Subo gently stroked Gu Yuexuan's hair and said with a smile: "That's good. With you by my side, I also have infinite strength."
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere in the courtyard became more warm.
At this moment, Gu Yuexuan suddenly remembered something, and a hint of mischief flashed in her eyes. She said, "Husband, do you know? I have an idea. I want to open a school in our village so that all the children in the village can have the opportunity to study."
Tu Subo was stunned for a moment, then he understood Gu Yuexuan's intention. A hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and said, "This is a good idea. I support you. But how do you plan to implement it?"
Gu Yuexuan's eyes sparkled as she spoke, "First, we need to choose a location, preferably in the center of the village so it's convenient for the children to go to and from school. Then, we need to raise funds. We can either mobilize the villagers to donate or apply for funding from the government. Finally, we need to invite an experienced teacher to teach."
Tu Subo nodded in agreement. "Well, this plan is very good. However, I think you don't need to worry about the site selection. I will arrange it. As for the funds, I will first use a part of my family property, and then find a way to make up for the shortfall."
Gu Yuexuan smiled gratefully. Tu Subo had always been thinking about her. She patted Tu Subo's chest gently and said, "My husband, you are so kind to me."
Tu Subo smiled and said, "This is what I should do. However, you have to promise me that while running the academy, you must take good care of yourself and don't get too tired."
Gu Yuexuan's eyes flashed with mischief, and she said, "Don't worry, husband, I will pay attention. However, you also have to promise me that you will run the academy and make our dream come true."
Tu Subo looked at Gu Yuexuan seriously and nodded, "Sure."
As night fell, the lights in Yuanqian Village gradually lit up. Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo sat in the yard, looking at the starry sky, their hearts filled with anticipation.
In the days that followed, Tu Subo became busy, running around to raise funds and select a site for the academy. Gu Yuexuan stayed at home, carefully taking care of the housework. She was also responsible for contacting the children in the village to tell them the good news of the upcoming opening of the academy.
