Gu Yumei suffered at the hands of the Wan Family, realizing her father was right all along. Although the Yuan Family wasn't a scholar family, they were the village chief's family, managing half of Qingfu Town's villages, and they owned a profitable brick kiln, making it an excellent marriage prospect.
Yet she knew, for a young woman who had called off her engagement, finding another good match would not be easy. Upon learning that Chang Errui was delivering green bricks to Gu Jinli's pharmaceutical workshop today, she pleaded with Mrs. Chen. Aunt and niece thus carried bean dregs cakes and soy milk to offer their help.
Chang Errui had not expected to encounter Gu Yumei again. Hearing her words, and seeing her blushing as she approached, he immediately dodged and hid behind a worker, keeping a considerable distance from Gu Yumei. He called out to Mrs. Chen, "Aunt Da Gui, we already had breakfast before coming. You should take these breakfast items to the workshop for the others."
