Chapter 946: They Are All Here
Editor: Henyee Translations
This time, the news of the Gu family’s workshop not only distributing new year goods but also holding a party spread.
Many people had tears in their eyes as they stuck their heads out of the workshop. They really wanted to follow and take a look.
When the cleaning of the workshop was almost done, everyone saw the people in the workshop happily moving tables and chairs. Their arrogant appearance made people grit their teeth in envy.
Gu Yundong hired a few women from the village to help cook a delicious meal. The fish, rice, and noodles were brought to the kitchen of the Gu family’s workshop without hesitation.
This included Madam Zhou and her daughter-in-law. Coincidentally, Chen Liang’s family could eat here.
As Chen Liang was the village chief, Gu Yundong had to invite him. In addition, Chen Jincai and Chen Jinbao were both working in her own workshop, and Niu Dan had been invited over by Yunshu long ago. As such, there were only Madam Zhou and two more people left in the Chen family. They might as well all come over.
Lan Hua’er was also invited over.
As for the others, they were not allowed to bring their families. It was mainly because at this moment, there were really not just one or two families, but one or two groups. If they were allowed to bring their families, almost the entire village would have to come.
Not only that, but there were also long-term workers from the neighboring villages. The workshop could not entertain them.
Dinner started around four o’clock.
It was dark early in winter, and there were no electric lamps. Even if many oil lamps were lit, the effect was not very good.
When it was early in the afternoon, the villagers of Yongfu Village were surprised to find another group of people coming from the village entrance.
Looking closely, wasn’t it Zhao Zhu and his son?
Since Gu Yundong was holding an annual party, everyone here naturally had to be present. Although Zhao Zhu and the Shi couple were not in the workshop, they helped her manage the orchard. They were invited along with the helpers they found.
There were more than ten of them in total. Because they had received the news in advance, all of them were in high spirits and could not wait.
They had never heard of such an event, but there was a feast that they didn’t have to pay for. Who wouldn’t be willing to come?
They didn’t know that there would be New Year presents. In any case, they had to come if there was food.
Gu Yundong felt that since everyone was working for the Gu family, they could take this opportunity to get to know each other and prevent conflicts from arising among themselves. That would be troublesome.
Later, Zhuangzi and the others returned on the ox cart.
Not only them, but also Jiang Bao and the old doctor.
Shao Qingyuan was not around, so Gu Yundong had to help take care of his people, right?
As for the shop assistants and shopkeepers in the prefectural city, they were too far away and there was nothing she could do. However, Gu Yundong had prepared large red packets for these people and would distribute them after the New Year.
The people in the village watched as they went to the Gu Family Workshop in waves. They were already so envious that they lost their temper.
In any case, many people were surrounding the workshop and trying their best to look inside, especially some children.
Seeing that the tables were already set, Gu Yundong got someone to bring a lot of melon seeds and peanuts for them to eat first. When a child ran in, she also gave him a handful. Seeing that there were more and more children, she was afraid that they would bump into something, so she simply picked up a cloth bag and handed it to Yunshu and Yuanzhi, asking them to carry it and distribute the stuff to the children.
This lively atmosphere was even more noisy than the New Year.
Finally, the time for the annual party that everyone was looking forward to arrived. Everyone at the fifteen tables was sitting upright.
Before the dishes were served, Gu Yundong walked to the front and began to speak.
