Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path Chapter 243: Brother Tao Helps You
Ever since Wei Yan Yan was taken away, Tao Zhiran’s heart has not been at peace, and coupled with the later incident involving Gu Juan, although it was hushed up, he managed to guess a rough idea.
And then there’s the matter of the Gu Family splitting up, Gu Lingling’s words caused the image Wang ili had built in Nanshui Village to plumt.
The more Tao Zhiran thought, the more excited he beca.
Why excited?
He thought that his eyes were keen. From the mont he arrived in Nanshui Village, he set his sights on Gu Lingling, initially because of Gu Lingling’s status.
Not only did she have a cousin in the military, but though her grandfather was only an old technician at a factory, he had a wide network, and Gu Chunhai, who drove long-haul buses, knew even more people.
These connections were valuable resources for him to return to the city in the future.
But now, Tao Zhiran thought differently, he felt that only Gu Lingling was worthy of him.
A wise wife ans fewer troubles for her husband.
To marry soone with both wit and beauty and a family that doesn’t drag her down, Tao Zhiran felt this was simply a well-suited marriage for him.
Thinking of the past, he realized how foolish he was.
He had even thought of taking a roundabout route, thinking that being involved with Gu Juan and gaining Old Mrs. Gu’s favor would give him an advantage.
But they directly pulled the rug from under his feet.
The family split up.
So what should he do now?
Tao Zhiran naturally knew of Gu Lingling’s hostility towards him, even a strong sense of dislike, which he was well aware of.
In the past, he hesitated between Gu Juan and Gu Lingling, choosing the easier Gu Juan, yet ultimately gaining nothing.
Now, after seeing how Gu Lingling gracefully handled several matters, Tao Zhiran’s hopes were rekindled.
Moreover, Gu Lingling was not as foolish as Gu Juan. Just considering her beautiful handwriting, once they’re married, she could impress others just by writing a couplet every year.
Not to ntion that her strengths go beyond this.
Tao Zhiran felt that Gu Lingling was like a book; you think you understand her, but you have only seen the tip of the iceberg. The more you explore, the more exciting it becos.
But how could he get close to this Gu Lingling?
Tao Zhiran thought for a long ti and finally thought of a good way.
"Si’en, we’re both educated youths, if you ever need anything, you can co to Brother Tao. Brother Tao will definitely help you." Tao Zhiran ca to the dilapidated temple early one morning and helped Zhao Si’en fill the water tank.
"For chores like this, I’ll help you in the future."
"Thank you, Mr. Tao," Zhao Si’en said distantly, "I can handle these things myself. Please refrain from doing them in the future. I don’t want people gossiping."
He suddenly ca here to help, though Zhao Si’en didn’t know what Tao Zhiran was up to, she rembered what Gu Lingling once said: being overly attentive without reason ans either traitor or thief.
Besides, even if she didn’t fill the tank, once Old Man Qian and Old Man Zhou returned, they would fill it up anyway.
There was no need at all for Tao Zhiran to ddle here.
If those gossipy won saw, who knows what rumors might spread.
Tao Zhiran didn’t expect that the usually quiet Zhao Si’en would speak so sharply, "I just wanted to help you because you’re young. Anyone who gossips, I’ll take it up with the village chief."
"If you truly want to help , please just don’t co here again," Zhao Si’en said coolly, "Besides, there’s nothing here you can help with."
With that, she turned and went inside.
