The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man Chapter 126 - 125: Gu Jiaojiao Goes to the Educated Youth Po

Gu Jiaojiao had originally only planned to make a facial soap for the mass market.

Wealthy people were particular about the products they used, and without high-quality ingredients, it was impossible to create a high-end product. That’s why she had already given up on the idea.

But she hadn’t expected to stumble upon such a pri specin of *Polygonum multiflorum*. If she used it to create a hair-darkening shampoo, the results were bound to be excellent.

The high-end market was all about quality over quantity, which would save her a lot of trouble.

She was so set on creating a high-end product because her own energy was limited. If she tried to mass-produce every single item, she’d work herself to death.

There was also another, more important reason: she needed to make money.

It was late 1975, and by 1977, an era of rapid developnt would begin.

If she didn’t have any money by the ti policies changed, she would be starting from scratch, and her ambitions would be nothing more than empty dreams.

Besides, she believed there was no shortage of clever people in any era. Once the economy opened up, she couldn’t guarantee she’d be able to outcompete the businesspeople of this ti.

That’s why she had to save up so capital before that day arrived.

That way, once the policies changed, she would have the ans to take Leng Yuan and leave Qingshan Team. It would give her a foundation to stand on.

Beyond planning for her future, Gu Jiaojiao also had to guard against the Gu Family.

From the original owner’s mories, Gu Jiaojiao knew that her mother had passed away when she was very young. Later, her father had remarried a woman who had been married before.

The woman brought a daughter with her, and now they also had a son, who was two years younger than Gu Jiaojiao. The rest of the family was the picture of harmony.

Her father was a factory director, earning over a hundred yuan a month. The family lived in a two-story house and was well-off. Her stepmother was constantly on guard, afraid she would try to claim a share of the family inheritance.

Now that she had been sent away to this place, her stepmother couldn’t be bothered with her.

But she knew that if she ever found her way back to the city and beca an eyesore to certain people, the Gu Family would surely use their power and influence to crush her.

Gu Jiaojiao didn’t want to be passive.

And she would never allow herself to be put in a passive position!

Gu Jiaojiao had an incredibly clear plan for her future.

What she didn’t know was that, at that very mont, the Gu Family was receiving an unexpected visitor—one they considered extrely important.

After the visitor left, a silence fell over the Gu Family. Then, they wrote a letter to Gu Jiaojiao, ntioning her engagent and telling her they would find her a job soon, so she should prepare to return to the city.

Unaware of what was happening with the Gu Family, Gu Jiaojiao saw that the sun was about to set and carried the *Polygonum multiflorum* back into her room.

Her clothes had gotten dirty while she was handling the herbs, so she opened her wardrobe to find a clean outfit.

As she was rummaging through her clothes, her eyes fell upon a bridal gown of red cloth embroidered with gold thread.

Leng Yuan had bought it for her.

Unfortunately, she had never once worn it.

They had been busy with the Qiushou harvest before, and afterward, they were constantly going up the mountain to stockpile food for the winter. With Leng Yuan also working every day, neither of them had any free ti.

The wedding banquet kept getting postponed, and neither of them brought it up.

Gu Jiaojiao wasn’t too concerned about the wedding banquet anyway.

Leng Yuan had already cut ties with all the relatives he needed to from the Leng Family. If they actually held a banquet, probably very few people would show up. It was better not to have one at all.

’It was just a sha about the dress. So expensive, so beautiful, and now it would probably never see the light of day.’

Gu Jiaojiao reached out and stroked the fabric, then took out a Dacron outfit from the side and changed into it.

She made her way to the educated youth point with practiced ease.

Everyone was surprised to see her.

"Gu Jiaojiao, what are you doing here?"
