The era of caution was over. The Gu family were no longer bad elements who had to live cautiously. The old folks in the Qing River Brigade’s cowshed had resumed their jobs, and many of them were currently in the capital.
They were nearly at the end of 1876. After a few years of brainwashing, Mo Beihan had convinced Gu Jinfeng. He now had a deeper understanding of the future.
Some of those who had been sent overseas were back. They really learnt a lot and were completely changed. Now a second batch was being sent overseas.
And Gu Jinfeng was among them.
The Gu family was rapidly advancing in the capital, and they had become one of the newcomers to the upper class.
It was Second Uncle’s family that had advanced the most. Right now, Second Uncle, Gu Yunjing, held the most senior position within the Gu family.
pαndα-noνɐ1,сoМ Among the grandchildren, Second Cousin Gu Jinhang was doing the best, followed by Eldest Cousin Gu Jinye.
Gu Jinye had proven worthy of his status as Eldest Cousin. He was steady, all-rounded and could see the big picture. His image was excellent. Although Second Uncle’s family was advancing rapidly, no one overlooked the Gu family’s oldest grandson.
Unlike Second Cousin Gu Jinhang. His reputation for his cunning had made him notorious in the capital!
Gu Jinfeng was not interested in a steady job. He had no choice in the past. He could not survive without a job. But now society was opening up, and he saw a ray of hope.
With his father and older brother around, the family did not need him. He wanted to see the world and test his wings.
People who were permitted to leave the country just had to complete their studies, and they were guaranteed a job upon return. He wanted to travel overseas and gain experience. As long as he finished his studies, his future was assured when he returned. Worse comes to worst, he could always look for another job!
His younger cousin had already been overseas for three years. He was worried about her and wanted to see her!
Gu Jinfeng felt that he had no burdens. He was not worried about money or the future. Going overseas would only cause a few years delay. He was not going there for fun but to learn. Surely there was no disadvantage in learning.
But Mo Beihan was different. This fellow wanted to go overseas as well. That surprised Gu Jinfeng!
The Gu family had worked hard to rise to their position in the capital. But Mo Beihan was different. He was so young. He depended entirely on his position as the Mo family’s eldest grandson.
It would not be easy for him to gain a foothold in the capital.
After so long in the Mo family, he was practically the Mo family’s successor. If he went overseas at this time, it would disrupt his progress in the Mo family.
Mo Beihan smiled at Gu Jinfeng’s question. “I can’t help it. I miss my wife! Yao Yao is such an outstanding girl. If I don’t go soon, she might not want me anymore. What will I do then?”
Gu Jinfeng glared at him. This bastard. Although he knew that Mo Beihan was exaggerating, he could not help feeling irritated at his words.
But the girl was his younger cousin, so he had no choice!
Gu Jinfeng did not know that Mo Beihan was not exaggerating.
He was mainly going overseas to see Gu Qingyao.
He was not worried that Yao Yao would despise him. But… it had been too long. He was almost wild with missing her!
He really… could not wait any longer!
Grandfather and Grandma Mo could not bear to let Mo Beihan go overseas. But Jiang Hongying and Mo Yunhao were so excited when they found out that they could not sleep. That irritating fellow was finally leaving.
