After investing the money, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu felt even more at ease. Keeping the money at home or in the bank where it could devalue was not a solution to them. Fortunately, there was Xiaozang.
The elderly couple took the money from their hometown to invest, and then returned to the second uncle Gu's house, only waiting for Gu Nuan to bring her husband over to face their ridicule.
That evening, Gu Nuan and Xiao Yebai, holding the fruits that Gu's mother had helped them pick at the market during the day. The two elderly were quite picky, wanting to emulate the wealthy and insisting on the finest fruits.
