Gu Chaoyan was uncertain about the extent of Manager Lin’s friendship with Third Yan. While they might have been close, she doubted that Manager Lin would offer such significant support solely out of friendship. It likely stemmed from the value of the hundred-year-old ginseng and dragon root.
Recognizing the substantial favor Manager Lin was extending, Gu Chaoyan was not inclined to squander this valuable resource. She emphasized Third Yan’s family background, sending a clear message to the Tian family that the members of Third Yan’s family were not to be mistreated.
This assertion was particularly crucial for Danxia and Dandong, being girls. With Tian Jiu joining them, the Yan family was poised to strengthen, and it was vital to discourage any unwarranted aggression from the Tian family. Gu Chaoyan couldn’t remain in their midst to provide assistance, so she sought to establish a foundation for their protection.
Aware of the complexities of human nature, Gu Chaoyan viewed this as a form of intimidation, a precaution against unforeseen future challenges.
Members of the Tian family and Auntie Lianhua acknowledged this message with solemn nods. They expressed gratitude and recognized the fortunate turn of events. The Yan family’s willingness to allow Tian Jiu to pass under these circumstances was seen not just as respect for Tian Jiu but also as an acknowledgment of the Tian family.
In light of this, the Tian family resolved to repay this favor earnestly in the future. They understood the importance of this gesture and pledged to reciprocate with sincerity whenever the opportunity arose.
“Third Yan indeed excelled in growing herbs, and the Lin Family’s pharmacy holds him in high regard. Many villagers depended on him for their livelihoods. We were aware of his skills, but the extent of his expertise still surprises us.”
“…”
“With Third Yan’s legacy, the troublemakers from the old house won’t dare to cause any issues here. No one in the village would dare to make things difficult for you.”
“…”
“Tian Jiu is now under your care. We don’t seek anything in return, as long as he has enough to eat and warm clothes to wear.”
“…”
“And these two—whenever there’s work, just assign them. We’ll compensate them accordingly,” Auntie Lianhua stated.
“It’s already a rare blessing that our Tian family can benefit from being associated with you,” she added, a hint of embarrassment coloring her tone.
Yan Danqiu sensed the sincerity in their words and recognized the honesty of their family. In similar circumstances, others might have sought additional advantages, but the Tian family seemed genuinely appreciative.
Gu Chaoyan, employing her unique approach to interpersonal relations, responded, “Auntie Lianhua, you’re being too polite. Tian Jiu is now part of my family since he’s adopted. As I mentioned before, everything in the Yan Family is shared equally among all the children. This includes Tian Jiu. Regarding Tian Liu and Tian Qi, if they choose to work with us in the future, they can select roles based on their preferences. We won’t shortchange their wages. If they have personal aspirations, we’ll do our best to support them.”
Her aim was harmony, and she hoped both families could prosper through a mutually beneficial relationship. However, as a Yan, she naturally prioritized the well-being of the Yan family.
“Danqiu, I’d like to learn herb cultivation. Third Uncle’s herbs were renowned for their quality, but our family’s financial constraints never afforded us such an opportunity in the past.”
