Their brilliance could not be attained just by earning money. He was worried that if he and Gu Fangting missed this opportunity to study, it would be even harder to catch up with them in the future.
Gu Fangting was the Gu family’s granddaughter and was very close to Gu Qingyao. He was a poor boy who had nothing. It was his immense good fortune to marry a girl like that.
If he could not keep up in terms of knowledge, he was afraid that the Gu family would refuse to allow Gu Fangting to marry him.
So now, Jiang Xun focused mostly on his studies. He must not only study hard, but he also had to spend more time learning.
The small business he ran on the side was just a small affair. He just wanted to make some money for his girlfriend to spend so that he did not appear so shabby when he interacted with the Gu and Mo families.
They had immense family enterprises. It was normal for him to be poorer than them, but if he continued to be poor, then why would the Gu family take to him?
Now, Jiang Xun was under even more pressure than Gu Fangting.
“I understand! I wouldn’t dare. Brother Jiang Xun doesn’t agree, and neither does my mother. They say that focusing on my studies is my priority now.”
Gu Qingyao said, “They’re right. You’re still young! The family doesn’t need your money. If you don’t have enough for your daily expenses, you can ask your family for help. At least, the family will continue to provide your daily expenses before you finish your studies and formally enter into the working world.”
The children from this family were all very intelligent. In an era when no one went to school, these children had been very strictly brought up since young. And with so many experts to teach them, they were all as sharp as needles.
Added to her usual guidance, these children were all very forward-thinking. At the moment, all of them had some a.s.sets. Even Mu Mu and the other children had long ceased to need pocket money from their family.
But they still gave them their share. Mo Chengrui and the other three brothers all had ways of making a little money, but Gu Qingyao still gave them pocket money regularly. This was the benefit of growing up in a wealthy family. They could train their management abilities from a young age.
Everyone in the Gu family was grown up, besides a few young ones and Gu Fangting.
Gu Fangting hurriedly said, “No need, no need. At my age, I can support myself. But my mother still provides my daily expenses. The Gu family doesn’t need to give me anything. My grandparents already give me plenty of red packet money during the new year and on special occasions.”
Gu Qingyao said, “It’s a small matter. Whether you need it or not, it’s just a small sum. But your studies are your top priority. You must not neglect them for the sake of a little money. It’s not worth it, do you understand?”
“Yes!” Gu Fangting promised. “I will study hard. Although, I really want to earn a lot of money. But Brother Jiang Xun keeps a close eye on me. He won’t let me do that.”
“It’s for your own good!” Gu Qingyao glared at her.
It looked as if that fellow, Jiang Xun, had good judgment and foresight. It showed his talent that he could compare himself to all those people in the Gu, Mo and Qiao families and still keep his head!
Everyone packed up and rested for the night. They set out early the next morning.
Ji Mingyue and Gu Jinhang formed a group, Gu Fangting and Jiang Xun formed a group and Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan formed a group. Gu Jinfeng was single, so he had no choice but to join Mo Chengrui and his brothers.
After everyone went their separate ways, Mo Beihan brought Gu Qingyao straight to the seaside.
“There is plenty of seafood here. How much do you need?”
