After that, Second Uncle Gu wasn't in the mood to chat anymore. So, after exchanging a few polite greetings, he brought Gu Chengxi home.
But just as he left, he returned and said, "Oh, I almost forgot. There's still something I want to discuss with you."
"Do say," Gu Chengrui replied.
"Right, I heard that you drew the waterwheel. You see, we were wondering if we could help you sell it.
"At that time, our two families and the Qian family will share the profits. What do you think?"
"The waterwheel is done?" Zhou Ying asked happily. The wheat in the manor was waiting to be watered, and she was getting impatient.
"It's done. We tried to install it today, and the water test will probably take place the day after tomorrow. The chief will definitely inform you by then."
"That's great. It'll be much easier with the waterwheel."
"Indeed. Otherwise, it would be too time-consuming and laborious to fetch water from the river bit by bit."
