The casual life of the flat space
Chapter 168 You Have to Finish the Work You Have Done
"You mean, the money she got wasn't given by you? She earned it herself?" Shopkeeper Xiang was a little surprised.
"Isn't it? Do you think it's so easy to collect mountain products? Of course, Manager Zhang of Chunfutang is also a good person and is willing to help the child. But she has also suffered a lot and suffered a lot! In the end, she spent all the money she earned on an old man like me! I thought she was taking care of the younger generation, but it turned out that I was the one being taken care of!"
Shopkeeper Xiang was silent for a while, holding the tea bowl and sipping it. He really didn't expect this. Although he liked Bai Tieying's quick mind, to be honest, looking at her dress and knowing her relationship with Doctor Bai, he always thought that the money for making clothes and buying things was given by Doctor Bai.
He knew that Brother Bai was not short of money. He thought that maybe Brother Bai had been alone for so many years and suddenly had a family, which led him to spoil the child a little. Even if the child was a little extravagant, didn't he do anything bad? On the contrary, it was considered that all the money was used to take care of Brother Bai.
I didn't expect that this was her own money! How much mountain products did she sell? Apart from other things, the things she ordered in their shop this time were worth more than 200 taels! Brother Bai also said that most of them were left with him, so how much did this kid earn?
One month! Only one month! The profit is catching up with Sijixin here, oh no, it should be higher than Sijixin! The more Xiang thought about it, the more excited he became. He carefully put down the tea bowl in his hand and said carefully:
"Brother, I really didn't expect Tieying to be so capable! To be honest with you, after she came to my place last time, I liked her very much and wondered if I could get closer to you.
You just saw my little grandson. It's not that I favor him. This child is quite capable. The only problem is that he is the youngest in the family. As a result, the last time I saw Tieying, I thought, if I had Tieying's smart head to help me and give the children a push while I am still alive, then I really wouldn't worry about Chengjian.
But after hearing what you said about Tieying's ability, I feel embarrassed to say this. But brother, we have known each other for so many years, you know what kind of person I am, and my little grandson is really good. Do you think it is possible to let the children get in touch with him on their own? If Tieying is also interested in this, then I will definitely do my best to help him!"
Uncle felt that what Shopkeeper Xiang said just now was not right, and this time it confirmed his guess, so he naturally said: "Brother, it's just like what you said, we have known each other for many years, if we can go one step further, then I can let go without worry.
But Tieying had said before that she just wanted to support her brother's education and help him get married. This was the only way to fulfill the wishes of her parents when they were alive. This was one of the reasons.
Secondly, this child is smart, but he also has shortcomings, that is, smart people have their own ideas. If the two of them can really have a result, it would be fine, but if... After all, Tieying is only ten years old this year. If this doesn't work out, wouldn't it delay Cheng Jian's child?"
"Brother, since ancient times, marriages have always been decided by parents and matchmakers. You are their elder now, so you should be able to make the decision. Of course, I understand your dilemma. After all, you don't have a deep relationship with them, and you are afraid that any conflicts will affect the relationship between you and your grandchildren.
But what I just said was not a sudden thought. I really think highly of Tieying, so I also considered Tieying's age. But getting engaged at the age of ten is not too young, and she is already twelve in lunar age. I also asked Cheng Jian, and he agreed to get married at the age of twenty. By then, Tieying would be fifteen, and seventeen in lunar age, so it would not be too late.
I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. We're all doing this for the sake of the child, so I won't be shameless this time. Let's put it aside for now. As long as Tieying doesn't refuse to contact Chengjian, we can talk about other things in two years. What do you think?"
Since Manager Xiang had said this, Uncle naturally had nothing to say, and he was even secretly delighted by his old friend's vision. So he said, "Okay, then I won't tell Tieying for now, let's wait two years before we talk."
Although the result was not satisfactory, and Bai Tieying's parents were gone, which made him a little regretful. But he thought again, doesn't this also show that this child is capable? What is he asking for? Isn't it just to have the ability to help Cheng Jian's granddaughter-in-law! So he didn't dwell on it, and went back to ask Xiang Chengjian what he thought.
It's no wonder that he favors this little grandson. He is exactly like him when he was a child. Although he is a little immature, he has his own ideas and is willing to listen to others' opinions. Xiang Chengjian also said that he doesn't mind that Bai Tieying has no parents, and he is willing to get along with her for a few years. Besides, as long as he is excellent, even if the two of them don't work out after a few years, he can find a more suitable partner.
After listening to Xiang Chengjian's words, Shopkeeper Xiang showed some partiality to this little grandson, but that's not the point. Bai Tieying was about to leave after packing up, but unexpectedly, the eldest lady of the Zhou family sent Mrs. Zhou to deliver a visiting card, saying that their ancestor wanted to chat with Bai Tieying, and asked Doctor Bai and Bai Tieying if they could. There was no other way, as he had to finish the work he had taken on, so Bai Tieying took some things and followed the Zhou family's carriage.
This time, of course, they entered through the main gate. As soon as they got off the carriage, the gift was taken over by Mrs. Zhou. It was an ordinary wooden box, and it was very light. Mrs. Zhou had been with the eldest lady for most of her life. Usually, when someone gave her a gift, she would take a look at the box and weigh it, and she could guess what was inside.
But this young lady Bai really doesn't play by the rules. She dug up the tree when I asked her to buy some cherries. Today, she handed in an invitation again. Since she knew that I was coming to Zhou's house, Doctor Bai wouldn't be unable to take out a good box. How could it be such a hastily made thing that could barely be called a box? She really couldn't guess what was inside.
Bai Tieying walked with Mrs. Zhou and chatted with her casually, thinking that the Zhou family's courtyard was really big. Her space replication radius was ten feet. Uncle's South City Medical Clinic was not small. She could replicate two or three courtyards like that. But in the Zhou family, even the width could not be replicated, let alone the length. Since the area was not small, there would naturally be many people living there. With more people, there would be more trouble! No wonder Uncle was no longer willing to come.
"Hello, Grandma Zhou! How has the old ancestor been doing these days?" Bai Tieying saw Madam Zhou standing in the corridor and walked up to her quickly to greet her.
"Oh, the old ancestor has been talking about you these past two days! I really can't refuse, so I'm bothering you to come, right?"
"Grandma Zhou, please don't say it's troublesome. The old ancestor likes me and I like the old ancestor too. We are...friends who are close regardless of age!"
