After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

Fang Tong heard the shopkeeper's words, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the next sentence.

"In two days, our boss will come to discuss it in person."

Seeing that he was about to say something, the shopkeeper raised his hand and said, "Brother Fang, you have two days to think carefully about how to tell our boss when the time comes. But listen to my advice, there is an old saying that goes, 'It is good to lean on a big tree for shade.' Your cake business... there are many people targeting you now."

This was said bluntly, and Fang Tong didn't think too much about it because it was true.

During this period, many teahouses and restaurants approached him privately and stopped his ox cart on the way to deliver goods.

Not only did some people place orders, but there were also people who wanted to buy houses. However, he didn't know any of these people's backgrounds and didn't dare to agree easily.

Besides, it’s useless to agree to it, as we can’t do it ourselves now.

Fang Tong was heavy-hearted when he left.

In the evening, he picked up his son and daughter from the academy. As soon as the ox cart arrived home, Fang Nanzhi jumped off.

Find second uncle!

On the way, he heard his father say that his second uncle had been working on the chair during the day and it was already formed, but he had been looking forward to it all the way and was worried about the slippery road, so he didn't dare to ask his father to hurry.

She ran straight into the room. Fang Yin was not there, but there was a recliner right in the middle of the room!

"Wow!"

She found that the color of the chair was different from before, darker?

At this time, Fang Yin ran in. Seeing that she had returned, he pointed at the recliner and said, "Done!"

What did you do?

Fang Nanzhi was stunned for a moment before realizing that the oil had dried up. When her brother told them, he said that if you want to give something as a gift, it is best to apply a layer of tung oil on it so that even if it is made of wood, it will not rot easily.

No wonder she thought the color was wrong, it turned out it was oiled!

"How's it going? Well done, right?"

Fang Tong walked in and said, "I specially found some tung oil from the county town today and brought it back to your uncle to paint. I was worried that it wouldn't dry in half a day because of the cold weather, but I didn't expect it to dry so quickly!"

Fang Nanzhi was so happy that she sat on it for a while. With a little effort, the recliner began to rock slowly.

"It's so comfortable! I can take it to Grandpa Zhou later. That's great!"

She got off the recliner, and Fang Tong also tried it on. It was nice, but a little big, so it was not practical for ordinary people. It was just the right gift for a family like Mr. Zhou. After all, it was a token of the little girl's love.

As a father, he could see at a glance how much Mr. Zhou loved his daughter, especially since she had prepared so carefully this time. Although it was her family who helped, if he were Mr. Zhou, he would definitely be happy.

At this time, Qian Fengping came in. Fang Tong turned around and saw that she was wearing new clothes and her hair style was different from that during the day.

Seeing Fang Tong staring at her, Qian Fengping felt embarrassed: "What are you looking at? Hurry up, take my second brother to change into new clothes. Zhizhi, come here!"

"Okay, let's put on new clothes!" The little girl ran out with her hands raised.

When Fang Tong brought his daughter here, the father and daughter together had very little luggage.

The weather is getting colder, so Qian Fengping of course has to make plans for the whole family. The new clothes were made last month when she asked Fang Tong to go to the county town and bring back the cloth and cotton. While she was working at home, she started making new cotton-padded clothes one after another, and finally she had made clothes for the whole family!

Cotton-padded clothes are worn every winter, and she made them very thick.

Everyone fits perfectly, except for the two children who are a little bigger because they are still growing.

The whole family wore new clothes and brought gifts, and went to Zhou's house happily.

They have a lot of things to do at home, and the villagers are curious and come to the Zhou house from time to time to see what the house looks like. They haven't been here for a long time, so it's really surprising at first glance.

I have also been to Fangtongfu City. It is not for nothing that I spend every day in this county town. Making money by doing business is one thing, but dealing with people really broadens my horizons.

"Wow, such a big house...it must have at least three entrances."

The main gate of Zhou's house faces south. On the right side, there is a row of walls surrounded by blue bricks and gray tiles. These are the only walls that can be seen unless you enter the house. Outsiders cannot peek inside at all.

Before reaching the door, you can hear the hustle and bustle inside. Butler Zhou is standing at the door to welcome the guests. When he sees Fang Tong's family, the smile on his face immediately becomes more sincere.

"I'm late because of something at home! I hope you don't mind!"

Butler Zhou quickly waved his hand and invited them in.

After entering the house, the second gate was in front of her. Fang Nanzhi looked left and right and saw two archways. From here, she could only see trees inside. There was a picture on the wall to the right of the second gate. She took a closer look and asked Qin Yan in a low voice.

"Brother, is that the 'shadow wall' mentioned in the book?"

Qin Yan nodded approvingly. The little girl knew that she was right and became happy all of a sudden.

Entering from the second gate is the main courtyard. Opposite is the main house, and the left and right wing rooms are opposite each other, all with ear rooms. To the right of the main house is the east ear room, and to the right there is a hall. Obviously, the backyard should be from there.

Qin Yan whispered, "Uncle Fang is right. It's a complete house with three entrances and three exits."

Qian Fengping saw that many women in the village had come early to help with cooking and were going in and out of the side room next to the east wing.

"Then it seems the toilet is in the west wing."

Qian Fengping was late because of something at home, but she brought a gift, so it wasn't considered rude. She stood on tiptoe to look around and went to chat with a woman she was on good terms with.

"Then Dad, we're going too!"

Fang Nanzhi and her second uncle pushed her brother towards the child.

The children from each family were not arranged to sit with their parents, but were given separate tables. Fang Nanzhi looked around and went straight to Chunhua and Erpang.

The two of them arrived early and reserved a seat for Fang Nanzhi next to them.

"Zhizhi, come quickly!"

Chunhua was so happy to see her. She felt that she played less and less with Zhizhi recently. At the beginning, she even secretly wiped her tears at home!

But recently she has gradually gotten used to it. After all, Zhizhi didn't stop playing with her, but she had to go to the county town during the day and was not in the village at all.

Fang Nanzhi missed her too and ran over quickly.

"Oh, Zhizhi, this is your new dress, it's so beautiful!" Chunhua's eyes were full of envy.

The little girl was delighted and raised her arms: "It looks good, right?"

She smiled innocently, then remembered something: "That's not right, didn't Aunt Chen buy the material too?"

When this was mentioned, Chunhua sighed: "But my elder brother and elder sister are going to get married next year, so the new clothes have to go to them first."

She hasn't even worn any new clothes yet.

Zhizhi understood. This was almost the case in the village. There were many children and they were poor. The younger ones had to pick up clothes from the older ones to wear, and the older ones had to pick up clothes from their parents. It was already good enough that Chunhua's family could still find new cloth. Many families couldn't even wear new clothes when they got married.

All her previous clothes were worn by Fang Qingya.
