The Story of a Spoiled Daughter Raising a Husband

It was that sentence she just mentioned, using a new form, that made Zhen Rui think of it in an instant. The novel form of theatrical performance has attracted many visitors since its emergence, even turning previously bustling teahouses into crowded places.

Tong Qian didn't know how he knew her identity, but even if he didn't ask, she would have to tell him later anyway, so she just nodded and waited for what he was going to say next.

"If you are Miss Tong, then I can tell you with certainty that if you want me to act in a play for you, that is of course impossible. I don't have that kind of acting ability. At most, I can only recite scripts and tell some strange stories. If you have any other needs, I can help you."

After receiving his affirmation, Tong Qian nodded and told him about her plans. Seeing the joy gradually blooming in his eyes, she knew that he would accept the plan and that it would succeed.

When Zhen Rui heard her plan, he was shocked. He had never thought that two contradictory things could be combined to form a way that could attract more customers. But could he really do it in such a special way?

Despite having such doubts, he still nodded and agreed to the task. If he did it, he might be able to witness such a grand scene, but if he didn't try, when the teahouse where Tong Qian was located was bustling with customers, he would only be able to continue to be a listener.

With great anticipation, he asked, "Miss Tong, although I don't know what the outcome will be, I'm willing to try with you on something I've never done before. I just want to know what I should do, or rather, what preparations I should make now."

Hearing him agree so readily, Tong Qian felt a surge of relief. She hadn't really had any expectations for today, but unexpectedly, she had solved one of the things she had been longing for.

Thinking of this, a smile involuntarily spread across my face, and I suddenly felt a temporary sense of relief. However, I should also put more effort into writing the script and try to innovate the performance styles that I can use.

If you think about it carefully, you should complete the tasks in the Treasure Trove of Merchants when you have time. This way, you can get more content and have more choices in the future.

While pondering this in his heart, he said aloud, "As for what needs to be done, I will come and tell you in a few days. You just need to have this plan in mind for now. I just don't want the person I finally found to be taken away by other teahouse owners. After that, I may never find someone like him again who dares to speak his mind."

After settling the matter, the two discussed their views on the issue. Zhen Rui would occasionally offer suggestions that Tong Qian found particularly useful, while they drank tea and commented on the problems the storyteller on stage had during his performance.

After listening to the story told on stage, Tong Qian and Zhen Rui had a general idea of ​​what they wanted to say, so they got up and left. Tong Qian went to the place she had arranged to meet Ji Xiuping, while Zhen Rui went home.

After seeing Ji Xiuping, Tong Qian couldn't wait to tell him about the two things she had handled that day. After she finished speaking, she looked straight at him, afraid that he would think that her decision that day was a bit hasty.

However, what Ji Xiuping heard was quite different from what Tong Qian had worried about. When Tong Qian stared at him, he didn't say anything, but just looked around her before asking, "Qian'er, when you went to see those children, did anything go wrong? Did they make things difficult for you? Were you not hurt?"

Seeing how concerned Ji Xiuping was about her, Tong Qian felt a little pleased. Her little brother always put her first, no matter what. At this moment, she suddenly realized that his expression just now was not because her decision was wrong, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

He shook his head and said, "It's nothing. They are just children from families with financial difficulties. They don't have any bad intentions, and they are all very cute. If you want to be honest, how are they any different from me? If I hadn't met you, I probably wouldn't even be as good as them." As he said this, his excited expression suddenly dimmed slightly.

Ji Xiuping looked at her, wanting to say something, but not knowing how to start, so he could only stand beside her.

Tong Qian's emotions were fleeting; she quickly composed herself and, while talking, led Ji Xiuping to the only road back to the village. They found the children waiting there, and seeing their refreshed appearance, a rare, heartwarming smile spread across her face.

After being tidied up, each child looked completely different. Although they wore simple clothes, they had a different feel to them and were so different from the children I had just seen. Even if someone who knew them stood up now, they might not recognize them as the children they had been before.

The children were very nervous when they saw Tong Qian appear with a brother they hadn't seen before. Their eyes followed Tong Qian closely. Even Li Ziyi was a little at a loss. However, even when someone asked them what was wrong, they couldn't say anything.

In this extremely quiet atmosphere, Tong Qian spoke up: "Children, this is the older brother I just told you about. We'll have him name you after we've settled in."

With that said, he took them and Ji Xiuping to the courtyard they had already bought. On the way there, he also asked Ji Xiuping to help them come up with a name based on each child's visible characteristics or what they wanted.

Looking at Tong Qian's expression, Ji Xiuping couldn't help but smile indulgently and nodded in agreement. Even if she didn't say it herself, how could he refuse if she really needed it?
