The Prince's Beloved Little Wife

After settling into his study in the Prince's mansion, Ouyang Han picked up his phone again, lightly tapping the screen to send Chen Mengyao a WeChat message, requesting that she send over several hundred more phones to provide for all the talents who were about to visit. Chen Mengyao readily agreed. She immediately retrieved a thousand brand-new phones from her spatial storage and exchanged them for a thousand SIM cards. Since she had already used up all the cards from the previous exchange, her points balance was nearly depleted, with only a few thousand points remaining. She carefully packed all the phones and cards into boxes, then teleported these boxes to Ouyang Han via teleportation.

Soon, Ouyang Han's study was filled with these boxes, resembling a small mountain. Seeing this, he immediately summoned several servants and instructed them to move the items to an empty room next to his own. The servants worked quickly and efficiently, soon arranging all the boxes properly.

After finishing these matters, Ouyang Han called Chen Mengyao and shared his experiences of the day. He mentioned that his siblings and his father, the Emperor, not only dispatched many people to help him but also generously donated a large sum of money. Upon hearing this, Chen Mengyao was filled with respect for Ouyang Han's family. She remarked that such united and loving members of the royal family were truly rare, and she felt incredibly fortunate to be in such a loving and warm place.

Next, Ouyang Han inquired about the progress of the entertainment center project from Chen Mengyao. He revealed that he had found several veterans who had previously run casinos and brothels, and believed they were very suitable to assist Chen Mengyao in building the entertainment center. Chen Mengyao was very moved upon hearing this. She said she would send the detailed plan to Ouyang Han later and that he didn't need to rush. At the same time, she offered to provide some board games and mahjong rules for them to study, and immediately sent these games, mahjong sets, and instruction manuals to Ouyang Han. Ouyang Han decided to leave these items in the study for now and have them moved to the large courtyard the next day.

In addition, Chen Mengyao reminded Ouyang Han to recruit staff from the restaurant and jewelry store as soon as possible to train them in the courtyard. Ouyang Han readily agreed, saying he would instruct the relevant personnel to handle the matter the next day.

While discussing gambling, Chen Mengyao suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thinking of modern scratch-off lottery tickets and welfare lotteries. She planned to open a lottery station, donating the proceeds to charity, and that this station would be managed by the emperor and the state. However, to realize this idea, she first needed to popularize Arabic numerals so that everyone could recognize and understand them. She told Ouyang Han about her idea and sought his opinion. Ouyang Han thought the idea was very creative, but also worried that Chen Mengyao would be even busier because of it.

Chen Mengyao further proposed that she want to open a class to teach numerical knowledge, which would not only make it easier for everyone to do accounting, but also lay a foundation for future schooling. She dreams of opening a school to cultivate talents in various fields, such as embroidery, carpentry, blacksmithing, medicine, accounting, and animal husbandry and planting, so that everyone can have a skill and be self-sufficient.

After hearing her ideals, Ouyang Han was deeply moved by her greatness and selflessness. He knew these plans were all for the benefit of the people, but he couldn't bear to see Chen Mengyao so overworked. So, he said gently, "We can consider opening a lottery station. We can modify scratch-off tickets to suit our times, for example, we can print patterns of flowers, plants, insects, and fish on them. If several patterns match, it's considered a win, and we can reward you with a certain amount of money. As for opening a school, although I think the prospects are very good, I don't want you to be too tired. You're already very busy, and if you add school affairs, I'm worried you won't be able to handle it. We can start by opening a class to teach numeracy, and we can talk about the other things about the school later. Once you've trained the students and don't have to do everything yourself, I'll prepare for it with you, okay? My dear Yao Yao."

After listening quietly to what Ouyang Han said, Chen Mengyao pondered for a moment. After careful consideration, she finally nodded, indicating her agreement and willingness to accept Ouyang Han's proposal.

Just then, Ouyang Han seemed to remember something important. He frowned slightly and slowly said, "Shouldn't we give this courtyard a suitable and catchy name? Also, if we're going to form an organization with the talents who are coming soon, we'll need to give that organization a name that is both pleasant to hear and meaningful!"

Hearing this, Chen Mengyao's gaze became focused. She began to seriously consider these two key questions, various possible options flashing through her mind, but she couldn't find an answer that truly satisfied her. After a while, Chen Mengyao raised her head, looking at Ouyang Han with a determined gaze, and said, "I think what you said makes perfect sense! However, it's probably difficult for the two of us to come up with a brilliant idea by just racking our brains here. How about this, let's tell my brother and the others about this, and ask everyone to discuss it together? As the saying goes, 'Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang,' many hands make light work, and I believe that by pooling everyone's wisdom, we can definitely come up with a better name for the courtyard and organization!"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Han's eyes immediately flashed with admiration, and he smiled as he replied, "Yes, your idea is indeed excellent! Let's do as you say. I believe that with everyone's concerted efforts, we will surely be able to give our courtyard and organization the most perfect name."

After all the important matters had been properly discussed, the conversation naturally turned to the wedding that was just around the corner, a wedding that everyone was eagerly anticipating. A quick calculation showed that only a few days remained until their big day, making every minute and second seem exceptionally precious.

Overjoyed, Ouyang Han expressed his fervent anticipation for the wedding to Chen Mengyao on the other end of the phone. His voice, like the warmest sunshine in spring, traveled through the receiver to Chen Mengyao's heart: "My dearest Yaoyao, I really can't wait to marry you and make you my bride!" Then, a series of sweet words, as beautiful as poetry, flowed from his mouth, as if they were the most moving melody in the world.

He said, "We've only been apart for a short time, but my heart has already flown to your side. I wish we could be together every moment!" And Chen Mengyao on the other end of the phone? Her soft voice was equally full of affection as she replied to Ouyang Han, "Yichen, I miss you so much too!"

The two of them talked back and forth on the phone, pouring out their longing and love for each other. They recalled every little detail of how they met, got to know each other, and fell in love. Those beautiful moments were like the bright stars in the night sky, illuminating the softest corners of each other's hearts.

Finally, after another heartfelt exchange, despite their deep reluctance, they had to temporarily end their affectionate phone call. However, the profound longing remained, fueling their even greater anticipation for their upcoming wedding.
