A blessed wife leads her husband to wealth and prosperity!
Chapter 135 Meng Xing proposes to Cao'er
When Wen Yuyu arrived in the county town, Lin He'er didn't immediately get everyone involved in their work.
Instead, they had Granny Li take Wen Yuyu on a tour of the county town to familiarize her with local life before discussing work.
After Wen Yuyu, led by Granny Li, had toured most of the county town and rested for a few days, Lin He'er prepared to let her learn how to work in the shop.
Sister Yuyu, right now there's only one shop assistant, Cao'er. If you come, you'll be doing the same work she's doing now.
Working at the shop is actually very simple; you can ask Cao'er if you don't believe me.
Just as the shop opened, Lin He'er brought Wen Yuyu into the shop.
Grass, this is Sister Yuyu. You can call her Sister Yuyu from now on.
Cao'er has become quite clever thanks to Lin He'er's training in the shop. As soon as the lady finished introducing the person standing in front of her, Cao'er smiled and called out to Wen Yuyu.
Hello, Sister Yu Yu!
Hmm, grass is good!
Wen Yuyu responded in a voice barely audible.
Sister Yuyu, being a shop assistant is not difficult at all. When I first started working in the shop, I was very nervous and didn't dare to talk to the people who came in. Later, my wife took me under her wing for a while, and I gradually realized that this job is quite simple!
All we need to do is clearly explain to the guests what they like.
Cao'er is right, Sister Yuyu, you don't need to be nervous. I used to take care of Cao'er, now Cao'er will take care of you.
At the beginning, you don't need to say much to the customers. Just listen to how Cao'er deals with people. For now, just familiarize yourself with the things in our shop.
Wen Yuyu felt less nervous when she heard that she didn't have to interact with people right away.
After arranging things for her aunt, Lin He'er naturally returned to the backyard to rest.
Although I no longer live here, I sometimes rest here when I come to help out at the shop during busy times.
Now, the backyard of the shop has basically become Meng Xing's permanent residence.
The room where Li used to live now belongs to Meng Xing.
After all, Meng Xing has to work here, and he needs a place to rest when he's tired every day.
Lin He'er entered the backyard and saw Meng Xingzheng carving something in the yard with a piece of wood.
People are so focused on their work that they don't even notice someone coming to the backyard.
When Lin He'er got closer to him, she saw that the person had actually carved a hairpin out of wood.
A hairpin? Why would Meng Xing make this? To give it as a gift?
Mengxing, who is this hairpin for?
"Madam, what brings you here?" Meng Xing heard the voice, looked up and saw his wife standing in front of him.
In a panic, he hurriedly hid the things in his hands behind his back.
I saw it! So stop hiding!
Seeing Meng Xing's flustered state, Lin He'er couldn't help but grin!
Meng Xing, do you have someone you like? You're actually making a hairpin, are you planning to give it to some girl once it's finished?
Yes, madam!
Uh……
You admitted it so directly!
Lin He'er noticed that Meng Xing's dark face seemed to have a blush on it. Good heavens, this guy is shy.
Is she really in love?
Lin He'er stared at the person and asked.
Uh-huh.
Meng Xing was so embarrassed by his wife's question that he almost lowered his head to the ground! But thinking that the woman he was asking to marry was his wife's person, he naturally couldn't care less about being ashamed and could only nod and admit it!
Let me guess who your ideal partner is?
Lin He'er stared at Meng Xing for a long while before slowly saying;
It's grass, isn't it!
Madam, how did you know?
Meng Xing remembered that he had never told anyone that he liked Cao'er.
How could I not know!
Judging from how you've been fawning over Cao'er these past two years, none of us in the family, unless we're blind, can't see it!
Oh, is it that obvious?
When Meng Xing heard his wife say this, his face turned completely red. He stood there, digging his feet into the ground, head down, not knowing how to tell his wife that he wanted to ask to marry Cao'er!
Let me think... You made all those hairpins that Cao'er is wearing!
Meng Xing: Hmm!
So the lady knew all along! I thought I was hiding it so well!
You're so thoughtful!
When Lin He'er first saw Cao'er wearing a hairpin, she suspected that it was a gift from Meng Xing.
After all, the girl's blushing and shy demeanor clearly indicated that the gift was from a member of the opposite sex.
In his own home, besides Wen Yuning, there was only Meng Xing, a grown man, who spent all day wandering around the shop.
Cao'er has always been a shopkeeper. The Lin family lives a simple life between two points, and apart from Meng Xing, they really don't know any other men.
Meng Xing stood in the courtyard and secretly glanced at the madam. Seeing that the madam was not angry, he mustered his courage and suddenly knelt down before Lin He'er, shouting loudly.
Madam, I have my heart set on Cao'er. Would you be willing to marry her to me?
After saying that, he kowtowed several times to Lin He'er.
Meng Xing, what are you doing? You don't need to kowtow to me to ask for Cao'er's hand in marriage. As long as Cao'er agrees, I won't stop you two.
Lin He'er shook her head, amused by Meng Xing's quick and decisive kowtow.
Cao'er said that she was the lady's person and could only do so with the lady's permission.
Meng Xing was quite obedient; he only needed Lin He'er to nod in agreement.
Okay, okay, I agree to marry Cao'er to you.
Lin He'er thought that Cao'er was already seventeen this year, which would be considered late marriage in ancient times.
Now that I've agreed to Meng Xing's request, that's fine.
However, besides my agreement, you also need to ask Cao'er's mother first.
Lin He'er didn't know if Zhang knew about this, but she gave Meng Xing another instruction.
Don't worry, Madam, Aunt Zhang agreed.
Upon hearing his wife's words, Meng Xing quickly responded.
Well, so the young man has already cleared the other levels and is just waiting for me to give him my final approval.
That's promising! He'll win over his mother-in-law soon!
Okay, I agree to your marriage. When you have time, have Zhang find someone to calculate an auspicious date and set the wedding date.
"Thank you, Madam." Seeing that Madam nodded in agreement, Meng Xing was so happy that he was about to kowtow to Lin He'er again.
"No, please. I've already done enough with your bowing. Don't kowtow anymore," Lin He'er said, and hurriedly returned to her room.
Now that Meng Xing had his wife's permission, he was overjoyed and had nowhere to vent his happiness. He took the wood and worked hard on it, sharing all his excitement and joy with his woodworkers!
Lin He'er stayed in the shop for a day, mainly because she was worried that Wen Yuyu wouldn't adapt well, thinking that she could take care of her if anything happened to her.
Unexpectedly, they stayed until nightfall, when the shop closed, and the aunt was fine.
It seems the person is adapting well!
The two of them went back to Songnan Lane together.
In the following days, Lin He'er did not continue to go to the shop with Wen Yuyu.
I only go to the shop occasionally to check the accounts!
Wen Yuyu has gone from being awkward at the beginning to now being able to exchange a few words with customers in the shop. Her progress has been remarkably rapid!
This completely put Lin He'er's worries at ease, as she had been keeping an eye on her aunt.
Sure enough, when people have something to do and their horizons are broadened, they no longer worry about other things.
