Chapter 16: The Wang Family Does Not Do Anything Honest and Upright

"You just need to know that no matter what you want to do, I will not stop you. If you like the Koi Bun business, I will never force you to stop." Xiao Yongyan promised.

These words came from the heart. After hearing them, Lin Xi found them incredible at first, but then he was moved.

In this male-dominated society, who would dare to say that he is willing to let his woman show her face in public, let alone a man like Xiao Yongyan who grew up in a wealthy family.

"I'll consider this matter." Lin Xi agreed.

Even if Xiao Yongyan didn't say it, she had no intention of continuing the Koi steamed bun business. For her, getting up in the middle of the night every day to knead the dough and make steamed buns was really tiring.

Anyway, there are other secret recipes in her system mall, so there is no need to make steamed buns.

But if she wants to quit this business, she doesn't plan to put it aside. She would rather find someone from the village to take over the business.

The Wang family, which had caused trouble several times recently, was obviously not a good choice. Lin Xi thought of letting Wu Erniu come.

This little girl is young, smart and nimble, making her the most suitable person to take on this job.

I just don’t know whether Aunt Wu and her family are willing.

With his own ideas, Lin Xi went straight to the Wu family.

Aunt Wu was very happy to see Lin Xi coming and hurriedly made tea for Lin Xi.

"Don't be busy, Aunt Wu. I came here this time because I have something very important to tell you." Lin Xi looked at Aunt Wu with a smile.

Aunt Wu was stunned. What important matter could Lin Xi have?

"Aunt, it's actually like this..."

The two were talking in the Wu family's yard, but they didn't expect to be heard by a little guy outside the wall.

The little guy lay at the foot of the wall and listened for a long time, then ran back home panting, and shouted as soon as he entered the house, "Grandma! I just learned something amazing!"

When Mrs. Wang heard her grandson's voice, she hurried out to greet him, "Oh, my dear grandson, you know what, you ran so fast."

"Grandma, I just saw the sister who sells big fish steamed buns go to Aunt Wu's house." The little guy lay down next to Grandma Wang's ear and imitated what he just heard.

Wang Xingxiong, who was standing next to him, also heard this and his expression changed immediately.

Old Lady Wang scolded her without any hesitation, "This little girl, when we came to her house, she refused to give us the recipe for Koi Mantou no matter how hard we tried to persuade her. Now, she's giving it to the Wu family for free."

Wang Xingxiong had a gloomy face, "Mom, I think this Lin Xi is clearly targeting our family."

"You don't even need to tell me that. People in the same profession are enemies. That's what our ancestors said." Old Mrs. Wang's eyes rolled around. "Big brother, go to the town and call the third brother back."

Wang Xingxiong felt a little strange. What did her mother mean by asking the third child to come back at this time?

Old Mrs. Wang looked at her son speechlessly, thinking that it was no wonder that this useless boy couldn't study well. If the third son was here, he would definitely understand what she was talking about immediately.

"The girl from the Wu family is old enough, isn't it time for her to find a husband?" Old Mrs. Wang said indifferently.

After the old lady's advice, Wang Xingxiong immediately understood his mother's plan.

"I'm going to town now!"

…

Lin Xi moved quickly and said he would teach Wu Erniu the technique of making koi buns, and started immediately.

So every day Wu Erniu hardly had to do much housework. She would just wake up, make breakfast and go to Lin Xi's house.

Lin Xi was very patient when teaching students and he wanted to explain everything to Wu Erniu bit by bit.

At first, Wu Erniu thought she only needed to learn how to make koi buns, but she didn’t expect Lin Xi to tell her that there were dozens of different shapes and she had to learn all of them.

Wu Erniu had no industrial awareness, but she vaguely understood that if there was only one way, then she could only make money from that one way, but if there were many ways, then she could make money for a long time.

What Lin Xi taught her was a business that she could do for a long time.

In this way, Wu Erniu studied more seriously and carefully. After finishing her studies at Linxi's place during the day, she would continue to ponder when she returned home at night. It can be said that there was no room for anything else in her mind except steamed buns.

On this day, Wu Erniu had just arrived at Lin Xi's house not long ago when she heard a noisy sound coming from afar.

However, neither she nor Lin Xi cared about it and just thought it was something happening in someone else's family.

But after a while, a friend of Wu Erniu who she played well with knocked on the Lin family's door in a hurry.

"Erniu, why are you still making steamed buns here? Someone has come to your house to propose marriage."

When Wu Erniu heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She had never heard her mother talk about anything related to marriage, so how come someone suddenly came to propose marriage?

Lin Xi keenly felt that there was something fishy about this matter, so he put down the dough in his hand and said to Wu Erniu, "Let's go and take a look."

When the two of them arrived at the door of the Wu family, there was already a group of people gathered at the door.

When this group of people saw Lin Xi and the others coming, they consciously made a way out.

Lin Xi looked at the matchmaker in red who was drooling in the yard, and suddenly felt a little disgusted.

The matchmaker was also very sharp-eyed. When she saw Lin Xi come in, she didn't even notice Wu Erya standing beside her.

"Oh, this must be the girl from the Wu family. She is so pretty. She and the young master from the Wang family are a perfect match. I have been a matchmaker for so many years, but I have never seen such a well-matched couple." The matchmaker smiled so brightly that her teeth were showing, and she looked Lin Xi up and down.

Normally married women would wear their hair in a bun, but Lin Xi was a modern person at heart, so she didn't know how to wear her hair in a bun. She just tied her hair up like Erniu, which caused the matchmaker's misunderstanding.

The people around couldn't stand it anymore. Where did the Wang family find this matchmaker? They didn't even recognize her.

"Well, the girl next to you is the Wu family's girl."

The matchmaker's face froze instantly. She smiled awkwardly and walked to Wu Erniu. "The girl is very well-behaved and looks like she is a skilled person."

Lin Xi couldn't bear to hear the matchmaker's nagging any more, so she walked over to Aunt Wu and asked in a low voice, "Aunt, what's going on?"

Aunt Wu herself was also confused. "I don't know either. I wasn't informed beforehand. Suddenly a matchmaker came to my house with gifts to propose marriage. I didn't know what to say."

There was something strange about this matter, but since the other party was proposing to Wu Erniu, Lin Xi couldn't say too much, but she had to clarify some things.

"You said you were here to propose marriage, but who is the man? He is so unkind that he sent someone to come here rashly without letting anyone know beforehand." Lin Xi took the opportunity to pull Wu Erniu behind him and asked with a smile.

Generally speaking, when two families in the village want to get married, the adults of the two families usually communicate with each other first. After confirming their general intentions, the man will then find a matchmaker to come to their house.

It is actually quite rude to invite a matchmaker to your home without any prior notice.

After Lin Xi said this, people around him immediately started talking.
