No matter how sensational the Qi family's affairs were, Fu Man'er didn't care anymore; now she was focused all her attention on Wang Jingjing.

The night before, Wang Jingjing came to tell Fu Man'er, somewhat coyly, that she was getting married.

This news truly shocked Fu Man'er. She knew that there was something going on between Wang Jingjing and Manager Chen.

She hadn't even had a chance to ask clearly before they were getting married.

"I was busy at the fabric shop the other day, so I didn't have time to tell you." Wang Jingjing was genuinely shy, and her tone softened considerably as she spoke.

Actually, there was a time when she wanted to say something, but she was interrupted. Then something happened at the cloth shop, so she and Manager Chen devoted themselves to the cloth shop.

It was only in the last couple of days, when things were almost resolved, that she remembered this matter after her family mentioned it.

"How come it's so fast?" The date Wang Jingjing mentioned was only a month away, so the timeframe was extremely tight.

Wang Jingjing sighed, "My grandma had her fortune told, and the best time is in a month. Otherwise, we'll have to wait another two years."

"Huh?" Fu Man'er opened her mouth wide in surprise, but when she thought that this matter was done by Grandma Wang Jingjing, it was not surprising.

It's not that Grandma Wang doesn't love her granddaughter; on the contrary, she loves her granddaughter the most, so she takes the matter of her granddaughter Chu's marriage very seriously.

The old lady hasn't left the village much in the past two years, but since Wang Jingjing is getting married, she made a special trip to the town to find a master who is said to be very accurate in fortune telling, and he calculated an auspicious wedding day for Wang Jingjing.

This calculation revealed the two dates; the first one was too rushed, and the second one was too long.

After discussing it, the two sets of parents decided that it was better to do it sooner rather than later. Chen's grandmother was the only elder left in the Chen family, and she wanted to see her grandson get married and have children before she died.

If they get married two years later, how long will she have to wait?

The Wang family also had their own concerns. If they waited another two years, their daughter would be too old to get married now, and this age would be the most suitable for her.

Wang Jingjing's mother even said that if it really didn't work out, they could wait another year or two before getting married.

The first person to disagree was Grandma Wang, who even pulled Wang Jingjing's mother aside.

“The master said that this day is good for our Jingjing. If a girl gets married on this day, she will not be bullied in her husband’s family, her husband will love her, and her life will be smooth sailing.”

Wang Jingjing's mother laughed as she listened. "Mom, those masters were just saying nice things to you."

Grandma Wang's eyes widened. "Such a good day, isn't it? The master doesn't say any other day is good, only this one."

The old lady was quite old, and Wang Jingjing's mother didn't want to argue with her. Besides, she knew that the old lady genuinely wanted Wang Jingjing to be well.

However, she is now facing a dilemma: "It's only been a little over a month, isn't that too rushed?"

To everyone's surprise, Grandma Wang waved her hand and said, "You people are supposed to be out and about all the time. There's a saying that money can make the devil turn the millstone. Don't even mention a month. Even if you're getting married tomorrow, as long as the money is in place, I'll still handle everything perfectly for you."

Wang Jingjing's mother seemed unable to find a rebuttal for a moment, and even felt that her mother-in-law's words seemed to make no mistake.

The Wang family and the Xu family have always had a close relationship, and the Wang family has always followed in the footsteps of the Xu family. Although they are not as wealthy as the Xu family now, they still have a considerable amount of savings.

More importantly, this family has come from a poor background, and even though they are now wealthy, they are not extravagant or wasteful; they have plenty of money.

They don't usually have any big expenses, so Grandma Wang's saying that money can make the devil turn the millstone is really not an exaggeration. Their Wang family can afford to spend this amount of money.

When Manager Chen saw that the Wang family was in such a state, he knew he couldn't back down. He only had an elderly grandmother, and he was busy with the cloth shop, so the Wang family helped him take over the wedding arrangements.

Manager Chen wished he could offer up all his savings to show his sincerity.

"So, you two are just going to sit back and wait to get married, like you're doing nothing?" After listening for a while, Fu Man'er concluded.

That's right. As soon as the wedding date was set, the Chen and Wang families started making arrangements, while the couple getting married seemed to be busy in the fabric shop as if nothing was wrong.

"Who said that?" Wang Jingjing retorted. Fu Man'er pricked up her ears, wanting to know what other tasks could be assigned to Wang Jingjing.

Then Wang Jingjing said, "My grandma and mother are now bringing the embroiderers to my side every day, measuring me here and there."

"I suspect they took all the fabric from our cloth shop back with them. So much fabric, it hurts my eyes to look at it."

Wang Jingjing had already spent the whole day looking at fabrics at the fabric shop, and there was still more to see at home. She felt like she was turning into a walking piece of fabric.

Fu Man'er felt ashamed. It seemed that Wang Jingjing was even more comfortable being a hands-off manager than she was, not even wanting to take care of the wedding dress.

Before long, the managers of the cloth shop came one after another to ask Fu Man'er for instructions.

Fu Man'er sat there listening only halfway through, which seemed strange.

Wang Jingjing and Steward Qi had stood together before, but ever since Fu Man'er learned that they were getting married, she felt that they were being too clingy.

For example, when Manager Chen secretly looked at Wang Jingjing, Wang Jingjing discovered him, and then Manager Chen became shy and embarrassed, looking away.

That was bad enough, but after a short while, his eyes involuntarily drifted towards Wang Jingjing again.

As soon as they turned around, their eyes met, they smiled at each other, and then reluctantly looked away.

Fu Man'er felt that there seemed to be sparks flying when they looked at each other.

What's even more outrageous is that Fu Man'er, while listening, unintentionally saw them again, and the two of them got much closer. Wang Jingjing actually reached out and hooked the little finger of Steward Chen.

Qi Guan had dodged for a while beforehand, and then suddenly reached out and gently tapped Wang Jingjing.

The two of them had been playing like this for a while, both with their heads down and pursed lips smiling, completely unaware that Fu Man'er above them had already turned pale.

What's that smell? It's so sour and stinky.

The steward, who was speaking, watched as Fu Man'er's face grew increasingly sour, and spoke with extreme caution, afraid that he might say something wrong and be scolded by the master.

Even after the last word was spoken, the landlord didn't say anything. He hurriedly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stepped aside.

Influenced by Wang Jingjing and Steward Chen, Fu Man'er's mind wandered several times, until everyone had finished speaking.

She simply waved her hand and said, "Okay, I understand. What you all said makes sense. Let's discuss the details with Steward Chen and Steward Wang."

Hmph, it's not just you two who want to be hands-off managers, I want to be too.

The two people mentioned were so engrossed in their game that everyone's attention fell on them.

Manager Chen was a bit too thin-skinned; his face didn't turn red, but his ears were so red they looked like they were about to bleed.

"Yes, yes, we'll listen to the boss." I don't know what everyone said, but the boss just spoke, so listening to the boss is always the right thing to do.

Fu Man'er wanted to roll her eyes, but after thinking about it, she glared at Wang Jingjing instead. This shameless woman acted as if nothing had happened and even smiled at Fu Man'er.

After the managers left, it was lunchtime, and Wang Jingjing spent the rest of the time having lunch with Fu Man'er.

So Fu Man'er habitually asked, "Jingjing, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

Without Xu Yi to restrain her, Fu Man'er ate to her heart's content. She wouldn't eat proper meals, but would instead eat snacks from street stalls. She and Wang Jingjing often ate until their bellies were round and full.

"Man'er." Wang Jingjing became shy again. Seeing her like that, Fu Man'er felt that she probably wouldn't be able to eat.

"I'm going to eat at the little shop where we ate yesterday with Manager Chen."

Well, Fu Man'er still managed to roll her eyes.

With Steward Chen around, my good friend Fu Man'er has to take a backseat now.

After Wang Jingjing finished speaking, she took small steps to find Manager Chen who was waiting nearby. The two of them talked about something and smiled at each other. Then they left Fu Man'er aside and went to eat something delicious.

"What a womanizer!" Fu Man'er sneered at Wang Jingjing's retreating figure, but in her heart she was happy that her friend had found a partner.

"Miss, the young master is here and waiting for you at the door. He said he wants to take you out to eat." Shuangxi said as she came in from outside.

Then I saw her young lady leap onto the window, cheering excitedly, "Brother!"

Xu Yi, riding on his horse, looked up upon hearing this and saw the little girl smiling radiantly, her hands gripping the window frame, looking eager to try.

Xu Yi knew what she was thinking, opened his arms to her, and in the blink of an eye, Fu Man'er jumped down from the second floor. Xu Yi caught her steadily in his arms.

"This is so much fun!" the little girl grinned.

"Naughty." Xu Yi's expression softened considerably, but even so, he was still willing to let Fu Man'er play.

Xu Yi placed Fu Man'er in front of him, letting her lean against his chest, then turned his horse around and rode away.

Shuangxi, who was on the second floor, was stunned by Fuman'er's act of jumping off the second floor. It wasn't until she heard Fuman'er's laughter that she realized her worries were unnecessary.

With the young master around, how could the young lady possibly get hurt?

Shuangxi watched the two ride away on horseback, thinking to herself, "The young master and young lady have such a good relationship, I'm so envious."

Knowing that the young lady had a good appetite, they were not afraid of wasting time and insisted on taking her there.

Hmm? Eat?

Shuangxi's smile froze instantly, and she hurriedly shouted, "Miss, Miss, wait a minute, have you forgotten about me?"

Fu Man'er had promised her earlier that she and Miss Wang would take her to experience the street food.

As a result, Shuangxi didn't dare to eat all of her breakfast, saving her room for a big lunch.

As Miss Wang went out with Steward Chen, Shuangxi thought to herself, at least her young lady was still there.

Now look what's happened, her young lady has also been taken away by the eldest young master.

The two people on horseback had disappeared from sight, and Shuang Xi stamped her foot in a huff.

Hmph, she'll find someone to take her out for a good meal. These days, if you don't have someone to take you, you can't even enjoy good food.
