When Sun Ji came to Nanyang from Fenshui, Cao Xiangnan also prepared to go to Fengdu with Shen Zhengyang. Seeing Sun Ji coming from home, Cao Xiangnan knew why Sun Ji came back this time. Seeing that he looked unhappy, Cao Xiangnan asked with concern, "Aji, have you dealt with the family affairs?"

"Yes, everything has been dealt with. I proposed marriage, and the wedding is scheduled for August 15 after the Mid-Autumn Festival. It just so happens that the house at home will be built at that time, so we will hold the wedding together." Sun Ji said with visible fatigue on his face. It

was his family's idea to propose marriage. When he went back to see his grandfather and mother, he swallowed the words that were on his lips, and then it became like this now.

Hearing Sun Ji's words, Cao Xiangnan paused. Seeing that Sun Ji's face was not happy at all, he knew in his heart that he did not like this marriage from the beginning. He thought that he would reject the marriage this time when he went back, but he did not expect that he would be engaged and even the date was set. For a moment, he really did not know what to say.

"If you are free, please come to my wedding." Sun Ji forced a smile. After nearly a year in Nanyang, he had already trained himself to not show his emotions. Only in front of his own people would he reveal his emotions, but he quickly controlled himself and showed a faint smile on his face.

But not smiling is much better than smiling like this, which is embarrassing.

Gan Weiqi, who was standing at the side, looked at the laughing person in silence, with a deep face that was so deep that it was hard to see the bottom.

"Congratulations, Aji, we will definitely go to your wedding." Cao Xiangnan said with a smile, "I will prepare a big red envelope for you then."

Sun Ji was the first person under him. If he hadn't pulled Sun Ji over, there would be no Cao Xiangnan today. If Sun Ji got married, he would definitely prepare this gift.

No matter what, this marriage will happen sooner or later. It is not easy to find someone to live with. Since you have agreed to it, you must take responsibility for it like a man. As time goes by, feelings will emerge. Even if you can't love passionately, you will accompany each other like family members, with someone by your side.

Cao Xiangnan was very lucky to come to this world and meet Wanfeng, who stayed with him when he was in trouble. It is not easy for a person to find such a person to accompany you in your life, so he cherishes her very much in his heart. Similarly, he also hopes that Sun Ji can find such a person to live with him, so that life can be happy.

"What's the matter with etiquette? We are all brothers. I am very happy that you can come." Seeing Cao Xiangnan being so polite to him, Sun Ji didn't like it.

"Go, you must go, don't you think?" Cao Xiangnan asked with a smile.

He raised his eyes and met the eyes that were looking at him. In an instant, he fell into a pair of bottomless black eyes. Sun Ji was stunned, and then he turned his eyes away and joked with Cao Xiangnan, trying to ignore the eyes looking at him.

After all, Sun Ji's trip back really settled the marriage, and even the date was set. This is a fact that cannot be changed.

"Oh, yes, there is one more thing, about your mother." Sun Ji talked about the things in the Cao family compound, and Cao Xiangnan had a headache. When he came, his third brother Cao Chunqing was divorced and returned to her mother's family. With his mother's character, his third brother would not have a good life after returning. His third brother was not a simple person, and life was lively when the two of them got together.

When Sun Ji talked about the Cao Family Courtyard, Cao Xiangnan remembered that he had bought a courtyard in the town but had not told Sun Ji about it. "I bought a courtyard in the town before, and I had forgotten about it. I asked Master Feng to arrange for someone to repair it. If I go back, I can move to the town to live." He said.

"Okay." At least he can have peace of mind.

Sun Ji also felt a little sad about the Cao Family Courtyard and the people in Cao Xiangnan's family. He didn't know that Cao Chunqing was divorced until he went back to the village. No matter how he blamed it, it was still Chen Zhu, the old woman.

When Sun Ji left with Cao Xiangnan, the people who stayed behind turned around and left.

Gan Weilin stretched out his hand and scratched his head. For some reason, he found that his brother was not very happy to hear that Sun Ji was going to get married. Why should his brother be unhappy when Sun Ji was getting married? Anyway, his brother's face was the same whether he was happy or unhappy. He thought he might have seen it wrong.

Sun Ji had been away from Nanyang for a few days. When he came back, he had a lot of things to do. There were a lot of things in the store, and there were also things about the new shop.

Before Sun Ji came, Cao Xiangnan had already negotiated with the original owner of the store, but they could not reach an agreement on the price, so the store was not sold. Now that Sun Ji is back, he lets him take over so that he can prepare to go to Fengdu. Fortunately, Sun Ji came back at the agreed time and did not stay at home for too long before coming to Nanyang.

After explaining the shop to Sun Ji, Cao Xiangnan handed it over to Sun Ji.

"Aji, don't put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best." Seeing that Sun Ji has lost a lot of weight in the past six months since coming to Nanyang, Cao Xiangnan knows that he is also very hard-working. Everyone of them is very hard-working, including himself.

If you want to make money, you naturally have to work harder, and these hard work will be rewarded and worth it in the end.

"Yeah." Sun Ji knew Xiangnan was worried about him, and said with a smile, "I don't have much.

If I do something, I will do it to the best of my ability." That's right, the two of them had the same idea on this point. How can you give up halfway through a job? If you do something, you will do it to the best of your ability. Cao Xiangnan reached out and patted Sun Ji, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Would you like to drink together in the evening?"

"Okay."

The two agreed to drink together in the evening, and then went to work separately.

As soon as Sun Ji came to Nanyang from home, he didn't even take a rest, and immediately plunged into the busy work. It took him half a day to negotiate the shop. The price he gave was a little higher than Cao Xiangnan's, but lower than the other party's original price.

Facts have proved that in some things, Sun Ji is better at doing business and talking than Cao Xiangnan. At this point, Cao Xiangnan himself had to admit that Sun Ji was better at business than him.

There were many things to do in Nanyang, and Cao Xiangnan hurried to arrange things in Nanyang. He had to go to Fengdu, and it would be winter by the time he returned to Nanyang. He might not be able to take care of things here. And he had to return to Fenshui before winter, otherwise it would be very troublesome to go home.

Here Cao Xiangnan had to complain about the ancient transportation. There were no airplanes or trains, not even cars or buses. There was only a horse and a carriage to go from one end of Fengchao to the other.

He has been in this era for so long, and the farthest he has been is from Fenshui to Nanyang City, and he has never even left the territory of Feng Dynasty.

I heard that there are two big countries and some small countries besides Feng Dynasty, and the land of this world is much larger than he imagined. If he has the opportunity in the future, he must travel around Feng Dynasty and then go out of Feng Dynasty to see other places. It doesn't matter if he spends more time, but he can't think about it now.

Now the child is still young, and he still has many things to do and dreams to realize. One day, when he can let go of everything and the child grows up and can do their own things, he will let go. After

a busy day, they gathered together at the night snack stall until the sun went down and the sky just got dark. Cao Xiangnan, the good boss, invited all the employees in the store to come out for a night snack.

The night snack stall has been cooking mutton since autumn, and also sells grilled mutton skewers in summer. The main dish is whole pig, fresh pork and pork offal, which tastes fresh and good. Soup noodles have always been made, barbecue, porridge, and now there are stir-fries to meet the needs of partners.

There are many kinds of food here, the price is cheap, and the taste is really good. Gradually, many customers like to come here for midnight snacks. The men who have finished their work during the day have some money in their hands. They come here at night to order a barbecue and a few side dishes, and then drink half a catty of white wine, which is fragrant and spicy. Those who

come late still have no seats, and the tables outside are added again and again, but they can't meet the demand during the peak period.

Because he considered that business is not always so good, and that after winter, no matter how good the business is, it will slow down. There was no business for several months, so if he continued to expand now, he would suffer losses when the income and expenditure were not balanced. Cao Xiangnan did not recommend expanding the business blindly. The most appropriate way was to take it step by step according to the situation.

They came early today, and most of the seats were occupied. Otherwise, if there were no seats later, even the boss Cao Xiangnan would have to wait in line for a seat.

The soup base was being boiled on the stove in the middle of the table. When it was hot, there was also pork offal hot pot. They ordered a pork offal hot pot and many other dishes. The barbecue they ordered has been served, along with three or five side dishes, and a pound of white wine for the employees.

"Eat as much as you want, don't be polite to me, your boss. I'll treat you tonight." Cao Xiangnan is definitely the best boss to his employees. Not only does he pay them a lot of money every month, but he also gives them various rewards, two days of paid leave every month, and subsidies for seeing a doctor when they are sick, among other things.

It's hard to find such a good boss even with a lantern, and yes, he even invites them to have a midnight snack outside.

"Thank you, boss." The employees all said to their big boss.

The supervisor, Sun Ji, sat there with his usual smile on his face, as if the troubled and tired man earlier was not like him. While he was here, Cao Xiangnan went to talk to Manager Zhou about the night snack stall, and came back to have a night snack with everyone and drink two glasses of wine. When the food on the table was finished, it was almost time to go back. "Everyone should go back and rest early, we have to open the store tomorrow." He said.

"Okay." The employees responded in unison.

The next day, they had to open the store for business, and those who drank did not dare to drink too much, but everyone ate until their bellies were full, and they had a full meal.

The moon in the sky was hanging in the middle of the sky, and the child in the house fell asleep. Qi Wanfeng coaxed the child to sleep, but he did not sleep. He sat under the lamp with needle and thread in his hand, sewing clothes for the child, while waiting

for his husband to come back. "Ya-ya-yi" The sound of the door being pushed open at night was unusually clear. The person who was mending clothes in the house raised his head and saw

his husband who had returned. Qi Wanfeng smiled and looked at his husband who had returned.

When his husband came back, the needle and thread he was mending in his hands were taken away. After his husband took a bath, they went to bed together.

This was the only time in the day that he could see his husband. Lying in his husband's arms with their child beside him, Qi Wanfeng felt that he had been waiting for this moment all day. When they fell asleep, the people who were hugged by their husbands had smiles on their lips. Cao Xiangnan hugged the sleeping person and kissed him on the corner of his lips.

Nanyang City gradually became quiet at night, and the moonlight quietly illuminated the city...
