Luo Sheng stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "Yun Ying, you're agreeing to this?"
Xiao Yunying belatedly felt embarrassed and tried to pull her hand away: "If you didn't hear me, then forget it."
Luo Yong held her hand tightly, refusing to let go: "I heard it, I heard you say yes, but I never expected you would say yes..."
He suddenly seemed to remember something, released her hand, and took out a brocade box from his pocket.
Xiao Yunying recognized the brocade box; inside was the gold-threaded bracelet inlaid with various gemstones that he had wanted to give her before.
Luo Sheng was so nervous or excited that he dropped the brocade box onto the table.
He hurriedly picked it up again, opened it, and took out the bracelet: "Yun Ying, let me put it on you."
This time, Xiao Yunying did not refuse; she nodded and extended her hand.
Luo Sheng carefully put the bracelet on her wrist. Xiao Yunying could feel his nervousness; his fingers trembled slightly as he touched her.
She held her wrist up to her eyes; she hadn't been able to get a good look at it last time, but this time she could examine the exquisite bracelet closely.
"I didn't expect you to always carry this bracelet with you."
Luo Sheng's voice was filled with excitement and anticipation: "It's all so that I can always be ready for the opportunity to put this bracelet on you."
He got up and sat down again, scratching his head and saying, "You really promised me, you can't go back on your word."
Xiao Yunying fiddled with the bracelet: "That's not necessarily true. If you treat me badly in the future, I'll definitely regret it. You know I'm not a weak woman who can't live without a man..."
Luo Yong quickly interrupted her, "I won't treat you badly, and I won't give you a chance to leave me."
Xiao Yunying tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth and pretended to be indifferent as she hummed in agreement.
Luo Sheng's lips curled up uncontrollably: "Yun Ying, is there anything else you like? I'll go buy it for you, or is there anything you want to eat? Oh, right, you like to eat pheasant, I'll go catch one for you right now."
As he spoke, he walked outside.
Xiao Yunying grabbed his sleeve: "What time is it? Don't go, it'll be dark soon."
"It's alright, I'll be quick. Oh, and I should also tell Wei Xun to investigate the group of people in Miss Zheng's family."
Seeing that he was so energetic that he had nowhere to release it, Xiao Yunying knew that he was too excited and thought that he should do something to distract him and calm him down.
"Then go ahead, and come back soon."
"I'm going right now, I'll be right back, Yunying, wait for me."
After Luo Sheng finished speaking, he used his lightness skill to quickly leave.
Xiao Yunying touched her slightly flushed cheeks: "Why are you so excited? You're making me a little embarrassed."
However, recalling Luo Sheng's reaction just now, she knew that it was precisely because he cared about her and valued her too much that he acted that way.
Thinking about it this way, she was happy.
For the next few days, Luo Sheng remained in an overly excited state, full of energy, as if he had inexhaustible strength.
He helped cover the greenhouse with quilts, tidy up the land, and transplant seedlings. He was always busy until mealtime and wouldn't come back until Xiao Yunying had to call him.
At first, Madam Luo didn't understand what was wrong with her son lately. It was only after being reminded by Granny Chang that she noticed the bracelet that Xiao Yunying had hidden under her sleeve.
Madam Luo naturally knew what the bracelet was all about.
That was the birthday gift her son had given to Yunying as compensation.
Yunying knew that men giving women jewelry was considered a token of love, so she did not accept it, and her son was disappointed for a long time because of this.
But now she's wearing it on her wrist. Does that mean Yunying has accepted her son?
"Granny Chang, do you think I'll soon be able to hold the grandson that this young couple gave me?"
Granny Chang was equally delighted: "I think it's coming soon. Look at how excited the General has been these past two days. Something good must have happened between him and the young mistress to make him so excited."
“You’re right. Write back quickly and ask the manor to send over some more silver notes, and also pick out some good things and tonics. I remember that the master once seized a white jade Guanyin statue, which the Emperor bestowed upon us. Have it sent over as well. I need to pray more to pray that my son will have an heir, that my husband and I will live in harmony, and that we will have many children and much happiness.”
"Don't worry, madam, I'll write back right away."
"Wait, I'll write it myself."
Madam Luo stood up and said, "The New Year is almost here. Have the household prepare more things and send them over so we can give them as gifts during the New Year."
Xiao Yunying was unaware that Madam Luo had already guessed that she had accepted Luo Sheng, and was still busy preparing for the opening ceremony of Jinxiu Pavilion.
Cheng Yue followed her advice, paid the workers well, hired many people, and the decoration was completed quickly, more than ten days ahead of schedule.
Yesterday, Duan Yingying came back and left a message for her, saying that it would be ready in the next couple of days and that she wanted her to come and see it.
She went there in the morning and saw that the shop, which had more than doubled in size, was much more spacious and bright. The thought that she had drawn the blueprints herself gave her an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
After discussing the opening activities with Cheng Yue, she returned and designed several more embroidery patterns suitable for winter.
For example, extra-fluffy little animals, or matching them with gloves, scarves, hats and other decorations, are particularly suitable for the winter scene, making people look cute and heartwarming.
Two days later, she gave these blueprints to Cheng Yue as a congratulatory gift for the opening.
After delivering her opening remarks and introducing the activities amidst the bustling crowd, Cheng Yue made way for the crowd.
Before expanding her shop, she had already gained considerable fame in the city for her novel embroidery and patterns. After a period of vigorous promotion, the number of people who came on the opening day was enough to prove that Jinxiuge had successfully squeezed into the upper echelons of the clothing industry in Donglin City.
