Shen Jialu grinned: "Hehe, it's just 'gua la gua la'... hua la hua la... pi li pa la... bang bang ba... got it?"
Shen Jiahao and Shen Jialuo: "Huh?"
Shen Jiawen scratched his chin: "Ah!"
Shen Jiaqing: "Ah."
Lili: "Wow!"
I never knew my second brother had such a talent!
Lili had only thought of asking Xia Ning to give her an advertisement; she hadn't really thought of anything else.
oops.
Lili covered her mouth.
General Star, Literary Star, Heavenly Physician Star...
Is my second brother a lucky star?
Lili's eyes were filled with indescribable excitement. Wow, what kind of wonderful family has she come to?
The reactions of the people varied, and Liu almost died laughing at the sight.
"Alright, alright, you young people think fast, we don't understand these things. But if Lili says it's no problem, then it's definitely no problem," Liu said with a smile. "Second brother, I think you should hurry up and stock up on more goods these days!"
Old Mrs. Shen also said, "Yes, let's listen to Lili! The eldest son will be back soon. If it's really like what Lili and Jialu said, maybe we can rent a shop in the city so that the second son can do carpentry."
Old Mrs. Shen's words were like a thunderbolt, causing an uproar.
Mrs. Chen asked in disbelief, "Really?! Opening a shop?"
Shen Lao Er was also shocked: "Open a shop? This..."
Old Mrs. Shen interrupted him, saying, "If the second son's carpentry business is really as successful as the children say, it's really inconvenient here. Why don't we grit our teeth and rent a shop for you in the city? It'll be much more convenient anywhere."
Lili nodded.
That's right, it should have been like this a long time ago. If it weren't for all the things that have happened recently, she would have opened the shop by now.
But it doesn't matter. Although the advertisement came out a little late, Xia Ning's advertisement was much better than Uncle Liu's advertisement.
No matter where you are, there's no shortage of foolish, rich people.
Especially in the capital, wealth and luxury were everywhere.
Only then did Ms. Chen realize that her mother-in-law was not joking. After the initial shock came boundless joy.
Is her husband going to open a shop in the future?
Wouldn't that make her the boss's wife?
Overjoyed, Chen immediately massaged Shen Lao Er's shoulders: "Honey, you have to work hard! Whether I can become the boss's wife depends entirely on you, and the children's future depends on you!"
Shen Jiawen and Shen Jiaqing also enthusiastically massaged Shen Lao Er's legs, saying, "Keep it up, Daddy!"
Shen Lao Er was both amused and exasperated. He had never thought that what he did was particularly good, but with his family's encouragement, he felt full of energy.
"Okay, I will!"
These words are filled with boundless anticipation for life.
The whole family was overjoyed, having received a thank-you gift from the Xia family and with a promising business opportunity on the other.
The Shen family felt full of energy.
Well, Yang looked at the box on the ground and frowned.
Logically, a daughter's dowry should be kept by her mother before she gets married, but since the Shen family has not divided the household, Old Mrs. Shen is the one who calls the shots.
"Mother, why don't you put this box in your room and let Lili keep it?"
Without even thinking, Old Mrs. Shen refused: "This was given to Lili by someone else, it all belongs to Lili. What would it look like if I accepted it? Lili is still young, you, as her mother, should accept it for her."
Yang agreed.
Lili curiously examined the various gold and silver jewelry inside: hairpins, hair ornaments, beaded hairpins, earrings, bracelets...
All kinds of jade, gold, silver, they have them all.
Pear was also blinded by the light.
Even the cheapest ones are enough to feed ordinary people for several years.
Is this the arrogance of the wealthy?
It's so beautiful.
The boys had never seen such gorgeous women's jewelry before, and they were dazzled by it.
Wow, so many!
"They're all so pretty! My sister would look amazing in them!"
Seeing so many things, the Shen family members were genuinely happy for Lili, without any other thoughts.
Lili picked out a begonia-shaped hairpin, a blue agate necklace, a pair of ruby earrings, and a jade bracelet from the collection, and gave them to several elders.
After their initial surprise, Liu and Chen were deeply moved.
Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Shen were also very happy with the gift that Lili gave them.
"Alright, Mommy will help Lili put the rest away."
Mrs. Yang rubbed Lili's head and said, "Good, our Lili is a little rich girl now."
Yang hid the box under her and Shen Laosan's bed, and stuffed a lot of things outside to cover it up.
Having amassed considerable wealth, Lili says that having money brings peace of mind.

With Lili's guidance, Shen Lao Er was full of energy and focused on his carpentry work.
The boys were not to be outdone. Shen Jiahao went to chop firewood every day, while Shen Jialu was seriously planning the future of the shop.
The rest of them assisted the others, and when they had free time, they would follow Old Man Shen to the fields to fertilize the rice.
Thanks to Lili, the Shen family's rice is growing well, standing out among all the fields, and it looks like it will be a bumper harvest.
This gave the already motivated Shen family even more hope for the future.
When people from other families saw how well the Shen family's rice was growing, they all came to ask the Shen family to teach them their methods.
We're from the same village, so how come your family was no different from mine at this time last year, but has made a qualitative leap this year?
Lili was happy to help, and would always take advantage of the time when no one was around to wander around other people's fields and see if there was anything lacking.
I don't know if it's because Lili has some kind of magic, but I didn't notice many of Lili's major flaws. However, the rice that Lili walked around a few times was much more energetic the next day.
As the florets on the rice ears gradually differentiated and were about to enter the pollination stage, Shen Laosan's imperial examination was about to begin.
Yang told her parents that she wanted to take the two children to accompany Shen Laosan to take the exam. Shen Laopo thought that her son had such bad luck in the past few years, and this year with Lili by his side, there would be some security, so she agreed.
The provincial examination is in five days, and Moxiang Academy has suspended classes today. Shen Laosan went home to pack his bags, and the Shen family members all gave him instructions.
"Second brother, Lili will be by your side this year, so you can focus on your exam!"
"Yes, third brother, don't worry, Lili will protect you!"
"Just do your best, don't ask for anything else, just finish the exam!"
Shen Laosan was both amused and exasperated. Just how unlucky did his family think he was?
Shen Laosan responded one by one: "Father, Mother, Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law, Eldest Sister-in-law, don't worry. This time, Wan Niang is with me with Lili and Jialuo, so there definitely won't be any more problems!"
Old Mrs. Shen nodded and handed him the pancakes she had just made: "The exam must have been tough, so make sure you eat something good. Take these pancakes with you on the way."
The family exchanged a few more words and then urged Shen Laosan to hurry on his way.
