Gu Yuannian was so happy, and Xu Miaomiao was also extremely delighted. She and Xu Qingshan had been in love with each other, and now there was finally a good result. Gu Yuannian's mother looked at the marriage certificate, tears almost burst out of her eyes, and her shaking legs could hardly stand.
There was a clang sound outside the door, and Xu Qingshan, dressed in black, opened the door and walked in. Seeing this scene, Xu Miaomiao consciously stepped out, leaving time for the two of them.
Xu Qingshan walked forward slowly, took Xu Miaomiao's hand, and said lovingly: "Sixth Mother, now mother has agreed to our marriage. Before long, you will be my wife."
Gu Yuanniang panted and smiled, burying her head in Xu Qingshan's arms. Their journey was really bumpy, and now they have such a good result, they are relieved.
Because the wedding date was set for next month, Gu Yuanniang did not go to the department store this month and stayed at home waiting for the wedding.
Although this marriage was arranged by Madam Zhang, Gu Yuanniang also needed to make some choices on her own. Plus, this time Gu Yuanniang planned to embroider a wedding dress for herself, so she came to the department store less often. Song Weiwei was not the type of person who liked to stay in the store, so for a while, Xu Miaomiao was the only one left in the department store.
Perhaps because of the collaboration with Xiangchunfang, more and more people came to the department store. Some came to buy wine, and some came to try the pastries.
"Is this the wine from Xiangchunfang?" The man pointed at the jar with the wine in his hand and spoke while looking at Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Miaomiao nodded and responded, "My dear, yes, we launched it in collaboration with Xiangchunfang. If you don't have time to go to the tavern, you can buy it from me and bring it home to drink by yourself."
"Very good, very good." The man nodded after hearing this and immediately took two more bottles. "Ever since I tasted the wine from Xiangchun House, I've wanted to drink it every day. It's a pity that Xiangchun House is so far away from me. If you also sell it at home, I'll come to your house someday."
"Not only is the wine delicious, the cakes here are also very delicious. My husband, why don't you give it a try?"
"In that case, I'll listen to the shopkeeper and give me a few pieces!"
Xu Miaomiao nodded and grabbed a few more pieces of crab roe cakes for the man. She had been doing this for the past few days. When she saw someone coming, she would introduce the department store to them. Suddenly, the business of the department store was no longer as bad as before. More and more people came, but most of them were men. They either came to buy wine or cakes. There were very few women shopping.
It seems that if you want to attract female customers, you need to think of other ways.
I had been planning to go to Gu Yuanniang's wedding banquet tomorrow, so I decided to close the shop early today and wait until dusk. Just as I was about to leave, I saw a man and a woman hesitating at the door, wondering whether they should come in.
The woman was wearing a hood, and the man was lowering his head, cowering. For a moment, Xu Miaomiao couldn't see their faces clearly, so she took a step forward and asked, "What do you two need?"
Hearing Xu Miaomiao speak, the woman seemed to be stunned. When she raised her head, Xu Miaomiao met a pair of familiar eyes. Wasn't this person Song Wushao's aunt? This family had occupied her old house before, but she didn't care much about it, after all, she had a new house. But how did they find this place?
When the man heard Xu Miaomiao's words, he looked up and saw that it was Xu Miaomiao. He shook his sleeves in dissatisfaction, and walked straight into the store without paying attention to what others said.
"We suffered in that small place of Bai County, but you are living a carefree life in the capital!" The man looked around the store with his hands in his pockets, raised his hand to pick up a piece of crab roe cake, put it in his mouth and ate it. He looked at Xu Miaomiao with dissatisfaction and said, "When we moved to the capital, we informed everyone in the village, but we didn't tell your biological uncle and aunt. Do you still regard us as your elders?"
Xu Miaomiao stood up, looked at the two of them and said, "You were the ones who abandoned Song Wushao and Song Weiwei first, and now you come to us to beg us. How can this be justified?"
"What do you mean by beg you?" The man shook his sleeves in dissatisfaction when he heard Xu Miaomiao say this. He looked at her and said, "It is natural for you to support your elders. What do you mean by beg? You are talking nonsense. I won't talk to you. Where is Song Wushao? Call him out."
Xu Miaomiao remained silent, thinking that these two people must have failed to find the Song Mansion and saw the department store, so they came here to inquire about Song Wushao's whereabouts.
"I remember that when we were in Bai County, I told you clearly that you were the ones who abandoned Song Wushao and Song Weiwei first. Now that you see that we are doing well, you immediately come to us and want to get a piece of the pie. How can this be justified in this world? If you don't leave, don't blame me for having people drive you out with sticks."
“You, you bitch, what are you talking about? People like you who are unfilial to your elders will be punished by God.” The man said, pointing his trembling fingers at the sky.
Seeing this, the woman beside him hurriedly stopped him and said, "Good boy, I know we did something wrong before and blamed Wei Wei and Wu Shao, but after all, we are his biological uncle and aunt. Now we are the only family he has left in this world, and you can't just watch us suffer!"
Xu Miaomiao remained silent. What the woman said did make some sense. If they were driven out today, Song Wushao would probably be charged with disrespecting his elders. Especially in the capital, he had to be careful.
"So you came here today intending to stay here."
"Yes." The man nodded, walked straight to a chair nearby and sat down.
The woman next to her laughed, looking a little embarrassed, and took two steps closer to Xu Miaomiao: "Good child, we are all family after all. You married into the Song family, so you are also a member of the Song family. We also have the surname Song and we have the same ancestor. Now, my family is in trouble, please take us in."
"What if I say no?" Xu Miaomiao's expression changed and she put the teacup in front of her on the table beside her.
When the man heard this, he stood up anxiously, pointed at Xu Miaomiao and said, "How dare you say no? You are a woman who didn't ask for the betrothal gift and whose origins are unknown. If it weren't for my family's kindness, our Song family would not recognize you as Wu Shao's wife. What qualifications do you have to talk nonsense here? Take us to see Song Wu Shao quickly. He is the descendant of our Song family."
"In that case, please leave quickly." Xu Miaomiao straightened up and spoke.
