"Yanliu, your flower garden is so beautiful."
"My brother got them all. Oh, and he even got me a packet of rose seeds."
So, you're going to plant roses?
"Let's give it a try, but it's not guaranteed that it will grow."
"Yanliu, if you manage to grow some, could you... give me some too?"
"Sure! We're like brothers!"
………
As soon as Su Nianxue opened her eyes, she heard two little girls chattering in the courtyard.
"Flowers, you've come?"
"Sister-in-law, did I disturb you?" Hua'er was a little embarrassed. She had just come to check on Hua while she was doing laundry.
"No, actually... I woke up a long time ago." This sounds a bit awkward, probably because she rarely lies.
"Sister-in-law, Yanliu, I'll be going now." Hua'er smiled, picked up the large wooden basin, and left. If she was late, she wouldn't be able to get a good spot.
Su Nianxue glanced at the flowerbed.
The chrysanthemum has a small yellow bud at the top, and the rose also has pink buds growing on its thorny branches.
In a few days, the house will smell of flowers.
"Next year, let's plant a few more grapevines. Once the vines grow bigger, we can build a grape trellis."
Then, we'll have an endless supply of grapes at home.
"It's getting hot, and we can cool off under the trellis, isn't that great!" Su Nianxue said with a smile.
"Yes! I think so too." Gu Yanliu was watering the flowers!
These days are wonderful; I never dared to imagine them before.
"By the way, where's your brother? Where did he go so early this morning?" She glanced around the yard but didn't see Gu Yanbai.
"He's gone to till the soil, saying we're not strong enough to till it deep enough."
Su Nianxue shook her head with a smile. Really, she just didn't want them to be tired, but she had to say it in such an awkward way.
Little Flower, with her four short legs tumbling and her round body wiggling, came to Su Nianxue.
She ruffled its hair. "Come on, let's go eat."
As if she understood what Xiaohua was saying, she trotted after her and went to the kitchen together.
The house was almost tidied up.
The well has been dug, the flowers have been planted, and the vegetable seeds have been sown in the field.
That evening, Su Nianxue said, "We'll start making tofu tomorrow."
Gu Yanbai stroked her soft hair. "I was just about to tell you about this!"
Don't you want to do business every day?
How about this?
From now on, please supply your tofu to our shop. This will save you the trouble of running around.
Su Nianxue sat up abruptly, her eyes sparkling as she looked straight at him.
"You mean we should sell tofu in our own shop?"
"Yes, you heard me right!" Gu Yanbai chuckled and gently rubbed her face twice with his thumb.
"Our business is doing alright. I went to the kitchen and asked, and you can just send two slabs of tofu over every day."
He had calculated that grinding two blocks of tofu wouldn't take much effort.
They have things to do every day, so they no longer complain about being bored.
These two are stubborn, and he can't stop them anyway, so he might as well keep an eye on them.
"What's wrong? You're not happy?" Gu Yanbai asked with a smile when she didn't respond.
No, not at all!
I have this strange feeling that the money seems to have gone from the left pocket to the right pocket.
"It all comes back to our own money, no matter how it's transferred."
Gu Yanbai chuckled twice, "That's right and that's not right either, it's definitely our family's money."
However, there are still differences.
"You're making money off our tofu purchases. If you don't deliver, we'll have to buy tofu from someone else."
"Too!
"Then I thank Mr. Gu for patronizing our business." She smiled playfully at him.
"Thank you for your kind words, boss lady!" He pinched her nose, his laughter filled with undisguised joy.
"But...wouldn't this make things a bit too leisurely?"
Su Nianxue thought for a moment and decided that she could simply grind the tofu in the afternoon and send it to the shop early in the morning.
Then she'll have plenty of time left.
"What trick are you up to now? Don't just come up with something on a whim!" Upon seeing her expression, Gu Yanbai instantly became wary.
"I really don't understand you. Isn't it better to be free?"
Now we have a donkey cart at home. When you have time, you can go to town with Yanliu to find Yang Hongxing.
Aren't you close to her? You two could go shopping together and cook something delicious.
If I don't want to go out, I can stay home and water the plants, isn't that great!
When the topic of shopping came up, Su Nianxue immediately told him about Gu Yanliu's complaint that the town was no longer fun.
Gu Yanbai laughed, "This girl used to always clamor to go to the market, and she would cry if she wasn't allowed to go."
Now that I go to town every day, it's not unusual anymore.
"That's because we couldn't go before, but now we see them every day, so there's nothing special about it anymore, right?"
After laughing, Su Nianxue said, "How about this?"
Normally, we just do what's in the shop. We'll make more when it's market day..."
Afraid that he would disagree, she quickly said, "Really, it's just a little bit more."
We took the extra tofu to the market to sell, and also to keep Er Ya and Sister Taozi company.
Otherwise, they should be complaining that we're not going to visit them anymore.
"Alright, alright, whatever you want, you two figure it out yourselves." Knowing that the two of them can't stay idle, it's good to find them something to do.
Otherwise, if he's too idle, he might secretly plot something, and he's too lazy to bother with it.
"Gu Yanbai, you are so kind."
It not only solved a major problem for us, but also allowed us to do business right at our doorstep.
And they're becoming more and more open-minded; they'll even listen to my... explanations.
She cupped her cheeks, took a big bite, and then gave her a resounding compliment.
Gu Yanbai enjoyed her enthusiasm, but he wasn't blinded by her flattery. "Come on!"
You change your tune faster than turning the pages of a book. How can I believe you?
I could not have been unaware of you; I'm glad I agreed.
If I hadn't agreed, I wonder how she would have given me the cold shoulder right now.
That's absolutely impossible.
"Comrade Gu Yanbai, you have a very deep misunderstanding of me." She quickly waved her hand, her expression extremely sincere.
"Comrade, I think people should be more sincere with each other."
If you dare to do it, you must dare to take responsibility.
Once you open your eyes wide, stop lying.
"And you're not allowed to act like a scoundrel." He lifted her chin, his tone slightly flirtatious.
"When it comes to being a scoundrel, do you think I can beat you?" You don't even know who you are, yet you have the nerve to criticize others.
"Are you praising me?" Gu Yanbai ignored the disdain in her eyes.
"Yes, I'm really... sincerely praising you, didn't you realize?"
