Chapter 104 Chapter 104 You Are Crazy
The old lady also noticed that the atmosphere was not right. The man opposite her had a fierce look in his eyes. He bought something and left quickly, leaving them looking at each other in bewilderment.
No one was buying anything at the moment, so Miao Ying took a step back and looked at Fu Lingyou: "Young Master, how come you have time to come and browse our stall? What do you want to eat? I'll treat you."
"Lingzhi, come here, I have something to tell you." Fu Lingyou didn't look at Miao Ying, but just looked at Lingzhi.
Lingzhi had just finished eating his buns, stood up, and followed Fu Lingyou to the side. Miao Ying stretched his neck to eavesdrop, but they were too far away for him to hear. He nudged Xiaolin, wanting her to eavesdrop, but Xiaolin shook her head and pouted, "I'm not going."
"Kid, why don't you like gossip?" Miao Ying said with some regret.
On the other side, Lingzhi looked at Fu Lingyou and called him "Big Brother".
"I thought you didn't intend to recognize me anymore." Fu Lingyou looked at him. He was a little darker than before, but not thinner. He looked much more energetic than before. It was obvious that he was living well in the Huo family.
The child who was not good at socializing has now learned to set up a stall and can communicate well with all customers. The Huo family really treats him as their own child. When they interact with him, they are not polite but sincere.
"How could that be? I told you before that the kindness of raising me should never be forgotten." Lingzhi smiled, but there was no smile on her face.
"What are you going to do in the future?" Fu Lingyou took a step towards him and looked him straight in the eyes. "Are you planning to run a stall for the rest of your life?"
Lingzhi pursed her lips and said, "It's good to set up a stall. I can meet a lot of people and make money with my own hands. Maybe I can buy a shop in the future, and maybe find a suitable person to marry, and we can run the shop together."
Fu Lingyou's expression changed, but he suppressed his emotions again: "What do you mean by the right person?"
Fu Lingzhi sighed: "Anyone who is of equal status and willing to get married is fine. My godmother and Xiao Ying will help me check it out."
"Okay, I understand." Fu Lingyou walked up to him and patted his shoulder. "Go home and wait."
He left after he finished speaking, leaving Lingzhi standing there in a daze. Miao Ying walked over and pulled him back, unable to hide the curiosity in his eyes. Lingzhi felt a little helpless: "Nothing, just asking how I'm doing lately."
Miao Ying complained in his heart. That expression didn't look like he was asking if he was okay. It looked like he was about to be pissed to death.
However, Lingzhi didn't want to say more, so Miao Ying didn't ask any more questions. Later, Lingzhi didn't ask Miao Ying to help him. He and Xiaolin sold out quickly together and then went home together.
On the way, they met Huo Xing who came to pick them up. Lingzhi's cart was now pulled by a mule. After seeing Huo Xing, he and Xiaolin walked much faster, leaving the two of them to talk.
"I've picked out a shop and have already paid a deposit." Miao Ying felt a little tired. He didn't notice it before, but as his child grew older, he could clearly feel that he got tired more easily than before.
Huo Xing squatted down and tried to carry him, but Miao Ying stood behind him, holding her belly. "How are we going to carry him now? If I really carry him, I'll have to hold the child down, right?"
Huo Xing then stood up and immediately picked him up horizontally: "Is this okay?"
Miao Yingshou held his neck tightly, and he was also trying hard, his whole body was stiff. Huo Xing weighed him lightly: "Don't use too much strength."
Miao Ying had no choice but to relax and put the weight of her entire body on Huo Xing. He held Miao Ying in his arms and walked steadily. The swaying arc made Miao Ying feel at ease, so she fell asleep leaning against Huo Xing.
When he woke up again, it was already dark.
After dinner, he told Huo Xing about the shop. When he came back, he fell asleep in the middle of the conversation: "You take a day off tomorrow. Let's go and see the shop together and see how to renovate it."
Huo Xing nodded: "Okay."
They did not tell Lingzhi about buying the shop. This could be considered a gift from Miao Ying to Lingzhi. If he did not get married, this would be his lifeline; if he wanted to get married, this would be his confidence.
The next day they followed Lingzhi to town. Lingzhi was a little surprised: "Aren't you going out today?"
Miao Ying nodded. "We still need to buy some seasonings, so we'll take a day off today. Come back later and we'll meet at your stall."
"good."
When they arrived in town, Miao Ying and Huo Xing went to the brokerage firm together and found the man from yesterday. They quickly paid the remaining money and completed all the formalities. Only when he got the deed with Ling Zhi's name on it did he feel truly relieved.
Afterwards, they went to the shop and asked Huo Xing to see how to make some changes. After all, this was the foundation of Lingzhi's future career, and he had to do it perfectly the first time.
Although the shop is small, it has everything it needs. Huo Xing took a rough look and figured out what to do. He could go back and draw some plans, and he should be able to finish it by himself.
Miao Ying patted his shoulder and said, "Sending you to learn something is indeed useful."
Huo Xing put his arms around his waist and kissed his forehead.
Lingzhi sold all the prepared things at noon. They also had a meal in the town. They didn’t go to the restaurant, but ate some snacks at their stall.
Miao Ying had a few bowls of wontons, some meat buns, and a string of candied haws. Although he only ate one, it was enough to satisfy his craving. He didn't know why he had been craving this for a few days, but Li Hongying didn't let him eat it, saying that mountain red can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, which is not good for children.
Miao Ying knew that it was okay to eat one or two, so the other people all helped him hide it, knowing that he was really greedy.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and their business is very good. However, they prepare twice as much every day as before, but it takes about the same time to sell out.
Especially potato chips. The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the sales of potato chips cannot meet the demand. Not only teahouses and theaters, but also many wealthy families come to order them. These days, Li Hongying has been cutting potato chips at home.
They set up the stall until the New Year's Eve. After discussion, they decided to set up only one stall and make potato chips for the rest of the time because the demand was so great.
They made a few more potato chippers, and Miao Ying now starts slicing potatoes as soon as he opens his eyes every day.
After the Little New Year, Lingzhi stopped setting up the stall and started frying potato chips at home. After frying, Huo Xing would deliver the chips, so Miao Ying didn't have to go out.
On the second day after the Little New Year, the whole family, including the gatekeeper, slept until noon, which scared Ye Feng when he came to knock on the door but no one came to open it.
Fortunately, after a while, Li Hongying finally woke up, and then the whole family got up one after another, and the last one to get up was Miao Ying.
"I was scared to death." Ye Feng drank some water to calm himself down. "It's so late, and you guys haven't gotten up yet."
Li Hongying was also a little embarrassed: "I'm just too tired. I slept all day after taking a day off. Is there anything you want to bring home?"
Ye Feng looked around the yard. Lingzhi had just finished washing up and was about to go to the kitchen to boil water. He pulled Lingzhi aside and said, "It's about you."
Lingzhi pointed at himself: "Me?"
"It's like this. A cousin of mine from my mother's side is still unmarried." Ye Feng covered his mouth. "He just passed the imperial examination this year and became a scholar. His mother, my aunt, is looking for someone to marry him, and I immediately thought of your Lingzhi."
Miao Ying came out of the room yawning and stretched again: "When did Brother Feng start being a matchmaker?"
He ignored Miao Ying's teasing and just looked at Ling Zhi: "If you are willing, you can come and meet my cousin. He has good character and works hard. He is now a scholar. Maybe he can pass the exam for a higher position in the future."
Grandmother was also sitting in the yard at this moment, holding Lingzhi's hand and saying, "Lingzhi, would you like to consider it?"
Miao Ying also looked at him with a smile, but didn't say anything to embarrass him.
Lingzhi's face flushed: "I..."
Li Hongying could see his embarrassment, so she said, "It sounds like the conditions are good, but Lingzhi's marriage is not something we can decide."
"Ah?" Ye Feng was shocked. "Didn't something happen to his family? Could it be that he has relatives at home?"
Lingzhi scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "If you are free, it's okay to meet."
Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll go back to my parents' house someday and tell them about it. I'll take advantage of the opportunity to meet them before the New Year. My aunt is also a very good person. If I marry her, my family will be harmonious."
Miao Ying understood Ye Feng's temper. He could guarantee that the people in his family were easy to get along with, and that should not be a lie.
He was a little worried again, so he leaned over and asked him, "You said he was studying. My family runs a small business. Will people have any objections? Don't think that my Lingzhi is embarrassing them by setting up a stall."
"Oh, you can rest assured." Ye Feng said, "My uncle also runs his own business. Otherwise, how did they help my cousin pass the imperial examination? Don't worry about this. Besides, we brothers run our own business and have our own confidence. Who dares to say anything?"
After getting Ye Feng's answer, Miao Ying felt that this person was indeed worth meeting. Since Ling Zhidu had come out, he should look forward. After all, feelings could be cultivated, just like him and Huo Xing.
"Then it's settled," Ye Feng said. "I'll go back to my parents' house today to discuss it, and I'll have them come over tomorrow."
Ye Feng was very happy and was about to go back to his parents' home. Li Hongying invited him to have dinner, but he hurriedly said he didn't want to eat. However, before he walked out the door, he heard some noise at the village entrance, and it was very lively.
Miao Ying never wanted to miss out on these exciting events, so he pulled Huo Xing to go out and watch the fun. Huo Xing asked him to slow down, and stopped when Miao Ying walked out of the yard.
Huo Xing also followed and looked at him: "Why don't you leave?"
Because Miao Ying saw the excitement and was heading towards his house.
Ye Feng was about to leave, but now he wanted to see the excitement again, so he watched the people who caused the excitement slowly approaching Miao Ying's yard.
This group of people were carrying many big red boxes, lifting them into the yard one by one, and almost filling up their yard. Many people from the village also came to watch the fun outside the door. Anyway, it was winter now and there was nothing to do, so they just liked to watch the fun.
Miao Ying was also dumbfounded. He scratched his head and looked at the people who were still carrying things into their yard: "What are they doing?"
As the last box fell, everyone else made way and Fu Lingyou appeared at the end of the crowd.
Lingyi looked at him in disbelief.
"I'm here to propose marriage."
"You're crazy!"
