After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife

Chapter 92

With Luo Auntie having adjusted, Luo Ge felt relieved.

They were going 'egg collecting' today, and weren't expected to return until the afternoon.

So he first prepared lunch for the two little ones, to be delivered to them later.

"Brother Gu!"

As Luo Ge finished cooking, he heard the voice of Li Shopkeeper from outside.

"I heard your workshop is ready?"

Previously, Li Shopkeeper had suggested a few times that they should increase production, so after the small workshop was set up, Gu Jinchen sent someone to inform Li Shopkeeper.

It was unexpected that Li Shopkeeper would come in person today.

"Yes, just arranged it. We'll start working tomorrow. Does Big Brother Li want to take a look?"

"Sure."

After taking a tour around the small workshop with Gu Jinchen, Li Shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.

"You guys are making quick progress. It should be completed before the new year, right?"

Seeing the outline of the mansion taking shape, he couldn't help but remark with a hint of longing in his eyes.

Looking at this grand mansion, his expression grew wistful.

These young folks nowadays are so capable, able to arrange for a large mansion so quickly. He couldn't slack off either.

"Yes, we expect it to be completed before the new year. What brings you here in person today? Could it be that you've made progress on the matter of inquiring about the manor we asked about earlier?"

Seeing Li Shopkeeper today, Gu Jinchen was quite surprised, then recalled this matter.

Early this month when Li Shopkeeper delivered their share of the profits, they had asked him to help inquire about it.

The earnings from the Fuxin Shop were truly substantial. In just the first month of trial operation, while many other shops had yet to fully promote it, the share that ended up in Luo Ge's hands exceeded ten thousand taels.

Acquiring a manor could be arranged.

At this moment, Luo Ge also came over with the food boxes prepared.

"Yes, Brother Gu, you really are quick to react. I came to you today to talk about the manor."

"After you mentioned it to me before, I asked a friend to help inquire about it for you.

He only brought news yesterday - there are two quite suitable hillside manors of the kind you want.

Would you like to go take a look? If so, I'll let him know when I go back."

Hearing Li Shopkeeper's words, Gu Jinchen turned to look at Luo Ge.

"Can we go take a look today?" Luo Ge asked upon hearing this.

"It should be possible. The two manors are both in Yiyang Town, not far away," Li Shopkeeper considered and nodded.

"Alright then, we'll trouble Big Brother Li to bring us to meet your friend."

With the Fuxin Shop so busy now, Li Shopkeeper definitely wouldn't have much time.

Having his friend take them to view the manors first would work.

"Okay."

After making arrangements with Li Shopkeeper, leaving the storeroom key and enough silver for the estimated egg collection with Luo Auntie, they set off.

They stopped at the village entrance to pick up the two little ones from the school.

"Little Uncle, Little Auntie, why are you here?"

Hearing from the teacher that their little uncle and little auntie were looking for them, the two little ones were quite surprised.

"Today, Little Auntie and I have to go out for a bit. It might be late when we return, so would you two be okay staying with Teacher Xu until noon?"

They had just explained the situation to Elder Mr. Xu.

Hearing this, Yun Mu turned to look at his own teacher and nodded.

Knowing that his little uncle and auntie were going out for some important matter, the sensible little one didn't ask too many questions.

"Okay, Auntie, be careful when you're out."

He just gave a mature, slightly worried reminder.

Yun Yi patted the large hand his little uncle had placed on his head and said, "Little Uncle, you have to take good care of Little Auntie."

"Heh."

Hearing the words of the two little ones, the young couple and Elder Mr. Xu couldn't help but smile.

"Alright," Gu Jinchen responded seriously, then turned to Elder Mr. Xu.

"We'll have to trouble you today."

Hearing this, Elder Mr. Xu waved his hand dismissively, "There's not much going on here usually. With Yun Mu and Yun Yi around, it'll be livelier."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yichen, standing next to him, frowned slightly. Why did he always feel like his grandfather was ignoring him?

Didn't Grandpa always say he was a lively little fellow? How could it not be lively with him around?

Though he thought this, the obedient little one remained silent, only his gaze involuntarily falling on Luo Ge.

He had heard Yun Mu and the others mention Little Auntie many times before, but had yet to formally meet her. As for Gu Jinchen, he had seen him quite a few times when he came to the school.

So he was still a bit curious about Luo Ge.

However, Little Auntie really was as beautiful and gentle as Yun Mu and the others had described.

Luo Ge also noticed the little one's gaze, turned his head towards him with a smile, and reached out to poke his chubby little cheek.

"You must be Yichen, right?"

He had seen this little one once before when they came to tuition at the school, but hadn't paid much attention then.

Now he realized the boy was an adorably chubby little dumpling.

"Yes, hello Little Auntie," Xu Yichen responded shyly with a slightly reddened face upon hearing Luo Ge's words, calling her Little Auntie just like Yun Mu and Yun Yi.

"Good boy," Luo Ge chuckled, taking out some pear candies from her pocket and putting them in the little one's hand.

She also divided some for Yun Mu and Yun Yi, not playing favorites as they were all obedient and sensible little ones.

"Alright, we'll be going now. Yun Mu and Yun Yi, remember to listen to your teacher, understood?"

"Yes, we know."

With Elder Mr. Xu around, they could rest assured. After bidding farewell to Elder Mr. Xu, they departed.

Watching the carriage disappear into the distance, Xu Yichen took Yun Mu and Yun Yi by the hand and headed back into the school.

"Grandpa, can Yun Mu and Yun Yi sleep in my room today? My bed is big enough!"

Xu Yichen was the same age as Yun Mu and the others, but a few months younger.

Being of similar ages, these few little ones got along quite well when playing together.

Xu Yichen was the only child of this generation in the Xu family, and had never experienced having siblings.

Now that Elder Mr. Xu had accepted a few students around his age as disciples, giving him three 'older brothers', he was naturally very happy about it.

Even if he was the youngest, he was still delighted to be the 'younger brother'.

"If they're willing, I don't mind," Elder Mr. Xu said.

There were still two vacant guest rooms in the back courtyard, so there was no lack of space for rest.

"Yun Mu, Yun Yi!" Hearing this, Xu Yichen shook his 'older brothers'' arms.

The two of them nodded in resignation.

"Me too," Tie Dan chimed in belatedly upon hearing this.

"Sure," the three little ones naturally had no objections.
