Chang'er kept track of the time, chatted briefly, and then continued on her way to the dock.
The villagers here also set off one after another.
Everyone happily headed to the beach, but a group of little children alone rushed towards Gujia.
Inside the Gu residence, Gu Xiaolu and Gu Xiaoman were packing honey pomelo tea, which was in bamboo tubes, into a bamboo frame lined with thick cotton cloth.
Gu Qingning, Gu Qingyang, Wang Jincheng, Xiaoshan Xiaoshu, Zhou Xiaoniu and several other children rushed in to help.
The Gu siblings had initially kept things in order, but things became chaotic once more people arrived.
Gu Xiaolu straightened up and directed, "Qingning, you and Shujie go count the packaged melon seeds, peanut candy, and dried fruit. Qingyang and Jincheng go help. Xiaoshan and Xiaoshu carry the packaged ginger tea out first. Xiaoniu, you and Yuge help carry the ginger tea."
"okay!"
The children were all given their assigned tasks and immediately got to work according to the instructions.
The Prince of Zhenbei and his wife stood under the eaves at the entrance, watching a group of children coming and going, busy with their tasks.
The Prince of Zhenbei was puzzled, but he was impressed by his daughter's abilities; at such a young age, she already knew how to manage people.
Before they knew it, the corners of their mouths couldn't be suppressed, and the Princess of Zhenbei had the same smile on her face.
Madam Huo walked over. "Children, it's time for us to set off!"
Seeing several busy figures, she exclaimed, "What are they doing? Do they need Auntie's help?"
Gu Xiaolu turned to Aunt Huo and grinned, "No need, we'll be done soon, Auntie, please wait a little longer."
Madam Huo then went along with the child's wishes and waited with the Prince of Zhenbei and his wife.
Out of sheer curiosity, he asked his sister, "You're all so clever and mischievous, I wonder what you're up to."
Princess Zhenbei was also unaware, and simply shook her head, saying, "I can't tell either."
Just then, Sister-in-law Gu and Sister-in-law Gu arrived with Yudian'er and overheard their conversation.
Sister-in-law Gu smiled and said, "I know that, why didn't you ask me, Madam?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Huo, the Princess Consort of Zhenbei, and the Prince of Zhenbei immediately cast a look of eager interest at Sister-in-law Gu.
Sister-in-law Gu and Sister-in-law Gu exchanged a glance and said cheerfully, "The children said that there are many people at night, and it happens to be the New Year, so everyone has some spare money. It's a good business opportunity."
Madam Huo was taken aback, then realized, "These things are for selling?"
Sister-in-law Gu nodded, "Yes, they had already heard that there would be fireworks on New Year's Eve, so they made a plan. Chang'er provided all the raw materials for them. They don't care how much money they make, it all depends on whether they can make it work."
The Prince of Zhenbei nodded repeatedly as he listened to Sister-in-law Gu's reply. "No wonder, when my elder sister asked if she needed any help, the little girl refused so readily."
It was taken as a test by Chang'er for them, but my daughter is really amazing.
The more I look at my nephew's wife, Chang'er, the more pleasing she becomes.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Qingfeng, it's a good thing you sent him out to work. This assignment has completely resolved the deadlock."
The eldest sister was able to walk out of the backyard, and her own wife, who had faked her death, now had a place to stay, and the child was found.
Even more so, they've paved the way for his child's future.
It makes him, the biological father, seem somewhat superfluous.
So, when I go back this time, I definitely need to do something more.
Princess Zhenbei was also pleased. Although merchants were considered lowly, every item, from firewood and rice to oil and salt, required money.
Over the years, how much more subsidies have they given to the Zhenbei Army?
She not only had no objection to her daughter's decision to start a business, but actually strongly supported it.
I'll wait until after the New Year to have a proper talk with Chang'er in private. Even if we don't acknowledge each other for the time being, as a mother, she can't be too irresponsible.
