Chapter 123 Xiao 7 This cat is a little bit unlike a cat
The handmade soap workshop and the white sugar workshop have been officially completed, and each workshop will recruit 30 workers.
These workers were all carefully selected from Qingquan Village. They needed to be trained for three days after being selected. Each person had a different division of labor. They were paid 30 cents a day, and food and accommodation were not provided.
The materials purchased by Xiao Tiesheng and Xiao Xuewen were delivered to the village one after another.
As truckloads of goods came into the village, many villagers came to watch and exclaimed in amazement from time to time.
“So much sugar cane!”
“Is this for making candy?”
The affairs of the two workshops were all handed over to the two families of Xiao Xuewen and Xiao Tiesheng. Ye Tang drove a horse-drawn carriage to Wenggang Village early in the morning, and after picking up Zhao Sanxi, he went straight to the county town.
There was a long queue in front of the braised meat shop. Lin Chengye looked up in the midst of his busy schedule and saw Ye Tang and Zhao Sanxi standing under a tree next to the long queue.
When Lin Chengye saw Zhao Sanxi, his eyes lit up instantly.
Ye Ping'an came in from the back door and patted Lin Chengye on the shoulder: "Sister Sanxi has something to tell you, go ahead, I'll take care of this."
Lin Chengye and Zhao Sanxi went to a nearby pavilion.
No one knew what the two talked about. They came out of the pavilion half an hour later. Ye Tang had been waiting outside. He had finished a pound of braised chicken feet. The oil paper bag in his hand was full of chicken feet bones.
"How was your conversation?" Ye Tang ran up and asked curiously, his eyes moving between the two of them with a face full of gossip.
Zhao Sanxi's face flushed: "Very, very good."
Ye Tang immediately looked at Lin Chengye.
Lin Chengye scratched the back of his head, feeling quite embarrassed: "Sister Sanxi agreed."
Ye Tang's eyes lit up: "Agreed? Didn't you say you didn't agree before? Why did you change your mind again?"
Zhao Sanxi's face turned even redder, and he didn't even dare to raise his head: "I want to give him a chance, and I also want to gamble again."
Lin Chengye was so thoughtful that he didn't care that she had been pregnant before or that she was not a virgin. It would be a lie for her to say that she was not touched.
Although one cannot fully trust a man's words, she couldn't help but soften her heart when she saw Lin Chengye's sincere, clear and firm attitude just now.
Lin Chengye didn't care so much. For someone like her, why should she care about those things? She was going to get married, and marrying someone she was familiar with was much better than marrying some ugly guy.
"It should have been like this a long time ago." Ye Tang nodded with satisfaction: "If you like it, go for it, don't hesitate, live your life forward, I am optimistic about you two."
Lin Chengye glanced at Zhao Sanxi and smiled shyly, like a fool.
Lin Chengye and Zhao Sanxi discussed it and decided that Lin Chengye could go to the Zhao family to propose marriage early the next morning.
Several people returned to the braised food shop and told Ye Pingan the good news. Then Lin Chengye stayed to continue working, and Ye Tang took Zhao Sanxi home.
Ye Tang first sent Zhao Sanxi back to the Zhao family and told him about Lin Chengye.
Zhao Huaifu was completely stunned: "It turns out that Lin Chengye was making a fuss about wanting to separate from his family a few days ago, not only for freedom, but also for this purpose."
That little brat actually set his eyes on his daughter.
Zhao Dongsheng was also at home, and he was also surprised at this moment: "Does Lin Chengye really not care at all that you are a divorcee?"
Although the boy's family background was very poor and he was alone without the support of his parents, at least he had never married.
Zhao Sanxi nodded: "He said he didn't care, it wasn't my fault."
When they were in the pavilion, Lin Chengye told her about his childhood. When he was six years old, he went to the hillside to dig wild vegetables one day. He accidentally rolled down the hillside, hit his head on a rock, and fainted. She happened to pass by, woke him up, and called the villagers to rescue him.
That was her first meeting with Lin Chengye.
Later, every time Lin Chengye saw her, he would call her Sister Sanxi.
Zhao Huaifu and the others fell silent after hearing this. Wu Chunyu asked Zhao Sanxi, "Are you sure it's him?"
Zhao Sanxi nodded vigorously: "Yes."
Ye Tang said to the Zhao family: "Although Chengye has no house now and can only rent a house to get married, it won't be long before he can earn enough money to buy a house."
Zhao Huaifu said: "Buy? Isn't it to build a house?"
Ye Tang smiled and said, "Cheng Ye wants to buy a house in the county town."
The Zhao family was shocked.
Zhao Dongsheng exclaimed: "That will cost a lot of money?"
He didn't even dare to think about such a thing, so how could Lin Chengye dare?
Ye Tang: "Cheng Ye works very hard. Let me tell you something. He is the shopkeeper in my shop and his monthly salary is three taels."
The Zhao family members widened their eyes.
Can that small braised food shop pay Lin Chengye such a high salary?
After working hard for a month, the whole family could not earn even one or two taels of silver.
Lin Chengye could earn three taels of silver.
Ye Tang added: "After my family opens another shop in the future, Chengye will have more work to do. The more work he does, the more he will earn."
The Zhao family didn't know what to say. They knew that the Ye family made a lot of money in the county, but they didn't expect it to be so much that they could pay the shopkeeper three taels of silver a month.
The Zhao family finally agreed to the marriage between Zhao Sanxi and Lin Chengye, and promised not to make things difficult for Lin Chengye.
Ye Tang did not stay in the Zhao family for long. He said goodbye and left after the matter was settled. As soon as he returned home, he went to find Xiao Jingxuan to share the good news.
Two days later, the workshop officially opened, and people from Qingquan Village and Wenggang Village came to present gifts for congratulations. It was also on the morning of that day that Lin Chengye took a matchmaker to the Zhao family to propose marriage, and the news spread throughout Wenggang Village that day.
Uncle Lin was puzzled: "Where did this boy get the money to marry a wife?"
His eldest son said angrily, "Could it be that he has hidden some private money?"
The eldest aunt frowned: "He doesn't have the courage to hide the silver, it must be Ye Ping'an who lent it to him."
Uncle Lin was upset: "I suddenly regretted breaking up with Cheng Ye. I always felt that this kid would become successful in the future."
His second son sneered: "If he really becomes successful, let him help us. Blood ties cannot be severed with a piece of paper."
The eldest branch of the Lin family has their own thoughts.
Lin Chengye was recognized by the Zhao family and the wedding date was set for one month later.
Qingquan Village, Xiao’s House.
Ye Tang squatted at the entrance of the wolf den, looking at the little black cat nestling in the wolf mother's arms and sucking milk, and fell into deep thought.
"Sister, what are you looking at?" Ye Ping'an came behind her.
Ye Tang waved his hand and asked him to squat down. He pointed at the little black cat and said, "Take a closer look. Doesn't my Xiao Qi look a little bit strange? He's too big. He doesn't look like a normal cat anymore."
Ye Ping'an took a closer look and said, "It's a little big, but cats come in different sizes, so this should be normal."
Ye Tang stared at the little black cat with his eyes like searchlights: "No, I think it looks a bit like an animal. What animal is it? Let me think about it."
Ye Ping'an really wanted to say, aren’t cats animals?
Ye Tang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said suddenly: "I remember now, it's a leopard, a black panther!"
The little black cat in the wolf mother's arms trembled.
