Chapter 167 Good Proposal
172
Seeing Su Kefang's blank face, Fan Zhida couldn't help but sigh.

How dull must his wife be?
In fact, it wasn't that Su Kefang was slow, but that she didn't think about it at all. She was thinking about whether the dividends that Li Chi sent over for the past two months should be saved or used to expand the business?

It wasn't until Xiang Zirun pulled her out of the fried chicken shop that she belatedly guessed that it might be because of Li Chi that his face was dark.

Although she and Li Chi were just friends plus partners, Su Kefang decided to coax him well because of himself.

When the two walked out of the street, they happened to meet a vegetable vendor who was delivering vegetables to the vegetable market. Seeing some handfuls of leeks in his basket, Su Kefang poked a finger on the arm of the man with a stinky face beside him, He asked in a tone that sounded like coaxing a child: "Would you like to make leek dumplings for you at noon?"

Hearing the word "leek", Xiang Zirun's face darkened a little.

"No!" he said sullenly.

He didn't understand, how could she think he likes to eat leeks?

And he was out of his mind, he didn't want to tell her that he didn't like leeks at all!
Originally, Su Kefang could have spared the wasted money, but for some reason, seeing his awkward expression, she couldn't help but want to tease him, and regardless of his refusal, she yelled at the vegetable vendor: "Boss! , wait a minute, give me some leeks."

The vegetable vendor had just listened to the conversation between the two, and when he heard Su Kefang shout, he immediately stopped and put down the basket, took out a bundle of leeks and handed it to Su Kefang.

After paying the money, Su Kefang shook the chives in his hand towards the man beside him, blinked and smiled and said, "Let's eat leek dumplings at noon!"

The strong smell of leeks rushed straight into his nostrils, and Xiang Zirun frowned. Although he still didn't like the smell very much, he didn't spit it out when he smelled raw leeks like before.

Xiang Zirun was secretly surprised, could it be that he has eaten too many leeks recently, so he slowly accepted the taste?
This is unlikely. When Lin Zhaohong first came to the mountain, he knew that he didn't like the smell of leeks, so he often deliberately brought some leeks back from the mountain. Every time he smelled the smell from a distance, he would vomit.

"Do you want vegetarian dumplings or meat dumplings?" She didn't know what he was thinking, so she asked.

"Meaty."

He responded casually, and was stunned for a moment when he finished speaking, then snorted arrogantly, took the leek in her hand with one hand, and led her to the meat stall in the market with the other.

As soon as he returned to the yard on Nantong Street, Su Kefang assigned him the job of washing leeks. Xiang Zirun's face froze for a moment, but he obediently took the wooden basin and leeks to the well to fetch water and wash them.

Su Kefang chopped the meat and saw that the leeks on his side hadn't been washed, so he went over to help.

Su Kefang went into the kitchen to chop leeks, and Xiang Zirun hid in the study.

After the dumplings were cooked, Su Kefang put them on a plate and served them to the table. While eating, he said, "I don't think I told you, but I actually like leeks."

"Really?" Knowing that she likes to eat leeks, Xiang Zirun suddenly felt that this thing is actually not so bad.

"Well, I used to grow leeks myself." She smiled nostalgicly.

In her previous life, the first time she planted leeks was wild leeks dug from the wild. At that time, Master praised her rarely after eating the dumplings made with the leeks she had grown.

Now that things have changed, I don't know where Master is now?
Facing the melancholy in her eyes, he pursed his lips and said, "If you like it, let's go back and get some leek seeds."

She hooked her lips: "OK."

After eating the dumplings, the husband and wife went back to the study, one was drawing drawings and the other was carving toys.

Xiang Zirun saw through the hollow wooden wall that she put a carved ordinary toy on the table next to her, and then picked up the golden nanmu he brought back from the mountain to look at it, as if wondering where it came from. Position under the knife.

Xiangzi moistened his eyes, put down his pen, poured a glass of still warm water from the table, and walked in.

"Drink some water and take a break." He squeezed into the armchair that barely accommodated two of them.

"What's the matter?" Seeing the imperceptible flattering smile on his lips, Su Kefang immediately became vigilant.

"It's okay, it's just that I'm so tired to see you." He stretched out his long arms, hugged her into his arms, rubbed his chin with a little beard on the top of her head, and murmured.

Su Kefang raised his brows lightly, this guy is in heat again?
"Daughter-in-law, you said before that doing business is your interest and not for money, right?" He asked in a low voice.

"Yeah." She nodded, not knowing why he would ask this.

"Since this is the case, then your goal must not only be in the one-acre three-point land in Huaitang County, is it?" He boldly guessed.

She looked up at him and said with a smile, "You know that?"

He took advantage of the opportunity to kiss her on the lips: "You are my wife!"

She laughed: "What kind of logic is this?"

He didn't let her take the topic away, and said seriously: "Since you have this idea, you can no longer do everything by yourself in the future."

She was taken aback: "I don't have to do everything myself?"

Aunt Lu and the others helped make the fish floss and tempeh dace. Uncle Zhao also took care of the fish floss shop. Fu Liang and Fan Dazhi also paid for the fried chicken. She really didn't feel how busy she was.

"Then what is this?" Xiang Zirun picked up the transformed storage tank toy she had just engraved, and asked persuasively: "Just think about it, your ability alone is limited. If every toy has to pass through your hands, this toy will not How will the shop's business expand?"

Hearing his words, Su Kefang paused, but began to think seriously.

He was right, she has two hands alone, and no matter how fast she can only carve a few toys a day, it would be impossible to open a branch shop in other places.

She thought for a while, then squinted at him: "What suggestion do you have?"

Based on what she knew about him, if he had no idea, he definitely wouldn't have mentioned it to her.

"I have an idea, but I don't know if you accept it or not?" He lowered his eyes and looked at her with piercing eyes.

"Let's hear it first."

"I suggest that you find a few female apprentices and teach them some simple toy carving methods. The toys they carve can only meet the requirements of ordinary customers, and you will be responsible for carving some difficult toys with high-quality wood. , in order to attract those customers who really like your toys, but those who can afford the toys you carve with high-quality wood must have a high status, do you think this will make it easier for your toy shop to gain fame?"

Su Kefang pondered for a while, then looked back at him with sparkling almond eyes: "You are right, but I have to discuss this matter with Li Chi."

After all, Li Chi is also one of the owners of the toy shop.
