Wang Jiaozhen was deeply moved and full of gratitude towards Gu Yunxi.

If it weren't for Gu Yunxi, she would still be the owner of a small embroidery shop in Jihu Town, earning two taels of silver a month and living with Wenwen in a shabby little house in the town.

Every day she went to the embroidery shop to work, and Wenwen was alone at home. She moved out a small stool, sat in the yard embroidering, and waited eagerly for her to come home.

At that time, she also wanted to spend more time with her daughter, but she had no choice because she had to earn money to support her family.

She owes Wenwen too much.

Fortunately, things are different now. Now Wenwen and her, thanks to Yunxi, have come to the capital and can live in a house as big as the Lu family's. Wenwen will not be lonely in the Lu family because the Lu family has maids and old women.

Now, no matter how late she gets home, she won’t worry about Wenwen.

The Lu family took care of Wenwen for her and solved her worries.

Thinking of this, Wang Jiaozhen's eyes couldn't help but become wet, which made Gu Yunxi panic, wondering if something had happened to her.

"What's wrong, Sister Zhen, did I say something wrong?" Gu Yunxi felt a little self-blame and regretful, wondering if he had said something wrong just now.

Wang Jiaozhen held her hand, smiled and shook her head: "No, no, I'm happy, Yunxi, I really want to thank you, if it weren't for you, Wenwen and I would still be living in Jihu Town."

"When I was in Jihu Town, I never dared to imagine that one day I would be able to come to the capital, live in the capital, own an embroidery shop, and be the shopkeeper, and Wenwen would have someone to accompany her..."

As she spoke, Wang Jiaozhen's tears became more rapid and fell to the ground. Seeing this, Gu Yunxi hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe their tears.

Gu Yunxi comforted her, "Sister Zhen, don't cry. Your good days are still ahead. This is nothing!"

"We women can also hold up the sky. I can, and you can too. And you are even better than me. When you interact with customers in the shop, you are so calm and confident. Oh, I envy you so much. I can't do that."

Hearing Gu Yunxi praising her like this, Wang Jiaozhen couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "How can I be as good as you say?"

"If I say you're good, then you're good. Don't argue with me!" Gu Yunxi pretended to be angry, which made Wang Jiaozhen laugh again.

After the laughter, Wang Jiaozhen earnestly told Gu Yunxi about the business performance of the shop, the situation of purchasing goods from Shen’s Cloth Shop, which embroiderer had the best embroidery skills, which embroidery products sold best, etc.

Gu Yunxi listened attentively and asked a few questions. In half an hour, he had a clear understanding of the situation in the embroidery shop.

"Sister Zhen, you have been very hard-working during this period. Because of my father's matter, I went back home and didn't have time to draw new patterns."

"I will start drawing tonight and give you three tomorrow morning. You should ask the embroiderers to do it first, and I will continue drawing the others."

Wang Jiaozhen nodded and advised: "Actually, there is no need to rush. The products in the shop are selling well now and the business is still very good. They can be sold for a while."

Gu Yunxi shook his head: "Our shop agreed to deliver a new batch of goods every two weeks. There can be no delay. This is basic integrity."

"It doesn't take me long to draw a simple pattern. I can finish it tonight. Don't worry, Sister Zhen. It won't interfere with my rest."

When the shop first opened, it announced that it would ship a new batch of goods every half a month. As she had been back home for nearly a month, the patterns that had been given to Sister Zhen in advance had all been used up.

Sister Zhen was worried that she was busy at home, so she didn't dare write to her to tell her. Otherwise, she would have to find time to draw it at home.

Gu Yunxi sighed and said, "Sister Zhen, don't do this again in the future. Our integrity is the most important thing. Otherwise, how will our customers think of our shop in the future?"

"You can't let my fault affect the business of the entire shop, even if I'm the boss! Besides, aren't you the boss too? You have the responsibility to supervise me, too!"

Seeing her seriousness, Wang Jiaozhen could only smile and nod in agreement: "Okay, okay, just this once, I won't do this again in the future."

Gu Yunxi was satisfied then. He looked around the shop with Wang Jiaozhen and discussed how to improve the shop's layout.

The sun was about to set before Gu Yunxi and Wang Jiaozhen realized what was happening. They hurriedly told the waiter to count the embroidery products and close the shop after that.

On the way back to Lu's house, Wang Jiaozhen and Gu Yunxi walked, while Xiao Cui and Mrs. Qiu followed behind them without saying a word.

Passing by a roast chicken shop and smelling the delicious roast chicken, Gu Yunxi's stomach suddenly growled, causing everyone to laugh.

Gu Yunxi felt a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly, and told Xiao Cui: "Xiao Cui, this roast chicken looks good, go buy a few and bring them home for dinner."

Xiao Cui suppressed her smile, went forward to queue up, and waited for a while before buying a few roast chickens. She picked them up in her hands and quickly followed Gu Yunxi back to the Lu family.

After arriving home, Xiao Cui took the roast chicken to the kitchen, asked Sister Ying to cut it into pieces, and then brought it to the dining room.

"Wow, roast chicken! What day is today? We are eating roast chicken?" Lu Jianan was so excited that his little hand couldn't help but reach out for the roast chicken leg.

Xiao Cuihou stood aside and explained with a smile: "Young Master, this is the roast chicken that the Young Madam asked me to buy from outside. It's the best one on the main street."

"An An, wait until your grandparents come before eating." He Feng said slowly. Upon hearing this, Lu Jianan had to withdraw his hand and sucked his saliva hard.

"What are we having for dinner tonight? You look so happy. I can smell the fragrance from far away. The food cooked by Sister Ying is still as delicious as ever..." Mrs. He sat down slowly with the help of Mother Wang.

He Feng stood next to her, smiled and pointed at two plates of roasted chicken, and said, "Mom, it's roasted chicken. Yun Xi bought it outside. It smells delicious."

"Roast chicken? There used to be a Yunlai roast chicken in the capital city. They have been doing it for many years. It smells very good. I ate it when I was a child. I don't know if that roast chicken shop is still open?" Mrs. He murmured as she looked at the roast chicken.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui hurriedly said, "Oh, old lady, what a coincidence, the name of this roast chicken shop is also Yunlai Roast Chicken!"

"When we bought them just now, the line was very long. I waited for a long time before I could buy these few."

Mrs. He was slightly surprised by Xiao Cui's words. She didn't expect that the shop that existed in her childhood memory was still open? It must have been many years!

I thought everything would be different when I returned to the capital, but I didn't expect that there was still the Yunlai Roast Chicken Shop. This really... made Mrs. He feel very emotional.

These days, Mrs. Xu often came to her to ask about Buddhism. A while ago, she even followed her to a Buddhist event. After spending a month together, Mrs. Xu left a very good impression on her.

Her attitude towards the Xu family also began to loosen up a little.
