Chapter 206: Wife, You Just Said It Yourself
Half a month later.
Wang Sister-In-Law and her family finished dealing with matters in the village and quickly returned.
Luo Ge prepared everything needed for the workshop to start operations and settled their family in their new residence.
With this, the Wang family had officially settled down in Ningzhou City.
........................
Meanwhile, on the other side.
"Ge'er," called out a voice from inside the Ningzhou Drunken Fragrance Tower, where Ling Yun was busily working away.
When Luo Ge arrived, she saw Ling Yun happily humming a tune while diligently keeping accounts. Upon noticing Luo Ge, she looked up and called out with a smile.
"Sister-in-law," Luo Ge responded, feeling somewhat helpless at the sight.
It was just half a month ago when her sister-in-law had shyly approached her with a question.
She had asked if there were any suitable money-making jobs for her, saying she wanted to try earning her own living.
She explained that she didn't want to spend her days cooped up in the manor embroidering flowers and grass, or waiting for some young woman to invite her for flower tea and flower appreciation.
Being confined to the mansion day in and day out, with social interactions limited to the compound, was a lifestyle she truly disliked.
Luo Ge hadn't objected to this and didn't refuse her request.
After some inquiry, she discovered that Ling Yun was quite proficient in arithmetic, so she suggested letting her try bookkeeping at the restaurant.
Ling Yun had agreed almost without hesitation, and now she was truly excelling at her job.
However... she had become too engrossed in her work, spending almost every day at the restaurant and rarely going home.
With her brother unable to find his wife at home, Luo Ge was in a difficult position.
Today, Luo Ge had been sent by Luo Shiyan to call for his wife.
"Ahem, Sister-in-law, didn't you and my brother agree to take Zhen Heng to the lake today?" Luo Ge cleared her throat and spoke up.
Hearing this, Ling Yun was taken aback and turned to look at Luo Ge in confusion.
"Didn't he say it was the day after tomorrow?"
Clearly, she had remembered it wrong.
"Ahem, he told me today that it was supposed to be today. I saw that both father and son were already prepared. Perhaps you should go back and get ready too?" Luo Ge suggested.
"Ah!" Ling Yun immediately wanted to rush back, but then hesitated, thinking about the work she had at hand.
Luo Ge cleared her throat again and took the items from her hands.
"I can handle these. You should go back first, Sister-in-law. In the future, try not to overwork yourself. You need to pay attention to rest as well."
Knowing that Luo Ge was reminding her, Ling Yun nodded seriously.
"Alright, I'll remember next time. So... I'll head back now?" She felt a bit embarrassed about leaving work so hastily.
Luo Ge didn't notice her slight change in expression and just waved her hand.
"Go on, don't keep them waiting too long."
After Ling Yun left, Gu Jinchen appeared with their children, all four pairs of eyes looking expectantly at Luo Ge.
"Wife, you just said it yourself – don't overwork and pay attention to rest," he reminded her.
"We also have plans to go to the lake today."
Luo Ge felt embarrassed. "Ahem, alright, alright. I got it. Let's go then." She looked at her husband, quickly tidied up the things in her hands, and followed behind them.
Unexpectedly, they hadn't gone far when they saw Ling Yun and her family waiting not far ahead.
"Ge'er, your brother says the place you chose is more fun. Let's go together!"
"Father and Mother will join us in a while."
Well... A family outing to the lake wasn't bad either. They enjoyed a simple excursion and then found some food for a picnic.
It was another happy and blessed day.
