Chapter 611: Chapter 615: Seeking Help_1
"Wife, you’re truly incredible. If you became an official, there would definitely be no unsolved cases in the future,"
Tan Zhenghong gave a thumbs up. He had also followed to the carpenter’s shop a few times but had not noticed that detail.
Qiao Duo’er said smugly, "You should see who I am!"
"That’s right, who could be as smart as my wife!" Tan Zhenghong said proudly.
Today, it’s the Zou Clan’s turn to watch the shop, surely because the business has been booming recently, and the others are too busy to handle it.
Otherwise, Li Yang would not let his own mother suffer.
When the Zou’s saw Qiao Duo’er coming, she quickly greeted, "Duo’er, you haven’t visited my home for quite a few days now. Did you forget about me?"
"Of course not, I’ve just been too busy with things to come to town."
"Look at you, all tired and thin, with a pale complexion. You can’t just focus on being busy; it’s not good for a woman to lose blood and energy,"
the Zou’s took Qiao Duo’er’s hand, her face full of concern.
Qiao Duo’er nodded but her mind was not there before the matter of the Sleeve Arrow was resolved.
So she went straight to the point, "Thank you for your concern, Auntie. Is Brother Feng not at the shop today?"
"He went out for a delivery, but he’s been gone for a while now. Go to the back hall to rest for a while; they’ll be back soon,"
the Zou’s led them to the back hall and made tea for the two of them.
"Auntie, the shop can’t be left unattended. You go ahead; Ah Hong and I will just wait here,"
Qiao Duo’er suggested.
Ever since they started selling sofas and bunk beds, the shop had been bustling. Plus, with Duo’er suggesting they stock up on powder boxes, all the carpenters were busy, even the apprentices had no free time.
Li Yang made it clear that the front of the shop should never be left empty; they absolutely couldn’t let some people come in and cause trouble.
It seems a lot of people were envious of their family business now.
"Then I’ll go to the front. Don’t mind my lacking hospitality," the Zou’s said, taking the opportunity, but she felt it was improper.
They were guests, and not just any guests but benefactors of the Feng Family. Leaving them alone in the back hall seemed too impolite.
"Auntie, we’ve known each other for a while. You’re being too formal,"
Qiao Duo’er answered, and the Zou’s happily went to the front.
Before long, Li Yang came back, and upon hearing that Duo’er was in the back hall, he immediately went there.
The Zou’s looked at his retreating figure and sighed. If Duo’er weren’t married, she would be willing to spend her entire fortune to bring Duo’er into her family.
Duo’er was a good girl, but she wasn’t the only good girl. Her son could definitely find someone suitable.
In the back hall.
Li Yang apologized, "I got delayed by something on the way, and made you wait for a long time."
"Brother Feng, we just arrived not long ago," Tan Zhenghong replied politely.
Li Yang nodded, "Good to know that. By the way, did you come suddenly because of an urgent matter? Or is there a problem with the powder boxes?"
"Brother Feng’s craftsmanship is excellent; of course, there won’t be any issues. I came to ask for a favor,"
Qiao Duo’er explained the situation with Da Ya and Er Ya being captured and mentioned the need for the Sleeve Arrow. 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
"Of course there’s no issue. I’ll just tell my mother and delegate my current tasks to someone else. I’ll strive to modify the Sleeve Arrow by the day after tomorrow,"
Li Yang readily agreed; he would be more than willing to help Qiao Duo’er.
After Li Yang left, Qiao Duo’er turned to Tan Zhenghong, "It might take some time here. Why don’t you go do the shopping and head back first?"
"Okay, I’ll come back for you in the evening,"
Tan Zhenghong agreed without hesitation; he was very confident in Qiao Duo’er.
But he would be worried if she didn’t return home by evening; it wouldn’t be good for her reputation if word got out.
