Chapter 769: Chapter 774 Don’t Care About Empty Fame_1
Qiao Duo’er didn’t dare to take credit because without Wind Liyang, she would never have been able to create the Sleeve Arrow.
"Then let’s work together with utmost sincerity in the future, and we’ll surely rise to the next level," Gu Qingdie said with a smile.
"That’s a must!" Qiao Duo’er was full of confidence.
Afterward, the two began discussing the sales plan for the threshing machine, which, barring any surprises, would be the biggest event at the carpentry shop this year.
The bellows had already been launched on the market and had received unanimous praise from everyone.
The carpentry shop had hired three more carpenter masters, but still couldn’t satisfy the public demand, often needing to work overtime.
As for the threshing machines, they were still stored in the warehouse, just waiting for the wheat harvest to truly demonstrate their power.
Qiao Duo’er and Gu Qingdie discussed fervently, and it wasn’t long before they had set the price and also came up with several promotional strategies.
Most of the time, the Zou’s listened to them speak, only occasionally adding a comment or two.
Qiao Duo’er had many great ideas, and her son had excellent skills, so together they could create impressive things.
Now with the addition of Gu Qingdie, who was modest and skilled at dealing with matters, they would be a strong team, and she could completely let go and not worry about it.
Hmm... Her days would be carefree from now on!
Suddenly remembering her future mother-in-law, Gu Qingdie quickly said, "Madam, what do you think of these plans?"
Zou’s said contentedly, "I’m old and can’t keep up with you young people’s quick thinking, and in the future, I’ll be at ease being Duo’er’s assistant."
Zou’s was very open-minded about this matter.
The young would be the ones to support the family in the future, so why should she cling to the power of running the household?
Besides, her own child was capable, and she as a mother couldn’t be happier.
"I dare not employ you all the time, with Brother Feng and Qingdie both busy in the shop, won’t you need to help take care of the children?" Qiao Duo’er said mischievously, knowing that no matter how much she offered, the Zou’s wouldn’t be willing to work by then.
"Don’t talk nonsense." Gu Qingdie’s face was so red it looked like it would drip blood.
She was still unmarried, so how did the conversation turn to having children?
The Zou’s, beaming with delight, said, "Duo’er is right, that day will surely come!"
Gu Qingdie hung her head, knowing that Wind Liyang didn’t have her in his heart yet.
She would just silently accompany him, believing that one day she would move Wind Liyang, make him unable to leave her, and then gradually fall in love with her.
It might be difficult, but she would persevere.
Qiao Duo’er had intended to keep the Zou’s and Gu Qingdie for dinner, but they were soon dragged to the Tie Family by the daring big girl who arrived later.
Since Qiao Duo’er was now a sixth-rank official, An Ren, the old madam had led the family’s women to greet her at the gate.
Seeing that they were about to kneel, Qiao Duo’er quickly said, "If you are this formal, I really won’t dare to come in the future!"
"The Saint’s rewards have been given; if we don’t observe the proper etiquette, the Saint will blame us."
The old madam still insisted, as some things required that level of propriety.
She didn’t want to be the subject of criticism at her age.
The big girl chimed in to persuade, "Grandma, just listen to Sister Duo’er. They don’t care about such superficial formalities. Look, today Brother Zheng Hong even went hunting in the mountains with others."
"Big girl really understands me. If everyone were to be so nervous around me, I could only stay at home from now on."
Seeing Qiao Duo’er’s response, the old madam finally did not insist further.
"Then come in quickly, we’ll be eating soon!" the old madam called out.
Although they didn’t insist on empty formalities, the Tie Family offered Qiao Duo’er the very best they had.
Others’ modesty was due to their good character; if they didn’t take them seriously because of that, they would be the foolish ones.
