It was the same for them now. The few of them divided the work between them now, Lady Li, Mo Xiaoyan and Liu Yuemei were responsible for cooking the kebabs and secret roasted chicken. Mo Xiaoxia and Wang Dacheng were responsible for making the steamed buns.
Wang Dacheng and Mo Xiaoxia's relationship had grown closer by quite a bit, and these Lady Li and Mo Dalin had all seen this, and were optimistic about Wang Dacheng and Mo Xiaoyan's match.
While they were idling in the kitchen, Lady Li thought to ask Wang Dacheng and Mo Xiaoxia about their thoughts. They weren't young anymore, and were about the age where they could get married, so they couldn't just continue wasting time like this.
"Dacheng, aunty sees that you're not young anymore. Do you have any girls you like?" Lady Li pretended to ask casually.
"Aunt, why did you suddenly ask me this?" Wang Dacheng was more honest and honest, and his skin was thin as well, so he never revealed what he was thinking about to Mo Xiaoxia.
"That's right. Mom, why are you asking me this question?" In fact, Mo Xiaoxia was looking forward to Wang Dacheng's answer.
"Hur hur, isn't this just a casual chat? What's there to not say? The relationship between this Mastery and our family is so good." The Lady Li said with a smile.
"Aunt, I already have a girl I like." Wang Dacheng scratched his head and said.
"Really? Is this girl from Beijing or from our town? " Lady Li asked.
"Aunt, the girl I like is actually …" Wang Dacheng didn't say it out loud when his words reached the tip of his tongue.
"Who is it?" Mo Xiaoyan asked with a smile on her face.
"Actually, all of you know each other." Wang Dacheng still didn't say that the girl he liked was actually Mo Xiaoxia.
"Who is it?" Lady Li asked.
"It's Xiaoxia." Wang Dacheng hesitated but he still said it out loud.
"You like my Xiaoxia, don't you?"
"Aunt, yes, I have always wanted to tell you that I want to marry Xiaoxia, but even if I am embarrassed, I am afraid that Xiaoxia would not like me." Wang Dacheng said honestly.
Hearing Wang Dacheng's words, Mo Xiaoxia was actually quite happy in her heart, but at the same time, she was a little embarrassed.
"Really? Then what about Xiaoxia? What do you think? " Lady Li asked.
"Mom, why are you asking me this?" Mo Xiaoxia was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Wang Dacheng was also looking forward to Mo Xiaoxia's answer, but Mo Xiaoxia was especially embarrassed and didn't say anything.
"Xiaoxia, if you fancy me and think that I am worthy of you entrusting your entire life to me, can you marry me? These few years, I have also saved up some money, so I won't let you eat until you're full and wear warm clothes. " Wang Dacheng had already worked hard for Mo Xiaoxia, from setting up stalls on the streets to renting a shop in the town, it was already considered not bad.
"Second Sister, hurry up and answer." Mo Xiaoyan pulled at Mo Xiaoxia's clothes.
"Yeah, I think Big Brother Dacheng is pretty good." Mo Xiaoxia was very tactful.
"Xiaoxia, if you promise me, I'll get someone to bring my parents to the capital. Let's get married early." Wang Dacheng said happily.
"Ah?" Isn't it too early? " Mo Xiaoxia said shyly.
"It's getting late, I really want to quickly marry you and enter the sect." Wang Dacheng didn't care about face anymore, and wasn't shy anymore. Since he mentioned this matter today, he might as well make it clear for them all at once.
"I don't even know if my parents will agree." Mo Xiaoxia still listened to her family's words more.
"Aunt, do you agree to the marriage between Xiaoxia and I?" Wang Dacheng asked seriously.
"We have to discuss this with Xiaoxia's father." Although Lady Li did not immediately agree, she had long accepted this pair.
"Alright, then I'll get someone to bring my parents over in the afternoon." Wang Dacheng thought that this marriage would work.
When Wang Dacheng returned in the afternoon, he couldn't wait and went to find Mo Dalin and Lady Li.
"Dacheng, why are you looking for us?" Mo Dalin did not know that they had discussed about Wang Dacheng and Mo Xiaoxia in the kitchen today.
"Uncle, I want to marry Xiaoxia, but I don't know if you would agree." Wang Dacheng said with a serious face.
"Dacheng, are you sincere?" Mo Dalin asked.
"I am sincere, I have always been wholehearted towards Xiaoxia, and I came to the capital this time for Xiaoxia too. I was afraid that you would not return to the capital for a long time, so I also came along with me." It was because of Mo Xiaoxia that Wang Dacheng came to the capital this time, otherwise he would not have run so far to the capital.
"I feel that it's good for you to be together with Xiaoxia. Our two families have known each other for a long time, and we know your character, so we can be at ease when Xiaoxia marries you." Lady Li said with a smile on her face.
"Really? "Did you all agree?" Wang Dacheng said excitedly.
"Mm, I agree." Mo Dalin and Lady Li said at the same time.
"Alright, I'll send someone to fetch my parents later." Wang Dacheng was so excited that he stood up.
"Hur hur, go quickly." Mo Dalin laughed.
Wang Dacheng found two people that he trusted and brought along his family's carriage to set off early the next morning. This trip would take about two months, so it wasn't too early to go back and pick them up.
After the new year, the business in the shop was not bad, but Mo Xiaoyan realized that a lot of beggars had come to the shop recently, and some of them even seemed to be disaster victims who had come running here from other places.
"Xiaoyan, why is it that more and more beggars and refugees have come to the capital recently? I wonder where did they come from?" Lady Li said as she busily worked in the kitchen.
"Yeah, I noticed it too. Some of them are quite pitiful." Mo Xiaoyan felt very pitiful looking at these elderly and kids. They didn't even have enough to eat a full meal, and no one in the imperial court cared about them.
"Eh, that's right. It's already good enough for us to have a full meal this year." Lady Li's pursuit was not high, it was fine as long as she did not need to worry about food or clothes.
"Mom, I've thought of a way, but I don't know if it'll work." Mo Xiaoyan had thought of it last night, but she was afraid that her family would disagree on what she should do.
"Tell me what it is?" I said we'll see if it works. " The Lady Li said.
Mother, I want to make porridge outside our store every afternoon for the beggars and the victims to eat. We do not lack this amount of silver right now, so many people will not starve to death. Mo Xiaoyan spoke out her thoughts.
"What?" Serve porridge? "So many people. How can we do that?" Lady Li's first thought was that she did not want to. After all, her family's silver was hard to earn, and not something that came from a strong wind.
