Reborn and married to a stupid scholar, she has a prosperous husband and multiple children

At the dinner table, the whole family was beaming with joy, especially Dafang. Mrs. Liu and Dafang's three children were particularly happy today, and the joy on their faces could not be concealed.

But the second wife was not so happy. Wang was okay, she was used to being careless.

It also happened to be a happy event at home, so she was naturally happy.

But Gu Jinguo seemed worried. Although he was happy for his eldest brother, he was also worried about his second wife.

When he was in Hegou Village, he negotiated business with his wife, helped the family farm, ran errands for Lin Shuangshuang, worked on construction in the village, and managed the brick and tile factory and soap factory.

In short, there are endless things to do. Although I am tired, I live a fulfilling life every day.

He is not afraid of being tired, but he is afraid of having no work to do.

In his mind, not having a job means starving to death.

Although the family has saved a lot of money over the years and will not starve to death in the short term, he cannot be idle at all.

Especially now, his elderly father and disabled elder brother have things to do, and he, a strong man with good hands and feet, has free time.

He was worried. How could he, a grown man, be idle all day long, waiting for others to take care of him?

If he were in his hometown, he could still farm or go out to find work. If he couldn't, he could help the village with construction, so he wouldn't be idle all the time.

But the situation is different now. No matter how dull he is, he knows that although they don't need to behead, these people in the courtyard are sent by the emperor to monitor them.

He can't just do whatever he wants, he can only do it in a hurry!

He didn't complain that Lin Shuangshuang didn't find him a job, nor was he unhappy because Lin Shuangshuang didn't take the credit for him.

After all, he has never made those contributions in the first place, and he is not so bold as to insist on taking credit.

He was just worried about his future life, he couldn't just stay idle all his life.

Mrs. Wang was smiling when she suddenly saw her husband's frown, so she pinched his leg to stop him from being unhappy.

"I'm happy today, don't be embarrassed."

"If you really have nothing to do, go help dad grow cotton, help mom in the laundry, and help me cook. There are plenty of jobs for you to do."

Gu Jinguo smiled bitterly, nodded, and drank a glass of wine.

Lin Shuangshuang suddenly said: "Second brother and second sister-in-law, you guys go out with me tomorrow."

"Ah, can we go out?"

"Of course you can go out, don't worry about the guards at the door, they will stop you."

"They are here to protect us. We can come out whenever we want and come in whenever we want."

When the Gu family heard this, they were all happy. It would be nice to be able to come and go freely. They were really afraid that they would be locked up in this courtyard for the rest of their lives and had to ask for permission to come in and out. It was like being in prison.

Wang asked curiously: "Brothers and sisters, what are you going to do tomorrow?"

"You should find more work for your second brother. He is restless and will feel uncomfortable if you don't let him work."

Lin Shuangshuang burst out laughing: "I understand the second brother's temperament, that's why I didn't find any palace errands for the second brother."

"The amount of work in the palace is too humiliating for my second brother, a workaholic."

"Workaholic?"

Wang murmured softly, and then the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this word was the perfect word to describe her man.

"I plan to slowly transfer the businesses in the village and town to the capital. I can't stay in the capital for a long time, so I need my second brother to help me take care of it."

"After I go back and make arrangements, I will ask Shopkeeper Bai to come over and help."

"At that time, shopkeeper Bai will be the chief manager and the second brother will be the second manager."

Gu Jinguo was very convinced of this arrangement. Who didn't know that Bai Qiushui was a business genius, and he knew exactly how much he weighed.

He didn't dare to compete with Bai Qiushui for the position of chief executive.

Even if Lin Shuangshuang asked him to be the boss out of family ties, he would not accept it.

In fact, making him the second-in-command is a compliment to him.

"Brother and sister... I... am I qualified?"

"I can run errands and work, but I can't be a manager."

Lin Shuangshuang said with a smile: "Second brother, don't be nervous. When shopkeeper Bai comes, you can do whatever she arranges for you to do. Once you do it enough, you will be able to do it."

"While I'm staying in the capital, my second brother can just follow me. If he sees too much, he'll come back naturally."

Wang suddenly asked: "Then what should I do?"

"Second sister-in-law and I are going to visit some distinguished guests. These are all people our family has spoken to at court."

"We need to come to thank you in person."

"By the way, let me spread the word that my second sister-in-law can host the banquet. You can continue to do your job."

Wang's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, I'm good at this."

"Brothers and sisters, do you want me to make some specialty dishes or snacks? Otherwise, how would you know that our skills are good?"

"Second sister-in-law is interested, so let's prepare some snacks. It's not suitable for cooking. It won't taste good when it's cold."

"Okay, let me go and think about it."

After Wang said that, she went to prepare in a hurry.

"Second brother, you will also go with me tomorrow. It would be inappropriate for a man from the Gu family to come to thank you and not show up."

"It's not convenient for dad and eldest brother to go out, so it's just right for you to go."

"Row."

Next to her, Gu Xinghua also looked hesitant to speak. She wanted to reopen the clothing store.

But seeing Lin Shuangshuang so busy, he felt embarrassed to speak.

"Third sister, don't worry about the clothing store. After I arrange the things on hand, the clothing store can open on an auspicious day."

Gu Xinghua looked embarrassed. Did she show it so obviously?

She wanted to say that she wasn't in a hurry, but she was really worried, so she could only nod sheepishly.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. My sister-in-law has to take care of her eldest brother. My mother can't take care of so many children by herself. I just happen to help take care of the children."

"Brothers and sisters, are you a little overwhelmed with the osmanthus cake and mung bean cake?"

"I don't know the tastes of the nobles in the capital. Are they tired of eating these things? Would it be embarrassing for me to give them to them?"

Lin Shuangshuang thought for a while: "Second sister-in-law, let's make a cake, decorate it with flowers and fruits, and write some auspicious words in the middle, so it will be pleasing to the eye."

Wang hesitated: "I also wanted to make a cream cake at first, but I didn't have fresh fruits and flowers, so I was afraid it wouldn't look good."

"And there are no suitable gift boxes for packaging. I used to hold banquets in the village, and my family had custom-made gift boxes."

"There are no ready-made packaging boxes now?"

"It doesn't matter, sister-in-law, just leave the cake base and cream, I will prepare the rest."

Wang responded happily: "Okay, then I'll do it now."

Wang steamed ten cakes overnight and got up before dawn the next day to shape them.

Ten cakes was the number she and Lin Shuangshuang had agreed upon. She would visit at most ten houses a day, and she had to sit at every house she visited. She couldn't just put down her things and leave.

So don’t do too much at one time, do as much as you use every day.

Lin Shuangshuang took out a lot of fresh mango, strawberry, blueberry and dragon fruit from the space.

The flowers were picked at Wen's house. Wen Yunyun likes to grow flowers, and there are many varieties.

The box for the cake was also a ready-made one from the space, a transparent ribbon box, very high-end and exquisite.
