Nan Xiaobao narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded thoughtfully, with a faint smile on his lips, and said slowly: "Well, the taste is indeed better than that of state-owned restaurants! What? Are you planning to marry me?" After saying that, he raised his eyebrows with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Tang Hua, who was standing by, covered her face with her hands when she heard this, not knowing how to respond. She muttered to herself, "How can this guy be so direct!"

Tang Zijun stared at Nan Xiaobao with eyes wide open in astonishment, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Oh my goodness, is this the so-called straight man my sister mentioned? He doesn't know how to be tactful when speaking!"

Everyone in the Bai family looked at each other with confusion and surprise on their faces, as if they were very surprised by Nan Xiaobao's words.

However, in this chaos, only Bai Xue remained calm.

She just shook her head slightly, then said to Nan Xiaobao with a smile: "Huh, if I were to marry you just because you can cook, then wouldn't you have to marry several wives?" There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

When everyone heard Bai Xue's answer, they were stunned at first, and then they all burst into laughter. The whole scene suddenly became lively and full of laughter.

Not long after lunch, Mayor Bai and his family went back home, and Tang Hua and her family also took the children back to their room to rest.

The next morning, the sunlight shone through the thin clouds and fell on the ground. Tang Zijun set out on the journey back to Kyoto early.

In this way, many affairs in Hai City were naturally handed over to Nan Xiaobao, and sometimes, Tang Hua would bring the children to the construction site to inspect the situation.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the middle of April in the lunar calendar. On this day, Tang Hua first called Gu Chuan to ask about air conditioning. After all, the weather was getting hotter, and air conditioning was an indispensable cooling device in the summer.

That night, Tang Hua called Gu Chuan again, wanting to know more details. When she learned that Kyoto had already started selling this air conditioner and that the market feedback was good and the results were quite good, Tang Hua couldn't help but feel delighted.

Then, she said to Gu Chuan without hesitation: "Brother B, please help me arrange for 20 air conditioners to be delivered to Hai City."

Gu Chuan was stunned and asked, "Why do you need so much?"

Then, she carefully planned the use of these air conditioners. "Among them, two need to be installed in the guest room here; one should be installed in the inner room and the outer room of the room we live in; in addition, one should be installed in each of the eight rooms in the security room at the back and where Assistant Feng Siyan lives.

If there are any changes and I need to leave here, I can just dismantle them. Oh, by the way! As for the remaining eight, I plan to give them to those families in the family compound with whom I have a good relationship. "

After hearing this, Gu Chuan agreed, and said that he would bring a few technicians to install it in about a week.

Tang Hua thought that the installation could be completed before the Dragon Boat Festival, so she could just let the starling take the package back home. She was too lazy to drive to the post office to send it.

In recent times, the relationship between Nan Xiaobao and Xiao Baixue has become closer and closer. This change not only makes the two young people happy, but also the parents of both sides are happy to see it. They all agree that they should get to know each other first.

However, good times are always short-lived, because there are mountains of affairs in the research institute that need Nan Xiaobao to deal with them, so when he heard that Gu Chuan was coming to stay for a few days, he might have to return to Kyoto with them.

Thinking of this, Nan Xiaobao couldn't help but look embarrassed. He found Tang Hua with a troubled heart and said earnestly, "Brother-in-law, sister, there is too much work waiting for me to do at the research institute. Grandpa Zhang has been urging me for a long time, so I can't stay here for too long. But facing Xiao Baixue... I really don't know what to do now."

Feng Siyan, who was standing aside, looked at Nan Xiaobao quietly, with a trace of thought in his eyes. Then he gently placed his hand on his wife's shoulder and slowly asked, "Xiaobao, have you thought about this matter clearly and made up your mind?"

Nan Xiaobao nodded without hesitation, showing a satisfied look on his face.

In fact, at the beginning, Nan Xiaobao only regarded Xiao Baixue as a cute little sister, but as the two spent more and more time together, he gradually discovered more charming shining points in Baixue.

Her character is innocent and pure as a blank sheet of paper, but she is by no means stupid.

On the contrary, she had been well taught in many things, and her every move and gesture showed the demeanor of a lady from a noble family, graceful and elegant, which made people fall in love with her.

Tang Hua looked at the silly look of this guy in front of him and couldn't help but find it a little funny, but she couldn't help but ask again: "Then how did Xiao Baixue respond to you? Don't keep me in suspense! Tell me nicely."

Nan Xiaobao's face flushed slightly, like a ripe apple. He said shyly, "This afternoon, I mustered up the courage to confess to her. I didn't expect that she has always liked me, so... I was thinking about whether we could settle the relationship first."

Hearing this, Tang Hua seemed to understand something, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Oh? So that's how it is, so you need us to go get some information for you and see if the other person's parents agree to let you two get engaged first?"

After hearing this, Nan Xiaobao nodded weakly like a puppy who had made a mistake, and muttered softly: "After all, Xiao Baixue is only seventeen years old after her birthday. I'm actually quite unsure in my heart. I'm always worried that it's too early to bring up this matter now."

At this moment, Feng Siyan on the side suddenly snorted coldly, and said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Humph, you are a guy who has some self-awareness. You even know that I am not yet an adult? You are really a beast!"

As soon as these words came out, Nan Xiaobao's eyes widened instantly, his face full of disbelief, staring straight at his brother-in-law.

Tang Hua was so distressed to see her brother looking so aggrieved that she raised her hand without saying a word and slapped her brother-in-law hard on the thigh. She shouted angrily, "Reflect on yourself and tell me how old you were when you started to have evil thoughts about me!"

Feng Siyan was silent at this moment, and could only helplessly say, "It just so happens that the mayor is coming to a meeting tomorrow. I'll find out after the meeting, or should you go ask Aunt Wei?"

Tang Hua thought for a moment, looked at Nan Xiaobao and said, "I'll ask Aunt Wei tomorrow. If she agrees, we can set a time, and then you can ask your uncle and mother to come over after discussing it."
