Chapter 415 My Marriage
It is closer to the city from Dazaozhuang than from Xiahe Village, so there is no need to set out before dawn.

The Song family members felt sorry for Shi Liu because she didn't stay at the farm to escape the heat but had to go out every few days. They kept telling her not to travel under the hot sun and to rest when she needed to. If she couldn't come back tonight, she shouldn't rush and could just stay in the city for a night.

In short, it’s hot, so take good care of yourself.

The Song family also prepared some special herbal tea to dispel summer heat and clear away heat, and put it in a water bag for Pomegranate to take with her on the road to drink so that she wouldn't get too hot.

In such weather, there are fewer pedestrians on the road. There are only a few horse carriages in a row, and it is a bit deserted.

We walked slowly and steadily along the way and soon entered Dafengji.

The carriage did not go directly across the bridge to the official road, but went through the market and arrived at the Datong Warehouse near the dock.

Shi Liu got off the car and asked them to go to the food stall on the dock to have breakfast first, while she took Fu Dong to the warehouse.

Ding Fuguang, who was sitting behind the counter inside and leisurely drinking morning tea, was also happy to see Shi Liu coming.

"You haven't had breakfast yet? That's great, let's eat together!" Ding Fuguang stretched out his hand to greet him, then turned around and asked He An to run errands to buy some of Shi Pomegranate's favorite breakfasts.

He asked Shi Liu to sit down and poured her a cup of tea. "Is it still cool on the farm? Your stepmother and her family also went to the farm to escape the heat a few days ago. Is your grandmother's 60th birthday party going to be held on the farm? Your stepbrother and I will come then."

Shi Liu took the tea and continued, "It's cool on the farm, so we won't have much to do. Invite the Hong Family Troupe to perform for two days. My grandmother liked the Hong Family Troupe's performance last time. Let's invite all the relatives to the farm to have some fun together!"

"These two brothers from the Jin family and the Hong family are both good singers. It would be nice to invite them to sing for two days!" Ding Fuguang responded and talked about the new business of Shi Liu and Liu Dongjia.

"When will it officially open? I also know some old friends in the trade, and I'll ask them to take care of the business and help it gain a good reputation."

Upon hearing this, Shi Liu laughed: "That's great. I'd like to thank my godfather first! By the end of the month, we will be able to start accepting orders from several prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Bingzhou. You can't become a big fat man in one bite. Liu Dongjia and I have the same idea. We will first build a scale in Bingzhou and then slowly expand to other states."

In Bingzhou, the round trip of the team is only seven or eight days. The team is familiar with the route and has accumulated enough experience. It will be more confident when going further. It can also be regarded as a trial operation to see what can be done in Bingzhou. If it fails, it can save a lot of effort and money by cutting losses in time.

Although it is impossible not to succeed, it is always right to take it step by step.

Ding Fuguang nodded.

Just then, He An also bought breakfast.

Shi Liu took a bite of tofu pudding and then started talking about marriage. "Let my godfather know that my marriage is finally settled. When the man comes to propose marriage and make an appointment, my godfather and godmother will come to have a meal to make things more lively."

Hearing this, Ding Fuguang was shocked. It was decided so quietly, without even a rumor?
"Which family?" he asked hurriedly. As a godfather, he was also very concerned about his adopted daughter's lifelong affairs. Although he could not make the decision, he could at least help to have an eye on it.

Shi Liu smiled and said, "It's from the Fan family in Shanghe Village across from us. He is a student and is going to take the entrance examination in August this year. He said his adoptive father doesn't know, but he said his uncle is the Mr. Fan, so his adoptive father should know roughly."

"It's the Fan family across the street?"

Ding Fuguang had not expected this. He really didn't know this young man, but the whole Luoshui City knew about Mr. Fan. After all, Mr. Fan was the county magistrate of a county under the jurisdiction of Changzhou next door. It was said that his evaluation was very good, so he might be promoted to county magistrate!

Poetry and books are passed down from generation to generation. Not bad, not bad.

“It’s great to be so close!”

Ding Fuguang nodded, "Godfather, congratulations to you first!"

As he spoke, he was also thinking that the dowry he had prepared for Shi Liu should be sorted out and given to Shi Liu.
