Chapter 49 Business Opens 2
Tong Yao bent down to pick up Niuniu and put her on the pushcart, then started helping He Fang push the cart, "Let’s go!"
"Little sister, I don’t need your help, I can push it myself." People were pretty honest in this era, they worked without trying to slack off. He Fang felt that since she was being paid, she should work.
Besides, Tong Yao, being so thin, didn’t seem strong. Her arm was also recovering from an injury. What if she got hurt?
The pushcart was not heavy. Seeing He Fang’s determination, Tong Yao didn’t insist on helping. The two quickly reached the school within a few minutes.
With He Fang’s assistance, Tong Yao unloaded everything from the cart and switched to a coal-ball to boil black tea. He Fang had nothing else to do at home, so she stayed with Niuniu to watch. If she found any way she could assist, she would lend a helping hand, and see how Tong Yao made this milk tea she spoke of.
School started at 7:40 and it was only 6:40 in the morning. The students hadn’t arrived yet, so Tong Yao wasn’t in a hurry. She leisurely made her tea, which left He Fang staring in amazement.
"Little sister, you really get more and more beautiful. Even when you work, it looks like a piece of artwork. It’s very poetic. Whoever marries you in the future, will truly be blessed for eight lifetimes, they’d probably wake up laughing in their sleep."
In the past, she thought the descriptions of a willow-like waist were all exaggerations. But ever since she met Tong Yao, she’d found that to be an understatement. Tong Yao’s waist was far more pleasing to the eye than a willow’s.
Describing Tong Yao as a fairy wouldn’t be overstating it. It reminded He Fang of an old saying, "There are girls as beautiful as jade in the books, how many times can such beauty be found in the world?"
Upon hearing this, Tong Yao immediately laughed, "Sister Fang, I’m already married."
