Chapter 769: Dry Mouth (6)_1
"It’s true, the medicinal tea really did alleviate my migraine..." Yuan Mengzhu also nodded, "All those ladies you gave the tea to have been inquiring about it, but I didn’t agree to anything immediately, as I need your approval... Of course, we can’t just give away the medicinal tea for free..."
"No problem." Yang Ruxin nodded.
"By the way, Mengzhu, how is it going with the proposal to recognize a goddaughter? If you’re not keen, I can certainly bring it up," teased Cai Wenjuan, poking her sister-in-law, "I’ve actually been thinking about this for a while."
"I just wonder if I’m fortunate enough for that?" Initially, Yuan Meng Zhu hadn’t considered this, but now, with her sister-in-law’s suggestion, she was suddenly interested. "This girl has real talent, and just being known as Dao Xuzi’s apprentice is enough to attract countless suitors. If our family backs her, those with ulterior motives will have to think twice. This could be a way of returning the favor." She quickly agreed, but with great humility, "In my life, I’m only blessed with Zeze. If Ruxin would call me ’Godmother,’ then..." Then she turned to Xun Hui, "Sister Xun, would you be willing to part with her?"
Shen Jiashi was even more shocked. She felt restless, wanting to rush home to discuss the matter with Shen Wanyin, as it seemed like previous plans might have to change.
"I..." Xun Hui was even more at a loss. She felt her daughter was in luck—if she agreed, her daughter would become the goddaughter of the county magistrate’s family. But she knew she couldn’t make this decision herself and could only look toward Yang Ruxin.
Yang Ruxin’s brows furrowed slightly. She hadn’t expected the atmosphere to change so suddenly. Weren’t they here to celebrate the shop’s opening? How had the topic suddenly shifted to recognizing a godparent? Just then, she felt someone gently take her hand. She turned to look at Gu Qingheng and saw him nodding slightly.
Was this his way of suggesting that she should agree to recognize Yuan Mengzhu as a godmother?
