After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife

Chapter 191

Not far away, Luo Juan and Lady Qian, who witnessed this scene, both broke into smiles.

Although it was a bit hard to accept that their precious daughter, whom they had just found, was already stolen away before they could fully cherish her, they couldn't deny that Gu Jinchen was indeed a trustworthy person.

From their daily interactions, it was evident that Gu Jinchen truly treasured their daughter.

Moreover, they were grateful to Gu Jinchen. Luo Ge had told them about her arrival here. If she hadn't met Gu Jinchen then, they dared not imagine what might have happened to Luo Ge, who was exhausted from the long journey and completely defenseless.

For this, they were very thankful to Gu Jinchen.

Based on their interactions, they found no fault with this son-in-law.

But... this didn't prevent them from feeling sour!

Although they had grown much closer to Luo Ge during this time, it still couldn't compare to her relationship with Gu Jinchen.

Seeing their daughter/sister's eyes light up with joy and dependence whenever she was with Gu Jinchen made them truly envious!

..... Everyone had a great time playing in the orchard, picking fruits to their heart's content, but without waste.

Li Shopkeeper and his team worked efficiently, harvesting a batch in no time. Luo Ge also gave him the recipe for the peach wine.

"This is last month's dividend. The boss asked me to deliver it to you. I couldn't find the chance earlier, so please take it now," Li Shopkeeper said.

"The wine we sold previously has been extremely popular in the capital, with the highest price reaching over a thousand taels per jar. We've truly made a fortune this time."

The dividend Li Shopkeeper brought for Luo Ge was substantial, including pastries, dried fruits, and fruit wines.

This time, the dividend in silver notes amounted to over a million taels, requiring a box to contain it.

As it wasn't good to flaunt too much wealth, Li Shopkeeper chose this private moment to give Luo Ge the recipe and the dividends.

"The boss is now trying to find ways to promote it abroad. The future dividends will surely be even more!" Li Shopkeeper said with a smile, his eyes full of joy.

Because he had helped connect Luo Ge and her family with Jiang Feng, his position in Fuxin had been steadily rising, along with his wages.

Moreover, he could also receive some profits from the products they were now cooperating on with Luo Ge and her family.

So seeing the current profitable situation, he was genuinely happy.

Luo Ge was quite pleasantly surprised to see the suddenly multiplied dividends, but it was also within her expectations.

From the previous dried fruits and such, she could already see Jiang Feng's capabilities.

Now that they could ride the wave of success, it wasn't surprising that these fruit wines were making a big profit.

However, she still truly admired Jiang Feng.

She was also glad that she hadn't chosen the wrong person to cooperate with initially.

"That's excellent. Li, when you go back, please remember to send our regards to Boss Jiang. If there's anything unsuitable about the peach wine, feel free to come and ask me."

"Ah, certainly," Li Shopkeeper agreed with a smile. Eager to return with the goods and prepare for brewing new fruit wine, he didn't linger.

After seeing Li Shopkeeper out of the room, Luo Ge put all the silver notes into her space.

Gu Jinchen, pushing a few small babies, looked at her expectantly: "Wife...."

"What is it?"

"Will you look down on me...." His wife was earning more and more money, and he couldn't compare anymore.

He thought silently to himself that perhaps he should also find more ways to invest and create more money-making ventures.

Yes, that seemed feasible.

As he was thinking about this, he lowered his eyes, his exterior appearance seeming somewhat downcast, pitifully endearing.

"Of course not!" Hearing his words, Luo Ge was stunned for a moment, then understanding his meaning, she firmly shook her head.

She stepped forward, grasping his large hand, and stood on tiptoe to lightly kiss his thin lips.

"You've forgotten, what we've harvested now is the result of our joint efforts as husband and wife. It's not just me alone, but the outcome of our combined efforts."

"If it weren't for the initial capital you provided, how could we have connected with Li Shopkeeper and the others? If you hadn't supported me, even with all my skills, I wouldn't have been able to develop them."

In this era full of constraints for women, if the man of the house didn't support her, no amount of effort would matter.

But for her every move, he had never been absent, always standing behind her, supporting her unconditionally.

His unconditional support was truly important to her.

"And the first time we made money with dried plums, it was you who took me to find the plums, and you who supported buying the materials."

"It's because of your unconditional support that I dare to try boldly, and that's why we can have such harvests now."

Looking at the man before her, Luo Ge spoke seriously, every word coming from her heart.

Her eyes gazed at him intently, as if afraid he might overthink.

Gu Jinchen remained silent for a long time after hearing her words. After a while, he turned to meet her gaze and lowered his head to kiss her forehead.

"Alright."

Although he agreed, only he knew whether he had truly taken it to heart.

"One wasn't enough just now, let's make up for it more when we return tonight."

Seeing Luo Ge's concerned expression, he smiled and changed the subject, his gaze suggestively looking at her.

They still had to meet her father and the others later, so they couldn't be too unrestrained now.

Hearing his words, Luo Ge's face predictably turned red.

"You're incorrigible."

Hearing her reproach, Gu Jinchen smiled with delight.

His little wife truly had an easily embarrassed constitution, unable to withstand even a bit of teasing, always blushing furiously.

He loved it so much.

........ Knowing that Luo Ge and Li Shopkeeper were discussing business matters, the Luo family and the Princess Consort didn't disturb them.

Instead, they took another stroll around the estate and sampled the fruits they had picked themselves.

It had to be said, the fruits picked by one's own hands were indeed more fragrant.

"Little Aunt!"

Seeing Luo Ge and the others approach, Second Baby Yun Yi's eyes lit up, and he quickly ran over to offer Luo Ge the best fruit he had picked.

"Little Aunt, I picked this. Please try it, it's very sweet and crisp."

"Little Aunt, try the mango I picked," Older Baby Yun Mu also eagerly chimed in.

Gu Jinchen: "....." These ungrateful little brats, every time he, their little uncle, was left last with no one to dote on him.

Lady Qian and Luo Juan stood behind them holding freshly cut fruit platters, intending to give them to their daughter/sister: "......."

They never expected that, besides Gu Jinchen, these two little ones would also be competing for their daughter/sister's attention.

Treating everyone equally, without favoritism.

Luo Ge smiled and accepted the gifts from both little ones, habitually ruffling their hair: "Thank you, Yun Mu and Yun Yi."

Seeing Luo Ge accept their offerings, the two little ones smiled happily and turned to gather more fruit.

"Uncle, here." Facing Gu Jinchen, the two kids only uttered these three short words.

"........" Though somewhat helpless, he accepted everything they gave him.

As for the portion they intended for the babies, Luo Ge didn't accept it.

"Your little brothers and sisters are still too young to eat these now. How about we pick some for them to share later when they're older?"

The babies had just reached their hundredth day, only about three months old, and couldn't eat fruit yet.

They would have to wait until they were at least six months old before slowly trying new foods.

"Okay." Hearing this, the two little ones were a bit disappointed but didn't dwell on it.

Aunt had said that later, when their younger siblings were bigger, they could eat fruit. They could pick some for them then.

"Mm-hmm."
