Chapter 291: Chapter 291: Going to the Dentist
"Dad, Brother An, let’s move these shelves first and tidy up the backyard. We’ll have Uncle Old Gen come over tomorrow to break through this wall and paint it with lime. After all, the shop was used by others before, and it’s better to add some newness when we move in."
Yang Dachuan said, "That’s easy. After cleaning up the room, I’ll go buy lime and some materials. Tomorrow when Uncle Old Gen comes, they can start working right away."
"That works."
With that, the group moved the shelves, tables, and chairs from the original shop to the backyard and took down the shop’s signboard.
Seeing the signboard of the former grocery store, Yang Chuxia couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional about how quickly they had left, even abandoning the signboard.
However, looking at the signboard, she suddenly realized that her own house didn’t have one. Although the County Magistrate said he would make a signboard for her, there was no confirmation, and even if there was, she didn’t know what the inscription would be, fearing that it couldn’t be used as a sign.
So, after tidying up the shop and courtyard, Yang Dachuan went to buy lime and other materials, while Yang Chuxia thought about ordering a signboard.
But halfway there, she suddenly stopped.
"Xiaxia, why are you stopping?"
"Brother An, I’m so foolish. Why do we need to have someone else make it?" Yang Chuxia smacked her head and said, "We can do it ourselves. Isn’t it a waste not to use your excellent handwriting? We can just buy some nice paper, and you can write on it. Then, we’ll have Uncle Dayong make a framing, and we’re done."
"I.. Are you sure?" Ye Zi’an was confident in his handwriting, but Xiaxia was going to run a business, and the signboard would be seen by many people. He didn’t want his shortcomings to affect her.
"Yes, yes, I trust you. I’ve seen your writing, and I’m sure it’s good enough." Yang Chuxia said, "You can write the shop’s name in cursive and two regular-script couplets below it. It’s perfect. Trust me, trust yourself. You can do it." Yang Chuxia’s eyes were burning with conviction, trust, encouragement, and recognition.
Seeing her faith in him, Ye Zi’an’s confidence, originally at 80%, rose to 100%. "Alright, I’ll give it a try and do my best not to embarrass you."
"I know your writing won’t embarrass either of us. I trust you." She continued, "Let’s move on to the dentistry."
Ye Zi’an saw her running quickly and reached out to grab her, "Don’t run so fast. If you get hit by someone on the crowded street, what will you do?"
Yang Chuxia looked at the passers-by and realized there were indeed many people. Yet, it was more likely that she would bump into someone than the other way around.
However, she understood that her Brother An was showing concern for her, so she decided to be more restrained. Moreover, Brother An had leg problems and couldn’t walk too fast. She had to take that into consideration as well.
So, she walked up and tugged at Ye Zi’an’s sleeve, "Alright, I’ll walk slower."
"Mm." Ye Zi’an nodded slightly as he replied.
As they chatted, they headed to the namesake dentistry of the government. When they reached the door, they saw someone sending a group of servants into the dentistry.
She glanced over and suddenly saw a familiar figure among the servants entering the dentistry.
She quickly pulled Ye Zi’an to enter, only to be blocked by two young servants at the door.
"What’s this all about?"
Seeing that Ye Zi’an and Yang Chuxia were both young, the servant thought they were playing around and never imagined that they were there to buy servants.
