Chapter 477: Reunited
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“You can decide, Mother,” s.h.i.+ Fang said softly. She had also said the same thing when her mother asked her for her opinion last time. She was just happy to do so.
Mrs. s.h.i.+ noticed her daughter’s blus.h.i.+ng face and said, “I know you’re willing, so Dayong’s mother suggested we arrange for you two to meet. I agreed with Mrs. Tao’s suggestion.
“Dayong’s aunt is Chun Liu, our neighbor next door. She’s just like Dayong’s mother and has a good temperament. I’ve seen Mrs. Tao visiting her sister before. Mrs. Tao is a warm-hearted and straightforward person.
“I also heard that Dayong is hardworking and honest. He knows how to dote on his partner. Since we know his aunt well, I can rest a.s.sured. I think you should like Dayong. He looks handsome, too.
“The Tao family manages a pottery workshop. Although it’s under Miss Su’s name, the Taos have their own skills. Dayong even developed a highly unique bottle and became famous. He seems like an up-and-coming young man who will be successful. You won’t live a hard life with them.
“Mrs. Tao said she would treat you well should you become her daughter-in-law. She also intended to find someone who was considerate and had a good personality, so she chose you.”
Mrs. s.h.i.+ was satisfied with Tao Dayong. She also knew many other families would have been happy if Miss Li chose their daughters as her eldest son’s wife. After all, the Tao family’s conditions were exceptional, and they worked alongside Su Binglan.
Moreover, Tao Dayong was handsome, hardworking, and knew how to dote on his partner. Logically speaking, Mrs. s.h.i.+ did not think Miss Li would have chosen her daughter. However, Miss Li thought s.h.i.+ Fang was a perfect match for her eldest son.
Mrs. s.h.i.+ was ecstatic when she heard the news.
“Dayong’s mother also said you can still visit us even after you marry him. She won’t hold any rules or restrictions on you for that. I think it’s primarily because Dayong’s aunt is our neighbor. Chun Liu knows you well and feels at ease because she watched you grow.”
s.h.i.+ Fang blushed as she smiled, saying, “Mother, I’ve met Dayong before. I think he’s good, too. When I went to town to see the lanterns a few years ago and got lost, I was so scared that I cried. Dayong saw me and helped me find you.
“I didn’t know who he was then, but when I started working at the embroidery shop, I saw him delivering goods to the winery after I finished work. I
recognized him and realized he was the boy who helped me.”
Mrs. s.h.i.+ recalled that day upon hearing her daughter’s story. She asked, “That was him?! It was already dark that day, and I didn’t even notice that he brought you to us.
“We were so focused on checking if you had gotten hurt that he was gone when we looked up again. Since that’s the case, then he saved you. So, if you marry Dayong, you must treat him well.”
s.h.i.+ Fang nodded thoughtfully. “I know, Mother. Most of the embroidery shop workers have mentioned him. They all speak highly of the beautiful wine jars and bottles he makes. They also agree on how capable he is. Many people like him.”
Although she said those things, she was also nervous about meeting Tao Dayong. She wondered if he still remembered her. After all, they first met when they were just kids.
She was only eleven then, and four years had pa.s.sed since their first encounter. s.h.i.+ Fang was fifteen now, and Tao Dayong was nineteen. Still, she did not expect their fates to intertwine again.
s.h.i.+ Fang was nervous yet excited, while her parents were thrilled.
The following morning, Mrs. s.h.i.+ brought her daughter to meet Tao Dayong and Miss Li at the matchmaker’s house.
When the two met again for the first time in four years, s.h.i.+ Fang’s face turned red while Tao Dayong looked at s.h.i.+ Fang, and his ears turned red with shyness. He thought she looked very young, but s.h.i.+ Fang was indeed gorgeous.
She had fair and delicate skin, just like her mother’s. She was born with it and could not get tanned. She also had stunning black hair and wore a pink dress, making her look even better and more lively.
She seemed gentle and quiet when she lowered her head. Miss Li was delighted when she saw the young lady.
‘This girl is gorgeous and doesn’t look like she comes from the countryside.’
Miss Li was satisfied with what she saw and smiled. Moreover, she noticed Tao Dayong’s ears turning red and knew he had a good impression of s.h.i.+ Fang.
‘Dayong even became shy after seeing her.’
Meanwhile, Mrs. s.h.i.+ also felt satisfied with Tao Dayong, and the matchmaker was quite happy to see the young man and young lady having a good impression of each other.
Then he called Miss Li and Mrs. s.h.i.+ to sit outside so the young couple could chat. However, Tao Dayong looked at s.h.i.+ Fang, and his mind was blank. He did not know what to say.
s.h.i.+ Fang became even more nervous, but after a while, Tao Dayong felt a sense of familiarity. It was as if he had seen s.h.i.+ Fang before. He did not overthink it and asked, “Miss s.h.i.+ Fang, have we met somewhere before?”
Su Fang looked up and replied, “I got separated from my parents during the Lantern Festival a few years ago and cried by the roadside. You were the one who returned me to my parents.”
“Big Brother” was how she addressed Tao Dayong back then, and he suddenly remembered it.
“That was you?” he asked.
s.h.i.+ Fang smiled lightly. “Yes, it was me. At that time, you didn’t even tell me your name before leaving. I couldn’t find you after that.”
She felt aggrieved when she said that. She fell in love for the first time and thought of him even at that age. However, she did not know who he was or how to find him.
She could only hide her thoughts and feelings in her heart. It was not until that fateful day she got off work at the embroidery shop that she saw him delivering goods to the winery.
Only then did she know who he was. Tao Dayong had already become famous and was one of Su Binglan’s favorite workers, so s.h.i.+ Fang dared not go up to him to reintroduce herself. She thought that perhaps he had already forgotten about her.
s.h.i.+ Fang did not expect Miss Li to like her, but she was ecstatic when she found out. After all, Tao Dayong was her hero. Still, she felt sorry for Tao Dayong after hearing about his past experiences. Hence, s.h.i.+ Fang wanted to treat Tao Dayong well.
However, she did not know his impression of her. She had even put on a new outfit today that her mother had brought her to get custom-made.
Typically, she would be unwilling to spend so much money to buy such good-looking clothes, but she wanted to dress up prettily when meeting Tao Dayong. She wanted him to know that the little girl he had saved had grown into a gorgeous young lady.
“You cried so sadly back then, and I immediately noticed you,” Tao Dayong said. It was a coincidence that he was in town that day to meet the little s.h.i.+ Fang.
‘She looked only eight to nine years old then, and only four years have pa.s.sed.
Since she’s fifteen now, she should’ve been eleven then.’
s.h.i.+ Fang was tiny before, but she grew up quickly later. She had eaten very little in the past, but since that fateful day, she had always made herself eat more.
She wanted to grow and find the person who had saved her, even though she thought she might never see him again. Now that they were in the same room, s.h.i.+ Fang was ecstatic.
She smiled, saying, “That’s why I must thank you. I didn’t get the chance to do that back then. When my parents and I turned to look for you, you were already gone.”
“I’m sorry,” Tao Dayong said apologetically, “I was in town for some business and was in a hurry to go home.”
He did not think of anything else but business at that time..
