Chapter 480: A Sweet Smile

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shi Fang was busy working when she thought about reheating the lunch her mother had brought for her. Although Stone Village was close to Su Teng Village, getting home took time.

Although Shi Fang had enough time to go back and forth during her afternoon break, she had grown accustomed to having lunch at her workplace to put in more work.

After all, Shi Fang would earn more the more she worked; the harder she worked, the more bonuses she would receive.

She felt more motivated after getting engaged to Tao Dayong, so she worked harder. If she earned more, she could treat him better. She could not help but smile sweetly whenever she thought of him.

Meanwhile, Yang Linling, who was on the same team as Shi Fang, looked at the young lady smilingly. She said, “Shi Fang, are you thinking about Dayong?”

Shi Fang blushed. “Nonsense, I’m thinking about how to knit these sweaters quicker.”

“You might be able to fool the others, Shi Fang, but you can never fool me. You were never like this before, but now, you just can’t help but smile.”

Shi Fang was stunned. “Really?”

She did not realize how much more she smiled these days. After all, before this, she only cared about making things for the embroidery shop.

“Yeah,” Yang Lingling said, “Your smile is so sweet, so I can tell it’s because of Dayong.”

The corners of Shi Fangs lips curled upward when she heard that. Indeed, she was happy whenever she thought of her fiance. That was because Tao Dayong was the one she had been thinking about since the first time she fell in love with him four years ago.

He was her hero, her “Big Brother” who had saved her. Now, she could be with him and was thrilled about it. In the past, she thought she might never find out who he was. She did not expect to find her savior and finally be with him.

“He’s perfect. He even saved me when I was a kid.”

“That means you two are fated to be together. Also, Dayong has been looking for someone like you these past few days. Everyone is envious of you two. Shi Fang, most of our colleagues have fancied Dayong. They always say he’s calm, handsome, and capable. However, he likes you among the rest.”

Shi Fang knew Tao Dayong became famous throughout the embroidery shop after making exquisite porcelain. Moreover, the pottery workshop hired more workers, and he was in charge of them.

Tao Dayong had become a master with a few apprentices, so everyone often talked about him. Shi Fang became nervous about meeting him, but after the two got engaged, she no longer worried about others fancying him.

“Yes, of course, he’s perfect. I think he’s also very considerate toward you, Shi

Fang.” Yang Lingling was genuinely happy for the young lady.

Since she and Shi Fang were on the same team, they constantly helped each other and made things together. Hence, the two had become sister-like.

Yang Lingling was from Yangshan Village. When she was younger, her parents arranged for her to get engaged to someone in Willow Village.

Yang Lingling thought she and Shi Fang could return to Willow Village together after work since Shi Fang got engaged.

Shi Fang went to reheat her food during her lunch break, but someone outside shouted, “Shi Fang, someone is here for you!’

Shi Fangs expression changed, and her eyes lit up. Then someone teased, “It must be Dayong who came looking for you. 1 wonder what delicious food he brought you this time.”

Tao Dayong often brought food to Shi Fang since the two got engaged. Shi Fang put down her things and ran to the door. As expected, she saw her fiance standing there.

She thought about how handsome he was, ‘He looks as good as he did four years ago.’

“Dayong!”

Tao Dayong could not help but chuckle when he saw Shi Fang dashing toward him. He hurriedly took a few steps forward, saying, “Slow down, or you might fall.”

He still treated Shi Fang like a child. His eyes exuded gentleness when he looked at her, and his expression gave Shi Fang a warm feeling inside. “I won’t fall.”

Tao Dayong looked at her and frowned. “Why aren’t you wearing the scarf I bought you? It’s cold now, and 1 don’t want you to get sick.”

It pained him to see Shi Fang wearing so little during winter. Shi Fang looked into his distressed eyes and smiled sweetly. “I’m inside the shop, so it’s not so cold. You should wear more clothes to keep yourself warm, too.”

She looked at her fiance’s clothes and felt he was wearing too little for such a cold day. However, Tao Dayong said, “l don’t feel too cold, and I’m used to wearing these. Don’t worry. My body still feels warm.”

His physique was excellent, so he would not catch a cold during winter, even when wearing thin clothes. His entire body would feel warm whenever he moved around. Also, he rarely got sick.

Shi Fang looked at Tao Dayong’s attractive figure with eager eyes and felt safe around him. She enjoyed that feeling.

Tao Dayong handed some things to his fiancee and said, “My mother made these pancakes and ribs. They’re still warm, so you can have them for lunch.”

He rushed over to deliver the goods to the winery because he wanted to see Fang Shi and deliver some food to her. He was worried that she would not have a good lunch.

“But I brought my own food,” Shi Fang said, “These things you gave me are too expensive, so you should eat them.”

She knew the Taos would not eat such delicious food on regular days and that they had made these for her. However, Tao Dayong said, “You’re working so hard here, so you must eat more nutritious food to nourish yourself.

“Don’t worry about how much these dishes cost. I can always make and sell more porcelain.”

He felt more motivated to earn as much as possible to treat his wife well. After being treated so poorly by Ma Lulu, he knew Fang Shi was better. Therefore, he wanted to treat her well.

“You can’t tire yourself out just for me,” Shi Fang said.

“I won’t. After all, I feel pretty happy making such good-looking porcelain.” Tao Dayong felt he had found life’s meaning, and making porcelain made him happy. He did not feel like it was a job as opposed to working at the docks. He felt accomplished doing what he loved, mainly because he could produce such elegant products.

After talking for a while, Tao Dayong prepared to leave and told his fiancee to eat quickly so the food would not get cold.

When Shi Fang returned to the shop, she picked up her chopsticks and was about to eat when everyone smelled the fragrance wafting from her food. They could not help but say, “Dayong is so good to you, Shi Fang.”

“Yeah, he brought you such delicious food. He even gave you chicken drumsticks the day before yesterday, right?”

Shi Fang smiled and thought she should treat her fiance, his parents, and his brother well. She also knew how to make delicious food and planned to make some for the family.

Su Binglan was busy teaching her female apprentices while also running her businesses. The pottery workshop had expanded and hired more than ten people during this period.

These workers learned to make pottery and porcelain from Tao Zhenggang. However, he did not teach them every detail, as knowledge like that should only belong to the Taos.

Therefore, the workers would only know certain parts of the family’s procedures..
