Since that was the case, Su Binglan thought about it and asked the Taos to make tea sets, bowls, etc. After all, they could earn a lot more money making such things.

However, the pottery workshop did not have enough workforce, so they hired more people to help. When everyone heard the pottery shop was hiring, they immediately applied for a job there.

The pottery workshop was no longer a workshop. Everyone knew it was a business under Su Binglan, like the tofu factory, embroidery shop, accessories shop, and winery.

The salary and bonus would undoubtedly be excellent, so everyone became excited about those things. They wanted more money during the New Year to buy more goods and better celebrate the festive occasion.

The pottery workshop was in Willow Village, and many villagers from there wanted to work at the workshop mainly because it was close to home and convenient to travel through and fro.

Although Su Teng Village was nearby, it was still a neighboring village, and the

Willow villagers lived a little further from the winery and embroidery workshop there.

Therefore, the workshop was their closest option. Some men in Willow Village who did not get hired at the winery could try again at the workshop. Others even asked Tao Zhenggang for information about the interview.

“Mr. Tao, will you be hiring people for your workshop?”

Tao Zhenggang was usually busy in the workshop during the day and would go home to rest in the afternoon. When he exited the workshop, he saw someone standing outside to ask for information.

Since they were from the same village, Tao Zhenggang could understand everyone’s anxiety. He explained, “Miss Su says we must hire more people after the workshop’s expansion.

“Since the construction team has just finished, we’ll hire people soon. My family and I are working for Miss Su, too, you know?”

The Taos sincerely worked for Su Binglan. After all, she had saved them. She trusted the Taos enough to continue working with them to make porcelain.

“If not for Miss Su’s guidance, Dayong wouldn’t have been able to make such an exquisite thing as porcelain.” Tao Zhenggang felt proud of his eldest son when ne said mar.

‘My youngest son even painted the flower patterns on the vases and jars. Miss Su says they look good, too. I never thought my sons were this talented in the past. I didn’t expect the student to surpass the master and manage to make pottery better than me.’

Tao Zhenggang smiled with that thought in mind.

“Mr. Tao, you’re being too humble,” Li Han said, “Although it’s Miss Su’s workshop, you still have the final say, especially with the bottles and jars your eldest son made. They’re gorgeous. Dayong is famous now.”

Then Miss Li came out and happened to hear this. She asked, “How did my eldest son become famous, Li Han? He only works inside the workshop all day.” Although she felt her children were her pride and joy, she wondered how Tao Dayong became famous.

“You guys still don’t know about it? Many people know about the exquisite bottles your son made,” Li Han answered, “Most foreign merchants are anxious to order these goods from Miss Su. They say those jars and bottles are worth plenty of money.”

When Miss Li heard this, she laughed. “Our Dayong is so hard working, but I didn’t expect him to be able to make such beautiful things.

“However, it was all thanks to Miss Su’s guidance. He wouldn’t have made such a thing if it weren’t for her methods.”

Although that was what Miss Li said, she still felt happy. As a mother, she was genuinely proud of her son’s abilities. Everyone looked down on Tao Dayong in the past because his ex-wife ran away. Many people gossiped about it behind his back.

During that time, the Taos felt they could no longer show their faces in the village. Tao Dayong constantly had his head lowered and looked depressed.

However, that was all in the past, and people discovered how capable Miss Li’s sons were. Many wanted to propose marriage to her eldest son now, but the Taos had to be more careful this time and choose a good girl from a good family.

The village matchmaker had sent over several girls’ information lately. Some were from surrounding villages, and others were from Su Teng Village and Teng He Town.

Li Han said, “Everyone says Dayong is brave and intelligent.”

Miss Li agreed, “Indeed, Dayong is very diligent, too.”

Everyone in Willow Village knew this, but his ex-wife took him for granted and did not take him seriously. Miss Li would get angry just thinking about it, but it was in the past, and her family was doing well now.

Miss Li told Tao Dayong about the girls during lunch. “Dayong, tell me which one you like so I can send someone to propose marriage.”

Tao Dayong lowered his head and said, “Mom, I just want to do my best to make porcelain.”

“You’re already nineteen years old. Look at our neighbors. They already have two children. You’re not anxious, but we, as your parents, are. We still want grandchildren, you know.

“Besides, we’re doing well now. You don’t have to worry about food and clothing. I think Shi Fang from Stone Village is a good girl. I’ve already asked around and heard she has a terrific personality and comes from a decent family. She’s also happily working at the embroidery shop.”

“Big Brother, don’t make Father and Mother worry,” Tao Eryong said.

Tao Dayong responded, “Okay, I’ll listen to Father and Mother.”

He had insisted on his previous marriage, and his parents agreed, but it failed. Hence, he knew it was only right to listen to his parents’ arrangements this time.

“Stone Village is right next to Su Teng Village. Since they’re nearby, going back and forth is convenient. Besides, your aunt grew up in Stone Village under the care of her neighbors, so they all know each other well. I’ll get her to gather more information for us.

“Your aunt says Shi Fang and her parents are good people. Shi Fang often cares for her younger brother and sister at home, so she’s kind-hearted.

“I also thought Li Mei from Su Teng Village suits you, but I heard someone recently engaged her already. That’s why you must hurry. Since we know Shi Fang is a good person, others do too.”

Other Willow Village and Su Teng Village girls were also willing to marry Tao

Dayong. However, after some consideration, Miss Li still felt Shi Fang from Stone Village was most suitable for her eldest son.

The girl had a good temperament; most said she had never gotten angry with anyone. She was also dutiful to her parents and cared for her younger siblings.

Miss Li knew such a person would also care for her eldest son. Shi Fang’s primary quality was being gentle, so Miss Li did not think she would abuse or leave her eldest son.

Some other girls’ family conditions were also better than Shi Fang’s, but Miss Li still felt that everything depended on one’s character. Moreover, she knew everything about Shi Fang, so she could rest assured that her son would not get left again.

Besides, Shi Fang had a job, so she did not care about material things and only cared for the people around her.

“Don’t worry. I’ve already said we’ll give more betrothal gifts if you get engaged. I’ll talk to the matchmaker if you’re willing. You can even meet Shi Fang first if you want.”

Tao Dayong looked at his parents’ excited expressions and nodded. After all, he had more responsibilities as the eldest son in the family.

After returning from the embroidery shop, Shi Fang hurried into the house to help her parents. She usually did not talk much, but she was diligent.

“You don’t have to trouble yourself, Shi Fang. Come, I have something to tell you,” Mrs. Shi said.

Shi Fang nodded. “Yes, Mother.”

“I told you about Tao Dayong from the Tao family in Willow Village, right? Do you remember him?”

Shi Fang blushed when she heard Tao Dayong’s name..
