Chapter 130 - 130 Mixed Food Shop

130 Mixed Food Shop

Old Madam Su said smilingly, “It is indeed delicious. I didn’t realize you could prepare eggs in such a way.”

“These eggs will sell well, and we also have preserved eggs with a unique flavor.” Su Fengchen heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his parents’ approval.

He also thought of earning more money to improve his family’s living conditions so his parents could enjoy the remainder of their lives together. He would finally consider himself a dutiful son after that.

Previously, Su Fengchen’s parents had to work hard because they were worried about their son’s hand injury. Su Fengchen felt depressed and blamed himself for that. He felt a massive weight on his shoulders.

However, he was more relaxed now and knew it was all thanks to his niece. The family ate delicious food and thought of ways to earn a living. Their faces were brimming with brilliant smiles.

…

After dinner, Su Binglan packed a big basket of salted duck eggs and preserved eggs and prepared to return home. The basket was full and looked quite heavy, so Luo Jin’an reached out to grab it, saying, “Let me take that.”

Su Binglan refused her husband’s offer because the weight was nothing to her. “It’s not that heavy. I can handle it.” She did not want Luo Jin’an to do any heavy lifting and tire himself out.

Luo Jin’an looked at Su Binglan calmly and noticed the stubbornness in her eyes. “Let me carry it. Please be more obedient.”

Su Binglan met her husband’s gaze and could not help but do as he said. She simply handed the basket to him.

Luo Jin’an took it and walked away. Only then did Su Binglan return to her senses. She wondered what happened to her just now and if Luo Jin’an had bewitched her. She thought it was bizarre that someone could enchant her.

Still, the look in Luo Jin’an’s eyes just now differed from his typical gaze. Su Binglan ran up to look into Luo Jin’an’s eyes, only to find nothing out of the ordinary about them.

‘Am I hallucinating?’

When Su Binglan reached home, she did not stay idle. She spoke to her parents, brother, and sister-in-law about her shop’s grand opening that would happen on the following day.

She gave them plenty of details, and if her family had any questions, she would answer them. The Su family discussed everything together and was busy until midnight before they finally fell asleep.

The following day before dawn, the family woke up early, packed their things, and transported them to the shop. They had hired an oxcart from the village so it would be easier to bring their necessities to town.

Su Binglan wanted to purchase an ox, but ten silver taels for one was quite expensive. Living that lifestyle cost money and it was not like the Su family could buy whatever they wanted.

Su Binglan had spent most of her money on renovating her shop, so it was better to save as much as possible for the time being. She could always buy an ox whenever she had enough money on hand.

…

The family arrived at the town by oxcart before dawn. The grand opening would be pretty busy, so Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai followed the rest of the Su family to town.

Su Binglan took advantage of the fact it was still early and started arranging her desserts. She had already prepared the pricetags, so all she needed to do was place them and the desserts onto various wooden plates.

The dessert and tofu shops were side-by-side. It was initially a large building, but Su Binglan split them into two sides.

The tofu shop was spotless, and wooden plates were on the front counter. Tofu skins, dried tofu, candied chestnuts, and fries were on them. Even the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs were on different plates.

That side of the shop looked just like a grocery store. The tofu store was a bit big, and Su Wenzhe did not think he would need such a big store, but Su Binglan had other plans.

She thought she could also make the tofu section into a stewed meat store. She would make stewed meat dishes and snacks in the future and sell them in that part of the shop.

After dawn, a few townsfolk approached the shop door, curious to see the inside.
