Yang Xiaoxun held her grandmother’s hand and said, “Grandma, I don’t want you to work so hard.”

Old Madam Yang patted her granddaughter’s hand. “l won’t work too hard, dear. I’m happy now that our lives are much better than before. Since you’ve left your past behind, I’m glad you’re doing something you’re passionate about.

“Although I’m busy now, I’m also happy. Instead of feeling tired, I feel at ease. Also, I can’t bear to stay put if you don’t let me work. When you have a kid, I’ll care for the child for you.”

Yang Xiaoxun raised her brows when she heard that. After everything she had experienced with Han Mobei, she became cold and afraid. She only wanted to live a good life with her grandmother.

Yang Xiaoxun felt reborn after Su Binglan healed her face and gave her purpose. Moreover, she saw how simple and honest the Su Teng villagers were.

They lived harmoniously, and the men treated the women well. Yang Xiaoxun felt inspired and wanted to find someone to share a simple life with and have children.

She understood her grandmother’s concerns and said, “1 know, Grandma. I’ll let you have some free time soon.”

“All right, dear.” Old Madam Yang sighed in relief when she heard her granddaughter’s words.

The older woman thought the environment in Su Teng Village was so excellent that it could heal people. That was because of the positive energy, making people willing to believe in life and beauty.

Lin Yueqin and Liu Yuechan stayed in the dormitory on the second floor. They had committed a crime and sold off to strangers. The two sisters were afraid and wanted to kill themselves, but Su Binglan saved them.

The two now lived together without fear. Su Binglan had taught them many things, and they were grateful to her.

“Yueqin, we’re performing tomorrow afternoon,” Lin Yuechan said, “I’m nervous and afraid that I’ll get my lines wrong.”

“Don’t be nervous,” Lin Yuequn comforted her sister, “Miss Su told us to be ourselves. Even if we say the Wrong lines, it’ll be okay.”

“Still, I want to perform well for Miss Su because she has been so good to us. I remember how afraid I was when our family got into trouble.”

The Lin sisters were close to dying then, but their mother told them to survive together. The sisters wondered if they could have survived without Su Binglan.

Lin Yueqin understood her sister’s feelings and also wanted to perform well. “Let’s rehearse and familiarize ourselves with our lines.”

The two sisters practiced their parts in the dormitory. Lin Yuequn played a character named Liu Wenju, while Lin Yuechan played a servant girl named

Chun Hong.

Many people slept late that night. However, Su Teng Village was bustling with activity before dawn. The Su Teng Village streets were full of stalls, and the market was bigger than ever. It exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Even people from the neighboring county came to set up stalls at Su Teng Market. However, they could not find a spot to sell their goods.

“Oh, no. It looks like there’s no space for us.”

“Are you from another village?”

“No, we’re from the neighboring county. We wanted to set up a stall here to watch the play in the afternoon.”

Su Teng Village was far for these visitors, and they had driven their oxcarts here to advertise their goods. However, they had arrived too late and had nowhere to set up their stalls.

“Gosh, we came to sell our goods here because there’s usually space for us.

Even though we came as early as possible, there’s no space for us.”

“Hmm, I wonder if we can set up stalls around the stage.”

“That should be okay. Hurry, let’s set up our stalls there. When more people realize it, they will want to set up there too.”

Many people came to set up their stalls that morning, and many others arrived to shop. Most people discussed the play that would occur in the afternoon as they were curious and wanted to find out more about it.

Everyone wondered what the play would be about, but none could guess, no matter how much they discussed. Still, they were excited to watch the play.

Meanwhile, quick-witted people set up their stalls not far from the stage. They planned to watch the play in the afternoon while running their businesses.

Some villagers even brought snacks to the play for their children to enjoy. Since that was the case, they could save money instead of buying food from the stalls. However, not everyone considered that.

When the other adults saw people bringing snacks for their children, they went to the surrounding stalls to buy some. Nonetheless, business boomed in the afternoon.

Of course, Old Madam Yang had a perfect seat her granddaughter had reserved after asking for Su Binglan’s permission. Still, Old Madam Yang brought her small cart and a seat to make it convenient for watching the play.

That morning, Su Binglan accompanied her family to the market and bought some firecrackers for the New Year. She also bought red paper to write the door couplets.

As the family strolled around, Su Binglan was shocked when she noticed the market scale had doubled. The market expanded to the embroidery shop, with many stalls beside the stage.

Su Binglan heard everyone discussing the play as she strolled through the market. She knew her play would do well but never expected it to be this popular.

She felt pressured and wanted everyone to perform well later. After strolling for a while, Su Binglan went home to pack the makeup and costumes she had prepared before carrying them to the staff dormitory.

She had also prepared a larger room and made it into a dressing room for her actors. The changing area had two rooms, one for the women and one for the men.

Since she had more than ten actors, she started getting everyone ready in the morning. She had also designed the costumes herself and hired someone to make them.

“Today’s a big day for us. Be careful when you eat, or you’ll ruin your makeup. Before you go on stage, I will touch up everyone’s makeup, okay?”

Everyone looked around and could barely recognize each other.

Lin Yuechan told her sister, “Yueqin, you look lovely.”

Lin Yueqin was stunned. Although she and her sister had enjoyed wearing makeup, they never looked this good. They wondered what Su Binglan had used because their faces felt smoother than ever..
