Su Binglan looked at Liu Yinyin, saying, “Yes, I have my plans. I’ll tell everyone when the time comes. After the Lantern Festival, I plan to rent the shops near the staff dormitories.

“I’ll put up a notice stating that I plan to rent those shops to people who cook delicacies. I’ll also have them sign a contract stating they can only sell cooked food.’

Su Wenzhe felt he could learn much from his sister. He thought opening a convenience store on the commercial street would make things convenient for people.

Since some embroidery shop workers had to go home and cook after work, they could buy things from the convenience store on the way home. However, a small store would not be sufficient if many people lived there.

Su Binglan wanted to open a massive supermarket, but it would take over a month to build. Therefore, she needed to carefully consider things before opening such a thing.

She looked at her brothers and Liu Yinyin, saying, “If you have any ideas and need a shop, you can use them. I’ve already reserved a few shops for you four “I’ve also reserved a few shops for Uncle Qiuhui and Cousin Mohen, including a house in the commercial area.’

Shen Qiuhui and Shen Mohen were stunned.

“U-Us too?!”

Although the Shens had many residences and shops in the capital, they were far away. Shen Quihui had considered buying a house in Su Teng Village after staying there for a few days, even if it was only a vacation home.

However, he did not expect Su Binglan to give him a house and shop for free. Shen Qiuhui was ecstatic while his son’s jaw dropped in shock.

Shen Mohen wished he could hug Su Binglan when he returned to his senses.

“Cousin Binglan, you’re too good to us!”

Everyone was excited after hearing Su Binglan’s words, including Lan Ruozhu.

He said, “You’re too kind, Sister.’

The family did not argue and accepted Su Binglan’s good intentions.

Meanwhile, Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin looked at each other with bright eyes.

They had hired people to run their shops in town, so the couple only needed to handle their monthly accounts. It was an excellent management method. They could make and sell other delicacies if they had another shop.

Although Liu Yinyin and Su Wenzhe owned successful businesses, they still wanted to work by Su Binglan’s side because they could learn much from her and improve.

The family finished rolling all the glutinous rice balls while they discussed these things. Before they knew it, the sky was already dark. The family made plenty of glutinous rice balls and could not wait to eat them.

However, they knew they could only eat the glutinous rice balls during the Lantern Festival tomorrow.

Shen Qiuhua asked, “So, what are we eating tonight, Binglan?”

After some thought, Su Binglan said, “We have some handmade noodles here, so let’s cook them.”

Su Fengmao was thrilled when he heard that. “Ah, I’ve been craving for noodles.’

“What flavor noodles do you want, Sister?” Su Wenwu happily asked.

The family knew the cooking methods for most noodles were similar. However, they wondered what flavor they wanted since Su Binglan had made several noodle dishes.

Su Binglan said, “Let’s make noodles with fish and sauerkraut. Big Brother went to the river two days ago and caught several fish. He left them outside to freeze. We can make sauerkraut and fish noodles tonight.”

The family was shocked because they had never tried sauerkraut fish noodles.

However, they had eaten pickled fish when Su Binglan made it once.

Su Fengmao and Shen Qihua recalled the pickled fish their daughter had made previously. It was different from the dishes they usually cooked. It was fresh and delicious, even after soaking it in soup and eating it with rice.

Still, they had never heard of sauerkraut fish noodles before, Since Su Binglan said she would cook, the family knew the dish would be delicious.

Lan Ruozhu had never eaten such a dish, let alone with noodles. Meanwhile, Shen Qiuhui and Shen Mohen’s stomachs growled when they thought about it. The two exchanged glances, wondering what pickled fish tasted like.

They were puzzled yet could not wait to try it. Shen Mohen regained his senses and said, “Cousin Binglan, I want to help you cook. Let me know if you need me to do anything.”

He wanted to learn more from Su Binglan, especially after staying with the family for so long. Su Wenzhe and the others also joined the fun and wanted to help.

Su Binglan was pleased when she saw how eager everyone was to help. At least the family did not want to avoid being in the kitchen. She nodded, “We’ll wash the fish and then slice it. Do you guys know how to do that?”

“Yes, but I can’t do it well,” Su Wenzhe said unwillingly. He feared not being able to control his strength while cutting the fish.

Shen Mohen was even less likely to do so. He did not even know how to start a fire when he first visited the family. Su Wenxiu and Su Wenwu shook their heads.

Suddenly, Luo Jin’an said, “I’ll do it.”

Su Binglan knew he had exceptional knife skills and felt comfortable leaving it to him. Luo Jin’an and Su Binglan worked together perfectly. Everyone watched on the sidelines and felt the couple’s harmony.

The two had a tacit understanding, even though they were busy with the things at hand. It was as if they were one. Of course, everyone was happy to see how close Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an were.

Nonetheless, Luo Jin’an’s knife skills were unparalleled, and he finished cutting the fish quickly. Soon after, Su Binglan put in the seasoning to marinate the fish and put it aside.

Afterward, she asked everyone to wash the sauerkraut. Su Wenzhe rushed over to wash them. Then, Su Binglan cut the sauerkraut into strips before slicing the onions, ginger, and dried chili..
