Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Wenxiu was proud to have a sister like Su Binglan. So many people had gathered on both sides of the street to cheer his sister on. Everyone showed sincere gratitude toward Su Binglan.

The people of Yang County, especially those from the village, felt it the most. In a month, they would be willing to buy meat and better food. They no longer lived in fear and could shop in town.

Moreover, Su Wenxiu had cured those with illnesses and even broken limbs before leaving the county. Su Binglan had even made them waterwheels and improved their farming tools.

The villagers would no longer have to pull their plows by hand when they cultivated their land. Su Binglan had given everyone proper farming tools,

which would save them time and effort.

She also taught them how to cultivate tomatoes and grow crops with high yields. She even taught everyone how to cultivate medicinal herbs better so that the herbs would be hardier.

Su Binglan taught the villagers many things, including using chains to pick herbs on the mountain to ensure their safety. She was patient and taught people how to make the most common vegetables taste delicious.

The commoners could not count how much the princess had done for them. They came to see her off willingly, and no one was around to stop them. The villagers and townsfolk loved the princess from the bottom of their hearts.

Everyone remembered Su Binglan telling them to live well and prosper. Meanwhile, Doctor Yang and her family decided to stay in Yang County for some time instead of following Su Binglan back to Su Teng Village.

Doctor Yang felt extremely emotional as she watched the villagers show their gratitude toward Su Binglan. After all, the princess had helped and saved so many people as she did in Teng County.

Everyone from Su Teng Village and Tenghe Town was also grateful to Su Binglan. People kept calling her a guardian angel who had descended from heaven to help the people.

It took some time for Su Wenxiu and Su Binglan to regain their senses as they left Yang County. Su Wenxiu was a little worried about his sister, asking, “Are you okay?”

Su Binglan shook her head. “I’m okay, Wenxiu. I just feel warm inside.”

“The villagers’ kind gestures touched me, too. Although most of them were grateful to you, I feel just as emotional as you.” Su Wenxiu’s heart pounded as he spoke.

Su Binglan smiled. “l want to do more meaningful things for the people.” If she were just a villager, she might not have done so much. However, she was not an ordinary person. Instead, she was also Princess Lan Ruobing. Su Binglan knew she and Lan Ruozhu were responsible for the people.

Su Wenxiu said thoughtfully, “Sister, 1 want to do my best, too, I plan to study more diligently and write books to teach my students as much as possible. I want them to become benevolent doctors.’

“All right, I’ll work hard with you, Wenxiu.”

The Su siblings found many parcel stations in various places on the way back to Teng County. “Sister, there are courier stations all over the country.”

Su Binglan smiled. “Now it’ll be easier for people to send things like letters to their loved ones.’

Those working as couriers were under Lan Ruozhu. One of the requirements to be a courier was to be able to read and write. That way, they could do those

things for the commoners for free.

Su Binglan could also start writing newspapers with the courier stations as guides. However, she would have to visit Lan Ruozhu in the prefecture and tell him about it first. Before that, she planned to visit the capital.

Su Wenxiu said, “l believe Tenghe Town also has a courier station.”

“Not just the town, Wenxiu. Even Su Teng Village should have one.” When Su Binglan previously discussed the courier stations with Lan Ruozhu, she had mentioned starting in Su Teng Village first.

Lan Ruozhu agreed as it would be easier for Su Binglan to deliver letters to him. Su Binglan liked to be pampered by her brother.

As she and Su Wenxiu traveled home, the two could feel the weather getting warmer. The spring breeze brushed past their faces and caused the willows to sway. Their moods improved as they felt the spring warmth.

It was different from when they visited Yang County. It was just the beginning of spring when the Su siblings set off for the county.

A few days later, Su Bingkan and Su Wenxiu finally arrived in Tenghe Town. As expected, they saw a courier station there. Su Binglan also realized the docks in town had become regulated. Professionals would come and check the docks regularly, too.

Su Binglan raised her brow, thinking, ‘It seems Ruozhu listened when I told him to use boats to transport items.’

Perhaps Lan Ruozhu was already in complete control of the river shipment. With the strength of the caravans on land and river shipment, Lan Ruozhu had considerable force. Even if he were to raise a rebellion, no one could compete with him.

When Su Binglan and Su Wenxiu arrived at Tenghe Town, the two dismounted the carriage and walked. Su Wenxiu sighed, saying, “It’s still livelier here than any other town in Dingzhou.”

The streets were full of people, bustling with life. Su Wenxiu liked such liveliness. As he walked with his sister, they could hear the townsfolk chatting and laughing.

One of the townsfolk said, “There’s a play at the Grand Theater tonight, dear. I got two front-row tickets. Let’s go watch it together.”

“Really, hubby?”

“Yeah, of course!”

“You’re amazing, dear. I know how hard it is to get even one of these tickets. How’d you get two?”

“One of my sisters-in-law is working at the Grand Theater. She saved these two tickets for us.’

“Still, the tickets instantly sell out as soon as they announce a play. Even the last-row tickets are gone.”

“That’s because the two new plays are exceptional, dear. People can’t stop talking about them. Also, it’s different when you watch the plays inside the Grand Theater compared to outside, like last time.

“Everyone can see the stage better, even from the back. There are also lighting effects inside. I don’t know how, but I heard the sound inside is much better, too.”

“Oh, someone told me about that! One of our neighbors went to watch a play and came home to describe everything to us. She said it was magnificent, and she almost cried..
