The customers enjoyed eating spicy crab and crayfish, mainly when they ate with their friends or family members. Su Wenwu asked, “Sister, did you bring the ingredients for the spicy crab and crayfish?”

“Of course I did. Don’t worry. I’ll cook for Mother and Father when we get home.” Su Binglan had packed the necessary ingredients in her pocket dimension. That way, she could store a lot, and they would stay as fresh as possible.

The family would enjoy the food more if they sat and ate together. Su Binglan smiled when she thought about it. Even she missed being home. After all, she could feel physically and mentally relaxed in Su Teng Village. Perhaps her heart felt at ease because she was home with her parents.

Su Wenwu nodded smilingly. “You can bring a lot at once, right?”

He knew his sister had a strange power but did not question her about it. He only supported and trusted her in everything she did.

Su Binglan replied, “Yes, I did. We have enough to make two big pots of food.”

“The food always tastes better when you make it, Sister.” Although he had followed his sister’s steps in cooking the spicy crab and crayfish, he was still worried about making them himself.

He felt his cooking skills were not as good as his sister’s. He even wondered if it was just a psychological effect.

Everyone’s hearts were full of anticipation as they headed toward Su Teng Village. After a few days of traveling and reaching Teng County, the weather became colder.

Although it was a little hot in the afternoon, they could feel the cool autumn wind in the evening. Su Wenwu said, “I can feel that autumn is just around the corner. It’ll be nice to wear a thin shirt and enjoy the breeze.”

The people of this era did not wear short-sleeved clothes in the summer. Although they wore long-sleeved clothes, their summer clothes were thinner. Most villagers wore clothes made of thin linen.

When the carriage entered Tenghe Town, Su Wenwu eagerly opened the curtain to look outside. “I feel a strong sense of familiarity when I look at the streets of my hometown. I feel at home.”

Su Wenwu found it hard to describe, but he felt his entire demeanor and mind were different when he was home. He felt relaxed and at ease.

“The hotpot restaurants are still doing so well. I feel like there are more people in town now. It’s so lively out there. I see so many people wearing different clothes. They’re not from around here, are they?” Su Wenwu looked around curiously.

Even Ye Feiran thought things were different from when she first visited during winter.

Su Binglan explained with a smile, “There’s no longer internal strife of wars in the country now. Many people know about our village, so they visit to take a look around.

“Plus, we’ve rebuilt most of the roads with cement. It made it more convenient for people to travel here. It’s also easy to travel here by boat, not to mention horses and carriages.”

Su Wenwu nodded. “Most people who visited last time were foreign merchants. Now, it looks like many others have come for fun.”

Ye Feiran liked Teng County. “That makes it livelier here compared to other places. Even I couldn’t wait to look around when I first visited.”

Teng County has beautiful mountains and clear waters, creating a magnificent environment. Walking on the streets gave one an indescribable sense of relaxation.

Ye Feiran’s eyes sparkled as she looked around the streets of Tenghe Town. When the carriage reached the west side of town, there were too many people. Hence, the carriage slowed down.

Su Wenwu said, “Let’s go down and walk since we’re not far from home.”

It was already evening, and the sky was bright. However, there were many people on the streets. Su Wenwu got off the carriage and was shocked when he saw Su Teng Village’s development site.

“There are so many buildings here now! What a magnificent sight!”

Even Ye Feiran was excited. “Everything looks much more beautiful than I remember! These are the new ice cream and milk tea factories, right? Is that fragrance coming from the milk tea factory?”

Su Binglan nodded with a smile. “We’ll buy a few cups of milk tea when we pass by later. You guys can have a taste, too.”

Soon after, she went straight to the shop and bought a few cups of milk tea. Ye Feiran and Su Wenwu overheard many people discussing milk tea as they stood at the shop entrance.

“Fortunately, there are several milk tea shops here. Otherwise, we’d have to wait longer.”

“Yeah, now we no longer have to stand in line for so long. I usually don’t buy much, but the milk tea is so tasty. I can’t help but buy a cup occasionally.”

“I don’t know why, but I always feel relaxed after drinking milk tea.”

“Yeah, that’s the feeling I get, too! I always like drinking a cup of this when I’m off to work. Even my parents and grandparents like milk tea.”

Everyone chatted and laughed as they bought milk tea. Ye Feiran looked forward to drinking it even more after hearing the people’s conversations.

Meanwhile, Ji Zhengjing struggled to return to his senses as he looked around. He never knew there was such a bustling place in the country. He felt as if he saw a peaceful and prosperous world that differed from what he knew.

‘How can a village and town have so many things? People from all over the world have gathered here.’

He remembered how remote Teng County was in the past. He had placed the Black Shadow Pavilion token in Flower County because of how remote Dingzhou was last time. He never expected it to become so lively. Ji Zhengjing saw many factories and restaurants here that he had never heard of.

After buying several cups of milk tea, Su Binglan handed them to Ji Zhengjing, Luo Jin’an, Ye Feiran, and Su Wenwu. “Here, I bought a cup for everyone to try.”

Su Wenwu said, “I’ve never had milk tea before.”

He quickly inserted the straw into the cup and started drinking. Immediately after, he exclaimed, “Wow, this smells and tastes so good! What’s in it, Sister? It’s so soft and chewy.”

Su Binglan explained with a smile, “Those are pearls that you can eat. I bought Feiran a vanilla milk tea. It’s fragrant, isn’t it? Oh, I bought you a banana-flavored milk tea, Master Zhengjing.”

Ji Zhengjing nodded and said, “I can see that you’ve worked hard to buy such things.”

“That’s not it, Master Zhengjing. I own these businesses, so I didn’t have to pay for them. You can drink more if you like it.”

Ji Zhengjing almost choked on his milk tea. He was shocked that the milk tea shop belonged to Su Binglan.
