“We used to struggle for our lives, barely making ends meet, but now…” Qiao Changshun sighed as he spoke.

“That’s because you give everything you earn to the old courtyard.” Qiao Xiaomai didn’t sugarcoat her words, speaking very directly.

The current emperor is benevolent, the taxes are not heavy, and Anping Village is near Bailu Town where they can find odd jobs. Plus, the money Zhuang Luhe earns from preparing feasts for others and the thank-you gifts she receives are enough to ensure that this family of four does not starve.

Qiao Changshun appears docile and so stepped upon, hence why the family had to endure such a miserable life.

Her words being so straightforward, upon hearing them, the wrinkles on Qiao Changshun’s face deepened, and he felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.

His son and daughter both are obedient and sensible. From the moment Zhuang Luhe, his daughter-in-law, married him, she never lived a good day. Yet, over the years, she never complained. When he was bedridden, she took care of him as best she could. Even when they were so poor that they couldn’t afford to pay taxes, she was still buying him white flour and pork…

Rubbing his face, Qiao Changshun stood up. “I’m going to clean the chicken coop.”

Seeing him upset again, Qiao Xiaomai let out a sound of acknowledgement and put away the copper coins.

Being upset is good. It serves him right for making the original owner and lovely Dami suffer so much out of his foolish filial piety, tsk.

It’s mid-morning now. She called for Qiao Dami, preparing to take him up the mountain.

The baskets at home weren’t enough, so she planned to get some willow branches for Qiao Changshun to weave a few more.

On the way up the mountain, they would pass by the small river in the village. Qiao Dami wanted to eat Brewed Snail, so she brought along a broken pottery jar.

Just as the siblings were headed up the mountain, Yuan Ding brought tofu and tofu pudding to Extreme Flavor Residence in his carriage.

Shopkeeper He specially wrapped a few pieces of cloth around the two pottery jars containing the tofu pudding to keep it warm.

Seeing Yuan Ding come in, he immediately ordered two servants cleaning vegetables in the backyard to carry the jars into his room.

In his room, several small bowls filled with various seasonings were already set up.

Picking up a spoon, he scooped a full spoonful from one of the jars and began to eat with satisfaction after adding cane sugar to it.

The tofu pudding was still hot, its taste much better than the day before. The combination of the tofu flavor and sweetness made Shopkeeper He squint his eyes in contentment.

The cold jelly noodles he had before were extremely delicious in his eyes, the tofu was a bit inferior, but it was still tasty.

But the tofu pudding… two words: breathtaking.

So delicious!

Almost wolfing down a bowl, he took another, this time with scallion and Cornelian Sauce. The hot and spicy flavor, coupled with the smooth tofu pudding sliding down his throat without needing to chew – superb!

Awesome!

But thinking how a bowl of tofu pudding was going to cost ten coin, Shopkeeper He’s satisfaction immediately took a hit.

With a dampened mood, he ate another bowl noisily.

This time he added meat sauce, and the taste was also quite nice.

After eating three bowls in a row, his belly was full to bursting.

Wiping his mouth contentedly, he ordered the servants to take the jars and soak them in warm water.

In half an hour, Extreme Flavor Residence would start doing business. He planned to use the same strategy as the cold jelly noodles and provide a small portion for customers to taste first. However, this time, his target audience would be the rich.

Qiao Xiaomai sold it to him for ten coins a bowl. He had to sell it for at least twenty coins per bowl to soothe the pain in his heart..
