When Rong Yan and Ning Ansheng walked over from the academy, they saw the little girl writing with her eyes lowered. Ning Anhui was frowning as he held up the account book. Xiaoxiao sighed and took out a new book to draw a few lines on it. “Second Brother, write like this.”

Ning Anhui tried it a few times and instantly beamed. “This is a good idea, this is a good idea! Sister, where did you learn it from?”

Xiaoxiao looked kind. “I learned it from reading.

Ning Anhui slowly raised his head to look at her, then slowly lowered his head to look at the account book.

“Really? The books teach this?”

Ning Ansheng stared at his brother’s face and saw his sister winking at him.

Hence, he went forward calmly and said, “Yes, I’ll teach you.

Rong Yan didn’t get too close to Xiaoxiao in front of Xiaoxiao’s parents and brothers. He just stood behind her and asked her softly, “Are you tired?

“Are you happy?”

“Have you eaten?”

“You’re wearing so little. Are you cold?”

“Are your hands sore? I’ll get Yun San to send you some medicinal wine later.”

… Yes, that was all he asked.

After returning home, although all the members of the Ning Family who were involved in opening the shop felt their backs ache, they were still very happy on the surface. On the first day of opening the shop, “So It’s You” sold more than 500 cups of milk tea and earned a net profit of more than 5,000 points and nearly two taels of silver. This income was already a pleasant surprise to everyone, but they did not expect to earn almost one tael of silver from selling biscuits and Taro Cake Roll. One had to know that they were not confident when the new shop opened, so they did not ask Xiaoxiao to make more snacks. There were only 20 servings in total, but not only did they sell them all, but they also earned nearly one tael of silver?

With this calculation, they earned three taels a day? One day! Wouldn’t that be 80 to 90 taels a month? How much would it be in a year? Ning Anhui counted with his fingers. When he was done, he was shocked. His hand that was holding his elder brother’s trembled.

“Brother, is our family going to become a rich family with an income of more than 1,000 taels in a year?”

Ning Ansheng was much calmer than him. “Do you think this money doesn’t need to be spent? Don’t you need to spend money on milk, flour, and tea leaves? Moreover, today is the first day after all. There are all kinds of promotional activities that attracted so many customers. Can it be the same every day in the future?”

Ning Anhui calmed down a little, but it was just a little. He knew that he definitely wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight. He didn’t care about what Big Brother said about the expenses and activities. He grinned and went to wash up. Before he left, he said, “Fortunately, we no longer have anything to do with the old residence. Otherwise, they would definitely be jealous and pester us.

Ning Ansheng paused and retracted his gaze after taking a glance at his sister. Why did he think that his sister specially waited for the matter at the old residence to be resolved before she started to show her skills? He must be thinking too much. No matter how smart his sister was, it was impossible for her to be so meticulous.

Besides, could it be that his sister had this ability early on, but deliberately hid it in order not to be pestered? One had to know that she was worlds apart from before she was seriously ill. With his sister’s age, how could she be so cautious that she was like a different person from before…

Noticing his gaze, Xiaoxiao jumped over. “Big Brother, why are you looking at me like that?”

Ning Ansheng raised his hand and rubbed her head. “It’s nothing. I just think that my sister is really amazing.”

Xiaoxiao was smug. “Big Brother should have said this in front of Second Brother just now so that he would be envious!

She said, “Brother, I will definitely let our entire family live a good life! Ning Ansheng put down his doubts and nodded. “Alright, Brother will work hard with you.”

When he said that he would work hard, he was really working hard. The candlelight lit up late into the night these few nights.

He knew very well that his foundation was far inferior to others. There were no shortcuts to studying. If he wanted to catch up, he had to persevere with one principle—there was a path for hard work on the mountain of books. The sea of learning was endless. Hard work could make up for his shortcomings. If he wanted to succeed, he had to work harder than the others.

A few days later, the shop and school’s matter became a daily routine. Xiaoxiao, Big Brother, and Second Brother left home early and returned late. Ning Fengnian and his wife looked after the land, fed the chickens, and washed the clothes. At the same time, they visited Fortune Village and put the plan of building a house on the agenda.

Knowing that the eldest branch was thriving, most of the villagers were sincerely happy for them, especially since the eldest branch did not forget the villagers even when they became rich. According to Xiaoxiao’s suggestion, Ning Fengnian was asking the villagers to help make bamboo tubes.

In Xiaoxiao’s words, bamboo tubes were not worth much, but if Ning Fengnian were to do it alone, it would be time-consuming and laborious. The gains would not make up for the losses. If he let the villagers process it for him at a small price, not only could he save time to do something else, but he could also give the villagers a chance to earn some pocket money. Why not?

After Ning Anhui became the shopkeeper, he saw things from a different perspective. Before Xiaoxiao started to fool him, he had already sensibly helped to persuade their father. “Father, think about it. How many bamboo tubes can you make alone in a day? How many cups of milk tea can I sell with just the bamboo tubes you make? But if the villagers help make them, can I sell as many as I want?”

Ning Fengnian pondered for a moment. That seemed to make sense. Moreover, when he told the village chief, the village chief was also beaming with joy. Then, the villagers who came to look for him to confirm their jobs came one after another—why not add to the family’s income?

He felt that he had done a good deed and could not help but be filled with joy. However, contrary to him, the people in the old residence had been gloomy these few days.

No matter how good the eldest branch’s life was or how much money they earned, no matter how envious they were, they did not have the guts to approach them. The county magistrate’s paddle punishment was not a joke. Didn’t they see that Second Uncle Ning was still locked up inside?

Originally, after the eldest branch was kicked out, the family was short of one laborer. Now that Second Uncle Ning was not around, the old couple could not expect the “scholar” Third Brother Ning to help them with their work. They could not persuade Little Aunt Ning, who had already completely treated herself as a “lady from a wealthy family”, to do it either.

The two of them were already so old. Not to mention managing the fields, they were also very busy with the matters at home. After a few days, their backs ached and their legs cramped. They cried out all day.

Second Aunt Ning specially chose such times to either munch on melon seeds or eat with a bowl of food at the door.

Since she had already fallen out with her in-laws, she could not be bothered to pretend to be a filial daughter-in-law. Now that she was alone, no one cared how she used the money. After suffering enough from being controlled by her mother-in-law, she could finally let herself go and spend the money however she wanted.

However, there was also a problem. She had already spent a lot of money on medicine. With her frequent visits, she quickly ran out of money. She thought that this wouldn’t do. It was better to have a man at home, so she tried to run to the government office again.

She was shocked by her own stunt.. They actually let her in this time?
