Jiang Yutao didn't expect that this girl would say anything when she was in a hurry, and he wished he could pounce on her and shut her up.

I initially thought it was a rabbit, but I was wrong. It bites people more fiercely than a vicious dog. I've been tricked!

Seeing his reputation ruined in front of his own brothers, Jiang Yutao straightened his back and prepared to attack Sun Miao'er.

Before he could even extend his hand, he was knocked to the ground with a single slap.

“Master…” Sun Miao’er stared blankly at the man in front of her, caught off guard.

With just a gust of wind from his palm, Jiang Yutao fell to the ground. His brothers helped him up, and he looked utterly disheveled.

Now that she had her master backing her up, Sun Miao'er sneered, "Jiang Yutao, my aunt has been married into the family for so many years, have you ever treated her well? Do you really want me to tell your brothers about your beastly behavior towards her?"

"You, a scholar, are actually a beast in human clothing behind the scenes. If this gets out, how can your Jiang family still stand in the sect?"

“If you don’t sign the divorce papers, I’ll find someone to spread the word about how you mistreated my aunt, and I’ll talk about it every day at the entrance of your village. Don’t you have any shame? Old Master Jiang is so old, doesn’t he care?”

Her sharp tongue overwhelmed Jiang Yutao, and the expressions of his relatives who had been helping him just moments before had changed.

"Fine!" Jiang Yutao gripped his sleeve, flung it away, and relented. "Fine, I'll sign, okay?"

"Sign it." Sun Miao'er raised an eyebrow, waiting for Jiang Yutao to sign before accepting the divorce papers.

Sun Miao'er returned to the shop and said, "Liu'er, give them away. Chase away all the cats and dogs that are getting in the way of business with a broom!"

Jiang Yutao glanced awkwardly into the shop and wisely ran away.

When Sun Caiping saw the divorce agreement signed by Jiang Yutao, she was overwhelmed with emotion and didn't know what to say. Her hands trembled as she gripped the divorce agreement, "Good, good, good!"

She said "good" three times in a row. Her life, which had been imprisoned for more than ten years, was finally over, and she had completely broken free from the shackles of the Jiang family.

Having settled Sun Caiping's matter was a good thing, and Sun Miao'er was thinking of closing early today. While collecting goods at the door, she heard the shop assistant from the grain and oil shop next door complaining incessantly.

"What bad luck! I still have to unload the goods so late. I won't be able to have a hot meal when I get home tonight!"

"That's right, the food gets cold quickly when it gets cold. The shopkeeper only gives out two dry steamed buns every day. Who are they trying to fool!"

Sun Miao'er kindly asked, "Have you two brothers not eaten yet?"

Upon seeing that it was Sun Miao'er, the two men smiled warmly and said, "Hey, our manager isn't as kind as Manager Sun. That kid Liu'er is drinking mutton soup inside today; he's having a really good time!"

Sun Miao'er remembered that there was still some mutton soup left over from lunch, so she asked Liu'er to get two bowls.

The two men were stunned when Sun Miao'er served them a bowl of fragrant mutton soup when they were starving.

"Don't just look, hurry up and eat!" Sun Miao'er said.

The two exchanged a glance and devoured the mutton soup in front of them in a flash.

"Do you often go hungry?" Sun Miao'er asked, seizing the opportunity.

One of them replied, "It was fine when the weather was warmer before. When we got home from work, our wives would have prepared dishes, and we could eat them even if they were cold. But with this weather lately, how can we eat cold dishes anymore!"

Sun Miao'er had observed that the waiters on this street usually had a very simple lunch, with the shopkeeper typically giving them two small pancakes or dry bread.

They were all out doing hard labor, and the guys didn't have much money. They couldn't afford to buy food and drink, so few of them could eat hot and delicious meals.

She wondered what if she could open another shop and start a fast food business?

It doesn't require much expense. Just make something hot for the guys to eat, and you can even make a little money yourself. Why not?

"Fast food?" Sun Caiping exclaimed in surprise upon hearing her niece's idea. "What is fast food?"

Sun Miao'er explained, "Fast food is about taking over a shop, making some simple food, and selling it to the workers in nearby shops."

Although Sun Caiping didn't know where her niece got these crazy ideas from, she always found them novel and unheard of.

“But what if no one buys it?” Sun Caiping couldn’t help but worry. “Miao’er, you’ve finally earned some money, why not save it for yourself?”

Sun Caiping's attitude towards Sun Miao'er's business dealings was surprisingly similar to that of Old Lady Sun; she was always hesitant and worried too much, and dared not take action.

"It's a small business anyway, so there's no harm in giving it a try. If we succeed, it will be a good thing for those guys who are always starving!"

Without hesitation, Sun Miao'er got up early the next day and went to the market to buy some assorted fish, minced meat, and fresh green leafy vegetables.

When the shop wasn't busy, she stewed a pot of mixed fish and cooked two side dishes.

The food is ready, but not having containers is not a solution, unlike in modern times where everything is disposable.

A package of lotus leaves in the corner caught her attention; it was the same package she had bought last time to make beggar's chicken.

Dried lotus leaves become soft and resilient immediately after being soaked in water.

Sun Miao'er stacked two lotus leaves together, put the food on them, covered them with a cotton cloth, and placed them in a wooden bucket. Because today was just an experiment, she only made fifty servings.

As lunchtime approached, Sun Miao'er sat down next to her shop and wrote several large characters with a brush: "Hot food, two coins a serving."

The workers initially just came over for the fun of it, taking a look, but none of them really wanted to try it.

Sun Miao'er quietly lifted a corner of the cotton quilt, and the aroma of food wafted out. The workers, who were already hungry and dizzy from eating dry rations every day, couldn't resist the aroma of the food.

"Give me one." The man stood in front of the stall. "Two coins a serving, and you can really get something to eat?"

He glanced at the wooden bucket with some skepticism, but everything was completely wrapped in lotus leaves, and he couldn't see the food at all.

Sun Miao'er smiled and took out the lotus leaf packet for him, "You'll know once you try it!"

The man opened the lotus leaf in front of Sun Miao'er. Unexpectedly, the two-coin meal included fish and meat. Although there wasn't much, it was enough to satisfy her craving.

The key is the taste of the food, which is incredibly delicious. After being used to eating dry food and biscuits, tasting the fragrant food is like being in paradise.

The aroma wafting everywhere, coupled with the rave reviews from those who had bought it, led many of the passersby to spend two coins to purchase a serving of lotus leaf-wrapped rice.

In just one hour, all fifty meals were snapped up, and some who arrived late had to leave disappointed.

It seems that fifty portions are not enough. We can make more tomorrow. Sun Miao'er put away the wooden bucket and was about to walk into the shop when she was suddenly blocked by a dark shadow.

"Manager Sun is truly a master of business; I, Ji, am ashamed to admit my inferiority."
