Anle hooked her index finger under her chin.

"Oh, I've already made a plan. We don't have many sweet potatoes at home, so I'll have to ask Dad to go buy some."

Then start with these simplest ones. I had my mom try making them before, and they tasted alright. We can make them and sell them.

However, we also need to make some presentable pastries; I plan to teach my mother-in-law how to make some special ones.

An Ning's eyes shone.

"Special pastries? What are they?"

Anle smiled mysteriously.

"You'll know once you make it."

An Ning's bright eyes were filled with suspicion.

"Little sister, when did you learn to make pastries?"

"Of course it's...the Celestial God Cult!"

"From the Celestial Gods? Could it be pastries eaten by the Celestial Gods?"

"Yes, Fourth Sister, you're so smart."

The next morning, Qiao Qiuniang prepared breakfast early, and Anle, still sleepy, was pulled out of bed by Anning.

"Hurry up, hurry up, little sister is so lazy these days, why is she always lying in bed?"

Anle yawned and glanced at her watch. It was only five o'clock. Why was she up so early? She had finally managed to adapt to life here and had time to sleep in, but she was woken up.

"Ah... I don't want to eat breakfast. Don't pull me. I want to sleep a little longer. Anyway, Dad isn't going to town today." Anle mumbled sleepily, pulling the blanket over her head to continue sleeping.

Anning groaned as she tried to pull the person out of bed.

"No, today is the day my aunt is going to discuss the engagement. My parents are going over there after dinner. I'm worried that they might suffer a loss over there. You have to go with them and keep an eye on things."

Anle blinked. "An Manyi?"

An Ning didn't mind An Le's disrespectful way of addressing her and nodded vigorously.

"Yes, yes, that family is always eyeing our family, always trying to cheat us out of something. You can't let our parents be bullied over there."

Anle stretched and scratched his head while lying in bed.

"There's probably no need for this. They probably wouldn't dare to go too far on a day like today."

Besides, didn't Grandpa go with us?

With the entire An family present, the old man, being a man of pride, wouldn't want to bring this up in front of his in-laws.

An Ning pouted, her eyes revealing worry.

"That's true, but I'm still worried. Didn't that family try to rip off our wild boar by asking for an exorbitant price?"

Anle looked dejected and let out a long sigh.

"Ah... okay, okay, I understand."

They probably wouldn't let me in anyway. When people talk about such important matters, aren't kids like us usually kicked out?

They wouldn't even notice it; they'd just think it was in their way.

An Ning smugly stroked her chin and grinned at An Le.

"If this happened to someone else, they might get kicked out, but if it happened to you, there would be absolutely no problem. Little sister, you have no idea how high your status is in our family now."

If you just say the word, Grandpa will definitely take you with him. You're the darling of our family; you're practically Grandpa's precious treasure.

Especially since our grandpa became obsessed with chess, he's been praising you all the time.

Anle's eyes darted around, and she looked at Anning curiously, asking her a question.

"Fourth Sister, speaking of which, our Grandpa can actually read the characters on chess pieces. Did he go to school before?"

An Ning shook her head.

"No, it was Grandma, our grandma taught me."

To paraphrase Mencius, our grandmother was a well-educated and reasonable person.

Once An Ning started talking, she couldn't stop, and began to talk excitedly about An Dalin's love romance.

"Speaking of which, this is quite interesting. Our grandma is an outsider, all alone, who settled down and put down roots in this village."

I heard she's incredibly beautiful; she looks like a rich girl.

They must have fallen on hard times and that's why they came to stay in our village.

Back then, it was only by constantly going to work for others that we managed to win over such a wonderful wife.

Grandpa did all the dirty and hard work, like carrying water, chopping wood, and carrying manure.

As time went on, our grandma realized how good our grandpa was, and that's why she married him and spent her whole life with him.

It's a pity his life was so short.

An Ning sighed regretfully, and An Le grabbed An Ning's nose and grinned.

"Fourth Sister, why are you sighing and mimicking an adult's voice like that?"

An Ning grumbled in dissatisfaction, "What? Beautiful women die young, isn't that tragic and lamentable?"

Anle clicked her tongue, "Oh dear, how pitiful and lamentable! Fourth Sister, ever since you entered school, you've become so eloquent and refined in your speech, speaking in such a proper and elegant manner."

Anning raised her hand and pinched Anle's ear, her face flushed as she scolded him.

"You brat, you even dare to tease your fourth sister now."

Anle was in excruciating pain, grimacing in agony.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Be gentle, be gentle! Fourth Sister, be gentle, you're going to pull my ear off!"

The two sisters were playfully fighting when Ankang came in with an egg in his little legs, smiling as he handed it to Anle, "Fifth sister, have an egg."

Anle raised her hand and pinched Ankang's little face, enjoying the playful squeezing of Ankang's cheeks.

"Little brother is so good. Little brother, eat. Fifth sister will go brush her teeth first and then eat."

Anning's eyes lit up when the topic of brushing teeth came up.
