Chen Ahfu agreed very readily. This price was very good. Besides, he also made it clear at the dinner table that he would help his family if they had any problems in the future.

There happened to be a few steamed buns left at home. She invited Yang Mingyuan and the chef Kang who came with her to the kitchen to watch her make fine bran. She said that using this fine bran, not only the lean meat is delicious, but also the ribs, chicken wings, chicken legs, meatballs, shrimps, fish fillets, etc. are all delicious. But you can't use the wings and legs of old hens, because these two things will never be tender no matter how you fry them.

Also, you must use the back of a knife to loosen the meat so that it will be flavorful and tender.

Next, golden tender meat was made with fine sugar.

Yang Mingyuan gave Chen Ahfu sixty taels of silver and said, "You can make this dish for yourself, but you must not tell others the secret." He reiterated, "We businessmen usually give gifts to the police. If you have any problems, you can come to the county town to find me."

Chen Ahfu thanked him again and took out the small dress he made for Yang Qian. This dress was the same as the one he made for Luo Mei, except that the scarlet color was changed to crabapple red.

He smiled and said, "I know that Uncle Yang's family is rich, and the children have no shortage of clothes. But Sister Qian is adorable, so I made her a small set of clothes, don't despise it."

Yang Mingyuan smiled and said, "Mrs. Chen is very skillful. She loved the doll you made for Sister Qian last time. She even hugged it when she slept. Thank you."

After seeing off Yang Mingyuan and his son, Chen Afu and Wang sent Luo Mingcheng and Luo Meijie to Tangyuan. They also brought a large bowl of braised meat, because Luo Xiaoguanshi said that their family liked to eat the nine-spice braised food from Xile Restaurant. They also gave Yang Mingyuan a jar of small Yuanchun wine.

This time, Yang Yuanming presented two jars of small Yuanchun wine, two packages of snacks, two packages of candies, a set of pens, inkstones, and a few rolls of paper. This gift was very generous.

Chen Ahfu guessed that he gave such a generous gift not only because the children of the two families played well, but also because they made the sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice and dates snack, so he used these things as compensation. This time he directly gave 60 taels of silver and did not ask for a contract. Such a kind businessman is rare, no matter in the past or present.

When we got home, the sun was setting. Sitting in the east room of the old courtyard, the family laughed happily. They were no longer afraid that Hu Laowu would plot against their family. That shameless villain was the one who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Fortunately, my family had already established good relations with Manager Luo and Yang Mingyuan, otherwise not only the two parrots would be in danger, but there would also be endless troubles in the future.

Chen Afu took out another ten-liang silver ingot and gave it to Chen Ming. Chen Ming shook his head and refused, but Chen Afu stuffed it into his hand.

We had porridge and side dishes for dinner.

After dinner, Chen Ming and Wang went to the main room again and brought a bag of snacks and a jar of Yuanchun wine sent by Yang Mingyuan. Although it was Luo Xiaoguanshi who dealt with Hu Laowu, Chen Ming could see that Chen Ye, who was very proud, felt embarrassed.

Chen Ahfu said, "Dad, you can keep this jar of wine for yourself."

Chen Ming shook his head and said, "Your uncle likes this, and your grandma and Agui can drink it too."

Not long after they left, the adults who bullied Dabao brought their children to the Chen family to apologize. The three adults also liked to take advantage of others, so Hu Laowu gave them some benefits and let their children bully Chen Dabao.

Although he knew that Hu Laowu was the mastermind behind the incident, Chen Afu was still furious when he saw these boys directly bullying Dabao.

She pointed at them and cursed with a sullen face, "If you dare to bully my Dabao again, I will not let you go even if I have to sacrifice my life. Whichever hand you hit him with, I will chop off that hand. If you don't believe me, try it."

Chen Afu was famous in the village for his toughness. The children were so scared that they said they would never do it again, and the adults also said they would keep the children under control.

Chen Ming and Wang came back and said that one side of Hu's face was bruised, probably because Chen Ye beat her last night. Today she was unusually honest and kept explaining that she really didn't know that Hu Laowu had done those two bad things.

Chen Ahfu felt relieved after hearing this. Although she had always disapproved of men using violence, only violence could make a woman like Hu behave herself. Moreover, Hu Laowu had clearly slapped the Chen family in the face, which was also a slap on Chen Ye's face. Chen Ye would not be able to tolerate her during this period.

Chen Ahfu laughed again and said, "Didn't Uncle ask about our business with Uncle Yang?"

Chen Ming said, "I asked..."

Chen Ye asked about the business between Uncle Yang and his family. Chen Ming said that Uncle Yang liked the dishes made by Chen Afu and bought the recipe, but he was too embarrassed to ask how much he sold them for.

He also said, "... Ah Fu has already started her own business, and all the money she earns belongs to her. I asked her to save it to buy some land, so that they can live better in the future. But Ah Fu is a filial child, and he also wants to show respect to us."

Hu curled her lips to show her disbelief, looked at Chen Ye, and still dared not speak.

Chen Mingzhi apologized to Chen Ye and kept it secret from his elder brother.

Chen Ahfu said, "Dad, this is the right thing to do. You are not hiding anything. Every person and every family has privacy. There are some things that even parents won't tell. Remember your uncle's kindness in your heart. In the future, our family will have a better life. Just don't forget him."

In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of September. Mrs. Hu rarely came home to cause trouble, which made the second wife's life very comfortable.

In two days they would go to the capital. Now the reaction to the "gold thief" had calmed down, and Chen Ahfu wanted to take out some gems and sell them at the silver shop to buy a few more acres of land.

In ancient times, only by buying land could one feel at ease and not have to worry about having no food to eat.

There is another unknown reason for the rush to buy land. A month ago, Chen Afu took some cucumber seeds into the space and left them there for a day before planting them in the vegetable field. When the cucumbers matured, they were larger than ordinary cucumbers and tasted better.

Chen Ahfu was secretly delighted. That space wasn't so useless. Although she couldn't grow crops or herbs in it, the spiritual energy inside could grow seeds. She wanted to do more experiments. If she could really grow good seeds, she would buy more fields and grow grain and fruit.

With this cheat, your goal is no longer just to be a small landlord, becoming a big landlord is just around the corner.

That night, Chen Afu waited until Dabao fell asleep, and then he slipped into the space.

The fragrance in the space became stronger. The golden swallow had to eat the leaves of the agarwood tree frequently to build its house. It was working so hard to build its golden house that it didn't even bother to pay attention to her.

Chen Afu didn't disturb it, but sorted out the gold and jewels left over from building the house.

In addition to the gold pieces, there were three rubies, three pearls, two emeralds, two sapphires, three beautiful jadeite and jade with flowers and birds carved on them, and two diamonds, a total of fifteen pieces. Although these jewels were not as good as those inlaid in the golden house, they were already very good.
