The table was piled high with bags of coins, and the three siblings standing nearby were practically bulging their eyes out.

Su Jiang swallowed hard, barely managing to remain calm, while Su Ting jumped for joy, exclaiming, "My God, I've never seen so much money before! Fifteen taels!"

"Big sister, you are absolutely amazing!"

Even the little maid Su Yue knew the importance of money. She giggled happily and pounced on Su An, giving her a big kiss on the cheek. "Big sister, you're awesome!"

Su An let out a soft "ouch," a sense of smugness rising in her heart.

She ruffled the three little ones' heads and smiled confidently, "This is nothing. This is just the beginning. In the future, we will expand and strengthen our business, and open steamed bun shops all over the world."

Upon hearing this, the three siblings' eyes immediately lit up, and they cheered and applauded in unison.

Li Guihua also became happy, and her hand holding the copper coin trembled slightly.

"That's wonderful! Xiao An, now I can find you a good husband. Let's see who looks down on you now, we have so much dowry!"

Su An choked, speechless for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head.

"Mom, I'm not getting married! I want to build a bigger and stronger business and create even greater glory! Who knows who would benefit from marriage anyway? I want to be the richest woman in the world!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guihua was both amused and exasperated, and tapped her head.

"You brat, what are you saying? What kind of girl doesn't get married?"

...

The shop was filled with laughter and chatter, while outside, a carriage had been parked for quite some time, creating a tranquil scene against the backdrop of the surrounding gray walls.

Fu Zhun rested his forehead on his hand, faintly inhaling the aroma of steamed buns that he had been waking up all morning.

It wasn't until the shop closed that he seemed to wake from a dream, unable to resist opening his eyes and staring intently at the shop across the street.

Zhou Li finished what he had been told and returned to find the carriage, where he saw the guard's indescribable expression.

Is this some kind of glitch?

He frowned, ignored him, and went straight to the carriage to report the results to his master.

To my surprise, as soon as I lifted the curtain and went inside, a rich aroma of fresh and tender meat filled my nostrils.

Zhou Li stared in disbelief for a moment before noticing that the small table was neatly arranged with... steamed buns?!

At first glance, there are at least twenty or thirty!

"???"

no?

Your Highness, are you alright?

He instantly wore the same indescribable expression.

Fu Zhun glanced at him casually, and just as he was about to sit down, he smiled and said, "I'll be staying in Fuyou County for a while and buy the courtyard next to the sesame seed cake shop."

Zhou Li, who had been running errands for ages and hadn't even had a chance to sit down properly, thought to himself: "..."

Wait, what's wrong with this guy now?

What exactly happened while he was away?

Zhou Li asked for a long time, but Fu Huai ignored him completely, only lazily looking at the location of the steamed bun shop and urging him to hurry up and do his business.

Could it be that Your Highness has taken a fancy to the owner of the pancake shop?

Thinking about it carefully, the young boss was indeed very beautiful, with a face as lovely as a peach blossom.

Especially those who are quick-witted and have big, bright eyes that seem to speak volumes.

I never expected the prince to have such a taste!

Zhou Li suddenly realized what was going on and immediately went to check out the shop.

"Your Highness, rest assured, I will definitely help you!"

Oh dear, the iron tree has blossomed! The prince is eager to sleep with the girl!

Zhou Li rushed away, his handsome face beaming with joy.

Su An had no idea that someone was targeting her. She sneezed and rubbed her nose.

These chilies are so spicy, they made her eyes water!

She has one pork intestine left today, and she plans to make pork intestine noodles for everyone to try.

Heat oil in a wok, then add chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, ginger, garlic and other seasonings to sauté until fragrant. Next, add pickled cabbage and bean sprouts in that order, and after a few moments, add the pork intestines and stir-fry. Finally, season with appropriate amounts of light soy sauce, sugar, salt and other seasonings.

In a separate pot, once the noodles were cooked, the stir-fried pork intestines and pickled vegetables were poured over the steaming noodles, instantly filling the entire kitchen with their aroma.

"This...this is actually made from stinky fatty intestines!" Su Ting's eyes widened, and drool dripped all over the ground.

He couldn't wait any longer and reached out to grab a bite.

Su An quickly grabbed him and gave him a sharp rap on the forehead, saying with a mix of laughter and tears, "You little rascal, don't be in such a hurry, let's eat when all the dishes are ready."

The second brother and the younger sister, who were also swallowing hard, immediately quieted down when they saw this.

Su An took out the remaining pig offal and stir-fried the pig liver and heart. Then he made braised pork with the newly bought pork.

Stir-fried pork offal, each slice is thin and even, red and glossy, paired with bright green bell peppers and tender yellow ginger slices, the unique flavor is domineering and spicy.

The braised pork was even more impressive; the bright red pieces of meat, with alternating layers of fat and lean meat, were glistening with oil, resembling pieces of sparkling agate inlaid on the plate.

Once all the dishes were laid out on the table, Li Guihua was drawn out by the various rich aromas without even being invited.

The three little ones had already started eating eagerly, their mouths greasy and they were slurping with delight.

These dishes were all made by Xiao An?!

"Xiao An, where did you learn to cook? How come I didn't know you were such a good cook before?"

Su An remained calm, picked up a piece of braised pork with his chopsticks and gave it to Li Guihua, then delivered the speech he had prepared beforehand.

“Mother, I learned these skills from a book I picked up a while ago. Before that, I was always following He Cheng around and didn’t have this kind of mindset. I was only focused on becoming the wife of a top scholar…”

After saying that, she sighed, put on a sorrowful look, and her eyes welled up with tears.

"I've given up now. I just want to inherit my mother's shop and live a good life with my family!"
