"There were two people here just now. One was sitting here drinking tea, and the other was leaning against the railing, perhaps looking towards our hot pot restaurant." Her waist was pressed against the railing.

His gaze fell directly in the direction of his own accounting office.

“Yes!” Lu Wujiu nodded.

The hot pot restaurant has been in trial operation for three days.

This delicious food has already spread to a small circle. If someone in the know inquires, they will find out that the hot pot restaurant is run by a woman. If they come out and take a look, they can guess what's going on.

"Should we chase after them?" Lu Wujiu asked.

Su Jiaoniang raised an eyebrow: "You can still catch up?"

Once you get up there, you can't see anyone anymore.

Although she has a keen sense of smell, it's not sensitive enough to distinguish the scent of a stranger from the air and where they're fleeing to. She's not a police dog.

“We can’t catch up, but we can chase the wind!” Lu Wujiu said.

Su Jiaoniang turned around and her gaze fell on Lu Wujiu.

Indeed, some words are very appealing when spoken by good-looking people. If Lu Wujiu in front of me were a thin-skinned, glib-tongued person, those words would sound very greasy.

"Let's not chase the wind anymore, let's go home for dinner." Su Jiaoniang lacked a bit of romantic flair.

She felt she should rest.

Having no other choice, Lu Wujiu turned off the lights in the accounting room and followed Su Jiaoniang, the two of them walking together toward their residence in the small courtyard.

Seeing the only remaining bedroom, Su Jiaoniang pointed to the room where Chu Jiu and Shi Yi were staying: "Why don't you squeeze in?"

"...No, no, this bed isn't big enough. It's already uncomfortable for the two of us who are both 1.9 meters tall to squeeze together!" Eleven ran out and said crisply.

He said he wanted to meet Su Jiaoniang's murderous gaze.

He shuddered and retreated abruptly towards his room.

He closed the door behind him!

Lu Wujiu looked at Su Jiaoniang: "I have nowhere to sleep."

"You decide for yourself!" Su Jiaoniang said, then began washing up and walking towards her bedroom.

She only let the man sleep in her bed yesterday because he looked travel-worn, but if he wanted to sleep with her, that would be fine.

That doesn't exist.

In her view, love between men and women is an extremely normal thing in this world.

Do what you love with your loved one.

That's in line with development.

But he truly was her lover!

Su Jiaoniang, who had been single since birth in her previous life, didn't know much about this.

I don't have much experience in how to love someone.

They were simply following their own preconceived notions and understandings on the path of emotions.

Lu Wujiu glanced at the room lit by candlelight, sighed, and turned to look at the woodshed. The woodshed was a bit messy, but it could be lived in after a little cleaning.

I just lay down on the template bed.

Two figures appeared in front of him.

Chu Jiu and Shi Yi looked at Lu Wujiu on the rough wooden bed and said, "Master, you go sleep on the bed, we'll sleep here."

I was just being mischievous to speed up the adults' progress. If they progressed faster, who knows, they might even have a little prince.

As a result, the adults were so restrained and so respectful of etiquette.

Such utter incompetence!

Lu Wujiu shook his head: "No need, go to sleep."

In the eyes of women, he was no more noble than the ninth or eleventh day of the lunar month, regardless of who came first or last.

Moreover, Ganzhou Prefecture is not a place to live for a long time.

Who knows when the woman might suddenly return to the village? He simply respects women; it has nothing to do with his competence or incompetence.

Close your eyes, and you'll quickly forget all your worldly troubles.

Seeing Lu Wujiu fast asleep, Chu Jiu and Shiyi looked at each other, both feeling that the days of waiting for the young prince were rather long.

Why didn't Chief Zhao Han come this time?

"They're married!" Eleven exclaimed.

...

Envy flashed in Chu Jiu's eyes.

The two were good brothers, and they went back to their room to sleep together.

For people like them, it's extremely difficult, very difficult, to find a stable life!

The next day at dawn.

Su Jiaoniang got up and walked towards the hot pot shop.

The hall was packed with guests as usual that day.

Even the 24th seems to be short-handed.

The people chopping and washing vegetables in the kitchen were so tired that their arms started to cramp.

The day's business ends at night.

When cleaning, no one could straighten their back.

However, none of the workers in the shop dared to voice their dissatisfaction, let alone suggest that Su Jiaoniang hire more staff.

Their minds were vividly filled with how Eleven had chopped wood and threatened the people.

Zhongren is an ordinary, very free person.

They were able to threaten them to that extent.

They were all servants, meant to work themselves to the bone; now they were simply getting what they wanted.

At least we can finally have enough to eat.

"Alright, everyone must be tired today, go home and rest early. I'll find you a few more helpers tomorrow." Su Jiaoniang saw how busy everyone was.

She had noticed that there were many wealthy people in Ganzhou.

People who came today weren't just here for dinner and hot pot.

Other restaurants and eateries also came to inquire, wanting to know if they could make this dish and whether it would taste good!

Some people even poured the chili peppers from the condiment station into their pockets, intending to take them home and use them as a condiment.

That's really...

never mind!

Similar things happened in later generations. 'However, that was an era of abundant resources.'

Very few people would do something like that.

Su Jiaoniang stared at the chili peppers that were being consumed too quickly, and hurriedly wrote a letter to Huang Erlan, asking him to double the planting of chili peppers this year. If there wasn't enough land, she suggested renting or selling some, and hiring some farmhands to help with the planting.

Chili peppers are not very common in this world.
