Chapter 113 Her Answer
Crispy fried chicken is very popular.
Su couldn't help herself today, and chewed the chicken leg in her hand like a few children.
While chewing, he praised: "Tangtang, how did you come up with this dish? It's so delicious! You have a really good brain!"
"Mom is the best!" Lu Tiantian had a mouth full of oil, and she turned her head to give Jiang Tangtang a kiss. Jiang Tangtang's face was covered with oil from her kiss, but she didn't feel dirty, but was very happy.
Thinking about the feeling of that soft little mouth kissing my face, thinking about her sweet smile when she spoke to me.
Jiang Tangtang thought she already had the answer in her heart.
If you choose to leave them because you are worried about danger and live with another identity from then on, you may be able to live safely to old age, but your life will be less happy!
A meal spent in laughter.
After dinner, Jiang Tangtang talked about Xue Banxian accepting a disciple. Although it was previously planned that a banquet would be held for the apprenticeship, there was no actual ceremony.
Which child to choose to teach medical skills depends not only on Doctor Xue but also on the opinions of several other children.
However, although they have not yet become disciples, it has been decided that Xue Banxian will accept one of the children as his disciple.
Both Madam Lu and Mrs. Su were a little excited.
In the past, the status of the third child would naturally make it unsuitable for them to study medicine. But now it was different. The Lu family was in such a situation, and it was a great thing for the children to learn a medical skill.
Lu Shiyan's enlistment in the army was a foregone conclusion, and hearing such good news the night before he left gave the two of them some comfort.
After dinner, the family went to bed.
Looking at the sleeping children, Jiang Tangtang hesitated for a moment and whispered, "You don't need to ask anyone to make arrangements. I'm with the children."
Lu Shiyan was taking off his clothes when he paused, "Have you thought it through?"
He lowered his brows and finished the rest of his words, "Actually, you don't have to rush to answer me. You can think about it slowly. This is a big deal."
Jiang Tangtang pursed her lips and said, "I've thought it through. No need to think about it anymore."
Lu Shiyan tilted his head and looked at her quietly. After a long while, he said, "You won't try to persuade me to change my mind?"
Jiang Tangtang asked, "Why should I persuade him?" The key is, will he listen if she persuades him? She would never do such a thing that is beyond her ability.
"Besides, we may not lose!" The worst that can happen is that if we fail in the future, we can just go overseas and live a happy life. So the key is to make a lot of money first!
Lu Shiyan smiled suddenly, looked at her gently and said, "Do you trust me so much?"
Meeting his gentle gaze, Jiang Tangtang's heartbeat quickened. She looked away uncomfortably and said, "Who believed you? I only believe in myself, okay?"
Lu Shiyan looked at her with interest and said, "I didn't expect you to have such ambitions!"
Jiang Tangtang thought, I don't want to overthrow a dynasty, let alone become an emperor. She is just...
It's just that I can't bear to leave my children and I'm greedy for such warmth.
But he said, "That's not true. I have long planned to become the richest man in the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Lu Shiyan smiled and said, "Don't feel any pressure. Just take care of yourself and the children. I'll take care of everything else."
After that, the two of them didn't talk about this topic anymore.
Moreover, Lu Shiyan’s secret plans had to be made as if they never happened.

Today is the day for new recruits to report to Raobei Camp. Almost all the families in the village have come out to send their male members to the barracks.
Jiang Tangtang, like everyone else, saw Lu Shiyan off at the intersection. However, she remained calm and didn't cry like the other villagers.
"Here are the medicines prepared for you by Doctor Xue. The one in the green bottle is for stopping bleeding, the one in the white bottle is for wound medicine, and there are also some pork jerky and small cakes. The weather is cool now, so they shouldn't spoil easily. You can take them as you like." Jiang Tangtang handed the bundle to Lu Shiyan.
Lu Shiyan listened to her gentle whispers and suddenly wanted to hold him in his arms. But there were people all around him, so he finally withdrew his gaze and said, "Go back!"
Jiang Tangtang nodded, but seeing the reluctant eyes of the children, she didn't really leave. She waited until she could no longer see Lu Shiyan before taking the children home.
Lu Shiyan went to the barracks to serve as a soldier. Su was in a very low mood and had no energy for the whole morning.
Jiang Tangtang felt that this was not a solution for her. She thought that in addition to the cooks, clerks, and handymen, there would also need to be someone to collect the money and take care of the accounts. So she brought it up with her.
Su was indeed much more energetic after hearing this, but she was also a little worried. "Can I do it? I've never been an accountant before! What if I don't do it well?"
Jiang Tangtang was just deciding the prices for the various items in the shop. She casually mentioned a few items, explaining the price and required quantity, and asked her to calculate how much she should charge.
Su reacted quickly and spoke out immediately.
Jiang Tangtang mentioned a few more items, which were a little more complicated than before, but Su just thought about it for a moment and then told the amount of silver that should be collected.
Jiang Tangtang said, "Mom, you calculated very well, didn't you? Be more confident in yourself."
Su smiled.
Seeing her spirits rise, Jiang Tangtang stopped talking. Workers and carpenters would be coming to the shop today, so she had to go over and oversee the work.
Su didn't follow him for the time being.
Guo Yu didn't go with them yesterday; it was Lu Shili who took Jiang Tangtang there. However, Lu Shili sent Jiang Tangtang to the county town and then returned to the village. He was worried about the women at home taking care of the children, so he had to go home to look after them.
For the time being, Jiang Tangtang is the only one left in the county town.
Jiang Tangtang was watching the decoration of the shop while purchasing raw materials in preparation for the opening of the shop.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the opening day of Jiuxia Silver Shop.
Because Chu Mingyu followed Jiang Tangtang's suggestion and had someone compose a ballad and have children sing it in the county, the news that Jiuxia Silver Shop would give away gifts upon its opening had basically spread throughout the county.
On the opening day, Jiuxia attracted many customers.
Of course, some are curious, while others come because they want to take advantage of a small opportunity.
"What is your jewelry store giving away today?" Many women asked while standing at the door.
The waiter stood at the door and shouted loudly, "Anyone who buys 100 taels of silver at Jiuxia Silver Shop today will become a member of Jiuxia Silver Shop! Each member will receive a scented candle, and every year during the Qiqiao Festival, there will be a mysterious gift!"
"Didn't you say it would be free even if I didn't buy it? Aren't you lying?" a woman said dissatisfiedly.
The waiter smiled and said loudly, "It's free even if you don't buy. Those who don't buy, line up here and each of them will get a small cookie from the cake shop."
"What kind of cookies are those from a pastry shop? I've never heard of them before." Someone muttered.
Although they were grumbling, they didn't need to pay, so everyone still followed the waiter's instructions and went to the side to get the cookies.
Jiang Tangtang actually provided these small cookies to Jiuxia Silver House for free in order to advertise his own shop in advance.
This cookie is a butter-free version of the egg yolk cookie. The main ingredients are eggs, flour, sugar and lemon juice.
The lemon juice is produced in space, and the cookies baked in the oven taste very fragrant.
Jiang Tangtang was confident that this gift would make her shop a hit in the county before it even opened.
