The restaurant's business worsened, and within a few months, it became unprofitable. Thus, Yang's Restaurant went out of business, and the employees left one after another to find other jobs.
Yang Xiaoli sold the restaurant without knowing that Ling Yun was the buyer; otherwise, she would never have sold it to him.
She lived a quiet life behind closed doors, planning to adopt a child to carry on the Yang family line.
But everyone knew she had sold the restaurant and had a huge sum of money, so some scoundrels set their sights on her.
One night, a group of scoundrels broke into the Yang family home. Yang Xiaoli refused to submit and died under their knife, her soul vanishing forever.
When Ling Yun heard about it, he brought Ran Dong back to handle the funeral arrangements, and people praised him for his loyalty and righteousness.
The constables quickly apprehended the scoundrel and recovered the missing large sum of money.
Ling Yun was good at interpersonal relationships. He donated the silver and won the favor of the county magistrate. In the future, when he did business, the county magistrate would give him preferential treatment.
The Yang family had no descendants left. Lingyun sold the Yang family ancestral home, bought a new house, and lived a happy life with Ran Dong.
?
Xiao Li opened her eyes. She had arrived just in time, but unfortunately, Yang's father had just passed away and could not be brought back to life.
Xiao Li looked at the body and found it to be relatively healthy. After all, she had been learning cooking since childhood and was not the kind of weak and helpless young lady from a wealthy family.
I haven't been getting enough rest lately, so I have big dark circles under my eyes and my complexion looks rather pale.
After sensing it, I realized that this body has a rare fire elemental root.
This time, her role was that of a cook, and with this spiritual root, she could achieve twice the results with half the effort.
"Youyou, it's time to get to work."
It entered the body with a gentle and joyful air, slowly beginning to refine itself within.
Xiao Li possesses immense mental strength, far surpassing that of ordinary people even without cultivation.
In just one night, she reached the fifth level of Qi Refining.
?
Ling Yun was fast asleep in bed, completely unaware that there was another person in the bed.
Ran Dong woke up groggily and found herself embracing a handsome man.
This man perfectly matched her aesthetic, and she couldn't help but snuggle closer to him. If this was a beautiful dream, she wished she could stay asleep forever.
Xiao Li sensed something was wrong and went to Ling Yun's door.
Her divine sense immediately spotted Ran Dong, who had appeared on Ling Yun's bed.
Xiao Li administered the sleeping pills, and the breathing in the room immediately became steady.
Xiao Li picked up Ran Dong and threw him onto the bed of the scoundrel Dong Dawu, then clapped her hands and went home.
This Dong Dawu is the one who bullied the original owner of this body; we'll deal with him later.
Xiao Li was unaware that after she left, Ran Dong slept soundly through the night. This was because Dong Dawu had gotten drunk and was fast asleep.
In the early morning, Ran Dong woke up to find herself holding a man whose head looked like a pig's.
She was terrified and accidentally discovered that the kitchen had followed her. In a moment of panic, she slipped into the kitchen.
"Last night I seemed to dream that I was holding a beautiful young woman. Sigh, was it just a dream? It was such a lovely dream."
After waking up, Dong Dawu smelled the lingering scent of his daughter on his body, feeling both confused and regretful.
When Ran Dong heard his self-talk in the space, she immediately became furious and cursed loudly. When she thought about how she had transmigrated to this place, she was so frightened that she burst into tears.
"Waaaah... I want to go home."
When she was tired of crying, she realized that her stomach was growling with hunger. She opened the refrigerator and found a lot of ingredients inside, so she made herself a bowl of beef noodles.
As a member of a family with a long tradition of culinary arts, although I'm not an expert, I can still cook.
Once Dong Dawu had left, she quickly slipped out, ransacked his house, and then left.
"Consider this compensation for taking advantage of me."
Ran Dong blushed as she recalled the handsome young man she had vaguely seen last night.
Was she dreaming? Mistaking Dong Dawu, that toad, for a handsome young man?
She walked aimlessly down the street, wearing the clean clothes that had been taken from Dong Dawu's house.
She only realized while searching for things that she had actually traveled to a time and space similar to ancient times.
Her clothes and appearance were very different from those of modern times. She secretly observed the people outside and copied their style before daring to go out.
As she walked, she suddenly froze, because she saw the man she had dreamed about the night before on the street.
Ling Yun didn't sleep well either. He suddenly felt empty inside, as if he had lost something.
He wandered around the streets in the morning while he went out to buy groceries, and he's been wandering around for an hour now, but he still doesn't want to go home.
"Young Master Ling, what are you still doing here? Isn't the restaurant busy today?"
Ling Yun smiled awkwardly, "My junior brothers are watching over me, I just came out to buy some groceries."
"Your master left us so suddenly, and your junior sister is all alone now. You must take good care of her."
"Okay, Auntie, I will."
Ye San Niang pulled Ling Yun along and continued nagging.
"From now on, the Yang Family Restaurant will depend on you to support it. You have to keep a close eye on it and make sure it doesn't fall into ruin."
Ye San Niang watched the original owner grow up and treated her like a daughter. She also cared a lot about the Yang Family Restaurant.
Ling Yun gave a perfunctory reply and took his leave.
"Auntie, I'll head back now; the restaurant's still busy."
"Okay, okay, you can go back and get back to work now."
Ye San Niang casually stuffed a handful of scallions into his hand before letting him go back.
Ling Yun hurriedly rushed to the restaurant. He was most afraid of people like Ye San Niang who talked a lot; he found it annoying to listen to them too much.
As he passed a steamed bun shop, he couldn't help but take a second look. The steamed buns seemed especially fragrant today. He had been observing mourning with the original owner of this body and hadn't eaten meat for a long time.
"Bang……"
"Ouch, that hurts!"
Suddenly, he felt a soft touch in his arms; it seemed he had bumped into someone.
Looking up, I saw a girl kneeling on the ground, constantly stroking her legs.
Lingyun blushed again; making such a gesture on the street seemed too unladylike.
But the girl's sweet and innocent tone was especially adorable.
Although she was dressed as a man, Ling Yun could tell at a glance that she was a girl.
"Are you...are you alright?"
Ling Yun wanted to help her up, but fearing that men and women should not touch each other, he dared not go forward.
Just as Ran Dong's eyebrows furrowed and she was about to lash out, the face of her dream man came into view.
She stared at Ling Yun, speechless.
Ling Yun frowned. Could this girl have been injured in the accident?
In the end, he still stepped forward to help Ran Dong up and took her to a nearby clinic.
The doctor examined them and found only minor abrasions. He didn't prescribe any medicine, just bandaged them up, and the two of them left.
Ran Dong had come to her senses. So this was the young man she had seen last night. But she couldn't understand why she ended up sleeping in Dong Dawu's bed.
But now that she's met him, this young man is hers.
