"Sister Lin, do you think I'll be able to sell these mooncakes?"
"Of course, it will definitely sell better than the kind I make!"
Lin Xiran said without even thinking.
Its unique and adorable design makes for a very satisfying bite.
There are savory and salty ones, as well as ones with a strong fruity flavor, and even ones with perilla seeds that get better the more you eat them...
It's so much better than the old way.
"So, Sister Lin, as long as you write a good story, what does it matter if it's different from what's on the market?"
Chi Tang shrugged and looked at the other person with a grin.
Lin Xiran suddenly felt enlightened.
The truth is quite simple, and Lin Xiran is not unaware of it. However, she is blinded by her own situation and lacks confidence in how good her novel is, which is why she is trapped in this predicament.
Now, after hearing what Chi Tang said, I suddenly realized that there are people who like and support my novels.
That's why I was able to make up my mind.
Sometimes it's not a lack of courage or ability, but simply a lack of encouragement and support from others.
"Tangtang, thank you."
Lin Xiran sincerely thanked the other party.
Chi Tang smiled and asked, "Are the mooncakes delicious?"
"tasty."
"That's good. Then I can let the people of Longmen County make mooncakes and sell them first."
She had made up her mind before the tofu shop was built and before Emperor Huiwu replied.
The people of Longmen County can make their own mooncakes and sell them.
With such a large city, the people of Longmen County will surely be able to sell their goods very well in other counties.
Those with mobility issues can stay home and make mooncakes.
"Tangtang, you are really amazing."
Lin Xiran gently patted Chi Tang's head and said softly, "Tangtang, you're five years old now. You should really start practicing your handwriting."
If you don't start practicing now, you'll have to suffer if you want to write beautiful characters in the future.
Chi Tang turned around, ready to make a run for it.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiran grabbed him.
"Sister Lin, could you please not move so fast?"
Chi Tang looked miserable.
Actually, no one in her family required her to have beautiful handwriting.
Emperor Huiwu, however, complained many times that Chi Tang's handwriting was too ugly!
It's an eyesore!
But Chi Tang felt that this made it more distinctive! And it wouldn't be easy for others to imitate.
Cough cough, I'm just too lazy to practice.
Writing with a brush is too troublesome, especially with traditional characters. It's already quite good that she can understand it.
(Emperor Huiwu: I can understand it because I'm incredibly intelligent, okay?)
In Aunt Chi and Uncle Chi's eyes, it's amazing that their daughter can write at such a young age!
I have to give it rave reviews!
So Chi Tang became complacent and even less willing to practice calligraphy.
I never expected to meet Lin Xiran.
"Whether the handwriting is beautiful or not is not important, but it must be neat and legible."
Moreover, Tangtang's handwriting reflects her personality. You can tell a person's character and appearance just by looking at their handwriting.
You... you should really practice more.
Chi Tang is destined for greatness.
Chi Tang was somewhat resigned to her fate, but still wanted to make a small effort: "I... I can't practice those calligraphy books that my family bought, I'm not used to them..."
"It's alright, I have some calligraphy practice books here that I can give you."
Lin Xiran was very generous.
Chi Tang: "Sister Lin, I've seen your handwriting. It's very beautiful and delicate, but I don't really like it..."
"You don't like the small calligraphy style with floral patterns? Come here."
Lin Xiran pulled Chi Tang to her own study.
In the study, Lin Xiran searched the bookshelf for a long time before picking up a stack of books and placing them on the table.
Yi Yi introduced to Chi Tang: "These are calligraphy practice books I've written in my spare time over the past few years. Don't worry, although I'm not an expert in any of the styles, they're all passable. Take your time to choose."
Chi Tang: ...
Scholars have different interests.
While others idle away their time, Lin Xiran spends it writing calligraphy!
Chi Tang randomly picked out two books to look at—
"Good heavens! Is this even acceptable?"
Chi Tang's eyes sparkled.
Lin Xiran smiled: "You know, this is a humble expression used by scholars. If it's acceptable, then it's excellent."
Chi Tang: ...
I flipped through about ten books; each one had a different font, but they were all very beautiful.
Chi Tang murmured, "Sister Lin, how do you know so many?"
"Don't you know even more? When I'm idle at home, I don't like writing those sentimental poems. But writing can calm my mind, so I've gradually learned to write more and more styles..."
"You know my background. My grandfather and father were extremely strict with me. These kinds of things, you either don't learn them at all, or you learn them well. That way, you can show them off, right?"
Listening to Lin Xiran's self-deprecating humor, Chi Tang suddenly felt that being born into a farming family wasn't so bad.
Imagine these little toddlers in a marquis's mansion, barely three or four years old, already having to learn this and that...
It's pathetic to think about it.
Indeed, no one is without hardship.
"Sister Lin is amazing! Thank you, Sister Lin. I want to practice this book."
Chi Tang selected her choice after a while.
Seeing that she hadn't looked at all the calligraphy books, Lin Xiran said, "You don't need to rush, take your time choosing."
"No, I just feel it's unnecessary to waste time on this. I have no interest in practicing calligraphy."
But Sister Lin is right, so I only need to choose one font to practice until I master it.
As for which font to practice, there's no need to waste too much time deciding.
Chi Tang has always been a man of action, and she never hesitates to do what she decides to do.
