Lan Yamei quickly gave a thumbs up, "You've cracked my secret recipe!"
Everyone burst into laughter. Suddenly, Lan Yamei remembered something and said to the old man, "I see you work so hard moving things around every day. Yesterday afternoon, I measured it out and decided to mark out a space for you at the entrance. You can work on it separately and build a two-story building. You can run a tofu pudding shop on the first floor and sell it all day long, which will earn you more money. You and your grandson can live on the second floor and run your own home."
She said this because Lan Ya Mei had secretly looked at that residence, and it was practically on the verge of collapse.
The grandfather and grandson dared not accept it and hurriedly declined, saying, "The young lady has already treated us too well; we cannot accept even the smallest bit more and invite ridicule."
"Whoever dares to talk nonsense will have their mouth torn off! Actually, I want your old house. It's a prime location, but I don't know if you're willing to give it to me?" Lan Yamei said after a change of heart.
The old man still refused, saying, "No, no, the young lady is clearly pitying us, how could I not know? Don't spend money on us, we are already very content with the life we have now."
Lan Yamei smiled and said, "It's settled then. I'll hire the most skilled carpenter, and we'll start work tonight. You can move in in two days at most. These next few days, besides doing business, you can stay home and pack your things."

The boy said shyly, "Wang Wei."
Lan Yamei was startled again and quickly said to the old man, "We must move! We have to move! This child will surely amount to something and go down in history. He can't give up his studies!"
After he finished speaking, everyone was surprised and then started to applaud.
Before the commotion had even died down, customers for tofu pudding had already arrived, and Lan Yamei took her bowl to find Aunt Guan. She'd been busy running around since returning yesterday and hadn't even had a chance to ask how business was on the clinic's first day of reopening.
