The family talked for a long time, and as it grew darker, they all went back to their rooms to rest.
Wan Qiqi lived alone in the house next door. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep for a while but couldn't fall asleep, so she got up and started rummaging through the cabinets.
She remembered Tao Ran mentioning the red envelope Wan Ziyan had given her, which she had casually stuffed into the cabinet.
After a while, she finally found the red envelope at the very bottom of the wardrobe.
She carefully opened it, and inside was a land deed and the official seal.
The name written on it is also her name, Wan Qiqi.
Wan Qiqi couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. She had said she didn't need to give him these things, but he still did it!
Wan Ziyan was really worried about her; before leaving, he even wanted to buy her a house.

She brought the land deed close to the candlelight, carefully examining the words on it, her eyes revealing a hint of shock.
Suddenly, her eyes welled up with tears, and her lips trembled slightly.

Aren't you afraid that she might not be careful when tearing it up and end up destroying the land deed?

Xinglong Restaurant must cost at least several hundred taels!
During the Lunar New Year period, where did Wan Ziyan get so much money? He must have borrowed it from Tao Ran.
It's no wonder Tao Ran knew what was inside the red seal.
Her brother and Master Tao were well-versed in Confucian classics and knew the principles of male superiority and that women should stay at home to support their husbands and raise their children, but they were never feudalistic towards themselves or their families.
Wan Ziyan would secretly buy the shop to support her in opening a restaurant.
Tao Ran would have his younger sister study the books that men should study, so that she would be well-read and not be outdone by men.
Although this was a feudal era, there were still some people who did not adhere to feudal principles.
