A cicada landed on an osmanthus tree.
After finishing the meal.
Yang Xinghua took out five tea cakes from her home.
Qin Luo smiled and asked softly, "Sister Yang, how much did tea cakes sell for before?"
“A few years ago it was two hundred coins a piece, but recently it’s gotten cheaper and cheaper, less than one hundred coins. I’ll still give you the market price, just to make friends.” Yang Xinghua thought Qin Luo and the others were nice people and didn’t want to take advantage of them.
Hua Ying took out two taels of silver, "Sister Yang, this is the extra amount as payment for the meal you treated us to."
"Girl, you don't need that much."
Yang Xinghua waved her hands repeatedly.
Hua Ying raised an eyebrow. "Sister Yang, we can make a lot of money by taking the tea cakes to the north."
"Just give me an ounce or two."
"All right."
Hua Ying then gave Yang Xinghua one tael of silver.
After putting away the tea cake, Qin Luo and Hua Ying continued on their way. A cicada landed on Qin Luo's shoulder, and Hua Ying only glanced at it before the cicada was startled and took flight.
"Who cooks better, me or Sister Yang?"
"They're all delicious."
"Can't you just lie to me?"
"You cook well."

"I gave the umbrella away."
"Who did you give it to?"
"A strange girl."
"..."
Qin Luo and Hua Ying arrived at the local earth god temple outside the town. Although the temple was only half a person tall, it had everything it needed. There were still unburnt incense sticks and candles in front of the temple. A figure appeared. The earth god of Qingyu Town knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Great Immortal, I have always obeyed your orders and taken care of the Li family."
"How is Miss Li?"
"Miss Li married into the Shen family in Jiangnan City. She comes back to visit Master Li every year. She has a happy marriage and a five-year-old daughter."
"Thank you for your guidance, senior."
"Of course."
Qin Luo bowed respectfully, and then he and Hua Ying disappeared into the sunset. The Earth God of Qingyu Town was still trembling, thinking, "What a terrifying female immortal, she's like half the sky."
