Mrs. Xiao Wu almost fainted from crying at the entrance of the Government Office, but it was Zhang Yongchang who eventually took her away.

She cried for two straight days. Seeing her two children who were not yet adults, Mrs. Xiao Wu could only swallow her tears and find a way to carry on with her life.

She could no longer linger in town and she finally agreed to Zhang Yongchang’s proposal and decided to temporarily move to Zhang Yongchang’s old house in Zeng County with all her belongings from home.

Changji Tofu shop had disappeared from the town.

Because Zhuang Qingning’s family was the only one selling tofu in town and the tofu was both tasty and reasonably priced. Only a limited quantity of tofu was available each day and hence the customers would come early to buy.

This further sped up the tofu selling process for Zhuang Qingning, which reduced the time to set up the stall each day.

With limited time for selling and an early closing, those who came late had no choice but to come earlier the next time.

Slowly, Zhuang Qingning’s business developed a positive cycle, her tofu store was thriving, and it was so prosperous that it caused a lot of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Fushun Tower businesses have been doing very well these past few days as well.

Partly because of the braised tofu dish and also due to the new dish, braised big bones.

A large portion of braised big bones came with meat and soup. They could also be coupled with a side dish. They were generous in quantity and favourably priced. The taste was excellent, and it was satisfying to eat, naturally garnering much popularity.

Braised big bones quickly became the best-selling signature dish at Fushun Tower.

Feng Yongkang looked very pleased with this situation.

“Manager,” Lian Rong found Feng Yongkang and laughed, saying: “My Master has been busy these past few days and hasn’t been able to meet you. He asked me to check if Miss Zhuang’s reward has been arranged and when we could invite her to dine with us.”

“That…”

Feng Yongkang’s smile faded a little. He pondered and said: “I’m still figuring out how to handle this.”

“In any case, assure your Master that I’ll handle it properly, he has nothing to worry about.”

“Alright then.” Lian Rong acknowledged happily, “Then I will leave you to your business, Manager. 1’11 head to the kitchen now.”

With that said, he left like the wind.

Once Lian Rong left, there was no hint of merriment remaining on Feng Yongkang’s face.

All these days have passed, and he thought that this matter had been forgotten. Unexpectedly, it still bothers them, and they came to ask about it.

Being biased towards outsiders was terrible.

His own brother-in-law ended up in such a condition, and yet he didn’t even go to the county town to try and sort things out. However, for the matter concerning a maid from who-knows-where, he was surprisingly concerned.

Most people say that the older they get, the wiser they become. But why does it seem like Zhang Yongchang is just becoming more muddled with age?

Feng Yongkang shook his head and walked out with his hands behind his back.
