The sunset hung high in the sky, gradually fading as time passed. It was springtime, the season of blooming flowers, and the days were growing longer. Had it been winter, the moon would already be high in the sky by now, with the heavens as dark as ink. It was dinnertime. Smoke curled up from every household in Lexiang County. At every courtyard one passed, just a shallow breath could catch the scent of all kinds of dishes—mouthwatering aromas that stirred the appetite and made those still on the road…-

Chapter 454: The One and Only
"Later on, since I kept going further and further away, I simply stopped going back. Whenever I arrived somewhere, I’d just find a place to settle down and start doing business." "All the ingredients, I’d buy locally from people in the area." "And just like that—going from place to place, stopping here and there—two years passed before I returned to Lin County." At this point, Jin Wan clapped the flour from his hands, picked up a large ladle, stirred the contents of the iron pot, and ladled out…-

“Mr. Gu, it took me a long time to figure it out afterward.” “Making lamb soup is just like being a person. Only when you do it with your whole heart will the lamb soup taste good.” “Thinking back to that time, I was so eager to form a connection with you that I foolishly made you some lamb soup… Looking back, you were absolutely right not to eat it. That lamb soup would’ve only made people sick.” As he spoke, Jin Wan rolled out each piece of dough into equally sized circles. His…

Chapter 452: Catching Up
“The main store opened that much later than the branch?” “Logically speaking, shouldn't the first shop the old shopkeeper opened be considered the main shop?” Zheng Hanrui asked with a curious look on her face. The shop assistant shook his head. “I wouldn’t know about that. I’m just a worker here. The old shopkeeper must have his own reasons for how he arranged things.” “Just like our shop's signboard. Which shop doesn’t have a sign?” “But we simply don’t have one.” “If…-

After being rejected, the "hopeless romantic" buried his head and started eating his lamb soup in silence. The remaining two couldn't help but feel a sense of "sympathy between fellow sufferers" and quietly began eating as well. Qin Hao ate rather crudely, holding a flatbread in one hand and a bowl of soup in the other, alternating between bites of flatbread and sips of soup. Chen Ren, on the other hand, ate very properly—using chopsticks to pick up the flatbread, taking small bites, and drinking his…

The scholar, the martial youth, and the childhood friend on stilts—all three of them looked at Gu Ning’an with slightly different, complicated expressions.

Chapter 449: Lamb Soup Shop
“Dong dong dong~ dong dong dong~” The woman in the white dress shook the rattle-drum in her hand, producing a rhythmic sound. After distancing herself from the man in fine robes, it only took about the time of one incense stick for the once-bulging cloth pouch on her shoulder to become noticeably deflated. All of a sudden, as she glanced across to the opposite end of the long street, the bored look on her face changed abruptly. “When did Lexiang County get such a handsome gentleman?” As she…-

Early the next morning, it was another clear, sunny day. The vendors of Lexiang County were already out setting up their stalls. The streets and alleys were filled with the enticing aroma of snacks and the calls of hawkers. On one long street, a young woman in an ivory-white dress walked gracefully along. Her beauty was astonishing. Her brows arched like distant mountains tinted with mist, her eyes sparkled like autumn water, deep and expressive, as if hiding a thousand unspoken words—or like a…

A pot of strong tea gradually faded in color. After finishing the last of it in his cup, Lei Ben stood up and said, “Mr. Gu, it’s about time. The two of us will be heading back now.” “You’ve probably not had much rest since your return,” Gu Ning’an said. “Let us see you off,” Gu Ning’an stood as well. “Heh, alright then!” When the three reached the courtyard gate, Lei Ben turned around and said, “Sir, no need to come further. We’ll visit you another day—and bring some pork…

“Exactly!” Lei Ben slapped his thigh, a radiant smile blooming across his face. “Didn’t we find out later it was all just a misunderstanding?” “Auntie Song had pulled me in to help sweep the courtyard.” “And it was during that sweeping… that I swept up my fate with Qianqian.” Hearing that, Gu Ning’an chuckled. “So your marriage was arranged by Auntie Song?” “Mhm!” Lei Ben scratched his head sheepishly. “Back then, I told Auntie Song I liked plump girls…” “And…
