- Chapter 302: The Ones Exiled to Guanzhou The paper used for testing the brush was the cheapest in the shop. Having written on it herself, Yan Yu had a sense of its quality. "Thank you, shopkeeper. I understand now. I'll definitely practice diligently in the future." She added, "This paper is whiter than the paper we make at home, and it feels a bit different to write on." "Does the young master’s family also make paper?" The shopkeeper was quite surprised. "We do, but the color isn't very…

- Chapter 299: Mooncakes Granny Rong was nothing if not multi-talented. The very next day, she whipped up two types of mooncakes for them. Red bean paste and salted egg yolk. Yan Yu stared at the mooncakes, which looked more like baked flatbreads, and fell into deep thought. Li Xuemei, however, remained calm and composed. “You probably haven’t seen these before. Your father and I grew up eating this kind. They might look plain, but the taste is just the same. Try one if you don’t believe…

- Chapter 300: The Plan Yan Huaiwen stepped out and found the village elders near the large boulder. He laid out his entire plan without holding anything back. Naturally, the old men gave him their full support. They immediately summoned Master Lu and once again revised the design of the watchtower. Master Lu listened patiently to their ideas, ran them through his mind a few times, then squatted down to sketch on the ground with a stone. After a while, he stood up and said, “I think I…

- Chapter 293: Taking Uncle on a Tour (Part 1) Let’s start with home. “Uncle, look, this is the cellar we dug ourselves. Pretty big, right? This side connects to that one,” Yan Yu said, pointing out the passage that linked the two cellars to Yan Huaiwen. Yan Huaiwen quickly noticed that the cellar had more than just one passage. He walked over and pushed aside a slanted wooden plank. It revealed an opening over half a zhang tall. “Where does this lead?” Yan Yu hadn’t expected…

- Chapter 295: Our Village Stands Alone Why was she suddenly feeling so nervous? Was Uncle trying to trick her into saying something? “Uncle…” Yan Yu called out softly. And then, silence. The kind of silence that makes your heart skip a beat. Uncle, say something already! Yan Huaiwen chuckled, his gaze sweeping across the training ground. “Xiao Er, would you be willing to give your uncle a demonstration?” Yan Yu nodded without hesitation. Of course she was willing. Thank…

- Chapter 296: The Scale of the Heart Yan Lao’er and Yan Yu had already coordinated their stories. So when Yan Yu recounted what she had seen that day, it was identical to Yan Lao’er’s version. The highest form of a lie is nine parts truth, one part falsehood. The matter of the sunken chest was a perfect example. Though father and daughter emphasized different details, the slight discrepancies only made their accounts more believable when compared side by side. Yan Huaiwen didn’t…

- Chapter 297: Three Prescriptions Yan Lao’er sneezed twice in a row. He rubbed his nose. Qi Da looked at him with concern. “Yan Er, you should wrap yourself up.” Indeed, Yan Lao’er had brought a quilt with him again on this trip. If there had been room, he would’ve brought a charcoal brazier too. It was just too useful when traveling. He didn’t care what others thought. Health came first. Once the sun went down, the breeze over the river turned chilly. “Heng’er, wrap…
