Chapter 283: The Xiao'an Village Stall Yan Yu had prepared three pots: one for boiling eggs, one for braising them, and a spare, just in case business was too good for a single pot to keep up. That’s right—both Yan Yu and her daughter were that confident. Not once did they consider the possibility that their goods might not sell. As it turned out, the extra pot came in handy. They used it to braise tofu. Thick tofu strips were cut and tossed into the pot. Before long, it was bubbling…- 619.3 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 275: Prince Ying's Consort To act so brazenly in broad daylight—whoever did this clearly had nothing to fear. There were only two parties who could pull something like this off. Either the Consort of the Heir Apparent herself, or the household of Prince Ying, whom she was about to marry into. The former was unlikely. The latter, far more suspicious. If Prince Ying had ordered it, there would’ve been no need for such elaborate measures. Guanzhou was his fief, far from the…

- Chapter 276: A Good Official "Huaiwen and your younger brother seem to be very close," Magistrate Tian remarked with a sigh. Now that Crouching Tiger City was under lockdown, Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan, the newly appointed Household Registrars, had quickly grown familiar with their colleagues. From what he had observed, Yan Huaiwen was a man who knew how to adapt, upheld integrity, cared little for wealth, and valued promises above all. If fortune favored him in the civil exams, he would…

- Chapter 277: Eye-Opening! “So the west and south sides might be more likely. But last time, they came through the mountains, so we can’t let our guard down there either. That river by the village—my dad and I followed it downstream. It connects to Gufeng, Changping, and even reaches Guiyuan Town in Linhai Prefecture. Those places are still okay, but upstream you’ve got Longxing and Fengming. They’re border towns, just like our Crouching Tiger. The Northern Rong are used to crossing…

- Chapter 278: Yan Yu’s Little Scheme Yan Xiangheng began retracing the Young Scouts’ training route, running three laps around the village. The energetic little ones followed him the entire way, cheering him on and even taking the lead. They were more fired up than when they ran it themselves. By the time he finally completed the three laps, Yan Xiangheng was gasping for breath, unable to catch it properly. After a short rest, he moved on to the obstacle course. Jumping over the small…

- Chapter 279: Convincing Heng'er With a few people working together, washing the cart didn’t take long at all. Yan Yu chatted away animatedly as she worked, weaving a lively tale. She took the same speech she’d used to persuade Big Brother, trimmed it here and there, and repurposed it to convince Sister Daya. Yan Lao’er just chuckled and let her be. Watching his daughter so full of energy, her little mouth chattering non-stop, it was no wonder people found her so endearing. Yan Xiangheng…

- Chapter 271: Letting Go Yan Yu was nearly scrubbed bald again. A freshly washed, pink-cheeked little girl was presented before Madam Cui. “Oh my, whose darling little one is this? Come, let Auntie dote on you a bit.” Madam Cui’s expression softened, and she picked up a long towel draped nearby. Pulling the little girl into her arms, she gently began drying her hair. After a few affectionate strokes, she handed the big baby back to her mother. “Sister-in-law, better let you do it. My…

- Chapter 273: The Reward Silver Li Xuemei said, “You know how our village folks are. If no one takes the lead, who dares to touch anything from the Northern Rong? Go explain it to them clearly. If it happens again, they’ll know what’s coming.” “As for why no one’s taking the corpses to claim the reward, I have an idea.” Yan Lao’er and Yan Yu both turned to look at her. “Our family’s donkey was brought back. Just the cheapest one, but Village Chief Luo personally delivered…
