Chapter 137: That Person Who Just Passed By Taoyuan County, Shiwei Restaurant. Bai Tian lifted the curtain of the private room on the second floor and looked down at the diners below. Many of them had only ordered tea, spending just three copper coins to listen to the storyteller’s tales. He nodded in satisfaction.

Chapter 136: The Mu Family, A Lineage of Loyalty and Valor The Mu Family Mansion was shrouded in a heavy, indescribable sense of oppression. Night had fallen, yet the estate remained brightly lit. Nearly all the women of the household were gathered in the courtyard of Yishui Pavilion. At the front sat the Old Madam1, her fingers slowly turning a string of prayer beads, betraying the unease in her heart. Inside that room lay the wife of their fifth son2.

Chapter 134: As Mom and Dad Would Say, Is This What They Call a Slap in the Face1? Lunch at the private school today was steamed buns and vegetable porridge. Each child got two large buns, but for Bai Yunqi... He wanted three. Bai Yunxing glanced at his older brother, then silently stood guard over the buns for his younger siblings. After spending so much time together, he wasn’t blind. Fortunately, he didn’t have to stand guard for long before the two little ones came back. “If…
