Chapter 15: Visiting to Request a Meeting As Teacher Liu flipped through the book excitedly, he suddenly paused—something wasn’t right... The ink looked freshly written, with some parts still slightly damp. The Imperial Chancellor was far away in the capital—no matter how fast a courier might be, a book couldn't be delivered in just a few months. This book shouldn’t be like this. His face twisted as he demanded, “Speak! Where did this come from?” Sun the xiucai was startled by his…- 371.6 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 14: Did You Invite the Imperial Chancellor to Copy Books? After explaining everything, Shen Xiuyan looked at the silver in his arms and let out a sob. Sigh, making money is so slow. Since he’d already handed off the sugar business, he figured he might as well go back to copying books. After all, right now, copying books was the fastest way to earn money for him. He spent several days doing it and quickly grew bored, so he started practicing calligraphy by imitating various famous…

- Chapter 13 A Beautiful Misunderstanding Perhaps the heat in his gaze was too intense—Master Su was now certain that Shen Xiuyan had been staring straight at him all along. Was this a hint? Still, given that the young man had spoken up for his daughter, he supposed it wasn’t out of the question. At worst, he wouldn’t make any money and just go through the motions. But if it helped repay a favor, then so be it. “I’m willing to give sixty percent to Young Master Shen.” Everyone stared at…

- Chapter 12: Another Act of Retaliation But in Shen Xiuyan's eyes, no one else existed. Though the room bustled with people, the only one he saw was Master Su. Master Su: “?” He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination, but why did it feel like this Young Master Shen kept glancing at him, intentionally or not? And those glances were filled with respect… and a hint of fervor… He couldn’t help stroking his beard. Could it be that he’d heard of some of his heroic deeds and admired him…

- Chapter 11: A Fondness Between Men? Shen Xiuyan nodded. “By the way, I’m also buying sugarcane—one wen for five jin. I’ll take as much as you have.” “What!” The village chief screamed again. “Are you sure it’s that unwanted sugarcane?” “I’m sure.” “Good, good, good, I’ll go spread the word right away.” Even the sugarcane no one wanted could be sold—if this news got out, people would go crazy. Not to mention that he, as the one who made this happen, would become even…

- Chapter 10: Sugar Making Success After a while of playing around with his daughter, Old Master Su's mood improved. He casually asked, "Mingyue, do you have something to talk to your father about today?" Otherwise, why would she be sitting in the front hall waiting for him? Only then did Su Mingyue remember the real reason she had come. She had come to complain! "Father, let me tell you..." "Bang—" Old Master Su angrily threw the teacup. "Scoundrel! Does he really think that the Su Family is blind,…

- Chapter 9: You Two Really Dare to Dream Su Family Front Hall. Su Mingyue gleefully admired herself in the bronze mirror, and after a while she couldn’t help but show off, “Cuicui, doesn’t this hairpin on my head look absolutely gorgeous!” Cuicui twitched the corners of her mouth, really wanting to shake her love-struck young lady awake. Which of her lady’s jewelry sets didn’t start at fifty taels? And she’d never heard her say those looked good. Now this little hairpin that cost only two…

- Chapter 8 – A Little Game Between Lovers "Pfft! Alright, no need to be like that. I didn’t mean to question you." Su Mingyue tugged at his sleeve quietly. "Where are you going next?" "Home." "Oh." Su Mingyue’s little face drooped with disappointment. "Sir, your hairpin is wrapped." The shop assistant came in with terrible timing. "That’ll be two taels of silver." "Hairpin?" Su Mingyue looked puzzled. "Shen-lang, who’s that for?" Shen Xiuyan froze. The timing of this assistant’s entrance…
