Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Many gathered to discuss the Su family of Su Teng Village. Even those in the county knew about them and the village. Everyone knew the delicacies they ate originated from the Su family.
The wealthier people in the county also competed to see who could get the newest duvets from the Su family’s embroidery shop first. Everyone enjoyed the duvets’ warmth, but they were not easy to buy. Anyone who bought a duvet through their connections could show off.
Of course, it became more convenient for people to buy stinky tofu since the Su family’s carts were all around the county market. Initially, everyone thought the smell was a little bizarre, but after tasting it, they knew it was an acquired taste and enjoyed it.
Teng County was not as prosperous as Tenghe Town. Whenever the county’s people gathered, they would discuss their daily lives.
“Sister Lin, you came to buy stinky tofu too?”
“Yeah, it’s too delicious to resist. If I came late, the seller would have sold out.’
“l agree. I’ll buy a few more to satisfy my cravings.”
“By the way, do you know about cured sausage meat?” Sister Lin asked her neighbor, Liu Shizhi.
“By the way, do you know about dried sausage meat?”Madame Lin asked her neighbor, Liu Shizhi.
The latter was puzzled. “Cured sausage meat? I’ve heard of it but have never seen it before.’
She seemed to recall hearing of such a thing from a passerby as she came to the morning market to buy things. At that time, she did not pay much attention to it.
Sister Lin said, “Cured sausage meat is incredibly delicious. It goes well with rice. Although it’s a little expensive, it’s good to have some occasionally to satisfy my cravings.
“It’s a new delicacy the Su family developed. In just one bite, I can eat several mouthfuls of cured sausage with steamed buns. It’s also quite fragrant.”
“The foods the Su family makes are always delicious. Where can 1 buy the cured sausage meat?” Liu Shizhi asked anxiously.
Sister Lin was picky about her food and rarely said something was delicious. Since she said cured sausage meat was good, Liu Shizhi believed her and wanted to try it herself.
The two women’s families were exceptionally healthy and were willing to buy delicious food regularly. No matter what, Liu Shizhi felt she had to try the cured sausage meat.
Sister Lin said smilingly, “My daughter lives in Willow Village, closer to Su Teng Village. She also works in the embroidery shop, making it more convenient for her to buy such things. She bought some cured sausage meat to show her filial piety to me.
“Still, it wasn’t easy to get since the Su family sells out quickly. My daughter told me many people lined up in the morning to buy cured meats and make preorders. ”
Sister Lin said these things to hide her selfish motives. She only wanted to show off her eldest daughter.
Sister Lin’s eldest daughter had taken a fancy to a young man from Willow Village in the past, but Sister Lin had some objections about it. She felt the young man was from a rural area and that his family’s conditions were unfavorable,
However, her daughter was willing to be with the young man, and as her mother, Sister Lin could only agree. Moreover, the young man was handsome and hardworking. His parents were honest, so Sister Lin knew they would treat her daughter well.
To prove they would give Sister Lin’s daughter a good life, the young man’s parents paid Sister Lin a higher dowry. However, the neighbors gossiped about Sister Lin and her daughter, and Sister Lin felt terrible.
Still, it was not that she cared about the gossip—she was worried about her daughter. She feared her daughter would become depressed, but her daughter’s living conditions improved exponentially in just two years.
Sister Lin’s daughter birthed a healthy boy, and her in-laws and husband treated her excellently. Sister Lin could rest assured, primarily since her daughter worked at the embroidery shop, receiving two silver taels a month as her wages.
Also, Sister Lin’s son-in-law worked at the winery and earned a lot monthly.
The young man’s parents were usually at home to help care for the children. His family had plenty of land, and his parents could profit from their livestock, like pigs, chickens, and ducks.
However, since people came to them, the family did not need to leave home to profit from their livestock. Sister Lin’s daughter had a much better life than the people in the county.
Moreover, her daughter would bring her any delicious food she came across.
Now that her daughter had purchased an oxcart, her daughter and son-in-law often visited her during their days off from work.
The young couple even told Sister Lin that they had expanded their house. They also offered Sister Lin to stay there.
Since the young man worked in the Su family’s winery, he could buy wine at
an internal price. Even his father could drink wine leisurely. Therefore, Li Shi wished to speak highly about her daughter and let everyone know she lived perfectly.
Liu Shizhi was envious. ‘Your son-in-law and eldest daughter are so dutiful. They live a good life and often bring you delicious food, right?”
“That’s right. My son-in-law listens to my daughter, and her in-laws treat her well. I can rest assured as a parent.
“That’s right. Our son-in-law listens to my daughter, and our parents-in-law treat her well. As parents, we can rest assured.” Liu Shizhi sighed. She never expected to be better off in the countryside than in the city.
Sister Lin’s daughter had learned how to make dumplings from Su Binglan and then taught Sister Lin how to make them. Afterward, Sister Lin taught her neighbors to make dumplings.
Sometimes, when Sister Lin came across something delicious, she would share some with her neighbors to taste. After all, she did not need to worry about such things because her daughter and son-in-law were filial, and the man came from a good family.
In addition, Sister Lin gave some fruit wine to her family. They were genuinely grateful to her for it. They had to admit that Sister Lin had raised her daughter well.
Liu Shizhi had two daughters and a son. Her eldest daughter married into a wealthy family and could only return once a year. Moreover, being a
daughter-in-law to a wealthy family was not easy.
Initially, the neighbors even compared Sister Lin’s daughter to Liu Shizhi’s eldest daughter, saying Sister Lin’s daughter was stupid. However, the neighbors no longer dared to say such things and even began to envy Sister Lin.
Liu Shizhi thought if she wanted to match her younger daughter with someone, she would see if the other party could treat her daughter well. After all, one could not just consider a family’s influence and worldly things.
Sometimes, two people needed to get along well. Liu Shizhi felt her children could live good lives as long as they lived harmoniously.
‘Su Teng Village and Tenghe Town are pretty good.’ Liu Shizhi thought.
Then she seemed to have thought of something and said, “Right, I heard Su Teng Village is quite prosperous now since their market has groievn exponentially.”
She had never been to Sister Liu’s place but had heard many good things about it.
Sister Lin had something else to say, “My daughter and son-in-law often bring me to the market. I can confirm that it is indeed massive now. There’s a lot more good food there, and it’s fun. Foreign merchants are also frequenting
Su Teng Village’s market. It’s always so lively there.”
Liu Shizhi became increasingly envious of Sister Lin the more she listened. The two finally reached the front of the stinky tofu cart after talking.
The person selling stinky tofu recognized Sister Liu, saying, “Brother Zhou told me to give you something, Sister Lin.”
Wang Zhuo revealed a bag as he spoke. Brother Zhou’s name was Zhou Chang, Sister Lin’s son-in-law. Wang Zhou and Zhou Chang were from Willow Village, so they were familiar with each other.
Sometimes, Zhou Chang would ask Wang Zhou to give things to Sister Lin..
