74 Is She the Best?

Lin Zheng knew Su Binglan was willing to take them in. The more he thought about what his boss said last night, the more he admired her.

Su Binglan’s martial arts skills were terrific, and she said what others dared not. Meanwhile, Lin Zheng was clever, and after giving it some thought, he felt that his boss was great. He knew he could greatly benefit if he followed her.

Unbeknownst to Lin Zheng, his decision led him to live out his true meaning and find his future value. No one dared to look down on him at that time. Even his father became proud of him. Of course, that only happened in the future.

The trio hurriedly said, “We will do you proud!”

!!

As Lin Zheng spoke, he rushed forward to help Su Binglan put the cart away. His actions were prudent.

Li Shi and Zhou Shan also helped. They even brought two horses for Su Binglan and Liu Yinyin to sit on.

Soon after Su Binglan sat down, someone approached her stall.

“Miss, is this tofu? I could smell its fragrance from afar.”

“Yeah, we’ve never heard of it before, so we came to check it out. I-I also heard you’re giving free samples?”

“It’s also six coins per pound, cheaper than the candied chestnuts you sold last night!”

“Yeah, we’re the ones who bought your candied chestnuts last night. My children loved it and told us to buy more.”

…

Everyone was talking to Su Binglan in a flurry.

Su Binglan was beautiful, and her smile was an affinity with others. Everyone looked at her and felt that she was pleasing to the eye. They were all willing to talk to her as often as possible.

Su Binglan said, “Oh, so you also came to buy some candied chestnuts last night, is that right, Miss? I will sell more chestnuts tonight, but my tofu is even more delicious! I will cut some so everyone will have a piece to sample.”

Su Binglan cut some tofu for everyone as she spoke, “Here you go. Tofu is nutritious, and you can use it in your cooking too. You can put it in your egg soup and vegetable soup. It’ll be delicious no matter how you cook it.”

“You can also make buns with them. Whatever your stomach desires. If you have fish at home, you can add some tofu to it and make an exquisite dish. You can all buy some for cooking if you’d like.”

…

Su Binglan could convince anyone of anything whenever she spoke.

The townsfolk who tasted the tofu couldn’t stop praising it.

“It tastes very fragrant. Just like meat!”

“It’s soft and melts in your mouth.”

“This is good stuff.”

“Which family are you from, Miss? You’re a genius for making tofu and candied chestnuts.”

Su Binglan smiled when she heard the townsfolk’s praises. They began to buy tofu as they spoke.

“I’ll take a pound, so I can eat it when I get home!”

Su Binglan smiled and replied, “Okay, wait a moment. I’ll weigh some.”

“Give me two pounds, Miss!”

“Me too, Miss! I need more because I have many mouths to feed at home. I-I’ll take five pounds!”

…

Many people surrounded Su Binglan’s stall because she gave out free samples. Some only wanted to taste, not buy it. However, they couldn’t resist buying a kilogram’s worth when they tasted it.

Lin Zheng and his lackeys were perceptive as they silently helped on the sidelines. They help their boss pack the tofu and hand them to happy customers.

Some townsfolk even looked at Su Binglan and asked, “I wonder, are you Su Binlan from Su Teng Village?”

A servant girl looked at Su Binglan and felt she looked familiar. After a moment, she realized she did recognize Su Binglan.

Su Binglan admitted, “Yes, I’m Su Binglan from Su Teng Village.”

When the townsfolk heard Su Binglan’s words, they realized they knew her all along.

“Y-You’re that so-called top-notch girl?! The lazy one?!”
