Translator: Endlessæantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shen Qiuhui told his cook all of Su Binglan’s favorite dishes. He was thrilled that his niece had finally visited him. He was so excited that he wanted to tell everyone that he had found his sister and that Su Binglan was his sister’s daughter.

However, he knew his sister did not want to restore her status as the Shens’ daughter. Therefore, he could only treat his niece twice as well.

Shen Qiuhui then gathered the whole family and told them, “This is Miss Su, my niece. She shall be the most respected young lady in our family. I will punish anyone who dares to disrespect or ignore her.”

The rest of the family knew Shen Qiuhui’s temperament and methods. If not for that, he would not have stood out from the many descendants and taken control of the family.

Shen Qiuhui was the family head and had all the power. No one would dare to question or object to his words. Still, everyone wondered about Su Binglan’s identity.

‘She’s Master Qiuhui’s niece? Is she the child one of his siblings left behind? But didn’t Master Qiuhui’s siblings bully him back then? Why would he value this young lady so much?’

Some of the elders had only heard about Shen Qiuhui having a good relationship with his eldest sister during childhood. However, Shen Qiuhua had allegedly died in a fire back then. The family wondered if Shen Qiuhua

had survived.

Moreover, Shen Qiuhui seemed to be looking for his eldest sister all these years. The family could not tell if he had found Shen Qiuhua or not.

‘Is this Miss Su the daughter of that young lady from before? That would make the most sense.’

Everyone had their guesses and suspicions, but none dared to voice them.

“Of course, Master Quihui,” everyone replied respectfully. After all, they had to follow the head of the family’s orders. They knew how cruel he could be if necessary and did not dare to disobey him.

Shen Mohen was inspecting one of the family’s businesses when he found out Su Binglan had come to the capital. He was so excited that he dropped his booklet and went straight home on horseback.

As soon as he got home, he exclaimed, “Cousin Binglan? Cousin Binglan!’

The family was stunned when they heard his excited voice. Shen Mohen usually had a stern expression and an indifferent tone, They had never seen him so ecstatic.

Simultaneously, they realized Su Binglan held a special place in Young Master Mohen and Master Qiuhui’s hearts.

Su Binglan’s lips twitched when she heard Shen Mohen’s voice. She said, “It seems Cousin Mohen is back.”

Shen Qiuhui smiled, “Your cousin hasn’t stopped thinking about you since we left Su Teng Village. He keeps asking me when you’d visit. Of course, he’s excited now that you’re finally here.”

Shen Mohen ran into the house and saw Su Binglan, saying, “Cousin Binglan, you finally came! ”

Su Binglan said, “l have some things to do here, so I might have to trouble you and your father to help me.”

Shen Mohen said, “Come on, there’s no trouble at all! I’m just excited to see you!”

Shen Qiuhui added, “He’s right, Binglan. Just tell us what you want us to do, and we’ll do it. We know it was a long journey for you to get here. We want you to have fun, okay?”

He knew what his niece was capable of and her relationship with Prince Ruozhu. Shen Qiuhui suspected that what Su Binglan planned to do was very important.

However, he did not want his niece to tire herself out and would help her whenever possible.

Su Binglan shook her head, saying, “l need to handle certain things alone.

Don’t worry about that, okay? By the way, how’s business here, Uncle Qiuhui?”

Shen Qiuhui and his son took out the account book. One of them said,

“Business has been booming since we received the goods from Su Teng Village and sold them here.

“Our stores were losing money before we started selling the goods from Su Teng Village. Our daily income can rival our sales over the past several months.” Shen Qiuhui was not exaggerating.

Su Binglan could tell just by looking at the account book.

Shen Mohen said, “We have a restaurant here, too. Your dishes have become its signature dish. Many people came here because of your reputation, Cousin Binglan. Some even make reservations through their connections.

“Not only are the tofu dishes popular, but the instant noodles and spicy cured sausages are, too. They’re in short supply because of the high demand.”

Shen Mohen wanted to buy more products, but the factories in Su Teng Village could only produce so much.

Su Binglan said, “You can sell these in limited quantities. We can only sell a few hundred packets of noodles and a portion of spicy sausages in a day. Each person can only buy a limited serving. That way, others will have a chance to taste our food.

“My uncle plans to build another cured meats shop in the prefecture to make it easier for everyone to purchase his goods.”

Since these items were so popular, Su Fengchen wanted to increase production. Opening a factory in the prefecture was also for the prefecture’s development.

Su Binglan, Shen Mohen, and Shen Qiuhui discussed business as they ate. Shen Mohen said, “The various forces in the capital are well-informed. You’ll soon attract the attention of many prominent families. They’ll start inviting you over so you can decide on whether or not you want to accept them.” Shen Qiuhui added, “You’re free to do as you please, Binglan.”

Su Binglan felt warm inside. ‘You don’t have to worry about me. I’ve made many preparations before coming here. It’s okay if people want to meet me. I think it’s time for me to do that.”

‘It’s time to settle some scores.’

“Uncle Qiuhui, Cousin Mohen, I want to deal with someone high up. You don’t have to worry because I’ll protect you.”

Shen Qiuhui said, “You can do as you please. Just tell me if you need my help, okay? You can even utilize my family’s power. Here’s our token.”

He passed his family token to his niece as he spoke. However, Su Binglan shook her head. “It’s okay. I don’t need the token, but I need to know about Han Yueting. The more details you can provide, the better.”

The Shens had a network of contacts and information on someone like Han

Yueting. Shen Mohen said, “I’ll give you his information right away.”

Su Binglan looked through the information after dinner. Shen Mohen said,

“Then Hans was originally the last of the six families. However, they used

their power from the loyal family after Han Yueting got engaged to Princess Liuwu to climb the ranks.

“Han Yueting has begun to move into the palace. He’s also close to the Crown

Prince now..”
