93 Doting Wife

“Please count the money to see if there’s enough, Miss Binglan.” Mr. Wang wanted to continue working with her, so he was more polite.

When the couple entered Drunken Cloud, Mr. Wang hurriedly asked someone to pour hot tea for Luo Jin’an.

Su Binglan put the money into her purse and said, “Okay, you’ve paid me adequately.”

She was beside Mr. Wang when he told someone to weigh the potatoes.

Initially, the potatoes were only a few pounds short, but Mr. Wang still paid Su Binglan the total price. She could tell he was sincere whenever he did business.

Although Su Binglan had earned 200 silver taels from selling her recipes, she still valued the 600-odd coins she received from Mr. Wang because selling the recipes was a one-time thing, while the ingredients were a long-term business. She started earning a little initially, but it would add up later.

Su Binglan put away the money and said, “All right, let’s go, Husband.”

The couple addressed each other formally in front of others and would only call each other by name whenever they were alone or with family.

Su Binglan nonchalantly gave the empty basket to Luo Jin’an and carried the basket of candied chestnuts on her back. She was stubborn and insisted on carrying them, not allowing Luo Jin’an the chance to argue.

Luo Jin’an could only carry the empty basket on his back. However, as he exited the restaurant, he coughed twice, “Cough, ahem.”

Su Binglan hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”

Luo Jin’an waved his hand and said, “It’s okay. I’m fine.”

Mr. Wang watched from the sidelines and noticed the minute details of the couples’ interactions.

After Su Binglan left, the waiter asked, “What are you looking at, Mr. Wang?”

Mr. Wang sighed, “Miss Binglan is such a good person. One look, and you can tell she dotes on her husband.”

Mr. Wang thought the couple’s interactions were novel. However, he was also envious of that outrageously handsome man. He could not describe how he felt. Still, Mr. Wang knew the couple was harmonious and that no one could get between them.

The waiter nodded and said, “Her husband doesn’t seem to be in good health, and there are scars on his face. Even then, Miss Binglan doesn’t dislike it or anything. Considering her expression, she looked quite nervous about her husband’s health. Moreover, she is quite capable.”

The waiter said Su Binglan was capable because she was the only one who had access to the potatoes and chilies.

Mr. Wang said, “So, we can’t trust those dastardly rumors.”

The waiter was a little confused as he wondered what Mr. Wang meant.

Previously, Young Master Mochu had told Mr. Wang to pay closer attention to Su Binglan. Therefore, Mr. Wang deliberately asked around. Only then did he know who Su Binglan really was.

However, some said Su Binglan was evil and that she constantly abused her husband. Still, it seemed they were only rumors, and Mr. Wang knew he should not believe them.

…

Su Binglan was concerned when Luo Jin’an coughed. She checked his temperature to ensure nothing was wrong before she heaved a sigh of relief.

“I told you to stay home. Your condition will worsen when you get tired.” Su Binglan did not talk to Luo Jin’an so much in the past, but when she saw Luo Jin’an neglecting his health, she could not help but lecture him.

Luo Jin’an felt like he was going to break Su Binglan’s heart, so he elegantly reassured her, “I’m okay, truly.” He could tell whether Su Binglan was genuinely worried about him or not.

When they arrived at the market, they saw Lin Zheng and his lackeys standing in their previous spot. Naturally, the trio brought some benches along.

Su Binglan looked at the trio admiringly and said, “Good job, boys.”

She did not think the benches were much use in the morning, but she felt they were convenient now because Luo Jin’an could sit next to them and rest.

Su Binglan could sell the candied chestnuts while Lin Zheng and his lackeys helped. Then said to Luo Jin’an, “You sit there and rest while we sell the chestnuts. We’ll go home after that.”
