Li Xiaoran explained, “That’s right, a fief! Mother, the emperor issued a decree to my husband and said that he can choose a town as his fief!”

Zhao Xiu nodded, as if she understood, and didn’t say anything else.

In Zhao Xiu’s understanding, the prince did have a lot of land and assets.

Seeing that her sister had arrived, Li Xiaoqing ran out after cooking the last bowl of sliced noodles.

“Sister, why are you here?”

“I came to see how you’re running the shop!” Li Xiaoran teased.

“Are you satisfied now that you’ve seen it?” Li Xiaoqing asked.

Li Xiaoran said, “I’m satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied! You’re indeed quite impressive!”

Zhao Sisi ran out and called out, “Aunt! Cousin!”

Although she was disappointed in her second brother and sister-in-law, Zhao Xiu couldn’t vent her anger on the child.

At this moment, Zhao Xiu nodded in greeting.

Li Xiaoran looked over and nodded with a smile. “Have you learned how to make sliced noodles?”

Zhao Sisi looked at Zhao Xiu in embarrassment and then at Li Xiaoran.

“I’ve already learned it! Actually, I learned it after half a month. Now, I’m making sliced noodles with Xiao Qing to sell!”

Seeing that the little girl had been looking at her, Zhao Xiu said, “Your parents and brother have already come to apologize to me today! So don’t worry, just work hard in the shop!”

Zhao Sisi heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Zhao Xiu’s words.

To be honest, Zhao Sisi had been on tenterhooks all day, for fear that her aunt would be angry and chase her away.

After all, her mother and brother were in the wrong. It was only right for her aunt to be angry.

“Thank you, Aunt!” Zhao Sisi said gratefully.

After that, the little girl went to work happily.

Li Xiaoran praised, “Mother, you did the right thing by not bringing personal grudges to the workplace!”

Zhao Xiu said, “Sigh, I also think that this girl is a good person! Ever since she came to the shop to work, she has been diligent and hasn’t slacked off at all! I wonder which young brat will be lucky enough to marry this girl!” With that, Zhao Xiu sighed.

Zhao Xiu said it as an offhand remark, but the listener took it to heart.

Mao Dao, who had just walked out, paused. Then, he looked at Liu Sisi, who was busy in the shop, and pondered over something.

Ever since Liu Sisi came, Mao Dao couldn’t help but take care of this shy but kind girl.

Previously, he hadn’t thought anything about it, but now that he heard Zhao Xiu’s words, Mao Dao felt that marrying Liu Sisiwasn’t a bad idea.

Most importantly, he liked Liu Sisi.

Thinking of this, Mao Dao’s heart burned with desire and he planned to ask Liu Sisi.

Yuan Cheng also ran out and came to Li Xiaoran’s side with Mao Dao.

Yuan Cheng asked with a smile, “Madam, you’re here? Is Brother Luo Cheng back too?”

“Yes, we’re all back! It’s just that Luo Cheng has something to do elsewhere, so only my mother and I came over to take a look!” Li Xiaoran replied with a smile, “I haven’t seen you two for a while. The two of you seem to have changed! ”

After Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao exchanged looks, they smiled awkwardly.

Ever since they came to the shop to work for Li Xiaoran, the two of them had been eating well.

As time passed, their nutrition was replenished.

Mao Dao was better off than Yuan Cheng. After all, his family doted on him, so he was better fed.

However, Yuan Cheng had been malnourished for a long time, so he looked thin and sallow.

Now that the two of them had caught up on their nutrition, their appearances had changed.

The two boys were very handsome now.

As a result, some young female customers who were eating in the shop would steal glances at these two of them from time to time.

More and more started to take a fancy to Mao Dao and the matchmaker kept visiting.

Unfortunately, Mao Dao didn’t relent and didn’t like any one of them.

Yuan Cheng also had many proposals, but Yuan Cheng felt that with his current situation, he wasn’t suitable for marriage.

He didn’t want to delay anyone, so he refused.

Yuan Cheng replied with a smile, “I ate well, so my health improved a lot!”

Zhao Xiu teased, “Xiaoran, these two boys have become popular with girls now! There are girls in the nearby village who secretly came over to ask about their preferences and family background.”

Mao Dao only smiled, since he felt that there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

Yuan Cheng blushed bashfully.

“Mother, stop teasing them!” With that, Li Xiaoran looked at Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao. “The two of you can go ahead! I’m just here to take a look. I’ll leave in a while!”

Mao Dao and Yuan Cheng nodded and entered the shop together.

Kang Zheng and Wen Lu had been busy. More and more people came to eat fast food, so it wasn’t that the two of them didn’t see Li Xiaoran, but their hands were tied.

Li Xiaoran went in to look at the dishes and then at the dining table where the guests were sitting. In the end, she came to the two of them in satisfaction.

“Thank you for your hard work during this period of time!”

Kang Zheng smiled when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“It’s not hard work at all! My time here has been the best period in my life. Not only do I have a wife, but I also have the motivation to work!”

When Wen Lu heard her husband’s words, she nodded. “That’s right! When I see people coming and going, I feel more and more motivated!”

At this moment, Gao Chen, who had finished cooking the last dishes in the kitchen, looked at Li Xiaoran and said, “Why aren’t you praising my cooking?”

Li Xiaoran affirmed with a smile, “Yes, yes, yes. Master Gao, you’re the best chef. After all, the customers are very satisfied with your fast food!” When Gao Chen heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he smiled.

After sizing up Li Xiaoran, Gao Chen suddenly said, “Did you encounter something when you went to the capital? Why do you look a little more haggard than before?!”

Li Xiaoran replied, “I encountered some things, but they were all resolved! I don’t like living in the capital!”

Li Xiaoran’s words brought back some unpleasant memories for Gao Chen.

Gao Chen said, “That’s right. The capital isn’t a good place, so it’s better not to go there in the future!”

Li Xiaoran said, “I think so too! After going once, I don’t want to go again! I feel mentally exhausted!”

Gao Chen suddenly said, “You’ll be even more mentally exhausted in the future! I don’t know if I should sav that you have good for sight and know how to

choose a good man, or that you’re unlucky to have chosen such a man!”
