Song Yi was curious and puzzled along the journey back to Su Teng Village as he listened to Su Wenwu. He could not wait to get there and see all the changes in the village that Su Wenwu had told him about.

However, he felt a slight sourness in his heart as he listened. “Wenwu, I’m jealous I don’t have a sister like yours.”

Su Wenwu did not feign humbleness—instead, he said proudly, “I have a pretty

and bright younger sister, don’t I? She’s such a capable person.”

These words pierced Song Yi’s heart since he wanted a sister like Su Binglan. He hurriedly said, “Stop it. If you continue, I’ll want my parents to give me a younger sister even more.”

When Song Yi mentioned his parents, it diverted Su Wenwu’s attention. He said, “My father’s foot got severely injured, too. He couldn’t walk back then, and the doctor said he couldn’t do anything to help my father. However, my father can walk and run like normal now that he has recovered.”

Song Yi’s entire body trembled upon hearing those words. After gradually regaining his senses, his eyes widened as he thought, ‘Did I hear that right? How did his father recover from such a severe foot injury?

Song Yi could not believe it. He was so excited that he wanted to say something, but his lips trembled as he struggled to compose a sentence. After a while, he finally asked, “Did I mishear you, Wenwu? Your father’s foot has healed?”

When the two close friends started their journey to the bodyguard agency in the past, they would chat about their families and homes whenever they missed them.

Song Yi had heard about Su Fengmao’s severe foot injury when the older man moved goods at the dock. Su Wenwu also said no one could treat his father’s foot, even if they went to a professional doctor.

Mr. Song had also injured his foot, but it was from a fall. It was severe, and he could not recover, causing him to develop a limp.

Su Wenwu heard Song Yi’s excitement and understood the reason behind it. “Don’t worry, Song Yi. I’ll ask my sister about that when we get back. She might be able to heal your father’s foot.

Su Wenwu was not as knowledgeable as his sister and did not know how severe Mr. Song’s foot injury was. In his heart, he felt his sister was omnipotent and could heal many people.

However, he knew not to say that, as he did not want to set his sister up for failure. Therefore, he said he would ask his sister about it first. Even so, it ignited hope in Song Yi’s heart.

‘My family’s life will improve if my father’s foot can recover, and he can start a proper business.’

“Thank you, Wenwu.”

There was no such thing as thanks between brothers, but Song Yi did not know what else to do besides thank his close friend. Not only did Su Wenwu save him once, but he was also helping him now.

Song Yi had nothing else he could do to repay Su Wenwu besides work hard for him.

While riding the horse to Su Teng Village, Su Wenwu told Song Yi, sitting behind him, ‘You can thank me if your father’s foot recovers.”

“All right,” Song Yi said.

The two arrived at Su Teng Village while chatting. Song Yi saw many people building houses in the distance when they passed a piece of land. The buildings looked massive and took up most of the land. However, the buildings looked different from traditional houses.

Surprised, Song Yi asked, “Wenwu, what are those people doing over there?”

“Oh, that’s the embroidery shop they’re building,” Su Wenwu answered, “That’s the embroidery shop my sister will run soon. The workers will finish building it in two days.”

“An embroidery shop? Why is it so big?”

Su Wenwu nodded. “I guess it is big, but you haven’t seen the tofu factory yet.

That building is massive, and it’s in the village behind my family’s house.”

Walking alongside Song Yi made Su Wenwu recall the past. That was why he sometimes felt the changes he had witnessed were unreal. His heart ached when he thought about how hard it was for his family back then.

“I can’t wait to see it!” Song Yi had to suppress his curiosity. He wanted to fly to Su Teng Village to see what it looked like.

“You’ll see it soon enough.”

When the duo arrived at the village entrance, they got off the horse and walked in together. They took the road north of the village and saw a few oxcarts moving in.

Song Yi looked at these carriages and was stunned. If Su Wenwu had not told him this was Su Teng Village and it looked like this, he would have thought he was in a bustling town as he could already see a few oxcarts.

“Your village is so rich now? Does everyone have an oxcart?” Song Yi was amazed.

“No, they’re here to collect their tofu products,” Su Wenwu said, “It might be a delivery day, so many people are here to collect their goods.”

Some of the oxcarts heading out passed by Song Yi, and he could smell a fragrance from them. He could not describe it, but he knew it smelled good. He gulped his saliva from hunger despite himself.

His family could only afford two daily meals, one in the morning and one in the evening, so Song Yi was always hungry. That was all they could eat since there was not enough food at home.

Therefore, Song Yi got hungry after smelling the delicious fragrance. Still, he said nothing.

It was almost noon when he followed Su Wenwu into the village. He could see the older villagers gathering in twos and threes, sitting on folding stools and sunbathing smilingly.

Song Yi was even more surprised. He felt that the mental state of the Su Teng villagers differed from that of his village. Even when the Northern Mountain villagers went to sit under the sun to chat, they would have worried looks about them.

However, everyone in Su Teng Village wore dazzling smiles that radiated hope.

“Your village is so much different than before, Wenwu.” Song Yi could feel how lively Su Teng Village was. He could feel the aura of life as he looked at everything around him.

‘So, this is what it’s like to have a good life.’

“Yeah, everyone’s lives have improved, so they’re much happier now.”

Everyone’s current mood had shifted from before as they could eat their fill without worry, wear warm clothes, and do proper jobs. The Su family was also doing well, so Su Wenwu had no worries and could do his work peacefully.

Song Yi was even more shocked when he saw the Su family’s mansion-like house and the tofu factory behind it.

Su Binglan hired six more people after her interviews. The six new workers went into the factory with Shen Qiuhua, and she taught them how to make tofu when the flowers bloomed.

By noon, Shen Qiuhua had already brought everyone to make stinky tofu.

Su Binglan went home after finishing her work. She sorted everyone’s interview list in her study and considered the most suitable candidates to work in the embroidery shop.

However, she started to prepare lunch immediately after as she had to go to town in the afternoon. At that moment, Su Wenwu brought Song Yi to the house and introduced him to Su Binglan.

Su Binglan said smilingly, “You should have lunch with us since you’re my

third brother’s close friend. I’ll tell you about the stinky tofu after lunch..”
