The eldest daughter of a peasant family: They are all my sisters’ passers-by

Lan Wangshu hadn't figured out how to set the price yet. He was silent for a while thinking about the market situation. In this era, a whole leather cloak costs 15 taels of silver.

Her craftsmanship and design should be worth 15 taels of silver. After converting it, she spoke slowly.

"Three ounces of gold."

Zhou Xingnan raised his eyebrows, and Liu Huaian quickly returned the schoolbag.

"Miss Lan, this is too valuable. Yun An doesn't dare to accept it."

Lan Wangshu knew his situation and knew that he must be very short of money. Now, facing the three taels of gold, with a determined look and a simple heart, she was willing to help.

"Yun'an, you should accept it. Don't you still need to prepare the betrothal gifts? This schoolbag is enough. Now you should focus on preparing for the next year and don't let your fiancée wait any longer. I hope you can keep this schoolbag well and don't forget your original intention. If you really want to repay me, please pass the exam to become a scholar. People will also buy it for good luck, and I won't lose anything."

Lan Wangshu didn't know the true situation of women's marriage in this era. After all, all she had seen was the three-acre land in Cangnan Village. She still wanted to take a gamble for the woman she had never met, and hoped that Liu Huaian was someone she could trust.

She spoke sincerely, and Liu Huaian still felt that she was trying to help him. For a moment, the man felt his eyes slightly warm.

There were only a few happy events for men in this era. With this schoolbag, he would be guaranteed to start a family and would not have to worry about taking the imperial examinations.

"Thank you for your kindness today, Miss Lan. Yun Anding is trustworthy and keeps his promise. In addition to fame, I will definitely repay you if I have the chance in the future."

"You still say you are a country girl. Who can be so generous as to use so much glass? You can give it away for just three taels of gold."

Zhou Xingnan looked at Liu Huaian and was very puzzled. Why did he look like he was about to cry? He rarely said something to ease the atmosphere.

"Don't return it to me. I can afford it because the glass came from me. Don't worry, Jingyang. The glass will not be sold to the outside world."

Lan Wangshu rolled his eyes, not because he didn't want to do the glass business. First, the window paper nowadays was made very well and could fully achieve the purpose of keeping warm and preventing peeping. Second, it would be bad if someone got hurt from breaking the glass, or if it was used to intentionally hurt someone like the porcelain pieces. Even if it had nothing to do with her, it would still be a trouble.

She would only open a factory if the emperor gave the order himself, but that probably wouldn't happen. Da Zhao already had the Liulichang, so it was only a matter of time before transparent glass was produced.

"Wangshu."

He Jinyu was wearing a dark green robe, an emerald crown on her head, a gold belt around her waist, and holding a food box in her hand.

Seeing so many people, he paused slightly, walked in calmly, and put the food box on the counter.

"Jinyu."

"Jingyang."

The two men greeted each other, and Zhou Xingnan introduced Liu Huaian to him, and the three of them had a pretty good chat.

"By the way, Wangshu, this is the dish we made at Dingzhenlou. Come and try it and see if you can serve it."

"Then let's have dinner together later. I just happen to have some ideas that I want to discuss with you. Go upstairs first. I'll go cook."

"I'll have someone bring the nonsense here."

Li Yanhuan felt that it was not good for her to be the only woman here, so she chased Lan Wangshu towards the backyard, but was turned away. She squatted on the ground and drew circles in anger. What a shame for her cousin to have to ask her to come here.

When the food was served, everyone's eyes showed the same look as Lan Luochen's, or even more so.

"The glass in this building is unique enough, but I didn't expect the dishes to be so artistic."

He Jinyu stared with her eyes wide open, and she didn't know what Lan Wangshu had done. White mist rose around several small wicker boats, making it look like a dream and fascinating.

“This is an osmanthus tea meal.”

Lan Wangshu introduced it with a smile and took out the dishes from the lunch box.

"Wangshu is planning to open a restaurant?"

"Don't worry, I won't compete with Dingzhenlou for business. Yours is a place for proper dining, and mine is a place for tea and wine."

Lan Wangshu understood what he meant. She was not stupid, so how could she let her two businesses conflict with each other?

He Jinyu nodded, thinking that her idea was great. Why didn't she notice that there was still a gap in the market here before?

"There is wine. Bring me some."

Zhou Xingnan didn't understand the business stuff, but was interested in it because of the wine.

"Students in the county school are not allowed to drink alcohol, right?"

"Not in the academy, but it's OK outside the academy. The formal classes will start tomorrow, so he can stay at Jingmo tonight."

Liu Huaian explained, reached out to set the dining table, turned the glass plate on it, and exclaimed in amazement.

"elder sister."

Two little men came up the stairs, one lively and the other quiet, with very different personalities.

"He Yi, your portion is prepared in the backyard. You can choose a separate box to eat."

"Yes, Miss Blue."

Lan Wangshu closed the door and carried the twins to the chair beside her. He Jinyu naturally sat on the other side of the two children, while Li Yanhuan seemed to be hesitant to speak.
