Huang Gonggong had nothing to do during the week, so he asked Fang Erwa to bring back a set of Gobang from the town yesterday. Today, he brought the Gobang to Grandpa Deng's house to teach him how to play.

"Eunuch Huang, you really know how to pick people! You even dragged my Grandpa Deng to play Gobang with you..."

"Haha, Master Imperial Master really loves to joke. I just feel that I have a connection with Master Deng."

"Xiao Xiao is here..." Just as Grandpa Deng was concentrating on the chessboard, thinking hard about how to make a move, Kong Xiaoxiao's arrival broke the deadlock. He quickly put down the black piece in his hand, stood up, and greeted Kong Xiaoxiao with a smile.

"Grandpa Deng, what do you think of this Go game? Is it fun?" Kong Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

"Very good, but it's too profound. I'm old and useless. I can't be better than Eunuch Huang." Grandpa Deng said dejectedly.

"Take your time, you've only been in contact for one day, don't be anxious!" Kong Xiaoxiao quickly comforted.

Kong Xiaoxiao talked to Eunuch Huang about serious matters: "Eunuch Huang, I will go to Beijing during the Mid-Autumn Festival. You don't have to leave alone tomorrow. You can come back with me."

"That's great, but the Mid-Autumn Festival is in five days, and we definitely won't be able to make it back in time," Eunuch Huang asked doubtfully.

"You don't have to worry about this. You will know when the time comes." Kong Xiaoxiao smiled mysteriously and deliberately kept the secret.

After playing Go with the two of them for a while at Grandpa Deng's house, Kong Xiaoxiao went home humming a little tune.

Not long after, Uncle Liang brought a group of people and delivered fifty bunk beds made for the soldiers.

Kong Xiaoxiao was very happy and asked Fang Erwa to give Uncle Liang two hundred taels.

In addition to paying for the beds, the remaining two hundred taels were used to repair the accommodation rooms for the soldiers in the mansion.

The daily order volume of the tofu shop in Kongjia Village has now stabilized, so Kong Xiaoxiao decided to teach everyone the method of making yuba before going to Beijing.

Because the production of yuba takes a very long time, if it encounters bad weather after it is made, it needs to be dried to be properly preserved.

The next morning, just after daybreak, Kong Xiaoxiao got up early, had a quick breakfast, and went straight to the tofu shop.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you here? Is there anything wrong?" Kong Feng was busy shipping the goods and was surprised to see Kong Xiaoxiao coming.

To be honest, Xiaoxiao has nothing to do now, so she won’t go to the tofu shop.

"Brother Feng, I'm here today to teach you how to make other derivative products of tofu. Our tofu shop now has stable orders every day, and it's time to introduce some new things."

"Great! We can complete all the orders for today in a while." Kong Feng was delighted.

Just after a quarter past noon, all the tofu orders for the day had been fulfilled.

Kong Xiaoxiao stepped into the tofu shop's operation room and explained to everyone why she came here today.

As soon as everyone heard that they were going to try to make new products, they became excited.

Normally, it would be enough to just leave behind a few aunties who were responsible for cooking soy milk.

Knowing that there was something new to learn, everyone in the tofu shop was reluctant to leave and gathered around.

Kong Xiaoxiao also followed them.

"The tofu I'm going to teach you today is not just any tofu! It's called yuba. Generally speaking, after grinding one pound of beans, you can make half a pound of yuba! So, the final selling price of our yuba will definitely be higher than that of tofu."

Kong Xiaoxiao gave a brief introduction and then started to work.

"Making yuba is actually very simple. First, boil the soy milk until it boils. Then we will find a thin film floating on the soy milk. When this film is formed, use chopsticks to gently pick it up, and you will get a piece of yuba! Then dry these yuba, and they can be preserved for a long time.

When the production of yuba reaches a certain level, we can start selling it. As for the sales, just leave it to Uncle Ziqi! Whether it is pre-ordering or selling after the goods are available, let him handle it himself. "

After finishing the basic work in the village, Kong Xiaoxiao went to the shop in the town again.

"Master, you are here." Wang Xiaofeng smiled happily.

"Sister, sister, Honghong misses you." Xiaohong rushed out.

Kong Xiaoxiao picked up Honghong and carried her into the lobby. Wang Xiaofeng and Aunt Wan followed behind.

Kong Xiaoxiao sat on a chair, put Honghong on her lap, looked at Wang Xiaofeng and Aunt Wan and said, "I will go to the capital during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I came to tell you that I will be away for a long time this time. Are you willing to go to the capital with me?"

When Wang Xiaofeng heard about going to the capital, his eyes lit up for less than a second, then dimmed again: "Ah, Master, I also want to go to the capital, but my wife is pregnant, so I have to stay in Ping'an Town to look after the shop and accompany my wife."

His focus now must be on spending time with his wife.

"Honghong and I will definitely follow Xiaoxiao," said Aunt Wan with a smile.

"Okay, then Wang Xiaofeng, you stay here, and Auntie, you pack your luggage. I'll ask my second brother to pick you up to the village the day after tomorrow, and we'll set off from the village."

After giving the instructions, Kong Xiaoxiao went shopping in the town again.

Considering the number of people coming to Beijing this time, she specially bought two horse-drawn carriages.

Her spiritual power has increased a lot now, and the power of the talisman has also become stronger. Then everyone can sit in the carriage and use the flying talisman.

She no longer carries everyone flying in the air like before.

Five days passed quickly, and tonight is the palace banquet.

Kong Xiaoxiao prepared to set off in the afternoon.

The people who came to Beijing this time included: Aunt Wan, Honghong, Fang Erwa, Momo, Eunuch Huang, Nanny Tian, ​​and herself.

Brother He was unwilling to go to Beijing, and Tadpole also wanted to seize the time to learn to read and write, so the two of them stayed at home.

The four great guards also wanted to go to the capital with her, but Kong Xiaoxiao asked them to finish their studies at the academy first, and then take the flying talisman to the Imperial Master's Mansion to find her.

Mid-Autumn Festival, Imperial Palace in Beijing.

As night fell, the palace was brightly lit, a scene of prosperity. Preparations for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet were in full swing.

The palace maids, dressed in colorful clothes, were busy shuttling between the palaces, holding a variety of delicacies and fine wines in their hands.

The hall was decorated magnificently, with red candles shining brightly and gold flowers and silver ornaments sparkling.

"His Majesty has arrived..." Following the hoarse voice of the chief eunuch, Eunuch Su, the emperor, dressed in a dragon robe and looking majestic, walked into the banquet hall followed by concubines, princes and princesses.

Civil and military officials and their families all knelt down and paid their respects.

"Long live my emperor, long live long live..."

"Gentlemen, please stand up. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. I hereby allow you not to discuss state affairs but only talk about love and romance. Please take your seats."
