The next morning, the sun was high in the sky, emitting dazzling light. Lu Tingyan and Jun Moyuan woke up early, in a good mood. The two quickly got themselves ready and prepared to embark on the journey to the town to buy food.

Lu Tingyan was wearing a light blue dress, with the hem of her skirt fluttering gently, like a fairy descending from the earth. She had two cute braids, a smile as bright as a flower, and she was full of energy and vigor. Jun Moyuan was still wearing the snow-white robe, with an upright posture and an elegant temperament like a fairy. There was a gentle breath in his eyes, which made people feel extremely at ease.

"Brother Yuan, let's go!" Lu Tingyan excitedly pulled Jun Moyuan's hand, with anticipation gleaming in her eyes.

Jun Moyuan smiled and nodded, looked at Lu Tingyan tenderly, and said softly, "Okay, let's go." He gently held Lu Tingyan's small hand, as if protecting a precious pearl.

After a while, they drove a fine carriage and slowly drove into the bustling town. The town was bustling with people coming and going. There were all kinds of shops displaying a wide variety of goods, which made people dazzled.

"Brother Yuan, let's go buy some food first." Lu Tingyan pointed to a rich grain store in front and said impatiently.

Jun Moyuan smiled slightly and nodded gently, "Okay, I'll listen to you." He took Lu Tingyan into the grain store, and the store was filled with the aroma of grains.

Lu Tingyan and Jun Moyuan came to the Fengyu Grain Store, looked at the sign hanging at the door, and walked in. As soon as they entered the store, a clerk came up to greet them enthusiastically.

"Miss Lu, what would you like to buy in our store today?" the clerk asked with a smile.

Lu Tingyan smiled sweetly and answered crisply, "Young man, may I ask if your shopkeeper Huang is here?"

"Yes, Miss Lu, please wait a moment, I will call the shopkeeper out right away." After saying this, the waiter turned and walked towards the inner room.

After a while, Manager Huang came out and saw Lu Tingyan and said with a smile on his face, "Miss Lu, what do you need my help with this time?"

Lu Tingyan smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Huang, we are old acquaintances. This time I want to buy 50 stones of refined rice and flour each. I wonder what the price is for Shopkeeper Huang..."

Hearing what Lu Tingyan said, Shopkeeper Huang laughed and said, "Since Miss Lu has said so, we will definitely give you the best price! How about this, the price per catty is two cents less than before, what do you think?"

Lu Tingyan was very satisfied after hearing this and said happily: "Manager Huang is so straightforward! Then I'd like to trouble you to have these grains delivered to No. 109, Hutong in the south of the town. Thank you, Manager Huang."

"No problem, don't worry, Miss Lu!" Shopkeeper Huang nodded, then told the clerk to arrange the delivery.

Jun Moyuan looked at Lu Tingyan's serious expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly. He found that she was always confident and decisive when dealing with things, and he admired this temperament very much.

Soon, the staff prepared the food and neatly stacked the bags of food on the cart, ready to be delivered to the designated location.

"Miss Lu, the total is seventy-five taels." The waiter quoted the price.

Lu Tingyan paid the money readily, and then said to the waiter, "Please help us deliver these grains to the alley in the south of the town."

The waiter quickly responded, "Okay, Miss Lu, don't worry, I will deliver it." After that, he pushed the cart away.

Lu Tingyan thought for a moment, and then said to Shopkeeper Huang: "Shopkeeper Huang, the amount of grain I need is relatively large, and it will be delivered every half a month. Each time, it will be based on today's standards. I will give you 300 taels of silver as a deposit first. If it is not enough, we will settle the bill later."

"Don't worry, Miss Lu, this matter will definitely be handled for you." Shopkeeper Huang smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then thank you, Manager Huang. We have something to do so we'll leave first." After Lu Tingyan thanked Manager Huang politely, she turned around and left with Jun Moyuan.

"Miss Lu, take care!" Shopkeeper Huang said goodbye warmly from behind.

Lu Tingyan and Jun Moyuan walked out of the grain store and continued to stroll around the town.
