After traveling through time, she went to practice her way of making money

At this moment, a curious question suddenly came from the crowd: "But speaking of it, have you ever thought about how this tofu pudding is cooked?"

Before he finished speaking, someone next to him interrupted and said, "Hey, I heard those little brats from the Su family mention it. They said that Mr. Su accidentally found this secret recipe from an ancient book."

When everyone heard this, they were immediately excited and asked eagerly: "Oh? So that's the case, then what book is it from?"

Unfortunately, everyone present shook their heads, indicating that they did not know. One of them sighed helplessly, "Alas, we are a bunch of illiterate people, how can we understand the sage books that scholars read!"

While Deng Qi Yue was busy with his work with swift hands, he also took the time to chat with the people around him: "Hey, let me tell you something. I bought a store for our younger sister a while ago. It's right next to Tianjia Lane. When you are free in the future, you can go and try the tofu pudding she makes herself!" His words were full of satisfaction and pride.

Hearing this, the people around began to whisper:

"Oh, so that's how it is. With such a capable brother from my mother's family to help me, no wonder I chose to open a store here..."

"Yes, this Mrs. Su is so lucky! With such support, I believe her life will get better and better in the future."

Originally, everyone was a little curious and confused about the situation of Su Yu's family, but with Deng Qiyue's explanation, their attention immediately shifted to the newly opened tofu pudding shop, and all the previous speculations gradually dissipated. At this moment, Deng Qiyue did not stop his actions, still concentrating on organizing the items in the store, and silently praying and blessing for his sister's future in his heart.

Although the shop that Deng Qiyue rented was not located in Jinzhong Street, the most prosperous and noisy area in the county, where the largest flow of people was, its location was also quite good. More importantly, it only took a short walk from here to Tianshuijing Lane where they lived, and it would take about a cup of tea to get there.

This rented shop has three storefronts, a small yard at the back, and several houses. The kitchen is fully equipped with stoves and a well in the yard. It is indeed a rare shop.

According to Deng Qiyue's idea: "You are running more than just a business. More shop space will allow you to better display your talents." He considered it very carefully and hoped to provide his sister with more convenience and development opportunities.

Su Shikuan looked at Deng Qiyue curiously and asked puzzledly: "Uncle Qi, are you no longer going to take care of the business yourself?"

Deng Qiyue smiled slightly and replied softly: "Of course I am still doing business, just not in this shop."

Su Shikuan became more and more curious and asked, "What kind of business is so special that you don't even need to stay in the shop?" He was full of questions, and Su Shirong beside him was also full of doubts. However, Deng Qiyue didn't seem to intend to satisfy their curiosity. He kept a mysterious smile and didn't explain further.

Su Shian still had some doubts in his heart, so he continued to ask, "Seventh Uncle, if our family opens a store, will it have a negative impact on Dad's status as a scholar and my brothers' future participation in the imperial examinations?"

Uncle Seven smiled and patiently explained, "Of course not! Which ordinary family doesn't do a little business to make a living? The rich and powerful have countless businesses. They just find an excuse to register these businesses under the name of their family members. So, this shop belongs to your mother and you, and has nothing to do with your father and your brother."

Su Shian suddenly realized and thanked him: "Thank you for your guidance, Uncle Seven. I now understand everything." He couldn't help but think of the plots of the TV series he watched every day. The officials in the dramas didn't seem to be directly involved in the business world, but they were prosperous and wealthy behind the scenes. Now that he thought about it, the reason was actually like this.

At the same time, Deng Xian pulled Su Shining to concentrate on preparing the shop. She thought to herself that since she already owed Seventh Brother so much, it would be better to rent his shop directly, so that she wouldn't have to run back and forth every day.

So, Deng Xian plucked up the courage to say to Deng Qiyue: "Seventh Brother, can you rent one of your shops to us? We are willing to pay the rent every month..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Deng Qiyue. He frowned and said firmly: "Xian'er, what nonsense are you talking about! I bought this shop specially for you, how can you say that you are renting it from me? Are you dissatisfied with your seventh brother?" Faced with Su Yu and Deng Xian's repeated rejections, Deng Qiyue was obviously a little unhappy.

Deng Xian was speechless for a moment and wanted to explain but was stopped by Deng Qiyue. Deng Qiyue just waved his hand and said decisively: "Okay, no need to say more." His eyes revealed a kind of determination, as if he had made up his mind and could not change it.

"Uncle Seven, I have an idea." Su Shian watched the two men's faces becoming increasingly gloomy, and thought to himself that it was not good, fearing that they would quarrel if they said a few more words. "It's not that my mother doesn't want to bother you all the time or take advantage of you. After all, she is already married, and it is not appropriate for her to always rely on her brothers for support."

"I'm not an outsider, why can't I lend a helping hand? Do you prefer to suffer? Besides, I'm looking forward to my eldest nephew taking care of me in my old age and seeing me to the end of my life in the future!" Deng Qiyue asked in confusion.

Deng Xian was actually a little afraid of what Deng Qiyue would say: "Seventh Brother..."

"Uncle Seven, it's too early to talk about taking care of me in my old age! You see, my parents are determined not to take over the shop, but you hope they can accept it. How about this, you offer the shop to us to run it, and we can share the profits equally?"

"Hmm?" Deng Qiyue thought about it for a while and felt that this plan was very good. Anyway, he could let the children go to his house to study. Even if he really made money, he could give the children more study supplies.

Deng Qiyue nodded repeatedly, indicating that she agreed very much with the proposal put forward by Su Shian, with a happy smile on her face. She turned to look at Deng Xian and Su Shining, and said playfully: "We must work hard to make money in the future, otherwise Uncle Seven will lose a lot of money!"

Su Shining nodded gently and responded: "Yes, An An is absolutely right."

Hearing Deng Qiyue's words, Deng Xian felt relieved. She immediately urged, "Let's get started and tidy up the shop. If we have enough time, we can make tofu in the shop tomorrow."

Su Shian also understood that although their social status was expressed according to the system of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans in their era, who among the officials had relatives who owned a few shops? Su Yu was not an official, so it was normal for him to open a shop to make a living, and it was still his relatives who ran it.

So Deng Qiyue went home first, and after a short stay, he returned home with Su Shikuan. Not long after, they returned, followed by Grandpa Fang, Grandma Fang, and several people hired from outside to help. Everyone held a tool for cleaning.

Deng Qiyue smiled and said to the people around him in a warm tone: "Uncle Fang, Aunt Fang, this is Deng Xian, my sister, you can call her Madam Su." Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang answered in unison: "Greetings, Madam Su." Then, Deng Qiyue called a few more children over and told them: "These two are Uncle Fang and Grandma Fang, you should call them Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang."

The Su family's children called out obediently, "Grandpa Fang, Grandma Fang." Then, Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang also responded politely, "Hello, cousins!" Then, Deng Qiyue introduced the names of each child in turn, "They are Su Shining, Su Shikuan, Su Shirong, and Su Shian."
