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

The three of them walked and talked, and soon they came to the young master of Buyu. However, unexpectedly, the three people, including Su Yu and his father, were all shocked - they thought that this young master should be about the same age as Buyu, but who would have thought that he was even younger! Especially considering that his actual height was much taller than his peers, if it wasn't so, they would probably be even more surprised.

Xiao Ran finally spoke, and said calmly: "Uncle, please take a seat!"

"Well, then let's do as the young master says." Lord Chen responded helplessly.

At this time, Su Shian lowered his voice and whispered to his brother Su Shirong beside him: "Third brother, have you noticed that Master Chen seems to be quite afraid of this child? Looking at his appearance, he is so young, I really don't know where the 'fear' that Master Chen mentioned comes from?"

"Yes, I noticed it too. Don't talk about it anymore." Su Shirong hurriedly told his sister, fearing that others would hear it. However, things did not go as planned, and Xiao Ran still heard every word of their conversation. Xiao Ran's eyes suddenly turned to the Su brothers and sisters.

"Third brother, he seemed to be watching us just now."

"That's true."

Facing Xiao Ran's sudden questioning, Su Shirong's heart tightened, and he quickly stood up to defend his sister: "Sir, my sister is young and ignorant. If she has offended me, I hope you will forgive me..."

Before he finished speaking, Su Shirong and Su Shian stood up one after another, but both of them remained silent, fearing that their words might be biased and cause trouble.

"You don't have to be so reserved. I just saw that you two were talking with great interest, and I was curious." Xiao Ran said honestly. He had no intention of making things difficult for these two people who were younger than him. These two people looked cute and adorable, which made him feel good about them. He asked purely out of curiosity.

Seeing that Xiao Ran had no intention of getting angry, Su Shi'an calmed down a little, thinking that it would be better to get straight to the point instead of beating around the bush. So she said loudly: "Excuse me, sir, why are you looking for my father?" At the same time, she muttered to herself that when she was with these people, she always felt that the atmosphere was depressing and uncomfortable.

Xiao Ran raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, and responded softly: "In that case, then please trouble Mr. Su to tell us in detail the origin of this tofu. I have only tasted this delicious food once in the mansion of a nobleman." Although he said this, he deliberately concealed the specific identity of the nobleman. However, the clever Su Shian was thoughtful and secretly thought: If this person is not a royal relative, he is probably from an imperial family.

"This...actually, I...um...happened to see it by chance in an ancient book..." Su Yu spoke hesitantly, his tone sounding a little hesitant, as if he was very embarrassed about how to answer this question.

"So, this tofu was made by Mr. Su according to the method in ancient books?" Xiao Ran continued to ask. Faced with this series of questions, Su Yu suddenly became panicked and speechless, not knowing how to answer. At this moment, his mind was turning rapidly, thinking hard about what words he should use to evade the question.

At this moment, Su Shian stepped forward fearlessly and said loudly: "My lord, this is actually a method I learned from an old book. Oh, it's really a coincidence. At that time, I accidentally put gypsum water into the soy milk, and I never thought that it would produce such delicious tofu."

After all, she was just a young and ignorant child at the moment. Instead of letting her father lie, it would be better for her to make up a story. If she really couldn't justify herself, she could just act like a spoiled child or cheat a little, and she would probably be able to get away with it.

Xiao Ran carefully looked at her from head to toe for a long time, and asked suspiciously, "Oh? Is that so? Is it really you who did it?"

Su Shian nodded vigorously and replied crisply: "It's absolutely true! You don't know..."

However, Xiao Ran obviously didn't buy it. He first cast a contemptuous look at Su Shi'an, then sneered and said, "Humph, you little brat, how can you convince me? It's clearly nonsense!" Then, he turned to look at Su Yu, and asked in a slightly gentler tone: "Su Xiucai, please tell me the truth. I have no other intentions, I'm just curious. After all, there were very few people who knew such a craft before, but now you can master the secret, which is really suspicious."

Su Yu frowned slightly and said in a positive tone: "This was indeed caused by An An's carelessness, but what you said about the few people who can cook this kind of food is not accurate. This is something that Lord Chen can testify to..."

"That's right, Ran'er. Many people in our Xuyang County can make tofu and tofu pudding. This is all thanks to brother Su Yu and his family." County Magistrate Chen's face was full of gratitude. After all, it was his good governance that allowed the people to selflessly openly disclose their money-making recipes.

Although what they said was true, after all, Buliu had already found out in advance that many people in Xuyang County knew how to make tofu pudding, Xiao Ran still had doubts in his heart: "Is it really so? Then can you lend me that ancient book to read?"

Hearing this, Su Yu was startled, and a thought flashed through his mind - book? Which book? Should he make up one on the spot? Just as he was hesitating, Su Shian beside him took the lead in responding: "Uh... Sir, I'm afraid you won't be able to see that book."

"Oh? Why?" Xiao Ran looked puzzled.

Su Shian looked extremely regretful and explained with a sigh, "Alas, I am really ashamed. The precious ancient book accidentally fell into the water and was completely destroyed." Su Shirong, who was standing by, saw this and helplessly held his forehead with his hand, secretly complaining in his heart that his sister was acting too much. But it was better than what his sister said she dreamed.

"So that's how it is!" Xiao Ran nodded thoughtfully.

"That's right!" Su Shian echoed with pretended regret.

Anyway, they finished talking, and no one knew whether Xiao Ran believed it or not. But seeing that he did not continue to ask questions, Su Yu and his two sons breathed a sigh of relief and quickly left the Chen Mansion.
