The spirit was an old man.

Even after being inside the corpse for so long and being corroded by the evil energy, it still smiled ingratiatingly at Su Chen with great enthusiasm.

Su Chen: "..."

"Old man, the corpse is already rotting, why are you still going up?"

"Moreover, he recovers from being a zombie very slowly."

"Can I guess that you deliberately entered his body to hide from someone?"

The old man smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

"The old man is indeed hiding from his enemies; he can't hide it from Master Su."

"But turning into a zombie... it really was an accident, otherwise I wouldn't have had to hide for so many years, right?"

Su Chen raised an eyebrow: "Really?"

"The old man never lies, really."

"Um, Master Su helped me escape that corpse. If I have the chance someday, this old man will definitely repay you~"

After finishing his sentence, the old man didn't dare to leave immediately, cautiously observing Su Chen's expression.

After a long pause, Su Chen nodded slightly: "It's daytime now, be careful."

"Thank you, thank you~" The old man's tone instantly relaxed, and his body quickly floated towards the base of the wall, disappearing without a trace after passing through it.

Su Chen looked away; Xi Meng was already sitting down beside him.

"You actually believe his nonsense?"

Su Chen: "...Do you know him?"

“I’d recognize him even if he were ashes,” Xi Meng squinted. “Song Changming, the lecherous glutton from the Xuan Shi.”

Su Chen was not surprised that he was a Xuan Master.

"Did he offend you?"

"He flirted with me, so I slapped him twice, breaking three of his ribs."

Xi Meng said through gritted teeth, "You even go after me, you pervert!"

Su Chen smiled.

"But it's good, looks like he got his comeuppance."

“A dignified Xuan Master has actually fallen to this state. If it were Xi Lan… cough cough, well,” Xi Meng looked at Su Chen, “I have one piece finished. Should I give it to you now, or do you want to come tomorrow?”

"Tomorrow, right? They gave me a room, so I can just put it there."

Xi Meng nodded, then winked at Su Chen.

"what happened again?"

"Guess how much money I made today?"

Su Chen frowned: "You haven't even finished preparing all the goods, and you already have orders?"

"Ahem, it's not jewelry."

"Old Du's pan-fried buns?"

Xi Meng raised an eyebrow: "Otherwise what?"

"Guess how much we made? You're not allowed to calculate it."

"One hundred thousand?"

Xi Meng crossed her arms smugly: "Almost."

"One hundred and fifty thousand?"

"Impressive, right? The person I picked."

Su Chen gave a thumbs up.

Xi Meng was satisfied: "I'm truly a business genius!"

Seeing her rush back, Su Chen slowly shook his head.

After going inside, Su Chen held little A-Yun and chatted with Lao Song, Ge Ping'an, and the others for a while, then tidied up the tables and chairs and returned to the villa.

The construction workers had all left by then. Lin Yan was talking to Liu Chunhua in the living room, but Liu Chunhua's brows were tightly furrowed and she didn't relax them.

Hearing the noise, Liu Chunhua turned around, sighed, and came over to hug Xiao Ayun.

"My sister didn't agree, did she?"

Liu Chunhua nodded weakly: "She hasn't agreed yet, but who knows if she'll agree after a while of whispering in her ear?"

"Ah Wang too, I wonder how the Wu family treated him before? They still cared that he was the eldest brother. How can the eldest brother in a family be idle and let his younger brothers suffer?"

“Look at your older brother, Amao, and then look at him…”

Su Chen laughed: "You said the same thing to your brother-in-law?"

"What else can we do? Ah Wang needs to be given a talking-to."

"Does he think it's easy for you to arrange a job for him? You'll owe him a favor too!"

“When I went there, I could tell from his expression that something was wrong, so I told him directly that if either of them gave away a job, I would make them get a divorce.”

Liu Chunhua exhaled as she spoke: "It's intimidating for now, but who knows what will happen in the future."

"The main problem is that Xiaozhu is really soft-hearted. If only she could be a little more assertive... Sigh, never mind, it's my fault. I always thought Xiaozhu was easy to boss around, and I basically made her do all the housework. Otherwise, her personality wouldn't have turned out like this..."

After a moment of reflection, Liu Chunhua asked Su Chen, "You're back a little early today. What are you planning to eat tonight?"

"Just cook some sweet potato porridge."

"Shall we go pick up Apeng and the others from school together later, and then go help Ahua out?"

Su Chen: "..."

"Are we really going to send such a large group?"

“So what if there are a lot of people? If Ahua can’t sell all the pan-fried buns, we can each take two. I’ll pay for them, and that will be considered as supporting Ahua’s stall.”

"Oh right, I've already called a taxi. I'll have them wait at the school gate, okay?"

Su Chen nodded, his gaze falling on Lin Yan.

Liu Chunhua quickly said, "I'll have Xiao Yan go with me."

"By the way, if you have time later, could you watch over the kids? I'll go pick out a few outfits for Xiao Yan."

Lin Yan stared at her in astonishment.

"You can't not buy it even if you don't want to. You've been wearing these clothes for several days now, and you need to take a shower and change them."

"Also, Xiao Yan, how old are you? You should wear brighter clothes. Look at A Peng and Shu Mo, and then look at yours."

"Don't be so polite with Grandma, she's rich!"

Lin Yan looked to Su Chen for help, but Su Chen ignored him and instead turned around and asked A Hao to prepare hot water so that he could give Xiao A Yun a bath.

Once raw, twice cooked.

Xu Jiahua and her friends set up their stall for the second time. Although moving tables and chairs was a bit troublesome, with Qiyue helping them, things went smoothly.

Before they could even settle in completely, someone started offering money.

"Still 50 cents each?"

Xu Jiahua nodded: "Yes, how many do you want?"

"Just one."

Du Jie quickly collected the money and packed it into fried buns.

When she blurted out "Come again next time," she was surprised.

Turning her head, Du Jie saw Xu Jiahua giving her an approving look. She blushed and coughed lightly, "I still don't dare to shout."

"It's okay, it's me."

Yueyue quickly raised her little hand: "Mommy, me too, me too!"

"Yes, and our little Yueyue too."

Xu Jiahua: "Fried buns, delicious fried buns!"

Yueyue: "Come quick, buy some pan-fried buns!"

When Liu Chunhua and the others got out of the car, they saw four or five people in front of the stall. Just as they were about to tell the children not to go over there so as not to affect their business, Apeng darted over like a cannonball.

"Mommy, I want to eat pan-fried buns!"

Xu Jiahua was taken aback for a moment, then looked up and saw Liu Chunhua and the others had arrived. She smiled and said, "Mom, what brings you all here?"

"The kids all want to come because they know you have a stall. I also want to see how your business is doing."

As Liu Chunhua spoke, she walked to Xu Jiahua's side and said, "Ahua, let's be bold. We're not afraid of losing money. Mom has money here. If the fried buns don't sell well, we can sell something else. There's bound to be something that can make us a lot of money."

Xu Jiahua smiled: "Okay~"

Liu Chunhua was stunned for a moment, and only after all the customers had taken their fried buns and left did she ask in a low voice, "You started making money yesterday?"

"Yeah, not many."

"It's normal not to earn much, it's the first day, we'll definitely earn more today."

As she spoke, Liu Chunhua took a sniff and exclaimed, "It really smells good!"

Seeing Du Jie efficiently distributing fried buns to the children, she hurriedly took out her wallet.

They were stopped.

“Ahua, you set up the stall with your sister-in-law, so Mom has to pay for this.”

Xu Jiahua laughed: "Mom, we're not saying we can't give it to you, it's just that there's a God of Wealth here."

Liu Chunhua: “???”

When she saw Xu Jiahua pointing at Su Chen, her eyes lit up.

Su Chen met their gazes and said helplessly, "Ten yuan. If you can't finish it, take it back to Dad and the others."

As soon as he handed over the money, he frowned and took a careful sniff.

"What's wrong?" Xu Jiahua took the money and asked curiously when she saw that his hand was still raised.

Su Chen turned his head to look at a white sedan that had driven away.

Lin Yan walked to Su Chen's side with a stern face.

"Master Su, it smells like the stench of a man-eating flower."
