197 Fragrant Lamb Skewers

Mr. Kong was curious as he had never seen that expression on his master’s face before. Luo Jin’an’s smile was as warm as the spring breeze, and his aura carried a gentleness.

Mr. Kong wondered how long it had been since he saw his master smiling. Therefore, Mr. Kong was curious about the information his master had read.

He took the paper from Luo Jin’an and revealed a surprised expression as he read its contents. Mr. Kong laughed out loud when he finished reading the information.

“Miss Su is truly an extraordinary person to be able to think of such a punishment. I never expected that. I feel thrilled just by reading about what she had done.” Mr. Kong smiled and praised Su Binglan endlessly.

He could vividly imagine what Su Binglan had done. Mr. Kong was excited as he held the information in his hand. “No wonder you laughed just now, Master.”

Mr. Kong felt relieved when he looked at Luo Jin’an. He could rest assured knowing a brilliant and capable young lady was by his master’s side.

However, he did not know what Luo Jin’an and Su Binglan were thinking. Mr. Kong only wanted Su Binglan and his master to be together forever. He enjoyed the way Su Binglan did things.

Luo Jin’an was absent-minded, so he asked, “Did I just laugh?”

It had been long since Luo Jin’an laughed, so he forgot how it felt. Still, Luo Jin’an had to admit that he felt relaxed whenever he was with Su Binglan. He enjoyed living a peaceful life and wanted to forget the past.

However, he would think of the burden on his responsibilities and become indifferent again.

Mr. Kong nodded and said, “Of course, you laughed. Only Miss Su can make you smile like that. It’s just that you’ve never realized it.”

Luo Jin’an said leisurely, “Maybe.”

Mr. Kong said excitedly, “To be honest, I think Miss Su is very straightforward. I’m satisfied with what she did. Zou Kongtie was a bandit and committed various crimes, including burning, killing, and plundering.

“Many wanted to take revenge upon him, but he later joined King Jian, so the king protected Zou Kongtie. Then no one dared to touch Zou Kongtie, even though he had done many evil deeds and harmed many people.”

Luo Jin’an said lightly, “This time, Zou Kongtie killed everyone in Shixia Village. It’s a remote village, and no one would have known about his crimes.”

Mr. Kong slammed the table and said, “I’m infuriated! Those were innocent people, and King Jian allowed Zou Kongtie to do that!”

Luo Jin’an’s expression turned cold when he thought about King Jian. “He’s the crown prince’s brother. King Jian’s brother gave him the fief because it’s rich with iron ore, which they can use to forge weapons and tools of war.”

Mr. Kong said, “Exactly. It’s fertile land but low in grain yield. Still, I didn’t expect them to kill innocent people.”

Luo Jin’an seemed to have thought of something, and his expression turned colder. “Those people will do anything to achieve their goals.”

Mr. Kong said, “If it weren’t for Miss Su, no one would know about what Zou Kongtie did. Moreover, Miss Su’s method was incredible because she took King Jian’s right-hand man and taught him a lesson he won’t soon forget.

“Now, King Jian will not dare to let his subordinates be so reckless again. Miss Su killed Zou Kongtie and avenged Shixia Village’s people.”

However, Mr. Kong was puzzled. “Although, it is bizarre. There are many guards in Zou Mansion and where King Jian is. Yet, Miss Su was able to kidnap Zou Kongtie so easily. I’m very impressed.

“Also, she brought Lin Zheng with her. That kid must be very competent. How is he so strong? I wonder how Miss Su trained Lin Zheng to be so capable. If so, Miss Su must be mighty.”

Luo Jin’an’s expression changed. He said smilingly, “She has her ways.”

Mr. Kong sighed. “Fortunately, she is your wife, Master.” As if he had thought of something, he continued, “I wonder how King Ding is doing. If he’s in good health, he wouldn’t have to worry about those people now.”

Luo Jin’an and Mr. Kong chatted for a long while. Then Luo Jin’an arranged some things for his subordinates and took the opportunity to go to the shop in the afternoon.

Su Binglan was not there, so Luo Jin’an helped her take care of the shop, even though his wife did not tell him to.

Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin were always busy during the afternoon, while Li Shi and Zhou Shan would take turns helping them. One would look after the dessert shop while the other helped Liu Yinyin and her husband.

Many customers were at the shop at that time.

“Sir, give us some sesame buns and tofu pudding.”

“Okay, please wait a moment. They will be ready soon.”

“Ma’am, can we get a bowl of haggis soup, please? Also, please give me another pancake.”

“Um, can we have more chilies, sir?”

…

One could feel the liveliness in the shops. It was initially a remote area nearby Tenghe Town, but it became a bustling place when Su Binglan opened the shops.

People filled the once deserted streets with chatter. There was also a barbecue stall in a space not far from the tofu shop that Su Fengzhi’s family had set up.

Su Fengzhi taught his family how to make lamb kebabs after learning it from Su Binglan. However, they used firewood to make them at home because it was inconvenient to bring firewood to town.

Su Fengzhi and his family made charcoal at him according to the method Su Binglan taught them. The charcoal was challenging to make, so the family studied it for a few days and wasted plenty of firewood.

After many trials and errors, the family finally succeeded in making charcoal. As for the stalls, tables, chairs, and barbecue tools, Su Fengzhi asked Su Zhengde, his eldest brother, to help him build them.

However, when Su Fengzhi went to his eldest brother’s house to ask for that favor, he saw Su Zhengde excitedly learning how to make bricks and did not have time to make those things for him.

After asking, Su Fengzhi discovered that Su Binglan was the one who taught Su Zhengde about bricks. He became emotional when he thought of his niece being the family’s lucky star. Everyone was worried about Su Binglan when she left.

Nonetheless, Su Zhengde’s three sons made the things Su Fengzhi needed for his stall. Then Su Fengzhi hurriedly set up his stall.

When Su Fengzhi barbecued the lamb skewers, the fragrance drifted far away.

“What’s that fragrant smell? It smells good.”

“Is that the smell of meat?”
