After taking the medicine, the old woman felt sleepy.

Su Xiaowan helped the old woman lie down and rest.

Su Jinhua was the first to leave the house, followed by Xiaowan.

"Sister, I cannot repay you for saving my life! Please accept my greetings!"

After saying that, Xiaowan knelt down and was about to kneel in front of Su Jinhua.

Fortunately, Su Jinhua was quick to act and supported the child.

Xiaowan's gratitude was beyond words. Although she could not kneel down, she still bowed deeply, as if she wanted to put all her respect into this bow.

"That's not necessary, Xiaowan." Su Jinhua's voice was gentle but firm. "I will remember your life-saving grace. How can money be as precious as a human life?"

When Xiaowan heard Su Jinhua's words, her eyes suddenly became moist, as if two crystal little peaches were rolling in her eye sockets.

She had never imagined that someone would value their lives so much.

In her memory, they were not even as good as ordinary slaves and were merely regarded as objects that could be used at will.

Su Jinhua looked at Xiaowan's reaction and couldn't help feeling sad.

So, she continued to comfort him, "Xiao Wan, you don't have to be too grateful. I'm not helping you out of kindness. I paid a deposit to let you embroider the handkerchief, and this can be considered a deal between us. The most important thing in business is personal connections. If I help you, and you live a good life in the future, you will naturally help me, right?"

Xiaowan understood what Su Jinhua said and nodded repeatedly. She understood what Su Jinhua meant and knew what she should do. "If my sister needs me, I will do my best! I will go through fire and water!" Her voice was firm and powerful.

"It's not that exaggerated, but my sister does need Xiaowan's help with something."

Su Jinhua squatted down and looked at Xiaowan straight in the eye.

"There is not a single store on this street. Sister needs you to keep an eye on the developments on this street. Do you understand?"

"I see."

This child is smart. Su Jinhua touched her head, gave her an address, and told her that she could communicate with Zhuying if she had any information.

When the group left Xiaowan's house, Gu Yan'an asked, "Aren't you afraid of putting your trust in the wrong person?"

"Although Xiaowan is young, she is smart and thoughtful." Su Jinhua tilted her head slightly and said to Gu Yanan, with a hint of appreciation in her voice.

And in such an environment, she can only choose to believe in herself. She is smart and will of course seize this opportunity.

The two walked side by side on this dilapidated and depressed road.

Returning to the bustling streets, the hustle and bustle here seems like two different worlds from the deserted streets.

When passing by the rabbit soup shop, Su Jinhua stopped.

The big pot was still filled with steaming rabbit soup, and the aroma was everywhere.

Gu Yanan chuckled and handed over the copper coins.

When the peddler saw that it was them again, he immediately smiled.

"You two are here again. I'll pack it for you right away."

As soon as he finished speaking, he swiftly wrapped the rabbit soup. The hot and soft rabbit soup in his hands made him hungry.

Su Jinhua blushed. She actually didn't care about food and drink. She was standing here because she wanted to talk about something with the small vendor.

I didn't expect Gu Yan'an to move so quickly.

"This is really delicious. I don't like sweets, but this is just the right amount of sweetness and not too big, so it's okay to eat some."

Gu Yanan said from the side.

For some reason, this sentence seemed to be giving someone a way out, so Su Jinhua went along with it.

Su Jinhua took another bite, and the familiar sweet taste spread in her mouth, mixed with the fragrance of yam. She couldn't help but praise: "This rabbit soup is really delicious."

"Thank you for the compliment. If you like it, you can buy some more to take away," said the stall owner enthusiastically.

Su Jinhua smiled slightly and shook his head: "I just think this dish is very special. It contains yam, which is both delicious and nourishing."

"You have a really good eye, girl. This dish is indeed something I developed exclusively and I put a lot of thought into it," the stall owner said proudly.

Su Jinhua chuckled. She came here just for the exclusive recipe.

She had thought about opening a herbal medicine restaurant on that street. The prices were affordable and children loved eating these little sweets. They were made with herbs and could strengthen the body.

This rabbit is softer and more sticky, suitable for people of all ages.

"Besides rabbit soup, what else can you make?"

The stall owner was kneading dough in his hands. When he heard Su Jinhua's question, he hummed.

"Oh, that's a lot. To be honest, I used to be a pastry chef in a restaurant. Later, something happened at home and I had to leave. I also studied medicine with an old man."

"Knowing that some ingredients can be used as medicine, I have been thinking about making these medicinal foods. Unfortunately, they only look good, but not many can be sold in a day."

It is not surprising that it cannot be sold. People in Kyoto who want to eat medicinal food will go to large pharmacy or make reservations at restaurants.

Su Jinhua had been to various major pharmacies before, and had ordered medicinal meals from restaurants, but none of them were very good and always had the bitter taste of medicine.

A bowl of ordinary yam porridge, but it has to be made fancy. It loses its original medicinal properties.

"That's a shame. I've tried many medicinal dishes from pharmacies and restaurants, but none of them are as delicious as yours. Besides rabbit soup, you also have many other pasta dishes, right?"

"I'm not trying to brag about you, sir. If you want to do something, there's nothing I can't do."

Su Jinhua nodded and said, "That's great. I'm very interested in your dish. I wonder if you are willing to cooperate with me?" Su Jinhua asked tentatively.

"Young lady, please speak." Seeing that Su Jinhua had an extraordinary temperament, the stall owner guessed that she must be rich or noble, and immediately felt respect for her.

"I plan to open a herbal medicine restaurant that specializes in selling various medicinal foods and health-preserving prescriptions. If you are willing to cooperate with me in making your rabbit soup, I would like to hire you as the pastry chef of the herbal medicine restaurant and promote this dish together. What do you think?" Su Jinhua explained his idea.

The stall owner was very excited after hearing this. He knew that although his skills were good, it would not be easy to make a name for himself.

People are willing to hire him, which is the blessing and opportunity he has earned in eight lifetimes.

"Miss, you are so kind. I am willing to cooperate with you. However, I only know a few medicinal dishes. If I want to launch new products, I really don't know how to do it."

"It's okay. You just need to make the shape and taste good. I will give you the recipes for the new medicinal food and the health-preserving recipes."

The stall owner's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly: "I really met a noble person today."

"Don't worry, this rabbit soup alone is still not perfect. Prepare some of your specialties tomorrow. I want to test them myself."

"Okay, okay, I'll start preparing tonight."
