Chapter 57: Attracting the Villagers

Hongzhi decided to just ask Qi Younian directly. Although Ye Xinyan's former status was illustrious, even a prince had to show face to Old Master Duke An. However, the Ye Xinyan of today had escaped from Duke An's Mansion; she was a young woman without status, and even with some considerations, there were significant discounts.

He put down the small wooden wheel in his hand, clasped his hands together, and said, "I won't hide it from you, sir. Although my main reason for coming here is to ask about the recipe for your rice tofu, I also have other matters."

Ye Xinyan pursed her lips, thinking that if there was something to be said, it should be said plainly. Wasn't beating around the bush just keeping people on tenterhooks?

Seeing that Hongzhi was getting ready to speak seriously, Qi Younian quickly straightened up and earnestly promised, "Young Master, please feel free to speak your mind. As long as it is within this old man's power, I definitely won't shirk. Please, take a seat."
