“That tiny thing sold for three coins? I heard it’s made of soybeans.” A woman eyeing the Lin Family’s stall with envy said to her companion.
“I think the people buying this stuff must be crazy. It’s only soybeans, not some rare delicacy.” The companion replied with a sour tone. “The Lin Family has quite the greedy heart.”
“Enough, let’s go get some food.” In no time, all the tofu brought by the Lin Family sold out, leaving the people who didn’t manage to line up to regretfully leave.
“Bring more next time, we also want to buy tofu to cook with.” Someone advised Lin Changshu.
“We are limited by our circumstances at home and can only make so much, my apologies.” Lin Changshu responded with an apologetic smile.
“Well, you could make a larger quantity of this braised meat, right?” Somebody else yelled.
The offal prepared by the Lin Family were too delicious. When the Lin Family didn’t come to the market some days ago, many people tried to buy and cook it themselves, but their offal still had a strange flavor, so they quickly gave up.
“We’ll try our best,” Lin Ziyin said with a smile, “As long as we can get an adequate amount of offal, we’ll definitely make more.”
Only then did the crowd disperse, satisfied with the answer.
“Brother, Dayou, we’ll leave the rest to you,” Lin Ziyin said with a smile.
“Alright, you guys go have fun, see you at the oxcart later,” Lin Changshu responded.
“Business is good.” Lou Zheng came over. He and his wife Zhang had returned a while ago, but seeing the Lin Family busy, they didn’t want to disturb and just stood watching from afar.
“Decent.” The old man answered, without any hint of pride.
Upon witnessing the capabilities of the Lin Family, Lou Zheng’s heart couldn’t upheave his admiration. “You guys are doing well.” There wasn’t a hint of jealousy.
Zhang felt fortunate to be on good terms with the Lin Family. Seeing their drive, she knew they surely weren’t far from prosperity.
“I’ll join you ladies for a while,” she naturally joined the women’s group with a smile.
“Sure, auntie,” Lin Ziyin agreed with a beaming smile.
Thus, the group comprised of women and children joined the bustling crowd at the market.
After selling tofu and braised meat for a few days, they had earned them a bit of silver. But Lin Ziyin had insisted on the old man holding on to it, saying she had plans. Therefore, the old man guarded the silver closely.
“Here.” This time at the market, Lin Ziyin only bought a few pastries for the children, plus an extra one for Lou Zheng’s grandson.
Zhang tried to refuse, but seeing Lin Ziyin’s insistence, she eventually accepted. Observing Lin Ziyin’s astute approach, she began to adore her even more.
By midday, they had their snacks and rode the oxcart back home.
Once they arrived at the village, the Lin family could immediately tell that the villagers were looking at them differently.
The stares were unnerving.
The Lin family understood why, but since no one asked and they played dumb, they greeted everyone with smiles before returning home.
“What cheek!” The Bao family’s matriarch spat after they had left.
Everyone wanted to ask the Lin family what they were selling that was so popular. But seeing them returning on Lou Zheng’s oxcart, everyone held their tongues.

After all, Lou Zheng held quite a status in the village, and no one dared to offend him lightly.
“Brother, I want to head into the city tomorrow,” Lin Ziyin said during lunch.
