TFWYH – Chapter 185 Going to the Su Family

When Ling Xiaofang came out of the backyard, she had already regained her composure.

Not only that, she even threw shy, bashful glances at Yang San from time to time—just like a young maiden about to be married.

Yang San had had quite a bit to drink, and seeing her like this made him think she looked rather pleasing to the eye. His heart itched a little.

And so, the matter was settled—Yang Laosan and Ling Canghe agreed that he would come to marry Ling Xiaofang in a month’s time.

Tang Wan, meanwhile, had no idea that those two women were scheming something foul behind her back.

In fact, she’d practically forgotten they even existed.

The next morning, Tang Hongba and his two sons came over bright and early.

Tang Wan led the three of them to the kitchen, and as soon as they stepped inside, a delicious aroma wafted through the air.

Ling Yue greeted them warmly: “Uncle Tang, Brother Tang, Second Brother Tang, you’re here!”

Then she picked up a plate from the side and handed it to them. “Here, try this. Sister-in-law got me up early just to make this. I failed a few times before, but I finally got it right.”

The three men stared blankly at the ugly-looking beans on the plate. They wanted to refuse, but seeing the expectant look in Ling Yue’s eyes, they decided to give her face and try one.

The next instant, their eyes lit up.

Tang Hongba exclaimed, “What on earth is this? It’s delicious!”

“It’s fragrant, crisp, sweet, and spicy—such a strange mix, but somehow addicting,” Tang Tianyang said, then promptly took the plate and popped another one into his mouth.

Tang Tiansheng also took one, bit it in half, and peered at the inside of the bean. “Is this… fava bean?”

“Yes!” Ling Yue nodded. “It’s called Strange-Flavor Fava Beans. It’s what I want you to sell. Uncle Tang, do you think this could make money?”

Tang Hongba quickly nodded. “Absolutely! The flavor’s unique—once you start, you can’t stop. It’ll definitely sell!”

Ling Yue smiled. “Then you’ll have to learn it properly from me. It’s simple, really. Once you’ve mastered it, you can have Brother Dashan and the others help with distribution. You’ll make far more money than selling pork.”

“Deal!” The three men were full of enthusiasm and immediately started learning how to make the beans from Ling Yue.

Tang Wan acted as their overall supervisor.

Although she was hopeless in the kitchen, she had solid theoretical knowledge—whenever one of the men made a mistake, she would point it out right away.

At first, Ling Yue had been a little unhappy that Tang Wan was giving the fava bean business to Tang Hongba.

But then she thought about it—it was her sister-in-law’s father, after all. Giving her own father a business opportunity was only natural.

Besides, she herself was already busy and would soon be even busier with the face mask business. She couldn’t handle everything.

Better to focus—bite off only what she could chew.

And Tang Wan would surely make sure she had her fair share of business in the future.

Tang Hongba, newly motivated, was convinced the beans would sell well. But there was one problem—if he stopped selling pork, he could no longer supply Ling Yue with pork offal.

“I’ll stop dealing in pork, so I won’t be able to send you pig offal anymore,” he said. “When I get back, I’ll talk to Yang San and have him deliver it instead.”

“Yang San?” Tang Wan raised a brow. “That’s convenient, then.”

She added, “I’ll go myself. Dad, once you finish learning, go back and rest—you’re still injured.”

“Alright, alright!” Tang Hongba looked at his daughter with pride—she really had grown up and become reliable.

While the three men bustled about in the kitchen with Ling Yue, Doctor Li came by to tell Tang Wan that the Su family had sent word—they’d come to pick her up early the next morning.

Tang Wan had no objections. She’d been thinking about those thousand taels of gold for quite some time.

The next day, she sent Ling Yue to find Yang San, while she shouldered her small basket and left with Doctor Li.
