“Old man, here – ”
A piece of fine white silver, approximately the weight of a penny, was handed over.
The grandfather and grandson were comforting each other when they were startled by the unexpected arrival of the silver, and raised their heads in surprise.
On the opposite side, a girl around the age of twelve or thirteen stared at them fondly.
The girl was so thin and yellow, and the coat she wore was ragged and frayed, but she exhibited an indescribable noble grace, like bamboo or plum, making the ruined coat she wore not as noticeable.
“Take this, save it to buy some steamed buns for the child,” the girl stuffed the silver into the old man’s hand.
“Oh, thank you, thank you, miss…”
The old beggar gripped the silver tightly, thanking the girl repeatedly, and called over his grandson: “Yuan’er, come quickly, thank the lady.”
“No need,” Cai Wei promptly intervened, then picked up a small earthen jar from the cow cart and handed it to the old beggar.
“This is bone soup I stewed early this morning; it’s very nourishing.
Find a place to warm it up and share it with the child!”
“Thank you, miss, thank you, miss…”
As they sent off the old beggar, who was overflowing with gratitude, Cai Wei’s mood eased.
She then settled down and had Jiujin take her to the best restaurant in town – Zuixian Residence!
The Zuixian Residence is also located in Goldfish Lane, at the very southern end of the alley, joining the main street, the most golden location in town!
When they got to the restaurant, it was lunchtime, and all the seats were taken.
Several waiters were bustling around non-stop.
“Ah, miss, you’re here!
Are you here for a meal?”
The shop assistant recognized Cai Wei as the girl who came to sell wild boars yesterday, and enthusiastically greeted her.
“Brother, I’ll eat later.
For now, I want to see your shopkeeper,” Cai Wei spoke while keeping her big, genuine eyes locked on the shop assistant.
The shop assistant hesitated, “Miss, I regret to inform you, our shopkeeper Shen is currently having a drink with the county magistrate, so he probably doesn’t have time to meet with you.
Why don’t you dine first?”
The county magistrate is here too?
Cai Wei’s eyes sparkled, she took a step forward, lifted the protective straw mat from her basket, and said to the shop assistant, “I’ve come this time with two dishes for sale.
Please bring them to Shopkeeper Shen and the county magistrate’s table.
As for the rest, I won’t bother you, please accept this token of appreciation,” as she spoke, she handed the shop assistant a piece of broken silver.
“Ah, thank you, miss.
You’re too kind!”
The shop assistant pocketed the silver, basking in delight.
That very morning, he’d heard the shopkeeper complain about the chef, saying it’s been a while since any new dishes were introduced.
The old ones, the customers were tired of.
Lo and behold, the new dishes had arrived, courtesy of this little girl.
Just look at those two dishes, green is green, white is white, emerald is emerald, irresistibly appealing at first sight.
He received some silver, and also stood to garner praise from Shopkeeper Shen.
A win from both ends!
“One of these dishes is called Phoenix Egg.
It needs to be heated over quick fire; as for the crystal jelly, it’s a cold dish.
No need for heating, just cut into slices, eat dipped in garlic and soy sauce.”

Cai Wei gave careful instructions, then sat down with Jiujin near the charcoal basin, patiently awaiting feedback.
The shop assistant left with Cai Wei’s basket, and returned about the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn, excitedly yelling, “Miss, congratulations!
The county magistrate tried your dishes and he’s very pleased!
He specifically requested your presence.
Please, come upstairs with me immediately!”
Everything was going according to Cai Wei’s expectations.
She rose, tidied her clothes, gave some instructions to Jiujin, and headed upstairs with the shop assistant.
