132 One With Each Other


    Su Binn looked at the surrounding furnishings and said, “You’re right, Mother. We need to save the province too.”


    Shen Qiuhua nodded in agreement and said, “One has to earn and save money to live. Only then can one spend the money they saved. It’s better to have some for a rainy day too.”


    Su Binn understood her mother’s thoughts. The people of that era were more conservative with everything, even their consumption. Many saved money and were unwilling to spend it.


    Despite that, the vigers of Su Teng Vige nted a year’s worth of crops and only sold them during the autumn harvest so they could have some spare change. They saved as much as possible and only bought some goods during the New Year.


    !!


    The New Year was a festive time, and adults and children alike looked forward to it because they could wear new clothes and eat new foods.


    Su Binn was also looking forward to spending the New Year in this era. She thought it would be exceptionally lively.


    Su Binn said, “When our shop makes money, we should save a portion of it so we can open another one.”


    “Okay, Binn. I will follow your lead.” Shen Qiuhua would listen to whatever her daughter said. The entire Su family would support Su Binn unconditionally.


    Su Binn looked at Luo Jin’an beside her. The man would typically help her discreetly and seldom spoke, so Su Binn could never guess what he was thinking.


    Although Luo Jin’an was only Su Binn’s husband because of an arrangement, they were still a family, and she respected him very much.


    Su Binn approached her husband and asked in a low voice, “Husband, do you have any thoughts or opinions about what I said?”


    Luo Jin’an paused what he was doing when he heard his wife’s question. After some thought, he said, “You can do whatever you want to.”


    Su Binn responded smilingly, “S-So, you’re supporting my decisions, right?”


    She knew she could change Luo Jin’an’s personality. He was sullen and arrogant at times, even cold and mysterious, making it harder for Su Binn to figure out his thoughts.


    Still, she felt that her husband had truly supported her inwardly, but he did not want to say it aloud. Nheless, Su Binn only wanted to ask Luo Jin’an for his thoughts and opinions to understand his thinking more.


    Luo Jin’an was also a typical over-thinker who sometimes drowned in his thoughts, so Su Binn liked teasing him.


    Luo Jin’an did not want to respond to Su Binn, but he sighed discreetly when his gaze met his wife’s. Then he said with his thin lips, “Yes.”


    Although it was just a brief reply, Su Binn was still thrilled after she finally understood some of her husband’s thoughts.


    Shen Qiuhua added, “Your lives as a couple will increasingly improve.”


    Her words shocked the couple.


    ‘Should we be one with each other?’


    Soon after, the family was ready to ept their customers. Su Binn opened the doors and told Lin Zheng, Li Shi, and Zhou Shan to set off the firecrackers outside.


    She went to the door and said, “That marks the grand opening for Binn’s Desserts and Su’s Tofu! Pleasee in! We have free samples, and it’s firste, first-served! We also have a 20% discount on everything today, with price tags for the food. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask us!”


    …


    Su Binn made a short announcement and let everyone into the shop. The townsfolk flooded the store because the free samples were on a firste, first-served basis.


    However, Su Binn had told everyone to line up and enter in an orderly fashion. Although there were many people, Su Binn had them under control. Still, everyone could not help but exim in surprise when they entered the shop and looked around.
