The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

Ji Wu felt incredibly lucky. She had expected the other party to quote an astronomical figure, and then she would desperately try to bargain.

Surprisingly, the secret recipe for red bean double-skin milk pudding was cheaper than that for peaches.

That's completely unexpected.

To prevent Miss Su from changing her mind, Ji Wu quickly sent her maid Zhuma, who was guarding the door, downstairs to get paper and pen from the shopkeeper.

"Hurry, we have to be quick."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhuma quickly brought paper and pen.

When Su Qianqian was halfway through writing the recipe, Xu Ruoxian knocked on the door of the private room.

"Miss Su, many people have come to you seeking your help to uphold justice."

Su Qianqian could hear that the noise outside was indeed quite loud.

"Miss Ji, I'll go out and take a look first. I'll come back later and finish writing the prescription."

Ji Wu looked at the half-written prescription, feeling like her heart was being scratched by a cat.

I finally managed to buy the prescription at a bargain price of five thousand taels, but then something went wrong. I hope Miss Su won't go back on her word later.

She grew up drinking milk and has a special fondness for dairy products, especially this red bean double-skin milk pudding, which is her favorite.

After returning to Western Xia, I feel like I can't survive without double-skin milk, so I must buy the recipe.

Ji Wu decided to go out and see what had happened.

If it's something that can be easily resolved, let's help resolve it together so that Miss Su can hurry back and write the prescription.

Ji Wu finished the red bean double-skin milk in two bites, put on her veil, and ran downstairs.

A large crowd of people had gathered outside the entrance of Gu's Restaurant.

The white-haired old woman, leaning on a cane, cried, "Miss Su, my house was burgled last night. All the oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar were stolen. I haven't eaten anything today, and I'm so hungry I feel dizzy."

The woman, holding two children's hands, was also in tears. "Miss Su, my house was also robbed. All our valuables were stolen, and we can't even afford to eat."

Many people also said that their homes had been burglarized, and the number of burglaries was enormous.

The third prince of the Southern Yue Kingdom stood in the crowd, his face full of doubt.

"What's going on? The people whose homes have been burglarized are not going to the authorities, but instead coming to this Miss Su for help."

A local explained, "This young man must be from out of town, so he doesn't know. Miss Su is the backbone of our people. Before, when someone was bitten by a snake, the medicine in the clinic was sold out. It was Miss Su who provided the antidote for all the people bitten by poisonous snakes free of charge."

"Recently, many people have suffered from heatstroke due to the hot weather, and it is Miss Su who provides free heat-relieving medicine. The government doesn't care about the trivial matters of ordinary people like us. So the people have a consensus: if you have any difficulties, go to Miss Su."

Su Qianqian remembered that the first old lady who spoke said she was so hungry that she felt dizzy, so she asked the waiter to bring out a pot of congee with preserved egg and lean pork.

The people of Beijing had never eaten preserved eggs before and exclaimed that they were delicious.

"What is this dark stuff in the porridge? It looks delicious."

"No wonder the Su family's restaurant is so popular; they sell rare items that we've never seen before."

Seeing that the people were eating with great relish, Ji Wu said to Zhuma, "Get me a bowl of free porridge too, and take it to my private room on the second floor."

Ji Wu's face was covered in scars, so she naturally dared not eat porridge in front of everyone and could only eat it in the private room.

The attendant of the Third Prince of Nanyue whispered mockingly, "Your Highness, look how shameless the Empress of Western Xia is, actually letting her maid serve her free porridge."

The Third Prince, Huangfu Hong, solemnly reminded him, "Anan, don't speak carelessly. It will affect the diplomatic relations between Nan Yue and Xi Xia. Go and get me a free bowl of porridge too."

When the guard Anan ran to collect the free porridge, he was almost shocked to hear the people around him say that the porridge sold for 300 coins a bowl at Gu's restaurant.

Is it really that expensive? A bowl of regular porridge only costs three coins, but Gu's porridge is selling for a hundred times the price of a regular bowl.

He glanced inside Gu's Restaurant. The food was expensive, but it was packed with people; there wasn't a single empty seat in sight. Outside, many stewards and gang leaders were queuing for a table.

Anan waited in line for almost half an hour before receiving the free porridge, which he then handed to the Third Prince.

Then he went to queue up again to get free porridge for himself.

He had just been mocking the Western Xia Empress for being shameless, but now he himself had become that shameless person.

Li Gou Dan, who works at the Ministry of Justice, arrived. The three minor officials from the Ministry of Justice who came with him heard that the free porridge was delicious, so they all ran to line up to get some.

Unfortunately, there were too many people in line, and it was unclear when it would be their turn. Hopefully, it wouldn't delay their business.

Recently, there has been a sudden increase in thefts in the capital. Since both the Western Xia and Southern Yue have people in the capital, His Majesty is afraid of losing face and has ordered the Ministry of Justice and the Five Cities Garrison to cooperate and catch the thieves within five days.

Oh, it's so difficult. They finally found a thief yesterday, but the thief was so skilled in agility that they lost him before they could even follow him for a street.

At this moment, Dong Yong came over and said to the three minor officials of the Ministry of Justice, "The mission is important. You are wasting time by queuing here."

The three minor officials were very sad. Queuing was taking up too much time, and it seemed they would never get to eat this delicious congee with preserved egg and lean pork.

It's a real pity, the locals say this porridge is exceptionally delicious.

The waiter who helped scoop the porridge served five bowls of porridge, put them on a tray, and handed them to Gou Dan.

"Brother Dog Egg, the boss said you can eat with your friends."

"Please thank Mr. Su for me," Gou Dan said, taking the tray and quickly inviting Dong Yong and his colleagues to come and eat together.

"Brothers, hurry up and eat, so we can get on with our business."

The officials were overjoyed to receive the bowls of porridge. They had thought they wouldn't get to taste it, but to their surprise, Brother Gou Dan didn't have to wait in line and received the porridge directly.

They had previously looked down on Li Gou Dan from a remote area, thinking he was unsophisticated and had never seen the world. Little did they know that they themselves were the ones who were truly unsophisticated.

The three minor officials looked at Li Gou Dan with envy.

"Brother Gou Dan, I heard that even the Empress of Western Xia and the Prince of Southern Yue have to queue up at Gu Ji's. But you're so lucky, you don't have to queue up to get your porridge."

Li Gou Dan was very proud, "I am from the same village as Su Dongjia here."

His colleagues were filled with envy, thinking that Li Gou Dan was even more impressive than their Minister and Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Dong Yong coughed twice and said, "Actually, I am quite familiar with Miss Su. My good-for-nothing son, Dong Zhu, used to work for Miss Su and was very trusted by her."

After Dong Yong said this, he, like Li Gou Dan, earned the envy of the three minor officials.

The minor officials all praised the porridge as delicious after tasting it, but lamented that one bowl was too small.

Dong Yong licked the empty bowl clean. "I think I could eat ten bowls," he said.

Any product made by Ms. Su is guaranteed to be of high quality.

It's a pity the Ministry of Justice has been too busy lately, otherwise I would have queued up to go to a restaurant and savor the food at my leisure.

Dong Yong didn't forget his business. He walked over to Su Qianqian and whispered the message: "The capital has been in chaos lately. A large number of people have been robbed, and the thieves are incredibly skilled in martial arts."
