The docks of Qing Shui Town were as busy as always, with ships coming and going ; merchant ships leaving and passenger ships coming.

Qing Shui Town at best was only a supply station. The region was small and not very crowded. People usually didn't stay here for too long. It was just a place to get some food and rest.

Gradually, however, as Zhong Ziqi and Zhao Zheng'an's business grew bigger and bigger, and the more prosperous it had become. Many merchants who come here have heard about it. They heard that Qing Shui Town had produced some particularly delicious food that people wanted to eat again and again.

So many merchant ships chose to stop at Qing Shui Town, and then, after asking around, they found the 'Quite Delicious' restaurant. After a meal, those people approached Wang Jicheng, wanting him to provide more supply of fried dough twists and deep-fried breadsticks for them to eat on the way.

Naturally, Wang Jicheng wouldn't put the business out of business.


When one of the merchants said it was delicious, he would spread the words all over the place. Going through the publicity given by one merchant to other merchants, soon, one after another, the merchant ships that reach the shore would go to Wang Jicheng there to buy a large batch of food.

In this way, the town of Qing Shui became more and more lively. All the merchant ships passing by would go to 'Quite Delicious' or Wang Jicheng's place there to buy a batch of food to take it away with them.

It was a 'moderate wind, beautiful sun'1' day, where the sun shone brightly, the weather was good when another passenger ship from the southern part of the country docked at the south pier of Qing Shui Town.


The people on board, one after another, got off the boat. The last to disembark were two middle-aged couples in their forties. They were dressed in ordinary clothes. On the other hand, the man's Fu Lang looked very pretty and still had a lot of charm at his age.

They were followed by two other people on their backs. One was an older man, about the same age as the two people in front of him and the other one was a young lad probably in his twenties ...

Many passers-by kept gawking at them, mainly because the forty-something year old Amu looked so conspicuous.

"Master, madam, right now the little young master and the others should not be in the town. You and Madam, please wait here for a while. This subordinate will go and get a carriage." An ordinary-looking, sturdy man with an expressionless face bent down and said respectfully, if Zhong Ziqi and the others were here they would have recognized that this man was none other than Shen Yu Bei's trusted aide.

And the two people called by Hong Ying as Master and Madam were exactly no other than Zhong Ziqi's maternal grandparents. After a long and difficult trek of journey, they had finally arrived in Qing Shui Town.

"Let's go together!" Father Shen waved his hand for him to lead the way.

"Master, you walk slowly!" Shen Amu hurriedly held Father Shen's arm.

"That's right, Master. Let's walk slowly without hurry. It's more important to pay attention to your health."

That man in his forties said smilingly. He was the head butler of the Shen Family's residence and had been serving Father Shen for more than thirty years, so he had always been loyal and devoted. Everything regarding the Shen Family, whether it was big or small matters, had to go through his hands first.
