After Dengdeng was sound asleep, Bai Ruozhu returned to the main hall: there was still some dinner left for her, but it had turned cold. She reluctantly reheated the food and ate it in the kitchen.
Only after finishing her meal, did she remember about the medicinal soup. She hurried to ask the family members about it. Since the season was dry and autumnal, the medicinal soup she made was to humidify and reduce internal heat. Her family could not immediately feel these effects, but they found the soup especially delicious.
Bai Ruozhu was content with this. She knew it would not be feasible to sell such a large quantity of medicinal soup on the streets: the costs would be too high.
"Father, mother, I am thinking of setting up a small business after the autumn harvest," Bai Ruozhu said.
