On the sixth day of the first lunar month, An Jing invited the folks from Shi Xiaolan's house to have a meal at her place. Others had invited them to eats, and surely, they couldn't just accept a free meal without returning the favor. However, Yun Dame and her family didn't come, only Shi Xiaolan and An Fu showed up.
At the dining table, An Jing spoke to Shi Xiaolan and An Fu about her plan to open a rice shop and expressed her hope that An Fu would lend a hand at the rice shop when the time came; Shi Xiaolan could also help by keeping an eye on the shop.
An Fu and Shi Xiaolan had initially planned to continue selling tofu for a living this year. However, they were aware that the tofu business was not easy. Even though Wang Youbao would occasionally buy tofu from them, it wasn't as much as An Jing had bought the previous year. Their sales were enough to get by, but they couldn't save any money.
