Chapter 1141 – Night Sweats?
As for the ingredients, some of it might not be available in the market even if you have spirit stones. Yet the buns made were sold for ten or five cents apiece…
Huan Qing Yan wanted to laugh when she thought about it. This was very good, a very nice display of character.
This was the magnanimous setup she wanted!
“Little Treasure, the money we earn from selling will be our family’s fortune. You will be taking care of it. When we fill this chest with coins, we will leave Nameless Town and go to another place that is even more fun. How about it?”
“Okay, Mother.” Little Treasure replied enthusiastically.
Right, before they leave, he would undoubtedly teach that little la.s.s who had called him demon a lesson! And steal all her underlings! Humph!

Whilst Huan Qing Yan was trying to teach her son about calculation with the money earned…
The people who visited the Snack Bar and those who purchased buns were developing all sorts of reactions.
The backyard of Squire w.a.n.g.
w.a.n.g Niu Niu was throwing a huge temper, the food on the table was pierced by her fork, it looked as though she wanted to drill holes into them.
“I do not want to eat this, I want to eat the meat bun from the morning! Go and buy some for me…”
The serving maid, Xiao Cui, replied awkwardly, “Young Lady, the buns have sold out and closed shop, there is no more. Why not this servant go and make some for you now?”
“No, the buns that you people make are disgusting!”
Xiao Cui replied, “Then, this servant will go buy some for you tomorrow…”
“Can’t you buy more of such delicious buns?”
“We will make sure to buy more tomorrow!” Xiao Cui was unwilling to say that it was because the buns were twice the usual price. The Second Madam would be displeased if she found out they had bought such expensive buns.
Although such spending would not make a dent on the w.a.n.g Family’s wealth, the Second Madam likes to nitpick at such small matters to have a sense of existence.
The Second Madam was also starting to interfere in more and more matters of Niu Niu as well.
The First Madam has been sickly for a long time; that was why the First Concubine, Madam Liu, was in charge of the affairs in the w.a.n.g Family. She also received great adoration from the Master.
If they were to inform First Madam about such minor matters, it would only cause more burdens on her.
The Young Lady was still young, she might not understand even if they explained things to her, so Xiao Cui could only coax her instead.
Niu Niu smiled widely when she got the promise from the serving maid, “Buy some more tomorrow, I want to give Mama some to try. This might help Mama recover faster.”
The serving maid quickly replied, “Yes. Young Lady is so filial.”
After finally coaxing the Young Lady to finish her meal, it was time for her afternoon nap.
The serving maids prepared blankets, a water basin and fresh clothes while coaxing their Young Lady to take her nap.
The First Madam has a weak physique; while her daughter, the Young Lady, also had a congenital condition of having night sweats whenever she fell asleep. This condition was something even the doctors within the region were unable to cure.
However, after Niu Niu slept today. The rare situation of no sweat was not seen, this startled the two serving maids…
“Why is Young Mistress not sweating today? This is so strange!”
“Exactly, does Young Lady’s physique improve as she grows older?”
“Her physique should worsen as she grew older, Young Lady was fine when she was young! However, this is good news. Let me inform Madam later to improve her mood…”
“I think it is better to observe a few more days. Madam’s condition requires peace and should not be disturbed casually. I will be a.s.signed to another courtyard from tomorrow onwards. You are the only one left to take care of the Young Lady.”
“Okay.”
The two serving maids were both happy and worried.
Beside the Snack Bar, stayed an old man with the surname of Tian. Due to his old age, one of his legs was no longer as it used to be. On the first day, he managed to obtain a free bun. On the second day, he bought another bun because of the contented look of Da Niu when he was eating one. Today, he noticed that his walk was much more comfortable than before. When he thought back, he did not recall eating any medicine or tonics. The only difference was eating the two buns from next door over two days, can it be…
