Qin Zhenzhen enhanced the hangover soup by adding spirit water.

After serving a bowl to Su Bin, she personally escorted the old woman to Qin Sanlong’s room.

Observing her efforts, Qin Sanlong expressed concern, questioning why she had taken the trouble to come personally.

With a smile, Qin Zhenzhen replied, “I was concerned you might not drink it, so I came to supervise you.”

She further explained the potential harm excessive drinking could inflict on the body, emphasizing the importance of consuming the hangover soup to avoid discomfort throughout the night. Qin Zhenzhen shared her modern understanding that drinking taxed the liver the most, requiring it to work overtime to break down alcohol. The long-term consequences could lead to liver lesions.

Aware that ancient people might lack this knowledge, viewing those who could hold their liquor well as heroes, Qin Sanlong obediently finished the wine soup. He admitted with embarrassment, “Little Sister, I won’t do it again.”

Understanding his reference to persuading Su Bin to drink, Qin Zhenzhen reassured him with a smile.

“I understand what you mean. You are worried that I might face difficulties with Su Bin.”

“Third Brother, there’s no need to worry. Su Bin is actually very good to me. I will take good care of myself, ensuring Father, Mother, and Brothers don’t have to worry.”

Su Qing and Qin Sanlong departed from Shanglin Prefecture on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, leaving Su Cheng behind.

Having pursued studies diligently in Meijiang Prefecture City, Su Cheng had now attained a role as a small manager. While his comprehension was slightly inferior to Su Ning’s, his focus was on management, distinct from Su Ning’s technological pursuits.

With the siblings spending their days together, the Lantern Festival approached.

On this day, Su Bin granted all the bailiffs a day off, including himself, with only two guards remaining for emergencies.

As Shanglin Prefecture continued on its positive trajectory, the number of lawbreakers diminished.

In the early morning, Su Bin woke up and directed the servants to hang lanterns in the backyard, each marked with riddles and corresponding prizes for the night’s festivities.

Some riddles were from Su Bin, others from Qin Zhenzhen, and each lantern carried the promise that the correct guesser would claim both the lantern and its associated prize.

Su Bin reminded Su Ning specifically, “You can’t ask your third sister-in-law for the answer.’

Su Ning playfully agreed, “Fine, I won’t ask. Don’t underestimate me. I’ll win the prize fair and square!”

Qin Zhenzhen, with her big belly, admired the lanterns. Su Bin remained by her side, relishing the tranquility of their life away from the capital. If given the choice, he would prefer not to return.

Yet, Su Bin understood that even if he wished to avoid returning to the capital, its affairs would inevitably entangle him. Having already become a target of the Public House, he faced the risk of either being utilized or annihilated by them.

Adding to his concerns, the Crown Prince harbored inappropriate intentions toward his wife.

Recent reports from the capital indicated that the emperor, unable to tolerate the Public House any longer, openly clashed with them in the court due to disagreements. Eventually, he deployed the imperial authority to assert dominance over the Public House.

However, Su Bin was acutely aware that despite the appearance of victory for the emperor, he was actually steering closer to a perilous path. If he were in the emperor’s position, he would either bear the grievances silently or decisively crush the Public House to address the issue.

Unfortunately, the emperor paid no heed to the counsel of those around him..
