After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 94 Am I good-looking?

"for you."

Su Xiaoxiao picked up a piece of rabbit meat with her chopsticks and brought it to Sanlang's mouth. Sanlang was stunned at first, then he opened his mouth and carefully ate it.

Honestly, Sanlang's mouth isn't actually that big for a man, but the way he shyly slits his lips like that, with his face all red, makes Su Xiaoxiao think it's actually quite cute.

Saburo instinctively covered his mouth. The cold-cooked rabbit was very spicy and fragrant, and it was also very tender in his mouth. The spiciness made Saburo's mouth feel a little numb.

After just one bite, he couldn't help but keep eating. Sanlang immediately snatched the chopsticks from Su Xiaoxiao's hand and started picking up more rabbit meat to eat. "It's so delicious, I just can't stop eating it."

Da Bao and Xiao Bao ran over at this time, eager to eat the cold-cooked rabbit. Su Xiaoxiao was afraid they would burn themselves, so she put it on a plate and blew on it to cool it down before giving it to them.

Seeing how much they enjoyed eating, Su Xiaoxiao knew that the dish must have been successfully made.

Little Peach Blossom from next door smelled the aroma too. She secretly ran over and asked Su Xiaoxiao, "Auntie, what delicious food are you making? It smells so good!"

Su Xiaoxiao invited her in.

"I made cold-served rabbit, Little Peach Blossom, come and have some!"

Little Peach Blossom ran happily into Su Xiaoxiao's yard. When Da Bao saw that it was Little Peach Blossom, he immediately wiped the oil around his mouth with his sleeve and invited her very warmly.

"Little Peach Blossom Sister, you must try this! It's cold-cooked rabbit made by my mother, it's so delicious!"

Little Peach Blossom looked at the plate in Su Xiaoxiao's hand, which was bright red and looked like it was full of chili peppers. She wondered what was so delicious about chili peppers.
Su Xiaoxiao noticed her confusion, so she used her chopsticks to pry open the chili peppers, picked out a piece of rabbit meat, and put it directly to her mouth.

Su Xiaoxiao asked her, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Little Peach Blossom answered shyly, "It's a little spicy, but it's delicious."

A bright smile appeared on Xiaotaohua's face, and Dabao also laughed happily at this moment.

Su Xiaoxiao was relieved to know that Xiao Taohua also loved the cold-cooked rabbit she made.

Just then, Wang Er walked in from outside and brought back Su Xiaoxiao's mule cart.

This morning, he was ordered by Su Xiaoxiao to take Qian Musheng home.

When he arrived at the gate of the Qian family mansion, he realized that this young master Qian was actually the second young master of a wealthy family in town. His mansion was heavily guarded, with the gate itself being as tall as a city gate tower. It was very solemn, and there were many servants guarding the gate.

Although Wang Er was not invited in, Qian Musheng still very politely gave him a tael of silver as payment for bringing him there, which made Wang Er feel very embarrassed.

"Xiaoxiao, how do you know Young Master Qian? His family is really rich."

Wang Er and Su Xiaoxiao said excitedly.

"Oh, you met them through business. Did you go into their house?"

Su Xiaoxiao asked Wang Er.

"No, but Young Master Qian was very polite and easy-going. He gave me one tael of silver as a reward before entering the mansion. I don't know if I should accept it or not. Why don't you take it and keep it for now, and return it to Young Master Qian later?"

As he spoke, Wang Er handed the one tael of silver to Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled at him.

"Brother Wang, this is a reward from Young Master Qian. You can keep it; there's no need to give it to me."

In the end, Wang Er had no choice but to accept it himself. After delivering the mule cart, he wanted to leave.

Su Xiaoxiao said to him, "Wait a minute, I made some cold-served rabbit. Take it back for Sister Sun and the children." "By the way, I'm going to start building the factory after the New Year. Brother Wang, will you come and help me then?"

Wang Er answered very readily upon hearing this.

"No problem, you're available anytime."

Wang Er is a skilled carpenter; he'll definitely be a great help when he comes.

Su Xiaoxiao packed a serving of cold-cooked rabbit and took it back to Wang Er.

The Lantern Festival was not over yet, and after the Lantern Festival, Su Xiaoxiao's factory would begin construction.

However, it is often said that holidays are easier to get through than ordinary days, and this is indeed true.

During the Lunar New Year holidays, I always felt that the days flew by so quickly.

It feels like we just finished our New Year's Eve dinner and it's already the first day of the Lunar New Year. Before we knew it, it was already the third day.

Then, after a few days of being in a daze, before you know it, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has arrived again.

This is definitely true. Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, how come the New Year in ancient times goes by so fast?
However, celebrating the New Year in ancient times gave Su Xiaoxiao a feeling of returning to the New Year celebrations of her childhood.

People in ancient times attached great importance to the Spring Festival, and the festive atmosphere was very strong, with firecrackers going off everywhere. Except for not being able to watch the Spring Festival Gala, it was pretty much the same.

When I was a child, around the 1980s or 1990s, I celebrated the Lunar New Year. Those who didn't experience it might not understand, but in the countryside, or even in the suburbs, it was a hundred times better than in the city.

There's no human touch in the city. Whether it was in the 80s or 90s or now, it all tastes the same – you just can't smell any human warmth.

Finally, even the last trace of humanity in a person will gradually fade and disappear. Just wait and see.

In ancient times, the Lantern Festival was a very important festival. As the end of the Spring Festival and the beginning of the new year, this festival was indeed very important.

There's a lantern festival in town, and Su Xiaoxiao has decided to take Sanlang, Dabao, and Xiaobao to see the lanterns this year and join in the fun.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Su Xiaoxiao took out a dark blue long gown, which she had asked Sun Shi to make for her. When Sanlang wore this dark blue long gown, he immediately transformed into the image of an ancient intellectual.

He was dressed like a quiet scholar, and Sanlang stared at the water in the well for a long time, reluctant to take it off.

Su Xiaoxiao also dressed Da Bao and Xiao Bao in beautiful new clothes. Xiao Bao wore a red flower in his hair today, which made him look especially cute.

Su Xiaoxiao also changed into a new outfit. When she and Sanlang stood there, they looked like a young lady and gentleman from a wealthy family out shopping, a very pleasing sight to behold.

"Very handsome."

Su Xiaoxiao came up to Sanlang and carefully examined his appearance. His clothes fit him perfectly, as if they were tailor-made for him.

Sanlang was quite proud of this, and like a peacock spreading its tail feathers, he tossed his hair in front of Su Xiaoxiao.

"How do I look? Don't I?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said to him, "Good-looking is used to describe young women. You should describe yourself as handsome."

"Am I handsome?"

Sanlang looked at Su Xiaoxiao with his large, affectionate eyes, and asked her earnestly.
