Su Xiaoqi was unaware of Shen Yun’s thoughts. She tossed and turned on the bed, contemplating her jinxing attribute.
Connecting the recent events with the wild boar’s sudden collision with the millstone, Su Xiaoqi patted her chest and thought to herself:
“Could it be that Shen Yun is a jinx specifically for me, turning my bad luck into good?”
If that were the case, perhaps she could consider staying until she figured out a way to deal with her jinxing.
The next day, as dawn broke, Su Xiaoqi appeared in the kitchen.
She wanted to take out the rice and flour to prepare breakfast before everyone else woke up.
She didn’t want to eat the dark flour buns or flatbreads made by Shen Xiaomei. No matter how good the cooking, the ingredients were crucial.
When Shen Xiaomei entered, rubbing her eyes, she saw that the wild vegetable congee and white flour steamed buns were already prepared, and a pot of pig trotters soup was also simmering.

Xiaomei, don’t worry about the food from now on. I’ve got it all covered.”
“But sister-in-law, the white rice and flour you have will eventually run out,” Shen Xiaomei, naturally kind and considerate of others, said.
Su Xiaoqi didn’t want to have to explain every time they ate decent food, so she decided to settle it once and for all:
“Xiaomei, don’t forget, I come from the wealthiest family in Mianzhou, the Su family, and I have plenty of dowry. Once this is finished, we’ll buy more.”
