Everyone was excited when Su Binglan mentioned fried cicadas. Su Wenzhe felt enthusiastic as he said, “All right, we’ll eat cicadas tonight.”

Initially, he felt lazy after eating and drinking to his heart’s content. He even wanted to rest for a while.

Su Fengmao chuckled. “Speaking of cicadas reminded me of my childhood. I used to catch and roast cicadas with your Uncle Fengzhang and Fengzi. We didn’t have much oil then, so we didn’t fry them. Still, the cicadas were crispy.”

Shen Qiuhua nodded. “Binglan, your grandparents and uncles used to make roasted cicadas for me, too.’

Su Wenzhe said, “I’ll make noodles later. We can put them on a bamboo stick and stick them together. There are a lot of cicadas in the middle of the day.”

Su Binglan smiled, saying, “That sounds pretty troublesome and time-consuming. We don’t need to do that. We’ll start a fire by the pond at night. The cicadas will fly into it, and we’ll just pick them up.”

Su Wenzhe was surprised. “We can do that? I never thought about that method before. ”

He remembered using bamboo sticks with his friends to catch cicadas. Even so, they worked hard all afternoon but only caught a few. If one were not skilled enough, they would accidentally allow the cicadas to escape.

Shen Qiuhua patted his back. “Your sister’s methods always work. She’s making it easier for us.”

Su Binglan nodded. “Yeah, we’ll get many more cicadas that way. Then, we’ll simply fry them until they’re crispy. Besides, it’s easy to fry cicadas, so I’ll make more and send them to the others.’

“Don’t forget to give some to your grandpa and the others, too.”

Su Binglan would think of everyone whenever she cooked something new. After all, the family doted on her. “I’ll also stir-fry more snails for Grandpa and Grandma tonight.”

She still had some snails soaking in clean water and could cook them later.

Everyone agreed to Su Binglan’s arrangements and looked forward to dinner. The family did not regard catching cicadas together as work. Instead, it resembled a bonding experience for them.

Everyone was excited about doing such an activity together.

After resting for a while, Su Binglan prepared to visit the farm. Shen Qiuhua said, “I’ll come with you, Binglan.”

Checking on the fields also resembled having fun as the family might be able to see something new. Liu Yinyin lit up, wanting to follow her sister-in-law. However, the former felt it was inappropriate to ask for Su Binglan’s permission.

Su Xuehai said, “1 want to follow Aunt Binglan, too!”

Su Wenzhe said, “Yeah, we have nothing to do anyway. We want to check out the farm, too. We’ve never seen it before.’

Su Binglan’s farm was in the valley north of town and was quite a distance away from Su Teng Village. That was why the family had yet to visit the farm.

Liu Yinyin said smilingly, “l want to take a look, too.”

Su Binglan noticed everyone’s excited expressions. She said, “Sure, we can go together. It won’t be too hot or tiring if we take the carriage.”

She had decorated the family carriage and added small drawers to store food and drinks. Moreover, the contractors had rebuilt the roads with cement, making it easier for the carriage to move.

The whole family sat in the carriage as if they were out on a trip. Although the farm was not far from the town, it was faster to travel by carriage. Even Su Wenxiu followed along.

Of course, it was only natural for Luo Jin’an to follow his wife wherever she went. Su Binglan even felt a sense of security with him beside her. She could feel how much she needed her husband.

“It’s so good to have you back, Binglan.”

The family was in awe of the buildings as the carriage passed by Su Teng Village’s development site.

“These buildings look magnificent. There are so many visitors now. It’s just that there aren’t enough places for them to live in town. Most of them live in the village.”

“It’s nice to visit Tenghe Town. There’s so much food and entertainment here. Still, it’s a different crew from Xiaoxun’s now. Even so, the plays are just as enjoyable as last time.”

Su Binglan explained, “Xiaoxun’s crew now performs in the capital. She was the one who trained the new crew that performs in the village. She brought them along whenever she performed.

“The girl who plays the main character now is Xiaoxun’s understudy. Even if Xiaoxun performs in the capital now, she has two understudies.”

Su Binglan guessed Yang Xiaoxun would act in fewer plays after marrying Chen Chengkang, the second young master of the Duke of Chen’s estate. By then, Yang Xiaoxun!s understudies would take over.

Shen Qiuhua was impressed, saying, “l didn’t expect Xiaoxun to be an expert now. She even has understudies. She performed so well when she first started.’

Su Binglan said, “She’s very hardworking and spends most of her time on rehearsals. Even if she misses a day, she’ll practice her lines alone. She’s highly talented, too.”

Su Binglan remembered when she first met Yang Xiaoxun. The former felt Yang Xiaoxun was a quick learner and had an excellent voice. Even her tune and lyrics were melodious.

“Everyone adored her when she was here. Some people would be excited for several days if she spoke to them.”

“Her acting is fantastic. She draws us in whenever she acts. I think she was born to be a performer.”

Su Binglan smiled, thinking everyone looked like they were fangirling. Of course, no one in this era knew what that meant. Even so, they enjoyed watching plays at the Grand Theater.

The family saw many people lining up outside the cold noodles shop as the carriage passed by. Shen Qiuhua said, “It’s such a hot day, so everyone’s queueing up at the entrance.”

“It’s because of how delicious Liangpi is,” Su Fengmao added, “We would have needed to queue up like them if we couldn’t have it at home.”

Su Wenxiu said, “It’s already past noon, yet there’s still a queue.”

Su Binglan smiled and said, “I’ll get someone to put a parasol at the entrance. Then, everyone can line up under it and stay shaded. After all, both sides of the streets are spacious.”

Liu Yinyin noticed some of the people wearing certain clothes. “Look at the clothes some of them are wearing. They should be tourists, right?” Su Binglan raised her brow, saying, “Those should be nomads..”
