Not just duck eggs, but also chicken eggs—the Field Manor raises quite a few chickens, and some of their eggs are sent to Jiweiju, Zuixian Building, and the Imperial Palace. Others are turned into century eggs, which they plan to sell during the next big promotional event.

Bei Yun was overjoyed. On the way back, he suggested to Bei Lingsu that they should just move into the Field Manor. Given her friendship with Qiao Xiaomai, whatever meals Qiao Xiaomai cooked would surely include a portion for Bei Lingsu, and by extension, for him as well.

Bei Lingsu raised an eyebrow. "...Why on earth does a grown man like you care so much about your looks? And you’re finally admitting you’re not young anymore?!"
