Li Yibao weighed a wild pheasant and said, “Two and a half jin.”
My second brother sells wild chickens at twelve cents per jin,” Su Qingyue asked, “How much do you sell them for?”
“Of course, I sell at the same price as Dashan.” He held the pheasant upside down and handed it to her, “The wild chicken is dead, but it was just killed. It’s still fresh.’
“No problem.” Su Qingyue took out thirty copper coins.
Li Yibao counted them and then asked, “Is Dashan alright after being bitten by a poisonous snake?”
“The snake venom has subsided, but he fell down the mountain and broke his leg. He’ll need to rest for a couple of months.”
“Your Dashan is very capable. If not for his misfortune, he would be a great hunter, and there would be no need for you to buy prey to eat.”
“Hehe, in a while, my second brother will be well, and I’ll have prey to eat again.”
Li Yibao continued, “Xiao’s wife, I heard that you earned fifty taels by selling the fern dish recipe. Is that true?”
“True,” she replied, “But I’ve almost spent all the silver taels.” “Really?” He obviously didn’t believe she had spent it all.
Su Qingyue smiled and walked away with the pheasant.
Li Wang’s wife came out of the house, watching Su Qingyue walk away, and complained to Li Yibao, “When the Old Lady of the Zhu Family wanted to sell Su Qingyue, the selling price was only sixteen taels, half the market price. I told you to buy her back then, even if your son doesn’t marry her, it would be good to sell her again. Look how smart Su Qingyue is, and now she can make money, we can’t buy her back even if we want to. A few days ago, we were talking about finding a wife for our son, we don’t know how much betrothal gifts the girl’s family will demand. Xiao Family really got a great deal buying Su
Qingyue…”
“How many times have you complained about this?” Li Yibao became impatient, “If we didn’t buy her back then, we didn’t buy her. Our family didn’t have such good luck, can you stop bothering me? I said it at that time, you can buy her or not. You said Su Qingyue wasn’t good enough for our son, you decided not to buy her…”
“I regret it now, she’s earned fifty taels, so much…’
“There is no such thing as regret medicine. Don’t bring it up again, if it’s brought up, all the money Su Qingyue earned would have flown away, it’s so annoying…”
Su Qingyue didn’t know that Li Yibao’s family was still thinking about buying her back then. She happily carried the wild pheasant and the two large bunches of vegetables bought from Zhang Shun’s wife back to the Xiao Family.
“Wife, did you go and buy some prey?” Xiao Yuchuan looked at the pheasant in her hand. “We have a delicious meal for lunch, but I feel bad for your money…”
Before Xiao Yishan got injured, he was very good at hunting and thought that buying a pheasant was wasteful, but he let it pass since his wife liked it.
At noon, a bowl of stewed chicken, a plate of vegetables, and a bowl of fried fish were placed on the table by the bed in the Xiao’s master bedroom. The bowls of refined rice were filled with fragrant white rice. freewebnoveℓ.com
A bowl of fragrant rice was served in front of everyone.
Even the little bastard had a bowl of meat soup. Su Qingyue removed the bones from a few pieces of chicken and gave it to him. He was too small to eat bones, they might get stuck.
Xiao Yuchuan picked up the bowl of white rice and sniffed it, “Wife, this refined rice smells so good, I almost don’t want to eat this beautiful white rice. Wife, do you know? Our family hasn’t eaten refined rice for more than four years.”
“Mm-hmm.” She nodded, “Fourth brother told me.”
Xiao Yishan looked at the table full of food. For the poor Xiao family, this was indeed a very lavish meal.
He thought that he and Chuan would collapse and their family would run out of food, but he didn’t expect his wife to be so capable..
