âOh, you applied medicine, huh?â Su Qingyue answered honestly.
âWhen you were with the Zhu Family, the Old Lady of Zhu family took you to the doctor to treat your facial sore and applied medicine, but it didnât heal. Does medicine help?â Wang Qigu mocked, âOr is it just a waste of money?â
Su Qingyue couldnât be bothered to argue, Wang Cuihua was also frightened by her face. Taking a closer look, it was just medicine applied on the pus sores, âQingyue, is your face okay?â
She shook her head, âDonât worry, Iâm fine. Itâll heal after some time.â
âIt can really heal?â
âYeah.â
âWell, thatâs good.â Wang Cuihua was reassured.
Su Qingyue took out the broken silver coins she had prepared before, and handed them to Wang Cuihua in a basket,âThis is the one and a half taels of silver I owe your family. I wanted to return it to your family yesterday, but Iâve been so tired these few days. I have been busy from dawn to dusk, completely exhausted, falling asleep as soon as I lay down. Just when I was thinking of sending back the cotton wadding and seasonings I bought, I ran into you. Take the money first.â
Wang Cuihua quickly waved her hand, âItâs fine to owe it for a while; no rush.â
Before, Wang Cuihua had tried various ways to make her pay back. However, Qingyue also understood peopleâs situations, âItâs my debt, so of course, I should repay.â
After Wang Cuihua accepted it, she touched the pocket on her body, âYou owed a total of one and a half taels. You have already paid back 100 cents, so I need to find you 100 cents. I didnât bring any money with me, Iâll get it for you when I go homeâ¦â
âNo need, use those 100 cents to buy something delicious for your son Fuwa.â
âHow can that beâ¦â
âWhy not?â Su Qingyue said sincerely, âYour husband is good buddies with Yuchuan, as an aunt, itâs my duty to buy something for Fuwa. Donât refuse it; donât be a stranger.â
âThank you so much.â Wang Cuihua was quite moved by her words.
âItâs nothing.â Qingyue waved her hand.
âHeh yeah! The wife of the Xiao Family is so generous; no wonder sheâs really making money!â A villager was very jealous, âOnly after a few days, she can pay back one and a half taelsâ¦â
âShe might have earned four or five taels these few daysâ¦â
âSheâs so good at making money!â The villagers on the scene were particularly envious.
Wang Cuihua pinched the one and a half taels of silver that Qingyue had repaid, and regretted in her heart that she had mistakenly listened to her grandmotherâs words before. Fearful that Qingyue couldnât pay back the money, she had repeatedly pressured her. But given her family Fuquanâs relationship with Chuan and the help, she received from the Xiao family, she might have even asked for the fried fern recipe. However, the matter of her grandmother forcing her to pay back the money created a hurdle, making her family too ashamed to even ask for the recipe from the Xiao family. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qian Zhang, who was famously stingy in the village, looked at Su Qingyue and came over. She gazed at the ten bales of cotton wadding on the cowâs car, âSuch white cotton ⦠it must be expensiveâ¦â
She reached out and touched it, âItâs so warm ⦠in winter, itâll be so comfortable ⦠this cotton must be a premium item, at least more than one tael per bale, right?â
âThe cotton is good, but itâs combined with the padding and cover wadding, which is just over one tael per bale,â Su Qingyue nodded.
âSo, just the cotton wadding alone would be worth five to six taels â¦â The guys gathered around the cowâs car, discussing it with their many mouths, âAnd thereâre so many seasonings, soy sauce, Sichuan peppercorns â¦â
âSu Qingyue, how much money have you made in the past few days?â Qian Zhang was so jealous her eyes turned red.
Su Qingyue just smiled and didnât answer.
âTell us the recipe, and Iâll give you 300 cents â¦â
âIâll give 400 cents â¦â
Everyone asked her for the recipe again, and several people were discussing it. âThe wife of the Xiao Family, letâs all share in the wealth.â
