Chapter 258 - My family’s Lan’er and Zhi’er
Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can't Afford To Offend!
The coachman nodded his head and immediately took out a small purse bag from his sleeves, then handed it to Bai Zhi: âMiss Bai, this is money that the treasurer asked me to give you. Itâs a total of 5 silver coins, the treasurer said the price will be the same next delivery.â
Hu Changlinâs eyes widen in shock: â5 silver coins?â
The coachman opened his mouth again: âYes, 5 silver coins, I was shocked when I first hear it too. 100 pounds of melons cost 5 silvers coins. Once I get back home, I will tell my wife to plant melons next year.â
Bai Zhi readily accepted the money. Their payment was indeed much higher than the market price, but she gave four new menus to the restaurant, which was priceless.
The restaurant will earn much more than 5 silver coins with those four new menus. So this transaction is a win-win solution for both parties.
Boss Chen boss is really interesting!
Hu Feng helped the coachman to move the melon to his carriage. And then, went up to their carriage.
Two carriages, left Huangtou Village one after another.

As soon as Bai Zhi left, Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu went to the cabin house where the mother and daughter lived. The door of the cabin house was open. A woman was crouching in front of the door washing the clothes.
Mrs. Liu went close and asked: âWhere is Zhao Lan?â
Zhao Sue looked up and saw two women looking at her badly. She stood up and answered: âLanâer is not here. She went outside, why are you looking for her?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mrs. Liu stepped forward and walked around Zhao Sue. She looked at her from head to foot: âWho are you? What are you doing here?â
Zhao Sue replied: âIâm staying here in Lanerâs house for the time being. My daughter is sick and we donât have a place to go. Zhiâer is very kind, she let us stay here until my daughter recover.â
Mrs. Liu coldly snorted: âShe is kind, she has money to help irrelevant people!â
Old Lady Bai coldly glared at Zhao Sue, as if Zhao Sue ate their Bai Familyâs food.
âDonât talk about this first, go and look for that dead girl first and ask for money.â Old Lady Bai said and pulled Mrs. Liu towards Hu Changlinâs house.
At this time, Hu Changlin was alone in their house.
âHu Changlin, where is my familyâs Lanâer and Zhiâer?â Old Lady Bai said while trying to squeeze a smile on her face, in front of Hu Changlinâs courtyard.
Your familyâs Lanâer and Zhiâer?
Hu Changlin almost laughed, as if it was the best joke he had heard in his entire life.
âIs there something you need? Why are you looking for them?â Hu Changlin asked.
Mrs. Liu said: âOf course, there is something we need. If not, why would we look for them early this morning?â
Hu Changlin shrugged his shoulder: âUnfortunately, Zhiâer went to the town, she will not come back any sooner. She might be here at night time.â
Mrs. Liuâs face drastically changed. She pushed open the gate of the courtyard and asked: âWhat about Zhao Lan? Is Zhao Lan there?â
Hu Changlin shook his head: âShe went outside to work, I donât know when she will come back.â At this time, Zhao Lan and Awu were giving breakfast to the workers in the construction site. She was busy. She doesnât have time to deal with these two evil women.
Mrs. Liu looked at the old lady and said: âNiang, what should we do?â The old lady promised to look for a doctor to cure Bai Dazhuâs legs, but she couldnât bear to take out her money. She thought of Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan, but the two were not here. She doesnât know what to do. Bai Dazhu fainted twice in so much pain earlier.
Old Lady Bai was also so anxious inside her heart. After all, Bai Dazhu was her most valued son and Bai Xiaofengâs father. She doesnât want anything to happened to him, but she only has few silvers, which was reserved for Bai Xiaofengâs schooling.
