“Cough cough cough… What did you say? These two dishes were created by that wretch?!” exclaimed Sun from the Sun Family, clutching Sun Junyan’s arm, her veins bulging notably from the back of her hand due to her agitation.

Sun Junyan nodded, “Yes, these should be the two. They cost only five Wen each, delicious and affordable, many people are buying them. In these two days, long queues formed in front of Jiwei Residence, and I overheard someone mention that they could sell over a thousand portions daily.”

“I heard that the main ingredients for these two dishes are sweet potatoes, transforming sweet potatoes into this form, that girl Xiaomai is really brainy.”

Sun from the Sun Family was dumbstruck.

The others present were all dumbstruck, too.

They quickly calculated in their heads, a portion costing five Wen, a thousand portions would amount to five thousand Wen, adding up two dishes, that would be ten thousand Wen!

Converted into silver, that would be ten taels of silver!

Making ten taels of silver a day, good heavens!!!

“That vile girl, 1 am going to confront her!” Zhu Cuiying abruptly stood up, her buttocks still hurt from the injuries, she had pretended to be frail these past days, pushing all household chores and fieldwork unto Qiao Ying.

But looking at her now, flushed with anger, grinding her teeth, she seemed far from injured.

Her face was red with fury.

She was gritting her teeth in envy.

Dish recipes that could earn ten taels daily, that wretch must have made a fortune selling them, maybe at least a thousand taels?

No no no, a thousand taels could be earned shortly.

That wretch couldn’t be that naive, she probably made several thousand taels, inside the three-tiled rooms, probably a pile of silver!

At the thought of a mountain of glittering silver, Zhu Cuiying not only flushed, but her eyes were also red.

She was even having trouble breathing!

“Confront her! Indeed, that heartless girl is hoarding piles of silver and only willing to give us a hundred Wen, utterly disrespectful!” Sun from the Sun Family also stood up angrily.

“Stop!” Qiao Qinghe’s face darkened, “How much silver she makes, what’s that to do with you two? Especially you, the oldest, a grown woman, what do you intend to do by confronting her? You once reached into Changsun’s house, have you forgotten those dozens of strokes by the Village Chief?”

“Dad, I’m considering for you and mom, look at our meals, then look at Changsun’s, there’s absolutely no way we should be eating frugally while they dine on delicacies!” being scolded, Zhu Cuiying wisened up and used Qiao Qinghe and Sun from Sun Family as her shield.

“Eating plain food?” Qiao Qinghe’s face darkened even more, “Point to me, out of all the dishes on this table, which one is plain, which one is wild.”

Zhu Cuiying, “….I was merely speaking for effect, even though we don’t have plain or wild food, our living condition, compared to Changsun’s, is far less well-off, you and mum are older, Changsun should offer you gifts, it’s only fair and right.”

Anping Village is adjacent to Bailu Town, buying, selling and working are all convenient, except for the especially lazy, the villagers of Anping Village lead decent lives.

However, due to Sun Junyan’s presence, the Qiao Family’s living condition is a bit tighter compared to the others.

Except for when Sun Junyan comes back home, it was rare to see meat dishes on the table.

Now that Qiao Xiaomai’s house has got a pile of silver, they must be enjoying sumptuous meals daily, how could the younger generation be dining on luxurious food while the elders make do with coarse tea and light meals! “Exactly!” Sun from Sun Family echoed Zhu Cuiying’s words. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Qiao Meipan also nodded vigorously, she wanted to marry Tong Sanlang, yet now Qiao Xiaomai used some unknown means to hook up with this handsome young man, she had the strong urge to choke life out of Qiao Xiaomai!
