Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

105 Acceptance

Shao Dalang said, “Fifth Sister-in-law doesn’t joke around. When she makes a promise, she definitely sticks to it.”

Ms. Xu nodded and smiled. “Then we will have 20 liang altogether, and we… we are going to have savings of our own!”

“Yes!” Shao Dalang smiled with brightened eyes.

They sold a lot of plants this time, and the weight became 268 kgs. Manager Qin counted it as 270 kgs instead.

The payment was 1,080 liang altogether.

Manager Qin’s eyes almost popped out, and he asked his assistant to serve them tea. He said in a flattering tone, “Mr. Shao and Mrs. Shao, how much more of this do you have?”

Qiao Xuan thought for a while. “Similar to this amount, not too much!”

It was wild-growing and the production wasn’t that great.

Otherwise 20 mu of gastrodia elata would have led them to great fortune.

“Good, good!” Manager Qin said with a smile. “We want it all, we buy it at this price, okay?”

Qiao Xuan smiled. “Okay!”

Qiao Xuan gave Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao 100 liang each. It was they who kept Qiao Xuan company when she found gastrodia elata and they deserved to have this much share.

The two of them accepted the money happily.

Qiao Xuan gave nothing to Shao Yunduan, but asked him with a smile. “I can keep it for you, and you can turn to me, when you need money, alright?”

Shao Yunduan suddenly thought of how his mother guarded the money at home, and how his sister-in-law watched out for the savings, so he wondered what she meant…

But Shao Yunduan cut off the suspicion and nodded. “Okay…”

Qiao Xuan chuckled and stuffed the money into her arms.

Back at home, they started to divide the money.

They gave Shao Dalang, Mrs. Xu and Shao Sanlang ten liang each and they would receive ten liang more the following day.

Ms. Xu was so happy that her eyes sparkled. She thanked her constantly and wondered where she should keep the money.

Shao Sanlang was glad as well. He had the money! And he was going to sell more of this plant with his brother tomorrow as well!

He was going to buy a lot of good food! Like braised pork, roasted chicken, big ducks and all kinds of delicious meat dishes from Restaurant Yanhe, some candied sugar-coated dried fruits from dim sum shops, melon seeds and peanuts and so on…

He was going to buy a lot!

Ah, it made him so happy!

Qiao Xuan gave 100 liang to Ms. Fang as well.

Ms. Fang accepted the money when Shao Yunduan told her to.

Qiao Xuan could not help but smile. “Mom, I really admire you for how you deal with different things! I am so glad to have a mother-in-law like you!”

Ms. Fang was not greedy at all, which Qiao Xuan appreciated greatly.

“Honestly, you girl!” Ms. Fang chuckled. “It is Duan’s honor to have married you! But you are right, I am not greedy!”

“I feel so glad to have you here.”

“Yes!” Qiao Xuan smiled. “Mom, you are kind and friendly, and you will certainly have a lot of good fortune!”

“Hahaha! That is great!” Ms. Fang laughed loudly.

Shao Yunduan. “…”

He almost believed that he was the extra one…

The following day, they worked hard and earned 1,260 liang after the sale.

Qiao Xuan gave 100 liang to Ms. Fang, Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao each, and gave 20 liang to Shao Sanlang, Shao Dalang and Mrs. Xu respectively.
