After Transmigrating, Her Son Takes the Imperial Exam While She Writes Storybooks

(No system, no cheat, no troublesome relatives, no CP.) Li Yu was very capable. Her childhood spent as a 'left-behind child' made her yearn more for home and a life of financial freedom. La...

Chapter 48: Making Your Own Skin Unpresentable

After closing the stall, Li Yu asked Lin Hai and Lin Jiang to store the ox cart first.

Then the family ate shredded pork noodles at the noodle stall next door. While eating, he said to the others: "Let's just have a quick lunch today. I'll make you something delicious when we get home tonight. Tomorrow, for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the stall won't be open. Lin Hai will accompany Yang Liu to visit your father-in-law's house."

"Thank you, mother." Yang looked up and said to her. "Why thank you? This is the right thing to do. Come on and eat." Li Yu said.

Xiao Bao then whispered to Li Yu, "Grandma, even though this noodles has meat, it's still not as delicious as your tomato and egg noodles."

Lin Mei also heard it and nodded to show her approval of Xiaobao's words.

Li Yu: “…”

She discovered that this kid was definitely a foodie.

After three months of feeding, Xiaobao has gained some weight, and because Lin Mei has been taking care of him at home, he is much whiter than before.

He is chubby now and very cute, especially when he talks to Li Yu in a sly way.

Li Yu also whispered to Xiao Bao, "Grandma will make it for you tonight, how about it?"

Xiaobao shook his head and said, "Thank you, Grandma. You are the best grandmother in the world."

Flatterer!

Lin Hai and Yang Liu looked helpless, feeling that their mother was spoiling the child too much. "Mom, why do you agree to everything he says? He's already happy with just white noodles, so why is he so picky? He's never even had noodles before," Lin Hai said.

Xiaobao felt a little timid when he heard his father say that, as if he had indeed been a little picky recently.

Li Yu said, "It's okay. I know what I'm doing. It's normal for children to be picky about food. They'll get better as they grow up. It's just a meal. It's okay."

She turned to Xiaobao and said, "It's okay, grandma wants to eat tomato and egg noodles too."

Only then did Xiaobao feel happy.

Children are the most sensitive. When Lin Hai said those words, Li Yu could see the light in his eyes slowly fading.

She felt a little sorry. The child, who was not even four years old now, had lived a very hard life in the past. For as long as she could remember, her only thought was how to avoid going hungry.

After the meal, Li Yu arranged their tasks. "Lin Hai, you and Yang Liu take Xiaobao to buy some festival gifts. For the three families: your eldest uncle's, your third uncle's, and your father-in-law's. Buy some meat, cloth, and snacks."

"Lin Jiang, go buy some food at your fourth uncle's house—meat, cloth, and snacks. Meimei and I will go buy things for our family. Lin Hai, give 100 coins from today's sales to your second brother," Li Yu said.

Lin Jiang quickly said: "Mom, I have money."

"Your money is your private money. From now on, all festival gifts will come from the public fund." Li Yu said to him.

After everyone else had left, Li Yu and Lin Mei strolled leisurely.

"Mom, what are we going to buy?" Lin Mei asked her.

Li Yu said cheerfully, "Let's go buy some jewelry, some cloth, and some cotton. When we get home, Mom will make you new clothes and teach you how to make new things."

Li Yu had saved some money from her stall, so she wanted to buy something again. They first went to a jewelry store called "Zhenbaofang".

The waiter was very welcoming and came forward to greet the mother and daughter as they entered the store. He asked with a smile, "Auntie, are you bringing your daughter here to buy jewelry? Please come in." He pointed to the counter and said, "We have all the styles in our shop here. Auntie, would you like me to show you around or would you like to take a look yourself?"

Li Yu said to him, "Please introduce us. This is my daughter, and my daughter-in-law hasn't come yet. They both want a pair of small silver earrings. Please recommend one. The price should not exceed one or two taels."

When Lin Mei heard that her mother had bought her jewelry, her eyes lit up and she looked straight at her mother. Li Yu smiled and patted her hands, signaling her to calm down.

Finally, with the help of the waiter, I bought a pair of silver earrings in the shape of plum blossoms for Lin Mei for 800 wen, and a pair of orchid-shaped earrings for Yang Liu.

Li Yu didn't buy it herself, even though she loved beauty in her previous life and was only 37 now. But the original owner had made her appearance look unremarkable.

Let’s just raise it first.

Next, they went to the cloth shop and bought a piece of green cloth to make clothes for their family and a piece of white cloth for Lin He.

They also went to the dim sum shop to buy moon cakes.

What surprised Li Yu the most was that she saw wool on a Hu people's stall.

To the north of this country there is a small nomadic country - Chagan. Although Chagan is small, its king is a very smart man and has a very good relationship with Tianqi.

Therefore, the two countries have always had trade and exchanged materials. From this point of view, the leaders of both countries are not stupid people.

She had been thinking about what kind of business to start for Lin Mei, but now when she saw wool, she immediately thought of knitting sweaters and scarves, as well as wool felt dolls.

Get rich!

Just ask who hasn’t knitted a sweater, scarf and gloves for their boyfriend when they were in college.

Li Yu also followed a trend on the Internet for a while.

Happy ^_^
