It took another hour after Boss Yu's carriage arrived from the county town to pick all the watermelons.
A total of 512 watermelons were picked this time, weighing a total of 7,712 kilograms.
After the watermelons were weighed, Tian An took Boss Yu home to settle the bill. She had a deep understanding of the principle of not showing off one's wealth.
The total amount was three hundred and eighty-four taels of silver, and Tian An did not give Boss Yu a penny less.
According to her, Boss Yu runs a money shop, and any money that slips through his fingers is enough for her farmhands to have a good meal.
Of course, Tian An was not stingy. After getting the money, he gave the remaining change to Mangzhong in front of Boss Yu, and asked her to go to the village to buy about twenty roosters and send them to the kitchen of the canteen to add to the dishes for everyone.
Tian An's move made Boss Yu's mouth twitch. Then he felt in his purse and took out a few small coins. He picked out the largest one, about five taels of silver, and handed it to Mangzhong, saying:
"I see there are quite a few people in your family. Twenty or so chickens are not enough! Let's go buy twenty more! Thank you for your hard work today."
Seeing that Chang'an had no objection, Mangzhong thanked him, took the silver and went out to tell people to do the job.
Wang Erdong happened to be there, so she asked him to tell the villagers that if anyone had a rooster they wanted to sell, they could take it to the canteen to be weighed, and after the price was calculated, she would be notified to pay.
When Wang Erdong heard the girl's order, he acted as if he had received an imperial decree. He did not dare to delay at all and went to do the work happily.
Mangzhong was just about to enter the house when he saw another carriage coming from a distance, so he had to wait to greet the guests again?
Inside the house, Boss Yu was discussing grapes with Tian Anti!
"Hey, Miss An An! Don't you also grow grapes? Pick some for me too!"
Before Tian An could say anything, a cold snort came from outside the door: "Huh! Where are the grapes? You stole my watermelon, and you still dare to think about my grapes."
When Boss Yu saw Peng Zhang coming in, he thought to himself, "This guy really can't stand nagging! He just said this morning that he would be back in the next few days, but he's here just a few hours later."
But I'm still lucky. The watermelons should be loaded into the truck by now!
While they were not paying attention, he put his hands behind his back and waved to the servant beside him, signaling him to take the watermelon away quickly.
Seeing that Boss Yu didn't say anything, Peng Zhang turned to Tian An and said, "Tian An, you are really great! I gave you the watermelon seeds, and you actually sold them to others without my knowledge."
Tian An: ...Why does this guy sound like he is condemning a heartless man?
Tian An felt a little guilty about the watermelon incident, but the most important thing he couldn't lose at a time like this was his aura.
Tian An said confidently, "Humph! You still have the nerve to say that? You took so many potatoes from me, left a piece of paper and ran away. And the watermelon? If you come later, you won't even see the watermelon rind."
As expected, Peng Zhang shrank his head and whispered, "Didn't I leave a letter? Besides, I'm not taking it for free. Didn't I ask you to go to the silk shop owner to get the silver? Didn't you promise to give me some?"
Tian An raised his voice and asked, "Some? Don't you know how much you took?"
Peng Zhang shrank his head again, his neck almost invisible. Since he couldn't win the argument, he might as well cheat! He couldn't afford to suffer any loss.
So Peng Zhang stretched his neck again and said, "I don't care, just give me back my watermelon."
Tian An said unhappily, "There's no more of this crop. Come back in a few days."
Peng Zhang was relentless: "Then return the money to him, and I'll give you more silver, and you sell the watermelon to me."
Tian Ancai was not used to his young master's temper, and spread his hands: "The money has been spent, why don't you return it?"
Boss Yu also said, "The watermelons have been taken away, why don't you go back? Mr. Peng, please come earlier next time!"
The young master of the Peng family is a notorious scoundrel and difficult to deal with. It was really a relief to finally make him suffer a defeat.
Although I was enjoying it, I knew deep down that I might not be able to have it again! Oh! What a waste of those good grapes!
Boss Yu was regretting his grapes, but Boss Peng was still thinking about his watermelon.
Tian An was so annoyed by Peng Zhang that he agreed to take him to pick grapes, and only then did the guy stop.
Boss Yu also went along with the idea of picking up a bargain. There's always a chance of something happening! What if he gets lucky?
Seeing Boss Yu following, Peng Zhang frowned and said sarcastically, "Why are you everywhere? I won't bother with you about the watermelon, but don't even think about these grapes."
Boss Yu was so angry that he wanted to curse, but he took a few deep breaths and finally held back: "Forget it, I won't bother with you, a junior."
Facts have proven that you can't tolerate people like Peng Zhang.
I just heard him say in a mean voice: "Why don't you care? If you care, then care! I like you to care.
This time, I took advantage of my absence to let you take advantage of the opportunity. If I were here, humph! You wouldn't even be qualified to watch from the sidelines."
Boss Yu could no longer bear it and had to scold him, "Mr. Peng, please don't go too far."
After all, he was the guest he had invited, so Tian An also said, "Fatty Peng, please be more polite with your words."
Seeing Tian An speak, he pursed his lips and stopped talking. There was nothing he could do. When you are under someone else's eaves, you have to bow your head! Who made him want the grapes? He was in someone else's hands!
However, after a while, he started to act up again.
This time he didn't speak directly to Boss Yu, because he still had to consider Tian An's face. Although this girl was disloyal, he was magnanimous and didn't bother with her.
It's just that he didn't keep an eye on the watermelon and someone else got there first! Couldn't he have just kept a closer eye on it?
"Peng Zhong, go find some more people to help me keep an eye on my watermelons and grapes."
He looked at Boss Yu meaningfully and said, "Don't let someone take advantage of you again. Don't let me leak any watermelons or grapes, not even a single seed."
Boss Yu: ...What should we do if he can’t bear it anymore?
Tian An: ...She only just realized how annoying this guy is now.
Looking at Boss Yu who was on the verge of exploding, Tian An pulled Peng Zhang's clothes, reminding him that it was enough.
After a while of peace and quiet, Tian An finally brought them to the vineyard.
As a result, just as she was about to pick the grapes, she saw a young man running from a distance, shouting loudly as he ran: "Oh no, oh no, something bad has happened to the girl."
Tian An was speechless: "...She's fine! Can she talk?"
When the young man ran to Tian An, he gasped and said, "Oh no, girl, the master, the master has returned covered in blood..."
Upon hearing the bad news, Tian An was struck by lightning. The color drained from his face and turned pale immediately!
Big Bull, he was talking about Big Bull, he said Big Bull came back covered in blood.
After coming to his senses, Tian An ran towards home...
