Fang sat at the table and sighed deeply, "It's all our fault. Your father and I had the same dream. In the dream, you were bullied and didn't dare to say anything..."
As she spoke, Fang started to cry. "Later, someone took a fancy to Lin Xu'an, kidnapped you and sold you..."
Thinking of the miserable scene in the dream, Fang grabbed Ye Wanwan's hand and suddenly became firm, "Hua'er, how about we get divorced?"
"Mom, it's okay. Dreams are the opposite of what they used to be." Seeing Fang's overflowing concern, Ye Wanwan gently wiped away her tears and comforted her.
Actually, if the family doesn't mind, it's not impossible to put the divorce on the agenda. It's always more comfortable to stay in your own place.
However, divorce is naturally not a matter for one party. When Ye Wanwan thought she was just getting by, someone's heart was already beating quietly for her.
"Yes, once the bamboo baskets are sold, we will have food for the winter." Before daybreak, Ye Wanwan held Ye Ansheng's hand and said with a smile.
But to be honest, she is not very optimistic about selling bamboo baskets in this season. Unless the price is pushed down very low, there will probably not be much demand.
The market day has arrived. No matter whether you have prepared anything or have a few coins in your pocket, there will be a lot of people going. Besides, there is not much work to do in winter, and there are few entertainment facilities in these places, so it is nice to join in the fun.
Linjia Village is the poorest village in the area. How poor is it? Other places use ox carts to save time, but the people of Linjia Village rely entirely on foot to get around.
Therefore, when the Ye family arrived, there were already quite a few people inside and outside the customary market place.
Some of them sell food, while others, like the Ye family, make their own food and sell it. There are also quite a few who sell eggs and the like...
"Bamboo baskets are for sale. Take a look, take a look. Don't miss it if you pass by..." Ye Bufan, who considered himself the head of the family, was the first to shout.
However, it was of no use. Few people stopped to buy the goods. When someone finally came to ask the price, he just shook his head and said that there were other places that were cheaper.
"Dad, Mom, Ansheng, Wanwan, you are here too." Lin Xu'an, who had just sold a rabbit, saw the familiar figure, thought for a moment, and walked over.
Seeing that it was their son-in-law who came, the Ye family couple felt a little uncomfortable. It was so embarrassing! "Xu An, what are you doing here?"
"I picked up a rabbit in the mountains yesterday. Since I'm going to the market today, I brought it here." Lin Xu'an said with a smile without showing any displeasure.
Ye Bufan nodded, looking at the empty-handed Lin Xu'an and the unsold bamboo basket in front of him, and couldn't help feeling a little depressed. His original ambition of making some money with the only skill he knew was about to be discouraged.
"Dad, Mom, there are too many people selling bamboo baskets here. How about I take you somewhere else?" Lin Xu'an suggested enthusiastically, recalling what he had seen along the way. It was a good thing that the Ye family wanted to change, and within his ability, he didn't mind helping out.
Hearing this, Ye Bufan felt a little moved, and turned his gaze to Ye Wanwan, wanting her to make a decision.
Ye Wanwan understood what he meant and nodded without hesitation, "Okay, thank you for your help."
There is not much business anyway, and we are still nominally husband and wife after all, so there is no need to be so polite. At worst, I can sell it and give him some. It is not a bad thing.
It would be better to sell it, otherwise it would dampen her father's enthusiasm! If she had money, she would find a few people to help buy it. She would spoil her father herself!
"Xu'an, we can just take it. We're sorry to bother you." Ye Bufan took the bamboo basket from Lin Xu'an's hand and said politely.
Lin Xu'an didn't listen either. He picked up the bamboo basket effortlessly and said, "It's okay, Dad. I'll take you there."
"Oh, okay." Ye Bufan picked up the remaining bamboo basket, feeling relieved.
Ye Wanwan looked at Lin Xu'an and was filled with emotion. It was true that there was a reward for every effort. After all, everyone had noticed what she had done in the Lin family these days, as evidenced by the change in Lin Xu'an's attitude towards the Lin family.
The place Lin Xu'an took the Ye family to was the largest food supplier in the county, and also a big client who bought his prey.
The food ingredients for restaurants and wealthy families in the entire county are all delivered from Rongji Vegetable Restaurant, which has a good reputation.
"Brother Lin, what rare and wonderful things have you found this time?" the manager in charge of purchasing asked enthusiastically, as if he had seen the little God of Wealth.
Lin Xu'an shook his head and put down the bamboo basket he was holding. "Manager, I don't have anything this time. I just have these bamboo baskets. I would like to ask for a favor."
"Okay, okay. Brother Lin, if you have any good stuff, just send it to me." The manager picked up a bamboo basket, took a look at it, and agreed.
Bamboo baskets are a necessity for vegetable shops. They can be bought from anywhere, and it is also very good to be able to do a favor for someone.
With someone guaranteeing it, and Ye Bufan's bamboo baskets being well-woven, the price was slightly higher than the outside prices. Eighteen bamboo baskets were sold at once for six cents each.
"Don't get me wrong, I haven't been to the mountains for some time." Lin Xu'an walked to Ye Wanwan, who was holding her brother's hand. The three of them walked side by side, and he leaned over to explain in her ear.
Ye Wanwan pushed Lin Xu'an's head aside and said uncomfortably, "I know, what do you have to explain to me?"
"It's nothing. I should tell you." Lin Xu'an touched Ye Wanwan's head, took out ten copper coins from his arms, put them in her hand, and said in a low voice.
He could hunt, but few people knew about it. Ye Wanwan was a fool in the past, and she couldn't keep the money she earned. So when he got the money back from the sales, he never took any of it, but kept it all with Liu.
"Mom said that from now on, the money will be divided according to the family rules. You get half and the family gets half." Lin Xu'an was afraid that Ye Wanwan would misunderstand, so he continued to explain.
Weighing the copper coin in her hand, Ye Wanwan felt her face getting hot. "No, no, just keep it."
"What's mine is yours. Do you want to buy anything? Let's go back together." Lin Xu'an didn't answer, but took Ye Ansheng's other hand and asked softly.
Ye Bufan, who had a copper coin in his pocket, had a smile on his face. Upon hearing this, he turned around and asked, "Is there anything you want to buy? Dad will buy it for you."
"We need to buy some food." Fang suggested, remembering the empty rice jar.
Ye Ansheng, who was being led by the two men, looked at his old father's eager eyes, shook his head, and said obediently, "Dad, I don't need anything, save the money."
"Dad, let's buy some meat." After Ye Wanwan finished speaking, she turned around and asked Lin Xu'an, "Will you come to my house for lunch?"
Ye Bufan quickly agreed, "It's time to have a meal. Today is all thanks to Xu An."
Lin Xu'an accepted Ye Wanwan's invitation without hesitation. Thus, the whole family began their shopping trip.
