Cheng Yue comforted everyone, and everyone left reluctantly.
"Auntie Yue! I made a lot of money today. Shouldn't we have a good meal tonight to celebrate?"
After everyone left, Mingzhu stood next to Cheng Yue and smiled.
"Of course! Invite your parents to my house for dinner tonight. Come on, let's go shopping!"
Cheng Yue put the basket on his back and said with a smile.
All the baskets and porcelain basins were given to Xie Yuxin, leaving only the backpack and the shoulder pole.
The three of them, each carrying a backpack, went shopping.
Xie Yuxin sat in the carriage, looking at the baskets piled at her feet, and almost tore her handkerchief to pieces.
"Zi Yan, give me a bag of spicy strips!"
Xie Yuxin said angrily.
Zi Yan handed it to Xie Yuxin.
Xie Yuxin mistook the spicy strips for Cheng Yue and bit them hard. After a few bites, she slowed down.
Hey, it’s delicious!
Soon, Xie Yuxin finished a bag of spicy strips and felt it was a bit spicy, so she took a few fish skin peanuts to chew. After chewing them, she took some shredded pork to eat.
We ate all the way back home.
She completely forgot that she was shopping with her cousin today. Of course, in Lu Minghui's eyes, she was like a dog-skin plaster that stuck on him and couldn't be shaken off.
Zi Yu looked at her young lady who was eating happily, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
…
Cheng Yue and the other two completely forgot that Cheng Wu was with them when they came, and they had agreed to meet at the gambling house in an hour and a half.
When Cheng Wu came to meet them, no one was there.
Cheng Wu went home depressed.
Taoyuan County is quite large. After Cheng Yue traveled here, she came to the county town every day, but she never went shopping.
Every day I go back and forth between home, the butcher shop, and the stall.
Apart from that, he had only been to the center of the county town once, which was when Gu Xuelan was at Jinxiu Manor.
There wasn't much time today, so Cheng Yue didn't go shopping much. She just bought some cloth to make clothes, and then bought some snacks of that era. Then she bought a large bag of vegetables and went home with Mingzhu and Cheng Wen.
Cheng Yue thought about the five hundred taels of silver he had sold today. To be honest, it was a bit of a rip-off. Moreover, the Xie family was the richest family in Taoyuan County. Indeed, even their parent official, County Magistrate Wu, had to give face to the Xie family.
The Xie family's reputation can't be said to be good, nor bad. Cheng Yue doesn't want to be on good terms with them, but at the same time, she doesn't want to be enemies with them.
Her current identity is a little village girl. She is very strong and not afraid of anything, but she still has a family!
She can't go back to modern times, and has to live in Da Qi, so she'd rather avoid trouble if possible.
So, she said that to Zi Yu.
The Xie family has many businesses, including restaurants, wineries, cloth shops, silver shops, and so on.
The Xie family is not only the richest family in Taoyuan County, but also ranks among the top in the entire Yunzhou Prefecture.
Xie Yuxin was cheated today. The master of the Xie family may not care about the money, but he cares about the reputation of their Xie family.
Businessmen value profit, so Cheng Yue has to offer benefits to make the Xie family not touch her for the time being.
It’s not that a recipe for shredded pork can stop Master Xie from doing anything to her, but as long as Master Xie comes looking for her, she has plenty of ways to keep him.
In the evening, Cheng Yue prepared a large table of delicious food and invited Mingzhu's family and Shanshui to come over.
When she had the five hundred taels of silver, she would first return it to Shanshui. She didn't like to owe people money, even if it was the Cheng family that owed Shanshui money.
