"Sister Xu." Xu Guo shook his head when he heard this and looked at Xu Miaomiao with bared teeth.
This child is completely different from when she first bought him. There is more smile on his face. The cold look he had before has long disappeared. Seeing this, Xu Miaomiao just listened to Xu Guo continue to speak: "Although I haven't learned anything, I also went to the bookstore to learn some knowledge and bought some books. I have already integrated them. I have learned a lot. Although I can't compare with Mr. Song, I know some words after all. In the future, I just need to read some books and ask Mr. Xu and Mr. Song if I don't understand."
When Xu Miaomiao heard this, she nodded and couldn't help but feel relieved. This child was really sensible. However, since the moment they came to the Song Mansion, they had been one family. He would not treat Xuguo and Lanyin badly.
Although he and Liu Juan had broken up and Liu Juan's true colors were exposed, the rare thing was that Liu Juan did not cry or make a fuss these two days. Instead, she was much quieter and did not say anything. On the contrary, she was well-behaved and did not make any trouble. Xu Miaomiao thought that her threat that day scared her a little, but then she thought that Liu Juan would not give up so easily. She might have something important in her heart. She must let Xuguo keep a close eye on Liu Juan. "
She absolutely could not let Gu Yuanniang have any chance of falling into danger. Thinking of this, Xu Miaomiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and continued to talk to Xuguo.
Xuguo repeatedly assured her that she would take good care of Xu Juan. Only then did Xu Miaomiao breathe a sigh of relief. After all, she was always confident in Xuguo's work. With Xuguo around, she didn't have to worry anymore.
People from Wangjia Village often come here, not all men but also women, young and old, all of them bring Cordyceps to exchange for silver from Xu Miaomiao. Some families even come with several people, and some bring more than sixty Cordyceps. Unfortunately, Xu Miaomiao had made a rule before that each household could only send thirty, and those thirty were enough to cover their winter expenses.
"These people are really greedy." Song Weiwei complained from the side.
Xu Miaomiao sighed: "Human nature is like this. I believe that no matter who it is, if they have this opportunity to make money, the enemy will have this method."
Then, Xu Miaomiao picked up a brush and wrote a few large characters on a piece of paper, and asked Song Weiwei to stick it on the wall. The notice said that if anyone else brought more Cordyceps than the amount from everyone in their family, he would take back all the silver.
Sure enough, as soon as the notice was posted, the number of people asking for silver decreased. However, she had seen almost all of these people before, but she could not see that familiar figure. Even Wu Zhuang's wife Mei did not hesitate to lose face and went to the back mountain to pick up a basket of Cordyceps to exchange for silver from Xu Miaomiao, wanting to get the winnings. However, she still had some disdain for Xu Miaomiao, but she was happy after counting the silver in her hand.
Xu Miaomiao did not blame anyone and gave them the winnings generously.
Several days had passed since he last asked for the Cordyceps, but he still hadn't seen the figure of Village Chief Wang. Thinking of not having seen Village Chief Wang for a long time, Xu Miaomiao was obviously worried. The next second, a loud voice rang out. Xu Miaomiao looked in the direction of the voice and saw the loud-voiced sister-in-law walking over with a vegetable basket beside her. She had taken out dozens of Cordyceps from the basket before, and when she counted them one by one, there were actually fifty.
Seeing Xu Miaomiao waving one hand, like a creditor asking for money, he said fifty coins: "You can't give me a penny less."
Xu Miaomiao remained silent, but asked Song Weiwei who was standing beside her. Song Weiwei nodded, and immediately walked to Xu Miaomiao's ear and whispered: "Big Voice's husband came to replace the Cordyceps early in the morning. They have already replaced thirty cordyceps, and can't replace any more."
Xu Miaomiao nodded when she heard this. Although the Cordyceps that Big Voice Sister brought were all very big and indeed looked good, Xu Miaomiao still pushed these things back, looked at him coldly, and said, "Your family has already exchanged thirty coins of silver. This silver is enough for you to survive this cold winter, and it cannot be exchanged again."
The loud-voiced sister was a little dissatisfied. She threw the basket in her hand onto the table beside her, patted the table, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said with some questioning: "You were the one who said one cent of silver for one cordyceps. Why don't you give me a change after I brought the cordyceps?"
"I told you at the beginning that each person can only exchange thirty coins."
The loud-voiced sister-in-law's eyes flickered as she took out another twenty sticks from the table. She looked at Xu Miaomiao and smiled slightly, "Is this all right? There are only thirty sticks now, and each person can only exchange for thirty sticks. So my thirty sticks should be worth thirty coins."
Xu Miaomiao disagreed. Looking at the person in front of her, she suddenly felt that she was really shameless.
Song Weiwei was also impatient. She immediately pushed his Cordyceps and pointed to the notice next to her, saying, "Can't you see this notice? If anyone does this again, all the money will be returned, just like your husband called back and gave me the money."
Song Weiwei spoke arrogantly.
The loud-voiced sister was immediately unhappy when she heard this. She pointed at the Cordyceps and said, "Then why don't I just not change it? But who knows when you posted the notice? Is it targeting me?"
Xu Miaomiao didn't want to compete with him, so she went back to the house. When Song Weiwei saw this shameless man, she started to quarrel with him impatiently: "What nonsense are you talking about? We have already made this rule, and you didn't listen carefully. Besides, we went up the mountain to pick up the Cordyceps ourselves, can't we? It's just to give the people of Wangjia Village a chance to survive that our sister-in-law is so generous. You are so greedy that you actually want to do such a thing? If you do this again, our family will not accept this Cordyceps."
As expected, the remaining people who had not received the silver became a little nervous when they heard Song Weiwei say this, and began to point fingers at Big Voice Sister: "Big Voice Sister, we have been 100% tolerant of you in the village, but you are going too far. Your family has already received 30 cents of silver, why do you have to do such a thing? What if you really get angry and make Madam Xu unhappy, and our family can't get the silver, are you going to watch us starve to death? Why are you so cruel?"
When the loud-voiced lady heard this, she was also stunned.
