After hearing this, Granny Zhang's eyes widened and her body began to tremble. Just when she was about to be exposed, a voice suddenly came.
"Five more bowls!"
Shen Dahai raised his head and looked over, and saw a girl sitting in the yard with her back to the door. She said without turning her head, "Three bowls of fish balls and two bowls of noodles."
"Oh, you really can eat," Shen Dahai snorted and laughed, then turned around and said to Grandma Zhang, "Give me a letter before tonight, otherwise..."
Shen Dahai chuckled twice and left.
Grandma Zhang looked solemn, but she still turned around and went to the kitchen. Not long after, she and Xiaotao each brought two bowls of fish ball noodles. After Xiaotao put them down, she whispered to Song Yuehua, "Thank you, sister."
"Are you going to sell the house?" Song Yuehua asked.
Granny Zhang paused for a moment, and Song Yuehua immediately said, "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to."
"I want to sell my house, but because I'm in a hurry, people keep trying to lower the price," said Grandma Zhang with a sigh.
"Although our place is remote and the house is a bit run-down, it is in Qingzhou after all. How can we sell it at such a low price? If it is sold at a normal price, it should be at least 300 taels, but that person actually offered 100 taels. Isn't this bullying?"
Song Yuehua finished two bowls in a row, put the bowl on the table after drinking the soup, looked around the room and asked, "How urgent is it?"
Granny Zhang was stunned, and Xiao Tao said, "Today is the best day."
"How much do you plan to sell it for?" Song Yuehua asked.
Granny Zhang said anxiously, "200 taels."
Song Yuehua still had 126 taels of silver on her, leaving some for travel expenses, borrowing 30 taels from Duan Yidao, and another 30 taels from Xiaoyu, which only made up 180 taels.
"I can't get 200 taels today," Song Yuehua said, "I can only get 180 taels for now. Would you accept an IOU for the remaining 20 taels?"
Grandma Zhang's house is indeed a bit old, but it is a house in Qingzhou City after all. It would be more than this price if it were sold at any price. However, Song Yuehua does not have any extra money.
Granny Zhang thought about it and nodded, "Okay, how long will it take for the girl to collect the money?"
"I'll come back in an hour." Song Yuehua said.
After the three of them agreed, Song Yuehua put the money for the fish ball noodles on the table. Xiao Tao picked up the copper coin and handed it back, saying, "Sister, this is for you to eat."
"Please treat me to a meal again next time you have the chance." Song Yuehua said with a smile.
