When Mu Feng heard his master ask who else had sent people to hunt him down, he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Even if the master is sad, he still has to accept the reality.
Mu Feng was silent for a moment, but he still spoke out, "It's the Fourth Young Master."
The fourth young master is the eldest son born to his stepmother.
"Chen Ke?" Shen Nian didn't expect it.
But it’s not that he didn’t think about it, but that he was deceiving himself and didn’t want to admit it!
He has always treated Chen Ke as his own brother since he was a child, and always thought of him when it came to good things.
Because his mother died early, after Liu came into the family, she treated Chen Nian better than her own children. Chen Ke also followed him around and called him "Big Brother" affectionately all day long, making him think that Liu and her son were really good to him, so he let down his guard and accepted them.
Later on, they got along like a family.
Even after he found out what Liu had done, he did not vent his anger on Chen Ke.
He always thought that Chen Ke was unaware of the situation. When he had an attack, he even pleaded with him, saying that it was his mother's fault and he had never thought of taking away his position as the crown prince.
He will always be his favorite big brother!
The result, haha!
He should have realized it long ago. Chen Ke had a mother like Liu, and was trying to seize his position as the crown prince. How could he not know?
Maybe he was involved in it.
Shen Nian gritted his teeth and didn't speak for a long time. He clenched his fists and tightened them again and again, and didn't let go for a long time.
He breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his normal self.
Xia Tian was right. Hatred was useless now. The best torture for them would be if he returned alive.
After hearing that his master didn't respond for a long time, Mu Feng called out nervously, "Master?"
"It's okay, go to sleep! I should have thought of it earlier."
Xia Tian had no idea about the conversation in the room. She fell asleep as soon as she lay down.
The next morning, she got up early and prepared breakfast for three people as usual. After breakfast, she carried the basket and went to the town.
Mu Feng wanted to send her off, but she refused.
Just kidding. If she went alone, she could put the burden in the space when there was no one on the road and travel light. If there were more people with her, she would have to carry the burden slowly all the way to the town.
With the nourishment of the space, her physical condition is getting better and better. Now her pace has become much faster. She can reach the town in half an hour with a load on her back.
As soon as I arrived at the stall, a group of people gathered around me. Xia Tian saw that many of them were repeat customers.
I packed the braised food for them quickly, and by the time this group of people left, all the pig intestines and dried tofu had been sold out, but only half of the pig head was left.
Xia Tian had just sat down to catch his breath and drink some water when a middle-aged man in a respectable long gown came to the stall.
"Young Boss, do you have any pig's head left?"
She put down the cup, quickly stood up, and greeted him with a smile, "I still have a few pounds." As she spoke, she lifted the lid on the basin, "How much do you want, boss?"
"Only a few pounds left? Then take them all!" The visitor looked at the basin and saw that there was indeed not much meat left.
"You want both? I want 20 cents per pound of this braised pork."
Xia Tian was afraid that he didn't know the price, so he quickly confirmed it.
"I know, weigh it now!"
"Okay, wait a moment, it will be ready soon."
Xia Tian weighed the meat skillfully, wrapped it in oil paper, and since there was a lot of meat, he took a small bamboo basket and put it in it for him.
"It's six pounds and two ounces in total. I'll count it as six pounds for you. Just give me one hundred and twenty coins." Xia Tian handed over the basket.
The man saw that she was a genuine person and even gave him a small amount of money, and his favorability towards her increased instantly.
He was in no hurry to leave and asked Xia Tian, "Young Boss, can you place an order for this? I'm the housekeeper of the Wang family in town. My master's birthday is the day after tomorrow, and your braised meat is delicious, so it's a perfect opportunity to add a dish."
Xia Tian was also very happy to hear that someone had placed an order. "I wonder how much you want to order?"
"Thirty pounds of pig's head."
Xia Tian thought about it and realized that she could still handle 30 kilograms, so she agreed. "Okay. Then when do you want it the day after tomorrow?"
"We have a banquet at noon. I'll send someone to pick it up when you set up the stall in the morning."
"Okay, what's your name?"
"Just call me Butler Wang."
"Okay, Butler Wang, I'll be there on time the day after tomorrow. Just send someone to pick it up."
After making an appointment with Butler Wang, Xia Tian quickly packed up his stall and went to pick up the goods.
He took the six sets of pig intestines and a pig's head that he had originally ordered, and bought four large pig's heads from two stalls.
She also made an agreement with the two butcher stall owners to keep the pig intestines and pig heads for her in the future.
Seeing that there were fresh ribs on the meat stall, she weighed ten pounds and pork belly weighed five pounds. The owner of the meat stall not only gave her a small change, but also gave her the unsold pig hearts, pig livers and five large ribs.
This is a big customer, we must maintain it well!
Xia Tian thought, since she had the space anyway, it didn’t matter if she bought too much. She could just put the food in there after cooking it and it would be as good as fresh food.
Passing by a tofu stall, she picked up the ten pounds of dried tofu she had ordered and also ordered another hundred pounds. She planned to braise more and put it in her space when she had time, so that she could replenish the stock at any time when business was good.
It is also difficult to store the backpacks and other things that Shen Nian woven at home in the space, for fear that they will be discovered if something is missing.
In the summer, I bought several of them when I went to the market and put them in my space to store my things.
Since she would need to store cooked food in the future, she went to the grocery store and bought ten large wooden barrels and ten large wooden basins.
He walked to a deserted place and put all the things into the space, leaving only two baskets, which he carried on a shoulder pole.
She also went to a specialized carpenter's shop and bought a few large three-layer wooden racks. She had them delivered to an empty alley. After everyone left, she put them away in a space so that it would be more convenient for her to store them in the future.
Passing by a grain store, Xia Tian went in and bought 50 kilograms of rice and 50 kilograms of flour.
