The people serving An Wanwan quickly helped her tidy up.
Tidy up.
The door opened.
Erbao ran in: "Mother, Mother, look at this portrait I learned to paint with the Grand Tutor today."
An Wanwan took it and looked at it, but she couldn't figure out what he had drawn.
"Erbao, what you drew is..."
"It's you, Mother."
Erbao raised his chin and said, "Mother, doesn't it look a lot like you?"
Don't even mention looking like her.
An Wanwan couldn't even tell that he had drawn a person.
She coughed and said, "Erbao, we don't necessarily have to draw people. Drawing flowers or grass is fine too."
"Yes, Mother, you wait."
Erbao turned and ran, incredibly fast, and in less than 15 minutes he had a stack of papers.
"Mother, look, this is the lotus flower I painted. And this, this is the bamboo I painted. And this, this is the plum tree in the Imperial Garden I painted, and I also painted other flowers..."
I've read it all.
An Wanwan's lips twitched involuntarily; her second son really had absolutely no talent for drawing.
Holding her negative review, she changed the subject and asked, "Where are your eldest brother and third brother?"
"Them..."
Erbao drawled as he leaned closer, saying, "Big brother went to practice martial arts, and third brother... well, third brother took some people to the pond in the Imperial Garden to catch fish. He said that kind of fish is pretty good when grilled, and I'm planning to go eat some later. Mother, do you want some? I'll bring one back for you..."
An Wanwan: "!"
The fish fed in the ponds of the Imperial Garden are not ordinary fish; some of them cost several hundred taels of silver each!
An Wanwan decided to talk about her three treasures.
result.
She and Erbao went to the Imperial Garden.
Before she could even speak, she smelled the aroma. Then Sanbao ran over and handed each of them a grilled fish. It was golden brown and looked and smelled delicious.
"Mother, please don't be shy and eat. Also, I roasted several more. If it's not enough, we can catch more."
An Wanwan took a bite and it was not bad, but the problem was that the fish was expensive. She looked at Sanbao and said, "Sanbao, do you know how much each of these fish costs?"
How much is one?
Sanbao blinked and asked.
An Wanwan truthfully said, "See? The one I'm holding is worth over a hundred taels of silver, the one Erbao is holding is worth two hundred taels of silver, and the ones still being roasted are worth over three hundred taels of silver each..."
Sanbao exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, so expensive! Oh no, I sold it too cheaply!"
What.
He even baked them to sell for money!
An Wanwan stared at Sanbao and asked, "Who did you sell it to?"
He realized he had let something slip.
Sanbao lowered his head and said, "I sold one to the Grand Tutor's grandson, one to Li Ji, who was studying with me, and one to another classmate who was also studying with me. I only received ten taels of silver for each one..."
An Wanwan laughed in exasperation: "You're really something!"
Sanbao reached out and tugged at An Wanwan's sleeve: "Mother, don't be angry. I will never do such a losing business again."
It's over.
Sanbao's grilled fish has gone up in price; one fish now costs three hundred taels of silver.
The cost is only a little over one hundred taels.
Not two days later.
Several officials then approached An Wanwan to complain about Sanbao, saying that he charged their child three hundred taels of silver for being a fish.
They refunded their money.
An Wanwan, with a dark expression, had someone bring Sanbao over.
Firstly.
Sanbao sensed something was wrong: "Mother, what's wrong? Did someone make you angry?"
