Chapter 43: Need to Feed
"Shopkeeper Jin, I have a request..."
"Madam Lu, please speak."
"Can I pay a part of the deposit?" Lu Qingyao thought that she must ask the villagers to dig this batch of bamboo shoots together.
Of course the money has to be paid in advance.
With the deposit in hand, you won’t be short of money.
Shopkeeper Jin smiled and said, "Of course. How about paying five taels of silver first and the rest after inspection?"
Although this Ms. Lu looks shrewd, she is actually very straightforward.
Of course Lu Qingyao agreed and nodded in agreement.
I didn't expect the talks to go so smoothly.
The whole process took less than an hour.
After delivering the goods, Lu Qingyao directly treated Jiang Yunhu and his wife to a good meal at Yipinju.
Roasted pork skin, crispy crystal minced meat, roasted lamb...
Lu Qingyao introduced them to them one by one.
Liu Yu Niang was so excited that she was speechless when she saw the table full of delicious food.
She had never eaten such a sumptuous meal in her entire life.
Nothing I ate during Chinese New Year was half as good as this.
She was a little reluctant to pick up her chopsticks, mainly because she felt sorry for the money. "Sister-in-law, how about we just eat the steamed buns?"
"Sister-in-law, it's still more than half a day's journey back. It's a rare opportunity for you to come to Jiangzhou, so don't worry. With this business, our future will be better, so don't worry about the food." Lu Qingyao said as she began to serve food to her brother and sister-in-law.
Liu Yu Niang ate a few bites and put down her bowl and chopsticks. "Sister-in-law, can you talk to the waiter to pack up the leftovers to take away? I want Qiao'er and mother-in-law to try some too."
"Sister-in-law, eat as much as you want. I've asked the waiter to pack some food for the children." The children had suffered a lot following her for a long time, and they came here to eat so that she could bring some food back to them.
These were common meals for Lu Qingyao in the past, but her brother and sister-in-law had never eaten them and were reluctant to eat them.
She felt a little sour in her nose.
If the eldest brother had been a little more selfish and not emptied the family savings to lend Jiang Yunze that money.
His legs won't limp.
With my eldest brother's ability, his family would probably have become a wealthy family in the village by now.
It won't be so difficult.
Lu Qingyao took Liu Yu Niang's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, this time we earned eleven taels of silver from selling bamboo shoots, and we also received a deposit of five taels. We can sell more bamboo shoots in the future. Our future will be better and better..."
"Eleven taels! So much!!" Liu Yu Niang was dumbfounded, her eyes almost popping out.
This is the money his family would have to save for a year.
I actually made money in one day.
Lu Qingyao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She was really afraid that Liu Yu Niang would go back and tell everyone about it.
"Sister-in-law...don't tell anyone about this!"
Liu Yu Niang put away her exaggerated expression and nodded repeatedly, "Of course, of course, my husband said that wealth should not be shown to others."
Although the day went very smoothly, Lu Qingyao was still anxious and couldn't let go of her children at home.
He left five taels of silver to Jiang Yunhu and hurried back with Jiang Ziyan.
We should be home before sunset.
......
Jiang Miaomiao fell asleep in the fat woman's arms.
When I opened my eyes again, I was faced with a big round face.
Jiang Miaomiao was a little sleepy.
Looking at the strange fat woman in front of her, she remembered that she and her elder brother had been raped.
How could she be so careless that she actually fell asleep?
But I’m hungry, so hungry!
You don’t allow me to cry, right? Then give me milk.
A three-month-old baby needs milk.
So, the fat woman who was half asleep felt someone stripping off her clothes.
It tickled her.
Suddenly, a sharp pain came from my chest.
"Ah! I'm going to die." The fat woman was startled and suddenly woke up.
By moonlight.
I saw the little baby lying on her chest...
"Baji, baji~~~"
The fat woman gasped and tried hard to pull the baby away.
He cursed, "Damn little thing, I should have strangled you to death just now."
How could a bite from a toothless creature be so painful?
He is still so strong.
No matter how hard I try, I can't get it open. The harder I try, the more painful it becomes...
Jiang Miaomiao used all her strength.
The fat woman opened the curtain and said through gritted teeth, "Master, go find some cow's milk or goat's milk."
"Are you annoying? Why are you so nosy?" The scarred man looked back impatiently and suddenly burst into laughter.
“Hahaha~~~”
“Hahaha~~~”
His laughter echoed in the air.
"Laugh, laugh, have you laughed enough?" The fat woman's face turned red with anger.
When the man with the scar saw that his wife was angry, he immediately shut up.
"Wife, does the little thing think you are her mother? Otherwise, let's keep her. When we have a son, we can let her be our son's child bride."
Jiang Miaomiao: ...
That’s a nice thought, but I’m worried that you won’t be able to give birth.
The fat woman rolled her eyes at the scarred man and said, "You're dreaming!"
She didn't dare say that she could no longer have children.
A few years ago, I took too many contraceptive pills in a brothel and had several miscarriages.
It's impossible to have a baby again!
She hates babies.
Especially beautiful girls.
But the head of the family really wants a baby.
Otherwise she wouldn't have kept this little thing.
The man with the scar parked his car near a village and came out soon with a can of milk.
He handed it to the fat woman and said, "Here, this thing is really expensive! It cost me dozens of coins."
The fat woman rolled her eyes at him again. "You spendthrift bastard, why did you give me the money? Just chop it off with a knife and it's over."
"Forget it, let's do some good deeds for our unborn son."
When the fat woman saw that he couldn't stop talking without talking about his son, she stopped talking.
He handed the milk to Jiang Miaomiao's mouth and said, "Little thing, hurry up and eat it, or you'll die of fullness!"
Jiang Miaomiao smelled the sweet scent of milk and couldn't bear to torture her.
He started to drink the milk with a slurp.
After all, only when you are full can you have the energy to think.
Jiang Zifeng woke up from the woman's scream, but still closed his eyes and pretended to be unconscious.
He was a strong man, so the effect of the medicine wore off quickly.
I wish I could slap myself a few times.
If he hadn't eaten the candied haws out of greed, he wouldn't have been beaten.
He opened his eyelids a little and saw that his sister was safe and sound and had milk to drink, and he felt better.
I wonder if mother has come back?
Did you notice that they were being photographed?
Will you come to find them?
After Jiang Miaomiao finished her milk, she sucked her fingers and rolled her eyes.
Thinking about things...
She was sure she had special powers, besides communicating in her baby talk and the chirping of birds.
I haven’t used it on other small animals. I wonder if they can understand it?
Don't let her cry, but it's okay for her to scream.
Then the delicate little baby waved his little hands and giggled at the fat woman.
Then he started babbling again.
The scarred man lifted the curtain and took a look, "What's wrong with the little thing?"
"You must be happy after eating! You are a heartless little thing. You can still laugh even after being kidnapped. It seems you have no conscience." The fat woman looked impatient.
Throw her into a corner of the carriage.
Jiang Miaomiao rolled and rolled... rolled and rolled...
He rolled to his elder brother's side.
The eldest brother opened his eyelids, looked at her, and winked at her.
Jiang Miaomiao stretched out her little hand and touched her brother's face.
Don't be afraid, brother...
He started babbling again.
"Awooooo ...
She didn't know what she would shout out...
