Chapter 20 A Good Wife



Liu Feng was not in a hurry. He drove the ox cart straight in front of the crowd.

When Mu Shaoliang saw that it was Liu Feng, he raised his hand politely to greet him.

Liu Feng responded with a smile, pointed at the ox cart, and continued to go to the market.

Mu Shaoliang looked at the car full of meat and gave Liu Feng a thumbs up.

Mu Shaoliang already knew that Liu Feng had brought his two younger sisters home.

The whole family praised Liu Feng highly, especially the things he brought, which solved the family’s urgent needs.

Mu Shaoliang looked at the cart full of meat, feeling both admiration and envy.

Liu Feng was pulling a whole cart of pork, which was a huge amount.

After spending more than two hours at the market, only a small half of the meat was sold.

Seeing that this was not a solution, Liu Feng pulled the ox cart to all the restaurants and taverns in the town before he sold out all the food.

This time, a portion of the meat was distributed to the villagers. After cleaning it up, there were more than a thousand pounds of meat, plus bones and other offal, which sold for a total of one hundred and seven taels of silver.

On the way back, Liu Feng was not idle either. He bought various rice, flour, grain and oil, and filled the entire ox cart before going home.

It’s just that these items that appear on the surface are just a cover.

The real treasures were tied under the ox cart. These were silver and silver notes won from the gambling house, as well as a small amount of gold.

Liu Feng walked very fast on the way back and arrived home soon.

From a distance, Liu Feng saw two figures standing on the embankment outside the yard. They looked thin and were looking towards the road.

It was not until Liu Feng appeared around the corner driving the ox cart that the two charming figures felt relieved and looked at Liu Feng with tears in their eyes.

Liu Feng felt warm in his heart when he saw his two daughters-in-law who cared about him so much.

A husband with a virtuous wife at home has nothing more to ask for.

Liu Feng took his two daughters-in-law into the yard and unloaded all the things from the car.

After sitting down, Liu Feng drank the tea that Mu Wanqing handed to him.

He showed the treasure he had obtained to his two daughters-in-law.

"Qing'er, Qing'er, look what this is."

Mu Wanqing looked at the banknotes in her hand thoughtfully, and suddenly burst into tears.

"Husband, please don't abandon me and my sister anymore."

"Wow... Qing'er and my sister didn't dare to sleep last night."

"Husband, money is not important to us sisters."

"It's okay if life is a little harder. My sister and I can accept it."

"Husband, please don't do such dangerous things again."

"Yes, my husband, you made my sister and I worry all night."

Liu Feng smiled bitterly. These two sisters were really weird. They didn't like money at all.

The ancients were simple after all.

Liu Feng's tone became gentle.

I am so lucky to have such an understanding wife.

"Don't cry, don't cry."

"I'm back, aren't I?"

"My husband has avenged the gambling house and the wine shop for cheating me this time. I won't go out at night anymore."

"If I keep going out at night, who will pamper you two sisters?"

"Husband, you are bad..."

Qing'er giggled.

"By the way, Qing'er, I gave you all those pawn tickets. Do you still want to keep them?"

"Husband, do you want to redeem the land?"

Qing'er asked in confusion.

In order to be able to drink and gamble, the original owner of this body pawned the family's land deeds and other valuable items, even the sisters' dowries.

The dowry given by the Mu family was not much, so Liu Feng didn't care.

But the land must be taken back.

Liu Feng wanted to laugh when he thought about his actions.

What a jerk.

But fortunately, Qing'er was careful and still kept the pawn tickets.

Mu Wanqing and her sister took hoes and started digging under a stone slab in the garden.

Not long after, a cloth bag was dug out, and inside the bag was the pawn ticket that was almost destroyed by Liu Feng.

The pawn ticket was a few wrinkled sheets of paper, damp.

After Liu Feng took it, he felt it was soft and felt mixed emotions.

Perhaps because of the original owner's memory, he was actually choked up.

Three acres of thin land, a total of three taels of silver, and the pawnshop was Deyuan Pawnshop in the county town.

Running a pawnshop is similar to running a gambling house. The reason they make money is from items that can never be redeemed.

"Qing'er, Qing'er, your husband will go to the city in a few days to redeem our land. From now on, I will farm and hunt, and you two will sew and cook. We will live a peaceful and stable life."

"Just wait and see, my husband will buy the whole village sooner or later."

"Let you two become landlords too."

"Husband, ah..."

"I didn't hear it right."

"The entire Siwa Village, how much would that cost?"

Mu Wanqing widened her eyes excitedly, wondering if her husband was exhausted from traveling all night and was talking nonsense.

"We don't want to be a landlord, we just want to make a living."

Mu Wan is pretty and intelligent, and she can see clearly that Liu Feng can do this, but she does not have such big ambitions and is satisfied with just being able to make a living.

Liu Feng smiled at the performance of the two sisters.

"Qing'er, Qing'er, come on, let's count together how much money we have now."

The two sisters giggled. Although they didn't love money, they still loved counting it.

The silver note is about one thousand taels.

There are more than six hundred taels of silver.

Adding other loose silver and some loose gold, the total amount is more than two thousand taels.

"Husband, why are there so many?"

"My dear, I am not dreaming."

After counting the money, the two women were extremely surprised. With so much money, he was already the richest man in the village.
