The hunter's husband is so sweet

Chapter 52: Pan-fried buns were plagiarized

After returning, they went to Wang's house first. Fu Jingyi and Qi Xuan put the box on the table. Several people just looked at it, but no one opened it. Finally, Fu Jingyi reached out and opened the box. Everyone came over. There were quite a few things inside, including silver, jewelry, and a few jade pendants. The jewelry was divided into women's and boys'. "Brother Yi, this..." Qi Xuan looked embarrassed, "Should we just accept it?" Fu Jingyi also felt a little embarrassed, "I'll ask Shopkeeper Wu another day."

A few days later, Fu Jingyi went to find Shopkeeper Wu and said, "Just take it with confidence. I have a share too." Shopkeeper Wu said, "Old Li doesn't have much of anything except money. If he gives it to you, just take it. If you don't take it, you will be offending him."

Then he learned from Shopkeeper Wu what happened to the Chu family. The Chu residence was deserted, and even the concubine that Master Chu kept outside was gone. When he asked further, Shopkeeper Wu just shook his head and said nothing more. He just told him that the matter was over.

After I told Aunt Wang about this, everyone remained silent. After an unknown amount of time, Aunt Wang sighed and said, "Since the big shots have said it's over, we don't care. It's not that we are cruel, but we simply don't have the ability to influence the development and outcome of things."

Qi Xuan also thought that since it was over, we should just get on with what we were supposed to do. He decided to divide the things in the box among everyone, and then the family discussed whether to set up the stall again.

"I went to the pier and found a place selling fried dumplings." Fu Jingyi said with disdain, "It's next to our couple." Qi Yue pouted, "I thought they were good people. I didn't expect... Humph"

Aunt Wang, however, was open-minded. "Someone will definitely copy us. Forget it. Let's rest for two days and try again. This time, make more spicy diced rabbit. If it doesn't work, we'll just sell the diced rabbit first."

Fu Jingyi and Qi Zheng decided to take advantage of the two days at home to go to the mountain to have a look, and it would be best if they could catch some more rabbits. Qi Xuan had other ideas. However, he still had some concerns and would discuss it with his husband when he returned. They stayed in the mountain for two days and really brought back a lot of good things. In addition to what they needed to set up the stall, there were also some that could be sold to the Yingke Building.

They appeared at the dock on time again, at the same place as before. As soon as they set up the stall, they saw the couple's faces full of embarrassment. They stopped kneading the dough, smiled awkwardly and wanted to say something.

But Aunt Wang didn't even give them a glance, and silently did her work. Fu Jingyi took out a sign and stood it not far from the tricycle, with a price list written on it. This was also what Qi Xuan came up with two days ago. It doesn't matter if it's plagiarized, I can make more. He has come up with several new fillings in the past two days, so it's just right to test them today.

The sign read, "Mushroom and chicken pan-fried buns 3 wen each", "Spring bamboo shoot pan-fried buns 2 wen each", "Fresh shrimp and black fungus pan-fried buns 3 wen each", "Green vegetable and black fungus pan-fried buns 2 wen each". Meat filling 3 wen each, 5 wen each. Spicy diced rabbit 10 wen each.

You plagiarize, I innovate. Qi Xuan snorted a little arrogantly, and couldn't help complaining about the couple in his heart, "Do you have my ability? If you want to plagiarize, I'm not afraid of you."

Seeing that they had introduced new flavors, the couple looked even uglier and stopped looking at them, silently kneading the dough. Soon people started to come in. People who had originally wanted to buy the couple's pan-fried dumplings saw Aunt Wang's stall come out and introduced so many new flavors, so they all lined up to try the new flavors.

Qi Xuan was not stingy and offered a food tasting, where everyone could try before buying, and if it didn't taste good, they didn't have to buy. This move made the queue even longer.

After noon, he earned more than before. Today, he earned more than 800 coins. Together with the prey that Qi Zheng and his friends bought at the Yingke Building, he earned nearly two taels of silver for the day. Aunt Wang happily gave 20 coins to Lin Chen and Qi Yue each as pocket money. She wanted to give it to Qi Xuan but he refused. "Godmother, I have plenty of silver." When he said this, he raised his head proudly, which made Aunt Wang laugh. Aunt Wang also asked Qi Zheng to keep the money he earned from selling prey. He would marry a husband in the future and he couldn't be without money. After saying this, she glanced at Lin Chen, which made Lin Chen blush.

Qi Xuan has been writing recipes whenever he has time these days. He thinks selling recipes is a good idea. It is easier than writing storybooks, and the money comes faster. He is still a little rusty with writing with a brush, so most of the time he does the writing and Fu Jingyi does the writing. If he writes storybooks, not only will his mouth dry up, but he will also feel sorry for his husband's hands.

Aunt Wang ran the stall for a few more days, and she earned five taels of silver in total. But it was really hard work, so she was wondering whether she should continue. She could endure the hardship herself, but she couldn't bear to let the children go with her. Especially seeing the bruises on Qi Yue and Lin Chen's eyes these days, she felt really distressed.

The money she had earned during this period, plus the money given by Manager Wu and Mr. Li, was almost twenty taels. She really couldn't imagine that her family would ever be able to earn this much money. So Aunt Wang found Qi Xuan and wanted to discuss it with him.

"Brother Xuan, godmother also wants to ask for your opinion. What if we don't set up a stall?" Aunt Wang was also a little worried. It is true that they can earn money, but they can't always be so tired of the children. "Xiaoyue and Xiaochen have bruises on their eyes, and Xiaoyi and Xiaozheng have to go with them every day and go to the mountains every now and then. You also took the trouble to help me think of the menu."

"Godmother is really distressed. The money we have at home is enough for now."

Qi Xuan also felt that if he continued doing this, he could come up with some new ideas, but sooner or later others would learn from them. It would be better to write down all the ideas and sell them to make money quickly.

"Godmother, if we sell the recipe for pan-fried dumplings, we can sell it to Yingkelou," Qi Xuan suggested.

"If they are willing to take it, I certainly think it's okay." Aunt Wang had no objection, "This was originally your idea. Even if the money is sold, it should be you who keeps it."

Qi Xuan gets a headache every time he hears this, "Godmother, I just suggested selling this, but you are the one who does it. Besides, although my elder brother and Xiaochen are engaged, they must be engaged, otherwise I will feel sorry for my brother."

When mentioning Qi Zheng and Lin Chen, Aunt Wang's face looked better. "Yes, yes, yes. I just want to arrange the marriage first. Even if this year is to mourn for Grandma Lin, I can let them get married next year."

Qi Xuan felt that he had hit the nail on the head. "Then doesn't the engagement require money? Godmother, I have told you so many times that I have money, just accept it. Brother Yue will also get married in the future, right? We can't let our in-laws look down on us when the time comes. The dowry must be generous."

Seeing Qi Xuan had said so much, Aunt Wang no longer refused and agreed. The two agreed to let Fu Jingyi write down the recipe another day, and they would set up a stall again to inform everyone that they could go to Yingkelou to buy it in the future.

They didn't talk too loudly, but they didn't talk behind people's backs either, so no one outside the courtyard could hear a word of what they were talking about.
