The pretty widow is addicted to money, and the little wolfdog asks for a hug

"You - woo woo..." Shu Hongxue stomped his feet angrily, turned around and ran into the door.

"Second Miss!" The two maids behind her immediately followed.

Shu Mingzong snorted complacently, as if saying, "Bitch! You think you can fight me?"

Gu Qinghuai felt that he looked like a red rooster that had won a battle, with his chin raised to the sky.

Gu Qinghuai felt a little strange when he saw the red rooster showing off.

That weird Shu Hongxue just now is the Red Rooster’s sister?

However, the relationship between these two people seems to be incompatible. Could it be another fight between the legitimate and illegitimate children?

The red rooster strode over, raised his hand and bowed to Gu Qinghuai and Qi Yuanshuo: "It's a misfortune for our family, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you two."

Gu Qinghuai smiled generously: "It's okay. I'm just watching you play tricks on me. It's quite fun."

When Shu Mingzong heard this, he burst into laughter.

This little lady is quite interesting!

When ordinary people were threatened by Shu Hongxue, they would shrink back in fear and would not even dare to raise their heads.

Even though the young woman in front of him knew that he and Shu Hongxue were both children of the county magistrate, she still held her head high and looked calm, without any sign of timidity or fear.

Shu Mingzong took a deep look at Gu Qinghuai and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, did you bring any crickets?"

Gu Qinghuai stepped aside, and Qi Yuanshuo, carrying a bunch of small bamboo baskets, appeared in front of Shu Mingzong intact.

Shu Mingzong hurried forward, grabbed a small bamboo cage, and looked at it excitedly without even glancing at Qi Yuanshuo.

The crickets in the bamboo cage seemed to have seen a great mentor. They were extremely excited. They pushed the cage wall with their two strong long legs and jumped up and down, showing endless energy to vent.

The veteran playboy Shu Mingzong could roughly estimate the fighting power of the little thing with just a few glances.

Next, Shu Mingzong checked all thirty small bamboo cages, with the smile on his face never fading.

"Yes, yes, I want all these thirty crickets!" Shu Mingzong waved to the servant behind him, "Give this young sister-in-law thirty taels of silver!"

Just as the servant was about to take out the money, Gu Qinghuai suddenly said, "Master Shu, you didn't bring the bamboo cages? How are you going to take these crickets back? Each cricket costs one tael of silver, not including these small bamboo cages. These bamboo cages were woven by my eldest brother with great effort. If you need them, they are three cents each."

"Only three cents? Come on, pay!" Shu Mingzong saw that the small bamboo cage was exquisite and cute. It looked very high-end to use it to hold crickets. If he resold the crickets and the cage together, he could sell it for five taels of silver per cage!

There were many people who needed to fight crickets in brothels, gambling houses, taverns, and even among the playboys on horseback.

In addition to county towns, there are also provincial capitals and imperial capitals.

As long as the goods are good, Shu Mingzong will have plenty of buyers!

A handsome servant named Saohua handed Gu Qinghuai thirty taels of silver, plus ninety cents.

Gu Qinghuai knew that Shu Mingzong was not a fussy person, so he kindly reminded him, "Master Shu, I'm not kidding you. These crickets are very powerful. They can fight against all opponents in the world for at least a month. However, crickets have a very short lifespan and can be thrown away after a month. Feed them with vegetable leaves, fruits, grains and other foods on a daily basis and take good care of them."

Hearing this, Shu Mingzong once again carefully looked at Gu Qinghuai, and felt that this young woman was quite knowledgeable, so he asked, "May I ask your name, sister-in-law?"

"Gu Qinghuai, you can call me Madam Gu," Gu Qinghuai bowed like a chivalrous knight.

Shu Mingzong returned the greeting and turned his gaze to Qi Yuanshuo beside him, "Where is this little brother?"

Qi Yuanshuo also cupped his hands, "Shi Xiaoshi."

Shu Mingzong burst out laughing when he heard the name, and while laughing, he responded to Qi Yuanshuo: "Laughing at shit? Hahaha... Interesting, interesting."

Qi Yuanshuo: Idiot!

The two parties agreed on the next delivery time, and Gu Qinghuai took Qi Yuanshuo away.

The red rooster's laughter could be heard from behind.

Gu Qinghuai and Qi Yuanshuo went to the livestock trading area in East City.

Because it was early in the morning, the livestock trading area was very busy. Cows, horses, sheep, mules, donkeys... were standing in a pool of trampled manure, waiting to be sold.

People who were buying and selling livestock either talked in low voices or held hands and made offers secretly. The onlookers looked at the livestock in the pen and talked a lot.

Gu Qinghuai spent three taels of silver to buy a one and a half year old donkey.

This little donkey was very smart. As soon as it saw Gu Qinghuai, it rushed over, stuck out its tongue to lick her, and was very affectionate to her.

Fortunately, Gu Qinghuai reacted quickly and dodged it, otherwise he would have been licked by its tongue.

The other donkeys stood there like idiots, their eyes full of clear stupidity. In comparison, Gu Qinghuai naturally liked the spiritual one.

Although this donkey is a little thin, it has a delicate and small head, a slender neck, a compact abdomen, no concave waist or drooping belly, thin limbs, obvious joints, and distinct tendons; it is in very good spirits.

As the saying goes, when choosing a donkey, you should choose one with a "dry head, dry legs and dry tail", "watery butt" and "bright tendons and bones". Such donkeys are strong and have good reproductive capacity.

At the end of the world, Gu Qinghuai met a donkey breeder who was very knowledgeable when talking about donkeys.

It’s a pity that the professional farmer was killed like a donkey.

Gu Qinghuai asked Xiao Shitou to lead the donkey and wait aside, while she went to buy all the pork fat and lard on the pork stall, spending a total of ten taels and thirteen cents.

This lard will be enough to last for a while.

In order to keep the pork fat fresh, Gu Qinghuai collected most of it in the space and left a small part for cover.

Now they had the donkey, but they only needed a wooden cart. Gu Qinghuai and Xiao Shitou led the donkey and went straight to Xiao An's carpenter shop.

She remembered that Xiao An's Carpenter Shop had ready-made wooden carts for sale.

When they arrived at Xishui Street, Gu Qinghuai tied the donkey in the backyard of Xiaoan's carpenter shop and asked the two brothers Lu Xiaoan to help look after it.

When Lu Xiaoan saw Gu Qinghuai, he was as enthusiastic as if he had seen his own mother. He kept telling her not to worry and that he would keep a close eye on Master Donkey.

Gu Qinghuai took the loudspeaker and Xiao Shitou and went directly to the "Qiaogong" carpenter shop opposite.

Li Chunwei's mother-in-law, Mrs. Qiu, was napping on a recliner beside the counter while Li Chunwei was doing some cleaning in the shop.

In addition to her, there was a woman in her twenties who was applying tung oil to the newly made furniture.

Gu Qinghuai stood at the door of the craftsman's shop, and Qi Yuanshuo stood behind her.

Seeing that Gu Qinghuai was full of murderous intent, Qi Yuanshuo guessed that the person she was quarreling with was this "Skillful Carpenter's Shop".

When Gu Qinghuai saw Li Chunwei, he raised the corners of his lips and smiled wickedly. Then he put the loud speaker to his lips, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly: "Li Chunwei!"

The three words "Li Chunwei" suddenly exploded like thunder in front of the skilled carpenter's shop on Xishui Street.
