A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

"you you you……"

Han's face turned purple. She never imagined that the Leng family, which had always been a soft persimmon, would produce such a sharp-tongued and mean girl.

"What are you talking about? I'll count to three.

If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I will hold a loud speaker and shout all the way from our Lengzhan Village to Beicheng County, and see if your family can save face."

Han was not happy about being threatened, but she did not dare to make a big deal out of it, so she could only swallow her anger and said, "If you want to retreat, then retreat. I'd love to.

With your family being so poor and your marriage having been rejected, no one will want you in the future."

"You don't need to worry about that. People are not what they seem to be. We know clearly what kind of people and what kind of things they do, and what kind of treacherous things they do."

Han snorted in a sarcastic tone and slapped the engagement letter. Leng Huai stepped forward immediately.

"There's still an engagement token that hasn't been given!"

Han glared at him in dissatisfaction, "Are you blind? The silver lock is right on the table!"

"There was also a silver collar, I remember it very clearly!"

In order to show how much her family valued their daughter, when the engagement came, the Leng family prepared a silver necklace and a silver lock as a token of love for Leng Su, both of which were meant to bless her with safety, health and success.

"No, how can I remember something that happened so long ago!"

Han wanted to cheat and get away with it, but Leng Yan didn't give her the chance.

"That's right. Since you said you don't remember, then we'll go and search. If we can't find it, we can use something else as a substitute."

Seeing her eager look, Han didn't dare to let them in.

However, it was not easy to take back what she had said before, so she pretended to be generous.

"If it's gone, it's gone. Since you insist that it's with me, I'll admit my mistake and give you five hundred coins as compensation."

"Forget it, since Auntie really can't remember, let's go to your house to help you recall your memories."

Although Leng Yan didn't understand the prices of goods in that era, he was not a fool. A mere five hundred coins was enough to fool a fool.

"Two taels at most."

Seeing that she couldn't get away with it, Han gritted her teeth with a look of resentment.

"Two taels, or I'll be left with nothing. If I'm forced into a corner, I'll just hang myself at your doorstep."

In those days, three taels of silver were enough for a family of five to eat and drink for a year.

Leng Yan looked at her uncle and nodded in agreement when she saw his gesture.

Han took out two taels of silver angrily, her face distorted.

"I've given you the money. Now it's time for you to return the things so that you don't have to rely on us anymore."

"Bah, who cares!"

Zhang Cui Niang glared at Han fiercely, then turned to her youngest daughter and said, "He Jie'er, go get the engagement letter from your grandfather."

Seeing Leng He running out, Zhang Cuiniang stepped forward and hugged Leng Su, "Little sister, the Han family is not a good family.

We didn’t know people well before, but this may not be a bad thing, at least we have escaped from this den of wolves and tigers.”

Zhang Cuiniang comforted her carefully, and was even more grateful that she had seen the true face of the Han family so early, thus saving Leng Su from the suffering she would have to endure in the future.

Soon Leng He took back the engagement letter. Leng Su stepped forward with a dead heart and returned the token of love that symbolized their love stronger than a rock.

Leng Yan looked up and found that the token was actually a red rope woven into a tassel with a stone tied to it.

She immediately burst into laughter out of anger. It was just a piece of stone. Sun Caiwen was really capable of that.

I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never seen anyone so shameless.

Leng Yan was so angry that she stepped forward, grabbed Han by the back of the collar, like a chicken, and threw her into the snow outside the door in no time.

Seeing this, the villagers who were watching the melon-eating nearby fled away for fear of being treated in the same way.

Ignoring Han who was cursing outside the door, Leng Yan threw the person out in one go and closed the door quickly.

The matter was settled, but except for Leng Yan, no one in the Leng family looked happy.

Old man Leng came out of the west room with his hands behind his back. It was inconvenient for him to come out because there were mostly women around, but he heard everything that happened clearly.

"Su girl, if you want to blame someone, blame your father for being incompetent and letting you suffer.

But what Sister Yan said is also right. The Sun family flatters the powerful and bullies the weak, and can stop losses in time. It is not a bad thing that they did not let you enter that tiger's den. "

"Yes, that Sun Caiwen is not a good person. My second sister-in-law will find you a good one tomorrow. Even if he stays single for life, your second brother and I can afford to support him!"

Leng Xun in the west room heard his wife's words and beat his injured leg weakly. He knew that he had married a good wife, but he was a loser and could not protect his whole family.

Leng Yan didn't like gloomy mood and tried hard to change the subject.

"Grandpa, mother, and aunt, now that we have two taels of silver in our hands, can we have a more prosperous New Year?"

It was not just about improving the food. When the money just passed through his hands, Leng Yan actually heard the voice of the system.

"Ding Dong, the system shopping items have been opened. The host currently has 2,000 copper coins. Please come and shop."

She was so surprised that she flipped through the pages and found that one copper coin now was equivalent to one dollar in modern times, and the prices of goods were mostly the same as those in her previous life.

Although she had a lot of things she wanted to buy, it wasn't now.

Because the two taels of silver just went through her hands and finally fell into the hands of Zhang Cuiniang, the head of the household, and she was left with nothing.

Hearing Leng Yan say this, Old Man Leng also looked at Zhang Cuiniang.

"Second brother's wife, what Yan said is true. The oil and salt at home are almost gone. It's time to go buy some.

Let's buy some white flour, we have to eat dumplings during the winter solstice and New Year."

Old man Leng discussed the matter politely. He knew that only those who manage a household would know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, let alone having to support a whole family.

He saw how hard it was for his daughter-in-law to spend every penny she had.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Dad!"

Zhang Cuiniang was not a stingy person, it was just that her family was too poor and every penny had to be spent wisely.

After the matter was settled, Zhang Cuiniang gave five hundred copper coins the next morning, and Grandpa Leng brought his eldest grandson Leng Cang, as well as Leng Su and Leng Yan, who were there to relax, into the city.

There was snow on the road, so they spent four copper coins to take the ox cart at the entrance of the village into the city.

After staggering into the city for half an hour, they headed straight for the grain store.

Beicheng County is located in the north-central part of the country. Although half of the people here eat noodles and half eat rice, the prices of rice and noodles are different.

White flour cost ten copper coins per pound, and rice cost fifteen copper coins per pound.

There was no need to worry about rice, Old Man Leng only asked for 15 kilograms of white flour.

After weighing, she was about to pay, but Leng Yan saw the soybeans next to them. She thought about the only winter vegetables at home, which were radishes and cabbages, so she wanted to grow some bean sprouts to eat.

She pestered him to buy some, and Mr. Leng couldn't bear to refuse, so he finally bought fifty cents of soybeans.

This time, two hundred coins were spent, which made people feel that money was really wasted.

When he arrived at the grocery store, he spent another hundred coins and bought a small jar of salt.

Finally we arrived at the pork stall.
