Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos

It turned out that the two people from the Wu Mansion and the Jiang Mansion were competitors. They not only fought in business, but also competed secretly in private. Just a few days ago, at the birthday banquet of the old lady of the county magistrate's family, the Jiang Mansion brought out some peace fruit, which attracted everyone's attention. The master of the Wu family was not convinced, so he took great pains to get a live musk deer, invited everyone to his house, and held a spring banquet.

The housekeeper came to report: "Master, the deer is gone."

Mr. Wu was discussing the reception of guests with his wife. When he heard the butler's words, he thought he had heard wrongly and ordered: "Butler, you must serve that deer well and behave well when the guests come later."

"Master, the deer is missing..."

The butler repeated it again.

"Butler, you are an old man in the mansion, and you have always been reliable and prudent in your work. Are you thinking of going home to retire today?"

Mr. Wu picked up the teacup in his hand and took a sip of tea, showing no emotion at all.

"The boy in charge came to report this morning that the musk deer was tied up fine, but somehow it disappeared. I have sent someone to look for it."

The butler wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Master, the banquet is about to begin. We have to think of a way to see if there is anything that can be used as a substitute."

Mrs. Wu was standing by, extremely anxious. If the wild animal was lost today, how would she explain to all the guests?

"Replacement? Is it so easy to find a live wild animal? Where can we find one now? Send someone to look for it. If they can't find any, get out!"

The banquet was about to begin, and the deer suddenly ran away. Wouldn't it be a joke if this was told to others? Old Man Jiang would laugh at him to death. No, he couldn't afford to lose face. He wondered if he would be able to stay in Anding County in the future.

"Master, there is a girl in the kitchen who said she has a live sika deer in her hands. Although its leg is injured, it is still alive."

When Mr. Wu was at a loss, he immediately returned to his usual calm when he heard what the butler said.

"Why would you look for musk deer when you have sika deer? Take me there quickly."

Mr. Wu went to the kitchen in person.

Yao Qingnian found a deserted place, quietly brought the sika deer out, put it in a sack, and returned to the kitchen of the Wu Mansion, waiting for the housekeeper to come.

"Sir, this is the girl."

The butler introduced to Mr. Wu.

"Miss, you said there was a live sika deer?"

Mr. Wu walked forward and spoke to Yao Qingnian who was standing in the yard.

"Yes."

Yao Qingnian untied the sack, revealing the sika deer antlers inside. Except for the injuries on the legs, the rest of the antlers were intact.

"This is a male deer, and it's still alive. Haha, it looks like I can give Old Man Jiang a slap in the face today. This wild animal is no better than his damn peace fruit!"

Mr. Wu laughed heartily. Yao Qingnian thought, "The peace apple? Isn't that the apple I sold to Madam Jiang?"

"How are you going to sell this deer, girl?"

"This deer is full of treasures. I don't know what it is. Sir, please make an offer. If it's suitable, you can take it away."

Yao Qingnian didn't know the prices in ancient times. If he compared it with the price of Polygonum multiflorum, it would have started at at least three hundred taels, right?

"Okay, since the girl is so straightforward, I won't beat around the bush. Five hundred taels!"

The price Mr. Wu offered exceeded expectations. A deer could be sold for five hundred taels. It seems that the money from hunting comes quickly.

"Okay, Master Wu, you can take the deer!"

Yao Qingnian gave the deer to the housekeeper.

"Girl, did you kill this deer?"

Mr. Wu looked at Yao Qingnian. He had been in business for many years and had a sharp eye for people. Although she was dressed like a village woman, her aura was not comparable to that of an ordinary village woman.

"I was lucky to meet you by chance."

"Haha, next time you have such a good thing, just send it to us. We in the Wu Mansion will accept it at any time. Butler, take the girl to settle the bill."

"Master, the green rice balls and braised food are also made by Miss Yao. She is very skilled."

Seeing that the master was in a very good mood, Nanny Sun spoke well of Yao Qingnian.

"Oh? I didn't expect Miss Yao to have such cooking skills. Next time you have such delicacies, send them here as well. Madam Sun, I'll leave this to you. I ate the braised food. It's really good with wine."

"Yes, sir!"

"The banquet is about to begin, hurry up and get ready! Butler, take the deer with you, or you'll have to pack up and get out if it runs away again!"

Mr. Wu turned around and left happily.

The housekeeper finally breathed a sigh of relief and took Yao Qingnian to pay the bill.

"The deer is five hundred taels, and the green dumplings and braised food are five and a half taels. I paid a deposit of one tael of silver before, so the total is five hundred and four and a half taels."

The housekeeper paid Yao Qingnian some silver. She took the silver and left the Wu Mansion in great joy. Today was another day to make a fortune.

After leaving Wu's house, Yao Qingnian went to the shop to check out the decoration.

When we arrived at the shop, the decorator was directing the workers to work: "Be careful, you must be careful in this area."

I didn’t expect the workers at Muyuanfang to be so responsible?

"Girl, be careful. The workers are working. They don't want to hurt you by mistake."

When the decorator saw Yao Qingnian coming over, he hurriedly reminded her and asked her to follow him out the door.

"You have worked hard!"

She took out a hundred coins and handed them to the master, asking him to treat the workers to tea.

"Thank you girl!"

When the workers heard the girl invite them to tea, they worked harder and expressed their gratitude.

"Miss Yao, thank you for that day. If it weren't for you, my father might have been bullied. I have nothing to repay you with. Don't worry, the shop will be beautifully built for you."

"your dad?"

Yao Qingnian looked at the decorator and asked in confusion.

"It was the worker who nearly fell down while carrying sandalwood that day."

"That's right. I just can't stand that bully foreman, so I'm just venting my anger."

No wonder the workers were so dedicated. I thought all the workers at Muyuanfang were like this, but I didn’t expect it was this decorator who helped.

"Anyway, I want to thank Miss Yao for her help. My name is Guan Xu. Feel free to contact me next time you need decoration!"

"Row."

Fang Ye came out of the academy and saw Yao Qingnian. He trotted over and said, "Miss Yao, I asked the decorator about the matter you asked me to ask the other day, but I haven't seen you these days."

"Look, it's almost decorated."

Yao Qingnian pointed to the shop in front of him and looked inside. Sure enough, the layout was almost complete.

"Hey, is that shop opening soon?"

"It's almost done. We plan to open at the end of the month."

"Then remember to tell me when the time comes, and I'll bring my classmates to show my support."

Fang Ye was thinking about the milk tea she made. Not only him, but even his classmates in the academy came to ask him several times where he bought the milk tea. He looked mysterious and didn't tell anyone. It wouldn't be too late to tell them after Miss Yao's shop opened.
