After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy
Chapter 8: Free Meal
"No need. If you like to eat it, just pick it." Feng Jingheng refused.
Ye Xunqing asked Ye Xunbai to give money to Feng Jingheng, saying, "I picked your peaches a few days ago and made a little money. I won't take your peaches for nothing, so I'll give you these five copper coins. When I make more money, I'll give you 30%. How about that?"
"What kind of peach can be sold for five copper coins?" Feng Jing'an couldn't help asking.
Ye Xunqing said: "This is my secret, I can't tell you, otherwise what if you all make all my money?"
Ye Xunbai stuffed five copper coins into Feng Jingheng's hand and said, "Brother Heng, I have made a lot of money."
Ye Xunqing smiled and said, "It's just a few copper coins, not much money."
Feng Jingheng looked at the peaches in his hand. The peaches on his trees might not be able to be sold for ten copper coins. How did Ye Xunqing make five copper coins with just a few peaches?
"You take it." Feng Jingheng returned the copper coin to Ye Xunqing, "Keep the money for yourself, don't do those things..."
"What are you thinking?" Ye Xunqing saw his expression and knew that he was thinking wrongly, "I'm selling peaches, not my body!"
"I..." Feng Jingheng was not good at speaking, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..."
"Take it!" Ye Xunqing slapped five copper coins into his hand, "Your piece of peaches belongs to me. If you sell it, I'll give you 30% of it. If you don't sell it, I won't give you a penny."
Feng Jingheng replied: "Whether you sell it or not, the money is yours."
With his words, Ye Xunqing felt relieved.
After the two brothers left, the Feng family came over.
Feng Jinghua spoke first, "Five copper coins is not a small amount. It can buy a lot of rice and even a small piece of meat."
"Where did he get the copper coins?" Feng Jing'an's wife Liu Xiaojing asked, "How could he make so much money just by selling peaches?"
Feng Jingheng handed five copper coins to his mother, Ye Hongxia, and said, "Save them for paying back the debt."
Ye Hongxia originally wanted him to keep it, but a look from her man made him take back the words that were on the tip of his tongue, "Okay, okay."
Feng Datong said, "You're not taking the money, are you stupid?"
Feng Jingheng said, "It's not easy for a guy to make a few bucks. How can I have the nerve to take his money?"
"You used to buy him food. Weren't those free?" Feng Datong brought up the past.
Feng Jingheng said angrily: "The past is the past, the present is the present, at worst I won't buy him food in the future!" In fact, he couldn't afford much money to buy food for Ye Xunqing because all the money in the family was used to pay off debts.
The Feng family hasn't split up yet. If they do, who will pay for Feng Jing'an's marriage? Will Feng Datong pay? If we expect the third son of the Feng family to pay, a sow would be able to climb a tree.
Feng Jing'an saw his father and brothers arguing over money again and didn't dare to say a word. If he hadn't caused the trouble first, his eldest brother would have gotten married long ago.
After leaving Feng's house, Ye Xunqing did not return to his own home, but took the money to find Yang Qin.
Ye Zongkuan was a pig farmer and butcher, and he also owned several fields, so his family was relatively wealthy. Yang Qin married him because of his family's wealth, and Ye Zongkuan promised to help Yang Qin support her mother in her old age.
Ye Zongkuan was ten years older than Yang Qin. He had a wife before, but she couldn't give birth to a child for him, so he drove her away and married Yang Qin. However, Yang Qin was also unable to give birth to a child. It was obvious who had the problem.
"Brother, I'm hungry." Ye Xunbai said, "Let's go home and eat."
"Let's not go back to eat vegetable leaves. Let's go to my uncle's house to eat meat." Ye Xunqing said.
Ye Xunbai refused, "My uncle will beat me."
Ye Xunqing hugged Ye Xunbai and said, "Don't worry, I'll stop him from hitting you."
When the two brothers arrived, Yang Qin was cooking in the kitchen, and her mother Wen Xiyan was sitting under the windowsill braiding garlic. When she saw her grandsons coming, Wen Xiyan hurriedly asked them to leave.
Ye Xunqing didn't understand why, but he went out anyway.
When Wen Xiyan saw the two children, she hugged the older one first, then the younger one, and said, "My poor children!"
Ye Xunbai called out "Grandma" first, and then Ye Xunqing followed suit.
"Why are you here?" Wen Xiyan lowered her voice and said, "Go back quickly and don't let your uncle see you."
Ye Xunqing replied: "Where's my aunt? My brother and I are here to give her some money."
Wen Xiyan didn't believe it. "Where do you have any money? Don't worry about what's going on here. Go back quickly."
At this time, a lame old woman came back with a basket. Seeing Wen Xiyan, she scolded her, "What did you give them again, you old fool?"
"No." Ye Xunqing smiled and said, "Yesterday my brother and I went up the mountain to pick up some things to sell. We got nine copper coins from them and thought of giving them to my aunt and uncle." As he spoke, he spread out his palm, and there were indeed nine copper coins stacked inside.
The old lady was blinded by the money and said, "Oh, filial child, come in quickly!" She didn't believe that the money was given by Wen Xiyan, because Wen Xiyan had no money.
When I entered, Ye Zongkuan was sharpening his knife. He was going to slaughter a pig to sell at the market the next day. Now that the wheat had been harvested, people still had money to buy meat.
"What are you doing here again?" Ye Zongkuan glared at the two brothers with his beard puffed.
Ye Xunqing showed the money to Ye Zongkuan directly, "Yesterday my brother and I picked up some things to sell. We wanted to use the money to honor my uncle and aunt."
Everyone is greedy for money. Ye Zongkuan smiled and said, "After so many years, I finally see the return of my wealth."
Seeing him sharpening his knife, Ye Xunqing asked, "Are you going to kill a pig, little uncle?"
Ye Zongkuan's face fell, "Well, if you come to help, take some offal back and cook it."
Oh my goodness, are you so generous? Ye Xunqing must seize the opportunity.
"Uncle-in-law, have you ever heard of mushroom meat sauce?" Ye Xunqing squatted down to talk to him, and instructed Ye Xunbai to pour water on Ye Zongkuan's knife.
"What sauce?" Ye Zongkuan had never heard of it.
Ye Xunqing praised the mushroom and meat sauce to the skies, saying, "The aroma spreads from ten miles away as soon as the jar is opened!"
Ye Zongkuan would not listen to his nonsense, "What do you want to say?"
"I want to buy some meat on credit." Ye Xunqing said with a smile.
Ye Zongkuan sneered, "A dog will always eat shit!"
Ye Xunqing held back and said, "Yes, yes, yes."
Ye Zongkuan said, "I'll give you one pound." Then he added, "I'll give it to you on credit."
A pound is a pound, it’s better than nothing.
After the deal was done, Ye Xunqing and Ye Xunbai did have a meal together, and the cost was nine copper coins.
Yang Qin didn't want it, but Ye Xunqing forced it on her and said, "Aunt, we will have a good life soon."
Yang Qin burst into tears at that moment, "You, you..."
After eating, Ye Xunqing didn't rest for a moment. He borrowed a basket from Ye Zongkuan's house and planned to pick peaches with Ye Xunbai. Unexpectedly, when they arrived, Feng Jingheng had already arrived, and he also took the basket.
