Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Mrs. Han thought for a moment and said, "How about this? One catty is half an ounce of silver."

Qiao Jian'er's heart skipped a beat. She thought it could be at least 700 wen per catty, but Madam Han directly cut the price in half.

Dacheng and Dayong were also reluctant. They felt that although the mushrooms in the jar were a little inferior to the chicken mushrooms, they were still quite delicious.

Mrs. Han saw through their thoughts and said with a smile, "I'm not deliberately giving you a low price. Besides, it's not cheap. Yes, the new ones you brought are also very delicious, but sometimes the taste is just one notch lower, and it's completely different."

Qiao Jian'er still wanted to fight for it: "Madam, can't you give me a little more?"

"I've already told you the reason. To be honest, our family has tasted all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and the sea, but the chicken mushrooms you sent earlier are the only ones that amazed me. These are valuable, but not as valuable as the chicken mushrooms."

Qiao Lianer thought of the wild mushrooms all over the mountains. Even if they were five hundred coins per pound, as long as the quantity was large, they could still be sold for a lot of money.

"Okay, if Madam is willing to accept it, we will send it back tomorrow."

"I'll give this can to my wife to try."

Mrs. Han's smile was warmer. "It looks a bit heavy. I'd better pay you. I can't let you work in vain."

As he said this, he asked the person next to him to take out two taels of silver and hand it to Qiao Lianer.

No matter whether you give more or less, it is a token of thought from both parties.

Qiao Jianer took the silver and bowed to Mrs. Han.

She really had no intention of selling these pounds, so she should be grateful that someone gave them to her.

"Sister, why don't we go ask other places? Maybe they will offer a higher price." Dacheng said.

Qiao Jian'er thought for a moment and shook her head: "The fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better. The people in Anning Alley are wealthy because they have means and abilities that others don't have. If they send someone to follow us, then we won't be able to continue this business."

She was also thankful because Mrs. Han did not delve into where these things came from, but accepted them just because they tasted good.

If another family also wants to make this money, or avoid paying this money, then the Qiao family will have to forget about building a big yard.

This made Dayong and Dacheng a little nervous. Thinking about the Song family's behavior, they knew that they must not let more people know.

Old Mrs. Qiao was cleaning the pigpen, while Old Man Qiao was reinforcing the pigpen outside, nailing wooden boards in the larger gaps to prevent the piglets from running out.

Old Mrs. Qiao: "Why don't we buy a cow and a cart? Then the children won't have to walk to town every day."

Old Man Qiao: "It would be better to buy a horse and a carriage so that we can go to the county town more conveniently."

When Old Mrs. Qiao heard this, she started cursing and almost shoveled the manure in the shovel onto Old Man Qiao's face.

"A horse costs eighty taels, a carriage twenty taels, that adds up to a hundred taels. These are the things that rich people use, but they don't even consider how much money they have in their pockets. They're just thinking about whether their house is built or not."

Old man Qiao couldn't help but tremble as he looked at the gradually approaching atmosphere, and quickly begged for mercy with a bitter face.

"I was wrong, old woman. I was just trying to make it easier for the children. Horses run faster, and carriages are protected from wind, rain, and sun."

"So it's a good thing. Good things are always expensive. A good cow, plus an ox cart, costs over twenty taels. It hurts me to spend so much money all at once. But no matter how much it hurts, it's not as important as the children."

Dayong walked into the yard and said, "Grandpa, grandma, whatever cows you want, whatever ox carts you want. It's only a short distance from home to the town, and we even live in a thatched cottage. You think you can enjoy yourself? We are not that pampered."

"Yes, grandpa and grandma, let's work together to achieve the goal of building a house first, and then we can talk about other things." Qiao Lianer said.

"When I have money in the future, I will buy a carriage and go to the county town more conveniently."

Old Mrs. Qiao had only been planning to buy these things, but now it was totally unrealistic to buy them at such a high cost.

Seeing that the children were so sensible, she said, "Then wait a little longer. It's not worth buying an ox cart now, let alone a horse carriage."

"By the way, what did the Han family say?"

"We've just found these mushrooms, and we'll give you 500 coins for every pound we squeeze out," Qiao Lianer said.

Old Mrs. Qiao thought for a moment and said, "Five hundred wen isn't bad. The taste isn't much different, but that little difference can make something even more special."

This statement is similar to what Mrs. Han said. Qiao Jianer admires her in her heart. Although the old man has lived in the countryside for decades and has no education, he can understand many truths.

The work in the pigsty was almost done. Old Mrs. Qiao came out of the pigsty and washed her hands. Qiao Jianer gave her two taels of silver.

This time, Old Mrs. Qiao resolutely refused to accept it.

She held Qiao Jianer's hand and clenched the two taels of silver tightly.

"Sickle, keep it. You've brought wealth to the family, so I can't not leave some for you. I'd rather not have it with you. It's okay for you to use it or not, just put it in your pocket."

Seeing that the chicken mushrooms ahead were becoming less and less, Old Mrs. Qiao suspected that she could not afford to build a house anymore and that her savings would be slowly consumed.

But now, she has regained her confidence.

This confidence was given to her by Qiao Jianer.

Seeing that Old Lady Qiao was determined, Qiao Jian'er had no choice but to keep the silver for now. When she gave her pocket money before, Old Lady Qiao also gave her more. Of course, her brothers and sisters had no objection, and some even felt that it was not enough.

"Grandma, let's build the house this summer."

"Okay, there's money all over the mountain, let's go pick it up now. Jian'er, you stay home and take care of your mother."

Old Mrs. Qiao gave the two taels of silver to Qiao Jianer in front of the other members of the Qiao family.

The sickle is worth it, so there is no need to hide it. The two taels are not enough, but if it is too much, she doesn't want it.

There was not much time left in the afternoon, but except for Qiao Yunni and Qiao Jianer, everyone else went up the mountain, each with a backpack. Even Lu and Xiao Meng, who were going to cook, went to the near mountain. Unlike the chicken mushrooms, which were almost impossible to find near the mountain, those mushrooms were all over the mountain.

They haven't felt anything unusual since lunch, so they know that those things are completely fine.

Old Mrs. Qiao then instructed Dayong and Dacheng to go to the hills in different directions, contact other members of the Qiao family, and teach everyone how to identify these new mushrooms.

After applying the plaster for a few days, Qiao Yunni can now throw away her crutches and try to walk slowly and steadily.

She now believes that her legs and feet can be healed, so she often remains silent and thinks about problems that she cannot figure out.

The fact that she was kicked out of the Song family was full of weirdness from beginning to end.

Qiao Lian'er lay on a bamboo chair under the eaves, squinting her eyes, her consciousness wandering in her farm space.

Feeling some movement at the door, she opened her eyes and saw a man about thirty years old, dressed in green cloth, standing there holding a jar in one hand and something else in the other.

The man had a somewhat dark skin, but he was quite handsome with thick eyebrows, a high nose and big eyes. He was tall and strong, and looked like he had a lot of muscle.
