Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

Chapter 111: Little Pixiu, I’m about to teeth!

Old Lady Liu came out and saw the tiger that Boss Yuan had put on the ground and started to blame him.

"Mother, we know our limits. Besides, tiger fur is valuable. We only sold it for thirty taels of silver in the north because of the drought. Here, it should sell for at least two hundred taels of silver, right?"

"The children's clothes will be taken care of."

"Yes, mother, we are being very careful. We will have to trouble you and sister-in-law to make clothes for these children when the time comes." Yuan Laoer said.

Seeing that they all knew their limits, Old Lady Liu said nothing more and said, "It's not a big deal. It's almost the New Year. Consider these clothes as new clothes you bought for these children."

Yuan Lao Da and Yuan Lao Er nodded and began to peel the tiger skin and deer skin.

The little carrot heads excitedly gathered around to watch Big Boss Yuan and Second Boss Yuan peeling the skin.

A complete tiger skin and deerskin were taken off, and the little kids jumped happily on the ground.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Yuan Laosi led them into the school.

"Third brother, come out and help your elder and second brothers." Old Mrs. Liu shouted outside Yuan Lao San's door.

Yuan Laosan had just finished polishing the puppet he was carving. When he heard what Old Lady Liu said, he quickly stood up and walked out.

"Mom, this is the puppet I just carved of a rabbit holding a carrot. I see Yaoyao is often drooling and grinding bones. It must be that she is about to grow teeth. You can give this to Yaoyao to grind her teeth faster."

Old Mrs. Liu took it and looked down at the thing in her hand. A cute rabbit was happily holding a carrot that was bigger than itself. It was so adorable.

Yaoyao has been grinding her teeth on bones a lot lately, so she is definitely teething.

I put the puppet of a rabbit holding a carrot in boiling water and went to see if Yaoyao had gotten up.

.......

The next morning, Yuan Laoer, Yuan Laosi, and Shen Chulan went to the town together in a carriage.

Now Shen Chulan has several jobs and has to handle everything in the restaurant. She looks a lot thinner recently.

Chu Xiaoyi hasn't come back yet, and even Shopkeeper Lin packed up and left after receiving a letter some time ago.

Now Shen Chulan is the only one managing the restaurant.

Shen Chulan got a headache when she thought about the restaurant's accounts.

She is good at cooking, but she is not good at accounting.

"Old Four, please come to the restaurant and help me with the bills during this time. I'm not good at this."

Yuan Laosi: "Okay, after I sell the tiger and deer skins, I'll go to Qingshuilou to help you reconcile the accounts."

The tiger skin and deerskin together were sold for two hundred and fifty taels.

Originally, the tiger skin could be sold for two hundred and thirty taels of silver, but the tiger head was smashed to pieces by Boss Yuan's punch and it looked unsightly, so the buyer only offered two hundred taels of silver.

With the silver, Yuan Laoer bought more than ten pieces of coarse cloth and fine cloth, and more than two hundred kilograms of cotton.

As the carriage was driving towards Qingshui Tower, there was a commotion ahead. A group of soldiers in military uniforms followed the three horses in front with steady steps and in unison.

The horse in the middle is blood red all over, with shiny mane and is agile and strong.

Yuan Laosi recognized that it was a Ferghana horse.

The horses on both sides are brown with shiny fur, but their breed is not as good as that of the Arabian horses.

The man riding the Ferghana horse was wearing golden flowing cloud armor, had a feminine face, sharp eyes, and stared ahead with his lips pursed.

The common people all avoided it to avoid being involved in the fatal disaster.

Yuan Laoer quickly drove the carriage into an alley nearby.

Looking at the general-looking figure wearing golden flowing cloud armor, Yuan Lao Er asked, "What's going on? Shouldn't these soldiers be defending the border against the barbarians? Why are they here?"

"I don't know, I guess he's here to do some business." Yuan Laosi shook his head.

Yuan Lao Er nodded. "I don't know what's going on at the border right now. Manager Liu said the border was about to be lost, but it's been so long and nothing like that has happened."

"It's the best outcome that it didn't happen. It shows that our country's military is strong and has resisted the invasion of the barbarians." Yuan Laosi said.

"Yes, it's the best outcome if it doesn't happen."

Yuan Laoer watched them pass by and drove the carriage out of the alley.

When he returned home in the evening, Yuan Laoer handed the money he earned from selling tiger skins and deerskins to Old Lady Liu.

Old Lady Liu took out a hundred taels of silver and said, "You are masters now, so it's always good to have some money on you."

Then he divided the silver into three parts and gave them to Yuan Lao Da, Yuan Lao Er, and Yuan Lao San.

Yuan Lao Da, Yuan Lao Er, and Yuan Lao San thought what Old Lady Liu said made sense, so they accepted the silver.

Mom is right. Now that the New Year is almost here, it’s time to give red envelopes to my disciples.

Yaoyao was drooling as she bit the rabbit-shaped carrot that Yuan Laosan made for her.

The small bib made by Old Lady Liu was wrapped around her neck, and it was now wet.

Seeing this, Old Lady Liu took off the spittoon and put it on the brazier to roast, then took another piece and put it around Yaoyao's neck.

When Yaoyao's mouth was opened, white appeared on her gums.

Yaoyao turned her head away and struggled out of Old Lady Liu's hands. She frowned, pouted, and her whole face became even rounder.

"ah!"

So itchy!

Old Lady Liu smiled and said, "Yaoyao is going to grow teeth. Once the teeth come out, she can eat meat porridge."

Hearing this, Yaoyao looked at Old Lady Liu with bright eyes.

She said that her gums had been itchy lately, and she always wanted to bite someone, and her saliva was flowing. It turned out that her teeth were growing.

After knowing the truth, Yaoyao held the rabbit and the radish in both hands and gnawed them hard.

Teeth, come out!

Little Pixiu, I want to eat meat!

The day passed quickly, and Old Lady Liu and Ye Wan started making new clothes with the cloth and cotton they had just bought yesterday.

Holding a ruler, he asked his apprentices to line up and measure their bodies one by one.

When the mothers of the apprentices heard that the Yuan family was going to make new clothes for their children, they all brought valuable things from home and expressed their embarrassment.

They were already very grateful to the Yuan family for accepting their children to learn skills. They felt embarrassed to have meals at the Yuan family every day. Now they felt very sorry when they heard that the Yuan family was going to make new clothes for their children.

Old Lady Liu said with a stern face, "Why? It's normal for a master to make clothes for his apprentices. These kids are very sensible. They are busy helping with the work every day. They deserve a new dress."

No matter what Old Lady Liu said, the women all wanted the Yuan family to accept their things, otherwise they would take the children back.

This made Old Lady Liu very angry, but she couldn't scold them, so she had to accept the women's things.

The women stayed and helped Old Lady Liu and Ye Wan make clothes.

The women used the extra scraps of cloth that had been used at home and made a piece of cloth for Yaoyao, which meant to collect cloth from a hundred families and gather blessings from a hundred families.

Life in Lihua Village is happy and ordinary.

This happy and ordinary day was suddenly broken one day.
