Chapter 15 The Death Was Too Suspicious
"The road from our Shijia Village to the county town is mostly mountainous. It rained last night, and I heard that Shi Sun was driving too fast. When he turned a corner, the mountain road was slippery, and he drove straight off the cliff!"
"So many families come to the city, how come everyone else is fine, but only this couple had an accident?"
"You don't necessarily suspect that someone is trying to harm them, do you?"
“You’re overthinking it. It was just an accident. The couple had an accident halfway there. Someone saw their oxcart plunge off the cliff. They stopped immediately to check and found nothing wrong.”
"The county government also sent people to investigate. It was because the mountain road was treacherous and slippery, and Shi Sun, who was driving, did not slow down when he was turning, which caused the accident."
"What a pity, what a pity! Their son had a chance to enter Bailu Academy, and the couple were supposed to enjoy endless happiness for the rest of their lives, but unexpectedly they died..."
Without Yu Wan needing to inquire, news of Wang Cuicui and her husband's accident was everywhere.
Everyone thought it was an accident, and even the county government officials, after sending people to investigate, concluded it was an accident.
Because the oxcart plunged off a cliff with a rushing river below, the couple were completely wiped out.
The incident involved only two powerless villagers from Shijia Village, and the county yamen runners only did a superficial job before closing the case.
But Yu Wan always felt that the deaths of Wang Cuicui and her husband were too suspicious.
In the original story, these two lived peacefully until ten years later, but now they've lived so many years earlier.
This matter weighed heavily on Yu Wan's heart, causing her to feel depressed for several days.
Every time Shen saw her, he mistakenly thought she was missing Yun Shang too much.
Yu Wan tried to explain once, but Shen Shi didn't believe her at all, so she stopped bothering to explain.
She's having a different headache right now.
Make money.
The Yun family is really short of money!
She thought that since Madam Shen was willing to make her a new quilt, she must still have some money saved up. But when she overheard Madam Shen talking to Yunxi, she learned that the Yun family's total silver was less than one tael!
Not to mention that Yun Shang needs to pay her tuition next month and Yun Xi needs to buy medicine, this amount of money won't even last the three of them a few days.
I knew the Yun family was poor, but I never imagined they were this poor!
These past few days, Yu Wan has been thinking about how to make money.
Shijia Village is located on the border of the Zhao Kingdom, bordering the neighboring Northern Qi Kingdom. Huicheng County, upstream from Shijia Village, is a thriving commercial hub and a key trading post between the two countries.
In the past, the Yun family earned money by selling Shen Shi and Yun Xi's embroidery and by having Yun Shang copy books for others.
They didn't earn much, but they spent a lot. So the Yun family had little wealth and couldn't save money.
After inquiring for several days, Yu Wan discovered that the most profitable businesses in Huicheng County were food stalls.
Many merchants travel to and from Huicheng County. When they are hungry, they will stop to buy some meat-based, filling, and easy-to-carry food.
The most popular item sold in Yashi County is meat pie.
There were just too many stalls selling meat pies. Yu Wan tried the one with the most business. The meat filling was fragrant and tender, and it burst with juice when you bit into it. After eating one, she couldn't help but eat another.
Yu Wan wasn't confident she could make a better pancake than this meat pie, so she had to come up with another idea.
For the past few days, she has been spending ten copper coins each day to take an oxcart from an old man in Shijia Village to the county town. After three days, Yu Wan finally found the seasonings at the market and decided what to make.
Yun family.
When Madam Shen, who was busy at home, saw that Yu Wan had returned home so early, she put down her work and came over with some surprise. "Yu Niang, why are you back so early today?"
Madam Shen's face was full of gentle smiles.
She had always liked this daughter-in-law very much. Although the daughter-in-law was just an orphan girl she had bought, and others felt that she was not good enough for her son, Madam Shen felt that there was no better daughter-in-law than Yu Niang.
Previously, Yu Niang only helped with household chores and took care of them, but now she has taken the initiative to offer to help the family earn money. Shen Shi felt indescribably moved.
You couldn't find such a wonderful daughter-in-law even with a lantern!
Unfortunately, her blind son didn't know how to cherish it!
Yu Wan had no idea what Shen was thinking. She raised her hand, waved the object in her hand at Shen, and smiled brightly, "Mother, I know what kind of business to do!"
Looking at the pile of groceries she was carrying, Shen asked, puzzled, "What are you planning to do with this?"
Yu Wan smiled mysteriously, "Bo Bo Chicken!"
Bo Bo... Chicken?
For a food stall to be successful, the first requirement is that the food is delicious, and the second is that it is novel.
People of all eras have a curiosity and want to try new things.
Furthermore, Bo Bo Chicken is easy to carry, making it very suitable for sale in Huicheng County.
In the evening, Yu Wan used the ingredients she bought in the afternoon to make a bowl of Bo Bo Chicken. Since it was just for her family, she didn't skewer it with bamboo sticks.
Shen praised the food highly, and even Yunxi, who couldn't eat spicy food, couldn't resist taking a small bite.
The mother and daughter both praised the fresh food that Yu Wan made, which greatly boosted Yu Wan's confidence.
After all, this was the first time in her two lives that she had done it herself.
All her knowledge came from books; it was all theory, with no practical experience whatsoever.
Seeing that both Shen Shi and Yun Xi liked it so much, Yu Wan couldn't help but look forward to it as well.
The next morning, Shen and Yunxi helped prepare the ingredients.
Yu Wan selected more than ten kinds of ingredients, with fewer meats and more vegetables.
The meat was sliced thinly and skewered, and a total of three pounds of meat filled a whole basin.
Because it was her first time selling, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to sell them, so she didn't prepare a lot of various ingredients.
Shen and Yunxi took on the task of preparing all the ingredients, while Yu Wan only needed to cook the broth for the Bobo Chicken.
She has a good memory and remembers things she was interested in from her past life very clearly. She directly followed the recipe for Bo Bo Chicken to make the soup base, and the soup base she made was fragrant and spicy, making it irresistible.
The cooked broth is placed in a clean, large wooden bucket, and then all the ingredients are put in to soak. It will be ready to be sold in Huicheng County.
Madam Shen was worried about Yu Wan going alone and originally wanted to accompany her.
Yu Wan refused without even thinking.
“Mother-in-law, Yunxi is not feeling well, and it is not safe for her to stay at home alone. I will be home before dark, and nothing will happen.”
Yunxi was truly powerless. If she were left alone at home, and someone broke into the Yun family with malicious intent, she would be like a lamb to the slaughter, utterly powerless to resist.
But Shen was also worried about Yu Wan.
Although her daughter-in-law wasn't exactly stunningly beautiful, she was already quite shapely at the age of sixteen. Shen was worried that she would be mistreated if she went to sell food all by herself.
The Shen family was truly caught in a dilemma.
Yu Wan wasn't worried about that much; for her, not having money was the biggest problem right now!
Without money, she couldn't even get the drugs out of Huicheng County, let alone go to Shengjing, which is more than a thousand kilometers away from Huicheng County.
She needs to leave the Yun family and return to Shengjing to reunite with her relatives, and she needs money!
