I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!

After hearing Qin's words, Su Tao naturally considered it in her heart. Zhang Feng's apology last time seemed sincere. If Zhang Feng didn't care about her, he wouldn't have begged Aunt Cai to come and plead for her.

Thinking this, Su Tao nodded to Qin Shi.

"Mother, I'll listen to you. I'll go to the city with you tomorrow."

The next day,

Wei Kezhi was waiting at the gate of the Su family's house early in the morning. As soon as Su Banxia opened the courtyard gate, she saw Wei Kezhi.

"How did you come?"

Wei Kezhi said with a stern face:

"Didn't you say you were going to the market today? I was just about to go to town to sell some things, so I'll go with you."

Hearing this, Su Banxia felt a warmth in her heart. She knew that Wei Kezhi was worried that she would be left alone and bullied by Su Feng again, so she wanted to come to the market with her.

So Su Banxia looked at Wei Kezhi and smiled.

"Alright, that's perfect, let's go there together."

As the two were talking, Su Mo rushed out and grabbed Su Banxia's arm, saying softly:

"Sister, are you going to the market? Take me with you, I'll help you buy the goods."

Su Banxia pulled her arm away and said coldly:

"No need. You won't be of any help if you go. You should stay home and help your mother cook."

Seeing that Su Banxia was treating her this way, Su Mo looked at Wei Kezhi with a wronged expression and said:

“Brother Wei, look at my sister, how can she be so unreasonable? I was so eager to help her move her things.”

Wei Kezhi didn't even glance at Su Mo and said coldly:

"Banxia is right, I will help her carry the things."

Seeing Wei Kezhi treat Su Mo this way, Su Banxia felt a secret sense of satisfaction for some reason, so she directly said to Wei Kezhi:

"Let's hurry up and go, lest we keep Uncle Niu waiting."

Wei Kezhi smiled and nodded at Su Banxia, ​​and the two left one after the other.

Su Mo stomped her feet in anger as she watched the two figures leave, muttering to herself:

"Su Banxia, ​​you just wait, you'll have your day."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the courtyard.

After dressing up carefully, Su Tao followed Qin Shi out. Now that Granny Liu had given Qin Shi some silver, they could finally take an oxcart to the city today.

Su Tao was also thinking of going to the market in the city today, and taking Qin Shi to Muxiangzhai to see Zhang Feng's shop where he does his work.

After the group arrived in the city, Su Banxia first accompanied Wei Kezhi to pawn his animal hides.

“I think your leather is of good quality. If you go to Wangyue Tower, you’ll definitely get a good price for it. I know the owner there.”

Su Banxia stroked Wei Kezhi's skin and nodded.

Wei Kezhi raised an eyebrow and glanced at Su Banxia.

"Oh? You're acquainted with the owner of Wangyue Tower? Then I'll go visit Wangyue Tower today."

As the two were talking, they arrived at the entrance of Wangyue Tower. Su Banxia had just stepped inside when she saw the servant at the gate turn and run towards the back courtyard. A moment later, Lou Wangyue emerged from the back courtyard.

"Miss Banxia, ​​you've arrived. Please come in quickly."

Upon seeing Lou Wangyue's luxurious attire and beautiful face, Wei Kezhi immediately became wary and stepped forward to block Su Banxia, ​​coldly saying:

"I am the one who has come to do business with you today."

Lou Wangyue smiled at Wei Kezhi, then peeked at Su Banxia standing behind Wei Kezhi and said softly:

"Miss Banxia, ​​is this your friend?"

Su Banxia pulled Wei Kezhi away and looked up at Lou Wangyue with a smile, saying:

"Yes, my friend came today to sell animal hides. I wonder if Young Master Lou still buys them?"

Lou Wangyue smiled and nodded at Su Banxia.

"As long as they are friends of Miss Banxia, ​​I welcome them all. Please come in."

Seeing the two of them chatting away, completely ignoring him, Wei Kezhi said in a deep voice:

“Young Master Lou, I am the one doing business with you. I am just selling a piece of leather, so there is no need to go to the backyard to talk. Let’s just look around here.”

As he spoke, Wei Kezhi placed the bundle in his hand on the table and opened it.

Lou Wangyue smiled at Su Banxia before looking down at the animal hide on the table.

"Hmm, it's a fine hide. I wonder how much silver this young master wants for it?"

"Three liang!"

Lou Wangyue frowned upon hearing Wei Kezhi's words, then unfolded the leather bag inside the bundle and examined it closely.

“Young master, I run this shop to do business, not a charity. Although you are Miss Banxia’s friend, your price is too high…”

Upon hearing this, Su Banxia tugged at Wei Kezhi's sleeve, smiled, and looked at Lou Wangyue, saying:

“Young Master Lou, we know you run a shop and do business. I brought my friend here to sell goods because I saw that your prices are fair. How about this, you name a price, and if it's reasonable, we won't bother with any more trouble.”

Lou Wangyue glanced at Su Banxia, ​​then at Wei Kezhi, whose face was dark, and suddenly laughed:

“Alright, since Miss Banxia has spoken, I will be more straightforward. I will offer two taels. You can go out and inquire about it. This price is already extremely high.”

Upon hearing this, Wei Kezhi felt a pang of embarrassment. His own hide was large, of good quality, and had been dried by him for a year; it was naturally worth two or three taels of silver.

Now, Lou Wangyue is actually pretending to give Su Banxia face by offering such a price. Wei Kezhi didn't waste any words and directly snatched the animal skin from Lou Wangyue's hand, folded it up, and wrapped it in a bundle.

"Banxia, ​​let's go, I'm not selling anymore."

After saying that, he took Su Banxia's arm and walked towards the door. Su Banxia was a little embarrassed by Wei Kezhi's actions, and quickly turned back to wave goodbye to Lou Wangyue.

"Young Master Lou, please don't mind him. My friend has a bad temper, but don't worry, I'll definitely come back to you to sell my things in the future."

Lou Wangyue smiled gently at Su Banxia and said:

"I know, Miss Banxia, ​​I'll wait for you."

Upon hearing this, Wei Kezhi abruptly turned Su Banxia's head and said unhappily:

"If you don't want to sell, then don't sell. Why are you arguing so much with a businessman like him?"

Su Banxia flung Wei Kezhi's hand away, rubbed her wrist, and said unhappily:

“What’s wrong with being a businessman? Now that you’re selling leather, aren’t you a businessman too? I’ll be doing business in Fuping County someday.”

Wei Kezhi looked at Su Banxia's face and sighed.

"You're not on the same wavelength as him. You'd better have less contact with him in the future, lest you get sold out and still be counting the money for him."

Su Banxia snorted unhappily.

"You, the underling, are lecturing me? Don't worry, I'm smarter than you. Besides, how could someone as good as Young Master Lou harm me!"

Wei Kezhi glanced at Su Banxia with displeasure and said in a huff:

"You're only nice to me because I'm good-looking. Let me tell you, not everyone who's good-looking is as nice to you as I am!"
