The Valiant Farmgirl's Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug

Chapter 81 - 81 Chapter 81:Paid a Huge Price



81 Chapter 81:Paid a Huge Price

Boss Fang was experienced and knowledgeable, and he was also a man, so his knowledge was different from a woman’s.

As long as he could confirm that bamboo rats were different from rats, this deal would most likely be closed.

...

Boss Fang’s admiration for Qin Xiaoyao grew significantly when he saw that Qin Xiaoyao was able to guess his thoughts and yet still agree to the request without any hesitation.

“As for this bamboo shoot, it’ll be three copper coins per catty. If it’s convenient, from the day after tomorrow, you can just send 50 catties every day.”

“Yes! Thank you very much, Uncle Fang!” Qin Xiaoyao quickly thanked him.

50 catties was not a lot, but the unit price was high!

Fortune Mansion would only offer this kind of price for the mushrooms in the mountains.

However, bamboo shoots were much heavier than mushrooms.

Boss Fang stood up with a smile.

He then instructed his kitchen staff to weigh the goods.

After the staff settled the bill with Qin Xiaoyao smoothly, she then left the premises.

After they left Fortune Mansion, Big Girl Li looked at Qin Xiaoyao with admiration again.

She felt that she had once again learned something new this time.

“Alright, stop with the flattery.”

“I have to sell the bamboo rat skins and hand in the book at the Cirrus Loft Bookstore.”

“After that, I’ll have to go to the market at South Street to set up my stall to sell straw sandals. There’s a lot of things to do.”

“By the way, I’m going back to my family’s house today. I’ll be staying for lunch there.”

“After you’re done, you can leave first. Don’t wait for me.”

Big Girl Li knew that Qin Xiaoyao wanted to return the money to the Qin family, so she nodded.

“Okay!” she replied.

Qin Xiaoyao thought for a moment and reminded her, “After you go back, don’t be too anxious to go into the mountains in the afternoon. We’ll set off after I get back.”

“Alright!” Big Girl Li replied coquettishly.

Qin Xiaoyao almost had goosebumps.

“I’m leaving!” After saying that, Qin Xiaoyao pushed the handcart and left.

Then, she peddled straw sandals as she walked toward Wang’s Grocery Store.

At the grocery store, Shopkeeper Wang took a look at the bamboo rat skins, and true enough, he was interested.

“The material and quality of this skin are pretty good, but it’s a pity it’s a little small.”

“How about this? I’ll give you three copper coins for one piece?”

If a small piece of skin could be sold for three copper coins, the price was not really low.

After dealing with him several times, Qin Xiaoyao knew that Shopkeeper Wang was honest and quickly agreed.

She then sold all the bamboo rat skins she had brought to Shopkeeper Wang.

In addition, she also sold five pairs of straw sandals.

After that, Qin Xiaoyao went to the Cirrus Loft Bookstore.

After handing in Song Que’s work, buying paper, and securing a new job, she left.

By the time Qin Xiaoyao set up a stall in the market on South Street and sold out all the straw sandals she brought, the market had already dispersed when she returned to the market on West Street.

Fortunately, her father had not left yet. He was cleaning up the stall with her brother.

When they saw Qin Xiaoyao appear, the father and son’s faces lit up.

“Why did you come so late? That girl, Big Girl Li, said you want to go home, so we’ve been waiting for you here for a long time.” Qin Dazhuang shouted out to Qin Xiaoyao.

“Yeah, she didn’t say you would come directly! It’s the big market fair today. If you put your straw sandals for sale in the market on West Street, they might sell even faster!” Qin Dahu added.

Qin Xiaoyao put down the handcart with a smile.

“Dad and Uncle Li are here. Wouldn’t I be stealing their business?”

“Besides, I’m used to setting up a stall in the market on South Street. The uncle selling buns next to me has promised to reserve a place for me the next day!”

It was true, but she also patronized the uncle’s stall often. In addition, she also gave him two pairs of straw sandals.

“Gosh, you…” Qin Dahu glared at Qin Xiaoyao. He knew he couldn’t win against his younger sister, so he didn’t continue.

“Let’s go. If you have anything to say, we can talk at home!” Qin Dazhuang said.

Then, he added, “I’ve already asked someone to send a message back in advance. I asked your aunt and sister-in-law to cook together!”

Qin Xiaoyao was surprised.

She was a little worried about the upcoming lunch.

After all, whether it was Madam Zhang or her two sisters-in-law, they all had a bad impression of her.

She forced herself to smile.

“Oh, okay!” Qin Xiaoyao replied and prepared to push the handcart to follow.

However, Qin Dahu got to the handcart before her.

“I’ll push!”

Knowing there was no way she could snatch it back, Qin Xiaoyao relented.

She walked towards the Qin family with her father and brother.

Along the way, the father and son talked a lot, asking about Qin Xiaoyao’s family and Song Que’s situation.

They were all words of concern.

Qin Xiaoyao responded to each and every one of them, feeling a warm sensation in her heart.

They finally arrived at the Qin family’s house.

Just as they entered the courtyard, Qin Erhu emerged from inside.

“Little Sister!” The first person he called out was Qin Xiaoyao.

Only then did he greet his father and big brother.

“Why did you guys come back so late? Aunt and the others have already gotten the food ready for quite some time!”

Qin Xiaoyao smiled. Just as she was about to answer, a voice rang out from the hall.

“She’s making people wait for her just to eat. She’s really a spoiled young lady!” It was Madam Zhang.

The moment she finished speaking, Madam Zhang walked through the door of the hall.

Only then did Qin Xiaoyao realize that Madam Zhang’s clothes were loose, and her lower abdomen was slightly bulging. She was much rounder than before.

Upon seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao’s furrowed brows finally relaxed.

Then, under Qin Dazhuang’s worried gaze, she smiled faintly.

“It’s Sanya’s fault for making Madam Zhang wait. Aunt and sisters-in-law have worked hard to prepare the food. Sanya hereby thanks you!”

Everyone in the courtyard was caught off guard by her words.

Madam Zhang’s expression immediately froze. The two Qin family’s daughters-in-law, who came out later, also looked at their little sister-in-law in shock.

Was… this really their mean and overbearing little sister-in-law?

With her temper, shouldn’t she have immediately scolded and quarreled with Madam Zhang after hearing her sarcastic words?

They were all ready to watch the show, but she actually… didn’t kick up a fuss?

Not only did she not kick up a fuss, but she even thanked them?

“Alright, who are you mocking? It’s rare for Sanya to come back, so don’t look for trouble!” Qin Dazhuang quickly recovered from his shock and immediately reprimanded Madam Zhang.

His daughter had indeed become more sensible than before.

As such, he could not let his daughter be bullied.

As soon as Qin Dazhuang said this, Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu immediately looked at Madam Zhang with displeasure.

Then, they gave their respective wives a look of warning.

The three women were furious, but they knew that they had lost the upper hand. They could only turn around and enter the house.

“Don’t hold it against your aunt. She…” Qin Dazhuang pushed out his aged face as he leaned closer to his daughter. He wanted to comfort his daughter and, at the same time, speak up for his wife.

Before he could finish his sentence, Qin Xiaoyao smiled at him.

“It’s okay. Madam Zhang had a misunderstanding with me before. It’ll be fine once the misunderstanding is cleared up.”

Qin Dazhuang was stunned.

His aged face immediately broke into a smile.

“Yes, that’s the right spirit! Come, let’s go in and eat!” Then, he pulled Qin Xiaoyao and walked toward the hall.

However, Qin Xiaoyao stopped him.

“I haven’t taken my stuff!” she said.

“Oh…” Qin Dazhuang suddenly remembered that his daughter had bought something for his family.

Just as he was about to turn around and get it from the handcart, he heard his eldest son say, “I’ll go get it!”

Without turning around again, Qin Dazhuang said, “Let your Big Brother take it!” He then pulled Qin Xiaoyao and continued walking forward.

Qin Erhu looked at the back of his father and his sister and then at his big brother.

Seeing that his big brother had actually unloaded a lot of things, he quickly went over to help.

As he helped carry the things, Qin Erhu sighed in his heart.

His little sister had really paid a huge price for her return!
