“Oh, you applied medicine, huh?” Su Qingyue answered honestly.
“When you were with the Zhu Family, the Old Lady of Zhu family took you to the doctor to treat your facial sore and applied medicine, but it didn’t heal. Does medicine help?” Wang Qigu mocked, “Or is it just a waste of money?”
Su Qingyue couldn’t be bothered to argue, Wang Cuihua was also frightened by her face. Taking a closer look, it was just medicine applied on the pus sores, “Qingyue, is your face okay?”
She shook her head, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. It’ll heal after some time.”
“It can really heal?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, that’s good.” Wang Cuihua was reassured.
Su Qingyue took out the broken silver coins she had prepared before, and handed them to Wang Cuihua in a basket,”This is the one and a half taels of silver I owe your family. I wanted to return it to your family yesterday, but I’ve been so tired these few days. I have been busy from dawn to dusk, completely exhausted, falling asleep as soon as I lay down. Just when I was thinking of sending back the cotton wadding and seasonings I bought, I ran into you. Take the money first.”
Wang Cuihua quickly waved her hand, “It’s fine to owe it for a while; no rush.”
Before, Wang Cuihua had tried various ways to make her pay back. However, Qingyue also understood people’s situations, “It’s my debt, so of course, I should repay.”
After Wang Cuihua accepted it, she touched the pocket on her body, “You owed a total of one and a half taels. You have already paid back 100 cents, so I need to find you 100 cents. I didn’t bring any money with me, I’ll get it for you when I go home…”
“No need, use those 100 cents to buy something delicious for your son Fuwa.”
“How can that be…”
“Why not?” Su Qingyue said sincerely, “Your husband is good buddies with Yuchuan, as an aunt, it’s my duty to buy something for Fuwa. Don’t refuse it; don’t be a stranger.”
“Thank you so much.” Wang Cuihua was quite moved by her words.
“It’s nothing.” Qingyue waved her hand.
“Heh yeah! The wife of the Xiao Family is so generous; no wonder she’s really making money!” A villager was very jealous, “Only after a few days, she can pay back one and a half taels…”
“She might have earned four or five taels these few days…”
“She’s so good at making money!” The villagers on the scene were particularly envious.
Wang Cuihua pinched the one and a half taels of silver that Qingyue had repaid, and regretted in her heart that she had mistakenly listened to her grandmother’s words before. Fearful that Qingyue couldn’t pay back the money, she had repeatedly pressured her. But given her family Fuquan’s relationship with Chuan and the help, she received from the Xiao family, she might have even asked for the fried fern recipe. However, the matter of her grandmother forcing her to pay back the money created a hurdle, making her family too ashamed to even ask for the recipe from the Xiao family.
Qian Zhang, who was famously stingy in the village, looked at Su Qingyue and came over. She gazed at the ten bales of cotton wadding on the cow’s car, “Such white cotton … it must be expensive…”
She reached out and touched it, “It’s so warm … in winter, it’ll be so comfortable … this cotton must be a premium item, at least more than one tael per bale, right?”
“The cotton is good, but it’s combined with the padding and cover wadding, which is just over one tael per bale,” Su Qingyue nodded.
“So, just the cotton wadding alone would be worth five to six taels …” The guys gathered around the cow’s car, discussing it with their many mouths, “And there’re so many seasonings, soy sauce, Sichuan peppercorns …”
“Su Qingyue, how much money have you made in the past few days?” Qian Zhang was so jealous her eyes turned red.
Su Qingyue just smiled and didn’t answer.
“Tell us the recipe, and I’ll give you 300 cents …”
“I’ll give 400 cents …”
Everyone asked her for the recipe again, and several people were discussing it. “The wife of the Xiao Family, let’s all share in the wealth.”
