The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 538
Chapter 538: 538 The truth comes to light 5
Dashan, your family has certainly struck it rich!” Ding Er envied and was jealous, as were the other villagers at the side.
Xiao Yishan was also startled beyond belief, he just limped along with his strange cane, walking back home with his head down.
“Let’s go, to the Xiao family to see the horse carriage…” Ding Er led the way, several villagers followed and they was headed to the Xiao family residence.
Just as Su Qingyue guided the carriage into the yard, there came Xiao Yuchuan’s excited male voice, “wife, you’re back!”
She got off the carriage, tied the reins of the horse to a stake on the courtyard fence.
Xiao Yuchuan looked curiously at the carriage in the courtyard from the open window of the master bedroom and said, “Wife, how did you learn to drive the carriage? Did you rent the carriage? ” He hadn’t even thought about it, the carriage was so expensive that it must be rented.
“Bought it for twenty-four taels of silver.” Su Qingyue said.
“Twenty-four taels?” Xiao Yuchuan was taken aback, “Even selling me wouldn’t fetch that much money!”
“Indeed, I was only sold for sixteen taels of silver.” Su Qingyue took the wheelchair down from the flatbed cart as she spoke, then helped Xiao Qinghe onto the wheelchair.
Xiao Yuchuan’s brain went blank for a moment, “wife, did you really say that it’s our family who bought the carriage?”
“Of course! The carriage is so expensive, which family would be willing to rent it to you.” said Aunt Zhang who just entered the yard, “Chuan, the Xiao family has struck it rich this time. Your wife sold the recipe for the pig offal for three hundred taels of silver!”
“Really?” Xiao Yuchuan, who was helping his wife sew new clothes, was so astonished that the needle dropped onto the bed.
“Yes.” Aunt Zhang said, “your fourth brother said so, there can be no doubt.”
Ding Er and ten or twenty villagers walked into the yard of the Xiao family one after another.
As people gathered, the originally spacious yard began to get crowded.
Everyone was there to see the horse carriage of the Xiao family, as well as the wheelchair of Xiao Qinghe.
Even Zhu Nengwen, the second son of the Zhu family, couldn’t help but come to join the crowd.
Zhu Nengwen looked at the carriage in the yard, then at the wheelchair that Xiao Qinghe was sitting in, it was nakedly expensive, costing twenty-nine taels to buy!
As for Su Qingyue…
Her face was still scary as ever, but her body…no matter how he looked, she seemed curvaceous and made people want to touch.
And her skin was as white as snow…
How did she change so much…
Do not mention just knowing about Su Qingyue selling the pig offal recipe for three hundred taels, just looking at the visible twenty-nine taels, he was also scratching his heart out of regret.
Zhu Nengwen thought, Su Qingyue was originally bought by his family, but blamed his mom, who said that Su Qingyue was useless to keep, skinny and bony definitely can’t bear children, keeping her was a waste feeding her and drinking.
At that time, he even said not to sell Su Qingyue, to keep her as a lowly maid.
Seeing Zhu Nengwen’s black face, Ding Er couldn’t help but gloat, “Zhu family’s second son, your family is truly blind not to recognize jade! If Su Qingyue hadn’t been sold, the three hundred taels she earned would have been in your pocket. Oh my, she made fifty taels a few days ago. She’s earning money every day. I guess she might have earned about 400 taels by now. Your family really suffers a bloody loss…”
“None of your business!” Listening to it, Zhu Nengwen felt like his heart was being gouged. With 400 taels, how many people can’t earn it in their lifetimes!
His mom was really badass, she actually insisted on selling Su Qingyue.
“I don’t mind.” Ding Er clapped his hands on the side, “Haha, I am laughing, looking at how you Zhu family sold Su Qingyue for only sixteen taels, the Zhu family deserves not to get rich. The wealth should belong to the Xiao family.”
