Chapter 95: Afraid of Losing the Child, You Can't Wear
embers couldn't hold back anymore. They all looked at Ginger Wan's roasted chicken with covetous eyes, their eyes gleaming green."Sister-in-law, grandmother hasn't had any meat all day."Shen Qian, act..."What's going on"
Song Daniu's brow was creased with worry, her beauty marred by illness.
Song Jiuli frowned, her little face scrunched up as she met the curious gazes of the crowd. She explained in an exasperated tone.
Last night, the communal living quarters next door were burglarized. A family of three had their possessions stolen; it was their only food supply.
When it came to the later part, Song Jiuli's eyes were misty with water. After being exiled, she became more and more aware of the cruelty of this world.
I gradually came to understand that what is called "love" actually doesn't have any effect.
"What does the lord say"
Song's daughter frowned, let out a long sigh, and began to worry about the wild pork from their family.
Sometimes when there's nothing to worry about, you start worrying. Other times, you worry that someone will notice your worries.
"The magistrate probably doesn't want to get too involved in this matter, so he just warned everyone a few times."
Song Jiuli's words made Jiang Wan stunned. It seemed that Ren Bang had no time to care about these things, and he was probably still worried about the journey.
"How can this be"
Song Ji-che said anxiously, "If they don't care, the thief will become even more arrogant next time."
Ginger and Song Jiuyuan exchanged glances, both of them alert. They cast a glance at the people in the room who were eyeing them hungrily.
Ginger approached Song Jiu-yuan, leaning close to his side and whispering, "Song Jiu-yuan, what do you think"
"A kill to warn the monkeys!"
Song Jiu's voice wasn't loud, but there was a chill in his words, causing Jiang Wan to smile wryly.
"As I thought. However, I'd like to process the wild boar meat first, what do you think"
Her space was full of things and she didn't want to be constantly disturbed by the wild boar.
"You're the one who hunts wild boars, I don't mind."
Song Jiu's point is that he never interferes with her decisions. Ginger then turned to Song's wife and others.
Even if there were reluctance, no one would object because they know Jiang Wan definitely has her own considerations.
Then I'll go for a walk.
Jiang Wan didn't want to end up like Wen RuYu, doing good deeds but being blamed instead. Now, who wouldn't say Wen RuYu was insincere
When she left the big inn, she could still hear someone crying in the next room, probably the family of three who had been robbed.
As Jiang Wan entered the lobby, she could still faintly hear many people complaining.
"Then, can't Young Master Wen send us some more food"
"Alright, whether or not they give it is their business, we can't push too far."
"I don't want to be so harsh, but I'm hungry."
">”
Ginger was speechless, she twitched her lips and then looked up just as Wen Ruyu came down the stairs.
His expression stiffened, clearly having heard those complaints. Seeing Ginger Wan, he quickly suppressed the coldness in his eyes.
"Song girl."
Jiang Wan, who was still hesitating, suddenly had a bright look in her eyes. It really was as if sleep had come just when someone brought her a pillow! She rarely smiled at Wen Ruyulu.
"Master Wen, I have something I want to talk to you about."
"Sure."
Wen Ruyu controlled her facial expression with grace, looking at Jiang Wan's smile on her face, he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
It seems his charm remains undiminished. It appears Song Lady must have endured much hardship in secret before this.
This bit of thoughtfulness was completely shattered when Ginger said it out loud. He controlled the expression on his face that almost got out of hand.
"Song, you said you want to sell me the wild boar meat"
"Yeah."
Ginger blinked her innocent eyes, "I know you're a good person, but doing good deeds can't be half-hearted."
"Just so happens I have some wild boar meat on hand, selling it to you would be perfect, wouldn't it"
Wen Ru Yu: ...
He fought hard to control his almost twisted heart, forcing a smile onto his face.
You make a few good points, but…
"I don't think Mr. Wen is very keen on buying it."
Ginger sighed softly, "Well then, let's just leave it at that. Just the other day, Elder Chu was still asking me about wild boar."
In that case, selling to them is the same as selling to anyone else. Business dealings come first, and it's not a matter of morality. Young Master Wen doesn't need to feel guilty about anything.
Jiang Wan finished speaking and was about to go upstairs, Wen Ru Yu hurriedly said: "Wait a moment!"
Fearful that Ginger might really be gone, Wen Ruyu took a few steps to Ginger's face.
"Song's wife makes a good point, I'll buy this wild boar meat!"
This is a great opportunity for her, Wen RuYu doesn't want to miss it.
"Young Master Wen is so magnanimous."
Jiang Wan's eyebrows curved into a smile, "My pork is wild boar, smoked and cured as bacon. As for the price..."
"Don't worry, Madam Song, the price will not be lower than the market price."
Wen Ru Yu thought about the stolen Heifengzhai, feeling a twinge of pain, but she couldn't bear to let her child be harmed. She gritted her teeth and went all in!
"I've got about two hundred and fifty catties of meat here. Since Mr. Wen is so generous, name your price."
Jiang Wan narrowed her eyes. According to ancient prices, this amount of silver wasn't even worth a single Yu-ping noble in the Black Wind Village treasury.
So, when it's time to sell, she plans to secretly hide a hundred catties and put it in her space, then quietly take some out to eat later.
And 250, she really likes this number.
"Is this enough"
Wen Ru Yu took out fifty taels of silver from his sleeve. A blush crept onto his usually composed face, for he had never purchased groceries before and naturally had no idea about prices.
Ginger took the silver note from his hand and smiled, a smile that didn't reach her eyes. "That's enough. I'll deliver the meat later."
However, those people are complaining about you like this, I think you should slow down and cook for them again later.
Give hungry people some food, and they will be more grateful.
"Is that so"
Wen Ruyu raised an eyebrow, a hint of doubt in her eyes. Did she feel the same way
Of course.
Ginger confirmed with a tone of certainty, and after making a delivery time agreement with Wen Ruyu, she returned to the big shed.
Then, she would occasionally carry out some wild boar meat using her basket. Once she was outside the large common room, she would put it all into her spatial storage.
In the evening, Ginger came to a corner of the inn and, taking advantage of nobody being around, took out all the meat.
In a short while, Wen Ru Yu, the person who was gentle like jade, pulled the wild boar meat away.
Actually, she intentionally waited until the evening. This way, even if Wen Ru Yu changed her mind and wanted to eat meat, it would have to be tomorrow.
"Are you back"
When Song Jiubian saw Jiang Wan return, the worry in his heart finally eased, although Jiang Wan only returned to Datongpu after a long time.
But several trips in and out had caught the attention of others, but Jiang Wan pretended not to notice, taking out a large bowl of steamed meat from her knapsack.
"I went to the kitchen and ground the meat several times for them. I split it in half and gave it to them before they agreed to steam it for me. Now eat up!"
"Wow, sis-in-law, you're amazing."
Song Jiuli exaggeratedly covered her mouth, while Song's madam glared at her with displeasure.
"You can't stop eating, just keep going."
There were too many covetous gazes in the house, Song Jiuli and the others didn't dare to delay, they hurriedly ate all the meat.
Song Jiu-li took the initiative to wash the dishes. Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan exchanged a glance, both of their eyes twinkling with amusement.
After washing up tonight, they went to bed very early. It was still raining outside and there was no sign of it stopping. Ginger did not go into the space either.
She closed her eyes slightly, the bait was already down. Would the fish take the hookng about her youngest son, who had to carry his older brother on his back, Lady Song softened a bit. Song Ji-che wasn't like Jiu Li. Carrying Song Jiu-yuan every day was already a huge burden.It was o...
