Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Eh, why are you back so early?” Madam Qian was very serious. She only reacted when she was a shadow at the door. She glanced at the teapot in his hand and said, “There’s no more tea? There’s hot water boiling on the stove in the kitchen. You can just use it.”

“Mother, where’s father?” Chu Xueqin put down the teapot and did not go to the kitchen. He walked straight to the dining table, poured a cup of tea, and took a sip as he asked.

“Your father is still weeding in the fields. He will probably be back in a while. What’s the matter?” Madam Qian replied. Her hands were not slow, and she assembled a Zhuge Lock in a few moves.

After assembling it, she would draw on it. If she did not have enough time, she would just casually paint the same picture. The progress was quite fast.

Chu Xueqin walked to the side and took a small stool to sit down. He did not forget to help with the assembly. Then, he said in a negotiating tone, “Mother, Sister-in-law Ye just said that she bought a lot of mountain pepper trees. She asked if the people in the clan wanted to buy them. If they wanted to buy them, they could go to the mountain. It’s 100 copper coins for one tree.”

“Second brother and I plan to buy ten.” Chu Xueqin was actually talking about a minimum amount. If Ye Muyu left too much, he planned to discuss it with his mother in private and buy more to prevent others from laughing at his sister-in-law for buying so many saplings.

When his Third Brother bought the saplings, he did not even say it in front of the clansmen.

Later, when the pepper tree and peach tree grew up and began to make money, it was only mentioned. Because of this, Chu Xing was still gossiped about.

“How many are there in total? You want to buy ten?” Madam Qian jumped in fright and muttered, “No wonder Mu Yu asked me to buy mountain pepper grains last time. So she wanted to plant this tree and see if the peppers could be eaten. ”

Speaking of eating mountain peppers, Madam Qin remembered and said, “Mother, brother, I remember now. Two days ago, I was in the village and heard from Aunt Lin that sister-in-law made a kind of new food. It seems to use mountain pepper. It’s called spicy fish fillet. I heard it smells very fragrant. Do you think it’s because of this food that sister-in-law suddenly wants to plant mountain pepper trees?”

“It’s really possible that you said that.” Madam Qian had no doubt about Ye Muyu and knew that this child was sensible. How could she be a person who spent money recklessly? She saw that Ye Muyu did not even buy jewelry or rouge powder when she had money. She was doing serious business to earn more money.

Besides, she instinctively liked Ye Muyu and naturally protected her in every way.

“Looks like Muyu really took it back to cook last time.”

“Then help your father buy ten stalks as well. I’ll go get some copper coins for you now.” Madam Qian patted her butt and stood up.

She quickly went back to his room to get the copper coins.

Madam Shen looked at her husband and thought of what Chu Xueqin had just said. She did not force him at all. She understood her husband very well and quickly figured out that her husband probably did not want the mountain pepper tree that her sister-in-law had painstakingly brought back to be wasted.

“Husband, how many saplings did sister-in-law buy? Should we buy more?” she asked gently.

Chu Xueqin looked at his wife with some relief. His voice softened. “I’ll go and see how much my sister-in-law has left. I wonder if the other clansmen will buy it.”

This meant that he had his own plans.

Seeing that Chu Xueqin understood what she meant, Madam Shen did not ask any more questions. She still had a warm smile on her face.

Madam Qin had a straightforward personality. She smiled lightly. “Eldest

Daughter-in-law, why are you two husband and wife still playing riddles? Xueqin, if there is any left, leave some for your Third Brother. Don’t let your Third Brother argue with you two brothers when he comes back at night..”
