A long sigh stopped Ning Erlang from asking more questions. Then, she stopped and said, “Brother, can you not tell parents about I sold the recipe and earned the two taels of silver today?”
Because it was a recipe without any technical content, and Xiaoxiao said the dishes were free. Shopkeeper Xu had originally wanted to give them one tael of silver for each dish. However, this was enough to shock Ning Erlang. When he heard that his sister wanted to hide such a large sum of money, Ning Erlang, who had never hidden his private savings, hesitated. “Why?”
Xiaoxiao lowered her head and looked unhappy. “I don’t want the money that 1 worked so hard to earn to end up in the pockets of those people in the old residence.”
Ning Erlang suddenly remembered his old hatred. At this moment, Ning Dalang had already patted Xiaoxiao’s shoulder. “1 won’t say anything. You can keep this money. Other than us, no one else knows.”
Xiaoxiao looked up at him with a burning gaze. “Really?”
Her gaze made Ning Erlang feel sorry. He was a little slower, but his eldest brother beat him to it again. He quickly said, “Yeah. We won’t say anything. You earned this silver with your abilities. It should belong to you.”
Xiaoxiao retracted her aggrieved expression in satisfaction.
Of course, she could not give money to her parents. If it was her mom, it was fine, but with her dad’s personality, tsk.
Ning Fengnian had just sent away his brother, who was said to have come to visit him despite his busy schedule.
His brother was now doing short-term work under his name. He could earn 500 copper coins a month but could not help with family matters. Just as it was about to plant seedlings in the fields, Second Sister-in-law showed signs of pregnancy. Third Brother’s studies were important, and Little Sister was preparing to discuss marriage. It was not good to tan. He could not let his parents work hard at their age…
However, looking at his family’s situation, he did not volunteer to agree.
No matter how hard he had worked in the past, the coldness of his parents and brothers while he was bedridden had chilled his heart. Now, his family was still in such a deficient state. His wife and children were so busy every day. How could he be at ease to work for the old residence?
Second Uncle Ning did not get the desired result despite his hard work. His expression was extremely dark. When he saw his nephew and niece pushing the cart back, he approached them like a wolf, seeing a sheep. “Are you back from the county? I heard that you went to sell bamboo shoots. How much did you get?”
How gossipy. Xiaoxiao, who had been ignored, rolled her eyes and hugged the sauerkraut jar with the lid outside the new bowl as she walked to the kitchen. “Second Uncle, didn’t you see? It wasn’t even sold, and we brought it back.”
Second Uncle Ning frowned and looked at Xiaoxiao with disdain. He then asked his nephew, “I heard from your dad that the sour bamboo shoots are selling well. Why? Are you going to keep this a secret from me?”
Knowing that his brother was impulsive, Dalang said, “It was not bad yesterday, but after today’s novelty, we only sold a little.”
Ning Erlang shook the empty bag cooperatively and said, “It’s not even enough for Dad’s medical fees.”
Second Uncle Ning was afraid they would borrow money, so he left immediately. Ning Erlang spat on the ground.
Ning Dalang frowned. Erlang was afraid of being scolded. Unexpectedly, his eldest brother said, “Next time, wait until he’s far away before spitting.”
Big Brother had changed! But he liked it.
With this interlude, the two brothers even more supported their sister’s plan to hide her true income. They even made inferences without a teacher and lowered the restaurant’s price and sour bamboo shoots to 180 copper coins per jar.
Ning Fengnian and his wife didn’t doubt him at all. They were even amazed that they were going to earn so much money. Only then did Ning Erlang feel that he hadn’t performed well enough. If he had known earlier, he would have said 150..
