Chapter 210: Selling Mushrooms
On the contrary to men, the women in the village both regretted Su Wanqiu's rejection of a good family like Mr. Lin, and admired her lofty ambitions. However... Men are married when they are old and women are married when they are old. The third girl is afraid that they will get married sooner or later. At that time, she will still fulfill her promise. Will she take care of the elderly, weak women and children in the village? Alas! She is really worried. She hopes that she can marry well, but she is afraid that she will get married. She has a good idea. The water she will splash from her married daughter.
Su Wanqiu was unaware of these disputes, and she didn't have time to pay attention to them, because there were several major events at home.
The first thing is mushrooms: Because the weather has not yet entered winter, the culture medium has enough nutrients. The unearthed mushrooms are growing rapidly. In a blink of an eye, the first batch of mushrooms is coming to the harvest season.
This time, Fang Mansion took the lead. He mentioned that Shu Yun came over before, and discussed the matter. He heard from Su Wanqiu that the first batch of mushrooms could produce about 1,000 kilograms. The guy's eyes were like wolves and he immediately patted his chest and said that they all wanted them.
Su Wanqiu naturally disagreed, saying that what do you want to do so much? You can’t finish it in two or three days. Can’t you have to run dry goods? That doesn’t require so much.
So Shu Yun shouted, saying that Prince Rong's Mansion and Duke's Mansion were not enough, and Prince Rong's Mansion had to send some to the palace. His young master also had relatives and friends everywhere to handle some of them. In short, it was just two words: all.
In the end, Su Wanqiu was determined and only 100 kilograms were left.
On the day when the mushrooms were produced, the Su family got up before dawn. Everyone tried their best to finish more than a thousand kilograms of mushrooms in just half a day.
At that time, the carriage in Fang's mansion had already stopped at the door. Fang Xuesong came here in person and accompanied Su Mingliang to have tea and chat in the east room. Although the face was calm and the wind was light, he was so anxious that several claws were scratching.
Finally, when Su Wanqiu entered the door, the noble young master couldn't help but lit his eyes: the third girl's hair after work was a little messy, her face was a little pale, and the patched old clothes were stained with dust. Compared to those exquisitely made-up daughters of the boudoir, this description can even be called a dusty face, but her eyes were so bright, and the smile on the corners of her mouth was even more beautiful than the sun. Looking at it, it made people couldn't help but appreciate and admire it from their hearts.
"I just weighed it and the total mushrooms produced were 1,160 kilograms. Mr. Fang looked at it. This was a plate I took casually. Most of them were so big, some were bigger than this, and some were smaller than this, but not many."
Fang Xuesong took the plate and plucked it casually. Seeing the thick mushrooms, he exclaimed: "The fragrance is as fragrant as the wild mushrooms, and it is even more plump and tender. The third girl just said that she produced 1,160 kilograms, right? This was a small surprise. I thought I could only take 900 kilograms. In this way, I could make up for it and take away 1,000 kilograms."
"Well……"
Su Wanqiu coughed: "Mr. Fang, you bought 900 kilograms of these mushrooms, which is already a lot. In addition to giving them to the Shen family, we also need to eat some of the remaining ones, and we also have to keep some for others, right?"
"Does the third girl want to give it to someone? Or do you want to give it to Yuanxi?" Fang Xuesong raised his eyebrows lightly: "I know that Yuanxi also has connections to manage. But I am just bluntly, his needs are far less than mine. Can the girl give me some of the considerate thoughts about Yuanxi?"
Su Wanqiu:...
Mr. Fang, do you know what you are talking about? What does my relationship with you? What does it mean to give you some consideration? How can you feel? You are not satisfied with 900 jin, and you are talking to me here and say such ambiguous words. What are the benefits of rumor and scandals with me? After all, it is also the young master of a big family. He doesn’t care about reputation like this? You are young and frivolous, so you can ignore your image?
Su Wanqiu was so angry that she felt very whispered in her heart. Even she noticed the meaning of this sentence, let alone the Yan family and Wang family. Although they were only in the main hall and did not enter the east room, they did not dare to talk, but their eyes were flying around for a moment, and those who were jealous of money like Su Yifeng almost danced with their hands.
Just as he was proud, he heard Su Wanqiu's "stern refusal" sound coming from the east room. Su Yifeng staggered and fell to the ground, leaning on his second brother's shoulder, grinning and silently scolding: "It's all you spoiled the third girl, how could you talk to Mr. Fang like this?"
Su Yishui glanced at him and whispered depressedly: "Okay, the third girl has her intentions. Young Master Fang has no objection. Why are you anxious here?"
Su Yishui was not good at speaking. This was the first time Su Yifeng saw his harsh appearance, and he was almost choked and rolled his eyes: "Forget it, you deserve to be poor."
After saying that, he waved to his daughter and whispered: "Your third sister talks to Mr. Fang, go and pour them tea."
Although Su Wandong was young, she was still fourteen years old. Although she didn't understand many things, she was also confused. She became alert in her heart and turned around and said, "The teapot is in the house. My third sister wants to drink tea, but she will pour it herself. What fun should I go to join in?"
"Hey! You lose money, you are just making your third sister indulge in it. You dare to be with me now..."
Su Yifeng glared at him, but saw that his daughter was not afraid at all. He raised his chin and whispered: "If you talk about me again, I will call my third sister to come and judge the matter."
"You..." Su Yifeng covered his chest: "I've turned against it, and the rules of this family have disappeared."
While beating his chest, he heard that Fang Xuesong and Su Wanqiu had already traded 900 kilograms of mushrooms and sold a total of 300 taels of silver on the east house.
Su Yifeng almost fainted happily. After finally waiting for Fang Xuesong to leave, the family gathered in the east room again. He asked with a look: "San Yatou, this mushroom... this mushroom is not okay with us, right? The greenhouse was built by us at least, and today the mushrooms were collected by us."
"I know."
Su Wanqiu nodded. This time, Fang Xuesong gave all five liang of silver ingots. She took out twenty of them and sent them to Su Mingliang: "Grandpa, this is the money that was distributed to the public."
"Ah? Uh... Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!"
Seeing that a penny was not in his pocket, Su Yifeng could only comfort himself in his heart: Forget it, it would be better to give it to Gongzhong, and food and drink will always be improved in the future.
Just as he was thinking, Su Mingliang smiled and said, "Three girls, I built a greenhouse and spent half a day on mushrooms, so I couldn't use so much."
Su Wanqiu smiled: Although grandpa is sometimes confused, he is finally shameless. To the feudal parents, this is rare.
"Materials are required to build a greenhouse. What's more, in order to redeem your elder sister a few days ago, the money from the public servants was almost spent. For such a family, you can't drink the northwest wind in one winter, right?"
After saying that, Su Mingjiang walked out and smiled and said, "This is the consideration and filial piety of the third girl. Please take it with me. Now you should rest assured about this child's character. As long as everyone works together and work hard with her, this family will definitely get better and better."
