Chapter 11: Your wife left alone

"It's okay. I'll pack it up soon. You can sit outside for a while."

Su Yan was quick with her hands and feet, and she cleaned up the house in a short time, wiping it inside and out twice.

After cleaning up, she was sweating all over. When she left, she bent down to take the brazier out. It had been burning for too long and the edges were burnt.

Immediately she hissed, and Qin An, who was making something at the door, immediately stood up and came in. When he saw her looking at her fingers, he looked over, and his fingers turned red under the firelight.

He turned around and went to the kitchen to fetch some water, put it on the stool, and said, "Soak it."

Su Yan soaked in the water, and the burning sensation subsided a little. Qin An stood beside her, pursed her lips, and said, "Shout out for something like this from now on."

Su Yan raised her head and looked over. Under the firelight, the man's face was dim and unclear, and his red and phoenix eyes were particularly obvious.

He's really handsome.

Not the modern stereotype of handsome and fair handsome, but handsome handsome.

The skin is a little rough, but it doesn't affect his face at all.

"good."

Qin An naturally noticed her eyes and tilted his head unnaturally. Then he went to the kitchen to get a wet handkerchief and took the brazier out later.

Su Yan soaked for a while, then went out with water, and then brought the water into the house to wipe it.

After a busy day, she fell asleep quickly. When she got up the next day, there were a few more logs in the yard. It was obvious that Qin An had gone to the mountain.

Qin An also made breakfast, but it was relatively simple, the kind that only filled the stomach, with only oil and salt.

Su Yan didn't say anything, just lowered her head and ate. It was already past time after the two of them finished eating, so they packed up and headed to town.

When we arrived in the town, there were no stalls left, so we had to squeeze into the corner. The man next to us was very unhappy, "Go away, don't set up here! Don't blame me for dumping you."

Probably because he saw Su Yan, a woman, doing it, he didn't pay much attention to Qin An, who was standing looking at the position.

Hearing the sound, Qin An looked over, then bent down and started to make the backpack, "I'll do it."

Su Yan looked at the man next door and suddenly seemed dumb. She said "tsk tsk" twice in her heart. Sure enough, he bullied the weak and was afraid of the strong.

Then she looked at the crowd in front of her and said hello: "Come and take a look at the living wild boar cubs. Take them home and raise them for the New Year. You can also eat wild boar meat."

As soon as she greeted her like this, many people gathered around her.

"It's really a live wild boar cub."

"Why does it look like you are dying?"

Su Yan quickly explained: "The sun is too hot. I'm on my way. I'll be fine later. The ones I hunted yesterday are sow cubs. If we breed them, they can still give birth."

The old man in gray clothes was a little moved, "How much silver do you have per pound?"

Hearing this, Su Yan looked at Qin An, who said in a low voice: "Twenty coins per catty."

Wild boar meat usually costs more than ten yuan per pound. The main reason is that live piglets are valuable, and feeding them some pigweed can also make them fatter.

The price of domestic piglets is thirty cents per catty.

The uncle felt that the price was quite cheap and said hurriedly: "Then I want it. I didn't bring so much money. My home is in the south of the town. You can go get it with me and help me send it back."

Qin An glanced at Su Yan and hesitated, but Su Yan responded directly, "Brother Qin, go ahead. I'll guard the stall here."

Of course there was business to do. Qin An said "hmm", then picked up the wild boar and followed the uncle.

When the man next to him saw that the woman's "husband-in-law" was gone, he immediately pulled some stalls over.

Su Yan was too lazy to meet him, and there was only a can of cold chicken cubes left and right. She shouted for a while, but some women just wanted to eat for free.

She stopped shouting and glanced around, finally her eyes fell on the food shop. After thinking about it for a moment, she packed up everything and went to the food shop.

The waiter thought she was here for dinner, so he greeted her warmly, "Please, sir, would you like to try our store's new signature dish?"

Su Yan waved her hand, then walked over to the counter, smiled and asked the person who was settling the accounts, "Are you the shopkeeper?"

Shopkeeper Li looked up at her, his eyes lit up, and his attitude was quite good, "Yes, what can I do, little lady?"

"I made something to eat. Shopkeeper, please try it. If it doesn't taste good, don't give me any money."

Su Yan took out the cold spicy chicken in a bamboo tube. The shopkeeper came over and took a look. It smelled good, so he went to get a pair of chopsticks.

He was a little surprised after tasting it, "It's pretty good, suitable for drinking."

"How?"

"Just thinking about it."

Su Yan glanced at him, then thought of something and said, "If the shopkeeper thinks it's okay, I'll put this on the guest's table later and see how the guest reacts."

"If the response is good, I will sell the recipe to you, how about it?"

Shopkeeper Li thought it was okay. It wouldn't cost any money to give it a try. "Okay, come over after noon and I'll get back to you."

"Thank you, shopkeeper, and I wish you a prosperous business."

"You little lady is quite good at talking."

Su Yan smiled, then said a few words and left with the basket. From a distance, she saw Qin An grabbing the collar of the man next door.

She ran over quickly, "Brother Qin, what's wrong?"

As soon as Qin An saw her, his expression softened and he let go of the man. The man cursed and said, "You are unreasonable. I already told you that your wife left on her own." After that, he even got aggrieved.

.

The corner of Su Yan's mouth twitched and she explained in a low voice to Qin An: "I saw you didn't come back, so I went to the food shop to see if they wanted to eat?"

Qin An pursed his lips and said to the man, "I'm sorry."

The man's mouth twitched, but he didn't dare to argue with him. If the fight started, he wouldn't be able to get away with it.

If it weren't for the fear of causing trouble by laughing, Su Yan would almost laugh. It was a bit unkind, but she would not sympathize with him.

If it weren't for Qin An, this person might have bullied her.

"Brother Qin, I will give the food to the food shop to taste. If it works, I will sell the recipe to them. If it doesn't work, I will give you the money for the chicken."

"No, just forget it if you can't sell it."

Qin An looked at her and paused for a moment, then said: "Don't wander around in the future, the town is no better than the village."

Knowing that he meant well, Su Yan nodded, "Then let's go shopping now, soap stock, needlework, and I'll buy a pair of replacement shoes."

Clothes can be worn at will. If there is no money now, save what you can.

Qin An didn't say anything and just said "hmm". He probably didn't know how to buy these things. After Su Yan bought them, he counted the copper coins and paid.

Su Yan didn't ask him to pay for the shoes. She picked the cheapest pair of shoes, which cost eighteen cents a pair.

The female owner probably wanted her to buy more. While packing her shoes, she said, "We have some red bellybands. Do you want to buy one?" After that, he winked at her.

She probably thought Qin An was her husband-in-law, so she didn't avoid saying this.

Su Yan was not embarrassed, but Qin An was a little uncomfortable. He turned around and strode out, waiting at the door.

The hostess took one look at it and said cheerfully: "You just got married to your husband-in-law? This is too embarrassing. Sister, buy one, and you and your husband-in-law will have a fat boy as soon as possible."
