"One hundred taels of silver per dish." Su Yan was not a big talker, the Ren family could afford this amount of money.
What's more, the Ren family has the ability to sell these dishes for multiples of three hundred taels.
Mr. Ren nodded happily, "Okay."
"Your family promised to buy the book for me first. After buying it, I will go to your shop to teach." Su Yan was afraid that they would use the book as a cover and not admit to buying it when the time came.
"I will ask someone to buy the book right now. It will take about four or five days to buy it from the capital." Mr. Ren said.
"Okay." Su Yan nodded.
…
The Ren family was worried that Su Yan would regret it temporarily, so they spent a lot of money to have the book sent back quickly.
When Ren Li was sent to Qin's house, Su Yan was pulling weeds in the yard. She stood aside and said, "The book has arrived."
Hearing this, Su Yan dropped the weed in her hand, washed her hands before taking it and looking through it. Although she didn't know what the content was, she could tell at a glance that the book was difficult to buy.
Ren Li was still a little surprised, "Can you still read?"
"How else can we do business? How much money will it cost?" Su Yan carefully closed the book.
"My father-in-law said that he doesn't want your money and wants you to go to the shop tomorrow to teach the chef how to make soup." Ren Li said.
Su Yan said nothing more, "Prepare a small iron stove on each table. The soup must be warm to taste, otherwise it will be of no use."
"Okay, I'll go back and tell you." After seeing her promise, Ren Li didn't stay here any longer.
Su Yan took the books and placed them in Qin An's study. They were neatly stacked on top of the books. There were several sheets of rice paper on which she had practiced calligraphy, with her name neatly written on them.
She couldn't help but laugh, folded them up, and put them in a drawer. When she opened them, she saw several blank books inside.
He probably took all the work.
No wonder he had enough money to buy those candy cakes for her. Each one cost seven or eight cents, and he had to copy several pages to buy one.
Qin An came back half an hour earlier than before. Su Yan was a little surprised, "Why did he come back so early today?"
"The academy is going to hold a cultural banquet tomorrow, so we need to arrange it in advance."
Qin An put down his book bag, bent down and put his arms around her waist, lifted her up, and said happily: "Daughter-in-law, what are you doing at home today?"
Su Yan glanced at Zhang Xiu and Sister Cui in the yard, blushed slightly and said, "I didn't do anything. I just pulled the weeds at home today. The pepper seedlings have bloomed a lot."
Then he whispered: "Put me down."
Qin An came over for a kiss, then gently put her on the ground and said in a low voice: "I'm going to finish my homework. After I finish, I'll cook with you."
"Okay." Su Yan frowned.
study
Qin An's eyes fell on the new book at the edge. He was slightly startled. He reached for it and read a few pages. He pursed his lips and felt soft.
Just as he was about to get up and go out, Su Yan came in with warm tea and put it on the table. When he saw the book, she said directly: "I passed by the bookstore when I was going to the market and said that your academy wanted to buy this book, so I bought it."
"You can't buy this book in the county town." Qin An also asked about it himself, but he couldn't buy it at all.
Hearing this, Su Yan stretched out her hand to pinch the bridge of his nose and sighed, "You knew it wasn't easy to buy, but you didn't even tell me."
"When Master teaches me, I just memorize every sentence." Qin An is not afraid of people in the academy laughing at him, he would rather let them laugh.
I don't want my wife to worry about this matter.
If his wife knew that he wanted to buy a book, she would definitely find a way to ask people to buy it. As long as she could buy it, she would not be afraid of getting tired.
He just knew his wife's temperament so well that he didn't tell her.
