Chapter Fifty Twenty-eight Girls

Mingheng saw Qiao Mingjin staring at the empty basket and said, "Sister, the eggs are very easy to sell. They were all sold out as soon as they were put out. But now many people have learned how to use straw to make baskets."

, string the eggs and sell them.”

Qiao Mingjin smiled and said, "It's okay. It's not something rare and difficult to learn. Others can learn it after just reading it once. Besides, we don't make money from it, it's just to prevent people from getting bumpy on the road. If others learn it, they will learn it."

.It will not affect our business."

Mingheng nodded after hearing this and started selling pheasants with his sister.

After a while, several people came. After asking about the price, two people bought four pheasants. Without weighing them, they weighed them with their hands and estimated them at three kilograms, and got 180 cents.

There were four left in the basket.

The siblings are no longer in a hurry. Even if these four cannot be sold, they can go to Yunjia Village to feed or keep them to their parents.

At the market, merchants who had sold out their goods were picking up empty baskets and leaving one after another. Some of them were familiar with Qiao Mingjin and others, and even said hello to them and said goodbye.

Several people waited for a while, and then another middle-aged man came. The man was very happy and wrapped up all four pheasants.

Qiao Mingjin didn't weigh it either, and there was no one to borrow one at this time. He still estimated the weight at three pounds each, and still charged 180 cash.

Today I got a total of six taels of silver from selling pheasants, plus the 4 taels of silver from selling vegetables, and the 300 taels of silver from Yu Ji. I got the most money this day.

Qiao Mingjin didn't hide it from the children. The three children were very happy after hearing this and jumped all the way to the noodle stall from last time.

He also kept saying loudly that he wanted meat noodles or not noodles...

Qiao Mingjin followed behind with an empty basket and was extremely sad to hear this.

In the minds of some children, perhaps having a bowl of meat noodles is already an extremely luxurious thing.

"Boss, we want noodles. We want five bowls! All of them want meat noodles!" Ming Qi and Ming Heng shouted.

"Okay! Come right away."

The boss responded loudly and kept kneading the dough...

At the same time, Yue Zhongyao walked around the market and didn't find Qiao Mingjin, feeling anxious.

There were a lot of things going on in the Yamen today, so he had to take some time off until now. I wonder if Jin Niang has gone back?

Although he would take a bath in two or three days and go back to see his mother and daughter, he still hoped to see his wife at the party, even if she had never looked directly at him.

Just let him see her.

Yue Zhongyao asked around and learned that they were heading to West Street, so he hurried over. Someone also told him that there were several people and a child.

Is it Wan'er? Is your daughter here too?

Yue Zhongyao felt a hint of joy in his heart, and the wind was blowing under his feet. He had not held his daughter even a few times in the past few years.

"Jinniang! Wan'er!" Yue Zhongyao called out from the door of the noodle shop.

The words contained the surprise of first meeting.

Qiao Mingjin was stunned for a moment, but did not raise her head to look at Yue Zhongyao. She still kept her head buried in picking up noodles with chopsticks to feed her daughter.

"Mingyu and Mingqi are here too? When did Mingyu arrive in Xiahe Village?" Yue Zhongyao looked at Mingyu and asked.

Mingyu glanced at her sister secretly and replied in a low voice: "I went there yesterday when my brother and cousin sent me the bed."

Send the bed over?

Yue Zhongyao felt a little upset after hearing this. The bed where his wife and daughter slept was a concern to outsiders.

Yue Zhongyao was silent. After a while, he rubbed Xiao Wan'er's hair and asked, "Wan'er doesn't call her daddy? Don't you remember daddy?"

Xiao Wan'er pursed her lips and glanced at her father, then quietly turned her eyes away from her mother, then looked towards her uncle and aunt, her big eyes blinking, not knowing whether to call this father or not.

Qiao Mingjin picked up a handful of noodles and put it on a spoon to feed to her daughter. Xiao Wan'er then turned to eat. Her face was no longer confused and she happily ate the noodles.

The noodles are so delicious and the soup is delicious. Xiao Wan'er's cheeks are bulging after eating them.

Yue Zhongyao's face darkened.

He glanced at Qiao Mingjin and sat silently next to Wan'er, staring at her daughter. He looked at Qiao Mingjin and said, "Eat quickly, your face is getting lumpy. I'll feed Wan'er."

As he spoke, he moved his hands. Qiao Mingjin glanced at him and let him go.

Seeing that her mother had no objection, Wan'er cautiously raised her head and glanced at her father. After receiving a smile from her father, she sucked the noodles from her father's hand.

The little thing sucked the noodles and made a loud slurping sound. The little thing squirmed and swallowed the noodles bit by bit. Yue Zhongyao was happy and sour at the same time.

His daughter regarded the ordinary noodles as a rare delicacy and ate them with a face of satisfaction.

Yue Zhongyao glanced at Qiao Mingjin again with complicated emotions, then lowered his head and concentrated on feeding his daughter.

Seeing his daughter happily eating from his hands, Yue Zhongyao's mood gradually improved.

His daughter looks a bit like him...

Mingyu and Mingqi were a little cautious at first, but then they gradually relaxed. This kind of noodles is not something you can eat every day.

Qiao Mingjin looked at Yue Zhongyao who was carefully picking noodles to feed his daughter. He thought about it and asked, "Have you eaten yet? Do you want to order a bowl for you?"

After hearing this, Yue Zhongyao looked over with surprise. When he saw Qiao Mingjin lowering her head again, his face darkened. He said, "No, I'll eat later when I go back to the Yamen."

When everyone had almost finished eating, they heard a voice at the door shouting with some surprise: "Brother Yue! So you are here? I went to the Yamen to look for you. They said you just went out."

The soft and soft voice made even Qiao Mingjin couldn't help but look over.

Standing at the door of the noodle shop was a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a pink undershirt with a bright face. Standing in the sunshine, with a smile on her face, holding a food box in her hand, looking at Yue Zhongyao with very focused eyes

.

Yue Zhongyao glanced at Qiao Mingjin nervously and found that Qiao Mingjin was not looking at him. While he breathed a sigh of relief, there was something stuck in his heart.

"How did you find this place?" Yue Zhongyao asked.

"I made some food for you, and I wanted to take it to the Yamen for you. They said you had gone out, so I thought you must be on the street, so I looked for you. I didn't expect that I actually found you.

"The woman looked happy.

"Who are these?" the woman looked at Qiao Mingjin and asked, looking at them wildly.

Qiao Mingjin frowned.

"Have you eaten yet?" Qiao Mingjin asked, looking at her younger siblings.

There was no soup left in the bowls in front of the children. The farm boy was unhappy and left something behind, which was considered extremely wasteful behavior.

"It's ready." Mingheng and others nodded.

Qiao Mingjin hugged Wan'er and went down to the ground. "How much does it cost, boss?" She took out her wallet and wanted to pay.

"Twenty-five articles."

"Jin Niang, let me pay." Yue Zhongyao said and took out the money first.

Qiao Mingjin didn't look at him either. He counted twenty-five cents and put them on the table.

"Little lady, the money has already been paid," the boss said.

"This is our face." After Qiao Mingjin said this, she took her daughter and several younger siblings and walked out.

Yue Zhongyao looked at the twenty-five copper coins on the table and was stunned. After a long time, he grabbed the money and rushed out.

"Brother Yue?" the woman called and followed.

Thanks to "hies" for the peace charm, and "Haiyan 123" for the sachet and review votes. Thank you very much for your strong support.
