Chapter 401: Greedy

As for the sheep raised in these villages that had already eaten the white deer grass, Xia Mingyue and Manager Fu asked He Shunzi to pass on the message, saying that they would wait for another two months before purchasing those sheep that would be completely safe by then.

When people from several villages heard that the sheep would be sold in the future, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"At least it didn't fall on my hand, so I can thank God for that."

"Of course I have. I have raised this sheep for more than half a year. If I cannot sell it in the future, it will be a waste. Fortunately, they are willing to buy it."

"The owner of Yipin Hotpot is quite nice. Next time He Shunzi comes, we must ask him to bring back some words of thanks."

"It seems insincere to just say thank you verbally. I think we should lower the price of the sheep we want to sell by a few cents per pound. That way, we will show that we are not the kind of people who don't know how to be grateful."

"I think it's fine, let's do it!"

A bunch of people were talking about this matter and soon reached a consensus, but some people disagreed with it and even sneered at it.

"You guys just had a few full meals, and you just saved up some money, but you don't know what to do with it? We raised sheep with great difficulty, why should we give them to others at a lower price?"

"That's right. We were deceived into buying this grass to feed the sheep. Who could have known that this stuff is bad? The sheep that could have been slaughtered have to wait for two months. Whose grass is this? And whose grass is this if the sheep become thin during this period?"

"We were harmed by others. It's fine if no one compensates us for our losses, but do we still have to think about others? Yipin Guo's business is so big, it must make a lot of money. Is it worth it for us to think about them?"

"A bunch of peasants are worrying about people wearing silk and satin. Aren't you cheap?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the others looked at each other in surprise.

After looking at each other, everyone decided not to gather together to continue discussing the matter. Instead, they all walked home, completely ignoring those people who were now full of indignation and chattering.

What is there to care about?

You can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep!
He already had that idea, and no matter how he talked, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to convince them.

He only thought about how he was implicated, and didn't consider that if he wasn't thinking about making the sheep grow more meat and selling it for more money, why would he buy these things despite what Pei Youguang said before?

In the final analysis, it was just because I was greedy and wanted to take a shortcut to make more money, so I was fooled!
As for the saying that a peasant is worried about others wearing silk, it is even more nonsense. The money others spend on wearing silk is not yours, so why do you hate the rich for no reason?

Even the grass for the white deer was not bought by Yipin Guo or asked to be fed by them. This matter has nothing to do with them. In fact, for the sake of their own business, it is only natural that they will not accept the sheep from here in the future.

Yipin Guo is still willing to buy it because it is concerned about the farmers' hard work in making money and does not want them to suffer losses in vain. This is also Yipin Guo's kindness.

Taking other people's kindness for granted and then not appreciating their kindness, isn't that a sin?
People like this are violent and narrow-minded. From now on, gods, Bodhisattvas, the God of Wealth and others will have to avoid them. You have to stay away from these people to avoid being contaminated by bad luck!
Seeing that everyone else in the village sighed, shook their heads and left, only the few families who were clamoring just now were left, and they could not help but look at each other in confusion.

Why are everyone gone?
Did they say something wrong?

But what was wrong?

It took a whole day to arrange these things.

Having stayed in Changzhou City for two days, Lu Qiyan planned to return to the military camp early the next morning.

Xia Mingyue began to pack all the things for Lu Qiyan.

The weather was getting colder day by day, so autumn clothes were indispensable. In order to prevent Lu Qiyan from not having time to come back, Xia Mingyue simply took the winter clothes and cotton shoes she had just made some time ago with her.

One set of winter clothes, but three pairs of shoes and several pairs of socks.

People who practice martial arts don't like shoes, and they will inevitably sweat when they are training in the military camp. It will be more comfortable to change and wash them frequently when it is cold. Seeing that his wife was so thoughtful, Lu Qiyan felt warm in his heart, "Thank you, my wife."

"Are you still telling me this?" Xia Mingyue smiled and stuffed the square oil-paper package into Lu Qiyan's hand. "Since you have been promoted to deputy army commander, your daily meals will probably not lack oil and water, so I won't prepare too much food for you."

"It's just that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and I don't know if you can come back to celebrate it. Here are some mooncakes I made, you can try them."

Because Lu Qiyan came back just in time to deal with many things, Xia Mingyue was really busy. In addition, although the mooncake molds and oven were already made, the latter had not been fully fired up. Xia Mingyue was afraid of failure on the first attempt, so just to be on the safe side, she only made some snow skin mooncakes.

It is easy to make, there is no chance of failure, and the skin is soft and delicious, sweet but not greasy. It is also very suitable as a snack.

The only downside is that because the main ingredient of the snow skin mooncake skin is glutinous rice flour and it is steamed, its storage time is limited and it is best to be consumed within two to three days.

"Okay." Lu Qiyan nodded repeatedly, rubbing Xia Mingyue's hand in his palm for a long time, "The weather has changed recently, remember to add or remove clothes in time."

"Okay." Xia Mingyue agreed with a smile.

“Don’t overwork yourself.”

"it is good."

"Remember to eat well every day."

"it is good."

"Don't kick the quilt when you sleep at night."

Xia Mingyue, "..."

Where did she kick the quilt when she slept at night?
But he was just a little bit dishonest when he was sleeping, and always put his hand on Lu Qiyan.

What does this have to do with the quilt?
Seeing his wife blushing because of his teasing, Lu Qiyan found it very funny. He also thought Xia Mingyue was very cute in this state. He just stretched out his hand and scratched her small nose, "I will come back when I have time."

"Okay." Xia Mingyue still answered obediently, watching Lu Qiyan get on the horse with his heavy bag and ride away.

Lu Qiyan walked out of the city gate, and when he felt he had walked a lot further away, he took out the mooncakes that were originally in his bag and put them in his arms.

The lady's feelings must be placed closest to his heart.

But it doesn’t seem quite right?

My wife said that it is best to keep the snow skin mooncakes in a cool place. The hotter the place, the easier it is to spoil.

that……

After thinking for a moment, Lu Qiyan simply opened the oil paper package, took the snow skin mooncake and put it into his mouth.

It is most suitable to put it in the stomach!

The surface of this snow skin mooncake is cool and soft, and the red bean paste filling inside is delicate and sweet, melting in your mouth, and is very delicious.

As expected, the food cooked by my wife is always the best! (End of this chapter)
