76 Chapter 76: Big Girl Li’s Advice

“Of course, we can’t just ignore this matter.”

“Sister Sanya, you can mention it to Aunt Song. Of course, don’t let Aunt Song talk to Brother Song directly. Let her mention it in passing here and there.”

“Brother Song will definitely consider Aunt Song’s opinion,” Big Girl Li said.

Qin Xiaoyao’s brows finally relaxed when she heard that.

!!

This was a good idea.

However, her attractive husband mentioned buying a courtyard dwelling in town only last night. It would be too obvious if she let her mother-in-law try and persuade him at once.

Forget it. Big Girl was right. There was still a long way to go before she could build or buy a house. There was no rush.

At the thought of this, Qin Xiaoyao felt much more relaxed.

She stretched out her empty hand and patted Big Girl Li’s arm.

“Thank you…” she said in a forthright manner.

Then, she strode forward in big steps.

Big Girl Li was surprised.

“Hey, wait for me, Sister Sanya!” She quickly gave chase.

Back at the Song family’s house.

Liu Erniu had already arrived.

Qin Xiaoyao asked Big Girl Li to go to the stream and bring back the fish they caught yesterday.

She then entered the house and moved the vegetables and mountain products they had collected from the villagers yesterday with Liu Erniu.

Before long, the items were loaded onto the handcart.

Qin Xiaoyao was about to push the handcart herself, but Liu Erniu beat her to it.

“It’s fine. Let Erniu push! In any case, he would have to push the handcart into town alone in the future. Just let him practice his skills this time,” Big Girl Li said.

Liu Erniu smiled and nodded.

He agreed with his sister-in-law.

In addition, he found that after he pushed the handcart forward, it was indeed not as heavy as he had expected.

“Alright! Then we’ll be leaving first!” Qin Xiaoyao bade Madam Liu and the others farewell.

“You can go home and wait, or stay at my house to help. You are not allowed to go into the mountains before I return,” she instructed Big Girl Li.

“I know!” Big Girl Li replied awkwardly.

Qin Xiaoyao then left with Liu Erniu.

They arrived at Fortune Mansion.

The people working in the back kitchen of Fortune Mansion had dealt with Qin Xiaoyao many times, and they were already familiar with each other.

Seeing Qin Xiaoyao, the kitchen staff in charge of receiving them was very happy.

“You’ve delivered these vegetables just in time. We don’t have to arrange for people to go out and buy them!” the kitchen staff said.

“What we said before still stands. From now on, if you can deliver 150 catties of vegetables every day, we’ll give you the job of delivering vegetables!” The kitchen staff looked at Qin Xiaoyao with a smile.

“That’s the purpose of my visit. However, I can only come every other day. On the other days, can I let this little brother of mine deliver them? What do you think?” Qin Xiaoyao looked at Liu Erniu as she spoke.

Liu Erniu tensed up instantly, not even daring to look at the kitchen staff.

On the other hand, the kitchen staff sized up Liu Erniu.

“Okay! When you come, just tell us your name, and we’ll settle the bill!” he continued.

Qin Xiaoyao’s face lit up.

“Thank you so much, little brother!” She quickly cupped her fists in thanks.

The kitchen staff cupped his fists and returned the greeting.

“Why are you being so polite? It’s the right thing to do!”

After that, the kitchen staff ordered his men to weigh Qin Xiaoyao’s vegetables and fish, then tabulated the total.

After that, he wrote out an invoice and paid them the money.

Qin Xiaoyao took the money and bade farewell to all the kitchen staff before leaving with Liu Erniu.

Liu Erniu, who was pushing the handcart, felt much more at ease after they left the back kitchen of Fortune Mansion.

Then, after walking for a while, he suddenly said to Qin Xiaoyao, “Mrs. Song, you’re really amazing!”

Back home, he had heard his sister-in-law tell them how amazing Mrs. Song was.

He didn’t believe it before, but now he did.

There were so many kitchen staff, including the head of the kitchen staff, but they were all very polite to Mrs. Song.

How could an ordinary person have such an ability to command so much respect?

Also, Mrs. Song was too capable at earning money.

This one cart of vegetables and fish were actually sold for 810 copper coins!

He knew that Mrs. Song and his sister-in-law had gathered all this together last night and this morning.

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Liu Erniu.

“Hehe! What’s so amazing about that? It’s all because of my Uncle Zhao’s help,” she smiled and replied.

...

“Let’s go. We need to hurry back. Your sister-in-law is still waiting for me at home.”

“Alright!” Liu Erniu replied hurriedly.

Pushing the handcart, he followed Qin Xiaoyao and moved forward briskly.

Along the way, Qin Xiaoyao chatted with Liu Erniu about the work situation.

She encouraged him and strengthened his courage to enter the town alone to deliver goods.

The two of them walked very fast and soon returned to Brook Falls Village.

They arrived at the Song family.

As expected, Big Girl Li was there, and she was helping Madam Liu weigh the mountain goods the villagers brought over to sell.

When she saw Qin Xiaoyao and Liu Erniu return, Big Girl Li quickly stopped what she was doing and handed the work over to Madam Liu.

“You’re back?” she greeted them with a face full of joy.

“Yup!” Qin Xiaoyao replied.

...

She instructed Liu Erniu to push the handcart to the dilapidated shed at the side.

That was where the Song family used to raise poultry, but ever since Father Song became seriously ill, the Song family stopped keeping poultry.

After that, the place was tidied up and turned into a storage room.

Qin Xiaoyao cherished her handcart very much. When she wasn’t using it, she would always place it in the storage room.

After Liu Erniu left with the handcart, Qin Xiaoyao finally turned to look at Big Girl Li.

Immediately, she called out to Big Girl Li standing in front of her, and they went into the kitchen.

“The fish this time was sold for a total of 658 copper coins. I’ll give you 20%, so that’s 132 copper coins.” She lowered her voice and said.

This was because there were outsiders in the courtyard, and she didn’t intend to let them know her income.

Otherwise, it would really be hard not to attract the envy of others.

Big Girl Li’s eyes were filled with joy.

“So much?” She also lowered her voice and asked Qin Xiaoyao in surprise.

“It’s not that much. All of our fish added up to about 60 catties!” Qin Xiaoyao said as she counted out the money for Big Girl Li.

After counting the money, she handed it to Big Girl Li.

“Tell Erniu and your Liu family not to tell anyone about how much money we’ve made,” she reminded her.

“Otherwise, I’m afraid it’s not safe to put the fishing net in the river, and even those Chinese Toon shoots in the mountains may not be secure.”

In fact, she had warned Big Girl Li about this before.

However, she felt that she needed to remind her again today.

It was mainly because Erniu had seen her deal with Fortune Mansion with his own eyes.

She was a little worried that the child would not be able to keep his mouth shut.

“I know!” Big Girl Li quickly promised her. “I’ll remind my family again when I get back.”

Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

“By the way, can you help me calculate again how much I have to give to my mother-in-law?” Big Girl Li asked again.

Qin Xiaoyao pondered for a while.

“26 copper coins is enough!” she said.

Big Girl Li quickly memorized ’26’ twice in her mind.

“Then I’ll go back now and send the money back. In case I forget how much it is!” As she spoke, Big Girl Li walked out.

Qin Xiaoyao didn’t stop her.

She also followed her out of the kitchen.

She then called Liu Erniu over and counted 30 copper coins for him.

“This… I can’t take this, Mrs. Song! My mother and sister-in-law already said that today’s work will not be paid!” Liu Erniu waved his hand in rejection and even took a step back.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao smiled and took a step forward.

She reached out and grabbed Liu Erniu’s hand before forcefully shoving the copper coins into his hand.
