C25 Save the Silver for Me First

Zhou Yueniang returned to the front of the Feng Family convoy, but before she could get into the carriage to report to the Miss about the food, she was pulled down by a servant girl.

"Mother Zhou, are you courting death? Miss Lingwei is talking about something with Young Master Hao. "

"Prince Hao also came to the Three Purities Temple?" Zhou Yueniang was shocked. The Feng Family s in her eyes normally wouldn't step out of the door, but this time, they were coming to the Three Pure Temple's gathering so she had to hide a little further.

"Seeing you so flustered, Master said that Young Master Hao was unwilling to swallow after accumulating food for so many days. He asked him to come out and take a walk. Perhaps he just wants to eat something to relax his mind." Miss Lingwei has brought him out and is currently trying to eat inside. Mother Zhou, let's stay far away from him. " The maidservant said.

Zhou Yueniang felt the same, so she quickly turned around to leave.

But just at that time, the curtains of the carriage were pulled open and a face of "supernatural work of art" was revealed.

Staring at Zhou Yueniang with eyes like deep pools, he asked, "What are you holding in your hands? It looks like... It looks really delicious! "

"What?" Prince Hao, are you joking? "You, you want to eat something?"

Ohhh, this Feng Linghao's anorexia is notoriously hard to deal with. Zhou Yueniang felt a headache. She was being watched by Feng Linghao, but where should she go to find something for the little Buddha to eat?

Wait a minute! Could it be that young master wants to eat … Jam?

Zhou Yueniang tentatively opened a small pot and handed it to Feng Linghao. "Young Master, do you want to eat this sour and sweet thing?"

"What is this?" Feng Linghao couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Feng Lingwei also walked down from the carriage and asked with some suspicion, "Brother Hao, what's wrong?"

"Big Sis, I want to eat the food in Mother Zhou's hands." Feng Linghao said.

Feng Lingwei's gaze swept over Zhou Yueniang as she hurriedly offered up the jar of orange paste.

Feng Linghao was like a ghost as he grabbed the jar and scooped up a spoonful of orange jam into his mouth. His eyes immediately lit up, "Sister! "This is the taste, this … this is the taste I've always wanted to taste!"

The jam was sweet, but not tiresome. Although it was stewed, the sweet and sour taste of the oranges were well-preserved. Just what kind of taste was this? He had never tasted anything like this before!

Seeing how her brother liked the jam, Feng Lingwei observed it from the side and said: "Mother Zhou, go and look for the person who made this jam. Tell them that my Feng Family wishes to hire him to enter the Feng Family and cook for Young Master."

"Ah?" Oh! This old servant understands! " Zhou Yueniang answered and ran towards the Three Qing temple fair hawkers, afraid that the jam would be bought out.

However, when she arrived at the meeting, she couldn't even find Mei Jing and Madame Rong. It was only after she asked around that she found out that she wasn't the only one who knew what was good for them. When she had just left, Mei Jing's jam had been bought by the people from the neighboring restaurants.

Zhou Yueniang was just about to hate herself for not being able to buy all of the jam in one go, when she suddenly thought about the address that Mei Jing had told her before, the Meigen Village, the thatched cottage. Was there a need to be so conflicted?

Mei Jing didn't know about Zhou Yueniang's return after her departure. Seeing that the jam was not as hard to sell as she had imagined, she and Madame Rong bought some rice grains at the Sanqing Temple Meet after selling them out. Then they went home to pick plum blossoms and wild fruits together.

The plum blossom had been harvested a lot, but there were still no wild fruits, probably because the harvest this year was not good, and the villagers would also go up the mountain to look for food everyday, but Mei Jing did not take it to heart. In Hundred Flowers Town, the fruits were not expensive, as just two gold coins was enough for a big basket. The most important thing was the peach gum, this thing could only be found during the winter. Mei Jing and Madame Rong had not seen any peach gum for a long time, it seemed that they could only 'make' the peach gum during the summer.

Madame Rong looked at Mei Jing and thought that she was disappointed because she couldn't find any wild fruits, so she smiled and comforted her, "Jing, mother knows that there's a person who specifically goes up the mountain to pick fruits. Mother will go to her house later and ask her to cook some fruits for us."

"Mom, it's not that I'm sad, it's just that I'm thinking about the preservation of the jam." Mei Jing said.

It's winter now, so it's not a problem to keep the jam, but in a month or two it'll be spring. When the weather gets warmer, how can the jam be stored? Mei Jing could not help but have a headache. Jams were so easy to sell. Naturally, she would not do such a thing!

Madame Rong, who didn't understand all this, frowned. "That's right, what do we do now …"

"Forget it, there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Mom, let's go home first!" Mei Jing grinned and tossed all her worries to the back of her mind. Without thinking about it much, she took Madame Rong's arm and started walking home.

Initially, Mei Jing had thought that her and Madame Rong's days would be smooth sailing, but there was no airtight wall in the world. The mother and daughter pair were selling jams at the Three Purities Temple Gathering, and the matter of good business was also spread back to Meigen Village. The mother and daughter duo had just come back from picking plum blossoms from the mountain when they saw Mei Laoer sitting on the doorstep smoking on a pipe with an irritated look on his face. It seemed like he had been waiting for them for a long time.

Madame Rong's eyes turned sour. She quickly turned around and whispered to Mei Jing, "Jing, let's go pick some plum blossoms …"

However, it was too late. Mei Laoer, who was sitting on the threshold, saw the mother and daughter pair. He immediately stood up and smacked his butt, walking towards them with impatience written on his face. "Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?"

The tone of her voice was exactly like that of a husband who knew the evidence of his wife's fraud. However, Mei Laoer had crossed the line. He and Madame Rong were no longer husband and wife.

Madame Rong didn't say a word. Mei Jing stood between the two of them and calmly asked: "Father, what brings you here today? My mother and you have already left each other. You came to find her, and if you spread the news, it would be unpleasant to hear about my mother's reputation. In order to avoid arousal, you'd better not look for my mother in the future! "

She definitely wouldn't be nice to a scum like Mei Laoer! He would immediately turn cold and tell him not to come back in the future!

Mei Laoer frowned and raised his hand to hit Mei Jing, but when he thought about Madame Guan's orders, he suppressed the urge to hit her and said: "Today, I came to find your mother. You're just a money loser, scram."

She then shifted her gaze onto Madame Rong and instructed her, "Hurry up and get me five taels of silver. I can't even open the pot on my side anymore. There's not a single white one left in the rice bowl!" You and this money loser ate so much of my rice grains before, now it's your turn to raise me. How about this, you save all the silver at home for me first, then I'll bring Mother to live with you guys at west slope, this way you can save a bit of rice grains. The two of you, repair the roof a bit more, and get mother and I two new quilts. It's barely enough to stay here, so it's decided. "

Mei Laoer thought he was still a pillar of his family, so he spoke sincerely and earnestly, hoping Madame Rong would understand.
