Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The housekeeper recognized Shao Yunduan immediately and when he saw both of them coming, he invited them in passionately. He rushed to inform the
First Madame and Old Master as well as the Third Young Master of their arrival.
Although he had no idea what the relationship between Young Master Shao and Old Master was, he knew that Old Master and First Madame considered them as very important figures.
Shao Yunduan had mentioned on the day when he came over to ask for the doctor that he would come and visit them soon. So, their arrival was not very sudden. Yuezheng Xiao came to greet them personally and they laughed, and talked happily.
Qiao Xuan had carried mushrooms, wooden ears and snow fungus with them. Yuezheng Xiao asked his men to carry them all into his yard and started to check them out.
Yuezheng Xiao’s eyes sparkled when he saw what was in front of him. He patted Shao Yunduan’s shoulders., “Brother Shao, these are wonderful snow fungus! And these mushrooms, wooden ears are all in great form. Oh my, your village is great, and it has everything!’
Shao Yunduan. ‘
Qiao Xuan chuckled.
Yuezheng Xiao asked about the weight of those things and informed them about the market price. Then, he bought them all with a price twice more than that in the market.
The first-class dried snow fungus weighed 36 liang for half a kilo, and sundried mushrooms and wooden ears were priced at 100 wen and 60 wen for half a kilo respectively.
This amounted to more than 700 liang in total.
Qiao Xuan had not expected that the snow fungus and mushrooms, as well as wooden ears would have different pricing, when she started to plant them. She had thought that they would simply be measured by weight.
She was planning to plant enoki mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, straw mushrooms, and tea tree mushrooms in the future. It seemed that all kinds of mushrooms could be sold for money.
Then she learned that snow fungus was not easily planted, and the price was very high. In comparison, the other mushrooms were much cheaper.
But they had already planted mushrooms and wooden ears, so she would reduce the amount and plant more snow fungus next time.
She was going to start by having a few mu of snow fungus at the Zhang Village in the near future.
Then, she was going to expand the scale slowly.
She would have to add a few more categories of mushrooms. All of them could earn money, which was what mattered above all.
Soon, Yuezheng Xiao dealt with the things they had got and took them to the guest room.
“You can stay here for a few more days. The weather is getting warmer. There are many beautiful sites outside the city to visit.”
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan exchanged a look and said with a smile, “Let’s see. We will be here before the autumn examination. Please don’t think we are annoying by that time, Brother Yuezheng!’
Yuezheng Xiao patted his head and chuckled. “I almost forgot about that! Do remember to come early at that time!”
After exchanging a few more words, Yuezheng Xiao waited for Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan to put away their stuff, and came to greet Old Master and First Madame together.
Yuezheng Xiao’s Elder Brother, Yuezheng Hong was at home too. Yuezheng Hong and his wife were heading towards their parents to meet Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan.
The first section of the Yuezheng Family were all so thankful towards Qiao
Xuan and Shao Yunduan.
But for Qiao Xuan, they would still be in a very bad situation.
First Madame liked Qiao Xuan very much. She treated her as her daughter, which she did not have.
It was getting very late, so they did not visit Madame Yuezheng. But they sent a messenger to tell Madame Yuezheng that they had guests.
Learning that it was a poor couple visiting, Ms. Mi Junior felt annoyed and remained indifferent..
