General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 48

48 Making Things Difficult

Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou went to a food shop near the market.

On the way, Su Ergou asked his sister excitedly, “Sister, how many more days do we sell the pastries for?”

“Three days at most,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

As the new year approached, there were fewer and fewer customers in town. Their business did not seem to be affected, mainly because there were many return customers. Everyone was thinking of holding some new year’s goods. Once the new year passed, almost no one came out to buy.

“Only three days?” Su Ergou was disappointed.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him in amusement. “You like selling pancakes so much?”

“Yes.” Su Ergou nodded.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “It’s cold and freezing and you’re being told what to do. Don’t you feel tired and annoyed? In summer, it’s hot and you might get heatstroke. Don’t you think it’s better to lie at home?”

Su Ergou shook his head. “But I’ll be hungry if I lie at home.”

Su Xiaoxiao sighed and touched the back of his head. “I won’t let you go hungry again.”

With the launch of the new product, they needed more and more ingredients. Yesterday, she ordered 20 catties of glutinous rice noodles, 30 catties of white sugar, 50 catties of flour, and 100 duck eggs.

The salted egg yolk used for the yolk pastry was marinated by her. She did not know if salted duck eggs were sold in the capital, but there were none in town.

The moment the egg yolk pastry was out, it immediately became everyone’s new favorite.

However, because the cost of the salted egg yolk pastry was too high, it was sold for 25 copper coins each. The students could reserve them for 23 copper coins each.

This price was still cheaper than Jin Ji’s snacks, so they sold very well.

The two of them arrived at the grain shop and unexpectedly met Aunt Huang.

Ever since she got snubbed at Little Su’s house, Madam Huang had hated Fat Lass Su. She had been thinking about how to get back at her, but coincidentally, this damn fatty came knocking on her door!

“Yo, I was wondering who it was. Isn’t this that little heartless ingrate?”

Hearing Madam Huang’s sarcastic words, Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh.

“What are you laughing at?” Madam Huang said with a dark expression.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “I’m laughing at you for not saying anything if you don’t know how to speak, lest you embarrass your son.”

Madam Huang fell back in anger. “You!”

Su Xiaoxiao said bluntly, “What about me? First of all, Aunt didn’t give birth to me, and second of all, you didn’t raise me. Why did I become an ingrate? If you really want to call me an ingrate, aren’t you more like an ingrate who sucked the blood, sweat, and silver of my deceased aunt and treated her children harshly?”

Madam Huang had long learned this girl’s sharp tongue, but it was still infuriating to hear her speak again!

She pointed at Su Xiaoxiao’s nose. “You, you, you... Damned girl, don’t be too arrogant! Your cousin is going to the city to study! When he becomes the High Scholar, you’ll see!”

If he passed the county examination, he would not have to kneel to the county magistrate. If he passed the examination, he would only be more glorious! Thinking of this, Madam Huang finally felt better.

She straightened her back and said, “Wretched girl, just you wait! The first thing your cousin will do is chase you out of town!”

How arrogant of him to chase her out of town! However, the High Scholar was indeed very rare in this dynasty, especially in such a remote town. It was a rare existence. It was not an exaggeration to say that the High Scholar is someone who had transformed into a dragon.

Could it be that Chen Haoyuan could really do it?

When Madam Huang saw Su Xiaoxiao in deep thought, she thought that she must have felt guilty and afraid.

Madam Huang was extremely proud!

Since Su Xiaoxiao had offended her, she would let her see how powerful she was!

“Girl! It’s too late to regret it now! Even if you kneel down and beg me, I can’t agree to your marriage with Erlang!”

Su Xiaoxiuao was incredulous. Who wanted to be her daughter-in-law?

Was Wei Ting not handsome anymore? Or was Wei Ting’s waist not good?

However, Madam Huang was right about one thing. After Chen Haoyuan became the High Scholar, Little Su’s family would definitely not have a good life.

Su Ergou said bitterly, “Sister, why are you stopping me? He’s a man. How can he be frightened by a woman?” _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}
