Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Selling the Son

  Wei Wencheng opened the box, pointed at the silver inside and smiled at Li Yu: "It's all 12 and 1 ingots, Miss Li, after you have counted them, let's sign the contract."

Li Yu roughly counted and nodded with a smile, "It's okay to sign a contract, but I'll say it before, you have a lot of food, you must hire someone to cook, if someone leaks it, you can't rely on me, and, As time goes by, if someone finds out, you can't find me, if you think what I said is reasonable, we will sign the contract, and I will tell you the formula after the contract is signed."

  Wei Wencheng discussed it with the man, nodded and said, "Okay, none of this is your responsibility."

  Wei Wencheng wrote the contract and the two mentioned by Li Yu. After the two pressed their fingerprints, Li Yu smiled and said, "Mr. Wei, please record it!"

  Wei Wencheng took out a pamphlet, Li Yu explained the method of each pickle, Wei Wencheng felt as if he had figured it out, "You use sugar to freshen up, so what's the use of liquor?"

   Li Yu smiled, "Liquor can be antiseptic, and it can slow down the speed of food spoilage."

  Wei Wencheng suddenly realized, "Oh! That's how it is! Miss Li is really a blue-hearted woman."

   "You have won the prize, I just want to live a better life, do you still want pickles?"

  Wei Wencheng laughed, "Yes, why not, I can't get the dishes now!"

  Wei Wencheng turned his head and instructed Ah Sheng, "A Sheng, let someone drive the mule cart here."

  Li Yu stood up, looked at Wei Wencheng and pointed at the silver, "Mr. Wei, I'll put the silver first, and go take the pickles out of the cellar."

  Wei Wencheng nodded, "Okay, you can also wait for them to help you."

   "No, I'm sorry." Li Yu picked up a box in one hand and walked towards the bedroom.

   Wei Wencheng and the man stared dumbfoundedly at Li Yu holding the silver and walked lightly into the main room.

The    man gestured at Li Yu's stature, "Oh! I really didn't see it." After thinking about it, he felt a pity, "If it's a man, let's take him with us."

  Wei Wencheng smiled and said, "Young Master doesn't know something, most of the talented people like to hide in the countryside."

   "Yeah! What you said also makes sense." The two got up and went to the courtyard, watching the douban in the sauce tank and smelling a salty fragrance, Wei Wencheng pointed at the doubanjiang, "There must be white wine in it too."

   The man pointed at Wei Wencheng with a smile, "You earned it."

  Li Yu put the silver in the space and turned around to go to the wing, took some sauce jars from the space, and stacked them in the two wing rooms.

  Asheng brought several mule carts to Li Yu's house and loaded the pickles into the mule cart together with Li Yu. Li Yu put the sauce jars in the space in the wing and moved them out while they were not paying attention.

The villagers were all around the door of Li Yu's house, and someone said, "Look, these are the pickles made by Xiaoyu and the others. I heard that they sell very well. They cost 20 to 30 cents a can! If Zhang Defa knew that Xiaoyu could make money like this , I don't know how to be so angry?"

   One person said with a smile, "I can't get it back if I'm mad. The two families are in trouble like this. That's why! This person can't do anything better. Speaking of which, the Zhang family brought it up on their own."

  Li Yu helped carry the pickles into the car and returned to the yard. Wei Wencheng gave her the pickles money, and the remaining pickles were sold for a total of more than 160 taels.

  Wei Wencheng took the man to leave, and the driver drove the mule cart and pulled the pickles to the outside of the village.

  Li Yu sold the pickles and was completely light, and was about to go to Li Mei's place to have a look. Mrs. Qian came back from the field behind with a hoe, saw Li Yu smiling and asked, "Xiaoyu, you are back!"

   "It's been a while since I came back, Aunt Qian. After I've sold out the pickles, I don't need to send the vegetables to Shunfeng Inn. I'll go and tell my aunt."

   Qian Shi didn't expect that when he came back after working for a while, Li Yu sold out the pickles and smiled happily, "I should tell her to make her happy too."

   "Well! You asked Xiao An to take Lao Huang out for a walk."

   "Hey!" Qian Shi responded and went to call Xiao An to let the cattle go.

  Li Yu went back to the house and took out forty taels of silver, carrying pheasants and wild ducks to the place where Li Mei's house was repaired in Dongshan Village.

  Li Yu arrived at Li Mei's house, and saw Laidi sitting at the door with her head down, carrying the wild duck and pheasant and shaking her eyes, "Little Laidi, there is something delicious!"

  Laidi looked up and saw Li Yu, she got up happily, "Cousin, you're here!"

  Li Yu looked at Laidi, "What's the matter with Xiao Laidi? She frowned."

  Laidi turned her head and pointed to the inside of the shed, and said with a look of disgust, "My grandma is here and she is scolding my mother at my house."

Li Yu rushed in a few steps after hearing this, and heard an old woman pointing at Li Mei's nose and scolding: "Sangmenxing, occupying the pit and not shitting, what's the use of the house being built so well, the third child will adopt his son to you, You still don't want to..."

  Li Yu saw Liu Changmin squatting there holding his head, Li Mei raised her head and looked stubbornly at the old lady.

Li Yu felt sour in her heart and called out, "Auntie." Li Mei's tears fell when she saw Li Yu, Li Yu hugged her, turned to look at Liu Changmin and said coldly, "Uncle, find someone to write the IOU. Okay? My brothers still have to settle accounts! Your family has been living in my house for more than a month. The food money for more than a month and the money for building the house totaled 42 taels, and 50 taels a year. At the end of the year, with fifty taels of profit, but we agreed, don't renege on your debt!"

  Liu Changmin quickly stood up after hearing this, "Xiaoyu, I'm sorry, my uncle has forgotten about it, I'll find someone to help write it."

   "What are you writing, you are stupid!" Mrs. Liu grabbed Liu Changmin and didn't let him go. Li Yu went over and pinched her wrist. Mrs. Liu was in pain and quickly released her hand and let Liu Changming go.

Li Yu held her back, "This is an old and disrespectful old woman, do you want to repay your debts? Who didn't know that my uncle's family was a pure family at the time. I lent my aunt's money to repair the house, and you let your grandson come to live there. "Li Yu looked at her and spread out her hands, sneered, "Yes! I'll leave right away with the money."

   Mrs. Liu pouted, "I don't owe you any money, and whoever borrows it, you will pay it back."

Li Yu picked up a wooden stick and swayed it in front of Mrs. Liu before breaking it in two pieces. Li Yu played with the two sticks and said with a light smile, "You didn't mean to let your grandson live here. Come in to support my aunt and the others? You're not all right, wait for your grandson to live in, and I'll find your grandson to pay it back."

   Mrs. Liu was stunned and quibble: "Who would come to his house to help him pay back the money." Mrs. Liu pushed Li Yu away and walked out.

   Li Mei then looked at Li Yu and said, "Yu'er, why did you remember this?"

Li Yu swallowed what he was going to say, "I sold all the pickles to Mr. Wei, so I just wanted to come and have a look." Li Yu pointed to the half-renovated house, "Why are you repairing so slowly? It's time for labor."

Li Mei burst into tears and looked angry, "Old Goddess, come here every three days to stir up trouble, and insist on adopting the youngest son of the third family to us, can a seven or eight-year-old child be able to support a family? Let's talk about his family. I don't want to spoil children with that kind of virtue."

   "In the future, you will take out the IOU, and whoever lives will pay back the money."

   Li Mei burst into tears, "You still have a way."

  Liu Changmin went to the patriarch's house, asked him to help write the IOU, and took it home and handed it to Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, it's better to have an IOU, so that they won't worry about it."

   Li Mei gave Liu Changmin a white look and took the receipt, "It's not your fault, I listened to your mother before. Look, why didn't she bully the second family."

  Liu Changmin looked at Li Mei with a pleasing smile, "Amei, Xiaoyu brought wild ducks and pheasants, and Zhao Di is cleaning up! Hurry up and help."

   Li Yu also smiled and said to Li Mei, "Auntie, don't blame my uncle, hurry up and fix the house, otherwise what will happen when the rainy season comes!"

   Li Mei and Li Yu came outside the shed, and Li Yu said to Li Mei, "Aunt, I'm back, you can come home when you have time."

  Li Mei nodded without holding back Li Yu, watching her go away.
