Ye Liu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words of the mammy. It seed like it was a false alert but he still did not drop his guard as the mammy had three guards with her and each one of them was holding swords.
"I can give it to you but we were the ones who caught it, we cannot give it to you for free. It’s not easy to catch a ga in such weather," said Ye Liu. He did not want these people to eye them, if he was too generous with them, these people might target his family. He did not know these people and there was no need for him to be kind to them.

"In normal circumstances, this roe deer would be sold for twenty taels," stated Ye Liu as he pointed at how plump and large the deer was, "How much are you willing to give? Don’t even think about snatching because our village is close by. We will scream if you make trouble." He added while guarding Fang Chi and the children.
"How about I give you sixty taels?" The price of food was three tis higher than in the past but even if they were willing to buy, no one was willing to sell leaving the money in their hands to rot. What was more, this roe deer was fresh and was rather fat. It was not a loss for them either. "I will also hand you five taels for the rabbits."
The mammy added as her gaze fell on the rabbits hanging by the side of Ye Liu’s waist.
Ye Liu: "…" My rabbit.
He wanted to keep the rabbit to himself but when he saw the condition of the three guards, he swallowed his words back and nodded, "Fine but I will only sell one. I will add another pheasant instead of rabbit," He was the one who caught these things, did it make sense for him to not even get a bite of the rabbit at?
The mammy also understood that Ye Liu most probably ca to hunt because he wanted to satiate his own cravings. She nodded and agreed with what Ye Liu said, "All right then I will buy one rabbit for three taels and the pheasant for one tael?"
Her heart ached when she said those words as the pheasant was only sold for fifty copper coins but now she had to take out a tael for it.
"I am not an unscrupulous person. Just give
a hundred copper coins for the pheasant, it does not have much at," Ye Liu snorted as he turned to look at the mammies behind him who walked forward and placed the roe deer, rabbit and pheasant on the ground in front of the mammies and the guards.
The mammy nodded at the honest attitude of Ye Liu and handed him the money.
"The…The ginseng," the prince who was lying inside the carriage croaked. Earlier he had heard that these people had found ginseng, and even though, he did not know how old this ginseng was, the prince was willing to buy it.
He was almost on his last breath after escaping from the palace and had no idea how he survived till now. The children in his belly were about to co out in a few months and yet he didn’t even have the energy to open his eyes.
The prince was very worried that he would die and leave his wife behind, he did not want his wife to be left alone as she had shed tears many tis while worrying about him not wanting her.
It was because of him that Madam Fu went to the army and beca the disciple of the General. She wanted to climb the ranks and beco worthy of him, but in the process, she lost her life many tis. The two of them were in love and the prince wanted to give birth to his beloved’s children no matter what.
He knew that if he died his wife would follow soon, how could he be willing?
Now he could only hope that this ginseng would save his life when he was almost a breath away from dying.
Fang Chi and Ye Liu exchanged a look with one another, they popped their heads to the side and looked at a heavily pregnant r. His big stomach and thin figure was really terrifying. One could see that he was not having a good ti.
"Well… I would have given it to you but.." Fang Chi took out the ginseng and showed it to the mammy whose breath was stagnant.
It was five hundred-year-old ginseng! Even if they were to give everything that they had at the mont, they could not buy it.
Seeing the expression on the face of the two people including the guards, Ye Liu understood that they did not have enough money. He pursed his lips and questioned, "How about this? If you have sothing good then you can it to us. We are not being heartless but you need to understand that we also need to look out for ourselves."
The prince nodded at his words. He turned to look at the mammy and said, "Bring out the gift that was given to
a few days ago." He was talking about the Imperial offering that was handed to him at a banquet that was held by his sister.
It was just fruits but they were rather rare.
"We have so rare fruits, do you want them?" The mammy wanted to keep those fruits for her prince as they tasted really good but compared to this life-saving ginseng… those fruits were nothing.
"Okay," Ye Liu nodded.
The mammy heaved a sigh of relief as she turned around and brought so grapes, waterlon and slightly redder mangoes.
They did not look good as they had been left inside the carriage for a long but Ye Liu did not have the heart to ignore a pregnant r in need. He took the fruits as well as the money that the mammy handed to him and then gave them the ginseng.
Feeling like he had made a loss.
