47: Chapter 48 Send so at to _1 47: Chapter 48 Send so at to _1 Sun Erhu took the chopping board and kitchen knife and squatted on the ground to chop; if he did it on the table and used too much force, the table might just fall apart.
Hearing the noise from next door, Li Clan’s heart itched with impatience.
These past few days, she had been slling the at from the Fourth Boss’s house and was dying of craving.
The Fourth Boss’s household was living a pretty good life; they had only just split from the family and already they had chicken and fish, and today even rabbit!
How could she sit still?
She wasn’t acquainted with the Fourth Boss’s wife and couldn’t bring herself to ask, but was she not familiar with Sun Erhu?
With this thought, Li Clan ca out of her room.
It just so happened that Qiao Duo’er had gone to Sun Erhu’s ho to pick vegetables, which made things even easier.
Li Clan, with her hands on her hips and a coquettish smile, said, “Brother Erhu, look at , pregnant as I am, carrying such a big belly each day, it’s really exhausting.
Could you cook so rabbit and bring so over for ?”
Sun Erhu, though reluctant, didn’t want to lose face by refusing and could only nod.
“When my sister-in-law has cooked it, I’ll bring a bowl over to you.”
Li Clan said contentedly, “That’s why you’re good, Erhu.
It wasn’t in vain that your sister-in-law doted on you.
Once I give birth to this child, I’ll definitely help you make a set of clothing.”
Sun Erhu silently complained that she had been saying this ever since she entered the Tan Family’s door.
Now Third Girl was already four years old, and he hadn’t even seen a piece of fabric.
He figured he would never wear clothing made by her in his lifeti.
“No need, I have enough clothing,” Sun Erhu said slowly.
Li Clan gave a forced laugh, “Who would ever complain about having too many clothes?”
Sun Erhu didn’t answer, and seeing that he wasn’t paying her attention, Li Clan went back to her room.
After all, she was already getting the at and couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words!
Being pregnant with this baby had exhausted her.
After breakfast, while it wasn’t so hot, Sun Erhu hurried to town.
Today was market day, and instead of selling his baskets directly to the general store, he set up a roadside stall.
This way, he could get two Wen money more for each basket.
Tan Zhenghong was quite skilled, and the items he made sold well.
By noon, everything was sold out.
Sun Erhu then packed up and headed ho, quickening his pace as he thought of the savory rabbit at and soft stead buns.
Upon arriving ho, he didn’t care about the heat and quickly handed the money bag to Qiao Duo’er.
“Sister-in-law, the vegetable baskets are five Wen each, the carrying baskets eight Wen, and the straw hats three Wen, making a total of one hundred and twenty Wen.
Count it,” Sun Erhu said cheerfully.
Qiao Duo nodded, and without counting, she put it in the broken box in the wardrobe.
She trusted Sun Erhu that much.
However, she hadn’t expected Tan Zhenghong to be so productive, earning over a hundred Wen in just a few days.
As they started eating, Sun Erhu timidly said, “Third sister-in-law told to bring her so rabbit at.”
“Sure, go on and send so over,” Tan Zhenghong nodded.
His third sister-in-law wasn’t a stranger, after all.
Qiao Duo took an empty bowl.
Though Li Clan did like to take advantage of small gains, she wasn’t so annoying.
Sending a little was okay.
Only then did Sun Erhu put a few pieces into the bowl to bring over.
Arriving next door, Tan Zhongzhong, Li Clan, and Third Girl were eating, consuming wild vegetable buns and a stack of pickles.
In fact, there were plenty of vegetable varieties in the sumr, so there was no need to resort to pickles.
But no matter how many vegetables there were, it was hard to overco laziness.
Cooking a dish of pickles could feed a family for several als; could other vegetables do the sa?
Seeing Sun Erhu, Li Clan’s eyes lit up.
But when she saw the bowl in his hands, her face fell.
She had seen the size of the rabbit, so what did it an to send her only this much?
