Chapter 41: Last life died of poverty

Ye Jiu said this, and Ye Wenqing’s heart was even more touched.

Elders are elders after all. Even though his younger aunt was three years younger than him, she was far better at being a person.

Ye Wenqing made a decision in his heart, he must learn from his younger aunt in the future. When facing issues, he needed to learn to think from others’ perspectives and not just bla others all the ti, grumbling against the world.

Seeing that the preamble was set, Ye Jiu continued to express his purpose, “I didn’t use all the dicine that old man gave. Life at ho is tough, especially in the winter. My elder and second brothers can only earn money by working in town, so I thought to sell the leftover dicine at the pharmacy, in hopes of exchanging it for so coin to help with family expenses. But I didn’t expect… to run into this kind of trouble, nearly losing our lives in the process!”

Talking about this, whether it was Ye Jiu or Ye Wenqing, they both were still frightened.

At the sa ti, this was also the first ti they felt what power really ant!

...

The injured nobleman looked extraordinary, otherwise, he wouldn’t have brought two guards with him and could attack without any rcy, repeatedly threatening to exterminate soone’s entire clan.

If one’s family had no background, which family would even consider such arrogance and despotism without thinking thrice about offending others?

“Younger aunt, it has already passed,” Ye Wenqing said blandly.

“Right, it has already passed.” It was only now that Ye Jiu rembered, she didn’t even know where she got the courage from just before running away, she still rembered to snatch the silver note from that person’s hand. Thinking about it now, it was actually quite funny.

Truly as soone who died poor in a past life, even close to losing their life in this one, she still didn’t forget to take the money!

Ye Jiu clenched the silver note in her hand tightly and put it in front of her, the three characters “One Hundred Taels” glaring aggressively at her eyes.

Considering current prices, an egg cost one coin, and the Ye Family’s entire annual expenses were not more than a few taels of Silver. This hundred taels would be enough for the Ye Family to save for over ten years without eating or drinking, and even then, it might not be enough.

“Younger aunt, you say… this is 100 taels of silver? Could it be that you saw it wrong?” Hearing this amount, even Ye Wenqing swallowed hard, his heart full of disbelief.

Hearing Ye Wenqing say this, Ye Jiu rembered that in the eyes of the Ye Family, she was illiterate!

So, Ye Jiu laughed awkwardly, “Well… I’m not too clear on that.”

“How about we go to the money exchange to ask? I heard that the smallest denomination for silver notes is also fifty taels, so this shouldn’t be less than fifty taels, right?” Although fifty taels seed less shocking than one hundred, such an amount of money was still exciting, Ye Wenqing thought.

After saying this, Ye Wenqing hesitated a bit, “It’s just that the money exchange is a bit far, and there’s Uncle…”

Ye Jiu’s eyes rolled, “I have an idea, co with .”

Ye Jiu pulled Ye Wenqing into a nearby cloth store. The New Year was nearly upon them, and Mrs. He’s clothes were several years old, patched so much that they were unsightly to look at, and Ye Jiu felt pity for the old lady.

Ye Jiu and Ye Wenqing’s clothes were not good, making it obvious that they were from a common farming family, so no one ca up to serve them.

Ye Jiu didn’t care, instead carefully picking from the ordinary fabrics.

Although they now had money, flaunting it due to their family situation wasn’t good, so Ye Jiu didn’t plan to buy too expensive a fabric.

After picking for a long ti, Ye Jiu called over an attendant, and had several yards of dark blue fine cotton cloth cut according to Old Man Ye and Mrs. He’s sizes. The elderly shouldn’t wear bright colors, which wouldn’t be appropriate, but this kind of dark color suited both the old couple.
