Isn’t it foolish not to earn money, especially when encountering such a rare wealthy person? Of course, there’s no need to hold back!
However, she still tried to pack a few more peaches for him.
"Big brother, you can take this basket too, otherwise it would be hard for you to carry everything." This basket was woven by Lin Sanshui himself, and since the man gave her a silver ingot, giving a basket as well was a big win.
The guard wasn’t shy about it and directly picked up the basket and returned.
On the carriage, Nan Jin Yu, who had been watching from the side, couldn’t help but slightly smile when he saw the joyful expression on Gu Nian’s face as she sold her goods.
But in just a mont, he noticed the change in his mood, quickly put down the curtain, and stopped looking outside. His expression returned to a cold and indifferent deanor.
"Princely Heir, the peaches have been bought back." The guard stood beside the carriage awaiting instructions.
After a long while, a casual command ca from inside, "Let’s go."
Gu Nian returned to Lin Sanshui’s side, and his baskets were already sold out, he was packing up his things.
"Dad, guess what this is?" Gu Nian stood in front of Lin Sanshui, slightly turning her body to hide the silver in her hand from the people nearby.
Lin Sanshui was montarily stunned, quickly grasped Gu Nian’s small hand, then nervously asked, "Daughter, this... where did you get this from?"
Gu Nian lowered her voice, her eyes full of smiles, "Just now, a well-dressed big brother ca and bought peaches, and he gave this."
"Ten taels of silver, these peaches... are they really this valuable?" Lin Sanshui glanced down at the three peaches left on the ground and touched the few copper coins in his pocket. Gu Nian had taken about the sa amount of peaches, but the price she sold them for was worlds apart.
At that mont, Lin Sanshui truly believed that this girl’s luck was simply extraordinary.
"Daughter, quickly put this money away, don’t take it out. There are so many people on the street, what if it gets stolen, it’d be such a waste."
So this large ingot of silver was actually ten taels!
Gu Nian turned her hand and placed the silver directly into Lin Sanshui’s hand, "Dad, you keep it. Shall we go buy so at to eat?"
"Alright, then Dad will save it for you. When you grow up, it’ll be for your dowry." Lin Sanshui’s hands trembled with excitent. This was the wealthiest mont in his entire life.
"No need, I’ll earn much more money in the future. Let’s keep this for household expenses." Gu Nian squatted down to look at the things on the ground, only three peaches were left.
Gu Nian picked up one and handed it to Lin Sanshui, "Dad, why don’t you eat this peach to save the trouble of carrying it all the way ho? The remaining two are for my brothers."
Lin Sanshui took a look, "You eat it yourself, Dad..."
Before he could finish, Gu Nian had already stuffed the peach into his hand, "Daddy, you eat it. I don’t want any more peaches, I want so at."
"Okay." Lin Sanshui responded with a smile, "Let’s go, Dad will buy the at and then pick up your two brothers."
The at vendor was not far from them, and as Lin Sanshui and Gu Nian stood in front of the stall, the butcher greeted them, "Today’s pork is fresh and cheap, more fat than lean. Big brother, which piece would you like?"
Two chunks of pork hung on the rack, with ribs attached. Gu Nian took a look around, indeed there’s more fat than lean at.
Pigs in ancient tis weren’t like modern fast-bred pigs; they were fed with pigweed and slop, and the at must be very flavorful.
"Boss, how much is this pork?" Gu Nian, cravingly staring at that row of pork ribs, was already imagining sweet and sour ribs and braised ribs in her mind.
