Chapter 59 Don't be polite

Sun Ju went to pick vegetables in the yard, and Su Man went with him just because he was fine.

There are more than a dozen rows of cucumbers, beans, and loofahs. There are a lot of slices, and many of them are overripe and haven't been picked.

"Auntie, these dishes are overcooked, why don't you pick them?" Suman asked.

"Don't mention it. Dajiang is in charge of the yamen. I can't eat by myself, and I have a child. Picking a la carte to sell, and it doesn't cost much. The vegetables that everyone grows are left to the elders."

Suman looked at those old cucumbers and beans, his phoenix eyes turned slightly and he had an idea.

Within half an hour, Sun Ju had already cooked a large table of dishes.

Cucumber scrambled eggs, cold cucumbers, fried pork with beans, cold beans, pork belly potatoes, and tofu with shallots, very hearty.

"Man girl, eat more, just like your own family, don't be polite." Sun Jue was originally a bold temperament, pungent, direct, what to say, very sincere.

"Yes, little genius doctor, eat more." Lin Jiang followed up.

"Uncle, aunt, I won't be polite to you. By the way, aunt, why don't you sell me all the cucumbers and beans of the elders in your family." Suman said while eating.

Hearing this, Sun Ju was puzzled: "Why, those are all old, if you want to eat them, my aunt will pick fresh ones for you."

"In every market, I will come to the town with my mother to sell vegetables. We also need vegetables. Your old cucumbers and beans will be broken anyway. Just sell them to me, and I will give you five copper coins. How about it? "Suman asked.

"Five, five copper coins?" Sun Ju asked in disbelief.

"What's the matter with the little genius doctor? You are my family's benefactor, so how can you take advantage of you. If you want to sell vegetables, go ahead and pick them. Anyway, they are worthless when you are old." Lin Jiang said.

Su Man smiled slightly: "Uncle, if you know how much I sell, you won't be polite to me."

"How much?" Sun Ju asked curiously.

"I'm going to sell it for fifteen coppers."

Just as Lin Jiang ate the food in his mouth, he almost spit it out: "Ten, fifteen copper coins?"

He has lived so long, and he has never heard of beans and cucumbers being sold for such a sky-high price, and the best dish is only three copper coins.

"Of course I can't sell it like this. I have my own way. In short, I want all your cucumbers and beans. You don't want to sell me." Suman joked.

"Whatever you are, I can give it to you, but I can't accept five copper coins, it's too much." Sun Ju agreed unhappily.

After all, it was Su Man who cured Lin Jiang's leg, and Ye was his family's benefactor. Sun Ju couldn't be more grateful, so naturally he couldn't take advantage of it.

"If my aunt is embarrassed to take it, wait until the next market, and my aunt will sell vegetables with me, and it will be considered as vegetable money and labor money. Besides, Dabao is three years old, and he still needs to study in the future, and it will cost money to build a house and marry a wife." Where you are, don't be polite to me."

Su Man's words touched Lin Jiang's heart. Although he was a prison boss, he only spent two taels of silver a month, and if he didn't eat or spend money, he couldn't get more.

Sun Ju has a three-year-old child and can't work, and the family's livelihood depends on these two taels of silver.

After dinner, Lin Jiang, Su Man, and Yang Cuiliu picked all the old cucumbers and beans on the melon shelf, and there were two big baskets.

In the afternoon, Lin Jiang was on duty at the county government office, and Su Man went to the town to buy four large jars and a lot of spices.

When she came back, Sun Ju had already been washed.

Suman cut the cucumbers into rectangular strips and the beans into small pieces that were neither too long nor too short, and put them in two large pots.

Sun Ju was very curious: "Man girl, can you sell fifteen copper coins in this way?"
