The general is happy: the fierce wife of the peasant family is ruthless and stunning

Chapter 82

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he heard Tan Lanfang's voice of arguing and aggrieved.

It turned out that Li San was having a hard time here. Since Tan Lanfang became pregnant, her temper changed drastically, and she couldn't eat anything.

As soon as she smelled the food, she started to vomit. Li San made her a lot in different ways, but she couldn't take a few mouthfuls.

But she refused to eat, and Li San was worried that she would be hungry, so he had to force her to eat a few more bites.

But as soon as she finished her mouth, Tan Lanfang spat it all out.

After vomiting it out, she began to reprimand Li San.

"You just don't want our mother and daughter, so you torment me like this, right? You know I can't eat, why are you forcing me to eat?"

After listening to Li San's bitterness, Li Chenggu expressed his deep understanding.

Sending the basket of fruit to Tan Lanfang, seeing that the pregnant adult can finally eat it, the brothers and sisters began to pour bitter water on each other.

When the time was almost up, Li Chenggu came out from Tan Lanfang's house.

Went to the top of Bailao Mountain.

Because he had to guard the orchard day and night, he set up a simple tent on the mountain so that he could rest and sleep every day.

In fact, he couldn't keep it for a few days. Li Chenggu contacted the rich fruit merchants in the town early in the morning, and agreed to come over to pick the fruits in a few days.

Although it is much cheaper to sell fruit to vendors than to sell it loosely, but after all, there are a lot of orchards and it is very troublesome to sell it loosely, so you can make a lot of money by selling it at wholesale prices.

On the appointed day, Li Chenggu went to the village entrance early in the morning to meet the fruit merchant.

The person who came to collect the fruit was a well-dressed young man with a good appearance, followed by a few people who looked like servants.

After an introduction, Li Chenggu found out that this person's name was Bai Yanlang, and his family had been in the fruit business for several generations, and he could be regarded as a well-known family of merchants in the local area.

This was the first time he started a business instead of his father this year, so he personally took care of the boy to pick fruits on the mountain, and he also learned some skills.

Li Chenggu asked curiously: "Then how much fruit do you harvest in one autumn?"

"Generally speaking, there will be thousands of catties. This year's weather is not good, and the fruits are not very prosperous. There are about eight or nine hundred catties."

Li Chenggu was in awe when he heard this, thinking that the orchard at home was just a drop in the bucket, and to him it was just a small business.

"So many fruits, won't they spoil if you store them every day?"

"I have a special ice cellar in my house, which is used to store these seasonal fruits. When the time comes, I will send them door-to-door to those noble people's homes to enjoy. They will be supplied until this time next year. It won't be bad, but this year's fruit production is small. I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Li Chenggu heard it in his heart, and chatted with him about some techniques for taking care of fruit trees, as well as the relatively scarce fruits on the market, and planned to cultivate them in the future.

Although the land in Bailao Mountain is suitable for growing fruits, it is not a big place after all, and Bai Yanlang only forced the boys to pick them all day long, and they finished picking them all.

Li Chenggu followed him to weigh the fruit again.

Apples weigh one hundred catties, pears weigh sixty catties, and peaches weigh a full eighty catties.

Bai Yanlang didn't deliberately lower the price because Li Chenggu was selling fruit for the first time, and he calculated it at the normal price.

"In previous years, the purchase price of apples was one renminbi, but this year it has been increased to two renminbi; pears were two renminbi in previous years, but this year it is three renminbi; peaches were one renminbi in previous years, but this year it has risen to three renminbi..."

"Why did the peaches rise so much?"

Li Chenggu was a little surprised when he heard this.

"Today's peach harvest is the worst, but your peaches grow well here, which is different from others...Ahahaha..."

Bai Yanlang was also enthusiastic, and he talked with Li Chenggu.

"If you want to put it this way, wouldn't it mean that the better the harvest, the cheaper things will be, and the worse the fruit harvest in a year, the more expensive the market price will be?"

Li Chenggu asked him with a smile.

"That's the reason."

Bai Yanlang replied.

After calculating the weight, the group began to calculate the price.

Apples cost two denarii a catty, and the total is one hundred catties, which is 20 taels of silver; while pears cost three denarii a catty, and there are sixty catties, which is 18 taels of silver; Jin is 24 taels of silver.

The total is 62 taels of silver.

After passing the scale, Bai Yanlang asked the boy to load all the fruits into the cart.

Li Chenggu was also thoughtful, and said to him: "I don't want these two taels of change. I will pick up a few boxes of peaches and go back to give my wife a taste. She has recently become pregnant, so this is it."

Even if Li Chenggu put it on again, it would not cost more than three to five catties.

Erasing the fraction of two taels of silver obviously made Bai Yanlang earn more money.

Bai Yanlang immediately replied: "Brother Li, you are being polite, you can choose as you please, it is a great happy event for your esteemed wife to be pregnant, you must inform me when the time comes, I will ask for a glass of wine."

"That's natural."

"sure."

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Li Chenggu returned home with sixty measures of snow-patterned silver and several baskets of peaches.

However, what he didn't notice was that there was a person next to him who witnessed the transaction with his own eyes.

At night when Li Chenggu returned home, he handed over all the money to Qin Ya.

And those baskets of peaches were brought to Qin Ya as if they were offering treasures.

However, Qin Ya was no longer as happy as she was in the past few days, and felt a little nauseated the moment she saw Tao Zi.

Quickly said to him: "Take these things away quickly."

The second monk Li Cheng and Gu Zhang couldn't figure it out, and said puzzledly: "I watched you a few days ago, didn't you like this, I specially left it for you today."

Qin Ya didn't buy it, she frowned and said, "I liked it a few days ago, but I don't like it now, take it out quickly, I feel sick to my stomach when I see the smell."

Li Chenggu had no choice but to take the peach and put it in the kitchen first, and then came back to see her.

Seeing that he had put down all the peaches, Qin Ya felt better, and her frown also eased.

But Li Chenggu felt that she had a very picky mouth recently, so he came over to hug her with a smile, hugged her in his arms and said, "You little mouth has been very picky these days."

Qin Ya was not happy when she heard this.

"Where is my choice, it's not all your daughter. I want to eat this today, and I want to eat that tomorrow. What I liked yesterday, I won't be able to eat it tomorrow..."

Li Chenggu knew that she was struggling during pregnancy, so he nodded his chin on her head, and said softly: "Now we have money, I will take you to the town tomorrow, what you want to eat, what do you want?" Choose by yourself, as long as you like it, we can buy it back, okay?"

Qin Ya glared at him angrily: "Even if you still have a little conscience, you don't know if it's for me or for your daughter."

"What's the matter, now I'm even jealous of my daughter?"

Li Chenggu laughed and teased her.

Qin Ya refused, and said sarcastically, "Who is jealous? I just want to test whether you are a qualified husband..."

"The lady tried it out, am I a qualified husband?"

"you do not……"

Before she could say the word, Li Chenggu stopped her with her mouth.

He has been putting up with Qin Ya for a long time these days, and it just so happens that he made a calculation with her today and put Qin Ya on the kang. He intends to vent his emotions in a way he likes...

Gradually, Qin Ya was sent to the top by him, and she no longer had the strength to criticize him.
