Chapter 329 Farmer Girls Are Not Easy To Mess With (19)

The Su family at this time.

Mrs. Su was holding two ginseng coins and looking over and over again, reluctant to put them in the box for a long time.

Seeing her like this, old man Su knew that she was happy, but he still urged: "Since you came back, you have been holding on to these silver coins, and they won't run away, so hurry up and make dinner, and you have to go to the fields tomorrow! "

"Hey, I'll go right now."

Old Madam Su reluctantly put the silver back into the box, looking at the box full of silver taels, she finally felt better.

The ten taels of silver given to Su Yan today almost emptied her treasure box, which made her feel bad for a while, but fortunately it was filled again.

Mrs. Su took the meat bought by old man Su to the kitchen. To celebrate Su Yan's family moved out, she would cook a delicious meal today as a reward.

As soon as she picked up the knife, she heard someone knocking on the door. The frequency of knocking on the door was relatively frequent, so it must be something urgent.

"Stop knocking, it's called Hun'er!" Mrs. Su walked over to open the door.

She thought it was Su Yan's family who came to the door again and was about to reprimand her, but she met a slightly impatient and delicate face.

Mrs. Su was dumbfounded.

"Jiang's girl? Why are you here? What's the matter?"

Being from the same village, she is no stranger to Jiang Yan, and even takes good care of her because she has a good relationship with Jiang Yan's grandmother.

It's just that she was a little puzzled. Normally, Jiang Yan didn't leave the gate, but she didn't walk through the second gate. How could she come here today?

Seeing Mrs. Su, Jiang Yan gave her a friendly smile, "Long time no see, Grandma Su. I have something to ask Mrs. Li. Is she at home?"

"Look for Xiu'e, she's here, please sit in the courtyard for a while, and I'll call her out for you."

"Okay, thank you, Grandma Su."

Jiang Yan followed Mrs. Su into the courtyard, saw the meat piled up in the kitchen with sharp eyes, but didn't think much about it, she just thought it was for working hard in the field, to reward the old man Su.

She sat down in the courtyard, while Mrs. Su went to the east courtyard to look for Li Xiu'e.

"You're looking for my mother... for those two ginsengs?"

Just when Jiang Yan felt that there was nothing to do, a female voice that sounded a bit weak suddenly sounded behind her.

Jiang Yan was surprised that she knew about ginseng, and turned her head quickly, only to see Qiaojie wearing a faded pudding dress, standing not far from her with a bucket of watering vegetables.

"How did you know?"

Jiang Yan didn't deny it, after all, they will know sooner or later.

Sister Qiao pursed her dry lips and said truthfully: "I was the one who accompanied me that day. Mother took me to the back mountain after she came out of your house, and soon dug up two ginseng roots. It's a pity that we turned over There are only these two in the entire back mountain."

She is not stupid. When she saw that the two ginsengs were in the same pit, she realized that something was wrong, and when she thought of how her mother hurried to Jiang Yan's house before going to the back mountain, she immediately thought that the two ginsengs must be It is related to Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan looked at her with surprise in her eyes. She never thought that Qiaojie, who had always been a transparent person, was so smart.

It's just a pity to have such parents.

"You're right. Those two ginsengs are indeed mine, and I came here this time to exchange those two ginsengs with the silver in my hand."

Jiang Yan clenched the small cloth bag in her hand, which contained ten taels of silver, which was all her net worth, and she planned to use the ten taels of silver to buy back two ginsengs.

When Sister Qiao heard the words, a look of pity flashed in her eyes, "You are late, my grandfather has already taken those two ginsengs to the town to sell, and returned for silver, and the meat in the kitchen was bought with the exchanged silver." As she spoke, she pointed to the huge piece of pork that was so enticing in the kitchen.

Jiang Yan's expression changed, "How could it be so fast?"

She thought about what happened to the Su family today, they should not have the heart to sell ginseng, so she came here with money.

But where did she expect that the ginseng had already been sold by them.

What should I do now?

Just as she was thinking about it, Li Xiu'e hurried over from the East Courtyard with Su Dong in her arms.

"Xiaoyan, why are you here? I heard mother said that you have something to do with me? Why don't we go outside the door and tell? Sister Qiao, come and look at your brother. If he falls down, I can't spare you!"

"I see, mother." Qiaojie didn't dare to refute, she put down the bucket quickly, came over and carried Su Dong away.

"I do have something to ask you."

Jiang Yan led Li Xiu'e outside the door.

At this point, everyone was cooking at home, and no one passed by the door, so they didn't have to worry about being overheard.

"Sister-in-law Li, I heard sister Qiao say that you sold those two ginsengs in the town?"

Li Xiu'e didn't know what Jiang Yan meant by asking this question, so she cursed Qiaojie's big mouth in her heart, and then nodded, "It seems so. After all, these two ginsengs are not small. Mother was worried that they would be spoiled, so she told Dad I sold some of them, and Xiao Yan asked them what to do with them?"

After hearing her say that the two ginsengs were big, Jiang Yan was even more regretful. You must know how good she kept the bigger one, and Li Xiu'e was in vain!
"I just need ginseng for urgent use. I thought that your family had such a big incident today, and it would be tomorrow to sell the ginseng, so I thought of coming over to buy one, but I didn't expect that you had already sold it."

"It's all thanks to my father. He is familiar with the clerk in the pharmacy. I heard that he has two good ginseng. As soon as the clerk reported it, the shopkeeper took the ginseng away."

Jiang Yan was full of pity, but she could only think of another way.

At this time, she suddenly thought of another thing.

Jiang Yan got closer and whispered, "You said you saw a jade pendant at Su Mu's place earlier, but now you can get it?"

"Jade pendant?" Li Xiu'e rolled her eyes, and then said: "You still can't trust me? After I came back from you yesterday, I went to find a way, but it was a pity that Zhao Xiaowan saw it when I got it. In desperation, I had no choice but to give it away Destroy, I'm sorry for you."

Seeing Li Xiu'e's heartbroken face, Jiang Yan believed it.

"If it's ruined, let it be ruined." This is better than Su Mu bringing the jade pendant to find her, then her real good life is over.

Li Xiu'e smiled and nodded, "Thank you Xiaoyan for your understanding. By the way, mother bought some meat. Would you like to eat some with us? If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to live such a good life now."

Because of those two ginsengs, she now also holds some weight in her parents' hearts. The good life has just begun, so she naturally doesn't want to lose it like this.

In order to get more ginseng in the future, she doesn't mind trying to curry favor with Jiang Yan, just because she can provide herself with ginseng.

What she didn't know was that the ginseng in Jiang Yan's hands was snatched from Xie Chao's hands. Now even Xie Chao couldn't find ginseng, so how could she get it?
Jiang Yan thought of Xiao Yu who was still lying on the bed. She squeezed the silver tael in her hand. With this little silver tael, she might not be able to purchase suitable ginseng...
