She was replaced by a husband, married the future tyrant and farmed to fight back

Chapter 158 Good Wife

"If business is good, we can expand production and sell it in various counties," said Liu Yingyue.

Qin Yiran saw her counting on her fingers as she talked about her plans, and his brows relaxed. "We are not short of money at home, Yingyue, you don't have to work so hard."

He held her hand.

"It's easy money, so why not make it?" Liu Yingyue shook her head. "I was thinking that we could save as much money as possible and buy a big house in the capital."

"You want to go to Beijing?" Qin Yiran looked at her eyes.

"Don't you want to? I have never been to the capital city since I was a child." Liu Yingyue looked towards the direction of the capital city with a look of anticipation.

Qin Yiran thought of Liu Yingyue in his dream.

She closed her eyes forever in a military camp outside the capital city, and she never entered the capital city in her life.

"After Xiuzhu gets married, I will take you to visit the capital." Qin Yiran put his arm around her shoulders.

Liu Yingyue's eyes sparkled, "Really?"

"of course."

"That's great." Liu Yingyue hugged Qin Yiran's neck and smiled like a child.

Her joy also infected Qin Yiran, and the corners of his lips gradually rose, "In the future, I will take you to more places."

"Okay." Liu Yingyue blinked excitedly, with a look of anticipation on her face.

She didn't know whether Qin Yiran was telling the truth or just trying to coax her, but as long as he meant it, that was enough.

Because he had never said such intimate words to the original owner, nor had he made any vows.

Thinking of another thing, Liu Yingyue asked, "By the way, I only paid the Qian family a deposit of fifty taels. The contract I signed states that I will pay the balance after the goods arrive. The balance is two hundred and four taels. Have you paid it?"

Qin Yiran pinched Liu Yingyue's chin and said, "I'm not that poor, your husband. I can still afford the two hundred and forty taels."

"Thank you, my husband." Liu Yingyue hugged Qin Yiran and took the hit.

But she knew very well that Qin Yiran definitely did not have so much money on hand.

All the grain harvested from the 300 acres of land was given to Heifeng Village, but the village had to support 20 farmhands and pay land tax for the 300 acres of land.

The expenses are not small.

After this batch of goods is sold, she has to find a way to help the village make money.
-
The amount of fabric for one thousand sets of cotton clothing is huge.

Qin Yiran said that Liu Yingyue was not in good health, so he shouldn't worry about this matter.

Liu Yingyue wanted to sell it for money, so he found a buyer for her.

Liu Yingyue also knew who the so-called buyer was.

It’s Qin Yiran.

She still pretended to be ignorant and praised Qin Yiran for being capable and considerate of her.

Qin Yiran bought two hundred and ninety taels of cloth and gave Liu Yingyue four hundred taels a few days later.

Liu Yingyue refused to accept so much. "You paid two hundred and forty taels of silver that day. How can you give me all of it?"

Qin Yiran's face darkened. "When did Yingyue become so distant from me that she had to calculate the money so clearly?"

Liu Yingyue tilted her head and looked at him, "So, your silver is mine, and mine is mine too?"

Qin Yiran glanced at her calmly, curling his lips, "What do you think?"

Liu Yingyue didn't have much money on hand.

He intended to let her keep more money on hand so that he could see how much she could cash out.

The Liu Yingyue in his memory knew nothing about business, but the Liu Yingyue now was as shrewd as an abacus. "Then I'll be polite." Liu Yingyue was like a money-grubber, happily putting all the banknotes into her purse.
-
After Liu Yingyue made a deal with the Qian family, she no longer interfered with them.

She knew that once Qin Yiran found the way to the cotton coats, there would definitely be a large number of follow-up orders.

Qin Yiran had to come up with an excuse to conceal the large order for clothes.

For ordinary people doing business, an order of thousands of pieces is already a large order, but if Qin Yiran wants to place an order of tens of thousands of sets, he has to find an excuse.

Despite this, Liu Yingyue was not idle and she still went out frequently.

However, she now rode out on horseback alone, without the red beads.

Because there are some things that Hongzhu should not know.

Liu Yingyue dismounted from her horse in front of a small house on the market street.

She tied the horse to a tree near the gate and knocked on the door.

Soon, an old woman opened the door. Seeing Liu Yingyue, she blinked and asked, "Madam, is there anything wrong?"

"I'm here to look for Madam Xu. Mr. Qian asked me to come. I'm a female doctor." Liu Yingyue nodded and at the same time, she grabbed a handful of silver from her purse and handed it to the old woman.

When the old woman saw that she was carrying a backpack used only by doctors, she did not suspect anything else and let Liu Yingyue enter the house.

"Who's here?" a young woman asked in the main room.

"Mrs. Xu, it's been more than nine months, right? How are you feeling recently? Do you sleep well? Do you have a good appetite? Do you have any discomfort in your legs?" Liu Yingyue walked into the main room and nodded to the pregnant woman.

The woman was about twenty years old, with charming features and a bulging belly.

She blinked, "You are..."

"Madam, she said that the master asked her to come. It was a female doctor." said the old woman who came with them.

Madam Xu also noticed the doctor's backpack on Liu Yingyue's shoulder and nodded, "I have indeed been feeling a little uncomfortable these past few days. You came just in time. Please take a look at me."

Liu Yingyue helped Madam Xu sit down and felt her pulse. After a moment, she said, "There is nothing wrong with the madam and the child. The madam is not feeling well because she will give birth in three days. You must not go out these few days."

Madam Xu breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you're alright." But soon, she frowned again and said, "Only three days?"

"To be exact, there are only two and a half days left. Madam Xu will give birth at noon the day after tomorrow." Liu Yingyue said.

Madam Xu became anxious and said to the maid, "Madam Wu, please go to the Qian family later and ask Mr. Qian to come."

Mother Wu said in embarrassment, "But Madam Xu, the master said that I cannot go to the manor without his permission."

"I can't care about so many things anymore. I'm about to give birth, but he hasn't had his period for a month. Does he still care about me?" Mrs. Xu stamped her feet in anxiety.

"My lady, don't be anxious. Don't get excited. If you get pregnant, you'll have to give birth early." Liu Yingyue hurriedly calmed Madam Xu.

But Madam Xu was anxious, as she was afraid of giving birth alone.

No matter how Liu Yingyue tried to persuade her, Madam Xu's anxiety did not subside, and she kept urging Mother Wu to go find Mr. Qian.

Mother Wu had no choice but to say to Liu Yingyue, "Then I'll have to trouble you to help look after my wife."

"Don't worry, I'm Mr. Qian's man, I will." Liu Yingyue nodded.

Mother Wu sighed and then hurried out.

But when she opened the door, she was surprised to see Mr. Qian coming.

"Mr. Qian, you are finally here. My wife was just about to ask me to look for you."

"Didn't I tell you? I come here once a month. What do you want from me?" Qian Yuanwai said coldly. He got off the donkey and saw the horse tied to the side. He asked in confusion, "Whose horse is this?"

Because the horse looked familiar.
