Chapter 104: Reward in Silver
After half an hour passed. The sun was no longer blazing. Ye Muyu sat in the courtyard with Chu Ziluo, sorting out the wild fan flower fruits they had picked. Separating the good from the bad was essential, as the price offered at the medicine shop would vary accordingly. "Mom, my brother will be coming back from school soon. Should I go and pick him up?" Chu Ziluo, while working, softly asked not forgetting her responsibility to take care of her brother. "Your clothes are still at the old house, right?" "We'll get them back tomorrow." "Speaking of which, tomorrow morning, I want to go to the county for a stroll." Ye Muyu wanted to inquire about places where cattle were sold, especially cows that had recently given birth to calves. She needed milk. However, compared to buying a cow, she thought it might be easier to just buy milk. After all, not everyone was willing to sell a cow, especially considering the cost of raising a calf. Moreover, the price of a cow would be at least ten or more taels of silver. "Mom, I want to go too." Chu Ziluo, holding onto Ye Muyu's clothes, looked up with hopeful eyes. Sometime, Chu Ziluo had started to dare to act coquettish. Ye Muyu was pleased to see this change in her daughter and agreed with a smile, "Alright, but you better not sleep in tomorrow." Ye Muyu teased her. "Mom, I won't sleep in. I'll wake up early." Chu Ziluo clenched her fist, quickly assuring that she could do it. Ye Muyu chuckled and shook her head. Chu Ziluo didn't stay any longer, she went out to pick up Chu Jin. Ye Muyu had just finished selecting the wild fan flower fruits in her home. Du Shi, accompanied by Du Laosan, came in. "Madam, we've finished our work today. May we go back now?" Du Shi tentatively asked. Ye Muyu hadn't had a chance to see what they had been doing and she was about to get up when Du Shi, as if knowing what she wanted to ask, honestly said, "We've dug up all four plots of land and cleared out the roots of weeds. We can start preparing for planting tomorrow." Hearing about roots, Ye Muyu suddenly thought of kudzu roots. She stood up and walked outside. "Where did you throw away those roots?" Du Shi didn't know why she was asking this and feared that their work was not satisfactory, leaving a bad impression on Ye Muyu. She quickly followed and said, "Madam, over here. We put all the unwanted roots on the side and didn't dare to throw them randomly." Ye Muyu quickly walked to the place Du Shi mentioned. On a small patch of empty ground, there were quite a few roots. Ye Muyu walked over and saw very small kudzu roots inside. To her surprise, Du Shi and Du Laosan were meticulous in their work and many kudzu roots were intact with only a very few damaged. However, the kudzu roots in this area were not very old. Taking them to sell, she didn't know how much silver she could get. Ye Muyu smiled satisfactorily and gave Du Shi two copper coins. "You've done the job meticulously. Take these two copper coins to buy steamed buns for yourselves." Steamed buns cost one copper coin each and although it wasn't much, you still needed to spend copper coins to get them. Du Shi was originally confident in the work they had done but in the face of Ye Muyu's calm and serious demeanor, coupled with her unpredictable thoughts, she became a little uneasy for a while. It wasn't until Ye Muyu smiled and rewarded them with money that Du Shi felt relieved and flattered, saying, "This is what we should do for the main family. As long as you are satisfied, madam." "Then come again tomorrow. Once the work in this field is done, there might be other tasks for you."📌 To Read The Latest Updates Click 👇👇
