Chapter 361: 361 Jealousy



“Alright, alright!” Wang Cuihua said discontentedly, “All you people, you want Su Qingyue to make you rich, but when you were getting rich, who shared with her? When the Xiao Family was in trouble, who lent them a single cent?”

Listening to this, Su Qingyue felt that Wang Cuihua seemed to be defending her on the surface, but in reality, she was reminding her that the Zhou Family had lent money to the Xiao Family, and her family should be grateful.

She hopes Qingyue wouldn’t think like that. Speaking of debt, Zhou Fuquan’s life was still saved by her second brother.

Qingyue glanced at the carriage and noticed that some clever people had already taken note of what seasonings she had bought, probably thinking that the stir-fried fern she cooked had some of those seasonings in it. She looked at them too.

Madam Qian touched the cotton wadding on the cow’s car and said, “The cotton wadding in my house is so old it’s hardened. I’ve never touched cotton this comfortable…”

Qingyue said lightly, “Madam Qian, you can look at it, just don’t touch it at random.”

Madam Qian was immediately angry, “Why, is it because you’ve made some taels of silver that you’re so stingy even a touch on your quilt is not allowed? Are you going to be this petty?”

“This has nothing to do with whether I’m petty or not.” Qingyue pointed at the handprint she had left on the cotton surface, “Look at your hands, you didn’t wash them, they’re so dirty, you’ve dirtied my padding.”

Madam Qian drew back her hands, “I didn’t do it on purpose.”

“You should be careful not to touch other people’s new quilts if your hands are dirty… If you dirty it, being from the same village, if they asked you to compensate them, it wouldn’t be nice.”

“We’ll just look…”

Madam Qian was embarrassed by the comment, so she changed the topic and spoke to Wang Crippled, who was driving the cow’s car, “Wang Crippled, Su Qingyue has been hiring your car these days, and you’ve made quite a lot of money from it.”

“That’s right,” Wang Crippled didn’t deny it.

Qingyue greeted him, “Grandpa Wang, drive the carriage to my yard, I’ll walk over.”

“Okay,” Wang Crippled drove the cow’s car towards the Xiao Family’s yard.

At this time, the Old Lady of the Zhu Family had come back from the mountain with a load of firewood. Seeing her, Wang Qigu smirked, “Oh dear! Lady Zhu, you’re late, Su Qingyue just left!”

“What does it have to do with me.”

“I’m saying it’s a pity for you. You sold Su Qingyue for only sixteen taels, and now she’s made at least a few taels of silver in just a few days. You don’t know, she bought five padded mattresses, five cotton quilts, and a lot of seasonings. She also bought a lot of pots the other day. If you add up all those things, there must be at least ten taels’ worth!” Wang Qigu clicked her tongue, “You sold her for just sixteen taels, and now she’s making so much money. How much of a loss is it for you!

“Loss? I bought her for fifteen taels and sold her for sixteen taels, so I didn’t lose anything but gained one tael.” The Old Lady of Zhu family actually regretted it to the point of her intestines turning green. These days, almost everyone in the village had been talking about how much money Qingyue made from stir-frying ferns and how many things the Xiao Family had bought… If she had known that Su Qingyue was so capable, she definitely wouldn’t have sold her so cheaply.

But everyone laughed at her, saying that the Zhu Family had no luck, selling off someone as good at making money as Su Qingyue. She had heard it so many times that she was furious and simply refused to admit that she had sold Su Qingyue at a loss.

“Not a loss?” Aunt Qi knew her too well, “I don’t believe you don’t regret it, I don’t believe you don’t feel jealous when you see Su Qingyue making so much money, which was originally supposed to come into your house but now it’s going into the Xiao Family. I’m telling you, even Old Lady Liu, who offered seventeen taels and didn’t buy Su Qingyue, regrets not offering a higher price. She’s thinking that if she had offered just a bit more, perhaps the Xiao Family would have been willing to sell her. Now that Su Qingyue is so good at making money, the Xiao Family is holding a silver ingot and there’s no way they’d be willing to sell her now…”
