“Then a hundred servings.” Jin Xun readily agreed.

As Su Qingyue was nibbling on the pastry, it tasted nice, but she did not want to eat to the point of throwing up, “Having a hundred servings would be too inconvenient. Maybe it would be better to give me the cash equivalent.”

Jin Xun paused for a moment, “Alright, then cash it is.” He turned to the servant, Ji, “What’s the price per serving if we were to sell these cakes?”

“My Lord, this osmanthus cake is a special product of our Drunken Immortal Pavilion, ordinary people can’t afford it, it is mainly sold for the enjoyment of wealthy families. It costs one tael of silver per serving.” Ji responded carefully, “If you buy a hundred servings, you can get an internal discount, which is a 20% discount.”

“So, that’s equivalent to eighty taels of silver.” Jin Xun said, as he turned to Su Qingyue, “Miss Su, since you were not interested in the five thousand taels, I suppose you wouldn’t want the eighty?”

Of course, she wanted it! Eighty taels were quite a bit, even eight taels would be something! Su Qingyue laughed awkwardly, “I don’t want to accept it. But you, Boss Jin, a big boss, I helped you recover the loss of 5000 taels. If I do not take your gift, I’m afraid you would feel bad. So, to save you the trouble, I’ll accept it.”

“I see.” Jin Xun nodded, “So, we’ve put Miss Su in a difficult situation.” He instructed Ji, “Later, let the accountant’s room give Miss Su eighty taels of silver. And arrange a sedan chair to send Miss Su home.”

“Just give me the money.” Su Qingyue hurriedly said, “Don’t worry about the sedan chair. Wushan Village is far from here and it takes two hours to walk. I’m afraid that the sedan chair carriers from your house would be exhausted after carrying for two hours.”

“That’s alright, Miss Su, you’re so considerate towards servants.” Jin Xun kindly suggested, “How about changing it to a carriage?”

“Still, no thanks.” She initially wanted to ask for cash again. The carriage ride would cost dozens of copper coins, which was too depreciating, so she decided not to take it, “As a member of a poor family, we are used to poverty. A cart ride in the village is more comfortable. Thank you for your trouble.”

“Then alright.” Jin Xun did not insist, “Miss Su, shall you and Fourth Young Master Xiao have lunch before leaving? I have something else to deal with, so I can’t join you, but I would definitely order the chef to prepare some good dishes to serve you.”

She also wanted to ask to be paid for the meals in cash. But glancing at her fourth brother, it was not a big deal for her to lose face, but she didn’t want to embarrass fourth brother.

Clearly, Jin Xun intended to see her off with these words. Su Qingyue took the hint and said, “No need to cause trouble. My fourth brother and I have something to do at home, we’ll take our leave.”

With that, Su Qingyue lifted up Xiao Qinghe, helped him down the steps, and let him sit in the wheelchair.

Xiao Qinghe could feel Jin Xun’s gaze constantly on his wife.

As a man, he could tell that Jin Xun was quite fond of his wife.

Jin Xun also came out of the pavilion, “Miss Su, I have been a merchant for many years, and have seen countless greedy people. Miss Su, you are so selfless and honest, not even swayed by the huge amount of five thousand taels. I fear there aren’t many like you in this world nowadays. Allow me to express my respect for you once again!”

Three lines appeared on Su Qingyue’s forehead. Can she have the money instead of the respect?

The thought of having five thousand taels in her grasp lingered in her mind.

She once had it, but it can’t last forever.

Her heart was beating so violently it felt as if it was going to burst out of her chest.

What is meant by a single mistake causing lifelong regret, she now fully understood.

She tilted her head up to look at the bright sun.

She couldn’t help but lament, “Life is obviously driven by money, this hatred has nothing to do with wind or moon.”

Jin Xun burst into laughter at what she said, deeply feeling her inner pain and regret, “Miss Su is indeed a cultured person. I knew you could read, but I didn’t expect you could compose poetry.”
