Chapter 695 - 695 Not Selling To Your Family695 Not Selling To Your Family
“I brought these over from the capital. They’re a new variety! They can be harvested before winter if you plant them now. Moreover, the yield is 50% higher than our local old variety!” Qiao Mei said.
“Really! Then how much do you have? I want to buy it!” Auntie Dong said readily.
“Auntie Dong, this is a new variety. If it’s not suitable for our land, won’t you lose money? Besides, it’s much more expensive than our local seeds,” Qiao Mei said awkwardly.
Auntie Dong did not think too much about it. When Qiao Mei first started growing bean sprouts, she believed that she would definitely be able to earn a lot of money by following Qiao Mei. During that time, her family made the most money in the village.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow that Qiao Mei wanted to grow melon seeds, she had to trust Qiao Mei again. Since Qiao Mei came to look for her, she would trust that Qiao Mei was here to make her rich!
“Just tell me how much for a catty,” Auntie Dong said.
“I carried this all back from the capital myself. I’ll sell you at cost. It’s 50 cents,” Qiao Mei said.
Auntie Dong’s heart skipped a beat. She had thought that it would maybe cost 30 cents and did not expect it to be 50 cents. However, these are things where you got what you paid for. If she bought the melon seeds now and planted them earlier, she would be able to harvest them earlier. Otherwise, if it really snowed, she would have planted them for nothing.
“I’ll take four catties! I don’t have much land at home, so I’ll try to grow four catties first. I’ll go get money for you!” Auntie Dong went into the house to get money for Qiao Mei without any hesitation.
This was also within Qiao Mei’s expectations. After Auntie Dong bought the seeds, everyone in the village knew about it. The few women who were closer to Qiao Mei all heard the news and went to buy seeds from her.
They did not care about how expensive the seeds were. As long as Qiao Mei was the seller, she must be helping them to earn money.
Even if they were to lose money, it would be because they did not put in enough effort to take care of the seeds. Anyway, it was impossible for them to plant any vegetables by this season. When it snowed in winter and the land became covered by heavy snow, everything they planted would be finished.
In the end, almost everyone in the village came to look for Qiao Mei to buy seeds, except for Qiao Zhuang’s family.
By the time Qiao Zhuang’s family rushed over after hearing the news, the seeds were already sold out and there were none left for Qiao Zhuang’s family.
“I think that wretched girl Qiao Mei does it on purpose! Why is it that the entire village has seeds, but our family doesn’t!” Wang Qin said angrily.
“Why are you shouting? If not for you, would our family have ended up like this?” Qiao Zhuang said sulkily.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter the open meeting, no one in the entire village took him seriously anymore. This “village tyrant” had a reputation that was not real.
Wang Qin’s job in the village office was not going well either. After He Ning gave her the rental fees for these two days, she immediately went to put the money back into the accounts.
“Father, if our family doesn’t vent our anger, won’t we always be bullied by Qiao Mei?” Wang Qin whispered.
“It’s more than being bullied! If not for your lousy idea, Qiao Yu would have marry into that family long ago! Why would we have to return the betrothal gifts to the family! I even have to compensate the matchmaker with an amount of money equivalent to the price of a pig’s head. It’s all your lousy idea!” Qiao Zhuang said as he pointed at Wang Qin.
Wang Qin hid at the side and did not make a sound. Now that the eldest daughter-in-law, Liu Ying, had run away, there were only Jiang Ye and Qiao Yu doing housework at home. It was impossible for the two of them to take care of such a big family.
Shen Ge already could not take care of her children now. Ever since Qiao Yu could not marry into the Guo family, Shen Ge had been locked up in the room and beaten up every day. They did not care as long as she did not get beaten to death.
“That’s right. I’m so tired every day. Second Sister-in-law, Eldest Sister-in-law is not at home now. You should help out with some chores,” Jiang Ye said unhappily.
Although Qiao Zhuang was an asshole, his second and third sons doted on their own wives. Qiao Wang, who did not have much say at home, also chimed in, “That’s right, Second Sister-in-law. You’re all daughters-in-law of the family. My wife can’t take care of so many things by herself. What if she’s too slow for Father?”
Qiao Wang was quite smart. With just a few words, he pushed all the responsibility to Wang Qin. It was not Jiang Ye’s fault for not taking good care of the family, but it was because of Wang Qin’s inaction.
As expected, Qiao Zhuang became even angrier. It was an embarrassment for him to have to return the betrothal gifts that he had received. When he was young, he was always in the limelight. Now that he was old, it seemed like anyone could bully him.
