Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 931: The ill fated Second princess

  " One thousand, two thousand …. Thirty … holy heavens! We made a profit of more than two thousand and thirty-six taels," Chen Mi counted the money they had made from selling the vegetables again and again as he was worried that he was making a mistake but no matter how many times he counted the numbers remained the same.          

    

He could not control his excitement as he looked at Yu Dong and asked, " Wife! Did I count correctly? How can we make so much money in a day? Did we really sell vegetables for more than two thousand taels and that too in just a day ?! Then what kind of profits we will make in a month? This sum of money is something that commoners like us can't even think of earning!"     

Even Ye Liu was looking at the silver taels with a fervent look in his eyes, it was as if the box which Chen Mi was holding was not a box filled with money but his own child. However, Ye Liu couldn't be blamed for reacting as such, in the past he was sold off a small sum of thirsty taels but now he was seeing more than a thousand taels!

Fang Chi cupped his mouth as if he was holding himself back from screaming out loud. A furious red blush coated his cheeks as he was too excited, he looked at the silver taels and then turned to look at Yu Dong as if waiting for her to confirm that all these taels truly belonged to their family.      The source of this content is ɴo(v)elFɪre.net

Seeing the mers reacting like this, Yu Dong was both amused and helpless. She looked at their excited expressions and said, " You all don't need to react like this, this sum truly belongs to us and no one else. Have you forgotten we brought more than a few hundred catties of each vegetable and we sold almost everything off, how can we not have this much money? Even though we gave a few as free samples it was not to the point where we will make a loss."      

Chen Mi still could not believe that their family was now able to earn such a big sum of money. He turned to look at the box of silver and then thought of the law which was passed down by the Empress and muttered, " I hope that Brother Li will give birth to a daughter."      

He did not wish to see all of their properties which they have grown with the help of their blood, sweat and tears to fall into the pockets of the imperial family. Even if he was killed, his soul will still be not able to move on if the properties went inside the pockets of the official! This was their money!      

" Now, there is no need for you to pressurize, Li," Yu Dong was speechless when she saw that Chen Mi was getting anxious already.  " We will try our best but what's going to come will come, there is no point in worrying about a broken bridge that we have to cross sometimes in the future."      

" Then we should hide our wealth well," said Chen Mi as he handed the box to Yu Dong and said, " Hide it all well, we should not show it off to others."      

" Yes, Yes, I understand," said Yu Dong as she placed the box of money inside her space but soon she paused and then turned to look around when she saw a woman standing in front of their shop. " Can we help you?"      

The woman was dressed in a cloak, and half of her face was covered in bandages as she gazed upon Xian Lei before turning to look at Yu Dong.

" I would like to buy some vegetables as well, Miss," said the Xian Zhenya as she glanced at her daughter who seemed to be getting better. Her eyes were filled with relief and some of the weight which was resting on her shoulders seemed to have eased up a lot.     

As she was chased out of the palace, her elder sister cleaned up the palace thoroughly making all the subordinates and officials who were supporting Xian Zhenya run away and hide, currently, the capital was in turmoil and her health was not in good condition since she had been attacked more than ten times before she came to hide in this small town.      

Though Xian Xieren's women were hiding in the shadows waiting for her to make a move because Magistrate Li was keeping a check on them, they couldn't do much harm to Xian Zhenya but only for the time being.     

"M——" Xian Lei knew that the woman in front of her was her mother, she wanted to ask whether or not her father was all right and concubine Xiao who was poisoned before they left the palace. As concubine Xiao wanted to save her, he took a poisoned blade in his back —— and because they were in a hurry to leave, the poor concubine mer did not receive any treatment till they reached this small town where she fell sick.     

" Little Miss, I would like three eggplants," but before Xian Lei could call her mother, Xian Zhenya stopped her. Currently, she was living in danger all the time, how can she bring her daughter with her? If this young woman was to find out that Xian Lei was her daughter, she will definitely ask her to take Xian Lei away which she couldn't do for the time being.      

Nor could she tell Xian Lei that both her father, as well as concubine Xiao, were in a severe situation. She had been trying to bring doctors to treat them but the women who were sent after her were keeping an eye on all the doctors of the town, including the Li family's doctor, if she was to go bring a doctor then she would surely give herself away which was why Xian Zhenya could only bring some medicines to elongate the staggering lives of her husbands.      

At least this family was treating Xian Lei well, from the looks of it the poison which caused Xian Lei to fall unconscious seemed to have been treated completely.
