PWDLAW Chapter 414: Seeking Reconciliation

 Chapter 414: Seeking Reconciliation

Although she learned that Ye Muyu used the mountain peppers to make fresh dishes, it didn't change much for Wang. Ye Muyu made a considerable amount of fresh dishes but they were not often sold. This time, the fresh dishes were made mainly for family consumption and as a result planting the mountain pepper tree wouldn't bring much profit. In the end, the tree might only be valuable for its trunk after many years.


So, she regarded Ye Muyu's planting of mountain pepper trees as a form of amusement and had no intention of spending silver to buy them.


As for Sun Shi, she simply didn't have much silver. The second family's usual income came from farming and the silver earned from selling medicinal herbs this year had already been saved for sending the children to school. As a result, there wasn't much disposable money left.


Even if Sun Shi wanted to buy, she felt reluctant due to the tight budget. After Kong Shi left, Sun Shi frowned and asked Wang "What exactly did you say just now? Tell me everything."


Wang explained Chu Xueqin's words and the attitude of Chu An.


"Sigh, it's hard work. This matter is considered resolved now. Our family doesn't have much silver but it's enough for our daily needs." Sun Shi sighed. "But doing business is never easy. If we can't do business, we might as well continue farming. The silver earned from making Zhuge locks can still support us."


"You go about your business. Don't worry about what your Fourth Aunt said."


Kong Shi wanted some face and Sun Shi was well aware of it. However, since the other party was confident in saying that, their family must have earned some silver.


Unfortunately, in their family, except for the dowry brought by the second daughter-in-law, they had always lived off the land and couldn't save much silver.


However, this was all relative to the Chu family members.


In fact, in the village the second family's land was not considered small.


At least, they didn't have to worry about food and clothing.


It's just that raising a scholar required quite a bit of expenditure.


That's why the second family was living so frugally.


Returning to the main topic.


Chu Xueqin finally bought the remaining twenty-five mountain pepper tree saplings.


After thinking for a moment, Luchuan said to the three people, "Madam said that if you still need to buy saplings, you can talk to me during this period. If you need a large quantity, we can arrange for another delivery."


All three nodded in agreement, but none of them said more. Because if they needed to plant more, it would be a family decision.


"Three masters, Madam has asked these laborers to help plant your trees. Please choose a piece of land as soon as possible and plant the saplings to avoid them dying."


When Chu An heard this, he quickly refused, "No need, how can we trouble our little sister again."


It's not surprising that Chu An refused so quickly. Seeing the surprise in Chu Lin and Chu Xueqin's eyes, he knew that he had been too polite. He felt a bit helpless.


What could he do? His mother offended Ye Muyu.


He just wanted to reconcile the relationship between the two sides and naturally he didn't want to give Ye Muyu a bad impression of himself. Moreover, where would he be willing to take advantage again?


Speaking of which, he was also afraid of offending Ye Muyu again.


Chu Lin and Chu Xueqin were much more natural.


Chu Lin said, "No need. I can see that Third Brother's part of the Chai Mountain will probably be planted with quite a few trees. Just planting a dozen or so trees will be done in half an hour."


"I bought five trees for my family and I plan to plant them in front of the house. It will be convenient for picking vegetables next year since they are edible."


"Then I'll have someone use a mule cart to help Big Master send them back." Luchuan compromised.


Chu Lin didn't refuse this time. The mules at home were let out to graze and when they were brought back, they would be harnessed to a wooden cart to transport the saplings. He was afraid it would take until the hottest time of the day. By then, the saplings might be tortured to death.
