Farmer Lady of Fortune, Imperial Concubine, Don't Be Too Sweet

Chapter 43

Her little hand grabbed a silver ingot, and bit it with her millet teeth, aaaaah: "Grandma, look! This silver is real! Can you relax now? We've sold all our wine. It's real, not a dream."

"You devilish girl. You're just like your grandfather, poking fun at me!"

"Hahaha!" The family cooed and laughed, their laughter sour at the same time.

They were the only ones who knew what they had been through this period of time.

They've been uneasy and sleepless, not just in fear fear of losing money, but also in fear that the dream they've been holding on to would be shattered.

Fearing the blow and failure that would result from their family's hard work.

Wiping the corner of her eyes with a trace, Grandma Liu picked up the silver banknote and scrutinized it under the light: "I have lived most of my life, but it's still the first time I've seen a banknote. So it actually looked like this."

Liu Erlin chuckled: "We're glad that Nannan tagged along this time. She was the one who asked for a deposit from the Young Boss. Otherwise, Big brother and I, we poor clods, wouldn't have thought about it! Nannan is the biggest contributor to the success of this sale!"

"What exactly has happened? Tell us!"

When it came to storytelling, Liu Erlin was invigorated, adding oil and vinegar to the process which he heard from his elder brother. He spoke so eloquently and dazzled the family.

At times, peals of laughter erupted in the hall.

When Liu Zhixia and Liu Zhiqiu came back from the school, they saw a lot of people sneaking around in front of their house, frequently craning their necks to look into their yard.

When the brothers entered the house, Liu Erlin has just finished his storytelling.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Father, Mother, why are there so many people in front of our house? What's going on?"

"Is it because Dad went out with Uncle to sell wine today and failed?"

The brothers both spoke out at the same time.

"Little brat, don't you have confidence in me?" Liu Erlin laughed and scolded Liu Zhiqiu, "Anyway, from now on, our family won't have to worry about your stipends!"

The two boys looked at each other and suddenly burst into cheers.

It was sold!

Their family's wine was bought! Finally, their parents didn't have to worry secretly!

They could also study in peace!

After cheering, they both ran towards Liu Yusheng and worked together to carry her up, "Nannan, you're wonderful!"

"Gegege!" The crisp laughter of the little toddler, mingling with the cheers of the boys, escaped from the hall and out into the courtyard.

The people strolling outside immediately shut up and perked their ears up, then talked it over.

"They're so happy. Things must have worked out!"

"Definitely. I vaguely heard Nannan saying in front of the house that it was sold out. I didn't hear it clearly, so I dare not drop in for a visit."

"Aigoo, it's sold out. So why are we still here worrying? Let's go, go in! Let's ask Old Chap Liu for a drink!"

Bangbang – The courtyard door was immediately slammed, "Brother Liu, Liu Dalin, open the door! You're hiding in the house and having fun by yourselves!"

Fortunately, they've stayed worrying outside for long before dropping in.

Otherwise, the Liu family would think they came to make fun of them when their business failed.

But their worries were in vain. The family was joyful!

In the house, they heard the voice of Grandpa Liu laughing and scolding, "Do you guys give congratulations likes this? If I didn't know, I would have thought you came to the door to collect debts!"

Liu Dalin gathered the silver banknote and silver ingots together and pushed them in front of Grandma Liu, "Mother, keep these away. Don't let anyone see them."

"Okay, I'll put them away for now. We'll total it up when all the wine in the house is sold."

The two daughters-in-law, Chen Xiulan and Du Juan, have no objections, feeling no jealousy or complaints, now that the family has a lot of money. Both parents wouldn't mistreat them badly as daughters-in-law.

Compared to other families, they were blessed to have married into the Liu family.

Only after Grandma Liu hid the money and banknote did Grandpa Liu pat his trousers' legs and went to open the door.

"If you bang again, my gate will be broken. You'll have to pay for it!"

"Hey old chap, isn't it because we're worried about you so we stayed outside the door and wandered around? Did you think we're all idle!" The people outside weren't deterred and yelled back.

Once the gate was opened, a large crowd of people hooting and hollering squeezed in with eyes shining and fired up for gossip.
