When Ye Ling returned to the room, he was still in a state of shock.
Upon seeing this, Liu Duo stretched out her hand and lightly tapped on his forehead. “Ling, why are you spacing out? Quickly take off your clothes and go to bed. We have a lot to do tomorrow.”
When the villager who chopped the bamboo had gone home, he told his children to go to the bamboo forest and dig for bamboo shoots. When the other villagers had learned of this, one after another, they also went to dig for bamboo shoots. They had only brought over about a dozen jins that day, and there might be more the next day…
“Oh.” Ye Ling nodded dumbfoundedly. He began to take off his clothes and then went to bed.
Once they got into bed, Liu Duo hugged Ye Ling’s waist, closed her eyes, and began to sleep. It was like hugging a huge, stuffed doll.
The next day, Ye Liu went to look for Li Wazi very early in the morning so they could go together and officially announce they were buying bamboo shoots. Once they started, the neighboring villagers also went to spread the word.
In a flash, the day of Ye Lanlan’s marriage arrived. And as Ye Liu said, Ye Yang and the others really didn’t go to their wedding banquet. Instead, they went and did their own things.
They had bought a lot of bamboo shoots in the previous few days. They were able to buy about a hundred jins of the tender, inner shoots that had already had their old, outer skin removed. Ye Liu and the others also went to town quite a few times to sell them.
They had already sold them once, a month ago, so they didn’t need to shout to sell them again. Those who had bought them before knew they were delicious, so they would naturally come to buy them again. And naturally, the business would do extremely well.
And all the restaurants in town would buy the processed non-bitter bamboo shoots from them!
Ye Yang and the others were in the yard and processing the bamboo shoots that still hadn’t had their old, outer skin removed. Li Wazi’s mother and wife were also helping. After all, Liu Duo had brought him along to earn money, so they should also contribute, right?
Liu Duo sat in the rocking chair at the side and was holding Li Wazi’s son, Little Huzi. Ye Yang and the others didn’t allow her to work and asked her to record the transactions of the bamboo shoots. They didn’t want to tire her.
Liu Duo suddenly screamed aloud, “Ah, Little Huzi peed on me. Naughty baby.”
When Little Lian heard her, she immediately washed her hands, went over, and took Little Huzi.
Those past few days, they had become more familiar with each other, so Liu Duo had asked Little Lian to call her Sister Duo. Calling her sister-in-law made her sound old. This made her seem older than Little Lian, but Liu Duo was actually younger than her.
Little Lian was already nineteen years old. She married late, because she was blind in one eye. She had been married to Li Wazi for about a year. She was a pretty girl from a humble family; it was just her eyes that were a bit unfortunate, and her skin was also a bit dark and yellowish.
However, Liu Duo felt she was very gentle and was similar to Ye Ling. She had a disposition that made people like her.
“Okay, you hold this naughty baby for a while first.” Liu Duo poked Little Huzi’s fat little nose and went upstairs.
Grandma Ye frowned and started to curse softly when she saw that Ye Yang and the others still hadn’t come after such a long time.
A villager, who had gone to congratulate them, saw her and smiled, “Madam Ye, those grandsons of yours, who live in that big house, won’t be coming. They are busy earning money.”
“Yeah, they earned a lot these past few days…”
Once they started talking about this, a lot of the other guests at the wedding banquet also started to talk about it.
When Grandma Ye heard them, she frowned so heavily that she could have killed a mosquito. She had been busy with Ye Lanlan’s marriage and hadn’t paid attention to what was happening. She only knew that a lot of villagers had gone to dig up bamboo shoots in their free time.
Ye Xuan had learned about this long ago and guessed that Liu Duo and the others wouldn’t come. That was why he had stayed in the house and not come out. He would wait until the meal was over and then go out to look for Liu Duo.
