Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 73 - Earn Money_1

“Uh…thirteen taels, six coins and eight fen…”

“Uncle Zhou, your share for today should be two taels, seven coins and four fen of silver…” Before Zhou Laowu could figure it out, Cai Wei said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Laowu was overjoyed, “Oh my, amazing, over two taels!

We’ve really struck it rich!” He called out to his son, “Jiujin, did you hear that?

Caiwei said we made over two taels of silver today!

We never used to make that much even in a whole month, hehe…”

Jiujin grinned and said softly, “All thanks to Sister Wei’er’s efforts…”

Cai Wei was also satisfied.

Although on the surface, she only received a little over five taels of silver, what she actually got was far beyond that.

Today, the cabbage in the inn sold extremely well.

A plate of cold cucumber salad sold for forty copper coins, and over thirty plates were sold today.

Plus, leaf mustard and cabbage, which can be roasted for consumption, sold even better.

Just these two items brought in three to four taels of silver!

And all of this was made without spending a single penny on cost!

…

After closing shop, Cai Wei returned to the backyard.

Before she could enter the house, she heard laughter from inside.

As soon as she stepped in, a warm atmosphere washed over her, like it was springtime.

She shook off the snow on her feet and went straight to her mother’s main room.

Even though everyone had their own rooms now, they still preferred to gather in their mother’s room when they were awake.

In the main room, their mother was squatting by the bathtub giving Wen’er and Wu’er a bath.

The two little ones were sitting in the tub, their big eyes reminiscent of black grapes, with only their fluffy little heads exposed, looking like two little wet ducklings, incredibly cute.

As soon as Cai Wei entered the room, her mother immediately stood up, shaking off the water from her hands and asked, “Why are you back so late?

Have you had dinner?”

Seeing her mother about to head out, Cai Wei quickly said, “Don’t trouble yourself, I have already eaten at the restaurant, I’m full!”

Lady Du glanced at her stomach as if to confirm whether she had eaten enough.

Feeling her mother’s gaze, warmth filled Cai Wei’s heart.

She softly laughed and said, “Look at you, not trusting me.

Would I joke about my own health?”

With a hmph, Lady Du responded: “I don’t remember who it was a few days ago, who didn’t care about her own health and was almost starved to death.”

Cai Wei was speechless.

If the previous Mu Caiwei had cared about her own well-being, how could she have ended up here?

Thinking this, she unintentionally lost herself in her thoughts.

“Hey!

Wei’er, Wei’er…”

Mother’s hand waved in front of her, complaining, “What’s on your mind?

You’ve got a blank look on your face again.”

Cai Wei came back to reality and laughed, “I was thinking about buying a few servants.

What do you think, Mother?”

As soon as Lady Du heard about buying people, her face slightly changed.

Just a couple of weeks ago, the family was so poor they could barely heat the pot, almost starving one of them.

Now, in the blink of an eye, they were ready to command servants.

She was really not used to this.

Seeing her mother silent, Cai Wei went on, “The business in the restaurant is doing extremely well.

We definitely need more hands.

Daughter thinks, since we need people anyway, why not buy a few indentured ones?

Like this, we can have peace of mind, right?”

Lady Du pondered for a while before saying, “That’s good as well.

Go ahead, but be careful when choosing the servants to buy.

We don’t want troublemakers who would only add to our problems at home.”

Cai Wei smiled and said, “Mother’s really thoughtful.

I will keep this in mind.

Tomorrow I will send someone to bring the tooth granny here.

Help me choose a few good ones!”

The mother and daughter continued discussing.

By that time, Mother had finished bathing Wu’er, took him out of the tub, and handed him to Cai Wei.

Cai Wei quickly wrapped him in a dry cotton cloth and gently wiped down his body.

Now, Wu’er was no longer as thin and yellow as when Cai Wei first arrived.

Although still not chubby, he was obviously much rounder and his little body had become whiter than before.

She didn’t know if it was because he was drinking Lingxi River water frequently, or because of the improved nutrition over the past few days.

After drying Wu’er, Cai Wei put him into Mother’s quilt.

Just then, Wen’er was also brought out by Mother, and Cai Wei hurried over and reached out to take him.

However, Wen’er bashfully lowered his head and hesitated, trying to use his short legs to cover his little private parts.

Seeing this, Cai Wei found it very amusing.

On usual days, this little guy always liked pretending to be grown-up as if he were a little adult.

It was rare to see him so shy.

Playfully, she walked over to her mother in a few steps, took him into her arms.

Wen’er was even more embarrassed.

His little face was as red as an apple.

He stuttered, “Older sister…Wen’er can do it himself…”

Cai Wei ignored him, kept wiping his body while saying, “Don’t clench your legs so tightly, or I can’t wipe for you…”

Wen’er stiffened his body and clenched his lips, refusing to speak or to relax his legs.

“Pop——”

Fei’er, who had been silently doing needlework on the side, couldn’t help laughing: “Older sister, Wen’er is just embarrassed!”

“Oh?

Really?

Let me see!”

Cai Wei pretended to be puzzled, lifted Wen’er high up and stared at his face, which turned as red as a rooster’s crest, as if trying to figure out why this was.

Being held in mid-air by his wicked older sister and having her intensely staring at him, Wen’er felt so embarrassed that he wished he could find a crevice to crawl into.

He just hung his head and used his small hands to cover his little private parts.

“Pop—— Hahaha——”

Cai Wei started laughing, bending over with laughter.

Fei’er also started laughing…

Wen’er was fed up and managed to break free from his evil older sister’s grasp.

He shot into Mother’s arms and started to make a fuss…

“Wuuu…Mother, sister is bullying me….”
