Although he was reluctant, he still went back. Before leaving, he discussed with Su Muyao and asked her to help ask for help in buying these fruits in the village at a high price.

Su Muyao agreed immediately. She had several fruit trees at home, and most importantly, she had a lot of them in her own space.

Even if these villagers do not agree to sell, it will be enough for me to take some out from the space when the time comes.

Only then did Li Yuanyuan feel satisfied and followed Wanqiu back.

Today, the little kids just happened to have a day off, so Su Muyao took her brothers to ask every household about picking the fruits, and every household agreed.

After all, no matter how delicious the fruit is, it is not as important as the money, and I heard that it is sold at a high price.

Every household was very happy.

Su Muyao and her brothers ran around the village. The hands and arms of these young men, as well as their cross-body bags, were filled to the brim with stuff.

After I came back and finished lunch, an uninvited guest came to my house.

The person who came first looked for Old Lady Su. This person was from Old Lady Su's former family.

The reason why I said it was in the past is because her parents had a falling out with the first wife when Old Mrs. Su was still young.

Old Mrs. Su’s grandparents were partial to each other and gave all the good things to the eldest wife. When the family was divided, they directly kicked their family out.

At that time, nothing was given. All the money and land in the family were given to the first wife.

Originally, Mrs. Su's parents thought about dividing up the family business and temporarily living in a thatched house in the village. They believed that they would not starve to death with their own hands, but they never expected that the locusts would come and destroy all the crops.

Then there were successive years of drought, and eventually everyone fled.

Old Mrs. Su was not originally from this town. She fled famine and later settled here.

Fortunately, at that time, Mrs. Su’s grandparents were afraid that Mrs. Su’s family would rely on them, so they signed a severance letter.

Later, when fleeing from famine, Su Laotai's mother starved herself to death in order to save food for Su Laotai. The eldest family, who were guarding the food, watched Su Laotai's mother starve to death.

Later, they fled here to escape famine, and Mrs. Su's father barely raised her by carrying goods at the dock.

Later, Old Mrs. Su met the current Old Man Su and married him. Not long after that, Old Mrs. Su's father died of tuberculosis.

Old Mrs. Su had never had any contact with the first wife's family for decades, and she never expected that someone from there would come to visit her today.

The man who came was of the same generation as Old Lady Su, and if the relationship was not severed, Old Lady Su would have to call him cousin.

"Cousin, why haven't you come back to your parents' home to see us in all these years?" The person who spoke looked not much older than Old Mrs. Su.

The man was supported by two men on each side, who looked to be in their 30s.

I think they must be his two sons.

"We broke off our relationship a few years ago, so I don't deserve to be called cousin."

"What you said is not right. Those are all the stupid things of the previous generation. After all, the bones and tendons are connected, how can they be broken just like that?"

Old Mrs. Su really didn't want to deal with the person in front of her, so she asked directly, "I wonder what brings you here all the way here?"

The old man in front of him rolled his eyes. He had originally wanted to ask for their braised pork recipe in the name of family affection. But it seemed that it was not going to work.

"Cousin, I heard that your family has a good business selling braised meat in the town. I want to spend some money to buy your recipe and sell it somewhere else. It will definitely not steal your business. We don't sell it in this town."

The man who was supporting his father suddenly said, "Yes, aunt, we are all family and you can only do business in town anyway.

We can't go far, and we can spend some money to buy the recipe, so you have an extra benefit."

Su Muyao was listening at the side and smacking her lips so hard that the abacus beads even bounced onto her face.

Then the youngest son next to the old man asked: "Aunt, does your family have any other recipes? We can buy them together when the time comes. We are all family, so just give some as a token of our appreciation. When we make money in the future, we can visit each other often, and then we can honor you together."

"Yes, aunt, when the time comes, my younger brother and I will honor you together and treat you like our own mother."

Su Muyao went up to her grandmother and hugged her legs. "My grandmother has my father and uncles to take care of her. Who are you? How dare you come and snatch my grandmother?"

When these words were spoken, the two men who were just feeling moved by themselves suddenly felt that what they said was inappropriate. The other woman already had a son, so it was not their turn to be filial to her.

Old Mrs. Su hugged the little boy in her arms and looked at her nominal cousin with great pride.

"You heard me, right? I have so many sons, how can I expect outsiders to honor me?"

Su Muyao asked the visitor directly, "I wonder how much grandpa is willing to pay for my recipe."

"Oh my, this must be the little girl from the third brother's family. She's so pretty."

When the old man came, he had already found out about the situation of Old Su's family. He also knew that the third son's family had a little girl, who was the lucky star of Taoliu Village and was said to be very cute. He thought that this was the baby in front of him.

Turning to Old Lady Su, he said, "You know that we farmers don't have much money. This time I brought two taels of silver, basically all the money I have at home. If you think it's feasible, I'll give you some extra money when you make some money."

Old Lady Su sneered without giving any face: "You want to buy my prescription for two taels of silver? Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

"Cousin, then please decide how much is suitable and I will go back and get the money together."

Su Muyao leaned over to her grandmother's ear and whispered a hundred taels.

"For your sake, I'll just give you one hundred taels. I don't want more."

The old man's eldest son next to him screamed out in surprise, "What one hundred taels?"

The old man also felt that Old Lady Su was asking for too much.

But thinking that the recipe was indeed very profitable, it was normal to ask for one hundred taels. After all, I heard that the old Su family could sell several taels of silver a day in the town, so the one hundred taels could be earned back in two or three months.

But his family only had more than ten taels of silver in total, so he certainly couldn't afford a hundred taels.

"My cousin, we are all family, you don't need to worry about the 100 taels of silver. I heard that you earn a few taels of silver a day in town."

"Yes, aunt, if we had a hundred taels of silver, we wouldn't have to do business, right?"

"So what do you mean you want to come here and get something for nothing?

Well, I won't say any more. I have a lot of work to do today. Let's talk about it when you can gather a hundred taels of silver."

Old Lady Su ordered them to leave immediately. Although they wanted to discuss it further, the old lady in front of them was adamant and would not agree to anything less than 100 taels.

Several people could only return disappointed.

Only after the few people left did Old Mrs. Su let out a long sigh.

He touched his granddaughter's crooked little finger in his arms, pulled it off and tied it up again.

"My dear, did you have fun playing with the county magistrate's daughter today?"
