“You should have said that earlier, she’s gone far away now. However, she just mentioned that she sells fern at the Vegetable Market, so you can definitely find her there when you go.”

Chen Ershuan also planned to look for her when he had time.

A man not far behind his vendor stall was now walking towards the carriage on the street corner. The man was Jin Xun’s follower, who was ordered by his master just now to check on the squatting point. “Young Master, I’m afraid I’d be spotted, so I kept my distance. I saw the umbrella vendor give Su Qingyue money, about 100 copper coins in total.”

Jin Xun realized his guess was correct, and Su Qingyue was helping with the umbrella business so hard just to take a kickback. “Interesting. If she can entertain people every day, I don’t mind paying her the ‘exhibition’ fee she mentioned.”

“Young Master, what did you just say?” The follower didn’t quite catch it.

“Nothing, let’s go back to Drunken Immortal Pavilion.”

“Yes…”

Su Qingyue took a cow’s car back to Wushan Village. Along the way, she saw several villagers carrying fern from the mountain. Some of their carrying poles were full, and some had only half a basket.

She had made money selling fern in the past few days, and the villagers knew it. So they all went looking for fern.

Moreover, people were always asking her how to get rid of the astringent taste when stir-frying tasty fern.

Some even directly sold stir-fried fern at the town Vegetable Market, but because it tasted astringent, not many people bought it. However, seeing her make money, they all went to pick fern and tried to fry it without the bitter taste.

The villagers resting under the tree by the roadside saw Su Qingyue returning to the village, and Wang Qigu, one of them, said sourly, “Wow! The wife of the Xiao Family has chartered a car again? That’s generous, she’s so rich! I can’t even afford to sit on a cow’s car.”

Another villager, who had secretly asked Qingyue for her stir-fried fern recipe, bore a grudge when she refused to divulge it. “What money does she have? She just sold stir-fried fern for a few days and made several taels of silver. The Xiao Family doesn’t even have fields. It’s just a few taels, what’s so amazing about it?”

Auntie Hua chimed in, “Well, you’re wrong about that. Su Qingyue is so capable that she can earn several taels in just a few days. Most families can’t even earn that much in a year!”

“That’s right. I saw her selling stir-fried fern at the Vegetable Market for four cents per jin. In less than half a day, she could sell a whole carrying pole, which is over a hundred jin. She could make close to 1 tael a day. If she sells it for a month, a year, she’s going to make a fortune! There’s no need to worry about not having money to buy fields.” Aunt Liu spoke up. “Wife of the Xiao Family, we’re all from the same village. How did you get rid of the astringent taste in your fried fern? Tell us so that everyone can know, and don’t keep it to yourself.”

Su Qingyue laughed, “I’ll tell the truth, I won’t share it. If you have the ability, try it yourself.”

“How stingy…” Wang Qi was very unhappy. “How about I give you some money to buy the recipe…”

“How much are you going to give?” She arched an eyebrow.

“I’ll give you… ten cents.”

“You’re really ‘generous’.” From afar, Wang Cuihua saw Su Qingyue on the cow’s car and came over. “Qingyue makes nearly a tael a day, and you have the nerve to offer ten cents to buy the recipe…”

Su Qingyue saw Wang Cuihua and asked Wang Crippled to stop the cow’s car.

Although Wang Crippled also had the surname Wang, Cuihua was married to Zhou Fuquan’s family from a neighboring village and had no relation to Wang Crippled’s family.

There were many people with the same surname in the village.

Those who were resting just now were far away. Close up, they could see Su Qingyue’s face, and they were almost shaking their heads.

“Wife of the Xiao Family, why does your face look so much worse than before?” Wang Qigu was taken aback.
