Chapter 8 - 8 7 All Troubles Stem from Poverty
?Chapter 8: Chapter 7 All Troubles Stem from Poverty Chapter 8: Chapter 7 All Troubles Stem from Poverty Ruo Shui cheerfully pushed the cart, following behind the woman, leaving Yang Qixiang and his wife on the street, consoling their daughter who was throwing a tantrum over the ripe persimmons that had seemed within reach yet flew away.
Ruo Shui helped move the persimmons into the back entrance of a majestic and imposing mansion.
The butler had already tried one of the persimmons, which turned out to be exceptionally sweet, juicy, and soft, very delicious; plus, they were large and had a good appearance too!
She hadn’t expected them to be this tasty!
Madam Liu would definitely be pleased when she saw them!
Thinking of the young master’s upcoming birthday feast, and the need to prepare various kinds of fruit, she asked, “Did you grow these persimmons yourselves? Do you have more? Do you have other types of fruit?”
Ruo Shui was about to deny it, but Ruo Xuan beat her to it, saying, “We do, there are still two baskets of persimmons, and we have dates too. Old lady, do you want to buy some?”
Ruo Shui: “…”
The dates at home weren’t even ripe yet!
The butler was thrilled to hear about the dates, “Are the dates ripe so early too?”
Ruo Shui hastily replied, “Each mountain has its season, ten miles could hold different weathers. We found these persimmons and dates in the deep mountains, we brought back the persimmons, but not the dates, and we don’t know if there are any left. The things in the mountains, well, anyone can pick them. If auntie wants them, we’ll look for them the next time we go into the mountains. If they are still there, we’ll pick and bring them to you.”
Ruo Xuan blinked her eyes, seeming to understand something.
When the butler heard that there wasn’t a certainty of having more, she was a bit disappointed, but she could understand, since things from the mountains are unpredictable, “Alright then! If you go into the mountains and find any good mountain produce, bring them here for me to see. If they’re good, I’ll buy them all! Do you still have two baskets of persimmons at home? Deliver them to me at this time tomorrow!”
