Chapter 73: Third Sister’s Generosity
CHAPTER 73: CHAPTER 73: THIRD SISTER’S GENEROSITY
"Two hundred coins per person." Li Yuzhu waved her hand, speaking grandly.
"Third Sister is generous!" The Second Young Master and Li Xing’an laughed heartily.
The Great Princess and the Second Princess were also beaming with joy.
Both of them were thinking about what good things to buy with the money.
It had been almost two months since anyone had seen even a single coin.
Back at the Prince Mansion, the money they spent on servants each day was more than two hundred coins.
But now, they were actually cheering for just two hundred coins.
The siblings sighed collectively.
Li Yuzhu found a less crowded spot and distributed the money to everyone.
Clutching the heavy coins, the siblings felt an immense sense of fulfillment in life.
Li Yuzhu took the opportunity to encourage them, "Big Sister, Second Sister, we just earned some money by casually digging some herbs. When we go back, we should be more diligent in collecting herbs so we can earn more money."
Holding the long-awaited money, the Great Princess and the Second Princess couldn’t wait to dig up a basket of herbs to sell.
The always proud Great Princess quickly said, "Third Sister, there’s no need for your reminder."
The Second Princess said with a smile, "You’re right, Third Sister, I want to gather more herbs to exchange for money to buy some food."
The Great Princess sneered, "All you think about is eating; you should buy some clothes instead."
The Second Princess looked at herself, "I have two sets of clothes; I don’t need to buy more."
The Great Princess replied, "..." There’s no talking sense into a foodie, preferring to wear old clothes just to indulge in eating?
"Ah, there’s also a bun shop here; I want to buy buns!" The Second Princess suddenly exclaimed with delight.
She quickly ran over to inquire about the prices.
The shopkeeper said, "One meat bun for one coin, two plain buns for one coin."
The price was the same as the one at the roadside shop.
The Second Princess bought three and joyfully ate them.
The Great Princess rolled her eyes at her.
Li Yuzhu used the remaining money to buy twenty buns and twenty plain buns.
The shopkeeper packed several large bags in paper bags.
Li Xing’an held the warm paper bags and placed them in the empty basket that once held herbs.
"These are for father, mother, and big brother; you’re not allowed to eat them," Li Yuzhu reminded everyone.
The Great Princess raised an eyebrow, "I have money now, so I’ll buy my own."
She took out two coins and bought two meat buns.
The Second Young Master and Li Xing’an each used their money to buy five buns.
They each gave one to Li Yuzhu.
The Great Princess glared at them jealously.
"Aren’t you buying buns?" Li Yuzhu noticed Mu Yuanxiu hadn’t bought any buns and asked him.
"I don’t like buns," Mu Yuanxiu said, an unusual emotion flickering in his eyes.
Li Yuzhu blinked, "Then why are you watching me eat?" Wasn’t he craving them?
Mu Yuanxiu, "..." He awkwardly shifted his gaze away.
"I made a big profit today, so it’s my treat." Li Yuzhu fished five coins out of her pocket and bought five buns, stuffing them into Mu Yuanxiu’s arms, "Take these; don’t be shy, we’re neighbors after all."
Having eaten other people’s rabbits and not yet returning the favor, she finally found an opportunity.
The Great Princess lengthened her face, secretly cursing, foolish girl, barely made some money and already wasting it on treats?
Mu Yuanxiu wanted to refuse, but Li Xing’an and the Second Young Master blocked him together, "Are you looking down on my sister? Take them!"
They instantly understood Li Yuzhu’s gesture as a repayment of a favor!
Mu Yuanxiu had no choice but to accept.
Li Yuzhu said, "Judging by the hour, Chai Family should be open by now; shall we go sell the rabbits?"
Selling the rabbits meant another sizable income.
Everyone was eagerly anticipating it.
The Great Princess kept urging everyone to walk faster.
