The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 46 - Making Money (1)_1

After a good while, a woman who looked like a steward came out, “Let me have a look at the goods first!”

“This wild pheasant was so scared it might run away, so we had to break its wings and legs,” Pei Qin showed her.

The stewardess was somewhat dissatisfied, “The wings are all bruised; even if we wanted to eat it, we couldn’t serve the whole bird.”

“Big sister!

You decide the price!

We’ve also got this special dish.

Would you like to try making a plate to taste?” Pei Qin was always generous and straightforward when it came to selling.

The stewardess, called ‘big sister’ and given the option to name her price, found it harder to be picky and asked to see this special dish.

Pei Qin showed her the peeled bamboo shoots, “Big sister!

If you decide to buy, I’ll teach you how to prepare it.

It’s guaranteed to be delicious!”

The stewardess picked one to inspect, “What is this dish?

It’s so white and plump; rather pleasing to look at!”

Lady Fang was honest to a fault and blurted out that they were bamboo shoots.

Pei Qin cut in before her, bluffing, “We’re also selling these for the first time.

We had a meal with them yesterday; they’re both crisp and delicious.

Not sure what to call them, but since they’re white and round, like sheep’s horns, let’s call them ‘Xuejian’.”

Hearing her description, which began so crudely and ended with such an elegant name, the stewardess took a longer glance at Pei Qin.

Pei Qin grinned, “Big sister!

Why not give it a taste?

During winter, with only cabbage and radishes to eat, it’s good to try something different, right?”

“I’ve never eaten or seen this before; it won’t cause any problems, will it?” The stewardess was in charge of the kitchen and wanted to try new dishes, but she couldn’t just serve anything without concern.

“We’ve been eating it for days now, and had some again just yesterday.

Do we look like we’ve had any problems?” Pei Qin finished, then added, “Just now, Landlord Zhang’s house saw them and already bought a few to try at home.

I told them we don’t have much left; they’d be gone soon, so I came here to ask first!”

San Ya couldn’t help but feel her cheeks burning with embarrassment.

Her sister…

was blatantly lying!

Si Ya tried several times to join in, “Big sister!

Why not taste it first?

Yesterday, we ate quite a few.

They were really delicious!”

“Yes!

Yes!” Lady Fang agreed, somewhat awkwardly.

Having always been the daughter of a Scholar and marrying a man who was also a Scholar, she had always lived above the common fray, only to be suddenly brought low and trampled upon for so many years, Lady Fang had become somewhat inept at conversation.

“Do you know how to make it?” The stewardess looked at Lady Fang.

In truth, Lady Fang didn’t know how to prepare it; they had just stuffed the bamboo shoots with pickles and ate them boiled the night before.

“I know how!” declared Pei Qin.

“Then come to the kitchen and make it for us.

If it’s as good as you say, we’ll buy it.”
