When the female supporting role has a beauty system
Chapter 583 Peasant Woman 11
Chapter 583 Peasant Woman 11
The little donkey looked only as big as an adult dog, and it snuggled up to the mother donkey, looking very pitiful. Tan You was always patient with the cubs, and he felt sympathy for them, so the Chen family got two more mounts.
However, one of them is still in its infancy, and it will probably take another year or two to put it to good use. Tan You is not in a hurry. Raising so many babies is the same as raising a little donkey, so this one is not a big deal.
Tan You sighed and patted the little donkey's head: "From now on, you will be called Xiaozao, and your mother will be called Dazao."
Including the frame at the back, Tan You spent a total of fifteen taels of silver. If it weren't for the fact that the donkey had just given birth and was injured, she would not have been able to buy it at this price.
When they came out of the horse market, only the youngest, Chen Xing, was sitting on the cart frame holding the little donkey, while the other four were all walking.
Tan You looked at Chen Yue and said, "If you are tired, take the donkey cart."
Chen Yue moved her legs: "Mother, I'm not tired. What if Dazao gets tired? If I walk a little longer, Dazao can rest a little longer."
Tan You stroked Dazao's head and said, "Okay, Dazao won't be that tired if he doesn't sit on someone else. Now we should go buy something else. What do you want to buy?"
Chen Xi counted the things that were available at home: "Mom, I don't want anything. We have everything at home."
An Wen was very sensible: "Aunt, I don't want anything either."
Chen Yue licked her lips: "Mother, I want to eat meat."
Chen Xi glared at Chen Yue: "We've been eating well recently, why are you always craving for meat?"
Chen Yue muttered, "It's all lean meat and greasy residue, and they're all stir-fried. Mom, I want to eat something braised."
Tan You: "It's not that I'm being harsh on you. It's just that you haven't had oily food for a long time. Suddenly, you can't handle the big fish and meat. It's easy to get stomach upset."
"Actually, I want to eat meat too. Let's go buy some meat."
As soon as Tan You spoke, Chen Xi stopped talking. Chen Yue wrinkled her nose at Chen Xi in a smug manner. Seeing this, Tan You patted Chen Yue on the forehead and said, "Mingguang is considering the family, not treating you harshly. We should be frugal in our daily lives."
Chen Yue held Chen Xi's hand: "Sister, I was wrong."
Chen Xi wasn't really angry. Now that Tan You was on her side, she just backed off: "I'm not angry. I just think it's not easy for mom to make money. We shouldn't spend money recklessly."
Tan You usually didn't intervene in conflicts between children, but when it came to major issues, Tan You would intervene forcefully. So she just watched the children talking while she walked slowly to the side holding Dazao's hand.
After buying pork fat and various parts of the pig at the pork stall, Tan You went home contentedly. Not only the children were craving for meat, but Tan You was also craving for it, okay?
In modern society, who doesn't eat meat every day? Even before she encountered the beauty system, Tan Deming would buy meat once a month. It's not like in ancient times, when people might not eat meat once a year.
In the past half month, Tan You has always used lean meat, from the initial soup to the later stir-fry. He doesn't dare to eat too greasy food, for fear of upset stomach.
Now that he has almost recovered, Tan You plans to have a good meal today.
When Tan You led the jujube back to the village, the whole Miaogou Village was in an uproar. The Chen family used to be the poorest family in the village, with only women and children left at home. Now she actually bought a donkey? And she bought two at once. Although the big one looked sick and the small one was not useful for the time being, a donkey is still a big animal. Looking at what Tan You and the children were wearing, everyone was envious.
You know, only the village chief's family has an ox cart, but the ox is old and the village chief is reluctant to use it and treasures it very much.
Countless people came to Lao Chen's house at once, almost half of the village came. Of course, they were mainly women soldiers, and the men, considering their status and gender differences, just stood outside the yard.
Faced with the inquiries from her aunts and uncles, Tan You said nothing. She only delivered some soap to Sihai Grocery in the morning. She had not signed a formal contract and had not even met the boss behind Sihai. Tan You was not in a hurry to let the clan know about the soap.
Therefore, Tan You just played Tai Chi with these aunts, talking a lot of nonsense but not saying a single useful word. Chen Xi and An Wen were just amazed when they heard it. It turned out that they could talk like this?
It was almost time for dinner, and everyone had to leave even if they didn't want to, when a horse-drawn carriage clattered into the village. The driver looked around and saw that the destination was clearly Old Chen's house.
"Madam Wang, is Madam Wang home?" Just as the villagers were about to leave, a voice rang out from outside the courtyard. An Wen's ears were sharp: "Aunt, it's Shopkeeper Fan's voice."
Tan You already knew who the visitor was, and she couldn't help but smile: "Everyone, I have guests today, and it's not convenient to entertain so many people, so I'll leave the clan leader and a few elders at home to accompany the guests."
The clan leader Chen Tianshui was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses: "Yes, yes, you all go back first, and we can talk later if there is anything."
The aunts and uncles didn't want to leave, and they were all hesitant. Tan You didn't care about them, and just led An Wen and Chen Xi out of the courtyard. As soon as they went out, they saw a man in his thirties getting off a carriage.
"Madam Wang, this is Mr. Xue from Sihai Grocery. He happened to be at the shop today. It's a pity that you walked too fast and we couldn't catch up with you."
As the middleman, Shopkeeper Fan first introduced the visitor to Tan You. Tan You looked at the visitor, and saw that he looked very noble in his attire.
"Mr. Xue, please come in. This is the leader of our Chen family, and these are the elders." Since Tan You stayed in the clan here, he naturally wanted to take advantage of the clan's power.
After all, she was alone and powerless. Even if the shopkeeper Fan was a good person, she had never really met Xue Guanglin. What if he took advantage of his power to seize her prescription?
The clan leader and the elders were puzzled, but they would not ruin Tan You's story at this time. To put it bluntly, the original owner was the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, and her affairs, if magnified, would become the affairs of the entire clan.
If there is anything, we can talk about it after the people leave, but now we should unite to face the outside world.
Xue Guanglin was also stunned when he saw so many people in the yard. He reacted very quickly: "It's a bad time for me to come. I didn't know that the lady was going to host a banquet today."
Tan You smiled and said, "I am a straightforward person. Did Mr. Xue come here for the soap?"
Xue Guanglin had heard from Shopkeeper Fan that Lady Wang liked to speak directly. He did not hesitate, "Yes, the soap and perfumed soap that Lady Wang sent to the shop today are all gone now."
"Madam, are you really not interested in selling your son?"
Tan You laughed: "I will definitely not sell the recipe. If I sell the recipe, it would be like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. Mr. Xue is a businessman, so he will understand what I mean."
Xue Guanglin sighed, "Yes, Madam has a long-term vision. But Sihai also has a shop in the capital city. I wonder if Madam can meet Sihai's needs?"
