Chapter 22: Shame
Most of the people who came to the market were poor people. Just now they heard Wen Nuan and Steward Yuan's words and felt them deeply. These snails were indeed eaten during famine times, but it was too unpalatable and full of mud.
Seeing that Steward Yuan wants to buy it and the clothes on this man were very good, they can see he is not an ordinary person. Besides, even wolves want to buy it. An uncle who had wanted snails to eat with wine in the first place said: "I have eaten snails before, and they are not poisonous. It’s just not delicious! But these spicy fried snails are really delicious. Give me two bowls!"
"I will also buy it. I want to bring it back home and taste it, and learn how to make it myself. After that, when the children at home want meat, they can eat some meat as soon as I go to the river." An old woman said.
"That's right, then I want a bowl too! I am a mud-legged man. I grew up playing in the mud, of course I have no problem eating the things that grow out of the mud!"
Wen Nuan gave the big bad wolf a look of appreciation, smiled and said: "Okay, please wait a moment, Dad, Big Brother, help pack it!"
Wen Jiarui and Wen Chun hurriedly started packing.
Wen Yu saw that she hadn't managed to break up this cheap business after it was rescued by several people. She couldn't help but sarcastically say: "Go buy it! Don't say that I didn't kindly remind everyone, this person is a plague god, born weak and sick! Whatever has anything to do with her is unlucky! Maybe the reason this plague star is so sick is because of eating those things! Are you not afraid to eat it? If you want to buy things from her house, you can buy it if you don't care about getting sick!"
Everyone's complexion changed again!
Plague God? Suffering from all kinds of diseases? Will they get all kinds of diseases if they eat these snails?
This...everyone looked at the snails in their hands and hesitated.
Do they dare to eat?
Wen Nuan's eyes were cold. This person really is too much!
She glanced at Da Hui.
The big bad wolf roared and pounced on Wen Yu!
Wen Yu was so scared that her face turned pale, and she quickly hid behind Zhu Zhenxuan.
Zhu Zhenxuan looked at the big bad wolf who was leaping over with an expression of horror, and backed away again and again: "Don't come here! Don't...ah, help! ~~ This wolf bites someone!"
The big bad wolf threw the two directly on the ground, opening his mouth wide, revealing sharp fangs. His eyes glowed with a cold light as he stared at Wen Yu intently and lowered his head toward her.
Wen Yu looked at his pointed fangs and screamed again and again: "Ah! No! No..."
The big gray wolf folded both ears down and covered his ear holes: It's so noisy, it's bad because Xiao Hei is not here, otherwise it will pull two tufts of bird feces to block their mouths.
"Da Hui, don't hurt people, come back!" Steward Yuan hurriedly stopped him.
Da Hui stepped on Wen Yu with his left front leg and Zhu Zhenxuan with his right front leg, turning his head to look at Wen Nuan.
Wen Nuan nodded slightly.
It then retracted its two legs gracefully, turned around and ran back to Wen Nuan's side.
Everyone else had been scared into retreating at least three feet away, but they laughed again when they saw the embarrassing appearance of the two people.
Wen Yu’s pearl hairpins are all messed up, covered in dust.
She and Zhu Zhenxuan quickly got up from the ground and ran away.
At this time, everyone looked at their backs, the clothing around their hips was stained with water and mud.
People looked down at the ground again: two puddles of bright water stains.
Everyone's expressions are wonderful!
A child asked with a strange face: "Mother, did they pee their pants? They pee their pants when they are so big, it's shameful!"
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Wen Yu and Zhu Zhenxuan, who ran not far away, heard this, and were so ashamed they wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Both pairs of feet are like clockwork, running fast!
This is all caused by that plague star!
Zhu Zhenxuan felt that he had lost all his face in this life. For a long time, he dared not walk around on the street, worried that he would be recognized by others.
Wen Jiarui was still blue with anger: "Sister Yu is really..."
You are young, why is your mind so vicious!
Wen Nuan whispered: "Daddy, do not be angry, she did it deliberately. We can be at ease because we have justice on our side. People eat grains, who has gotten sick from them?”
Wen Yu's tricks can't be concealed from Steward Yuan. This kind of person who deliberately finds faults with people's livelihoods, he can't stand them the most: "That girl looks very good! But her thinking is not good at her young age. Doing everything possible to destroy other people’s livelihoods. It’s not easy to find a profitable job. She can just not buy if she doesn’t dare to eat it! Even my Da Hui can’t stand her! It’s not the fault of other girls if they are born weak and sick. Anyway, I’m not afraid of it! Pack up the rest! My master smelled the scent and said he wanted to eat some."
He has to hurry up and buy it, so he can give it to the master in the afternoon!
Everyone was even more surprised when they heard this. This person in such good clothes is actually just a subordinate? How rich is his master?
Those golden and precious people actually eat these fried snails?
The woman who bought a bowl of snails just now also has a sickly child in her family. Knowing this difficulty and listening to the words of Steward Yuan, she was deeply moved: "Yes, it's not the child's fault to be frail and sick. If you don't dare to eat it, you can just not buy it! I can see that little girl has some hatred with you! She deliberately tried to slander you. If these snails are deadly to eat, would you dare to sell it? Animals are all spiritual, something that wolves hold on to, I think it must be a good thing!"
"Thank you for your understanding." Wen Nuan smiled, neatly organized the rest of the fried snails into two packs, and handed them to Steward Yuan: "Thank you, old man, for helping us to get justice."
Steward Yuan took the snails, took out a couple of silvers, and put it on the cart: "Thank you! For your reward, Miss can go home early after selling out!"
After speaking, he turned and left. The master was still waiting for him to return to the carriage.
Da Hui wagged his tail at Wen Nuan and ran away.
Wen Nuan watched the big bad wolf run to a carriage not far away and jump in.
At this time, the curtains of the carriage opened, revealing a handsome face with a clear and charming aura.
The man nodded at Wen Nuan in a distant way.
Wen Nuan nodded back, and silently said thank you.
The curtain was lowered, and Steward Yuan approached the carriage and sat in the front passenger position, and then the carriage drove away.
Others saw this and believed his words, that person really was just a bad guy.
There is no more excitement, the snails are also sold out, and everyone scattered.
Wen Nuan retracted her gaze and saw that Wen Jiarui was putting away the wooden barrels, and Wen Chun was cleaning up snail shells from the ground.
Wen Nuan hurried to help, and the three of them cleaned the ground up before pushing the cart to leave.
"Sister Nuan, I made some money today. If you want to eat something, Dad will buy it for you."
"There's nothing I want to eat in town. Dad, let's go buy some seasonings and rice noodles and go home! I like to eat white rice." She was afraid of eating porridge every day.
Their bellies shouldn't be full of water only!
“Okay, Dad will buy some rice to bring home, but not just now. I won’t buy more until the new grain comes down. The steamed rice from new grain tastes better and is more fragrant."
Wen Nuan glanced at the sky, it was almost noon, they still had half an hour before they had to head home, she said: "Okay. Father, go to the grocery store to buy rice noodles, my elder brother and I will go to the drug store to sell the He Shou Wu. Then we can all meet up at Fugui Restaurant. Let's pick up Second Sister and go home together."
Wen Xin was working as a dishwasher at Fugui Restaurant, but this is her last day, the silver they had borrowed would be paid off after she finishes up today.
"Okay!" The shopkeeper of the pharmacy was his second brother, and Wen Jiarui is not afraid of Wen Nuan getting cheated by others, so he agreed.
So the three of them split up.
He Shou Wu: root of Polygonum multiflorum, multi-purposeful herb in Chinese medicine, said to nourish blood, strengthen muscles, promote vitality, treat various ailments, etc.
