After becoming rich overnight, I handed over the system.

Chapter 354 The Troubling Son

Lin, the top saleswoman, was unaware that she had somehow managed to retain her title as a top salesperson. She was currently going to report back to Aunt Lu.

Although Lu Juhua hoped that Lin Liuyi could give her more tasks, she didn't rely entirely on him.

Early in the morning, she took her own vegetables into town. One reason was to establish a provenance for the meat she had taken out, and the other was to sell the vegetables.

After finding the market and paying the stall fee, Aunt Lu laid out all the vegetables from her basket.

This time she brought a lot more. In addition to the chives and spinach she grew herself, she also picked some elm seeds, dug up some wild vegetables and bamboo shoots, and even picked a handful of toon buds.

These are all vegetables that my family usually eats, but I don't know if city people would eat these wild vegetables. I'm a little uneasy.

The slender chives were neatly arranged, and the spinach leaves were still covered with transparent dewdrops. The elm seeds, which looked like copper coins, were piled up tightly together.

The bright green shepherd's purse was tied into small bunches with straw by Aunt Lu, with a small yellow flower attached to the knot as a free gift. The bamboo shoots were still wrapped in thick clothes, and only the broken roots showed their freshness. The purplish-red tender shoots of toon sprouts with a slightly aggressive aroma were even more eye-catching. For a moment, Aunt Lu's stall exuded the word "fresh".

The stall quickly attracted customers. "Hey, they even have toon sprouts here!"

The visitor was also surprised; the toon sprouts were already here so early! It seems spring has truly arrived!

"How much are these toon sprouts?"

"Three cents a handful, five cents for two handfuls!"

"Okay! Let's play a couple of rounds!"

Customers who bought vegetables thought it was a good deal. They would blanch the toon sprouts and serve them with eggs—it would be delicious!

Aunt Lu was also very happy. She looked around and tentatively asked for a high price, but the customer actually agreed. Her stall opened for business immediately. How could she not be happy!

Sure enough, after one satisfied customer left, even more customers patronized Aunt Lu's stall.

After she finished buying the groceries, she hurriedly left with her empty basket on her back.

Taking the meat out halfway through the journey would be even more enjoyable.

She gave Aunt Wang a pound of meat as promised, and the two sisters chatted for a while before going home.

When she got home, she didn't even care about the meat; the first thing she did was check how much money she had earned.

"One cent, five cents, two dollars, ten dollars, fifteen dollars and fifty cents!" Lu Juhua was a little frightened.

She earned more than ten yuan in just one morning selling vegetables!

Forget about costs; the vegetables farmers grow themselves, plus the vegetables they forage in the wild, mean there are practically no costs.

Even without going out to work, she can earn more than ten yuan a day, which makes Aunt Lu extremely satisfied.

However, she also knew that this was only an occasional occurrence, and in her opinion, most of the money she earned today was due to the wild vegetables she found.

"I didn't expect city people to actually like eating elm seeds, toon sprouts, and bamboo shoots!"

Grandma Lu was feeling quite pleased when her two sons returned from work.

Although she had decided to earn money to support her two sons' wedding expenses, Aunt Lu did not intend to tell them about it.

This resulted in her eldest son looking very unwell when he returned.

Seeing this, Lu Juhua quickly went to the kitchen to cook the meat. Well, if it's not good, then so be it. She had been tired all morning and didn't have time to care about such trivial matters.

Lu Juhua hummed a little tune as she cooked meat in the kitchen.

"Oh, Mother, you're making meat today!" The second son came in.

"Hey, didn't you want to eat meat? Today I'll let you eat to your heart's content!" Lu Juhua said cheerfully.

Anyway, the meat didn't cost any money, and she actually made money today!

The second son felt uneasy. Why would his mother, who was usually so stingy, suddenly buy so much meat? Could it be that they had upset her too much yesterday?

"Mother, I was just joking yesterday. Xiaofang said the bride price would be two hundred!" the second son said ingratiatingly.

"Heh, I know you guys well enough. Second brother, don't be in such a hurry. I remember the two hundred dowry you promised! It's normal for you to want more, but what I'm thinking is, let's fix up our house first! That way, it'll look better on the surface!"

Lu Juhua is now fully awake; she won't be fooled by her two sons.

It's normal for the woman to want more dowry, but that's just their family's means, and they didn't hide it when they were discussing the marriage.

It's impossible to increase the bride price now. It's good that Lu Juhua is willing to spend money, but she wants to improve the living conditions of her two sons, not the bride's.

"That works too, Mother!" The second son thought it was a good idea, since they would be the ones to benefit this way.

He nodded in agreement with his mother's suggestion, but then secretly complained, "Mom, do you know why my older brother is unhappy today?"

"What's wrong?"

"Hey, my future sister-in-law is looking for him again! Probably still asking for money!" the second son said, looking exasperated.

How could his older brother be so easily manipulated by a woman!

Lu Juhua rolled her eyes at him. What, aren't you the same?

The second son gave Lu Juhua a fawning smile, "Mom, I'm different from my eldest brother. Xiaofang listens to me very well!"

Lu Juhua didn't want to talk about her two sons; neither of them was a good person.

"Go, stop standing there! The meat's ready, call your older brother to eat!"

After the three of them sat down, Lu Juhua saw that her eldest son still had a deadpan expression.

She slammed her chopsticks on the table in anger, "What, giving your old mother a hard time? Are you going to eat or not? If not, get out!"

The second son thought his older brother would fight his mother to the end and also slam the table.

To everyone's surprise, the eldest son, who had been scolded by his mother, immediately sat up straight, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat seriously.

It's as if that sullen face from just moments ago has vanished in an instant.

Aunt Lu was both angry and amused. "What a disappointment!"

Regardless of her two troublesome sons, Aunt Lu is now eagerly waiting for Lin Liuyi to assign her a task.

"Auntie, do you still have any elm seeds? I exchanged the ten pounds you had last time for a cotton quilt, do you want it?"

"Yes, yes!" Aunt Lu looked at the mountain of cotton quilts over there, she was very anxious.

This is a really good thing! They don't produce cotton here, and buying a cotton quilt in winter costs a lot of money.

Look at the cotton quilt at Lin Liuyi's feet. It's bulging and full, and you can tell that the cotton is of good quality. If you take it over and take it apart and stuff it in, you might be able to make two quilts from one!

Before even receiving the goods, Aunt Lu was already planning how to use them. Although it wasn't winter yet, buying cotton in the winter would cost a lot of money!

When Lin Liu saw Aunt Lu's eyes shining as she stared at the quilt, he also felt that he had made the right choice.

The quilt was handed to Aunt Lu, and she immediately rushed over to it.

Oh my, it's so soft!
