Chapter 504: Donkey Egg in the Stew!

after bowl of her medicine, for how many years she could no longer remember. She had drunk so much that it had numbed her. 。Today, finally someone said there was hope!Xing Wan'er was about to kneel, b..."Sanqiao, come here!" Jia Yin hurriedly waved her hand to summon her clumsy fox.

The little fox dashed forward, almost knocking Jia Yin to the ground.

The little boys, after chomping down on the watermelon in their hands, gathered around, rubbing the smooth fur of the little fox with their hands and peppering it with questions.

"My father said that the Marquis got a little fox as a companion for my sister. Is this it"

"Goodness gracious, three tails Could it be a fox spirit!"

The little fox woke up feeling thirsty. Before he could even get a mouthful of watermelon to quench his thirst, the boys covered him in watermelon juice.

It was utterly disgusted and immediately stuck out its tongue, licking frantically.

"Brother Cat was surprised, "Sister, don't you give it watermelon at home Look how much it wants some, it's so pitiful!"

The little fox, perhaps understanding, stuck out its tongue, almost retracting it.

It was angrily baring its teeth, trying hard to make it clear to the cat brother that it was cleaning its fur, not being greedy!

In space, there are so many melons. He eats them all lying in the melon pile, rolling and eating!

Sadly, everyone couldn't understand fox language, and seeing it so "aggressive," they became worried instead.

Jiarren asked, "Has this fox been to see Zhang Grandpa Does it have any diseases Will it bite people What if it hurts Funiu"

Jia An Jia Xi several also following nodded.

Li Lao Tai then said, "Don't worry, the Marquis had the palace eunuch who handles animals take a look. He trimmed all three of its sharp teeth and claws. And these past two months, Fu Niuer has taken good care of it, San Tiao has never run around recklessly, it's even more docile than a puppy or kitten."

People finally felt relieved.

Dinner was ready soon.

Li Laosan and Zhao Yuru were busy in the canteen, while Li Lao Tai took her grandchildren to eat.

The children huddled together, their boisterous laughter carried on the wind to their neighbor's house.

Sun Siyuan and his wife were sitting under the eaves, enjoying the cool breeze, when they couldn't help but overhear.

Mrs. Sun whispered, "The old matriarch from the Li family next door has arrived with the young princess from Suijin Beach."

Sun Siyuan nodded and instructed, "Just be ordinary neighbors. The nanny for Nuan Nuan doesn't know her place and has caused quite a stir with the Li family. It's really a shame..."

Otherwise, with a little care for the girl from such a good family, she would have a smooth life.

Speaking of Nanny Nuan, Madam Sun also frowned and sighed: "The account books from Master Zhuang's side have arrived. I took a look at them, and Li Ma, that woman, is too ambitious and too strong-willed."

She didn't know where she got the connections, but she bought seeds and planted half a mu of corn and half a mu of potatoes, spending over two hundred taels of silver. She said that there would be a bumper harvest in autumn, and if she sold them as seeds, she would have ten times the profit.

But how could she not think, during autumn when every household's corn and potatoes would be harvested, the prices would inevitably go down. She was afraid that she wouldn't even be able to recoup her initial investment, how could there possibly be ten times the profit!

Sun Siyuan heard this and was furious, "Naughty! Send her to see Zhuangzi, how can she still not be honest"

Mrs. Sun smiled bitterly and said nothing.

As an aunt, she's already doing her best to raise her niece who lives next door. If she were to get involved in her niece's business as well, outsiders would probably think she has ulterior motives!

At the very least, Sun Chengjian's family would come and make a huge fuss.

Sun Sizhen clearly understood this, patted his wife's hand, and sighed: "You've worked hard. You don't have to worry about these things. Just keep the ledgers and land deeds safe. When our daughter grows up, we'll give them all to her."

"How this wet nurse is handled is up to the little girl herself. As long as the manor isn't sold, every year's harvest... even if it goes bankrupt, so be it."

"If that wet nurse is truly incompetent, give her twenty lashes to teach her a lesson!"

"Very well, rest assured, Master," smiled Madam Sun, changing the subject and saying no more.

The couple, listening to the laughter and chatter from next door, couldn't help but feel envious.

A family that is wise, harmonious, and prosperous with their descendants, such a flourishing clan is hard to find anywhere in the world.

When it got dark, Jiaren took his younger brothers back to the academy for evening classes.

The boys reluctantly parted, their eyes lingering on the remaining jade melon. This amused Old Madam Li so much that she laughed heartily and shooed them away.

Don't worry, these melons aren't for gifts. We're keeping them for you guys to sneakily eat later. Go to class quickly and come back tomorrow night!

Thank you, grandma!

The boys then felt relieved and ran away like a swarm of bees.

Halfway there, they met Tao Hongying and Jia Huan who were hurrying back from a restaurant in the city.

Then, they each split a drumstick of chicken.

Jiarren was full and couldn't eat another bite, especially not the drumstick. He didn't want to disappoint his aunt's loving heart either, so he took the drumstick back to his dormitory and gave it to the fattest classmate who loved to eat the most.

The other boys nearby, egged on by the commotion, swarmed the fat boy, vying to get a bite. Finally, after each of them had taken a single mouthful, they called it quits.

For a while, the study hall was filled with joyous laughter.

The rest of the classmates just watched them laughing and giggling, joining in with a smile or two.

But the two sitting in the back were full of disdain, their expressions also carrying a hint of smugness.

But the crowd had gotten used to it, these two like donkey dung in a pot of stew, always popping up now and then, showing themselves off.

Since we can't pick it out, we can only pretend we don't see it.

Jia Ren didn't take it to heart, after all, he wasn't silver. He couldn't please everyone...

Li Laosan and Zhao Yuru didn't return to the courtyard until late. Without the children's noise, everyone gathered together, eating jade melon, fanning themselves with lotus fans, and chatting idly, feeling more at ease.

It was late before everyone went to sleep.

Early the next morning, Li Laosan and Zhao Yuru went to the canteen before dawn.

After the breakfast rush and with the students back in class, Zhao Yuru returned home to take the children, young and old, for a stroll on the street, afraid they might be bored at home.

Jia Yin is young and curious.

Wénjuān had to look after the small courtyard, do housework, and make ice. She was busy every day and hadn't been to town for a long time. She felt a little restless.

Lao Tai Li and Tao Hongying are the doting grandparents, even if they don't want to buy anything, they like to go for walks with their grandchildren.

Today, the sky had a few rare clouds floating above. It wasn't as scorching hot either, making it a perfect time for outings.

Thus, the entire family, including Grandma He and Shui Ling, set out.

The first thing to do when going out is to buy the glutinous rice cake at the end of the street.

Jia Yin walked and ate, occasionally running over to take a look at the small items on the roadside stalls.

But she only took a look, nothing caught her eye, after all, the craftsmanship was too rough.

As a result, a street vendor who had probably not done any business for half the day, seeing that they were well-dressed, pestered them relentlessly with introductions.

Finally, he took out a pair of exquisitely carved wooden plaques and said, “These are amulets blessed at the temple. If any of you have exam takers in your families, buy one for them to wear. It’s guaranteed to bring them success on their exams!”

Zhao Yuru often saw students at the academy hanging something on their waists. She laughed and said, “There are quite a few people in the academy who have it. Looking at it, it's indeed not as good as this one.”

"Of course, madam, these two plaques are carved from sandalwood and have been enshrined in the temple for seventy-seven forty-nine days..." The peddler was waxing lyrical, but was suddenly interrupted by three things in Jia Yin's arms.

Sāntiáo didn't know why, perhaps because she saw the peddler was unpleasant, she kept baring her teeth at him, even eager to jump over and take a bite...
