Chapter 731 Shameless to Death (4)_1
Pei Qin exclaimed in surprise, "Aren’t you out of money right now? Cabbage might be cheap, but you still need a significant amount of silver to buy so much. Ingredients are even more expensive. Can you really afford to put up the silver as capital?"
They would figure out a way to get the silver needed for capital even if they didn’t have it. Besides, the year before last, Pei Qin and Mo Heng were sent to jail in Capital Jingcheng, and their workshop was sealed by the Government Office, yet their family made a good sum of money by selling spicy cabbage. But if Fang Hui admitted she had the capital, it would contradict what she just said. Fang Hui’s eyes shifted, and with red eyes, she said, "Your grandfather’s family isn’t wealthy either. I heard it was you who gave them fifty taels of silver for their workshop. I won’t borrow from them. You have plenty of spare change, so lend us some, and we will pay you back immediately after selling the spicy cabbage at the end of the year."
Pei Qin laughed. "I’ll go to the kitchen to see if the food is ready. Let’s eat first." Saying this, she stood up and left the room.
As soon as Jiujiu heard they were going to the kitchen, she immediately stood up to follow.
With Huang Qiu’s assistance, the Cook woman had already steamed the lotus leaf cakes. The fish slices were ready and made into sauerkraut fish. She also stir-fried some meat and eggs, prepared a dish of small green vegetables, and cooked an egg and corn soup.
Seeing that the dishes were ready, Pei Qin came out to wash her hands and prepare for the meal.
Li Hualing, seeing her washing her hands, also hurried over to wash and help.
When the dishes and soup were served, Feng Xiaolang was lying beside the table, stretching out his hand and demanding, "Eat meat! I want to eat meat!"
"Alright, alright! You’ll get meat now!" Fang Hui hugged him and sat him on a chair. "Just wait a moment, huh?"
Feng Xiaolang didn’t want to wait. Every time they had meat, he would get two pieces first. Seeing that Fang Hui didn’t give him any, he stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful.
"Xiaolang!" Li Hualing’s face instantly flushed with embarrassment as she helplessly turned to look at Pei Qin.
