Chapter 420: Wolf Meat Feast
Old Granny Zhang, upon hearing this, how could she have forgotten such a thing? Her daughter was right; all the income they now enjoyed came from venturing into the mountains, didn’t it?
In the past, their family had only relied on a dozen or so acres of land, but wasn’t life now far more prosperous than before?
However, compared with her daughter’s life, all these were mere external possessions.
"If it really comes to it, and Boss Zhang can’t help, you know how to cultivate Yellow Pine Mushrooms by yourself, don’t you? We’ll just grow them at home. As for gathering wild produce, let your brothers take over. If they don’t work, do they still expect to eat for free? Listen to your mother, you are my lifeblood. If anything happened to you, I wouldn’t want to live alone! We have enough money at home now. Mother doesn’t desire wealth or status; I just want you to live safely," she said.
Feeling moved, Wang Yongzhu hugged Old Granny Zhang’s shoulders, "Mother, don’t worry, I understand. Our family’s good days have just begun, and in the future, I’ll let Mother enjoy the service of maids. I know Mother is all for me; rest assured, after today’s incident, the wild products from Chongzi Gou will always be sold to our family."
"With the wild products from Chongzi Gou, our family’s business will not worry anymore. This year is our first time in this business, and there’s so much we don’t know. Come next year, when everyone is experienced, I’ll consider some other business that will allow me to stay home with you. How does that sound?"
Although Old Granny Zhang was still not entirely satisfied, she knew her daughter had a point and could only nod in agreement.
The mother and daughter then went to sleep.
In the Liu Family’s main wife’s room, Father Liu and Mother Liu were still awake.
Father Liu took a puff of his pipe and asked Mother Liu, "Today, our Chongzi Gou has indeed come to owe a huge favor to the Wang Family. I have no idea how to repay this kindness..."
As Mother Liu unfolded the bedding, she casually said, "What’s so hard about that? Haven’t we long heard that the Wang Family deals in buying wild produce? Initially, the Wang Family’s Fourth Child was saved by our child, wasn’t it because he got buried due to a landslide while gathering wild produce? Chongzi Gou might lack other things, but we’ve got plenty of wild goods. I think the Wang Family folks are all decent people. From now on, all the game and wild products from Chongzi Gou could be sold to the Wang Family at a discount. Wouldn’t that work? After all, it doesn’t matter who we sell to. Selling to outsiders, we’d get lowballed anyway, so it’s better to sell to the Wang Family and repay the favor."
