“The others have returned!” Without waiting for the ox cart to arrive at his home, Xue Wufu pointed at the person on the ox cart and said to his mother beside him in excitement.
“Welcome back.” Liu Guixia was also very excited, and the smile on her face couldn’t stop.
It was the same for Li Hehua and Yu Hongyan.
Li Hehua even went up to Jiang Yue and carried her down from the ox cart.
Everyone was excited, except for Xue Yan. Xue Yan’s expression was the same as usual. For some reason, he did not dare to look at Jiang Yue.
When he noticed out of the corner of his eye that Jiang Yue was holding two sticks of tanghulu and looked more like a child, Xue Yan didn’t dare to look at her even more.
He knew that Jiang Yue didn’t like to be babied. Seeing Jiang Yue walking toward him from the corner of his eye, Xue Yan subconsciously took a small step back. Was she here to beat him up?
She wouldn’t do it in front of everyone, but at this moment, he was a little uncertain.
Just as Xue Yan was feeling nervous, two sticks of candy were handed to him.
Oh…
Xue Yan was silent for two seconds, then took it and unconsciously let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that she wanted to give him the candy.
Jiang Yue was baffled by Xue Xiao’s relieved look, but she didn’t care. Jiang Yue turned to Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, and the others, watching them talk excitedly with joy on their faces. The fact that this bear could be sold for 100 silver really made them ecstatic.
Liu Guixia and the others even jumped for joy when they saw that they had bought so much meat.
Dinner was already ready, but with the meat, Li Hehua quickly went to the stove under the shed to prepare more things. Yu Hongyan also went under the shed to help with the fire.
Xue Yifu was going to return the ox cart, which belonged to the Tian family. In the village, only the Tian family had a cow, so he had to pay fifteen coins after borrowing it for half a day.
However, before they left, Xue Yifu was afraid of being seen by others, so he stuffed all the silver he was holding into his mother’s hands. “Mother, this is for you. Here is fifty silver. The other fifty is with Erfu.”
Liu Guixia was so excited that her hands were shaking from the thought of having so many pieces of silver. Even though she knew that everyone in the village knew that their family now had 100 silver, she was still afraid that outsiders would see it, so she quickly entered the house.
Xue Dafu, Xue Erfu, and Xue Wufu also hurried into the house.
There was nothing to do at the entrance of the courtyard, so Jiang Yue wanted to enter the house, but she was pulled back by Xue Yan.
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Yue was confused.
Xue Yan raised the two sticks, “Don’t you want some?”
“You can eat it all.” After she finished speaking, she went in.
When she arrived at the door, she saw that the 100 silver had already been taken out and placed on the table. Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, Xue Erfu, and Xue Wufu were all gathered around the table, staring at the silver with bright eyes. It was as if their eyes were glued to the table.
Xue Wufu couldn’t help but touch it.
Jiang Yue stopped in her tracks. She did not go in to join in the fun. Instead, she turned around and sat on the threshold of the central room with her back facing the inside.
She looked around casually.
Looking at the gate of the courtyard, she found that Xue Yan was no longer there. She didn’t know where he had gone.
In the central room, Xue Wufu’s voice rang out, “Father, mother, I want to give five silver to Grandfather.”
