Xiao Fan was helpless and really wanted to buy it back. He asked his wife to start taking care of her skin tonight, so he had to take off the most valuable jade pendant that he bought specially to support the occasion.

"This jade pendant is worth fifty taels. I bought it a while ago. I will mortgage it with you first. When I get the remaining eight hundred taels tomorrow, I will return this jade pendant to me."

"Don't break it to me!"

He is not worried about Boss B and Boss Gu running away after taking his jade pendant. Firstly, they still have to do business in the town. If they can run away, the monk cannot run away from the temple. Secondly, if they really take his jade pendant, If they run away, he can report it to the officials and ask them to catch them back.

Furthermore, he felt that Boss Bi and Boss Gu were both good-looking people, so they wouldn't do such despicable, dirty, and inhuman things, right?

Gu Rao had some research on jade. After taking the jade pendant and looking at it for a while, he knew that what Xiao Fan said was true. This jade pendant was indeed a good piece of jade, worth fifty taels of silver.

"That's fine."

"Remember to pick up the money early tomorrow. I'm also afraid that the jade pendant will be lost if it is kept here for a long time."

It won't be worth it if you have to lose money then.

Gu Rao went up to the second floor and took out a wooden box from the space. Inside the wooden box was a piece of silk padded with pearl powder inside.

This box of pearl powder had been weighed, and it was exactly one kilogram. In order to make a mistake in placing it, she weighed it again with an electronic scale, and the box weighed one kilogram or three taels.

When Xiao Fan saw the box, he asked cautiously, "This box weighs several ounces. Did you reduce the weight of the box for me?"

Gu Rao nodded.

"The net weight of the pearl powder is ten taels, and the box and the silk fabric inside weigh three taels together. If you don't believe it, you can weigh it yourself after you go back."

Xiao Fan felt relieved.

"I still trust Boss Gu, so I won't weigh you anymore. If the pearl powder works well, I will come to take care of your business often in the future!"

Gu Rao waved his hand quickly.

"I am only in the food business, not pearl powder business."

"These pearl powders were collected by me when my family was poor. The price is far higher than the price I sold them to you. Instead of selling them to you at a loss, I might as well keep them for myself."

Xiao Fan finally believed this time that he bought ten taels for one tael of silver and took advantage of Boss Gu. He felt happy and regretful at the same time, but it was a pity that he would not be able to take advantage in the future.

but……

He thought about it, why would Boss Gu, a businessman, let himself take advantage? By the way, it's because Boss Gu, as a woman, sympathizes with his wife.

In fact, Xiao Fan has always felt that he is good enough to his wife. At least, no man he knows around him can do this to him.

Who doesn’t love sex among men?

Of course he also likes colors. After he has money, he can afford to keep a beautiful vase.

But whenever he thinks of his wife who has been with him from nothing before to now having a better life at home, he still chooses to exercise restraint.

Who makes his wife jealous? She cries whenever he talks about concubinage. Instead of crying and making a fuss in front of him, she hides in the room and sobs alone.

Looks quite pitiful.

Xiao Fan also accidentally saw his crying wife through the crack of the door, so he stopped thinking about it and told his parents not to mention the concubinage in front of his wife.

-

Xiao Fan bought the mochi and took some to his parents. Then he returned to his yard and said loudly before he got close, "Madam, I bought you pearl powder, which can be used to make pearl powder." Apply the mask on your face and within a month, you will be back to your former beauty!”

Of course he was bragging about this, in order to stimulate his wife's enthusiasm. Don't think that the effect is not obvious, so you will be too lazy to fish for three days and dry the net for two days.

Boss Gu told me that it will be effective if you insist on using it.

Buying it and not using it is a waste of a good thing!

"Boss Gu said that it can be mixed with milk or egg whites. Now that we don't have milk at home, let's use egg whites first."

You Lian walked out of the house.

She has delicate features and a petite figure. Her hair is neatly tied behind her head. She has a pink hairpin on each side of her head. She is wearing a white lining and a robe with hundreds of blue gradients. The top of the robe is silver-blue. Color butterfly embroidery, silver embroidery on the hem, and a pair of small lake blue butterfly embroidery shoes on the feet.

The only shortcoming is that his complexion is sallow, making him look very lethargic, which doesn't match the exquisite clothes on his body.

Xiao Fan sighed silently in his heart.

The clothes his wife was wearing were bought by him for five taels of silver when he saw a beautiful woman wearing them when he went to the next county to do business.

Can be worn on my wife...

A bit of a waste of money.

You Lian didn't miss the flash of disappointment in her husband's eyes when he saw her. The original expectation dissipated when he saw that disappointment.

My heart felt as bitter as if I had eaten coptis.

Everyone will grow old, and she should have been mentally prepared a long time ago, but she is still unwilling to give up. Why should she give up her husband to someone else after she finally got through it?

She accompanies him to endure hardships, washes his hands and makes soup for him, takes care of his parents, and gives birth to children for him. Why should other women not need to do anything for him? She only needs to be beautiful to enjoy her with him. The result of years of hard work?

From the moment her parents-in-law proposed taking a concubine for her husband, and her husband was obviously very moved, she realized clearly that her stable life would not last long.

During this period of time, she had been thinking that it would be better if her husband had remained the same pauper and never made a fortune, and he would always belong to her alone.

When she refused her family's arrangement and married a wealthy man, she chose to marry her childhood sweetheart because of nothing else but the long-lasting relationship with him and his tenderness and consideration for him.

But now, there is not much love left, not only for him, but also for her, there is not much love left for him. Who doesn't like the new and dislike the old?

If a woman hadn't been able to take concubines openly like a man, she would have wanted to find a young and strong man. Unfortunately, the world was unfair to women, and she could only keep him alone in her life.

Now do you have to give up even that tenderness and considerateness to others?

"Ms. sir, does the pearl powder you just mentioned really have such a good effect? ​​You didn't say that just to coax me, did you?"

His eyes were full of emotion and hope.

Although she was extremely disappointed in her heart with her ungrateful husband who wanted to be bad when he got money, she was still smart and never showed her disappointment and disgust. Depend on him and trust him extremely. Knowing that he is soft-hearted, he will deliberately pretend to be pitiful to achieve his own goals.

Leaving a crack in the door to secretly cry was a trick she learned from playbooks.

Not to mention, it’s quite useful.

After the dog man saw her secretly crying, he temporarily gave up the idea of ​​taking a concubine.

But gaining sympathy and pretending to be pitiful is not a long-term solution.

You Lian used to be so focused on her husband that she didn't realize that while she was dedicating herself to him, she was also consuming her youth and beauty.

Today, she is no longer the innocent and beautiful girl she was before, but a yellow-faced woman whose skin has become sallow and rough due to work and poor nutrition. She has not taken good care of herself after giving birth, and her figure is not as good as before.
