After becoming a vicious stepmother, the villain cub is super clingy

Chapter 24 A dead horse becomes a living horse doctor

Mother Wang looked Jiang Tang up and down and felt that although Jiang Tang's clothes were a little torn, he was neither humble nor arrogant when speaking to them.

There was none of the humble manner that the country people usually use when talking to them.

She just said that flowers are nothing more than a matter of soil and fertilizer, and growing flowers is indeed about these two issues.

"Mom, should I take this girl back home and try it out?" Qinglian asked Mother Wang, undecided.

Mother Wang frowned and asked Jiang Tang: "Miss, if you save this flower, I will give you a reward of one or two taels of silver. If you kill it, it won't be a matter of getting beaten!"

"You have thought about it!"

Jiang Tang said calmly: "Since I dare to speak, I must have the ability!"

Mother Wang stared at Jiang Tang for a few seconds and decided: "Qinglian, take the flowers back to the girl. Just as you said, try your best. What if it works?"

"Girl, my life is in your hands, you must save me!"

Qinglian handed the orchid to Jiang Tang with great caution.

Jiang Tang deliberately put down the backpack and pretended to put the flowers in it.

"Why is there a rabbit here?" Mother Wang saw it at a glance.

Jiang Tang said, "I caught this by accident on the mountain yesterday. There are many children at home and they have no food to eat, so I thought of buying it!"

"My son said that all the people living here are wealthy families, so we wanted to give it a try and see if we can sell it!"

Jiang Tang spoke slowly and had no intention of asking Mother Wang to buy it.

Mother Wang began to have a better impression of Jiang Tang.

She was used to seeing people who always begged them for help, and this was the first time she met someone like Jiang Tang, and she always found him pleasing to the eye.

"Mom, didn't the master say that he wanted to eat some game these days? We can buy it outside anyway, so why not buy the girl's rabbit?" Qinglian acted coquettishly.

Mother Wang glanced at her reproachfully.

"Since Qinglian has spoken to you, I will take it!"

Qinglian quickly picked up the rabbit.

Mother Wang touched the rabbit and said, "This rabbit is good, with a lot of meat. Game outside costs 18 copper coins per pound, and this game probably weighs 6 or 7 pounds. I'll give you 100 copper coins. You can take the extra, and don't ask me for less!"

"Thank you, Mom!" Jiang Tang understood what Mother Wang meant.

Mother Wang became more and more satisfied with Jiang Tang. This girl was not greedy for money and had good vision.

Mother Wang took out a hundred copper coins from her purse and gave them to Jiang Tang.

"You don't want to count?" Mother Wang was surprised to see Jiang Tang putting the money directly into her pocket.

Jiang Tang explained with a smile: "Since mom said she wants it, she definitely won't do anything. I think mom is a straightforward person, so I naturally believe you!"

Mother Wang was very happy after hearing what Jiang Tang said, and felt that the money she spent today was well worth it.

When Jiang Tang was about to leave, Qinglian repeatedly reminded him, "Miss, what you are raising is not an orchid, but my life. You must save it!"

"Well, if I don't come to give you flowers in ten days, I must have been delayed by something. You can go to Long Beach Village to find me!"

Thinking of his reputation, Jiang Tang reminded: "If you come, you must be low-key and say you are a relative of my mother's family!"

They were all smart people. Although Jiang Tang did not say it explicitly, Qinglian understood what Jiang Tang meant.

Qinglian didn't close the door until Jiang Tang left the alley.

Qinglian touched her chest and said, "Mom, am I too brave? A stranger came to the door and I gave him the flowers after he said a few words."

"It's too late to know now!" Mother Wang patted her and said, "But that girl looks different from others, she won't lie to you. Remember, if she doesn't come after ten days, go look for her!"

Thinking that everyone had gone far away and it was too late to regret now, Qinglian had to let go of her heart for the time being.

Jiang Tang took Mo Jingchun and turned a corner, then jumped up excitedly.

"Brother Chun, please pinch me. We made money today, and we made a lot of money..."

"Woooo..."

Mo Jingchun stepped on the steps by the roadside and covered Jiang Tang's mouth.

He glanced quickly left and right.

"There are many thieves on the street, be careful of being targeted!"

Jiang Tang whimpered, and Mo Jingchun moved his hand away only after he was sure that she would not scream again.

"You are really smart, if we had gone directly to the market, it might not have been sold yet!"

Jiang Tang attributed all the credit to Mo Jingchun.

Mo Jingchun blushed, thinking of the flowers in Jiang Tang's basket: "Can you do it?"

Mo Jingchun felt uneasy when he thought that someone would come to his house to pick up the flowers in ten days.

He realized later that this woman was too bold, and it was strange that he did not stop her just now.

Jiang Tang saw his worry and said with a smile: "People say that we should try our best to save the dying horse. We will know the result in ten days!"

"If it works, it's two taels of silver. If it doesn't, it's your head. Anyway..." She paused and deliberately said, "There's a rat poison seller up ahead. Why don't we go buy some?"

Mo Jingchun blushed.

With money, Jiang Tang felt more confident.

But when he asked about the price, Jiang Tang suddenly felt that the money he had was not even money at all.

A pound of good pork costs thirteen copper coins.

One egg costs one penny.

The cheapest green vegetables cost two copper coins per pound, and five copper coins per three pounds.

I randomly found a shop selling grain.

Rice and flour had the same price of eight copper coins per pound. Millet was six copper coins, brown rice was five copper coins, and cornmeal was three copper coins.

Jiang Tang couldn't laugh at all.

She discussed with Mo Jingchun: "We only have so few copper coins. How about buying two catties of rice and flour, and three catties of millet? We don't need to buy brown rice at home. How about buying some oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc?"

Jiang Tang didn't dare to say anything afterwards, as she felt that if she said it out loud, the money would be gone.

Mo Jingchun frowned: "Why not just buy brown rice? Brown rice is good enough to buy 20 kilograms. If you save it, it can last you a month!"

"No!" Jiang Tang rejected it outright: "Money is earned, not saved. You three are all growing up. I think you are eating brown rice every day just to help me lose weight!"

The light in Mo Jingchun's eyes faded.

"Then you can do whatever you want. After all, it's your own money!"

Jiang Tang didn't like seeing him like this, but this kid was too thrifty.

So Jiang Tang bought two pounds of rice and white flour, which cost him thirty-two copper coins. He also bought three pounds of yellow millet, which cost him fifteen copper coins.

After leaving the grain shop, Jiang Tang went to the grocery store and bought some salt, some soy sauce and some cooking seasonings.

After just two rounds, Jiang Tang only had twenty copper coins left in his hand.

Jiang Tang sighed, but there was nothing he could do. He didn't have any of these things at home, and he couldn't keep asking Sun Cuicui to borrow from him.

If she had known that life would be so difficult after being kicked out of the house, she would have given something from the Mo family no matter what.

But it's too late to say anything now.

One thought that money was spent too quickly, and the other thought that I shouldn’t buy rice and flour.

Both mother and daughter were in a bad mood.
