“He wrote a letter a few days ago and said that he had already agreed,” Liu Guixia continued, “It will be on the sixth of June. Sanfu wanted to marry Fufu in early June, so he chose this date. You won’t be too busy to come back, will Xue Sifu smiled and said, “l won’t. I’ll be able to come back often next month. There will be no problem for me at the beginning of the month. The strawberries, tomatoes, and other things at home will gradually mature in the upcoming month. Moreover, there are so many other wild things planted this year…” He glanced at the two children before continuing with a smile.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s eyes met. They felt that Sifu’s glance at them just now was quite meaningful.
However, Sifu was still saying, “Also, when the next month comes, it’ll be a good time to start selling ice. Last year, our family made a lot of money by selling ice in just two months. We have to continue this business. This year, I’ve thought it through. I’ll see if I can ask someone to get more saltpeter. We don’t have enough saltpeter. When the time comes, we won’t be making ice at home. We’ll make it in town and hire people to do it. Our family won’t be short of money, so we can hire many people. That way, we won’t have to work so hard. It also saves us the trouble of having to send ice from home to town. It won’t be a big deal if they learn how to make ice. After all, not many people could get that much saltpeter to make ice.”
“No matter how you put it, Doctor Shen can’t get that much saltpeter. If he can’t, how can anyone else get it?” Xue Dafu said.
Xue Sifu looked at the two children again before smiling. “I’ve met quite a few people and built connections running about. Moreover, Shopkeeper Qiao has some connections.”
Jiang Yue looked at Xue Yan. He felt that this network of people must be because he was the Crown Prince.
Xue Yan also felt the same.
Xue Erfu also knew that Xue Yan was the Crown Prince and planned to take advantage of that. Ever since Xue Yan became the Crown Prince, carrying out business has become much easier and more convenient.
However, Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, and Yu Hongyan didn’t know that. When they heard Xue Sifu’s words, they believed him. They were overjoyed. “Then our family will be rich this year.”
“When will Pei Fufu return from the capital city?” Xue Sifu asked himself.
Should we send someone to pick her up, or should her family bring her back? Is it true that her brother’s getting married as well?”
Liu Guixia chuckled and said, “There’s no need for our family to send someone to pick them up. It’s already confirmed. They said that their family had returned from the imperial capital. However, because Dongyu is also an official and doesn’t have that many days off… I think he will be like Sanfu and will only come back a day or two before the wedding. Only the in-laws will bring Pei Fufu back first. When Pei Fufu gets married and marries into our family, her brother will marry Mister Zhangs daughter. They have already sent people back to clean up and prepare for the wedding. They also sent someone to inform us that they will be back in town by the end of this month at the latest.’
“By the end of the month, Pei Fufu and the others should be back,” said Xue
Sifu with a smile.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan also thought so..
