Chapter 101: Chapter 101: She Must Be Seeing Things_1
Refinishing the furniture?
That would involve stripping the existing polish, sanding it down, and repainting it. Not only is it time-consuming, but also costly!
In comparison to delivering the furniture, this is not a matter of a few copper coins. What if she decides to change her mind again? Then all my efforts would’ve been in vain, and I wouldn’t have made a single penny!
Mrs. Qin-Chen wished she could kick Su Pan’er out right away!
How had she not noticed before that this ugly girl was so eloquent?
"Repainting is definitely out of the question, so I’ll have to deliver it instead."
Mrs. Qin-Chen thought for a moment before reluctantly agreeing. As she rolled her eyes, she deliberately added, "However, if you want to buy it on credit, then you have to give me four ounces of silver, and pay it off within three months."
Did you think you could easily take advantage of me? I must find a way to make up for it!
I bet you can’t even afford the money. You’ll probably have to struggle to earn an ounce of silver. Since you dare to bargain ruthlessly, I should also make you suffer a great loss.
Qin Yueshi next to her was anxious!
She quickly stepped forward to pull Mrs. Qin-Chen aside, "Second younger sister, Third brother’s wife just separated her stove from ours. As the elder sister-in-law, can’t you be a little more considerate? Three months is too short a time. Why not make it six months instead?"
Mrs. Qin-Chen looked smug, "My goodness! What are you saying, elder sister-in-law? Have you forgotten that this store belongs to my elder brother? If I favour my third brother, wouldn’t it be at the expense of my elder brother? If I do this, wouldn’t people point their fingers and accuse me, the married youngest sister, as a thief? I simply can’t do such a thing!"
Qin Yueshi wanted to say more, but Su Pan’er stopped her.
"I don’t need three months. I can pay you in silver right now. You go prepare to load the cart."
Su Pan’er opened her bag of money, and the gleaming silver coins immediately dazzled Mrs. Qin-Chen’s greedy eyes.
Her eyes almost bulged out like a cow’s!
She...she...she... unexpectedly had so many silver coins! Weren’t they were just saying that they’d just separated their stove? Where did all this silver come from?
It must be a figment of her imagination, it must be!
Mrs. Qin-Chen stared in disbelief, rubbing her eyes and then rubbing them again. She absolutely refused to believe what she was seeing.
Su Pan’er, however, didn’t care about what she was thinking. She directly took three ounces of silver from the bag and handed it to her.
"Here! Make sure to check the amount."
The silver coins slid off her plump hand and straight into Mrs. Qin-Chen’s palm. Even with her mouth open wide, Mrs. Qin-Chen remained speechless in shock.
Qin Yueshi also stood with her mouth open, her face filled with surprise!
"Third brother’s wife, where did all this silver come from...?"
Su Pan’er didn’t respond but instead glanced at Qin Yi.
Qin Yi looked at Su Pan’er, his eyes full of smiles, "Oh, this is all from selling the medicinal ingredients! A benevolent medical maestro took a liking to Pan’er’s herbs and bought them at a high price."
"So that’s how it is! Well then, congratulations to Third Uncle and his wife."
Qin Yueshi couldn’t help but congratulate Su Pan’er and him.
Su Pan’er put the bag of money back in her bosom and smiled lightly.
Watching the family happily chatting away, Mrs. Qin-Chen was seething with resentment!
"Don’t know yet if this silver is enough!"
She huffed heavily, picked up the scales and kept weighing the silver again and again.
No matter how Mrs. Qin-Chen looked, the silver pile firmly equaled three ounces, giving her no chance to find any fault.
Glancing at the gloomy face of Mrs. Qin-Chen, Su Pan’er shook her head, "You’ve been weighing them for quite a while now. Is the silver enough? If it is, aren’t you supposed to arrange for the delivery? Do I need to tell you where you’re supposed to deliver it to?"
"I, I understand..."
Mrs. Qin-Chen somewhat numbly withdrew into the inner room. Not long after, Chen Laoshi awkwardly reappeared on the scene looking rather flustered.
He kept glancing back at the tightly shut door of the inner room, "The thing is, the old cow used to pull the cart is sick. I’m afraid it can’t deliver the furniture today. Why don’t you wait for a couple of days? Once the cow recovers, I’ll deliver the furniture to you straight away, how does that sound?"
Mrs. Qin-Chen, who was peeking through the door crack, wore a grin full of malice.
You’re capable of bargaining, aren’t you? You wouldn’t even let me take a tiny advantage, would you?
I won’t make it easy for you either!
You’ve just moved to your new home and you’re looking forward to sleeping in a new bed, dream on!
I’ll just delay it as long as I want, and only deliver the furniture when I feel like it. You can just sleep on the floor in the meantime!
That’s how I can get rid of my resentment against you!
"The old cow fell ill? What a coincidence!"
The three people, Qin Yi among them, asked in unison, all turning their heads to look at Su Pan’er.
Su Pan’er frowned at Chen Laoshi and as soon she saw his shifty eyes, she instantly understood everything.
This must be the handiwork of that hateful second sister-in-law!
Moreover, with so much delay and so many variables, it would not be good if they discovered the secret in the large bed!
Thinking of this, she ordered Chen Laoshi and then turned to walk outside, "Move the furniture out to the front of the store. I’ll figure out how to transport it."
"Pan’er, Pan’er."
Qin Yi quickly ran after her, followed by Qin Yueshi who was also pulling Shuang’er along. They all left the warehouse together.
Chen Laoshi wanted to call out to them, but he could only open and close his mouth, looking regretful, before lowering his head and sighing deeply.
Standing in front of the Chen family’s furniture shop, Qin Yueshi looked troubled, "This bed is so large and there’s so much furniture. Without a cow cart, how are we going to transport it all this way? If we go ourselves to find a cart, wouldn’t that be another unnecessary expenditure? Why don’t I go back in and look for the second younger sister to borrow a cart?"
With that said, she turned around and tried to go back in.
"Don’t bother, elder sister-in-law."
Su Pan’er quickly stopped her.
"Elder sister-in-law, haven’t you figured it out yet? The second sister-in-law is deliberately making things difficult for us. Please stay here and keep an eye out for me. Make sure they don’t damage the furniture while moving it. I’ll go and find a cow cart. It’s just a small expense."
She’d rather rent a cow cart from outside than waste any more breath on Mrs. Qin-Chen.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yueshi was fuming, "This is just too much, we’re family after all! Can’t she have some decency? I’ll go find her!"
"Forget it, what’s the point of arguing with someone like her? It would just upset us more."
Su Pan’er quickly stopped her, "Moreover, wouldn’t she just hide from us by sending her brother out? Even if you go, you won’t be able to find her."
Qin Yueshi thought about it and agreed, "Alright, you go find a cart quickly. I’ll make sure to watch them handling item carefully here and won’t let them damage the furniture even a bit!"
"With elder sister-in-law on the job, I can rest easy." Su Pan’er smiled.
"Third auntie, Shuang’er also wants to go with you."
Little Shuang’er held onto Su Pan’er’s hand and refused to let go.
"Alright, you can come with us!"
Su Pan’er readily agreed, picked up little Shuang’er and turned to leave. Qin Yi quickly followed her.
