Chapter 103: Chapter 103 A Token of Affection_1

Qin Yi "pfft" burst into laughter. The hearty laughter from his mouth instantly made Su Pan’er’s chubby cheeks a shade of blush.

"What are you laughing at? Are your teeth not white enough? Be careful, old lady here might feed you pig’s snout directly!"

She rolled her eyes at him and made a fist gesture.

The present Qin Yi wasn’t scared by Su Pan’er’s threat at all. On the contrary, his laughter grew louder: "Really going to feed me pig’s snout? I wonder how it tastes, I’d like to try!"

Su Pan’er’s cheeks became redder, she couldn’t help but crossed her brows!

"Cheh, who wants to bother with you!"

After saying that, she turned her head and continued to look at the old couple. After Qin Yi’s distraction, the two elders suppressed their laughter and looked at Su Pan’er with curiosity.

Su Pan’er coughed twice, "Old man, count how many rice cakes there are, I’ll take them all!"

The result of taking them all was Su Pan’er holding a large bag of rice cakes, munching while walking, thoroughly enjoying the snack.

Compared to Su Pan’er, Qin Yi was much more refined.

He was carefully chewing the three rice cakes wrapped in paper in his hand, proceeding alongside Su Pan’er. Qin Shuan’er was also holding a rice cake, her big watery eyes squinted into crescents.

"Third auntie, this rice cake is really good, it’s fragrant and glutinous, it’s so delicious!"

"If it’s delicious, eat more. There is more in my bag once you finish."

Su Pan’er patted Shuan’er’s head and casually asked, "Didn’t your mother buy you any when she brought you to the market before?"

Shuan’er’s eyes darkened, and she shook her head slightly, "Mom’s silver from embroidery, she had to give it to my grandmother. If it was less, grandmother would scold her, so... "

What a pitiful child.

"Don’t be afraid. If you want to eat more in the future, come find your third auntie. I’ll buy for you."

Little Shuan’er’s eyes immediately brightened!

"Thank you, third auntie!"

Chatting and laughing, the trio arrived at the front of the rice grain store.

Looking at the wide variety of grains, Su Pan’er’s eyes lit up! Everyday, all she had was corn or wild vegetable mixed grain porridge. She was turning vegetal. She terribly missed white rice and white flour buns from her past life.

She immediately stepped forward to check it out.

"Boss, how much is the rice per pound?"

The boss, who was welcoming other customers, turned around when he heard this, spotted Su Pan’er and Qin Yi, and hurried over with a beaming smile: "Oh! So it’s you, Qin Yi? Here to buy rice?"

Qin Yi straightened his clothes and greeted, "Qin Yi pays respects to Seventh Uncle." Again introducing Su Pan’er, "Pan’er, this is Seventh Uncle, who lives behind our village. This is his rice grain shop."

Su Pan’er’s eyes gleamed, she nodded with a slight smile, "Seventh Uncle."

"So, this is your newly wedded wife? Good, very good."

Seventh Uncle looked at Su Pan’er, showering her with praise: "You guys take your time and choose carefully, when you’ve made your decision, Seventh Uncle will give you the best price. No worries! We’re all fellow villagers, I won’t overcharge you guys!"

Hearing him vouch, Su Pan’er couldn’t help but recall Mrs. Qin-Chen’s words earlier and vigilantly eyed the people around them.

"How do you sell this rice?"

"For your family, which kind of rice would you like? New rice is 680 cash coins per market stone, broken rice is 480 cash coins per market stone, aged rice is 380 cash coins per market stone, moldy rice is 280 cash coins per market stone. Which one would you like and how many?"

"Obviously, new rice! Let’s get five market stones first. We also need to buy flour, Fifth Uncle, can you give us a discount?"

Su Pan’er pointed at the new rice and then at the flour.

"White flour is 600 cash coins per market stone, if you buy a lot, as we are all fellow villager, Seventh Uncle can help you deliver the goods."

That’s so kind?

Seeing Seventh Uncle offering to deliver the goods, Su Pan’er was somewhat incredulous!

After experiencing Mrs. Qin-Chen’s incident, she was left with a lingering sense of caution, akin to being once bitten, twice shy.

"Pan’er, isn’t this a bit too much rice flour?"

Qin Yi leaned forward, somewhat disapproving.

"Before we split the stove, the entire Qin Family used no more than one market stone of rice per year. You’re buying all this..."

Su Pan’er gave him a stern look!

"I said five stone, so it’s five stone! Don’t worry, it won’t bankrupt you. Besides, this money spent on buying rice and flour is earned by me." She then turned back to the boss, her round face filled with a squinting smile, "Seventh Uncle, we are all villagers. Can you please give me a discount?"

At these words, Qin Yi’s face darkened!

The smile on Seventh Uncle also froze on his face, he glanced at the surrounding crowd weighing the grains, somewhat hesitant.

"It’s not that I, Seventh Uncle, do not want to give a discount to Qin Yi’s family, but our rice and grain are the most affordable even in the entire Yongze County. Regarding the price, I really cannot give any discount."

Su Pan’er raised her eyebrows!

Ran into another stingy miser?

Qin Yi was so embarrassed that he wished he could crawl into a crack in the ground, hurriedly reaching over to give Su Pan’er’s sleeve a tug.

His face went red: "Seventh Uncle, please do not misunderstand. Pan’er just arrived home, there are many things she does not understand..."

"Haha ... no problem, no problem!"

Seventh Uncle laughed heartily, dismissively waved his hand, "Your newlywed wife has just arrived and doesn’t know me, it’s understandable. I haven’t congratulated you on your wedding yet, so I will give you some coarse grains as a gift. How about it?"

"Thank you very much, Seventh Uncle."

Qin Yi bowed in gratitude, repeatedly thanking him.

This turn of events baffled Su Pan’er.

When Seventh Uncle had someone load up the rice and grain, Qin Yi quickly pulled Su Pan’er aside: "Seventh Uncle has been running this grain store for decades and has always been fair and honest. He’s not like other grain shops, who mark up their prices and use a big scoop to take it in and a small scoop to give it out. Today he even gave us coarse grain, I’m afraid he’s going to lose money."

Is he really that good?

Su Pan’er squinted at Seventh Uncle. Who would go into business with the intention of not making money?

"You..."

Qin Yi laughed: "Were you scared by Second Sister-in-law’s attitude just now, and afraid that Seventh Uncle would be the same kind of person? Rest assured! Seventh Uncle is an honest man, everyone in the village knows it. All the villagers who come to the market to sell grain buy from Seventh Uncle."

Su Pan’er was still somewhat skeptical.

"Foolish girl, are you here to sell grain at the market today too?"

An familiar old voice sounded behind her.

"Uncle Siao?"

Su Pan’er turned her head to see Uncle Siao from her maiden village and asked with surprise: "Uncle Siao, you came to the market today too?"

"Yes, yes."

Uncle Siao smiled: "The child who was doing corvée labor on the riverbank has returned home, so I came to the market to buy some white flour and pork to make dumplings or something."

"So it’s Brother Dabao who’s back!"

Su Pan’er beamed with joy: "Congratulations, Uncle Siao."

Uncle Siao’s face split with a broad smile, "You’re here to buy grain too? The shopkeeper here is the most honest one in the whole market, you’ve come to the right place."

Su Pan’er was stunned, and saw Qin Yi looking at her with a teasing smile.

Lately, she kept encountering some rather eccentric characters, so it was no wonder she had doubts!

"Help Woman, help! Please save me!"

Just then, she heard the desperate pleading of the little Bama pig.
