“Woah,” Yu Hongyan grabbed Liu Guixia’s hand tightly, “I never dreamed that one day we would have a hundred silver at home.”
“Me too,” Liu Guixia immediately said. After she finished speaking, she patted her fifth son’s shoulder heavily, “Wufu, you did it!”
Xue Wufu was overjoyed by his mother’s praises.
Suddenly, his mother’s face turned serious. “Although we’ve earned a lot of money from selling the bear, you are still banned from hunting in the mountains anymore. Do you hear me?”
“I know, I know. How many times have you told me this? Ever since I came back from the mountains, you’ve been telling me this all day. My ears are getting worms.
“I told you I was scared too. I knew I was lucky that day. I only got this little injury and didn’t die. I definitely won’t do it again next time. Why would I want to go back? I still have a long life to live.”
“It’s good that you can think like this.” Liu Guixia was relieved.
Xue Wufu put his arm on Xue Yan’s shoulder and said happily, “Xue Yan, that dream of yours was truly amazing. There really was a blind bear, and I really did encounter it. I’m sorry, I didn’t listen to you this time and almost lost my life. I promise you, no matter what you say in the future, I’ll believe you.”
Xue Yan only thought his fifth brother was joking and didn’t take it seriously. On the contrary, his thoughts had drifted far away.
He was wondering if Jiang Yue had cried. He also knew that it would be too difficult for her to cry, but he knew his father and the others quite well. They were good to the younger ones in the family. As long as the younger ones cried, they would listen to everything they asked for.
If he were to cry, he wouldn’t be beaten up when he returned, right?
When he made her cry, he had a feeling that she would beat him up with that expression.
Thinking of this, Xue Yan immediately shook his head. He knew that he was just as loved as Jiang Yue.
Although she seemed to like using force to solve all problems, she was always within reason. His family would eventually understand why he was so worried and insisted that Jiang Yue go with them.
Thinking of this, Xue Yan let out a sigh of relief.
…
When Jiang Yue, Xue Dafu, and the others returned to the village on the ox cart, the sun had not set yet. However, everyone they met congratulated them.
“Congratulations, Dafu. I heard it’s a hundred silver. Your family is rich.”
“That’s right, Dafu. Congratulations. We didn’t expect your family to be the first to get rich in our village.”
“Dafu, how does your family plan to spend so much money?”
“Rich, rich…”
Jiang Yue’s expression was calm when she heard that it was a hundred silver. However, she felt that it was strange. They had just returned, and the village already knew that the blind bear had sold it for a hundred silver.
Xue Dafu and the others were shocked, and they asked, “How did you know that the bear was sold for a hundred silver?!”
A young man immediately said, “Isn’t it all because of that big mouth of w.a.n.g Sufen? She said that she saw you guys sending the blind bear to a restaurant in town and sold it for a hundred silver. When she came back, she went around telling everyone, afraid that others wouldn’t know.”
Jiang Yue finally understood that someone had seen her.
“Why is that w.a.n.g Sufen like this?” Xue Erfu was very unhappy.
Xue Dafu and Xue Yifu also thought that w.a.n.g Sufen had a big mouth, but this time she was telling the truth. The blind bear really had been sold for a hundred silver, so they could only keep smiling and not say anything.
He returned to his home amidst everyone’s congratulations.
They had made quite a ruckus in the village this time. Liu Guixia and the others had naturally heard it. When the men and Jiang Yue came home, the women had already come out of the courtyard and were waiting at the entrance.
