Chapter 137: Chapter 137 Price is Up to You_1 Chapter 137: Chapter 137 Price is Up to You_1 “Yesterday he was already able to eat a bowl of porridge with fernted bean curd, and his complexion was also better than before, but unfortunately we finished the last of the fernted bean curd yesterday, and you did not go out to sell any more. This morning my father had no appetite again. After asking around, I found out that you live in Jiuping Village, so I shalessly ca here, hoping to buy so fernted bean curd from you.”
An Jing exchanged a look with Xiao Changyi before smiling and saying, “Young Master Wang, we do have so fernted bean curd stored, but it is saved for our own consumption.”
Wang Youbao imdiately got up and bowed, saying, “You can set the price; I’ll pay however much it costs. Please, you must sell so to ! My father really wants to eat this fernted bean curd!”
Indeed, a filial son.
An Jing’s smile then beca much more genuine. “I can spare about two taels of the fernted bean curd we have saved for our own use. My husband and I are already making new batches. It should be ready in about five or six days, and then we’ll go to the market to sell it. If you want more at that ti, you can buy from at the market or co to our house.”
“I am truly grateful,” Wang Youbao made a bow again before sitting down, his sincerity evident. After a mont, he asked, “Then, how much for the price…?”
“Ten coins a tael.”
Wang Youbao was startled. He had thought he’d be charged an exorbitant amount, but the price was still the sa as usual.
Yu Daming was also astonished. If it were him, he would have taken the opportunity to fleece Young Master Wang thoroughly!
An Jing did not look at them any longer but took Xiao Changyi to the kitchen and weighed out two taels of fernted bean curd before returning.
An Jing: “Two taels, twenty coins.”
Xiao Changyi handed over the neatly wrapped two taels of fernted bean curd to Wang Youbao, who imdiately stood up to receive it with both hands.
Receiving it, Wang Youbao felt sowhat apprehensive.
For so reason, even though the man had not said a word, he couldn’t ignore his presence. He felt an air of authority from him that made him unable to feel comfortable receiving it while sitting, and he was even a little afraid.
As soon as he took the fernted bean curd, Wang Youbao handed it over to Yu Daming to hold.
“Are you two really only asking for twenty coins?” Wang Youbao still found it hard to believe that these two weren’t taking the chance to fleece him. It seed like a good opportunity.
An Jing found it rather amusing.
If this person had been disagreeable, she wouldn’t have fleeced him—she would have told him to leave and not sold him the fernted bean curd at all.
But this man was not only a filial son but also quite cultured. He had never looked down on them, despite them being farr’s children; of course, she would sell to him and fulfill his act of filial piety.
“What, you want to haggle with ? I’ll have you know, ten coins a tael is already the lowest price!” An Jing said teasingly.
Wang Youbao imdiately waved his hands in panic, “No, no, no, that’s not what I ant. I just thought that since you’re selling from your personal stock, it should be a bit more expensive.”
An Jing casually adjusted her sleeve and spoke indifferently, “That’s what you think, but it has nothing to do with us.”
Wang Youbao fell silent at once, his gaze shifting back and forth between An Jing and Xiao Changyi.
Ever since he had seen them, even though they were both dressed in simple cloth clothes, he felt that they were different, not at all like the children of a farr.
As he brought his gaze back, Wang Youbao quickly took out twenty coins from his money pouch and placed them on the table, adding, “I have opened an inn in the town. I would like to buy fernted bean curd from you in the future to serve as a dish in my inn. What do you both think of this idea?”
