After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 48

Chapter 48 Fraud (1st update)

At about the same time, two men in soap official uniforms came out and took charge of the town.

Someone else opened the cowshed door behind him and led the cows out one after another.

First show each cow, then mark it with a wooden sign, write the price, and want to pay to buy it.

Of course, everyone has to negotiate the price.

Qin Yao did not see the cow being killed and knew that there was nothing she wanted here, so she raised her leg and kicked Liu Ji who wanted to go up and see the cow.

“Let's go to the slaughterhouse!” Qin Yao said.

Liu Ji endured the pain in his calf. He looked at the cows and shook his head, acting like he was dissatisfied. Then he turned around and followed the steps of the five mothers.

With such gloomy expressions, the four Dalang brothers and sisters, who were originally smiling, noticed something was wrong with the adults and restrained themselves.

Biting the first one, the sugar coating was crunchy, mixed with the sour and crunchy hawthorn, and it tasted pretty good.

He was a little annoyed, so he picked up the load of charcoal he had bought and strode forward without saying a word.

Qin Yao also looked curiously at Lin Erbao, who was holding a little girl. The loving look he looked at the little girl was not the fierce debt collector she had seen before.

Liu Ji thought he was asking him to buy one. He glanced at Qin Yao first and when she nodded, he stopped the man selling candied haws, put Sanlang and Siniang down, and bought one for each of the four of them.

Qin Yao nodded, "It's delicious." He motioned to the little girl to try it quickly.

When Liu Ji saw him, he was frightened and his whole body was frightened.

Dalang smiled, but still reminded him: "Dad, you have never raised us for a day. Ever since I was born, you have ignored family affairs and always ran to the city. Every time you come home, you ask mother for money. Since then, I didn't get a penny from my family, it was my mother who raised me.”

“Still buying?” Liu Ji clutched his deflated money bag, but he couldn't buy any more! Qin Yao snorted at him.

They also came to buy charcoal. They had already bought all the charcoal. Lin Erbao put the basket full of charcoal on his back and prepared to say goodbye to Qin Yao and his family.

Qin Yao bought the tendons of two cows and spent fifty cash.

As soon as Liu Ji heard this, he knew that she had pulled out all her private parts.

While buying charcoal, I unexpectedly met an acquaintance.

“Aniang, is it delicious?” Siniang asked expectantly.

Qin Yao remembered something and motioned to him to take a step to speak, and asked Liu Ji what he wanted to borrow money from in the first place.

Qin Yao also ate one.

“Lin Erbao, why are you here?”

Qin Yao was most annoyed to see him looking like this, so she nodded impatiently.

Since it was her daughter's kindness, Qin Yao did not refuse.

After buying it, he never forgot to tell Qin Yao: "Eight cents, remember to replenish it later. This is our family's food money."

Liu Jibing went to the doctor in a hurry, but he really believed it, and immediately ran to borrow money and handed it to the "good brother", but he took the money and ran away.

They are killed and sold now, and stalls are set up for free trade.

The fourth lady had a small mouth and could not bite. She was so stimulated by the sugar that she drooled. In the end, she had to lick the hard sugar coating before taking a small bite of the hawthorn.

Qin Yao nodded and glanced at the little girl next to her.

Moreover, he was not the only one who was deceived. He was also deceived along with several other poor students in the academy.

It's better now, one person each, happiness comes so suddenly, and the smile is so bright.

“Dad, who are they?” the little girl asked Lin Erbao curiously.

　　This little appearance was too painful, so Qin Yao picked her up.

After eating two more candied haws, Qin Yao sighed with satisfaction, "Not bad, I will buy it next time."

Seeing Qin Yao eating it made her happier than eating it herself.

The answer Lin Erbao gave was a bit surprising to Qin Yao.

Unexpectedly, Dalang and Erlang also imitated the same, and insisted that Qin Yao also try theirs.

Qin Yao smiled, she was not polite. Who can say no to snacks?

Twenty taels of silver is not a small amount.

Qin Yao was walking in front. When she heard these words, she turned around in surprise.

For the money he paid, he still didn't get to eat even one candied haws. It's unjust!

“Father, here you go.” Dalang saw that his father was really pitiful, and he was also afraid that his stepmother would dislike him because of his resentment, so he gave him the two candied haws in his hand to appease him.

“Dalang, daddy's support for you is not in vain.” Liu Ji put his arm around his eldest son's shoulders and said happily.

Qin Yao suddenly turned around and picked him up as well.

Lin Erbao saw Qin Yao as the breadwinner and asked with a smile: "Mrs. Qin, are you going to the city to buy new year's goods?"

Qin Yao felt that she was pretty lucky. There was a cow-killer today, and she even killed two of them.

“A'niang, you eat first.” Siniang stepped on her feet, raised the candied haws high, and looked at Qin Yao expectantly.

“Dad's friend.”

Liu Ji is actually quite easy to coax, no, he immediately licked the candied haws like Siniang, showing a satisfied smile.

The four children also made faces at him.

Watching Lin Erbao and his daughter go away, Qin Yao turned back and looked meaningfully at Liu Ji, who was obviously flustered, and said word by word: "There will be no pie in the sky, only a trap!"

But others were not as courageous as Liu Ji. He only borrowed five taels, and his family also had land mortgaged, so nothing happened.

In an instant, she felt like a fish on the chopping board, lying naked in front of her, with no privacy at all.

The most important thing about entering the city was successfully completed. Qin Yao was in a good mood. She returned to the five father and son waiting on the street. While going to buy charcoal, she took a few children for a stroll.

Beef is the most difficult to come across, because cattle are of great value. Unless the cattle are sick and dead or can no longer work, they will be brought in and slaughtered.

The liar told Liu Ji that he knew someone in the government office, and Liu Ji was literate, so he planned to recommend him to get a job in the county government office.

The disappointment on Sanlang's face instantly turned into surprise, and he handed the candied haws to her mouth like a treasure.

The red hawthorns are wrapped in a layer of shiny sugar syrup, which looks particularly attractive.

The little girl looks to be seven or eight years old. She is neatly dressed and is well taken care of by her family.

Liu Ji covered his heart and was hit hard.

Si Niang was held in her father's arms. She looked up to her. She was the first to spot the candied haws seller and immediately tugged on her father's collar, “Dad, buy candied haws!”

　　It's not gambling or drinking wine, it's just being cheated.

“Oh.” The little girl didn't ask again.

Morning is the busiest time in the slaughterhouse, and most of the pigs, cattle and sheep in the city are slaughtered here at this time.

The smile on Liu Ji's face froze for an instant. The father and son looked at each other. Dalang looked away first, and both father and son fell silent.

This was a sweet and sour taste that she had never tasted before. Siniang's eyes lit up and she said "Wow".

Saburo held up the candied haws and followed her for a while. Seeing that his aunt didn't notice him, the little guy felt lost.

Dalang, brother and sister were so happy that they did not expect their father to pay for it. They originally wanted to use the two cents they had received from teaching their father how to cook to buy one for themselves.

Qin Yao pushed Sanlang and Siniang into his arms, "There are many people, please watch the children and wait for me."

“Let's go, I'll treat you to something delicious.”

Qin Yao was talking about the wonton stall at the gate of the city. She had eaten at it last time and it tasted great.
