Chapter 145: Help Me Do Something

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zeng Qing took out his money without hesitation. He had already taken out a few hundred taels of silver. Was there a need to consider so much for a few hundred copper coins?

After sending Zeng Qing off, Jiao Yuying pulled Su Li into the house.

“Mother, what’s wrong?” Su Li asked.

Jiao Yuying said in a low voice, “Daughter, your father and I have decided to plant chili peppers on all our family’s land. We will still grow crops in the paddy field.”

Planting those things in the fields was not useful at all. They could not earn a few copper coins a year, and they worked themselves to death all day. Since chili was so profitable, why didn’t they plant chili?

Moreover, they still had a way out. If the chili harvest was not good, there was still food in the field, they did not have to worry about starving to death.

Su Li’s idea was to plant chili in large quantities. She had to take things one step at a time. After all, one was always afraid of risks before she tasted the sweetness.

“Alright, you guys just focus on planting. Leave the rest to me.”

Su Li took out the golden chain today and looked at it. Riceball looked at the golden chain and drooled. Was this chain going to be hung around its neck?

If it was wearing this chain, it should be more impressive than the previous thing.

Su Li put away the golden necklace and shattered Rice Ball’s fantasy. “This necklace is too heavy. I’ll help you put it away first and return it to you when you grow up.”

If he let Riceball take this golden necklace out for a walk, he would probably be killed as soon as he left the door.

Riceball was speechless. Why did it feel that what Su Li said was not very reliable?

“Woof woof woof- I’ Riceball protested.

Su Li patted its head and said, “Objection is invalid. It’s settled. If you really want an accessory, I’ll find another for you later.”

Riceball looked at Su Li aggrievedly.

Su Li continued to refuse. “It’s useless to act cute.

Seeing that it was useless with Su Li, Riceball ran to He Qingmu and wheedled.

He Qingmu said helplessly, “Riceball, I can’t help you. Besides, that golden necklace is too precious. What if someone else takes it? It’s better to hand it to Mother for safekeeping.”

He Qingyao also said, “That’s right. It’s better to let Mother keep it in case someone captures you later. Not only will they take away the golden necklace, but they will also eat you.”

Riceball was speechless. Why did he feel even more aggrieved?

Su Li smiled and turned to go for a walk.

After walking around, she turned a corner and went to Shi Haishan’s house. Yao Jun was delivering food to Shi Haishan. When he saw Su Li, his eyes lit up.

“Boss, you’re here.”

“Yes. How is he?”

“He’s pretty good. He can eat, drink, and sleep!”

As they spoke, they walked into the house.

Shi Haishan had recovered his energy. He was leaning against the bed and looking at them.

“Su, Su…” Shi Haishan looked at Su Li and called out for a long time, but he could not figure it out.

He felt that it was not appropriate to call Su Li her name.

Yao Jun rolled his eyes. “What Su? Call her Boss.”

Shi Haishan nodded. “Hello, Boss.”
