“Why? Don't you believe that Eldest Uncle can return this? Eldest Uncle Ning pointed at the newly purchased food on the ground and asked with a smile.


“This thing is very heavy. If it was me, I might only be able to carry half a bag.” Ning Yue pointed towards the sack.


When the Ning family uncle saw this, he laughed out loud. “Yueyue is a woman, so you are a little weak. Usually Uncle can carry two to three hundred kilograms.”


Now is the time to escape. Looking at these foods, they are happy and naturally bring more.


“Wow! Great uncle!” Ning Yue pretended to admire him.


!!


As everyone exited the market, they met a group of people.


It looked like a wealthy family in this city. It is not known who was sitting in the sedan chair.


Ning Yue's eyes sparkled as she had an idea. He quickly said to the Ning family uncle, “Uncle, I will go and see him. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to pick something up.


With that, Ning Yue ran away.


Eldest Uncle Ning was about to stop him, but he had already run away. He had no choice but to shout at Ning Yue's back, Yueyue, be careful!


Ning Yue ran behind a group of people. When they left, he pretended to take something and quickly walked over to the Ning family's uncle's side. He whispered excitedly, “Uncle, I picked up something. Let's see what it is.”


Ning Yue found a secluded place and took out a wooden box wrapped in cloth.


Ning Yue lifted the cloth and opened the box. Ning Yue specifically chose this box in space. It was considered ordinary compared to the other boxes in space, but in the eyes of the Ning family uncle, that was not the case.


The eldest uncle of the Ning family, who had been a farmer all his life, had never seen anything as good as this. Eyes widened.


God, this box is definitely something good. Ning Yue's luck was too good!


Ning Yue quietly opened the box and a hairpin appeared.


“This hairpin is so beautiful!” The Ning family uncle's tone was excited, but his voice was not loud. Although he did not know how much it would cost, this hairpin was made of gold, so it was definitely worth it.


“Yueyue, I can save this for your dowry.”


“Uncle, it took a long time until I needed a dowry. Right now, we have to solve the food problem. Let's exchange it for money. Uncle, help me see how much it's worth.” Ning Yue handed the hairpin to her uncle.


He would take out some gold rings, but then he thought it would be better to have a hairpin. One is enough.


Eldest Uncle Ning weighed it in his hands and had a plan in his heart. “It's rather heavy. It should be exchangeable for a lot of money.”


“Then I leave this to Uncle. Please take it to the store for sale. Uncle, don't be so good. Remember to bargain with the store keeper.”


“Good!” Eldest Uncle Ning did not think too much about it. He picked up a hairpin and walked towards the store not far away.


Immediately, the eldest uncle of the Ning family walked over to Ning Yue's side with a smile.


“Do you know that when I go to the store and pull out this hairpin, their young lady at a glance loves it and offers fifty taels of silver?”


Fifty taels?


Ning Yue's eyes widened. He thought at most ten or twenty taels. He did not expect his uncle would sell it for fifty taels of silver.


Ning Yue blinked. He kept twenty taels to himself and put the remaining thirty taels into his uncle's hands. “Uncle, buy food. You can save the rest, ”said Ning Yue.


When the Ning family uncle heard this, he quickly refused. “No, it's your own money. I can't keep it!”


It was fine to take him out to buy food, but how could he keep his personal money? Moreover, Ning Yue was his junior!


“If Uncle doesn't save thirty taels of this silver, I don't want it either.” As she spoke, Ning Yue took out two taels of silver.


Seeing this, the Ning family's eldest uncle hurriedly pressed down on Ning Yue's arm. “Not no no. I'll take it.”


With the 30 taels that Ning Yue had given her, she could buy more food.


However, he also listened to Ning Yue and took out twenty taels to buy food first. He'll keep the remaining ten taels.


Ning Yue and the eldest uncle of the Ning family had bought a lot of food. If they were to bring everything out of the city at once, it would be too conspicuous. Therefore, they sent food first to the city gate. After Old Master Ning took the items away, they returned to the city to rest.
