Chapter 172: [Bonus ]life Was Good

Lin Rui understood that Su Wan was showing her care for him and smiled a little helplessly "
Alright , I won't trouble you now Wan Wan . But really your idea was really good ! At this time most people have just planted in their seeds but our vegetable field is ready to be harvested and sold ! Once we take these vegetables in the town those rich missies and masters will buy them in a breath !"
In this period there were no greenhouses and the people here didn't know better techniques . The rich masters and madams in the capital  though had their own hot springs and could use them to plant vegetables in winter . However , finding a natural geothermal in small village like Dong Tong was a real stroke of luck ! This was why it was near to impossible for anyone to plant vegetables in the winter and sell them . 
Su Wan smiled and nodded " that's right , this time we are going to make a big fortune " then she motioned Lin Jing to come over and help her while she pushed Lin Rui to go back and continue studying . Together Su Wan and Lin Jing started harvesting vegetables , because they were working together it didn't take long for them to carefully dig out the greens . Then they took the vegetables and brought them to the courtyard where they started washing them all one by one , Su Wan took the vegetables from Lin Jing as the latter insisted that she shouldn't spend long time in cold water , thus she had no choice but to take the vegetables from Lin Jing,  dry them before carefully stocking them in a bamboo basket . 
The green lettuce and bok choy looked extremely delicious with water droplets dripping down them . It looked so fresh and juicy that Su Wan had to swallow her saliva - from the past few days she has been eating nothing but meat , mushrooms and radishes - though the village people liked having meat in their meal and considered it as a sign of good times . Su Wan has  really started to miss  the freshness of leafy vegetables after gnawing on fatty meat for months . 
" I think we should have some Buddha's delight tonight " said Su Wan , she could use some of her own home grown bok choy , napa cabbage and snow peas . These were her own home grown vegetables weren't they ? So it didn't matter if she smuggled a small stock for herself and cooked some delicious food for herself and her family . And because Lin Chen liked to eat meat but she could buy some pork while returning from the town , and there were the fish in the kitchen left from morning . 
She could prepare so many good dishes ! Just the thought of this was enough to make her drool with anticipation .

" Buddha 's delight ?" said Mother Lin surprised she exchanged a look with her eldest son and sounded a little hesitant. She knew that Su Wan would come with new dishes with the least amount of ingredients ,however Mother Lin was a little hesitant because one look at the juicy vegetables and she knew that they could earn a lot of money from it . 
Not only these vegetables were unique because they were being sold in the winter , they looked so lush and delicious that Mother Lin knew that they would fetch a good price . 
Lin Jing was aware of his mother's thoughts and he too felt that it was regrettable to keep a batch of such good vegetables at home but he also knew that Su Wan was the one who came up with this idea of growing vegetables - and he also didn't want to upset his wife . So he thought about it and carefully spoke in a manner so that neither Su Wan or his mother would get offended " mother , we are working from dawn to dusk so that we can eat well aren't we ? And there is also the money from the restaurant its not like that we don't have any other earning except these vegetables , right ? We can afford to indulge a little and Wan Wan won't be taking a large stock right Wan Wan ?" He hurriedly asked Su Wan who was both amused and shocked - this was the first time she heard Lin Jing speak so many words . 
Su Wan wasn't the only one amused mother Lin was amused , she looked at her son with an incredibly cute frown and said " you child , you won't say a word when your mother wants to talk to you but the second your wife is concerned , you said so many words - alright , alright , your mother is a money grubber ?" However after hearing what her son said Mother Lin came to a realisation that after fighting for every single penny and saving every single cent from eating cornbread to rice gruel - She has gotten used to saving in everything . Her son's words were right they are working so hard because they want to have a comfortable life , where they can sleep with a full stomach and be warm in the winter - if she started to haggle at every inch then how will her children have a good life ? 
Lin Jing hearing his mother's words had a speechless expression - what  wrong did he do ? Didn't he speak in the most tactful and careful manner ? How come his mother was still offended calling herself a money grubber  ? 
Su Wan and Lin Rui stared at Lin Jing 's dumbfounded and helpless expression , the two of them exchanged a glance with each other and then burst out in giggles . Even mother Lin who was staring at her son chuckled , leaving Lin Jing even more bemused - but a little while later , he shook his head and laughed as well . 
Su Wan who was giggling , looked around at Lin Jing who was laughing and Lin Rui who was chuckling with Mother Lin ,and all of a sudden a thought came in her mind - life was really good .Wasn't it ?
