I’ll take whatever’s left

"Wow! Little poppet, you're studying medicine now? Can you understand it? Medicine isn't easy to learn!" Village Chief Liu Jinfu exclaimed in surprise.

"I can understand, hmm, Aunt Wanrong said I'm very talented at learning medicine." The little child looked naive, laying the groundwork in advance for her future display of medical skills.

"Really? Good, that's great. You must study hard so we'll have a doctor in Xinghua Village. Brother Liu, your Nannan is really something. You are blessed!"

Grandpa Liu grinned from ear to ear. "Hahaha, this little one is just boasting. Let her learn first. As to whether she can become a doctor later depends on her own efforts. But my Nannan is indeed smart!"

He started modest and not boasting, but ended up boasting again.

The proud look of the old man made Liu Yusheng purse her lips and giggle.

As for Qian Wanjin, he didn't take the little baby's words seriously at all. His obesity was called rich fat; the fatter he was, the more he was blessed.

Look at the poor people, was there anyone with his body size?

Lunch at home was ready.

When the group returned home, Grandma Liu had just taken off her apron and was about to go call them back.

The food on the table was sumptuous, steamed pork ribs, pork leg in sauce, stir-fried pork belly with vegetables… the aroma was mouth-watering.

Grandpa Liu happily fished out a jar of fruit wine and served it to the village chief. Except for Nannan, everyone had a share.

Village Chief, Liu Jinfu, tasted it for the first time and sighed, "It tastes really good. I didn't expect the wine made from wild grapes to be so tasty. It tastes better than highly refined rice wine. Brother Liu, it's only fitting that you could build up a family fortune."

No wonder a nobleman would be willing to come to Xinghua Village to build a winery. It was for the Liu's fruit wine.

"Whether we could amass a fortune or not, this is fresh stuff that Nannan has whipped up. Drink more if it's good. There's more at home. I'll give you a jar when you go back!" Grandpa Liu smiled.

"Fine, I won't be polite to you. I've had cravings for this wine since the first sip!"

Laughter abounded.

On the other hand, just after sniffing the scent of fruit wine, Qian Wanjin leaned into Liu Yusheng's ear and said between gritted teeth, "Blessed Baby, your family even hid wine! Didn't you sell them all to me? I'll take whatever's left later!"

The thousands of jars he brought back weren't enough to sell. He didn't expect that the Liu family had a private stash!

He must get his hands on all the wine no matter what! That was all silver! One small jar could bring him nearly 10 taels!

Looking at the circle of people around the table, one by one, sipping the fruit wine into their mouths, his heart ached.

What they were drinking was his silver!

Liu Yusheng looked at Qian Wanjin speechlessly, the corners of her mouth couldn't stop twitching, "That's the last little bit left in my house. It's not for sale. We keep it for the family to drink."
