My Princess Holds Superpowers

Chapter 63: How come you don’t give me some money?

Ye Jiu opened the storage compartment for the fruits, and a huge pile of fruits suddenly appeared on the vacant ground behind him.

There were peaches, apples, and also bananas and oranges, plus there were several types of fruits that Ye Jiu did not recognize, but presumably, they were also fruits from the Ancient Plane.

Since arriving in this world, apart from the sour wild fruits on the mountain, Ye Jiu had never eaten any fruits. He hadn’t noticed it earlier, but now seeing them made his mouth water almost uncontrollably.

Ye Jiu grabbed an apple, and if there was one difference between the fruits from the Ancient Plane and those he had seen before, it was their size!

It wasn’t just a little bigger, Ye Jiu, following the same, took an apple that was nearly the size of half his head, and the other fruits were not small either, looking as if they had undergone genetic mutations.

The fruits looked appealing, making Ye Jiu very satisfied, though he didn’t know how they tasted. If the taste could match up, that would be perfect.

These items were so pleasing to Ye Jiu that he couldn’t let go of them.

In his excitement, he sent the small steel knife and electric gun he had just exchanged with La Sike to Zha, and also taught him how to use them.

Having given away the weapons to Zha, Ye Jiu no longer had any means of defense for himself.

However, La Sike wasn’t online at the moment, so Ye Jiu didn’t randomly exchange the items with him.

She planned to wait until La Sike came online so that they could set the trade quantity and value before proceeding with the transaction. Otherwise, sending items haphazardly like now could eventually lead to an unsustainable trade between them.

The Plane trading space had a preservation function, so there was no need to worry about spoilage. Glancing reluctantly at the fruits on the ground one last time, Ye Jiu left the trading space.

It was a pity it was winter. Still, she thought even if it were autumn, she wouldn’t be able to bring out the items because they were simply too large; clearly not looking like wild items from the mountains, and there would be no way to explain them had she brought them out.

As soon as Ye Jiu regained his senses, he heard Old Man Ye coaxing He Shi, “Old woman, I just came out of that house. It’s so cold, and the blankets on Li Shi and Erya are both ragged and stiff. Erya is my daughter after all, she’s going to leave home in just a couple of years, you see…”

There was silence for a long while. Old Man Ye intended to make a proposal, but He Shi was unwilling to engage in his conversation, tending to her own sewing of shoe soles.

Old Man Ye grew a bit anxious, simply stating his purpose directly, “I was thinking of getting a new quilt for the mother and daughter, what do you think?”

”You’re the head of the family, whatever you decide to do, you don’t need to run it by me,” said He Shi sternly.

“So, does that mean you agree?” Old Man Ye brightened with a smile.

He Shi didn’t respond, but Old Man Ye didn’t mind. Considering he was in the wrong, the mere acceptance by his wife was already fortunate, “Well then, since you probably wouldn’t want to bother, just give me the money, and I’ll let them handle the purchase themselves.”

He Shi, with a stern face, threw the half-finished shoe sole she was working on onto the bed and looked up sarcastically at Old Man Ye, “Money? Do you, surnamed Ye, actually have an idea of how much money you can make? It’s yet uncertain about the fourth son’s marriage matters, I’m already worried about money, and you claim to be so capable. Why don’t you give me some money?”

Old Man Ye’s face turned slightly awkward, “Wasn’t it agreed that we would use Jiujiu’s ten taels of silver for the fourth son’s wife? Besides, Jiujiu gave you quite a bit of money yesterday. It wouldn’t take much to make an extra bed quilt.”
