My Dear Wife, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 1133 - 1139: Is it a pig?

Qiao Duo’er grew even more suspicious. It had only been five meals since the day before yesterday, including two breakfasts. How much could Wang Yun and a child possibly eat?

"Here is the ledger, you may take a look," the shopkeeper said, considerately bringing out the ledger.

He knew it would be hard for anyone to believe, so he had prepared in advance.

The ledger was clearly written, understandable at a glance to anyone literate.

Chen Yi Ling, hearing Qiao Duo’er make several comments, also glanced curiously.

After looking, she couldn’t help saying, "Duo’er, are you raising two pigs?"

For just one adult and a child to order six dishes and two soups in one meal, with hardly any vegetarian options, how could normal people eat that much?

Qiao Duo’er’s lips twitched involuntarily. She wanted to ask which family’s pigs ate caterpillar fungus and ginseng every day?

The Niu Family was not excessively rich, this... shouldn’t be the lifestyle of Wang Yun and her child.

The Tan Family had saved some money, but whose silver was blown in by the wind?

Couldn’t they be a bit more frugal when spending?

"Madam, it’s not that we are being ungenerous, but your guests are too wasteful. Our worker reminded them not to order too much, but that lady said her child needed to nourish his body well, and in the end, most of the food was thrown away," the shopkeeper said weakly.

He could assure that the workers in the restaurant would never encourage customers to spend more. If someone insisted on burning their silver, they could not stop them.

Qiao Duo’er tapped her index finger on the table, feeling she should ask the doctor to check Wang Yun’s eyes.

Niu Zijun was already quite chubby, but she seemed to always believe her child was malnourished and must be seriously blind.

"You need to decide quickly, there are other guests waiting for a room." The shopkeeper urged.

Qiao Duo’er mused for a moment, "From now on, provide them with food at the cost of one tael of silver per day, and each meal should not exceed three dishes and a soup. If they have additional demands, let them pay out of their own pockets."

Three dishes and a soup were enough for an adult and a child, and one tael of silver was enough for them to eat well.

"The silver is paid by you, I will listen to you," the shopkeeper said, weighing his options and then agreeing.

However, he still felt this was being overly generous to the mother and child in the inn.

In order to prevent Wang Yun from going too far, Qiao Duo’er only gave five liang of silver this time. According to her plan, it should last until they moved.

Once they had their own courtyard, they would arrange for two rough maids, and then give them a fixed monthly allowance. This way, there would not be such a severe overspending incident again.

"The first time I met Ah Hong’s cousin, I felt she was not a good person. Now it seems I was right, you should be more cautious in the future," Chen Yi Ling reminded.

It was outrageous to be so arrogant while living under another’s roof. The only explanation was that they considered this place as their own home.

There’s a saying that a sister-in-law is half a mother-in-law, and mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships are the hardest to manage. It seemed there would be troubles ahead.

"Ah Hong is not foolish, he won’t let her make random decisions," Qiao Duo’er said, not taking this matter too seriously but feeling somewhat disgusted.

"Right, it would be difficult for anyone to wedge even a needle between you and Ah Hong, let alone a knife," Chen Yi Ling said, laughing.

Indeed, she had been worrying over nothing.

"Who’s trying to wedge a knife? Why would they wedge a knife?" Tangyuan, who had just come out from the study, asked curiously.

Chen Yi Ling smiled and explained, "It means there are people who are envious of your parents’ good relationship and try everything to drive a wedge between them, aiming to tear them apart."

"Dad and brother haven’t made Mom and Dad split up, who could possibly be so capable?" Tangyuan asked, tilting his head.
