The young wife selected two grass carp, known for their thick flesh and few bones, tasty whether they're steamed or boiled.
Qiao Duo'er weighed the fish for her. The two carp came to a total of eight jin, costing thirty-two wen, but seeing as they were all village folks, she let the change slide.
The young wife was delighted and immediately reached for her purse to count out the money.
"Sister-in-law, I've finally caught up with you today!"
Sun Erhu was quite familiar with this young wife; she was Luo Clan, the wife of his other brother Dàlín, who had married into the family last year and was known for her good nature.
The young wife blushed. She was pregnant and had some bleeding at the start, which kept her bedridden for three months.
Now that the pregnancy had stabilized, she could finally get out of bed.
If it weren't for hearing Aunt Huang say that Fourth Brother Tan was selling fish, she surely would have stayed quietly in the yard.
