Reincarnation: Rogue Husband Here

Chapter 33 - Trouble Is Coming

Lin Yuxing considered it and realized it was true; he was familiar with almost all the home-cooked dishes. A skilled chef could easily prepare them, so he nodded, “Alright, I'll show you how to enjoy five home-cooked dishes.”

In other words, he earned another ten silver taels. For an average family, this was a substantial sum. Building a simple house in the countryside would only cost about ten silver taels.

Upon hearing Yu's words, the shopkeeper was somewhat surprised. After all, no one wanted to eat boar water, let alone enjoy it, but this brother could cook many dishes with it. This was a source of wealth, making the shopkeeper think more highly of him.

So Lin Yuxing demonstrated to the shopkeeper how to prepare the vegetables for the pig's lung. When he took the wild boar meat and the boar water, it was nearly noon, so he quickly grabbed his bamboo basket and headed to the pharmacy.

The “Welcome” pharmacy was the town's renowned medicine shop, but the shopkeeper seemed a bit lethargic, suggesting the shop might not be open for much longer.

The shopkeeper didn't even lift his eyes when he saw Lin Yuxing enter. To him, this lad from the countryside was probably here to sell some common medicinal herbs, the kind that were abundant at the foot of the mountain. He had plenty of such goods, so he wasn't very interested.

“Shopkeeper, do you buy medicinal materials here?” Lin Yuxing asked politely. A good attitude was crucial for success.

The shop owner was about to dismiss him when he heard Lin Yuxing's clear and cheerful voice. Reluctantly, he said, “We do buy, but it's only worth a copper coin per catty.”

Lin Yuxing could sense the shopkeeper's cold attitude but didn't mind. As a lad from the countryside, it was normal for people to overlook him. He placed the pig meat and water aside and was about to carefully take out the ginseng when he was interrupted by a sharp voice.

“Get these out immediately. Don't you know this is a medicine store? Bringing such a smelly pig in here!” The newcomer, dressed in luxurious silk clothes, appeared to be around 16 or 17 years old, accompanied by a few servants. It was clear they were from a wealthy family.

Lin Yuxing's expression darkened as he reached out his hand, feeling humiliated by this treatment.

People are not born equal, and the poor are often despised, but this man's attitude was as if he were some kind of trash.

The shopkeeper adopted a sycophantic smile. “Young Master, you're here. Don't worry, I'll have someone take it out immediately.” Turning to Lin Yuxing, he said, “Whatever you're selling, our shop doesn't need it. Leave now!”

He couldn't afford to offend this young master, who was the boss's son, and the shopkeeper had no authority.

Lin Yuxing silently shouldered his basket and took the pig meat and water to leave. Since they looked down on him, there was no reason to cooperate. Besides, if a dog bites you, would you bite back? What's the difference between that and an animal?

“Wait, isn't this Lin Yuxing?” The young master spoke, and a few servants blocked his path.

Lin Yuxing frowned, looking directly at the young man, finding him familiar but unable to place him. “Please move aside,” he said, his voice calm and emotionless.

“Oh my, it really is Lin Yuxing. Aren't you crippled yet?” the young man said maliciously.

Lin Yuxing laughed and retorted, “Where did this fly come from, buzzing so annoyingly?”

After he said this, even the servants couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.
