Chapter 269: 269 Su Qingyue committed fraud 2
“That’s right. It’s all thanks to this medicinal mud toothpaste.” Su Qingyue proudly showed off and then spoke to Ding Er, “Ding Er, didn’t you ask me if Chuan dared to kiss me? To be honest…
Looking saddened, “In the past, he didn’t dare. Even if I was killed, he wouldn’t kiss me, saying that I smelled. But since I started using the medicinal mud toothpaste, my breath doesn’t smell at all, just like Li family’s second son said, it even has a faint fragrance. Yuchuan loves to kiss me now. He even said my mouth tastes sweet.”
She hadn’t actually kissed Xiao Yuchuan at all.
Anyway, she was Yuchuan’s wife, so bragging a bit wouldn’t hurt.
Of course, she didn’t know that Xiao Yuchuan kissed her when she had a fever that night.
“Haha, wife of the Xiao Family, you really aren’t shy at all, ” Ding Er laughed.
The faces of the other villagers also showed amusement.
“I’m an honest person, but since Ding Er asked, I’m just answering,” Su Qingyue this time changed her expression to one of regret, “I spent several taels of silver to make this medicine and put in quite a bit of effort. I made a jar of it for my own use, but I urgently needed money. The road to the town is so far. It’s too hard for me, a woman, to carry the jar to town. So, I figured if anyone in the village wants to buy it, I’ll sell it at a lower price. I see a lot of yellow teeth in the village, and this medicinal mud toothpaste is a great product. Using a willow twig to clean teeth with the medicinal paste mixed with water, after cleaning, the teeth are incredibly refreshed. With long-term use, not only can it keep teeth clean and white, but even those with constant toothaches won’t feel pain as much…”
She talked about the merits of brushing teeth so passionately that those who listened couldn’t help but be moved.
Ding Er was the first to ask, “Wife of the Xiao Family, this… what is this called?”
“Medicinal mud toothpaste. Originally it was just medicinal mud paste, but I added the word ‘tooth’ for teeth cleaning.”
“The name is quite fitting. How much does it cost?”
Su Qingyue had thought about the price long ago. This toothpaste was made with inexpensive materials that she gathered herself and was an essential item for daily life. If she wanted a long-term business, she couldn’t sell it for a high price. Moreover, the village was remote, and most of the villagers were poor, so if the price was too high, no one would buy it.
She’s in urgent need of money, or else she wouldn’t be bragging about this,
“Three cents for a spoonful of paste.”
“That’s so expensive…” Qian Duotian’s wife, Qian Zhangshi, had been watching for a while. She had a mouthful of yellow teeth, and her husband couldn’t stand it anymore. She was worried about not having anything to clean her teeth with.
“This is a medicinal mud toothpaste made with a lot of expensive ingredients. A spoonful of paste could last a person for half a month. If you’re thrifty, it could last a whole month of teeth cleaning. How about this: buy two spoonfuls for four cents.” Su Qingyue showed a pained expression, “I’m selling it at a loss, and I can’t go any lower. I’m really short on cash, otherwise, I really wouldn’t want to sell it.”
“Is it really effective? Can it really last for a whole month?”
“Talking about it isn’t enough. Let the facts speak.” Su Qingyue took out a few willow twigs, about the same length and thickness as chopsticks, from the basket and handed one to Qian Zhangshi.
She then took out the water pot from the basket and poured a bowl of clear water, which she also handed to Qian Zhangshi.
Next, she took a clean leaf from the thick stack of leaves, rolled it into the shape of a pointed rice dumpling, scooped a spoonful of medicinal mud toothpaste inside, and told Qian Zhangshi, “Bite down on one end of the willow twig, dip it in the toothpaste, mix with water, and clean your teeth. To clean your teeth, rub the twig left and right, up and down, and inside and outside….”
