There wasn't much dinner made by Ah Wang, as the whole family was too full from eating watermelon.
Taking advantage of the daylight still lingering on the horizon, Da Lang was the first to put down his bowl and chopsticks. Qin Yao handed him two taels of silver, "You need to personally hand this to Mr. Fu, and then bring back the payment for our watermelons."
Second Lang curiously asked how much was to be brought back from the watermelons. Upon learning the amount, he asked Qin Yao why she didn't simply give Da Lang one tael and eight maces of silver to deliver, since that would settle it directly, avoiding two trips.
"You just don't get it, do you?" Qin Yao waved her hand to let Da Lang hurry off. Watching him leave, she turned back to explain to Second Lang and the others,
"Not everyone likes to account like this. Your Mr. Fu has a one-track mind, so handling each transaction separately is best."
