Xiao Moxi and his mother happily went to harvest the last rice in the field.

Su Xiaonuan took the children to sleep. She was really tired after working for most of the day, and fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed.

After waking up, Su Xiaonuan saw that there was mint growing in the yard, so she picked some leaves and made some herbal tea.

It's hot. Although it's cooler in the mornings and evenings, it's still unbearably hot during the day. There are no fans or air conditioners, so I can only brew some herbal tea to cool down.

People back then liked to drink raw water. After working, they would scoop up a ladle of cold water and gulp it down.

Su Xiaonuan still preferred to drink boiled water, so she boiled more and planned to let it cool before sending it to her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

In this heat, it's easy to get heatstroke while working in the fields.

"Sister-in-law, your daughter-in-law has really changed for the better." Aunt Hua was parched when she saw Xiao Nuan bring water, so she threw down her sickle and ran over to ask for a drink.

"Sister-in-law, this water is so delicious! What did you put in it?" Xiao Moxi poured two bowls of water from the plastic bottle and drank them down.

"Give me some water!" Aunt Hua snatched the bowl from Mo Xi's hand, poured a bowl of water, and drank it down in one gulp. After finishing, she poured two more bowls and drank from them. She then handed the bowl to Zhang Yulan and looked at Su Xiaonuan. "Xiaonuan, what did you put in this water? It's so refreshing and thirst-quenching, and it tastes so sweet. It's really delicious."

"Aunt Hua, do you want to know the recipe?" Su Xiaonuan was just worried about not having a chance to ask Aunt Hua, and this was a golden opportunity.

"Yes." Aunt Hua nodded repeatedly.

"Aunt Hua, could you tell me the recipe for your family's medicinal wine?" Su Xiaonuan went straight to the point. "I heard your family's medicinal wine has medicinal effects?"

"Haha, you want the recipe for that medicinal wine?" Aunt Hua laughed, then whispered in Zhang Yulan's ear, "Sister-in-law, does your Xiaonuan think Moran isn't powerful enough?"

Zhang Yulan's face immediately darkened, and she coughed. "Xiao Nuan, you're a woman, you should have some self-respect."

"Mom, how am I shameless?" Su Xiaonuan said seriously. "It's just a medicinal wine recipe, right? I'm not taking it for free. I'm exchanging recipes with her. If this herbal tea recipe isn't enough, I can exchange other recipes with Aunt Hua."

Su Xiaonuan asked if the medicinal wine recipe was fake, hoping to use this opportunity to reveal what happened back then.

"Oh dear, sister-in-law, that's not what Mom meant." Mo Xi had also heard everyone teasing Aunt Hua's medicinal wine, and she blushed and stomped her foot, unable to say anything.

"Could it be that there's something wrong with Aunt Hua's medicinal wine?" Su Xiaonuan exclaimed, feigning surprise.

"It's not just that there's a problem, it's that there's definitely a problem." Aunt Hua patted Xiao Nuan's shoulder knowingly.

"Didn't Lan Yin say that your family's medicinal wine can heal injuries?" Su Xiaonuan finally got to the point. "Back then, Jiang Yi suffered internal injuries, and Lan Yin said that she specially asked Aunt Hua for a pot of wine and asked me to deliver it to Jiang Yi, who was reading in the back mountain, saying that drinking it could heal his injuries."

"Is that so?" Zhang Yulan was startled. Remembering what her son had said, she immediately became interested in the topic.

"To be honest, Lan Yin did ask me for a pot of medicinal wine a few years ago, saying it was for her father who worked in the mine. I was puzzled at the time, wondering why she asked me for such medicinal wine instead of Li Chunxiang. It really made me think for a long time."

"Aunt Hua, are you sure Lan Yin asked you for a pot of medicinal wine?" Su Xiaonuan asked again to confirm.

"I remember this very clearly, it really happened. That girl even gave me five yuan, otherwise, I wouldn't have been willing to give away such precious medicinal wine so easily," Aunt Hua recalled.

"That pot of wine wasn't for Lan Yin's father; it was for me and Xiao Moran."

"What? You two drank it?" Aunt Hua slapped her forehead. "I remember now, it was the day you two had the accident in the back mountain. Yes, Lan Yin came to buy the medicinal wine that day. I never sell this wine, and I only agreed after saying a lot of nice things to her."

"Sister-in-law, how did that medicinal wine end up in your hands again?" Xiao Moxi's heart skipped a beat. "My brother hates you because of this pot of wine."

It wasn't just Xiao Moran who hated Su Xiaonuan; this pot of wine directly ruined the original owner's innocence and also burdened her with the reputation of a bad woman.

"Back then, Lan Yin brought me some wine and said that Jiang Yi was injured and that drinking this wine would make him better. She even said that she had specially asked Aunt Hua for this medicinal wine. She said she saw Jiang Yi go to the back mountain to read and asked me to deliver it to him. When I got to the back mountain, I found that it wasn't Jiang Yi, but Xiao Moran. We were both in a bad mood, so we drank the whole pot of wine in one gulp." Su Xiaonuan finished speaking in one breath.

"Good heavens, how could this be?" Aunt Hua exclaimed in her loud voice. "No wonder you two were rolling around on the back hill."

"Xiao Nuan, is everything you said true?" Zhang Yulan stepped forward and took her hand.

"Mom, would I need to lie to you?" Su Xiaonuan said. "Back then, Jiang Yi and I were boyfriend and girlfriend. He was injured, and I was more worried than anyone else. Lan Yin came to his rescue, and without thinking twice, I ran to the back mountain..."

Aunt Hua's loud voice attracted many people working in the fields, who all listened attentively to her speech.

"So, it was Lan Yin who broke up Su Xiaonuan and Jiang Yi?"

"That must be it. Jiang Yi is too good-looking. He attracted the attention of all the young women and wives here as soon as he arrived."

"My God, I really didn't expect that the obedient and gentle Lan Yin could be so bad, capable of doing such a despicable thing."

"No wonder she pesters Jiang Yi to tutor her every day."

......

Xiao Moran had been listening quietly for a while, and his fists clenched up. If Lan Yin were still in the village, he would go and settle accounts with her right now. This is outrageous!
