Just out of rating, it will rise, haha.

Tang Youyou opened her eyes and found herself an ancient, timid widow. Having been single for over 30 years, she inexplicably skipped marriage and chil...

Chapter 134 Discovering Tea Trees

It was already early afternoon when Tang Youyou returned to the village.

Seeing that she was sweating profusely, Tang's mother hurried over.

"Why did you buy so much flour again, kid?"

She laughed heartily, "Mom, I'm craving tofu and pork buns. Besides, today is the day we're building a house. It's a happy occasion, so shouldn't we reward everyone?"

Tang's mother was speechless for a moment. After unloading her things, she said, "White flour is precious. Let's buy black flour from now on. This one is too conspicuous."

"It's nothing serious. I met a lot of people on my way back. As soon as they heard I was from Xiangyang Village, they ran away. There's no need to worry!"

Tang's mother chuckled: "That's true!"

Thinking of something, he reminded her, "Now that we're all dining together, don't waste any more money. Your little money will only last so long. It's better to spend it slowly and steadily!"

Tang Youyou didn't say much. Anyway, she had a net worth of several hundred taels, which was enough for several days. However, there were many boys in the family, and people said that the boys would eat their fathers out of poverty. She was aware of this.

So the more money the better. The next task is to build a house first, then earn money and let the boys go to school.

Now she has no mother-in-law or husband, and she is the head of the household. Her daughter-in-law is filial and her sons are obedient. Most importantly, her parents, younger brother and older brother are all very good to her. This is equivalent to changing the place to retire, which seems not bad.

He looked at the sky and said, "Mom, it's still early. I'll go up the mountain to chop some wood!" Then he ran up the mountain with the axe he had just bought.

Tang's mother looked at her back and whispered: "This child is so impetuous..."

Just as we reached the forest, Yu's voice came, "Sister, there is a small tea slope ahead, but it's full of thorn holes, we can't get close!"

When she heard the word tea, her eyes lit up. She had been here for more than two months and had never had tea. She missed the taste very much.

In her previous life, everyone liked to drink coffee and milk tea, but she had a special liking for tea. She had tried all kinds of tea from all over the country. For this reason, she even learned how to make tea. However, she was only a half-baked person and could barely drink it.

As I walked, I thought, it's autumn now, and I don't know what kind of tea it is. If it's oolong tea or black tea, I can enjoy it. But if it's green tea, the quality of tea in autumn is not very good.

But when she arrived at the place, she was dumbfounded. All she could see were thorny nets, and there was no trace of tea trees.

"Yu...Sister-in-law Yu, how did you know this was Chapo?"

Yu grinned. "Look at the ladder-like hills around here. I'm pretty sure they're tea trees!"

Tang Youyou wanted to scold her father.

Under everyone's gaze, she suddenly pulled up a big tree and swung it towards the thorn hole.

Although everyone has seen her pull out trees with her bare hands, it was still a bit shocking to see it again with her own eyes.

Everyone swallowed and took a few steps back.

She swept the area roughly as fiercely as a tiger, revealing several sturdy tea trees.

Yes, it is the tea tree.

This time she wanted to curse.

When I ran closer and took a look, it turned out to be green tea, and I was immediately shocked.

Yu, who was standing by, reacted excitedly and shook her fiercely, "Sister, sister, we are rich, we are rich!"

"What kind of fortune?"

"Are you stupid? Don't you know how expensive this tea is?"

Tang Youyou pursed her lips, "Can you stir-fry tea?"

Yu choked and slapped her thigh, "I... can't!"

"Haha... Sister Yu, I suddenly think you're so cute, haha..."

"Hey... stop making fun of me. What do you think we should do with this tea?"

"What else can we do? Let's clean this place up first, prune it, and then we can try to stir-fry some ourselves next year. Even if we can't sell it, we can just drink it ourselves, right?"

When everyone heard this, they all came forward.

"Don't worry, wait until I clean all the puncture holes first!"

So everyone sat on the ground and watched her display her power.

"Hey... Sister Yu, has this Sister Tang been so strong since she was a child?" A woman exclaimed. This girl is as strong as an ox and is a good worker!

Yu was about to shake her head, but then she grinned at something that struck her. "That's right! This strength is unmatched in the surrounding area. It's a gift from heaven!"

"I'm so envious! If I had this much strength, I'd definitely walk sideways..."

"What do you want to do? Do you want to rob someone? Haha..."

"What are you thinking? If anyone dares to mess with me with this strength, I'll just slap them away!"

Everyone was talking and laughing, it was very lively.

Tang Youyou listened to everyone's conversation and chuckled. It's good to be strong, but you can't help but eat a lot!

A quarter of an hour later, she collapsed on the ground exhausted, pointed ahead, and couldn't utter a word.

Yu quickly handed over a water bag.

"Just wait and see!"

An hour later, everyone fell to the ground exhausted, looking at each other's disheveled appearance and laughing.

Tang Youyou waved his hand and said, "Let's go back and eat!"

Everyone endured the pain and tied the thorns together with vines, using thick wooden sticks as shoulder poles. Each person carried two bundles and left.

Tang Youyou rushed to the front carrying two large pieces of wood.

As soon as they came out of the woods, everyone exclaimed.

"Oh my god, what's that smell? It smells so good!"

“This smells so good it makes me cry!”

"Hurry up, my stomach is growling!"

When we reached the foot of the mountain, it was getting dark and everyone rushed to the place where we were going to eat.

"Oh my, why are your hair like a chicken coop? Hurry up and wash it, it's time for dinner!" Tang's mother looked at everyone with a smile on her face.

After a while, everyone had eaten leek pancakes, tofu and meat buns, and bone porridge, and they were all very satisfied.

"Oh my god, if I could eat this well every day, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!"

"This is Miss Tang's money, and you still eat it every day!" someone reminded.

The man scratched his head, looking embarrassed. "I'm just saying this. Life is going well now. It's much better than back in Tuzhou!"

Everyone agreed, but they didn't know that disaster was about to strike.

On this day, everyone was still busy, and Tang Youyou was planting leek roots.

"Pick this out, it seems to be a different variety!"

Everyone agreed with her words, "Whatever Miss Tang says is what it is. I'll choose!"

"That's right, Sister Tang is the most courageous and visionary among us!"

"From now on, Sister Tang, if you say east, we will never go west!"

Before she knew it, she had become the most prestigious person in the village, second only to the village chief!

The corners of her mouth curled up. Being the leader, this seemed to feel pretty good.

His eyes lit up when he looked at the five adobe houses he had already built.

That's right, she likes living in a mud house, which is warm in winter and cool in summer. As for the dust, she had already thought about it. When the time comes, the house will be paved with bluestone slabs and the walls will be rolled with quicklime. It will be both beautiful and dust-proof, the best of both worlds.

When the time comes, she will plant grape trees in the front yard and get a lounge chair. It will be so wonderful to eat grapes and rock in the rocking chair.

However, a loud voice broke her fantasy.

"Oh no, something big has happened!"
