Liu Jingqiu was stunned for a moment. She had only heard of him, but had never seen him. She was a rich young lady, who would want to see a mute?

hehe!

Su Nanxi couldn't help but laugh. He didn't know her, yet he took it for granted and asked her for help, even labeling her as a maid!

Who gave this person such a big mouth!

Su Nanxi picked up the twig and wrote a few more words, then threw the twig away, clapped her hands, and turned to leave.

Liu Jingqiu was puzzled and tilted her head to look at the ground, where there were several words: "Go find whoever is your maid!"

This infuriated Liu Jingqiu. She didn't care whether Su Nanxi was her maid or not; if she said she was, then she was!

Anyway, Su Nanxi couldn't speak and couldn't explain clearly. Besides, she had proof that the two of them were sent here together!

No, it isn't!

Hey! What's wrong with you?!

Liu Jingqiu chased after her, but Su Nanxi had long legs and walked fast, so Liu Jingqiu struggled to keep up and kept shouting for her to stop.

Su Nanxi ignored her and quickened her pace. If she had obediently stopped, there would probably have been more arguments. She was very busy and didn't want to waste time.

Although she knew that Liu Jingqiu wouldn't let it go and would definitely cause her trouble again in the future, Su Nanxi really didn't want to see this young lady right now.

Liu Jingqiu was panting as she chased after them. After all, she had been pampered and had to stop every three steps. How could her physical condition compare to that of someone running all over the mountain?

Although Liu Jingqiu married into the Zhang family and had to do all sorts of chores, which did give her some training, her physical condition was still weak, and she was even out of breath when she walked!

Unable to catch up with Su Nanxi, she shouted, "Don't think you can get away with denying it! I said you're my maid, and you are! Once a maid, always a maid! Our relationship is unchangeable!"

Su Nanxi's lips twitched as she listened. Tsk, crazy woman!

She still thinks she's the high and mighty young lady she once was! So arrogant and conceited!

Even if we assume they were master and servant, from the moment she was sent to this wretched place, she was nothing, not even as good as a maid. What's the point of mentioning the past?

They must have been driven to despair by life, and now that they've finally found a lifeline, how could they let it go so easily!

Excessive thinking leads to madness, and madness leads to obsession.

Cherish life, stay away from lunatics!

Su Nanxi moved with lightning speed and disappeared in no time, leaving Liu Jingqiu standing there resentfully.

Tears streamed down her face. Liu Jingqiu gritted her teeth, trying not to cry out. She hated Su Nanxi for being so heartless and refusing to help her in her time of need!

That's right, Liu Jingqiu was also forced into a corner. It wasn't others who forced her, it was she who forced herself!

The Zhang family was very poor. After marrying a wife, she would definitely have to help with the chores. After all, having an extra person meant having an extra bowl of rice, which wasn't easy. It was essential for Liu Jingqiu to help.

However, Zhang Dashan was getting old and wanted children. He didn't mistreat Liu Jingqiu, but he didn't treat her well either, mainly because he didn't have the means!

Liu Jingqiu's small body couldn't take the strain, but Zhang Dashan still didn't let her off the hook. He dragged her to work every day, wanting to plant the crops as soon as possible. Afterwards, he didn't care whether Liu Jingqiu was comfortable or not, and still made her do the work.

Liu Jingqiu had never experienced hardship, so she felt very bitter. Another reason was that she disliked Zhang Dashan and didn't think much of him. When Zhang Dashan asked her to do things, she felt resistant and felt very painful. Over time, this resentment turned into bitterness.

If Liu Jingqiu could get pregnant, Zhang Dashan would still be interested for a while, but Liu Jingqiu's delicate body just couldn't get pregnant.

Zhang Dashan was anxious. He felt that there was nothing wrong with him, so it must be his wife's problem. He even secretly took Liu Jingqiu to see a doctor. The doctor said that Liu Jingqiu had a cold uterus and needed to take care of herself before she could have children.

Now things have gotten complicated. Zhang Dashan misinterpreted the doctor's meaning and thought that Liu Jingqiu was infertile, so he openly and secretly disliked her.

Liu Jingqiu was also suffering. She had always known she had a cold uterus, and the previous physician had mentioned it, but it wasn't a big problem; she could get better with some medicine and conditioning. She had tried it and recovered. The current cold uterus was probably caused by the time she was brought here, coupled with her poor eating and sleeping habits after coming to the Zhang family.

It's not that it can't be cured, but it costs money. You need money to see a doctor and get medicine!

That's why Liu Jingqiu was so eager to get money. Once she had the money, she would take care of her health as soon as possible to prove that she was fine!

Su Nanxi had no interest in understanding Liu Jingqiu. Everyone has their own fate. She could help once, but not an unlimited number of times!

Once she reached the mountain, she put everything else aside and quickly searched for what she needed.

She knew the mountains quite well; she remembered clearly what she needed and had drawn it into a map, so she could finish work and go home when the sun was setting.

She went into the mountains to collect so-called precious medicinal herbs because of Manager Luo's strong request. She was passing by the pharmacy on her way to town when Manager Luo happened to see her. Oh dear! Manager Luo rushed out!

They very warmly invited her to sit in the pharmacy. Su Nanxi wasn't stupid; seeing how attentive Manager Luo was, she naturally guessed that he wanted something from her!

Sure enough, despite his advanced age, Manager Luo didn't feel ashamed at all when he started playing the victim, exaggerating how difficult his situation was and how he was about to die!

Tsk!

Su Nanxi was also impressed by his acting skills; well, it was a bit fake!

Finally, he agreed to give it a try, and Manager Luo instantly felt vindicated and beamed with joy.

It's unbearable to look at!

Su Nanxi did not guarantee that he would be able to find anything good; he could only promise to do his best.

Manager Luo was convinced that Su Nanxi would find something good. Don't ask him why; it was just his intuition, his belief!

Su Nanxi did manage to collect some items, and more than just one or two, but she didn't plan to give them all to Manager Luo. Things are valued for their scarcity, and if there were too many, Manager Luo, that old fox, would definitely exploit them.

She deliberately planted some in her space to see if they could grow. If they could, given the slower growth time in the space, they should mature faster than those outside, so she wouldn't have to go to places like the rock walls to dig them up.

On the way down the mountain, as usual, I would take whatever I liked and stuff my basket with most of the wild fruits.

Su Nanxi went to the field to check on things. The children were watering the plants. When they saw her return, they dropped their small wooden buckets and ran over to her.

"Third Aunt! You're back! We've soaked so many fields!"

Several children surrounded Su Nanxi, chirping and chattering like happy little sparrows.

Su Nanxi gave them a thumbs up, praising their skill, then put down her basket and took out wild fruits for them.

"Thank you, Third Aunt!"

Eat up, it's just wild fruit!

After watering the plants, Su Nanxi told the children to go home first, while she stayed behind to check on the growth of the corn and sweet potato vines.

As it grew dark on the way back, Su Nanxi passed through a bamboo grove and heard a familiar voice. She subconsciously looked around and saw that the voice was coming from the wall.

"Can I really do it?"
