Aunt Wang's cheeks flushed with anger: "Xu Xingchen, was it you, a little bitch, who went to my house to cause trouble?"

Xu Xingchen spread his hands.

"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Aunt Wang, do you have evidence to scold me for vandalizing your house?"

Aunt Wang was stunned for a moment.

Why did this sound so familiar... When she realized what was happening, she became even more furious: "I have no grudges against anyone in the village. I only have a conflict with your family. Who else would cause trouble in my house besides you? Xu Xingchen, you just can't stand me having a good life, right? You're a jinx who brings bad luck to your husband!"

After being scolded, Xu Xingchen was not angry, but felt better instead.

You are just so angry and helpless, Aunt Wang!

At this moment, Village Chief Wu rushed over after hearing the news: "What happened?"

Xu Xingchen spoke first, "Village Chief, you know that Aunt Wang and I have never gotten along. Their house was robbed, and they blamed it on me."

She briefly told the village chief the situation, including the destruction of Jun Haoyue's house.

Village chief Wu has been in Sanwan Village for so many years and he knows everyone's personality well.

After hearing this, I understood about 70% of it.

He frowned and looked at Aunt Wang, who also understood at this time: "Village Chief, it really was them who did it..."

Village Chief Wu asked, "You keep saying they harmed you, but do you have any evidence to prove it?"

Aunt Wang: “…No.”

"Then what else do you have to say? You're not the only one who's been harmed! Instead of just guessing, why not go back and check to see if there are any clues left behind?"

After that, the village chief said to the other onlookers: "This is not a big deal, everyone should go away."

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, everyone went about their own business, and for a moment only Aunt Wang and Zhang Tiansheng were left.

Aunt Wang glared at the two of them fiercely before leaving.

Xu Xingchen looked at the two men's backs, grinning from ear to ear. They definitely wouldn't be able to find any evidence. When she and Jun Haoyue had messed up the house, they had been extremely careful and hadn't left even a single footprint. Aunt Wang was definitely going to take the blame for this!

After this incident, Aunt Wang became much more obedient, at least she didn't cause trouble again.

Xu Xingchen and Jun Haoyue can also focus on taking care of the wheat fields.

Because they had sprayed pesticides, there were almost no insects in the wheat fields. The wheat grew particularly well, even taller than the wheat next door, and was still lush and green.

Many villagers saw this situation and came to inquire.

Xu Xingchen did not hide it and said that he had prepared the insecticide himself.

When the villagers heard this, their eyes lit up: "Sister Xu, can you please give us some insecticide for the sake of our fellow villagers?"

If it were in the past, Xu Xingchen would have agreed without hesitation.

But after the embroidery class incident, she no longer wants to be a good person.

"Of course you can, but it's not free."

The villagers looked at each other, obviously not expecting her to ask for money. After a moment, they made up their minds: "Okay, we can spend money to buy your insecticide."

The wheat harvest is more important than that little money.

If their wheat could grow as well as Xu Xingchen's, they wouldn't have to worry about food this year.

Seeing this, Xu Xingchen readily agreed: "Then it's settled. Give me some time to prepare the medicine."

After the villagers left, she took out the small bottle of insecticide.

There is a detailed recipe on it, which requires medicinal herbs and some modern raw materials. It is not difficult to make, but it is a bit complicated. If I want Mendun to help, it will probably take some time!

But the insecticide was more urgent, so Xu Xingchen thought about it and made a list on paper.

She picked the medicinal herbs on the mountain herself, and asked Mendun'er to help with those that were difficult to get.

She passed the note to Munduner who was traveling.

At this moment, Jun Haoyue also came back from the fields. Seeing Xu Xingchen packing his things, he asked, "Are you going out again?"

Xu Xingchen nodded and told him what happened today.

"I think pesticides are definitely not just for the people of Sanwan Village; other villages need them too! This is a business opportunity, we have to seize it!"

That's why she was so anxious to go up the mountain. Time is money!

She took Jun Haoyue up the mountain and searched for medicinal herbs everywhere.

This is not an easy task. After all, most medicinal herbs grow in places where there are few people, and there are no roads in such places, so it is difficult to walk. After a while, Xu Xingchen's skirt was scratched.

Because it was hot, she was wearing thin clothes, and large areas of skin on her legs were exposed.

"Or, you can find a place to wait for me, and I will go to the mountain to look for it myself." Jun Haoyue took off his coat and let Xu Xingchen tie it around his waist, his brows almost twisted into a 川 shape.

Fortunately, she was not injured, otherwise he would be even more heartbroken!

However, the person concerned waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's okay, I'm not that delicate! Let's keep going!"

Seeing her insistence, Jun Haoyue could only sigh secretly. He quickened his pace and walked forward, using the sickle in his hand to help clear the way.

He also kicked away the thorns at his feet.

This made Xu Xingchen's journey much easier. The two of them maintained this tacit understanding and searched for medicinal herbs in the mountains for a long time, not returning home until it got dark.

"Hey, isn't this the young widow and her cousin? What are these two doing in the mountains?"

Aunt Wang, who had just returned from the fields, happened to see this scene and curiously hid aside to watch.

Soon, she noticed that both of them were in disheveled condition.

Especially Xu Xingchen, a good woman, actually wore men's clothes. Even if Jun Haoyue was her cousin, she shouldn't be so rude!

The more Aunt Wang looked at it, the more strange it seemed to her, and suddenly an idea came to her mind.

Xu Xingchen and Jun Haoyue were disheveled, they couldn't have been having sex in the mountains, right?

Tsk, a single man and a single woman, with such a fierce atmosphere, the possibility of this happening is very high! Aunt Wang's eyes gradually became brighter as she thought of this.

Xu Xingchen, I finally caught you with something wrong. Just wait, I'm going to spread this news!

…

Bamboo house.

Xu Xingchen took the basket from Jun Haoyue's back and began to count the herbs inside.

The herbs on the paper were crossed out one by one, until only one herb was missing.

Xu Xingchen looked at the name of the medicinal herb and was puzzled: "We have been searching for it in the mountains for so long today, but we haven't seen any Aconitum kusnezoffii. Could it be that there is no such herb in the mountains at all?"

Jun Haoyue poured a cup of tea and handed it to her: "I've checked, the environment on the mountain is not suitable for its growth."

"Oh...that's troublesome."

Seeing her frown tighten even more, he offered, "Don't be discouraged. Perhaps there's this herb at the market. We can go to town tomorrow and look for it."
