But for now she can protect herself and doesn't have to worry about being beaten. She needs to collect evidence step by step regarding the divorce and be fully prepared before taking action.

All the money she had earned from working had been taken away by her family. After this incident, her family pretended to be venting her anger, but in fact they took the money and left, causing her to be beaten even more severely that night.

She also saw clearly the true faces of those people in her family and understood that blood ties are sometimes not important. She was not a son, and a daughter who is married off is like water spilled. Now she is even more of an outsider in that family.

She had made up her mind that after her divorce, she would go to a completely unfamiliar place where it was spring all year round, open a B&B, and live a free life.

Therefore, she has to work hard to make money and prepare for her new life in the future.

Of course, she wouldn't tell anyone this.

There are no secrets in the village. If she tells it out, she will have no way to escape.

Xia Liannan carried a heavy load of bayberries on her back, but she didn't feel it was heavy at all. She even felt like she was closer to a happy life in the future.

After all the bayberries have been picked, we start packing them.

Xu Qingzhi helped to pack the fruits and check the quality of the bayberries. Occasionally, there would be a few bad ones that would be put aside and thrown to the chickens and ducks in the back mountain.

This bayberry fruit has a strong spiritual energy and is loved by chickens and ducks.

"Master, help me, I don't have enough spiritual energy, I'm so scared, sob... "

A tender and young voice sounded out of nowhere.

Only Xu Qingzhi and the two children could hear this sound.

Xu Qingzhi finished packing the bayberries in his hand, looked up at the transparent little man on the woman's back, waving his round transparent little hands to greet her. The lower half of his body, as thin as a piece of paper, was swaying in the wind, and his little round legs were broken.

She waved her hand, and the transparent man stuck tightly to the woman's back.

Xia Liannan felt some movement behind her and turned around to ask, "Qingzhi, what's wrong?"

Xu Qingzhi said calmly: "No, I saw a mosquito and chased it away."

Xia Liannan smiled and turned back to continue packing bayberries.

She knew Xu Qingzhi. When they were young, there were not many toys, so the girls loved to get together and play skipping rope.

At that time, Qingzhi was the youngest and also the most powerful.

Putting the rubber band as high as her waist was her limit, and Qingzhi had to put the rubber band under her armpits many times when she was skipping rubber bands.

However, that was all when they were young. She was five years older than Qingzhi, and after entering junior high school, she no longer liked to go out and play, and the two of them gradually drifted apart.

So she didn't have any intention of trying to get close to him. She just wanted to pick the bayberries better, pack them more carefully, and do everything better. Next time if there is work to be done, she can be called.

After the bayberries were packed, the courier arrived. Xu Qingzhi placed the order with ease and sent the goods out together.

She also contacted several very authoritative vegetable testing companies, paid some extra money, and the test results will be out tomorrow.

Wang Yanmei paid some people in cash, 80 yuan per person. Some people paid online and wanted Wang Yanmei to transfer the money via WeChat, so Wang Yanmei did it.

Everyone took the money and left happily.

The transparent little man behind Xia Liannan said politely in a baby voice, "Master, goodbye."

As expected, it was cut by Xu Qingzhi herself. She found it pleasing to the eye no matter how she looked at it.

After everyone left, Wen Shanshan said, "Qingzhi, I think Liannan will definitely succeed in getting a divorce. She has a lot of tenacity."

Xu Qingzhi shook his head and sighed: "You, worry less about other people's affairs."

"I won't, but you seem to be more prone to falling in love." Xu Qingzhi sneered mercilessly.

Wen Shanshan: “…”

Xu Fuqiang had just returned from throwing the rotten bayberries to feed the chickens. When he heard this conversation, he was surprised and said, "Shanshan, you can also drive a forklift? I really didn't expect it. You're amazing."

"Uncle, that's not what I meant." Wen Shanshan wanted to explain.

Xu Fuqiang thought she was being praised and felt embarrassed. "The young man in our village who drives a forklift makes quite a lot of money. It's a good thing that you can drive. Uncle has no other intentions. You can talk to Qingzhi slowly and ask your brother to come over for dinner later."

"Okay, thank you uncle." Wen Shanshan didn't explain the forklift joke. She was so happy to get a free meal! She quickly sent a message to her brother: "Brother, come and eat, uncle called you."

Then, she put down her phone and continued the previous topic seriously: "Qingzhi, I'm not a love-brained person. Although I haven't had a boyfriend yet, I've seen pigs run before. Many of my girlfriends have been in love, at least eight out of ten times, and I've seen them all."

"Well, that's the best." Xu Qingzhi thought she was so cute. Could it be that after living for more than 550 years, her mentality has become old? Why does she always treat Wen Shanshan as a child?

Forget it, she just went with the flow and reached out to touch Wen Shanshan's head.

"Shanshan, you are so cute. I like you very much."

"Qingzhi, I like you too." Wen Shanshan blushed, "But... I'm a straight girl~"

"Pfft, hahaha..." Xu Qingzhi couldn't help but burst out laughing, it was so cute. But for fear of being misunderstood, she still explained: "I'm straight too, don't worry."

Kyoto.

Mrs. Wen had just returned from playing mahjong at her friend's house.

"Madam, Miss Shanshan and Master Si Ran sent a box of bayberries. Would you like to try some?"

Mrs. Wen waved her hand. "No, I don't like sour things. What time will dinner be ready? Ah Xiong told me that I won't work overtime tonight. Let the chef cook it quickly."

"Okay." The butler responded and told the kitchen staff to prepare dinner quickly.

The housekeeper looked at the box of bayberries in the corner, swallowed his saliva, and walked out again, "Madam, are you really not going to try those bayberries?"

Mrs. Wen looked at her strangely.

The housekeeper smiled and said truthfully, "When we got the bayberries today, we wanted to process them and put them in the refrigerator. But when we opened the box of bayberries, the fruits were red and big, and the rich bayberry smell was so delicious. I was afraid that if I washed them in advance, the bayberries would lose some flavor, so I thought I would process them after you came back, Madam."

Mrs. Wen raised her eyebrows and remembered that this bayberry was not an ordinary bayberry, but a bayberry that her son could eat! At that time, she was thinking, how delicious is this?

She suddenly became curious and said, "Wash some so I can taste it."

Soon, a plate of clean bayberries was brought up.

Mrs. Wen picked up a bayberry and took a bite of the flesh. The bayberry juice went down her throat first, and then the flesh went into her stomach.

A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She ate the whole bayberry and spit out the seed. The bayberry looked so big and red, but the seed was so small. At most, 99% of it was flesh.

The most important thing is the taste! "Delicious, so delicious!" Mrs. Wen said with surprise, and picked up another bayberry and started eating.

Before we knew it, the whole plate of bayberries was quickly finished.

Mrs. Wen wiped her mouth and heard the sound of a car outside the house. It must be Ah Xiong coming back.

She looked at the empty plate and turned to the housekeeper: "Then... wash some more bayberries."
