Chapter 43 What else should I find?
"What's wrong? A girl is missing?" Aunt Pang and her husband Feng Kaicai hurried over.
"It's my Jin'er. Did he get beaten up by a beggar..." Old Mrs. Ye was so anxious that she was about to cry.
Ye Huan'er was completely stunned. Her sister was missing!
"Hurry up, let's go look for it." said Aunt Fat.
Ye Caiping came back to her senses and said anxiously, "Fatty, please take them to look for it. I have to go back to the village."
"Go back to the village?" Old Mrs. Ye was puzzled.
"Mom, there's a chance that Jin'er has secretly run back to the village. I'll explain the reason to you later. I have to go find her. You and Fatty should also look for her in town."
As she spoke, Ye Caiping had already run out.
"Picking apples..."
Before he could finish his words, Ye Caiping had already disappeared.
Ye Caiping ran all the way to where the ox cart was parked.
Ye Bajin was no longer there, having apparently sent the villagers back to the village.
Coincidentally, there was an ox cart not far away, and the driver was an old man who seemed to be from the village on the opposite river bank.
Ye Caiping took out a string of money from the space: "Uncle, this is 20 coins, please take me home."
"Ah?" The old man was confused. "No need for so much, 2 cents is enough..."
"No, just give me one."
Several villagers from He'an Village who had already boarded the bus were about to curse, but Ye Caiping took out another string of money and stuffed it into one of their hands:
"Brothers and sisters, please be kind, I have something urgent to do!"
The woman who received the money was pleasantly surprised: "Okay, okay, whatever you want."
Seeing that there was money to be shared, the other people also got off the car happily.
"Uncle, hurry up! I'm from Qinghe Village, take me directly to Niutou Mountain."
The old man took the money and was very satisfied, and immediately started to whip the bull.
Because there were only two people on the ox cart, it ran very fast, even though its bottom was almost broken into four pieces.
Ye Caiping was so anxious that her face turned pale. She leaned on the ox cart, watching the car rushing towards Niutou Mountain, her thoughts surging.
She originally wanted to avoid it, but ended up heading in that direction.
Could it be that they really have no way to escape?
Or is it that even her so-called plot awakening is part of the book?
She had a gloomy face, and before she knew it, the ox cart was almost reaching Qinghe Village.
"Uncle, please hurry into the village. I'll call someone along the way." Ye Caiping pointed at the road, "Yes, enter from here."
The old man followed Ye Caiping's instructions and soon arrived at the door of Old Ye's house.
From a distance, Ye Caiping saw Ye Daquan carrying a hoe and preparing to enter the door.
“Brother!”
Ye Daquan turned around and was startled: "Hey, Caiping... why did you come back alone?"
"We'll talk later. Come on, get in the car and let's go up the mountain."
Ye Daquan didn't understand what was going on, but he got into the car obediently anyway.
The old man driving the cart hurried towards Niutou Mountain.
"What's wrong?" Ye Daquan asked.
"Jin'er is on the mountain and might be in danger. You have to protect us later." Ye Caiping said.
"What, are you in danger? Don't worry, I'm here, no one can hurt you."
Ye Caiping nodded somewhat moved.
The book says that at that time, only Li Jiaojiao's siblings and their mother and daughter were on the mountain, and Ye Daquan was not there.
Ye Caiping didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the ox cart stopped at the foot of the mountain.
It seems that her plot awakening is not part of the book.
The brother and sister got out of the car and headed towards the mountain.
When they were almost at the place where ginseng was found last time, Ye Caiping saw three people standing on the steep slope from afar.
It was Ye Jiner and a young boy and girl.
Ye Jin'er said: "I was the first to discover this ginseng! I found it a few days ago."
Li Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows: "How funny! Now that you've discovered it, why don't you dig it out first?"
Ye Caiping's face darkened and she walked over quickly: "Jin'er!"
Ye Jin'er was startled. She didn't expect her mother to find out that she had returned to the village, and even chased after her...
"Come home with me first." Ye Caiping came to her side.
"I won't!" Ye Jin'er gritted her teeth, feeling very aggrieved, "We were the first to discover this ginseng, but now she has taken it away."
She is not willing to give in!
Before Ye Caiping could say anything, Li Jiaojiao on the other side looked at Ye Caiping and said, "It's you. You are the woman who hit Grandma Li and was divorced by Uncle Li."
Ye Caiping raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Jiaojiao.
Is this the heroine who makes a beautiful and cool living by stealing questions and picking up people?
Jiaojiao, the name sounds very feminine and she looks very feminine too. What kind of person is she, with a gorgeous appearance, a delicate and soft body, and the kind that you can pinch the waist to pamper.
Ye Caiping said: "It seems that you are very concerned about me."
Li Jiaojiao choked.
Her mother is the one that Uncle Li truly holds in his heart, and the true love that Uncle Li would rather give his life for.
The woman in front of him was vicious and cruel. She was the abandoned wife divorced by Uncle Li.
Now that Ye Caiping said this, it seemed that they were at a disadvantage.
Ye Caiping didn't want to provoke a conflict with her, so she pulled Ye Jiner and said, "Let's go!"
"Mom..." Ye Jin'er was unwilling.
Ye Caiping glared: "If you don't leave now, don't call me mom anymore. Go wherever you want."
Ye Jin'er shrank back at her glare and nodded.
Ye Daquan, who was behind them, quickly pulled the mother and the woman away, fearing that they would roll down the steep slope: "Let's go, let's go home first."
Although he didn't know what was going on, his younger sister told him before going up the mountain that there was danger!
So all he could think about was bringing his little sister and niece down the mountain.
The three of them walked away from the steep slope step by step.
Only after they walked away did Ye Caiping breathe a sigh of relief and looked back at the figures of Li Jiaojiao and her sister.
It seems that all this can really change.
The huge rock that had been weighing on her heart finally fell, and she felt relaxed and bright.
All the way down the mountain, Ye Jin'er was a little annoyed: "When I arrived, she had already dug out the ginseng, and she said that the ginseng was fifty years old."
"Ginseng? Fifty years?" Ye Daquan was so shocked that he stood still. "This must be worth one or two hundred taels!"
"if……"
"No ifs." Ye Caiping turned around, "What Li Jiaojiao said just now is right. Even if we found it a long time ago, it is not ours if we don't dig it up. She dug it first, so it is hers."
Although Ye Daquan was reckless, he agreed with this statement: "First come, first served, this is the rule in the mountains."
Ye Jin'er looked listless and guilty, "Mom, I'm sorry. I just... couldn't wait any longer. I thought you... didn't seem to care much about this ginseng, so I sneaked back. As expected... someone else got it."
At the end of the speech, my heart was filled with resentment.
He looked at Ye Caiping cautiously: "Mom, if we didn't go to sell spicy soup this morning..."
Ye Caiping sighed softly, "It's not that I don't care, but I'm too worried. I had a dream a few days ago. I dreamed that we found ginseng in the mountains, and when we were fighting for it, we rolled down the hillside and died."
Ye Jin'er was stunned.
"Look, aren't we fighting for ginseng today? I think our lives are more important than ginseng."
Ye Jin'er was relieved after hearing this: "Mom, I understand."
Although ginseng is very valuable, it is nothing compared to the love of a mother.
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "That's enough. It's just ginseng, I don't have as much as you want."
As long as there is space, you can buy as much as you want.
Ye Jin'er and Ye Daquan were both stunned. Why did she make ginseng sound like weeds on the ground?
"By the way, the girl my mother just called Li Jiaojiao, is she... the daughter of Li Zhiyuan's new wife?" Ye Jiner said.
"Um."
Ye Jin'er's face turned even darker. Losing the ginseng was already frustrating enough for her, and that person turned out to be Li Zhiyuan's stepdaughter!
Ye Jin'er felt even more upset.
"What, Li Zhiyuan's stepdaughter? Damn it, I should have beaten them up earlier! No, I'm going to go back and beat them up now." Ye Daquan was about to turn around.
Ye Caiping's face darkened and she pulled his ear.
“Ah… it hurts! No, no, no, little sister, I don’t want to hit you anymore, I don’t want to hit you anymore!”
…
At the same time, Li Jiaojiao took the ginseng and went down the mountain with Li Zimo.
"Jiaojiao, you are so lucky. You dug up ginseng as soon as you went up the mountain." Li Zimo said happily, "Besides, the ginseng was first discovered by that woman. It's great that we snatched it from them."
Li Jiaojiao smiled, but her brows were tightly furrowed.
For some reason, she couldn't be happy. She even felt irritated and felt that she should find something else besides ginseng.
