Chapter 015 Bad Luck
"But I don't think it's so outrageous to change your life with your own hands. Isn't it hard to understand that people want to change their living conditions? As long as it's not stolen or robbed, it's fine. Aren't we all working hard to survive?" Facing everyone's doubts, Su Wan was actually quite annoyed.
"I said, I'm not a rich girl anymore. My previous life has nothing to do with me. The life now is what I want to experience. I don't need to have exactly the same life as Gu Yue. She is her, I am me. How she was before is her business, and how I am now is also my business. Please don't compare me with her. I don't want to be unable to escape the name Gu Yue in my life forever, okay?"
Su Wan finished speaking angrily, then stood up and left the table. He had to make things clear with them so that they wouldn't always compare themselves with Gu Yue and make him live under her shadow forever.
She knew that it was still a very distant thing to completely conquer these brothers, so distant that she could not see the end. Well, she did not ask their world to become hers all at once, she could take it slowly.
Half an hour later, Su Jing came to knock on Su Wan's door. She hadn't eaten lunch today, so he brought Su Yun to bring her food and apologize.
"Wanwan, are you asleep?"
How could Su Wan possibly sleep? But after a while, she was no longer angry, so she opened the door quickly. The first people she saw when she opened the door were Su Jing and Su Yun.
"Brother, is there something wrong?"
"You didn't eat lunch, so we came to bring you some food. Wanwan's cooking skills are very good!"
"Thank you for the compliment, big brother!" Su Wan took the food from his hand.
Su Jing tugged at Su Yun, signaling him to apologize.
Su Yun was not as reluctant as before, perhaps because he realized that he had spoken too harshly, or perhaps because Su Wan's words made him feel uneasy.
"I'm sorry, Su Wan, I shouldn't have said such harsh words. No matter what you do in the future, as long as it doesn't harm this family, I won't say anything about you."
"I accept Fourth Brother's apology, but I will continue with the pine mushroom picking!" Su Wan was not really angry. She just felt aggrieved for herself at the time, because no matter what she did, they thought it was for their own good.
"Wanwan, we won't stop you if you want to go, but you have to pay attention to your own safety. There are many wolves, tigers and leopards on the mountain. We spoke a little harshly because we were worried that you would encounter danger if you went up the mountain alone. Since you insist, we won't stop you. Just be sure to pay attention to safety. Do you understand?" Su Jing repeatedly reminded her.
"We only have one more day to harvest our rice. How about asking your fourth brother to accompany you to the market to sell it the day after tomorrow morning?"
Su Yun, who was suddenly assigned a task, widened his eyes. He pointed at his nose, his face full of confusion.
"Why me? Any of them is more suitable than me!"
Big brother, aren’t you afraid that you might say something wrong and make this little ancestor unhappy?
"Since you apologize sincerely, you must be sincere. I'll give you a chance to reform and stay with Wanwan. If she loses even a hair, I'll hold you responsible!"
Su Jing did it on purpose. Su Yun was the most outgoing, so if the two siblings could spend more time together, their relationship would naturally improve!
Su Wan also noticed it, pursed her lips and wanted to laugh, but she forced herself to hold it back.
"I……"
"Okay, that's settled. Wanwan, take a good rest after eating. We'll go take a rest too!"
Without waiting for Su Yun to resist, Su Jing dragged him away and put the final nail in the coffin.
Su Yun knew that he couldn't control his mouth, and he was really afraid that he would say something wrong.
…
In the afternoon, almost as soon as her brothers left the house, Su Wan went up the mountain with a basket. She walked farther this time. She didn't know if she was lucky, but she went out with two small baskets, both of which were full. She would come back to pick fruits tomorrow and sell them the day after tomorrow morning.
She did not delay cooking, and the atmosphere at dinner time became better. Su Yun remained silent, but he was still quite pleasing to the eye when he was silent. Su Wan thought to herself, what a handsome guy, but he has a big mouth!
On the last day, the Su family had finally harvested all the rice. They took the grains off the ears and carried them all back home in baskets. The next step was to dry the grains. The brothers finally didn't have to go to the fields to be exposed to the wind and sun anymore. Everyone looked visibly darker. Their faces were fine, but their necks were a bit darker. However, it didn't affect their appearance at all.
In the afternoon, Su Wan continued to pick pine mushrooms. She had been stockpiling them for two days and had already filled two full baskets. She would sprinkle some water on them every morning, noon and evening to keep them fresh. She would work harder this afternoon and try to get a good price tomorrow. She had already agreed with He Jiaolan that they would take the village ox cart to the market to sell mushrooms early tomorrow morning.
The place they came to today didn't seem to be very prosperous. After picking for a long time, they only had a small basket. Su Wan thought, why not walk a little further inside? She couldn't be so unlucky that she would encounter a wild beast, right?
Hopefully, Su Wan walked in boldly. Sure enough, there were a lot of pine mushrooms inside. He Jiaolan said that pine mushrooms are the freshest in the first half of the month, otherwise they would become old!
She was having a lot of fun picking the fruits by herself when suddenly there was a noise nearby. A wild boar jumped out from the bushes and headed straight towards Su Wan. Seeing this, Su Wan's pupils suddenly dilated and she reacted subconsciously by running away.
"Oh my god!"
I was so unlucky. I was hoping for a lucky break and thought I wouldn't encounter any wild beasts, but I ended up encountering one. I don't know what kind of incredible luck I have.
The wild boar was chasing him relentlessly. There was a trap in front of him, covered with many branches. Su Wan could see at a glance that it was a big pit, so he quickly braked and rolled to the side, stopping just at the edge of the trap.
The wild boar obviously did not brake and fell into the trap. All the branches were pressed down by it, leaving a two-meter-deep pit underneath. Dust was flying all over the sky. Su Wan was covered in dust and coughed continuously. All the pine mushrooms in the basket had fallen out, and the basket in his hand was also flattened by himself. The only surviving part of the pine mushrooms in it had been crushed to pieces.
Hunter Jiang caught up from behind and saw this scene. He immediately went over to help Su Wan up.
"Girl, are you okay? Did you fall anywhere?"
Su Wan felt a slight pain in his knees, but other parts of his body were fine. However, it was one thing for a wild boar to suddenly jump out of the forest, but now a person suddenly jumped out as well.
"I'm fine, who are you, uncle?"
Looking closely, I saw that he was a bearded uncle. Although he was over 40 years old, he had handsome features.
