After the people behind put the tiger's body into the space ring, they rejoined the team.
Yun Ruoxi secretly observed the reactions of Village Chief Li's family. She only looked at the road and did not stare at the Xiao family.
She was still very dissatisfied with the tact of Village Chief Li's family.
Everyone continued on their way, while Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue chatted as they went.
Suddenly, Wei Da, who was walking in front, exclaimed, "Master, come and see, there is a large field of chestnuts here."
Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jing looked at each other and followed. They saw that it was indeed a large chestnut forest.
Yun Ruoxi smiled and said, "I didn't expect there to be so many hairy chestnuts. Now that we're safe, let's take a break. This is a good opportunity to pick some chestnuts here."
When they heard that it was time to rest, the village head's wife and Mrs. Li put down their backpacks and prepared to cook for everyone.
Yun Ruoxi knew that the village chief's family had lost most of their valuables because of the Langya Mountain bandits.
Finding chestnuts in the mountains now is also an opportunity for Village Chief Li’s family.
"Auntie, the village chief, don't bother cooking. We can just cook the meal ourselves."
The village head's wife suddenly became anxious and explained in a panic, "Is it because the food I cooked is not tasty?"
"The food cooked by the village chief's aunt is delicious, but you have fled all the way here, I am afraid you have lost all the money you have. There are many good things in this mountain. If you can help me pick chestnuts, I can buy them for ten cents per pound."
Yun Ruoxi didn't know what the market price was outside, but since she had asked Village Chief Li and his family to work, she must pay them.
The village chief's wife and Mrs. Li had never expected such a good thing to happen.
Knowing that the Xiao family is large, it would not be difficult for the Xiao family to pick chestnuts even without their help.
Everyone knew that this was clearly an attempt to help Village Chief Li's family.
The previous village chief’s wife loved to take advantage of small opportunities. Village Chief Li had told her many times, but she still insisted on her own way.
Now he actually has no intention of taking advantage of the Xiao family and is actually influenced by Yun Ruoxi.
"Our family has been blessed by the Xiao family. How can we take advantage of the Xiao family now?"
Yun Ruoxi was worried that Village Chief Li's family would feel a psychological burden, so she explained, "You know, we've never done any heavy work before, and we don't want to move when it's hot. If you're willing to help, it would be a great help to us."
Village Chief Li, who was listening on the side, knew the Xiao family's intention and said hurriedly, "In that case, I would like to thank Madam Xiao for taking care of me."
"You don't have to be polite, village chief. We are helping each other."
After saying that, Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue found an open place and prepared to set up camp.
This chestnut forest is quite large, and she plans to stay here for three days. Regardless of whether she can pick all the chestnuts in the end, three days is the limit.
Since you are going to stay for a few days, you need to arrange accommodation there.
Mu Ruxue: "Xixi, let me help you."
But since they are girls after all, it is a bit troublesome for them to set up the tent.
Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jingxuan had set up a tent on the top of the mountain before and hurried over to help.
Zhao smiled and said, "You two should stop working and sit down to rest for a while. Let them do the rest."
Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue looked at each other, nodded, put down the things in their hands, and came to Zhao.
It turned out that when Yun Ruoxi was talking to Village Chief Li just now, Zhao took out a table and chairs from her space ring.
Now I have helped my grandmother sit on a chair to rest, and I have taken out a parasol to block the sun.
Yun Ruoxi looked at the scene, which was a bit like a modern rural area in summer, with parasols on the roadside and farmers selling fruits on the roadside.
Speaking of fruits, the weather was so hot, Yun Ruoxi took out watermelon and some other fruits from the space.
The watermelon was chilled and it felt a bit cold when I took it out.
Mu Ruxue took out a fruit knife from her space ring and helped cut the watermelon.
Yun Ruoxi also took out mung bean soup and some food.
If you are tired from work, you can come over to eat something, have some fruit, and take a break.
Of course, when everyone took things out of the space ring, they would use the backpack as a cover before taking them out.
Otherwise, if Village Chief Li and his family were here, they would be shocked to see that they could create things out of thin air.
The nine brothers have consciously put on gloves and started picking chestnuts. Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue also made some empty backpacks for everyone to pick chestnuts and put them in first.
When the backpack is full, put it into the sack, which will make walking more convenient.
The five brothers of the Duke of England's mansion saw the fruit and came over. They ate a few pieces each. Since they had nothing to do anyway, they went to hunt wild animals in the surrounding mountains.
Yun Ruoxi knew that her brothers were highly skilled in martial arts and had firearms in their hands, so they would definitely not be in danger, so she let them go.
In the end, the only people picking chestnuts in the forest were Village Chief Li's family and his nine brothers.
Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jingxuan stayed with them to protect everyone's safety.
Mu Ruxue observed the surrounding woods and said, "Xixi, I didn't expect the environment in ancient times to be so good. We can rest here for a few days, just like going on a picnic."
"Isn't it? It's a rare opportunity to have a few days off, so I can take a good rest these days."
Xiao Jingrui: "Fortunately, our home is now deep in the mountains, far away from the village, and most people don't come here."
Jamel Xiao said disdainfully, “If we don’t say we are lucky, it’s really worth it for these nine brothers to receive it.”
This time, three tents were set up again. After sitting outside for a while, my grandmother couldn't stand it anymore, so Zhao helped her go into the tent to rest.
Xiao Jing saw a lot of chestnuts around him, so he picked up a small backpack and went to pick chestnuts.
Yun Ruoxi felt that her father-in-law now had an inexplicable sense of relaxation. He didn't have to worry about anything and everything seemed fine.
This also has an advantage, which is that the family will be more harmonious.
Mu Ruxue whispered, "I always feel like our father-in-law has already retired early."
Yun Ruoxi nodded in agreement.
"I feel the same way!"
Xiao Jingrui chuckled, "Father never had much ambition. If he hadn't known that Xiao Bin wasn't my grandfather's biological son, I'm afraid the title of Marquis of Wu'an wouldn't have been his."
Yun Ruoxi: "I see!"
Everyone was chatting and laughing, and this marked the beginning of a short vacation.
Listening to the laughter of the Xiao family, Village Chief Li and his family felt relaxed unconsciously, knowing that the Xiao family was protecting them all the way.
Village chief Li is particularly grateful that there is still an opportunity to make money.
In order to pick chestnuts in this area, I stayed in the mountain for three days.
