Jia Ruifang returned home and became happier and happier. With two capable sons, she no longer needed to work hard to please her current in-laws.
She used to live in the Xia family's house; those were the most comfortable days of her life.
Unfortunately, the Xia family soon fell into ruin, forcing her to sever ties with them in order to avoid being implicated.
If she had known the Xia family would return, she shouldn't have left so decisively. Perhaps it would have been better to listen to Xia Jingfan and take her two sons with her.
But it's not too late now. No child doesn't long for their mother. As long as she turns back, her two sons will definitely side with her. Maybe she can rely on them to remarry Xia Jingfan and return to the Xia family.
The more Jia Ruifang thought about it, the more excited she became. She glanced at her dirty husband, who was sitting outside talking to someone, with disdain.
She firmly believed that a wealthy and noble young man like Xia Jingfan was the one she should be with.
Yu Rujia's pharmacy was almost out of pills, and the Jingyan soap was almost gone.
Upon seeing the little ones who were going hunting in the mountains, Yu Rujia said, "I'll go with you."
Duole jumped up happily: "Mom, my martial arts have improved a lot recently. I'll kill some prey for you when we get to the mountain."
Yu Rujia: "Really? That's great! Our Duole has become so reliable."
Duole was so flattered that he scratched the back of his head and grinned so wide his eyes disappeared.
Dorje silently turned his gaze away. This idiot was unbearable to look at. He felt a pang of sadness; Dorje was much more reliable than Duole. Why didn't Mom praise him?
Thinking of this, Dorje said defiantly, "Mom, I can now move freely in the forest by myself. I can kill prey with a single strike."
Yu Rujia: "Dorgi is amazing, he's exceeded my expectations. But no matter what, you must have a companion by your side. If you encounter a group of prey, you'll have a helper, and I'll feel more at ease."
Dorje immediately grinned like a fool, scratching the back of his head, and said, "Yeah, my brothers are always with me, but when it comes to killing prey, I'm the only one who does it, I don't let my brothers do it."
Duo Shou, familiar with the place, brought out some more items: "Auntie, are the soaps in the shop sold out?"
While he went up the mountain to hunt, Duolu and the others would gather herbs; he was the largest supplier to the pharmacy.
When I get home, I still need to make pills.
Yu Rujia gave him 20% of the shop's revenue, not because she didn't want to give him more, but because the little guy was determined not to accept it.
Duo Shou is now the richest of the brothers.
Yu Rujia: "Yes, the soap is so popular that the last batch we made sold out completely."
Multifunctional soap, especially its skin-beautifying effects, can show noticeable results in just half a month. Such a valuable product with immediate effects is always highly sought after.
The high price of fifty yuan per piece cannot stop beauty lovers. Some people even stock up on several pieces at home to prevent stockouts.
Soap can be kept unopened for two or three years without any problems, so people who can afford it stock up without worry.
Duolu: "Didn't we only make a few hundred last month? They sold out in a month. Those people are too generous!"
Think about Shangfen Brigade, where many families can't afford to eat meat more than a few times a year, and there are plenty of people vying for jobs that only pay a few dozen yuan a month.
People work hard for a month and can't even afford a bar of soap, so it's unbelievable that so many people here are eyeing soap.
It can only be said that the little guy is still too young and a rough child, and doesn't understand the pursuit of beauty.
The shop goes through a lot of soap, and the kids are all very helpful; they always come to help whenever the soap is made.
To encourage the children's enthusiasm, Yu Rujia would reward them each time, mostly with snacks she made herself.
When she makes snacks, she adds spring water, which makes them taste better than those made by others.
The children, who have thousands of dollars in assets, said that money is not as attractive to them as a small meal cooked by their aunt.
Duo Shou: "We'll pick more mugwort leaves this time, and it would be best to have some in stock. There are no mugwort leaves here for several months in winter, and if we don't have any in stock, we'll sell out."
I went up the mountain last winter, and I know exactly what it's like inside.
In the winter in the north, it's hard to find a place as lush and green as Shangfen Brigade.
Yu Rujia said indifferently, "It's okay. If we run out of stock, so be it. It's good to have this income, but it doesn't matter if we don't. We've earned so much money, we won't go hungry, there's no need to work so hard."
Leaving aside Xia Jingshu's side, her pharmacy alone generates tens of thousands of yuan in net income every month. Closing the shop for a few months does not affect their family's quality of life at all.
Duoxi helped Duoshou load the things into the car: "Auntie, I'll pick mugwort with you later."
Doro patted his chest and said, "Leave the hunting to me. I'll keep an eye on Dorji and Dorle."
Yu Rujia: "Then thank you for your hard work."
Seeing everyone rushing up the mountain, Duoyi stretched out her chubby arms and hugged Yu Rujia's leg, gently shaking and rubbing against her, saying in her babyish voice, "Mom, I want to go up the mountain."
Everyone is usually busy with their own things. The little guy does his homework at home, and if his family isn't home, he stays quietly by Xia Yuanqiang's side. It's not as lively as when he's with his older brothers.
Seeing that the little dumpling was well-behaved and cuddly, Yu Rujia readily agreed.
Yu Rujia: "Okay, you can come with us to the mountain. Once we get there, you can only stay by Mom's side and can't leave our sight, understand?"
The talented little dumpling happily agreed, saying that he would do anything as long as he was with his mother and brothers.
The group boarded the tricycle with steamed buns, rolls, and two dogs.
The children in the family, Duolu, Duoshou, and Duoxi, have all learned to drive from Xia Jingshu, and the little ones are now quite adept at using cars.
Duolu skillfully started the tricycle and drove towards his destination.
Upon reaching the mountain, Duolu led Duojiduole and Mantouhuajuan to hunt, while Yurujia led the remaining three children to pick mugwort leaves.
When Duolu and his group came out with two wild boars and a few pheasants and rabbits, Yu Rujia and the others had already picked several large bags full of mugwort leaves, enough to make thousands of bars of soap.
Without Duoshou and Duoxi by their side, Duolu, along with Duoji and Duole, dared not go too far. Duoji was alright, but Duole was truly half-baked. He could catch one or two wild boars without any problem, but he couldn't handle more than that.
For safety reasons, the group could only wander around the perimeter, and it took them a long time before they encountered a wild boar.
Two wild boars, Duolu and Duojiduo carried one on their backs, while the pheasant and rabbit were carried back by Mantouhuajuan. This shows that no one who went into the mountains, including the dogs, returned empty-handed.
Duoshu Duoxi hurriedly stepped forward, took the wild boar, threw it into the tricycle, and then casually took the prey from the backs of the two dogs and put it in the vehicle.
