Chapter 30 For Whom

Today's events are not that simple.

As a lady who had been in the backyard for many years, Lin Wanrong was not a fool. She was just exiled here and wanted to make friends with the villagers. Since they had good intentions, she didn't think too much about it.

Now that I think about it, what that woman said today is quite intriguing.

She said that this fish is the best for health and is best for the elderly and children. If she hadn't met Xiao Wan on the way, she would definitely use the fish to make soup for the children and father-in-law when she got home.

The adults in the family are still in good health, and everyone has a unanimous opinion that if there are good things, they should be given to the children and the elderly.

Just one spoonful can kill you...

Lin Wanrong felt her hands trembling.

She almost killed her child and father-in-law. By the time she got home, she was already sweating and her face was pale.

"Mother!"

The two little brothers each held one side, worried. Upon hearing the sound, the twin brother and sister ran over and opened the door.

"Aunt is back!"

"Big Brother and Second Brother are back!"

The two kids were clingy but very well-behaved. When they saw that their aunt didn't look well and needed their brothers' support to go in, they immediately brought a small stool to her, and one of them ran to the kitchen and called his mother.

"Sister-in-law! What's wrong with you?!"

The second wife Xu Mingwei had always been close to her eldest sister-in-law. It was thanks to her eldest brother and sister-in-law that she was able to bring her two children to Lizhou Island alive during the exile. After going through hardships together, it was no exaggeration to say that the relationship between the two was like that of real sisters. Seeing her distressed look, Xu Mingwei's eyes turned red with anxiety.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little scared."

Lin Wanrong asked her son to take his younger siblings to the yard to play and then quietly told them what had just happened.

Xu Mingwei was no innocent girl either. She understood the twists and turns of the matter after thinking about it carefully.

"That person didn't let me see that he was prepared. I was also confused. I dared to take things given by a stranger."

Lin Wanrong remembered this lesson deeply. Even though it was just a small fishing village, she should not underestimate the people here.

"It's all thanks to Xiao Wan that this happened today. We should thank her very much. We must tell Big Brother and Ah He about this later when they come back. Everyone should also observe the people in the village and try to find out the details of that woman."

The reason for this incident is not difficult to guess. Just look at who will benefit in the end.

If my father-in-law and the children were killed today, my sister-in-law and I would be seriously injured after losing two children. I could still survive, but my sister-in-law brought the poison back to me personally, and I would never be able to get over it. I would not survive.

By then, my eldest brother would be left without a wife.

Oh.

Xu Mingwei was sure that her guess was 90% correct. Anyway, her next plan was to find out which unmarried girls and widows there were in the village.

Focus on those girls who have trouble getting married and have a bad reputation. Of course, other girls are also possible.

Although the eldest brother was exiled, he has a strong body and a handsome face, so there is no doubt that the brainless guy will take a fancy to him.

She will not let go of anyone who dares to target their children.

Jiang Wan has already returned home. Today's harvest is three small puffer fish. Yin Ning likes the cute little fish in the bucket very much and can't help asking her.

"Cousin, shall we have fish soup for lunch?"

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Cousin, if I cook this fish, would you dare to drink it? It's very poisonous~"

"Ah? It's poisonous!"

Yin Ning immediately retracted his hand, his eyes widened.

Jiang Wan was amused. She used a stick to puff up the three puffer fish in front of her, and then briefly talked about puffer fish.

"Cousin, you know so much..."

The longer Yin Ning spent with her cousin, the more she felt that she had wasted her life in the past. The books she read were all about rules and the stories were all about love. Now she didn't know anything and needed her cousin to teach her.

"Cousin, what books are you reading? I'll write them down. When my family has more money in the future, I'd like to buy some and read them."

Jiang Wan: “…”

How could she explain this?

"Ahem...it's been so long that I've forgotten the title of the book. When we can afford paper, I'll compile a booklet for you."

"Great, great, cousin, you are so nice!"

Yin Ning happily hugged Jiang Wan and refused to let go. Jiang Wan wished she could go back two seconds and slap herself twice.

Do you know how to read and dare to agree to edit a book?

Are you floating!

You don’t have any memory of the original owner at all!

You are illiterate here...

Jiang Wan swallowed her saliva. It seemed that she had to go back to the small stone house with her mother after dinner. She had to ask her mother to teach her how to read, otherwise she would be exposed sooner or later. And if she didn't know how to read, she wouldn't be able to understand a contract when doing business in the future.

It's too difficult. Why didn't she have any memories after traveling through time? She finally left the campus and now she has to start learning to read from scratch. Isn't this too difficult for her?

Thinking about the crooked, complicated and difficult characters of this era, her scalp tingled.

Jiang Wan tried to have fun despite the misery and poked those puffer fishes until they almost lost their temper.

Half an hour later, the sister-in-law and her husband who had been collecting herbs on the mountain returned home carrying a large basket of herbs. As soon as Yin Huaixi entered the house, she saw that what her daughter had poked was a pufferfish.

"Wanwan, why did you bring the pufferfish back?"

"Ah? I thought you might be useful."

Jiang Wan looked at A Niang in confusion. Didn’t A Niang also collect some of this kind of poisonous creatures in the past?

"Silly girl, don't you see that we have nothing at home now?"

The medicinal value of pufferfish is very good. It can relieve pain, diuresis and reduce swelling. Doctors should like it. But with the conditions at home, she couldn't get the tools to extract pufferfish toxin, so she could only watch.

"Well, we'll just have to throw them back into the sea."

Jiang Wan didn't dare to throw it away casually. What if someone she didn't know picked it up and fed it to the ducks or ate it themselves? She would be guilty of a serious crime. It was better to throw it into the sea to be safe.

Yin Huaixi looked at the bucket and suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Wanwan, you only caught pufferfish today?"

She didn't complain about her daughter not bringing back much, she knew her daughter too well. The fishing village was rich in supplies, and with her enthusiasm for fishing, it was impossible for her to only bring back such a small amount of things.

"Well... there was a little accident."

Jiang Wan told A Niang that Lin Wanrong had contracted puffer fish.

"Auntie Lin is so unlucky. She was targeted just a few days after entering the village."

Yin Huaixi sat down and patted his waist without saying a word.

As expected, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. This small fishing village is not necessarily peaceful.
