"Old woman, tell me, does this Yue family know how to process medicinal herbs?"
The clan chief asked with a hint of anticipation.
Wang frowned, thinking about what Yue had said the night before, and dismissed her old man's wild ideas.
"I don't think so. Didn't she say that she saw someone selling it before and remembered that it was a kind of wild grass? That's why she dug it up one by one and asked her third son to ask at the town clinic to find out which kind of herb it was?"
"Sigh! Never mind, it's good enough if the people in our village can earn a couple of copper coins. You should also see who to send up the mountain to dig for medicinal herbs, and send a few kids to spread the word to each household. I'll also go to the clan elders' house and tell them this good news first."
After saying this, the clan chief left with his hands behind his back, and Wang Shi began to arrange for her family members, deciding which son and daughter-in-law would go up the mountain to dig for medicinal herbs, and which grandsons would go out to spread the word.
She wasn't idle either; she also had close old friends. Of course, the sooner you know about this money-making opportunity, the better. People always have varying degrees of closeness and distance.
(︶.?︶?)
Lin Chaobei was full of energy today. Without Yue Jiuyue's prompting, he swung the hoe high and dug up medicinal herbs. He was incredibly energetic, and even though he was drenched in sweat, it couldn't stop his love for this land.
Meanwhile, Yue Jiuyue, seeing that her balance had reached a full seven taels of silver, smiled like a blooming flower—a black one, the kind that had already withered.
Suddenly, a sentence came to mind: She is ugly, but she is very gentle.
Hmm, it doesn't seem to suit her. She's still a wicked mother-in-law.
"His auntie is great!"
More villagers passed by the mountain and greeted Yue Jiuyue from afar.
"Hello, sister-in-law! You're here to dig for medicinal herbs too? Come join us!"
Yue Jiuyue wore a fake smile and politely invited the other party.
"No need, let's go to that hill over there, let's go!"
A group of people left in a flash.
This is the umpteenth group of people. If they pass by the hill that Yue Jiuyue is digging, they will greet Yue Jiuyue politely, and they will never come up the hill to compete with Yue Jiuyue. They all go to other hills.
Suddenly I realized that these villagers were actually quite lovely.
Yue Jiuyue lowered her head and continued to dig for medicinal herbs with her hoe, also taking advantage of the nearby goosegrass, plantain, and other plants to gather them all at once.
"Mother, Fourth Brother, I've come to bring you some water. Come and rest for a bit and have some water."
Suddenly, Liu came over with a basket and Xiaoman. When they got up the mountain, she took out a pottery jar and two bowls from the basket.
"Oh my! Sister-in-law, you've come at just the right time! I was so thirsty!"
As she spoke, she picked up the two bowls of water that Liu had poured and handed one of them to Yue Jiuyue.
"Mom, have some water."
After drinking two bowls of water, Lin Chaobei grinned broadly and turned back to continue swinging his hoe.
While Yue Jiuyue was drinking water from her bowl, Liu placed Xiaoman next to Yue Jiuyue, picked up the hoe Yue Jiuyue was using, and began digging for medicinal herbs.
Yue Jiuyue did not stop her.
She looked at Liu Shi today, and she seemed a little different.
Perhaps it was the smile on his face?
In the two days since she transmigrated, she had never seen Liu smile. She was always either looking miserable or crying. Just looking at her made her irritable. Her mood was already bad, and having someone like this in front of her made her feel like she was about to explode at any moment.
And now, this Liu family member actually smiled. Indeed, the allure of money is the greatest!
