Chapter 587 Collecting Medicinal Materials

Zhou Gaier disappeared for three whole days. Jiang Guangyi originally thought that she was playing around or was afraid of being beaten, so she hid somewhere in the village. But after three days without returning, the grandfather and grandson began to worry.

After all, the money to find a son-in-law for Jiang Sanniu could only be obtained by selling Zhou Gaier.

Everyone is gone, where can I get the money?

The grandfather and grandson, who had lost half a pound of silver, searched everywhere in the village.

However, after searching everywhere, including in the mountains and almost turning the entire village upside down, there was no sign of Zhou Gai'er.

Such a living person suddenly disappeared from the world. Even if the villagers disliked Jiang Guangyi's family, they all spontaneously helped to look for him when they heard about it.

After searching for another two days, there was still no sign of Zhou Gaier.

Until one afternoon, someone came to Jiang Guangyi's house to report that a hunter from Chenjia Village accidentally found a corpse in a grass nest while hunting in the mountains outside the village. The corpse was smelly and rotten.

The hunter kindly dragged the body back.

Many people ran to see the excitement.

Several of the most gossipy old women in Jiangjia Village also ran over to take a look, and recognized at a glance that the corpse was the missing Zhou Gaier.

Several people hurried back to tell Jiang Guangyi.

Upon hearing that Zhou Gaier had died, Jiang Guangyi's face was full of regret. It was not that he was sad, but that he hated himself for not taking good care of her. Half a tael of silver was gone just like that.

When a person dies, his value is gone.

He even refused to bring back Zhou Gaier's body for a proper burial.

The kind-hearted hunter wanted to be a good person to the end. He couldn't bear to see Zhou Gai'er rot outside, so he simply dug a hole at the foot of the mountain and buried Zhou Gai'er.

After the storm, the villagers became more disgusted with Jiang Guangyi.

We are a family, no matter how much hatred and resentment we have, we shouldn't be so cruel.

After this incident, Jiang Linfeng, who was adopted, felt a little soft-hearted. Seeing that his relatives were living such a miserable life, he wanted to buy two acres of land for them.

I have since given up on this idea.

Some people are beyond help.

He just thought that his biological parents were dead, so who was Jiang Guangyi? He didn't know him.

It was soon mid-November, and some of the medicinal herbs in the wasteland of Jiangjia Village could be harvested.

Jiang Fubao handed over the clinic to his apprentices and returned to the village early in the morning on the fifteenth day.

While wandering around the wasteland, she heard many people talking about Jiang Guangyi.

"Tsk tsk, Jiang Guangyi is so cruel. Zhou Gaier at least gave him two grandsons. Although he didn't raise them, he also gave him three granddaughters. No matter how bad that girl was, at least she knew how to work. Jiang Guangyi refused to drag her body back. Tsk tsk, this kind of person is not afraid that Zhou Gaier will come to find him at night."

"If you ask me, Lin Feng's family is smart. They adopted him early. If he had continued to stay in his house, he would have ended up like his brother Lin Gu sooner or later. Some died, some became disabled, and there would be no good life now."

"You're right. Jiang Guangan has no children, so he treats Lin Feng like his own son. Lin Feng is also very filial. He takes care of all the housework for his two sons and never lets Jiang Guangan do anything. He is the happiest person in the village. He walks around all day long, and when he smiles, his face has more wrinkles than before."

"He was also very good to Lin Feng. He said that he would leave all the money, houses and land to Lin Feng. When Lin Feng's eldest daughter, Da Niu, got married, Jiang Guangan gave her a dowry of two taels of silver and bought her two sets of clothes. There is no other such person in the village. Da Niu has a very strong position in her husband's family. In my opinion, Lin Feng should be filial to him."

A few people huddled together and didn't notice Jiang Fubao who was eavesdropping nearby.

"God has eyes. Those who live peacefully will not have a bad life. Jiang Guangyi's family, except for Lin Feng, is not good. From the old to the young, they are all bad. I even suspect that God has sent a message to Lin Feng in his dream, otherwise why would the always honest Lin Feng clamor to be adopted? Just wait and see, Jiang Guangyi's hard days are still to come."

"That's right. Fang Silang beats them up every day. There's not a single piece of good flesh left on the grandfather and grandson. Do you think I don't know because you don't go out? Hahahaha, I saw it secretly while lying on the crack of the door."

"......"

"Hey, Fubao is here. Look, Auntie was busy chatting about family matters and didn't even see you. But can we harvest the herbs in the field?"

Jiang Fubao had been listening for a long time before these ladies noticed her.

"Yes, we can harvest them tomorrow. Please go call the others and I will tell you how to harvest the herbs, what to pay attention to, and which ones can be harvested and which ones cannot be harvested."

Jiang Fubao put on a smile and said to them.

"Okay, Fubao has spoken, so Auntie must listen. Let's go, go and call for help."

Several people dispersed at once.

Jiang Fubao continued to squat down and observe the condition of the medicinal materials.

The words she just heard kept circling in her mind.

Zhou Gaier is dead?

good!

People like this deserve to die. It's a blessing that she is still alive.

She favors sons over daughters and treats her daughter as a delinquent. She deserves to die on the same day as Jiang Lingu.

Thinking of Fang Silang torturing them every day.

Jiang Fubao even hummed a tune happily.

Fortunately, she sent Fang Silang back to Jiang Guangyi's home, otherwise there would be no good show to watch.

Jiang Guangyi's house on the other side.

Fang Silang had been living a good life. He would eat and drink his fill every day and then lie down on the bed to sleep, doing nothing. In just half a month, he had gained weight and was stronger than before.

Jiang Guangyi and Jiang Sanniu, who were beaten by him every day, became so thin that they no longer looked like human beings. The faces of the two grandfathers and grandsons were swollen and purple every day.

The wailing sounds were heard every day.

Jiang Guangyi was too embarrassed to go out.

Afraid that others would laugh at him.

In the morning, Jiang Fubao, who had just finished a small meeting with the villagers, returned home from the wasteland.

Taking advantage of her free time, she played games with the children at the end of the village. The laughter spread throughout the foot of the mountain. The adults were busy in the wasteland, and the children were playing happily.

Jiang Kang and his sister stuck to her, and Jiang Fubao had a little tail.

After staying in Jiangjia Village for three days and collecting all the medicinal herbs, Jiang Fubao returned to the town with several carts of herbs.

The horse-drawn carriages used to transport the medicinal materials were borrowed from here and there, including ones from the Kong family, the Dong family, and the Meng family.

Even Jiang Fubao borrowed the horse-drawn carriage from several familiar Hakka families.

After all the medicinal materials were transported to the clinic, Jiang Fubao and his apprentices began to prepare them.

In the blink of an eye, the end of the year is here.

There is still one day left for Jiang Wangyou and Kong Mingxue to get married.

Jiang's Snack Shop, Yaoxiang Restaurant and Jiang Wangyou's Youran Embroidery Shop are all closed.

Making money is not as important as Jiang Wangyou getting married.

Even the children who were studying in school have returned.

In this year's college entrance examination, Jiang Tongmu finally made it to the list. Although he was ranked at the bottom, he was still a scholar, which made Zhang Jinlan very happy. She set up several tables for him.

The Jiang family now has two scholars and one student.
