The Gan family was not reconciled after being struck by lightning last time. They came several more times, wanting Xiaoli to go back with them and hand over the silver.
However, Xiao Li was not someone to be trifled with, and she always refused firmly. Since Xiao Li had hired people to do the work, they didn't dare to forcibly take them away, so they went back cursing.
Today, Xiaoli's house is finally quiet, and the Gan family has come again.
"Xiao Li, your mother misses you. Come back with me now."
"Yes, we have enough to eat at home, so you will never go hungry."
"It's not safe for a girl like you to be out there all alone."
Xiao Li was too lazy to waste words with them. If it weren't for their kinship with the original owner, Xiao Li would have dealt with them long ago.
Several bolts of lightning struck, stunning the four people. Chen and Gan Xiaoping, in particular, felt even more pain this time, as if the pain from the previous strike had been compounded.
The four of them scrambled away, never daring to provoke Xiao Li again.
Xiao Li enjoyed a few peaceful days, planting vegetables and flowers in the yard, living a carefree life.
She thought for a long time. In this world, embroidery was the only skill that women could be considered to have, but the original owner of this body was just an ordinary peasant girl who was not proficient in embroidery at all.
Xiao Li decided to go back to farming; after all, a farm girl can only farm.
She went to town first, and when she came back, she brought back a burly maid named Xiao Jiu. Then she began the renovation in the courtyard.
She fenced off the yard, built a chicken coop, and raised a large flock of chickens.
Lotus roots were planted in the pond, and a large group of fish were also raised. Xiao Jiu did all of this. Xiao Li ate and drank well every day and was very comfortable.
The villagers were all watching and waiting, and rumors about Gan Xiaoli were spreading like wildfire: she had been divorced, she had been forced to live in a female household, she was being bullied by her own family, and her family was supposedly struck by lightning...
Now there's another maid who knows martial arts.
Last time, the village hooligan tried to harass them, but the maid twisted his arm with a light pinch. It was so brutal, but it made me feel so safe.
Gan San Niang even came to help several times, which made Xiao Li a little conflicted. She was unsure whether to help Gan San Niang get through this ordeal.
“Master, the female lead only came here after Gan San Niang died. You only need to help her overcome her death. If the female lead still wants to come here, then it is the will of Heaven.”
Xiao Li thought it made sense, so she gave Gan San Niang a protective jade amulet that could save her life.
Gan San Niang thought the jade talisman was particularly beautiful and wore it on her body every day.
One day, Xiao Wu cried out in hunger, and his mother, Zhang, was so worried that she kept shedding tears.
She hasn't been eating anything nutritious, so she has very little breast milk. Today, she has absolutely no breast milk left. What should she do?
She held back her tears and fed Xiao Wu some more water, but the water wasn't enough to satisfy him; Xiao Wu licked it a few times.
After a short while, he started crying again, this time his voice was even hoarser and he seemed even weaker.
There was absolutely nothing left to eat in the house.
Seeing her younger brother's face red from crying, Gan San Niang picked up her basket and went out. She had to do something; she couldn't watch her brother starve to death.
Gan San Niang followed the path up the mountain, hoping to encounter pheasants, rabbits, or something similar.
Even just some small birds, eggs would be nice, or at the very least some mushrooms, wild fruits, or wild vegetables would be fine.
Before she knew it, she had arrived at the sunny slope, a sunny slope with one side gentle and the other side somewhat steep.
She looked towards the steep mountain wall and suddenly discovered that a Ganoderma lucidum was growing there.
The last time she went to the pharmacy to sell honeysuckle, she saw someone selling this Ganoderma lucidum, and she was extremely envious at the time.
That small one sold for 5 taels of silver, and this Ganoderma lucidum is much bigger than that one.
Gan San Niang's heart skipped a beat. If she could pick this Ganoderma lucidum, she could exchange it for money to buy rice, and her younger brother would have food to eat.
Excitedly, she leaned forward, stretching her arm slowly towards the lingzhi mushroom. Closer, almost there, just a little bit more...
Suddenly, a snake darted out of the bushes and bit at Third Sister's hand.
"ah!"
