"Yes, there is a woman who is even more extraordinary by your side."
Chu Yan's gaze was gentle and tender as he looked at Ye Nian'an, showering her with praise and saying with immense pride, "Yes, my wife is the most unique woman in the world."
This made Ye Nian'an laugh heartily.
"By the way, Yan-ge, are you tired right now? There's still some time before we start work, how about we go for a walk in the back mountain?"
It's currently the hottest time of the year, so work hours have been postponed to 4 PM to avoid the hottest period.
Otherwise, it would be too easy for people to suffer from heatstroke, which would reduce manpower and waste money, which would be a loss.
Regardless of whether Su Mingyue discovered any treasures in the back mountain, what methods she used, whether she wanted to hand them over or hide them for the black market, it was none of Ye Nian'an's business.
It's too late to find out now; otherwise, Ye Nian'an could have taken the initiative, followed Su Mingyue, and stored the treasures she discovered in her spatial storage.
Who told this woman to offend me first?
Now, it's likely that Su Mingyue has already dug up and hidden that treasure, making it very difficult to find again.
However, after Meng Sufang said that, Ye Nian'an also felt like going to the back mountain to take a look.
"Okay, I'll listen to my wife."
Since Ye Nian'an had taken the initiative to speak, how could Chu Yan refuse?
After finishing their meal and tidying up, the two of them held hands and headed to the back mountain.
That side.
When Su Mingyue was serving Li Qiuxia at the Bai family home, she seemed absent-minded.
"Su Zhiqing... Su Zhiqing!"
Li Qiuxia called out to Su Mingyue several times before she reacted: "Ah, Aunt Li, what's wrong?"
"I'm thirsty, I want to drink water, please get me a glass of water!"
Li Qiuxia now finds fault with everything Su Mingyue does, and even when she's sick, her tone and attitude are extremely unpleasant.
Suppressing her anger, Su Mingyue poured Li Qiuxia a glass of water: "Aunt Li, please drink this."
Li Qiuxia took a sip, then immediately frowned and put the glass on the table beside her: "It's so cold, how can my body stand it? Make it warm!"
"You even claim to know medicine? Don't you even understand this basic principle?"
"..."
Su Mingyue clenched her fists secretly.
Why doesn't that old geezer just die? He just stays alive at home and is a nuisance!
If she weren't afraid of being found out and having her life ruined, Su Mingyue would have loved to kill herself with this stuff.
Only in this way can Bai Yuxiao and I gain true freedom!
Li Qiuxia's temper was already bad due to her long-term poor health, and in order to accept Su Mingyue, she forced her eldest son and daughter-in-law to fight and move out of the family home.
Ultimately, however, it is Li Qiuxia who benefits, and she has no right to say anything more.
But if Li Qiuxia were such an easy-going person, her second and third daughters-in-law wouldn't prefer to go to work rather than take on the task of serving her.
As a result, Su Mingyue suffered a great deal of torment at the hands of Li Qiuxia, and had no way to express her grievances.
Why did the system insist on having to pursue Bai Yuxiao on its own? It's like having to suffer without a reason.
Now, after serving her with utmost care for over a year, and finally seeing Li Qiuxia's opinion of her change and having reformed Bai Yuxiao, she thought she had completed half of her mission.
Furthermore, due to the whistleblower letter, coupled with various rumors about Yang Qiaoqiao and Zhang Aihua, the situation worsened.
Well, we're back to square one!
Li Qiuxia was furious, believing that Su Mingyue had ruined the Bai family's reputation, and she made all sorts of sarcastic remarks.
If it weren't for Bai Yuxiao's strong favoritism, and the fact that Li Qiuxia genuinely needed Su Mingyue's service,
It's estimated that they had already overruled all objections and driven Su Mingyue out of the Bai family long ago.
Su Mingyue patiently changed Li Qiuxia's glass of warm water, then excused herself to deliver food to Bai Yuxiao and the others and hurriedly left.
Otherwise, if she stayed any longer, Su Mingyue was afraid she wouldn't be able to control herself and would want to strangle Li Qiuxia.
Delivering meals was one thing, but taking tools up the back mountain to dig for treasures was another.
Following the coordinates provided by the system, Su Mingyue secretly went up the back mountain these past few days and searched everywhere. Finally, she found the treasure.
It's a ginseng root buried in the ground!
It's been around for quite a while, and it's also very big!
To ensure that ginseng can fetch a good price, its roots must be dug out along with a large clump of soil, and then carefully cleaned bit by bit.
Last night, while everyone was asleep, Su Mingyue secretly ran away from the Bai family and went up the back mountain to dig up ginseng.
For this precious treasure, Su Mingyue was practically gambling with her life. At this time of year, in the dead of night, the danger in the back mountain was self-evident.
Su Mingyue herself was walking with a heart full of fear, afraid of encountering poisonous snakes or wild beasts and something bad happening to her.
Fortunately, with the recent busy farm work, hardly anyone has the leisure time to go up the back mountain like Su Mingyue.
Even so, we still need to act quickly.
Otherwise, if something "what if" were to happen and someone else discovered it and dug it up first, Su Mingyue could find a coffin to hug and cry.
...
Chu Yan and Ye Nian'an had already gone up to the back mountain.
Having traveled the road from the beginning to Houpu Township several times, the two were already very familiar with the place.
However, the back mountain is so big, and there are still many paths we haven't explored yet. This time, Ye Nian'an suggested that we try a different path.
"Niannian, there seem to be traces of someone walking here."
At this moment, Chu Yan suddenly spoke up, pointing ahead: "Someone has cut through the bushes with something, creating a path. The marks look very fresh."
Ye Nian'an raised an eyebrow: "Hmm? Could it be that Su Zhiqing walked through here?"
There's only one new trace left in Ye Nian'an's mind: Su Mingyue. Lately, she's been so free that she's been running around the back mountain digging for treasures.
"Maybe other people who come to sweep the mountains want to catch some wild game to take back for a meal."
"Okay, Brother Yan, let's take this route and see if we can find some medicinal herbs, mushrooms, and maybe even hunt some wild rabbits, so we can have an extra meal."
"good."
Ye Nian'an didn't take it to heart. Even if it really was left behind by Su Mingyue, firstly, after a few days, the treasure would definitely be taken away by her.
Secondly, even if she didn't dig it out, the back mountain is so big, who knows what path she might take next? Maybe there's something else disguised there.
However, if she comes across anything good, Ye Nian'an will gladly accept it, since she has a spatial ability and can take it away in an instant.
As they walked, Chu Yan suddenly made a shushing gesture.
"Niannian, there's a rabbit's burrow over there."
For the experienced Chu Yan, locating the rabbit's burrow was not difficult.
Wild rabbits prefer to build their burrows in relatively secluded, dry places with good cover. Their droppings are black like peas, and rabbits easily leave traces when they run around. Although the entrance to the burrow is small, the opening is smooth.
Experienced hunters can easily find their lair by starting with these clues.
But we were lucky; we found a rabbit's burrow not long after we went deep into the area.
If we catch them, they can have an extra meal tonight.
