Chen Xiuxiang was stunned when she saw the one dollar bill. She felt a mouthful of blood stuck in her throat. She had such a thick stack of money, and yet she was only given one dollar!
"Bah, you're sending beggars away!" Chen Xiuxiang sat down on the ground, not caring whether it was dirty or not. "I've cut off all my escape routes. If I don't get the money I want today, no one can drive me away!"
"Don't want it?" Tao Wenwen pretended to put the money back into her pocket. "I gave it to you, but you didn't want it. Don't come back and say I didn't give it to you later."
Seeing this, Chen Xiuxiang quickly reached out and snatched the money away. One dollar is still money.
She was very confident that if she could get Tao Wenwen to pay one dollar, she would get Tao Wenwen to pay more money.
"This one dollar is for your travel expenses back home, considering you came all the way to the countryside. As for the rest, it's not yours. Even if you think about it forever, it will never be yours." Tao Wenwen saw Chen Xiuxiang's thoughts and made her point clear. "I'm not my mother. If you want to take advantage of me, you might as well just die in the field."
This is so heartless.
But it also clearly expressed Tao Wenwen's attitude.
Chen Xiuxiang sat on the ground in a daze, and suddenly forgot to start the scene of crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to hang herself.
After being quiet for a while, Chen Xiuxiang started a new round of crying. She still didn't believe that Tao Wenwen would really leave her alone. Even if she cried to death, she would definitely teach Tao Wenwen a lesson!
Chen Xiuxiang was full of confidence. She cried, howled, and cursed Tao Wenwen.
Tao Wenwen didn't even take Chen Xiuxiang's scissors away. He glanced at her and said, "If you damage even half a flower of mine, all the losses will be charged to your son."
Then she walked away.
Walking over to the women in charge of picking, Tao Wenwen said, "Continue with what you are doing. Today is the last day of picking, and then come to me to collect your wages."
When everyone heard that they would get their wages immediately, they became very motivated and threw themselves into the new round of work.
They were already disgusted by Chen Xiuxiang's shameless behavior, so when they did things, they just ignored Chen Xiuxiang.
Tao Wenwen was very satisfied with their tactful attitude. She clapped her hands and returned to the pharmacy where she prepared the herbs.
Gao Yue watched a good show, but found that he came here but didn't get any chance to show his skills. In the final analysis, Tao Wenwen was too powerful, and his boyfriend looked like a decoration.
He followed Tao Wenwen to the pharmacy to watch them operate.
In the field, Chen Xiuxiang was very arrogant. She cursed at the herbalists who walked past her. She thought that since they were working for Tao Wenwen, they were also working for her, so she gave them random orders.
It’s a pity that the herbalist ignored her at all.
Chen Xiuxiang kept making a fuss like this for a long time, and even the onlookers left. Moreover, she was already hungry after making such a long time, and she didn't have much energy to make a fuss anymore. In the end, she just sat on the ground without saying a word, looking dusty and very frustrated.
The last batch of honeysuckle was picked and sent to the pharmacy, and even the herbalists dispersed.
It was almost dark by then.
Chen Xiuxiang finally felt scared and crawled out of the field onto the road in boredom. When she saw Tao Minghong and Tao Minggu coming to pick her up from afar, she was no longer so scared.
Tao Minggu imagined that Chen Xiuxiang had plundered a lot of money from Tao Wenwen and Wang Xiaomin again. When he saw Chen Xiuxiang, he rushed over and asked, "Mom, how's it going? How much did you get today?"
"Let's go back first!" Chen Xiuxiang's voice became softer due to tiredness.
Tao Minggu knew something was wrong the moment he heard the voice. "What's the matter? Didn't you get the money?"
"I'm hungry. Go home first. Don't you understand?" Chen Xiuxiang took out the anger she got from Tao Wenwen on Tao Minggu.
Tao Minggu specially called for an ox cart to pick up Chen Xiuxiang. He was sure that she would return with a full load, so he spent the money to rent the ox cart.
When they got back to the car, they heard Chen Xiuxiang say that she hadn't gotten the money. Tao Minggu was so angry that he swung the whip in his hand and said, "What are you going to do if you don't get the money? You should just stay here until you get the money!"
"It's not working. Tao Wenwen is not the same Tao Wenwen anymore. She won't buy this anymore." Chen Xiuxiang said frustratedly as she realized the truth.
"If we can't get the money, we will all be starving in the future!" Tao Minggu was so angry that he swung the whip in his hand again.
The cow's butt was hurt by the swing, and it ran madly. Chen Xiuxiang didn't sit firmly and fell off the ox cart.
…
Tao Wenwen has finished preparing the honeysuckle, and the harvest of dried flowers can reach 100 kilograms. Tao Wenwen did not expect that the first batch of harvest would achieve such results.
The market price of dried flowers is now nine yuan per kilogram. Excluding the cost of about one hundred yuan she spent from start to finish, her net profit is nearly eight hundred yuan.
All of a sudden she went from being short of funds to being a slightly wealthy woman.
Tao Wenwen came out of the pharmacy with the money, looking very heroic and confident.
Gao Yue drove her to the pharmacy specially and saw Tao Wenwen sell the honeysuckle with her own eyes. After getting the money, her whole body straightened up, and she couldn't help laughing.
"Let's go, I'll take you to eat something delicious!" Tao Wenwen got in the car, and the first thing she did was to wave the money in front of Gao Yue, as if she had forgotten that Gao Yue was much richer than her.
She was happy, and Gao Yue was in a good mood too. He was also hungry, so he said without hesitation, "Please treat me to a bowl of seafood noodles."
To eat seafood, one has to go into the city. Tao Wenwen was just about to say that she would treat him to a different meal today and then treat him to seafood noodles in the city tomorrow, but the next second, Gao Yue started the car and drove into the city.
The two sat in the noodle shop, ordered two bowls of seafood noodles, and also asked for two tea eggs.
It was a simple meal, but Gao Yue ate it with gusto, and even peeled the shrimps in Tao Wenwen's bowl.
Seeing him eat noodles, Tao Wenwen also had a big appetite, but her stomach was small, so she couldn't eat any more after eating half a bowl of noodles and a tea egg.
Gao Yue naturally took her bowl and ate the remaining half bowl of noodles.
One bowl was not enough for him, and one bowl was too much for her. The two of them cooperated just right. Tao Wenwen was not used to Gao Yue's approach at first, but after doing it more often, she got used to it and didn't think it was a big deal.
The shop was owned by a young couple. Watching Gao Yue peeling shrimps for Tao Wenwen and finishing off her leftover noodles, the woman's eyes sparkled with envy.
"See? He's so rich and drives a luxury car, but he hasn't turned bad. He's still so good to his wife and even helps her peel the shrimp shells." The woman couldn't help but say.
The man refused to give in, "If I could have such a beautiful wife, I would be willing to serve her every day!"
The woman frowned, and the smile on her face disappeared. "You once said that I am the most beautiful woman in your heart!"
"I'm just kidding, don't take it seriously... You are still the most beautiful in my heart!" The man immediately backed off.
Before the noodles were served, Tao Wenwen had already paid the bill. After Gao Yue finished the remaining half bowl of noodles, the two left. They had no idea how to have a meal and almost started a fight.
