Chapter 22

When he saw that it was his daughters-in-law who came back, he frowned.

Especially when he saw the injuries on Chen Fang and Liu Xiao'e, he started to curse: "What were you doing? You went up the mountain to pick some mushrooms and look for medicinal herbs, how could you end up like this? Whose house did you rob?"

"Mom, don't mention it. The fourth son's wife and I have had bad luck along the way."

Liu Xiao'e began to cry out of grievance, and while crying she talked about what she had experienced along the way.

Only then did Bai Xiu Xiu realize what would happen next.

Later, Chen Fang was holding her up and accidentally fell into a big pit.

There was nothing good in that pit, and several poisonous snakes were crushed to death.

They were so scared that they almost fainted.

When Zhao Guifen heard this, his eyes lit up: "Where's the snake? This thing might be worth money!"

"Mom, we brought them all back. Even though the second and fourth sisters-in-law were unlucky, the three of us found a lot of good things." Zhou Jiaojiao proudly poured out all the herbs she had picked.

Seeing these things, Zhao Guifen's expression changed from gloomy to bright.

"There are so many good things in this mountain?" Zhao Guifen was already considering whether to go there herself.

"Mom, this is lucky for the fifth brother's wife and his family. My eldest sister-in-law and I don't have such a good fortune." Zhao Cuihua knew that her mother-in-law disliked her eldest sister-in-law, so she spoke first.

Let her be the one who gets scolded!

When Zhao Guifen saw Zhao Cuihua and Bai Xiuxiu's baskets, her face immediately darkened.

"Why did our family marry two useless things like you? How come other people can find good things but you two can't?" Zhao Guifen cursed.

But I don't doubt that these two people would cheat!

The third son's wife is her distant relative! Although they are not related by blood, they are still closer than others.

It's impossible to fake it, and I don't have the courage to do so.

Bai Xiuxiu was so lazy that she almost raised her eyelids: "Mom, you are wrong. No one else found anything good, only Lao Wu's wife and her friends did. I don't think anyone in the village would be so lucky except them."

Bai Xiuxiu's words frightened Zhao Guifen so much that her heart skipped a beat.

She knew that her daughter-in-law was lucky, so she wanted her to go up the mountain.

But what if other people knew about this?

Thinking about it, Zhao Guifen stopped cursing: "Okay, don't tell me this. Our family got something good, it's a blessing for our family!"

"Let your father sell these things later. We can also improve our living standards!" Zhao Guifen did not even mention sharing them with others.

This money must stay completely in your hands!

Seeing this scene, Zhao Cuihua was very glad that she listened to her sister-in-law. If these were taken out, most of them would go to her mother-in-law!

Bai Xiu Xiu had expected this. She put down the mushroom basket and went back to the house.

Zhao Cuihua was too lazy to look at other people's expressions and hurried back. She had to take good care of the herbs.

I won’t tell the third brother about the ginseng, but I still have to tell him about the medicinal herbs.

Otherwise it would be difficult for her to hide in the house.

Moreover, these things have to be exchanged for money by the third brother.

Just ask your elder brother and his wife to exchange the ginseng!

The two of them left happily, but the others who stayed behind were not so comfortable.

Especially Zhou Jiaojiao.

Zhou Jiaojiao really didn't expect that her mother-in-law didn't leave her anything! In the past, when she was at her parents' home, her mother would always give her half!

Chen Fang and Liu Xiao'e both wanted to curse at this moment.

In previous years, when they went up the mountain by themselves, they couldn't find these good things, but at least they could hide something else.

As a result, I ran into such an unlucky thing as Zhou Jiaojiao!

I couldn't hide at all and ended up with injuries all over my body.

Soon everyone went back to their rooms.

Not long after they came back, the men who were working at home also came back.

Wang Qinghe brought his two children back to the house and saw his wife sitting on the kang drinking water, seemingly in a good mood.

There are things covered with cloth on the sides.

When Bai Xiuxiu saw her husband coming back, she immediately waved at him and said, "I have something to show you."

As she spoke, she carried the two children to the kang, kissed each of them, and took out two pieces of White Rabbit cookies: "Mingming, Yueyue, did you cause any trouble when you went out with your dad today?"

The little girl immediately nestled in her arms and kissed her back: "Mom, Yueyue is so good!"

"I'll be good too!" Mingming hurried over.

They both nestled in her arms.

Looking at his wife and two children, Wang Qinghe's bad mood after having a nightmare last night disappeared in an instant.

He locked the door and sat on the kang: "What do you want to show me?"

Bai Xiu Xiu unfolded all the harvest they had gained in the mountains today.

Covered by the cloth is a pile of Astragalus. Astragalus is a treasure in itself. Although it is not expensive to sell, such a lot of Astragalus can be sold for at least ten yuan.

There is also a pile of wolfberries on the side.

"This...you went to the mountains?" This was Wang Qinghe's first reaction. When he thought of the dream, his face turned ugly.

He didn't remember much of the content of the dream. What he felt most was his own despair when he kept dreaming about Xiuxiu's death.

Covering the sky and the earth!

He wished he could just die and let her be.

Whenever Wang Qinghe thought about this, he felt terrified. He couldn't accept Xiuxiu going to any dangerous place.

He is good-looking, and his expression is not fierce when he is angry, except that his eyes are red.

Bai Xiuxiu was startled by his expression, but she was not afraid at all and asked him, "Are you mean to me?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, Wang Qinghe immediately became honest again: "I, I didn't. I was just worried about you..."

"I didn't go to the mountains. I just followed the third brother's wife and I, secretly following the fifth brother's wife. I don't know why the fifth brother's wife was particularly lucky, so we quietly walked ahead of them and snatched some things.

Don't worry, no one knows.

Moreover, we didn’t go deep into the mountains.

How could I, who is so afraid of death, go to the mountains? If something happens, what will happen to you and the two children?"

Bai Xiuxiu softly explained the origins of these things.

After her death in her previous life, she served as Ah Piao behind Wang Qinghe, and she knew very well what would become of this man if she died.

What will become of her well-behaved Mingming and Yueyue!

She can't die! No one can make her die!

Wang Qinghe was relieved: "That's good. With so many things... I'll find time to sell them."

Bai Xiuxiu nodded: "That's what I meant. I have already collected the astragalus seeds. Oh, and there is another thing."

Bai Xiu Xiu brought out the highlight.

Seeing the ginseng, Wang Qinghe was also shocked: "Why is there such a thing? This..."

Looking at those horrible scars on the ginseng, they were probably dug by my wife.

"My third son's wife and I saw it, but we both had the same idea. We didn't want to hand it over to our family. So we just dug it out secretly before they found out. Although the ginseng was damaged, it was better than getting nothing at all.

Find a way to sell this as soon as possible. We will split 70% and the third son’s wife will get 30%. "
