Su Nanxi asked Xiao Wu to take Old Man Lu to find someone, and to send Gao Yuling away as well.
Gao Yuling wasn't very willing, but she hadn't been careful with her words last night and had fallen into Su Nanxi's trap. She had made a boastful statement that she didn't want to go back to see her older brother, but she still had to go through the motions!
She didn't want Su Su to see her make a fool of herself, so she pretended to be very happy and vowed to definitely complete the mission and come back!
I was actually almost in tears inside!
Grandma Mo knew she was going back to see her brother, so she prepared a lot of food for her. After all, we're farmers, so we have local specialties and snacks. That's what we usually give as gifts. We don't have anything else, just a token of our appreciation!
She packed and bagged everything, making a lot of rustling noises. Anyone who didn't know better would think that Kao Yu-ling was packing her bags and going home, never to return!
Grandma Mo still felt it wasn't enough, and thought she could find some other things to bring along!
Ah! Kind-hearted and simple-minded farmers!
This made Kao Yu-ling very embarrassed. Although she gave a fixed amount of money every month for rent and food expenses, she felt that she was getting more than her money's worth!
Look at all this stuff in this truck!
If her brother and that Mr. Chen saw this, they'd be laughing their heads off!
This is enough to feed them for many days. Their meals will be greatly improved, and they'll get the best food ever. Wouldn't that be hilarious?
snort!
I didn't want to see their smug looks, so I ate and then made sure to annoy her!
But with everything prepared, how could she possibly say she didn't want to go back!
Just consider it helping Su Su out this once. Calm down, it's just a trip back, it's no big deal!
Before leaving, Su Nanxi handed Xiao Wu a small bag and gave him some instructions, telling him to make sure to introduce Old Man Lu to the right people and help him get the medicine!
As Old Man Lu listened, he convinced himself that there was a powerful figure behind him!
No wonder that ugly girl didn't want to help; it turns out she didn't want to help because she really couldn't!
Without an introduction, it's truly difficult to find the expert behind this, let alone obtain the right medicine!
People with real ability tend to have a bit of an eccentric temperament. There's no way around it; they have the ability to back it up. They don't need to ask others for help; others have to beg them on their knees!
This is understandable and tolerable. As long as we can get the good medicine in the end, it's worth it even if we have to endure some difficulties!
Such a highly skilled person doesn't easily reveal themselves; to encounter one is a blessing!
Let's not talk about others, but about himself. Relying on his superior medical knowledge, wasn't he just as arrogant and unrestrained?
So there's nothing to argue about; his goal is to get the medicine!
After seeing these people off, the rest of the Mo family went about their business.
There's a lot of work to do: drying, threshing, and storing the grain. All of this is done manually. There's also work in the fields: harvesting what needs to be harvested and watering what needs to be watered!
Sigh! There's just endless farm work to do!
In ancient times, productivity was relatively low, and everything was done manually. Naturally, it was not feasible to be free from these constraints and live a carefree life.
A good harvest is great; it's tiring but joyful!
Farmers are least afraid of harvesting. If they have something to harvest, it means their hard work has paid off and they have a meal to eat. They won't go hungry!
Su Nanxi deliberately didn't go with them. If she had gone, Xiao Wu wouldn't have had the opportunity to showcase his talents. He should be given more opportunities to practice!
Before they had been working in the field for long, someone came to report that Tao had picked up a lot of ears of grain in the Mo family's field!
That sounds a bit like jealousy, like they're envious of Dow Chemical?
Su Nanxi happened to be nearby, and the man, probably following the principle of proximity, started talking to her.
Su Nanxi listened, but didn't stop what she was doing. She glanced at the person who came in, then lowered her head and continued working.
After the person finished speaking, she replied casually, "Oh, I see!"
The man paused, then said, "That's it? That's all?"
The ears of grain in his own field were all picked clean, and he remained so calm. Is this person out of his mind?
Rumors are circulating in the village that a severe drought has struck, and there may be no harvest in the future, making this grain especially precious!
Even fallen ears of grain are food. Little by little, they can add up to a considerable amount, and they might even become life-saving food in a critical moment!
How can you say it so easily, like it's as insignificant as weeds?
Knowing that the ears of grain in the Mo family's field could be picked, she brought more than a dozen people from her family to pick them. She couldn't let them all benefit others!
Su Nanxi glanced at the newcomer and immediately knew what she was thinking. She sneered inwardly, but her expression remained largely unchanged. "I told her to pick them up! She's the only one allowed to pick them up, and whatever she picks up is hers. Is there a problem?"
The man choked. Since it was done with permission, then there was no problem!
"I don't know! Sigh! I only came to tell you because I was worried! Since you asked her to pick it up, then there must be no problem!"
"That's good! I'm busy now, so I won't talk to you any longer. Make yourself at home!"
The man chuckled, looked embarrassed, said "Sorry" and left.
After turning around, the smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by an angry expression.
He was furious but dared not vent his anger on Su Nanxi, so he had to hold it in and find someone else to take it out on later!
Su Nanxi glanced at the man's back with a cool expression and said nothing. She knew that there would definitely be people who couldn't stand to see the Tao family doing well!
Those who spread rumors and gossip are themselves rumor-mongers!
That woman was a gossipy village woman who always watched other people's actions and would imagine all sorts of scenarios from the slightest disturbance!
She dislikes people like that, so she never gets close to them!
But that's just how these people are. If you don't get close, they'll get close anyway. They'll have to say something to feel better!
Just don't worry about it!
I thought the matter was over, but before long, another person came from another direction and asked about Old Lady Mo.
Same question, similar tone!
Tsk! Why are you so against Tao picking up a few ears of grain?
It's really upsetting when others can pick it up but you can't.
Why not pick them up while we can? Let's pick them all up together!
What did I hear? She even asked the Mo family to allow her to pick grains from two plots of land?
Su Nanxi looked up and saw clearly that it really was Aunt Zhou!
Aunt Zhou also wants a piece of the pie?
As far as Su Nanxi knew, this Aunt Zhou's family owned quite a lot of land. If they cultivated it well, they should be able to make a decent living. With a little effort, they wouldn't have any problem eating!
“There are about ten of us in my family at home. The harvest is going away very quickly. We don’t grow any other crops, and with that meager harvest, it’s going to be tough! If we can harvest a little more, so be it! Anyway, it’s all your Mo family’s stuff that you don’t want, so it doesn’t matter who picks it up! Let us pick it up for you, don’t be shy!”
Aunt Zhou had a look on her face that suggested she was doing it for someone else's good, and she felt that what she said made perfect sense!
Ha! You're not going to thank her, are you?!
They take advantage of others with such self-righteousness!
"Who told you that the Mo family doesn't want the tassels? Who said just anyone can pick them up?"
