Zhao Xiaoxing was a straightforward person. When she heard that Luo Qiao wanted to borrow food, she got angry: "Luo Qiao, what are you thinking? We don't even have enough to eat. How can we lend it to you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Xiaocao quickly pulled her third sister, secretly cursing Zhao Xiaoxing in her heart for being such a fool.

Luo Qiao burst into laughter: "I told you, there's no way your Zhao family would care whether I would starve to death. You haven't even mastered the skill of lying yet." After saying that, she walked away with a smile.

Zhao Xiaoxing said with a look of shame and anger: "You are just a wild child that no one wants."

Luo Qiao said loudly: "Whether it is a wild child or not, your mother knows best. You'd better go back and ask her what she did fifteen years ago?"

Luo Qiao did not deliberately lower her voice when she said this. It was really that the Zhao family was too annoying. They came to her house every few days, which was very annoying.

Zhao Xiaocao pulled her third sister Zhao Xiaoxing and stopped her from talking. She was obviously no match for Luo Qiao and became a laughing stock to the villagers.

She finally realized that Luo Qiao had said that on purpose just now. Her purpose was to let the villagers know that the Zhao family had been looking for her privately these days and wanted her to go back with them. If something really happened to her, wouldn't it mean that the Zhao family was plotting against an orphan girl?

The Zhao sisters did not receive much education. Except for Zhao Xiaocao who graduated from elementary school, the other sisters only attended elementary school for one or two years. Zhao Xiaocao originally wanted to go to junior high school, but Gao Suhua disagreed and she had to give up.

The eldest daughter of the Zhao family, Zhao Xiaotao, is 21 years old this year. Because the bride price was high and she had high standards, she only found a husband this year and is going to get married next month.

I heard from the villagers that Gao Suhua is looking for a husband for her second son Zhao Xiaomei these days, but the negotiations with the previous family over the gift price broke down, so rumors spread everywhere at the slightest sign of trouble in the village.

Zhao Xiaoxing and Zhao Xiaomei are twins, but when Zhao Xiaoxing was young, she was engaged to Zhang Changping from the neighboring village of Zhangjiapu. It is said that Zhao Pulin saved Zhang Changping's grandfather, so the two families arranged this marriage when they were young.

She had accepted such a high bride price before because of the only male in the family, Zhao Guibao. Now Zhao Guibao had moved to the city with his biological parents, but Gao Suhua still broke up with that family over the bride price, and everyone laughed at her behind her back.

Luo Qiao thought to herself that her own daughter was still used to receive betrothal gifts, not to mention that she was an outsider. If her family had no plans, they would not have been so eager to get her back to the Zhao family. She also did not want the villagers to know, so she chose to persuade her after work when there was no one around.

Lu Yichen, who was following behind Luo Qiao, thought to himself that he was not too stupid. He heard the conversation between the Zhao sisters that day and had no good feelings towards the Zhao family.

When Luo Qiao arrived at the commune, she first familiarized herself with the terrain, then entered the only Chinese medicine store in the commune and asked, "Excuse me, do you sell medicinal herbs here?"

A young man in the store replied: "Has it been prepared?"

Luo Qiao said: "No, I just came here today to ask if you would accept it."

The young man asked curiously, "What are they?"
