He had originally thought that if he went up the mountain with Han Yanru, he could catch a lot of good things and exchange them for money so that his family's life would be better.
But tonight, they encountered nothing, something that had never happened before.
Although he wanted to explore more, since it wasn't his decision, Han Zhengduo could only follow him back.
However, after arriving home, Han Zheng pulled his wife to sit on the bed and couldn't help but say a few more words: "Wife, what's going on with all these things at home lately?"
Listening to her husband's words, Wan Qing couldn't help but think about recent events, especially since Han Xinyi fell into the water, the number of prey they could catch had been decreasing, and today they hadn't made any money at all.
Wan Qing thought for a moment, then leaned closer to her husband and whispered, "I feel that all of this is related to Yan Ru. Think about it, ever since Xin Yi fell into the water, she has been getting less and less back."
Yesterday Qi Jinhua came to cause trouble, and then... her house was robbed. Tonight, when we went up the mountain, there was nothing there. Do you think... maybe they're punishing her because they think she's too ruthless?"
As he spoke, Wan Qing raised his hand and pointed to the sky.
Over the years, Han Yanru has brought a good life to her family.
His mother had told them countless times at home that Han Yanru was a fairy descended from heaven, and that they had to treat her well for their lives to get better and better.
Over the years, the family has indeed gotten better and better thanks to her.
Han Zheng was somewhat unwilling to believe it, and whispered a scolding to Wan Qing: "Don't mention this again, or you'll be in big trouble if your mother hears it."
Seeing that her husband was unwilling to admit it, Wan Qing stopped talking and lay down on the bed to rest.
However, she didn't sleep; instead, she closed her eyes and thought about and planned for the future.
Over the years, in order to have a better life after marrying into the family, she had to flatter and tolerate Han Yanru's temper and treat her well.
Sometimes, she even had to let Han Yanru choose the things she brought from her parents' home first; only the things Han Yanru didn't want could be given to her child.
If she gave the food to her own child first, and Han Yanru found out and complained to her mother, her and her child's food would be halved.
Over time, she learned to be smarter. When she went to her parents' home, she would bring her child with her. She would either let the child eat the good food or simply refuse it, only occasionally bringing back a little something to appease them.
But if the other party really offends the higher-ups, they will never get anything good from the mountain again, and their house will be robbed.
Apart from her second brother's family, who can support themselves by working in the fields, her family and her eldest brother's family have relied on the things Han Yanru collects to exchange for money over the years, and they rarely work in the fields.
If the Han family were to completely lose this income, they would be utterly unable to make ends meet.
Since Han Xinyi got engaged and married into the Gu family, the second son's family has been living a better and better life.
But her husband still refuses to believe it, so for the sake of her husband and children, she has no choice but to find a solution herself.
