When Xie Chuntao found her sister-in-law appearing in front of her, she was so shocked that she almost screamed.
Turning around and seeing Eugene Gui, his face sank.
"Sister-in-law, why did you take your sister-in-law into the mountains? Does the nanny know?"
Xie Chuntao dropped the shovel he was holding to dig out medicine.
Eugene Gui is very annoyed with Xie Chuntao, who usually looks soft, but once his sister-in-law's affairs are involved, he will use his eldest sister-in-law's power to suppress her.
Eugene Gui said: "My sister-in-law is making trouble to come. What can I do? Sister-in-law, you still don't know my sister-in-law's status in our family?"
Xiao Fuyuan put her arms around Xie Chuntao's neck and called her sister-in-law, as if she were seeing a relative, and Xie Chuntao's heart melted.
A little girl like my sister-in-law usually acts like a spoiled brat, but she never does something unreasonable.
"Brother and sister, my sister-in-law is a child, and you are also a child? You brought her up such a steep mountain road like this?"
Xie Chuntao's tone was full of distrust and blame.
Seeing A Zhen on the side again, Xie Chuntao became even more angry and looked ugly.
Ah Zhen is a guest staying at home, so I brought him here too.
Eugene Gui made a mistake and avoided Xie Chuntao's eyes, saying: "I'm already here. Sister-in-law, if you say so, I'll take my sister-in-law back at worst."
Xie Chuntao was so angry that her head hurt.
He held Xiao Fuyuan on his lap and examined her feet.
Da Lang looked at the wild strawberries not far away and swallowed his saliva. His mother-in-law, Xie Chuntao, said, "Mom, my sister-in-law's feet are fine. My second sister-in-law carried her for a long way. The rest of the way is for Erlang and I." My sister-in-law is driving a sedan chair..."
It was okay that Dalang didn't speak. When he spoke, he attracted Xie Chuntao's fire.
Xie Chuntao was getting angry because of Eugene Gui's incoherent behavior. He put down the little Fuyuan, grabbed Dalang and slapped him on the buttocks a few times and yelled: "I'm going to make you, you're so big for nothing." I understand, you brought your aunt to the mountains. If anything happens, I'll see how you can be worthy of your aunt."
"Also, you instigated A Zhen to come with you. Did you trick A Zhen into coming together when you saw that A Zhen's parents wouldn't follow?"
A Zhen: "..."
Xie Chuntao was beating and scolding.
If you can't scold Eugene Gui, then you can't control your own son.
People in Shenshu Village looked at the news one after another. Eugene Gui couldn't help it. In front of so many people, Xie Chuntao, a village woman, dared to accuse Sang Huai of being a scholar.
"Sister-in-law, if you keep beating and scolding me, my sister-in-law won't come either. Why, you are only allowed to come to the mountains to hunt for treasures and sell them for money, but the rest of the Bai family are not allowed to come? What do you mean to think that I don't know that you are digging up these medicinal materials and selling them for money? You want to subsidize your parents' family, but you are hiding your secrets because you are afraid of being discovered by me."
Xie Chuntao was poked at the central issue and was speechless, not knowing how to respond.
She does have this selfish intention. She has been married to Lao Bai's family for so many years and has never given any subsidies to her parents' family. In the past two years, her family's situation has become better, so she moved around with her parents' family.
Before she went up the mountain, Madam Zhen secretly told her to collect and dig up medicinal materials, and the money from the sales would be used as her private property.
She had gone through the clear path, but she still felt wronged when Eugene Gui told her.
The village chief's wife was digging jujube seedlings next to a stone wall. Seeing that Xie Chuntao was at a disadvantage, she came out to seek justice.
"Xiu Cainiang, this is your sister-in-law. If you want to talk about Gu's mother-in-law's family, don't you go to You's tofu room every day?"
Seeing little Fu Yuan and A Zhen standing aside, the village chief's wife burst into laughter. The lucky girls of Lao Bai's family were all on the move. Maybe the people of Shenshu Village would have a great harvest this time.
"Chuntao, Xiao Yuanbao, come here as soon as you come. It's okay. If you're worried, wait a while and one of your daughters-in-law comes down the mountain to tell your grandma and your mother."
Xiao Yuan Baofu was so blessed that even if she were put to a tiger's mouth, the tiger would not dare to bite her.
The village chief's wife had such great confidence in Xiao Fuyuan.
Under the mediation of the village chief's wife, Xie Chuntao and Eugene Gui stopped making peace and shook hands.
Eugene Gui took the initiative and said, "Sister-in-law, where did you dig up so many medicinal materials? I will dig them up with you."
Xie Chuntao's expression was gentle: "You can dig it under the tree or beside the stone wall if you look carefully."
Xiao Fuyuan and Azhen knew that Dalang had suffered a terrible disaster, so they led Dalang, who was in tears, to pick strawberries.
"Sister-in-law, you can't run away." Xie Chuntao warned, he must keep his sister-in-law in his sight.
Xiao Fuyuan picked strawberries for a while, and in order to reassure his sister-in-law, he came to Xie Chuntao and watched her digging for medicinal materials.
"Sister-in-law, dig this." Xiao Fuyuan pointed at the leaves in front of her and waved to Xie Chuntao.
It was an inconspicuous grass dotted with brown flower spikes.
Xie Chuntao was digging the green onions under his feet. When he looked up and saw the inconspicuous grass, he thought about his sister-in-law's child's character.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration occurred, and I remembered the wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum that my sister-in-law found on the road. My heart was pounding, and I didn't dare to ignore my sister-in-law's request.
Xie Chuntao took the shovel and dug out the roots of the grass while carefully avoiding it.
It was a few lumps of grey-brown stuff. Xie Chuntao had never seen it before, so she didn't know what it was.
He asked his sister-in-law with his eyes. Xiao Yuanbao's cute eyes were open, as if he pointed at something and she didn't know what it was.
When the village chief's wife saw the lump of earth held by Xie Chuntao, she glanced at it and exclaimed: "My darling, Xiao Yuanbao can do it. When we first came here, Chuntao, you dug up gastrodia elata. This is a rare thing."
The village chief's wife looked envious and naturally heaped the credit on Xiao Yuanbao's head.
That's not true. Xie Chuntao has been digging for a long time but it's just ordinary herbs. If it's not brought by the little girl from Bai's hometown, who else could it be?
This kind of luck cannot be compared!
When Xie Chuntao heard that what he was carrying was Gastrodia elata, his hands shook.
She had heard that this thing was very expensive, costing at least a dozen taels of silver per pound.
One time, a doctor in Huaicheng gave Erlang a prescription for treating his legs. It contained gastrodia elata, but he gave up because it was too expensive and he couldn't afford it.
Xie Chuntao looked at Xiao Fuyuan, who was squatting on the grass and watching ants as if nothing had happened.
Xie Chuntao felt mixed emotions, whether her sister-in-law knew it or not.
Eugene Gui also has mixed tastes, and sourness accounts for most of her five tastes.
He tricked his sister-in-law into coming here and carried her for a long time, but she didn't find any precious medicinal materials.
Why did he find out when he arrived in front of Xie Chuntao.
Co-author, she made a wedding dress for Xie Chuntao.
This kind of wild Gastrodia elata is worth a pound of silver.
Eugene Gui slowly rushed to Xiao Fuyuan, waiting for his sister-in-law to find other precious medicinal materials so that she could seize the opportunity to dig them up.
Everyone dug for medicinal materials and picked mushrooms for a long time.
Starting to feel dissatisfied.
Someone suggested going deeper into the mountains.
People who happened to be descending from the mountain village came out of the deeper mountains. Those people had pheasants and rabbits tied to their waists, and their backs were full of baskets of plump wild vegetables and medicinal materials.
The wives of Shenshu Village were jealous.
"Sister-in-law He, are you not afraid of tigers?" the daughter-in-law who married from Xiashan Village to Shenshu Village stopped an acquaintance from Xiashan Village and asked.
"What are you afraid of? The tiger has long been scared away by the tiger hunting team. The tiger hunting team in our village has dispersed on the spot, and they are all picking up wild animals." The daughter-in-law of Xiashan Village, who is called Sister-in-law He, pointed to her hand. The basket inside said, "I will send these back and take a few more baskets up the mountain."
The daughter-in-law from the lower mountain village hurried down the mountain with her full basket in her arms.
The daughters-in-law in Shenshu Village were ready to make a move, and they all made an appointment to go deeper into the mountains.
"You go ahead, my sister-in-law is here, so we won't go." Faced with the invitation of his acquaintance, Xie Chuntao declined.
us?
What do you mean, it means including Eugene Gui.
Eugene Gui wanted to go and wanted to take Xiao Fuyuan with him.
