Wang Xiaoxia knew from the memory of the original owner that her mother-in-law was used to being diligent and thrifty. It was okay in the past two years. Since Sun Jiuzhou's accident, the life of her mother-in-law's family has become worse day by day. In addition, this year's harvest is not good, so her mother-in-law is even more frugal.

"Mom, I know how to live. You guys eat first. After eating, I have something else to discuss with my mother. Maybe we can solve the problem of making money." She didn't want to waste time with her mother-in-law on this issue, let alone the situation that had just been eased.

The relationship has become deadlocked, and she will gradually become tired of making money just by relying on a few children.

Mrs. Wang was a little surprised when she heard that her eldest daughter-in-law was willing to tell her how to make money.

"Grandma, let's eat. You guys have been tired all morning." The second son came in behind him. He saw his grandma getting angry and worried and then quarreled with his stepmother again. Seeing her dazed, she hurriedly stepped forward to help change the subject.

Wang Xiaoxia brought the children's food to the room and asked the fourth child to prepare the meat porridge for the eldest brother. The fourth child was more careful in doing things, so the fourth child was doing all these things recently.

The children have also been hungry for a long time. Now the place where they eat has been changed to the room where the eldest lives. It is still the same as before. The pot is placed on the basin so that they can eat hot rice and vegetables.

After eating a few mouthfuls of food, the second child asked with concern about the condition of Tutu's face: "Mom, is Tutu's face really hopeless?"

"The wound is a bit deep, and it cannot be restored to its original state for the time being." Wang Xiaoxia didn't want other children to know too much, so she just found an excuse to explain it away.

Seeing that everyone cared about him, Tutu felt warm in his heart. He smiled slightly and looked at everyone and said, "I am a boy, there is nothing to worry about."

"That's right, he is a boy, not a girl. Don't worry. Hurry up and eat. After eating, you have to go to work and don't think about being lazy. In the afternoon, the second and third children will go out with me. The others will help you grandpa at home.

Let grandma do some work." Wang Xiaoxia thought about going back to cut some thorns in the afternoon, and the other children would help at home because they were too young. As for Xiaotuanzi, he should go out as little as possible until the scar on his face heals.

"Mom, let me go too. I just hurt my face and can work." Tutu knew that her mother might go to cut the thorns and wanted to help.

Wang Xiaoxia shook her head: "No, from now on you and the third child will be at home. If you have nothing to do, teach the third child to write. I have already bought the pen and ink. Wait until the wounds on your face are scarred before you go out with everyone."

Tutu wanted to say it was okay, but she immediately shut her mouth when her mother looked at her.

After lunch, Wang Xiaoxia told everyone that they would talk about making money in the evening. Wang and the others continued to build a wooden house in the back, because firewood and sundries had to be piled inside, so Wang deliberately asked them to build a bigger house.

Wang Xiaoxia carried a backpack and took the second and third children out of the house.

When she arrived at Dasun Mountain, she discovered that there were a lot of people here, not just children, but also many adults. There were both men and women, and those women avoided her when they saw her. Those children who liked to find trouble before saw her.

Come on, I don’t dare to see what the second and third sons carry in their baskets.

"Hey, isn't this the lazy daughter-in-law of the Jiuzhou family? She actually came to work today. She usually takes care of these children. The sun is rising in the west today."

"No, look at how skinny those children are?"

"It's strange to say that those children didn't hate this ugly creature before, so why are they still going out with her now?"

There was a lot of gossip in her ears, and Wang Xiaoxia didn't bother to pay attention to these people at all. Seeing that the second and third children were about to say a few words, she pulled them up the mountain.

"Why are you wasting your time with these people? Isn't it delicious to buy sweets after making money?" Wang Xiaoxia not only wants to cut the thorns, but also plans to dig some herbs back. Tomorrow, she will take the medicines to the town and sell them to continue to stock up on rice.

Stock up on food.

The second and third children obediently said nothing after hearing this, and they followed the stepmother up the mountain.

The map in Wang Xiaoxia's mind showed that there was a small piece of hemostatic medicinal materials a little further up the mountain. They only had to dig up those and then cut and stab them back.

The second child and the third child were both used to climbing mountain roads, and they followed quite quickly. There are also green forests on the mountains here, and those herbs are in the green forests.

When they arrived at Linzikou, Wang Xiaoxia asked them to wait outside. She went in and walked around to make sure there were no ferocious beasts before calling the two children in.

However, as soon as they entered the forest, several people followed them. There were adults and children, and a few children followed them closely.

"Mom, they are following us." The third child tugged on the corner of my mother's clothes worriedly.

"It's okay, just follow me and dig with me." Wang Xiaoxia glanced at those people. One of the women was the one who pointed at her and scolded her at the foot of the mountain that day.

In this case, she naturally couldn't give these people any advantage. She suddenly changed her mind and took them to cut the thorns without digging the herbs for the time being.

There were many thorny vines in the forest, and she planned to dig them back by the roots, which would slow down her movement.

"Be careful. It doesn't matter if you dig slower. Don't hurt your hands or damage the roots." She told the second and third children and started digging.

The second and third children didn't ask any questions, and followed the digging carefully.

Those who followed saw them digging thorn vines and looked at them in confusion for a while. A woman raised her hand and slapped a child on the face, and then cursed in a low voice: "Don't follow them in the future."

What are you going to do with all the useless stuff in the back?"

The person who said this was Cui Lanhua, the woman who scolded Wang Xiaoxia last time. The one who was scolded was her eldest son Sun Shulin. This child is about the same size as the third child. He usually bullies several children in the Jiuzhou family.

.

"Mom, they didn't dig these before." Sun Shulin looked aggrieved and touched his sore face.

"You still said, you still said, let's go dig wild vegetables!" Cui Lanhua grabbed Sun Shulin's ear and walked aside.

It was not easy to find a green forest, and there would definitely be a lot of wild vegetables in it. If they were lucky, they might be able to dig some wild mushrooms. It would be even better if they could dig ginseng, so since they came in, they didn't plan to go out so quickly.

Wang Xiaoxia heard their conversation and saw that they had no intention of leaving. She frowned and ordered the second and third sons to continue digging. She walked around in the forest. Anyway, she couldn't give these people cheap things.

"Mom, you should be more careful." After the second child warned, he lowered his head and continued to dig out the thorn roots.

Wang Xiaoxia nodded and followed the map with her backpack on her back for a while. Suddenly she saw ginseng flowers.

While those people were not following, she quickly dug out a few ginseng roots of ordinary age. These ginsengs could be used to make soup for the children in the future. Anyway, she had already told Uncle Santun about buying a dog, and she would wait until the yard was repaired.

Even if you have a dog, you won't be afraid of the chicken being stolen.

When she stood up after digging the ginseng, she felt someone following her. She didn't pay much attention and continued walking forward. She saw some wild vegetables dug up and thrown into the basket. When she stood up, she saw clearly that the person following her was Cui Lanhua.

.

In this case, she didn't plan to dig anymore, and deliberately walked deeper into the forest with her backpack on her back, intending to get rid of the man.

Cui Lanhua just followed. Just now, her eldest son said that what her children dug were not wild vegetables at all, and they didn’t know what they were. They had been digging for several days. She didn’t believe what her eldest son said, but her younger son didn’t know what they were.

She had no choice but to believe it. So, she followed up secretly to see what good stuff this ugly guy was digging up.

After walking for a while, Wang Xiaoxia deliberately speeded up her pace. Cui Lanhua couldn't keep up. She accidentally stepped on something and tripped to the ground. However, when she was about to get up, she was surprised to find something moving next to her.
