Taking advantage of the heavy rain, Ji Laosan secretly took a trip to the mountains.

He has never been worried about the wild oak business. Although there are fewer and fewer people buying it in the city, if someone buys it, it will be an income.

And this is still a huge investment.

Unfortunately, when he went to the mountains, he found that due to the heavy rain in the past two days, many wild oak trees had been knocked down.

Many of them rotted due to heavy rain and high temperature. Even if they came to pick again later, they would not be able to pick a few good ones.

After returning home, he told Mrs. Ji about this matter, and Mrs. Ji sneered:

"That's a good thing! At least no one can take advantage of it."

Knowing that the wild coriander trees were rotten by the rain, the Ji family felt better and no longer thought about picking dates, but concentrated on cultivating the fields.

During this period, Ji Laosan went to Lin'an County and bought a lot of seeds, ready to plant them on the reclaimed land.

The people of the Ma family are always paying attention to the situation here.

The people in their family are not diligent in planting crops or working hard, but they are extremely diligent when they want to pay attention to which families have something.

For several days, I secretly watched around the Ji family, but found that there was no movement at all except for reclamation.

No matter how ambitious they were, they were discouraged because they were lazy.

After realizing that the Ma family was missing, the Ji family became even more relaxed. They were also willing to take the cattle out, and the reclamation speed became faster and faster, making people feel more relaxed.

In just five or six days, all the seeds were planted.

Because it rained, everyone thought that the weather would get warmer, and it would be much easier to plant crops by then.

So everyone is busy cultivating their own land at this time and has no time to wander around the village.

Because there was a cow at home, Ye Qiuyun did not go to the fields, but took his daughter and children to hunt cow grass.

Their house is next to the river, where grass grows the most.

On this day, Ye Qiuyun was taking his children to hunt cattle, but suddenly he noticed that a family seemed to be coming from the other side of the river.

They come here to cut grass almost every day, but they never find anyone around. But today, they suddenly saw someone washing clothes opposite, who seemed to be a girl.

The river was not wide to begin with, and Ji Miaomiao was surprised to find that the woman washing clothes seemed to be the woman they saw outside the city gate begging the officers and soldiers to let them go when they fled to Lin'an City that day.

At that time, she said that her father was dying of illness and she didn't know how he was doing now.

Ji Miaomiao looked at her wearing plain white clothes and had some guesses in her heart.

Ye Qiuyun's attention was not on the city gate at that time, and she didn't see it clearly, so she didn't know that they had met each other. She was just surprised that someone came to the end of the village.

At this time, the woman on the other side of the river failed to hold on to the clothes she was washing, and was carried to the other side by the water.

In desperation, she tried to catch it, but almost fell into the water.

Ye Qiuyun was startled and quickly stopped her behavior. Then he walked to the river, carefully squatted down, and helped her pull up her clothes.

The woman was stunned, raised her eyes and said gratefully:

"Thank you sister for your help."

Only then did Ye Qiuyun realize that the woman opposite him was exceptionally pretty.

She smiled and said, "You're welcome, it's just a matter of effort. You really scared me just now. What should I do if I fall into the water?"

The woman pursed her lips and seemed a little apologetic.

Ye Qiuyun grabbed the clothes in her hand, but couldn't hand them over. She looked around and found that there was an arch bridge not far ahead that could pass through, and she couldn't help but suggest:

"It's hard to hand over these clothes here. How about I go up to the arch bridge and hand them to my sister?"

The woman looked grateful, "It's really troublesome sister."

Ye Qiuyun naturally said no.

The two of them walked towards the arch bridge at the same time. After a while, they reached the arch bridge and Ye Qiuyun handed the clothes to the woman.

The woman's body was full of blessings and she bowed before her. Ye Qiuyun couldn't bear such a big gift and immediately wanted to help her up.

But she seemed to be feeling unwell, and with the strength of Ye Qiuyun's support, she fainted.

Ye Qiuyun was startled, but he couldn't support her up. He could only try to prevent her from hitting the ground, and worry about whether she would hit the daughter in his arms.

She could only shout loudly to the children who were cutting grass on the shore. Ji Shiliang heard his mother's voice and rushed to the arch bridge.

"Mom, who is this?"

Ji Shiliang tilted his head, very curious about the person his mother was supporting.

This aunt is quite good-looking, but I don't know her and have never seen her before.

"Serayo, go and call your father over."

Now was not the time to explain. Ji Shiliang nodded heavily and ran home quickly. Not long after, he brought Ji Laosan over.

"Qiuyun, what is this?"

Ji Liangqing was confused when he arrived.

Ye Qiuyun couldn't explain to him here, so he had to say,

"It's a long story. I'll tell you later. Now that she has fainted, let's take her to our house first."

Ji Liangqing could only nod and carry the woman back home.

The whole family was a little surprised when they saw the third child coming back with a woman on his back. Fortunately, Ye Qiuyun explained it and the whole family understood the whole story.

Mrs. Ji still disagreed a little and said,

"You should be more careful about people with unknown origins in the future. What should you do if a bad person comes back?"

Ye Qiuyun lowered his head and said so in shame, but now that everyone has memorized it, it is useless to say this.

Listening to the woman talking about water, Ye Qiuyun helped her drink water again.

There was no doctor here, and they didn't know why the woman fainted. Fortunately, she woke up a little later.

Seeing this strange place, the woman felt a little panicked. Fortunately, Ye Qiuyun, who was standing guard next to her, told her that he had brought her to their home. The woman was even more grateful at the moment.

This was the first time since she fled the country that she had been treated with such kindness, and she burst into tears.

Perhaps there were too many things in her mind, but when she saw Ye Qiuyun's kind eyes, she uncontrollably told a lot about her situation.

It turns out that this woman's name is Su Xiu'er, the daughter of a scholar, and her father is a famous private school teacher in the town.

However, when the famine years came, they had to sell their belongings and go out to escape the famine. However, they contracted diseases on the way and were injured in the heart because they competed with others for food.

Her father only had one daughter, and no brothers to help her. She only learned how to study and had no idea how to make a living.

She stumbled here, but her father became seriously ill. After taking care of her father away, she was exhausted and found an abandoned house at the end of the village. Then she fainted while doing laundry, and met Ye Qiuyun.

Hearing this, Ye Qiuyun was filled with emotions, but Ji Miaomiao's eyes lit up.

A scholar's daughter can read? Doesn't that mean she can read?
