What a sharp-tongued girl!

"Xiaoxi girl, you are making things difficult for us. Your uncle has spent all the money we have at home to hire Dr. Zhang! You are asking for money right away, but we are powerless."

Zhou Xiaoxi immediately showed a look of surprise, his eyes wide open, and said innocently:

"Eh? That's not right. Mr. Zhang clearly told us that he came here voluntarily and didn't charge us a penny. Did you misunderstand me? Oh, look at me, what nonsense are you talking about! Aunt, don't be angry. Second uncle must have had some compelling reasons not to tell you the truth!"

Humph, it’s just a white lotus, I can do it too!

Zhou Xiaoxi felt a little proud in her heart.

In fact, she hasn't had time to confirm this with Dr. Zhang, but it's basically true.

Even if Doctor Zhang accepted the money, it wouldn’t matter. He had already left the county town, and the Zhou family would have no way to verify the facts even if they went to the clinic.

After this incident, if the eldest uncle and the second uncle could turn against each other, it would be a good thing for their family.

But Second Uncle is too shrewd and cunning, so don't hold too much hope.

When Zhou Fu's wife thought that the four taels of silver that she was forced to pay by her father-in-law was most likely hidden by the second son, she wished she could grow wings and fly back home immediately.

She no longer had the energy to talk nonsense with the little girl. Of course, getting the money back was the most important thing!

She originally intended to use the money to subsidize her younger brother, but her husband was too timid and handed over the money after being threatened by his father-in-law.

I had thought of finding a way to get the money back from Li in the future, but who would have thought that it was taken away by her sly brother-in-law!

Everyone was listening to the conversation between the two with their ears perked up. I believe that within half a day, everyone in Huaihua Village will know that the second son of the Zhou family was trying to covet his eldest brother's money, right?

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoxi smiled with satisfaction.

People who are good are bullied by others, and horses who are good are ridden by others.

In order to survive in this cruel place, Zhou Xiaoxi can only disguise herself as a shrew.

There was no more excitement to watch, and the idea of ​​digging ginseng and looking for Ganoderma lucidum seemed to be completely unfounded from what Zhou Xiaoxi said.

Many people no longer wanted to stay and went down the mountain one after another, but there were still many people who stayed.

Since Zhou Xiaoxi said that her sisters were picking herbs, then if they picked them and took them home to dry them, wouldn’t they be medicinal materials? They could sell them to the clinic and make money.

They are not stupid. What's the point of picking wild vegetables? They won't starve to death if they eat one more or one less meal. Making money is the serious thing!

So, a group of people kept looking in the direction of the two sisters and followed them closely.

This mountain is not theirs, they can go wherever they want.

Seeing what the sister picked, he followed her and plucked them in the same way. He didn't feel bad even if the leaves were ripped to pieces, because they weren't grown at home anyway.

Especially the mugwort, which everyone knew. Some young boys would tear it off and throw it into their backpacks while playing and laughing, trampling the whole bunch of mugwort into pieces.

Zhou Xiaonan was so angry that tears were streaming down her face. Those were herbal herbs that saved her father's life, and they were wasted by these people!

She was so angry that she went up to argue with the person, which caused everyone to laugh.

"Zhou Xiaonan, you are really nosy. This mountain is not yours. We can do whatever we want to you. If you don't agree, come and hit me!"

After saying that, he hooked his finger provocatively.

For this kind of person, the more you argue with him, the more aggressive he will become.

As expected, a rare patch of mugwort that was growing well was ruined beyond recognition.

If you want to avoid the pungent smell of garbage, the best way is to stay away from it before you lose the ability to do so. Let the garbage continue to affect each other, making it stink worse, until it rots, weathers, and finally returns to dust.

Zhou Xiaoxi silently swore in her heart that when she had some time to breathe, she would try her best to make money and pull her whole family out of this garbage dump and get away from it.

"Xiao Nan, remember what I said, just treat it as a dog barking, they don't deserve to make you angry. Let's hurry up and collect herbs."

Zhou Xiaonan wiped her tears with her sleeves and nodded obediently.

"Sister, I'm too stupid. I always lose my temper."

"Next time you encounter something similar, just keep saying in your heart, 'I don't want to listen, it's just a turtle chanting sutras.' Say it a few times, and you will feel relieved."

Zhou Xiaonan burst into laughter, and after the two sisters finished whispering to each other, they quickened their movements.

A lot of time has been wasted, and the two no longer pay attention to the people around them.

The weather in late summer was very hot, and the clothes they wore were cumbersome and not very breathable, so the two girls soon became sweaty.

The remaining villagers could no longer bear the pressure and went down the mountain one after another.

At this moment, Zhou Xiaoxi missed her previous life very much. At this time, she should have been wearing cool clothes, staying in a comfortable air-conditioned room, typing on the keyboard and making phone calls.

But now I am wearing shabby coarse clothes and picking herbs under the scorching sun. I really want to cry but I have no tears!

Turning around and looking at his sister who was working hard, he felt distressed.

The little girl had an extraordinary ability to identify medicinal herbs. Her fingers flew across the ground, and she quickly picked up a handful of them and stuffed them neatly into the backpack.

If such a good child were born in the 21st century, he would have such a wonderful life.

I really hope that one day I will be able to let this girl shine to her full potential.

Just wait and see, just in case it comes true.

Looking around again, I saw a mess and an indescribable desolation.

In fact, it is difficult to find medicinal herbs that have slightly harsh growing conditions.

In a few days, they might have to go a little deeper into the mountains.

However, she must make adequate preparations before going, and she will think about it carefully after she returns home.

In her previous life, she didn't learn many wilderness survival skills, and she had very few opportunities to have outdoor picnics.

……

It was almost dark when I got home again. But I finally heard some good news.

For safety reasons, Li no longer opened the door during the day.

There was only her and Zhou Jun, who could not move, at home. If someone with bad intentions broke in, no one would come to help even if she ran out to call for help.

The villagers of Huaihua Village have disappointed her terribly.

Hearing her little daughter's cry, Li ran out happily and opened the door. Before her daughter could speak, she hurriedly shared with them:

"Children, your father called me today!"

This story begins at noon.

Li was angry last night, and she had to get up from time to time to look after Zhou Jun, so she hardly slept and felt a little anxious and dizzy during the day.

It was just because she didn’t sleep well, so she would just take some time to catch up on it in the afternoon, so she didn’t care much about it.

At noon, she went to the kitchen to cook as usual. Perhaps the weather was too hot and she had a little heatstroke. When Li was putting the food on the table, her eyes went dark and she almost fainted.
