Although Dai Hongmei didn't know why, her grandfather controlled all the money and was their breadwinner, so naturally he asked her to do whatever she wanted and she didn't dare to disobey him in any way.

"If my granddaughter-in-law knows, she will let that bitch have fun with Mingyue. As for Mu Shi..."

"Give her a bowl of porridge to keep her alive." Grandfather Lu took out a tael of silver from his purse and threw it to Dai Hongmei.

The silver formed a perfect arc in the air and landed steadily in Dai Hongmei's hands. Lu's grandfather nodded with satisfaction.

He loved giving money, as if he was giving alms to a beggar, which gave him great satisfaction.

Dai Hongmei held the silver and retreated gratefully, preparing to share the bowl of porridge with her husband and son in the evening.

Pan Di is a worthless little girl. She will go to that remote place in Qiongzhou. She may not even get a dowry when she gets married in the future. Why should we spend money on such a worthless and useless girl?

Not worth it!

Dai Hongmei got the money and sat down to rest. It was too hot that day. It would have been fine if she had been under the eaves, but it was so hot outside that she had to wipe the sweat off her face constantly, and her sleeves were all black.

Gurgle, Dai Hongmei covered her stomach and curled up. She was lucky as she could eat until she was 60% to 70% full at every meal, but she walked all day and had already used up all the food.

She couldn't help but think of the egg-filled pancakes Jiang Qiu made today.

The crispy and crunchy aroma made her drool and she was almost going crazy with greed.

Damn Jiang Qiu!

He doesn't care about family ties at all. He eats all the delicious food and doesn't know how to share at all!

Dai Hongmei was cursing when she saw Jiang Qiu talking to the officer again.

Vixen!

She must have gone to seduce the officer.

I don't know what she is going to say.

Dai Hongmei thought about it and decided to take a closer look to prevent Jiang Qiu from gossiping about their family to the officers!

But Luo Yunchun was surrounded by a circle of officials, and Dai Hongmei could not hear what was said at all.

After a while, Dai Hongmei saw a group of officials following Jiang Qiu up the mountain, holding baskets or brown paper bags to carry items.

This made Dai Hongmei scratch her head out of curiosity.

Not only Dai Hongmei was curious, but others were also curious.

In fact, Jiang Qiu said to Luo Yunchun: "I found some edible wild vegetables, and they are very quick to pick. Why don't you ask a few officials to go up the mountain with me to pick some, so that we can have an extra dish tonight. Don't worry, I can taste it in advance, and this dish is definitely not poisonous."

Luo Yunchun did not doubt that Jiang Qiu had poisoned them. If Jiang Qiu really wanted to kill them, it would be faster to ask Lu Ce to launch a sneak attack late at night.

But hearing her say that, I felt relieved.

As for picking wild vegetables, Luo Yunchun thought that they had enough staple food in stock, but there were few vegetables because they could not be stored for a long time in the hot weather.

Judging from Jiang Qiu's ability to cook evening meals, the wild vegetables she wants to pick should taste good.

Luo Yunchun wanted to give it a try, so he simply asked a few people to follow Jiang Qiu to go up the mountain to pick the fruits.

The time for picking has also been set, a quarter of an hour.

It's just right for us to set off immediately after everyone has had a good rest.

What Jiang Qiu wants to pick is 'Nepeta', which is a dish with strong regional characteristics. It is a little bit troublesome to prepare, but this does not prevent Nepeta from being delicious.

A group of exiles were picking nepeta on the mountain. Some of them had some thoughts, such as Ni Yihui.

She mustered up the courage to ask Jiang Qiu: "Is this an edible wild vegetable? Can I pick it?"

"You can pick them, but if you want to make a dish out of nepeta, you'll need flour, oil, and salt, which will also cost some money. But you can pick them and sell them to me. If you help me pick a basket, I can give you one or two taels of silver."

Time is tight, it would be better to have someone to help pick the fruits.

She is now collecting the nepeta from Ni Yihui, and will be able to sell it after it is cooked.

Ni Yihui was overjoyed: "Okay!"

One basket for one tael of silver was really worth it for her.

After a group of people on the mountain picked for a quarter of an hour, they each had a basket of nepeta.

Jiang Qiu received a basket of nepeta from Ni Yihui.

As for the officials' nepeta, Jiang Qiu asked them to put the nepeta away first, and she would cook it into a dish after they arrived at the destination.

The officers had no objections because the egg-filled pancakes this morning were so delicious.

It was simply the best meal they had ever had since they started working.

It’s even better than the food in some restaurants in Beijing.

They feel very happy to be able to eat such delicious food while working.

So they have no resistance to wild vegetables.

Luo Yunchun directed everyone to hurry on their way.

They need to find an area where they can lie down on the ground and sleep.

You can't just lie on the official road.

If a warhorse with a speed of 800 miles per hour suddenly rushed over, it would be able to trample them to death.

The group set off again.

Jiang Qiu held Yaoer for a while, and his arms suddenly became numb: "My hands are so sore, you hold Yaoer for a while."

She has already put the money in the backpack, so now it is okay for others to carry Yaoer.

Lu Ce brought his nephew over, holding Yaoer in one hand and leaning on a crutch with the other.

Lu Guangzong was delighted by what he saw.

How those people in the capital used to belittle him and praise Lu Ce.

Now that Lu Ce is in such a mess, he still has to go with a woman to please the officials. Tsk tsk, this really brings shame to the General's Mansion.

From childhood to the present, the mainland policy seems like an unreachable mountain.

He had never won in anyone's mouth. Even his grandparents, who loved him the most, sighed many times, wondering why his academic performance was so bad. Lu Guangzong had long hated Lu Ce.

Then why didn't Lu Ce die when he was in such a state? It would be better if Lu Ce died.

In the future, people will forget about Lu Ce's existence, and grandparents will know clearly who is the smartest and most capable grandson! !

But it's okay now. He lives a much better life than the once majestic major general in the General's Mansion.

Thinking of this, Lu Guangzong couldn't help feeling proud.

Just as he was grinning foolishly, Lu Pandi fainted unexpectedly.

Lu Guangzong didn't care about his daughter. She was of no use to him and her death would save food.

None of the family moved.

But when Lu Mingyue saw it, her toes moved around like they were on a hot wheel. Finally, she couldn't help but stepped forward to help Lu Pandi up, and shouted to Lu Guangzong and Dai Hongmei: "Didn't you just buy a bowl of water? There's still some left. Hurry up and give her some water. She'll be fine after she drinks it."

Lu Guangzong was unmoved: "If you are really kind, just feed her with your water."

Dai Hongmei also thought of her grandfather's instructions and echoed, "That's right."
