We have separated, what does it have to do with me if my husband's family eats bran?

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "It's settled then!"

Everyone nodded, their eyes full of longing, and they couldn't wait to go up the mountain. They always felt that the wolfberries on the mountain were waving to them.

Mrs. Wu did not forget to remind them: "Don't tell anyone about this. There are too many people in our village who can't stand seeing others do well. If they get jealous, they might cause trouble."

The villagers don't interact much with the Wu family. They even accuse them of killing animals. They don't bother to care about people who treat them badly. They just want to make a fortune in silence.

My aunt said, "Don't worry, we are not stupid, we will definitely not tell anyone!"

They often go to the town to sell game, and it is normal for them to go back and forth, so no one thinks much of it.

Even if they had money, they could only eat the good food secretly. They were so far away from the village that the smell of meat could not reach them.

If someone really asks them, they will say that they earned the money from hunting, and if they have the ability, they can go too!

Wu nodded: "That's good, now that we have finished talking about things, let's go home first."

As she said this, she stood up. The road was long and difficult to walk. After sending them back to Houshui Village, her daughter would always be worried when it got dark.

Uncle Wu and his aunt knew what was going on, so they didn't try to persuade him to stay. Instead, they took all the wild rabbits and pheasants tied up nearby and said, "Don't forget these. Take them back and eat them. The meat is chewy and delicious!"

They said so, but they had only eaten it twice. All the prey they hunted in a year was sold. They could barely afford to eat water, so how could they bear to eat meat?

"Thank you, uncles and aunts. We'll take it then!"

The aunts kept stuffing the herbs into Cheng Yue and Chen An's hands. It was hard to refuse their kindness, so they had to accept them. At least they could collect herbs soon, and their uncle's family would surely get better.

When the time comes, she will get them to join in the farming business, and the hard times will eventually pass.

"You silly child, you are so polite! We should thank you! It's just a few pheasants and rabbits. When your uncle and aunt make money, they will buy you something more delicious!"

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Okay! Then I'll wait!"

The whole family laughed. If they had said this before, they would have thought it was empty talk. But it is different now, it can definitely be achieved!

As the crowd walked out, talking and laughing, Uncle Wu picked up the cart swiftly and said, "Let's go! I'll tie the cart up for you!"

Cheng Yue shook her head and laughed. Third Uncle had such great strength that he didn't know where to put it, so he carried the cart back and forth.

After Cheng Yue and her group had gone far away, the uncles and aunts of the Wu family returned home. As soon as they entered the yard, the eldest aunt exclaimed, "Oh, they forgot to pack back the things they sent!"

Uncle Wu also groaned and said, "My younger sister said this was Yue girl's gift to us, so I brought it back. But I was so busy listening to the story of picking herbs that I forgot about it!"

Uncle Wu said, "I was the one who brought the cloth back. I forgot about it..."

The second aunt scolded: "Look at your brain!"

The voices of my third uncle and aunt came from the other side, "My goodness, this is fine noodles. How can there be such white fine noodles!"

"This bag is made of fine rice, translucent and bright. How much silver does it cost?"

The family members were more and more frightened as they looked at it. "Let's keep it well. Next time we buy herbs, we'll send them back to Yue Yatou. Didn't she say that the braised food shop is in the county town? We can send them there!"

Yue girl thought that being uncle and aunt is rare enough for us, and we can’t take advantage of the child anymore!”

As the elders, they are supposed to take care of the children, how can it be the other way around?

It’s their fault that they had nothing before, but now they can finally give something!

"Well, we have to go back! Let's hang the things up to prevent them from being destroyed by rats."

As they spoke, the three brothers immediately found ropes and hung all the cloth, rice and noodles high up.

Their house was bare but rats had been visiting it. Now they suddenly had refined rice and flour. The rats had a sharper nose than them and they must have been eyeing it for a long time.

Uncle Wu pointed at the last piece of meat and said, "We can't keep this piece of meat. It will go bad..."

The family looked at each other, and finally Uncle Wu made the final decision, "Let's cook it and eat it tonight! After all, it's a gift from my little sister and the others, it would be a shame to let it go bad."

Everyone swallowed their saliva at the same time. They really wanted meat. They hadn’t eaten meat for almost half a year...

"Hang up the meat as well. Let's go up the mountain first and cook it when we come back in the evening!"

Don't be in a hurry to eat meat, but be in a hurry to make money!

The whole family carried baskets on their backs and hurried up the mountain. They had never been so excited in their lives!

The three uncles of the Wu family were used to hunting, so they were quick and heavy-handed. But now they were very careful when picking wolfberries, for fear of crushing them by mistake.

Not only that, they also padded the basket with thick grass just in case.

My niece said that the ripe fruit is soft and needs to be handled carefully, otherwise it will not be able to sell for money.

The three aunts laughed for a long time at the gentle way they handled it.

When the child was just born, they were never so careful when holding the child, but in the end, he was subdued by the tiny wolfberry.

No, it's bowing to money!

……

On the other side, Wu was thinking more and more that something was wrong as she walked along the road. She nudged Cheng's father's arm and said, "Why don't we go pick some herbs too!"

Collecting medicinal herbs is more profitable than selling pork. They only make three or four cents for each pound of pork. If business is good, they can make eighty cents a day. If business is bad, twenty cents a day is considered good.

It’s different with medicinal materials. It also takes time and effort, but it’s pure profit with little cost.

Father Cheng didn't react. "What? What about the pork shop?"

The old woman is always thinking of something. She must be itching to make money when she sees others making money!

Wu punched him and said, "Why don't we just sell less meat in the morning and go collect herbs in the afternoon?"

Father Cheng rubbed his arm and sighed, "This arm has been through a lot with me, either getting hit or pinched."

Cheng Yue and Chen An chuckled and started bickering again!

Wu glared at Father Cheng and said, "I don't want to argue with you!"

Then he pulled Cheng Yue aside and asked, "Daughter, do you think it's okay?"

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "It's fine if you think it's okay, no need to ask me, in fact, I'm thinking that I won't let you set up a stall.

Selling pork is hard work, and you get covered in grease, but you don’t make much money. I didn’t tell you before because I was afraid you wouldn’t want to do this.

When the shop at the dock is built, my brother and sister-in-law will be too busy to handle it, so you might as well go over and help."

She also didn't want her parents to work too hard, and wanted the old couple to stay at home and grow vegetables and feed chickens to enjoy their retirement. But she knew that they would feel uncomfortable if they didn't make money in a day, and they would definitely not stay at home.

She did have a plan in mind, but she never had a suitable opportunity to say it. She was also afraid that Wu would not be able to let go of the pork stall, after all, she had been running it for more than 20 years.

This is a good opportunity to test them. If they are unwilling to go to my brother and sister-in-law's place, I will tell them my plan.
