I asked you to dig wild vegetables to pay off your debt, not go up the mountain to pick up money!

"Hey, Aning is here, come in and sit down."

Widow Song came out of the house when she heard the noise, thinking that Song An Ning came to learn how to make tofu.

Hu Zi hid behind his mother in fear, showing half of his head and secretly looking at Song An Ning.

His dirty little hands were pulling at Widow Song's pants, two big strings of snot were flowing over his lips, and his eyes were full of fear.

This woman is super scary and can kill people!

His mother has beaten him, and he is very well-behaved now. He never dares to bully other children again. Why would this woman come here?

Hu Zi was so scared that Song An Ning was too embarrassed to go into the house and could only explain why she was there.

The only money he owed to Widow Song was forty-eight copper coins. He counted this amount from a long string of copper coins and put it in Widow Song's hand.

"I do not want.

Um, um... Is Ah Yue okay? Will there be a scar on her head? I've already beaten Hu Zi, and I won't do that again."

Widow Song stuttered several times before she could speak clearly in just a few words.

She felt very sorry about that, but was too embarrassed to say it.

"It left a scar, but it's not serious. I went to town and bought some traditional ointment. I'll see how it goes after using it for a while."

Sister Guizhi, it was just a fight between kids. Hu Zi apologized and you paid for the medical expenses. The past is the past and we won’t mention it again.

Parents who love their children will plan for their future. For the sake of Huzi's future, you should discipline him more."

"Parents' beloved son..."

Widow Song repeated what Song An Ning said. She was absolutely right! If Hu Zi continued to be so arrogant and unreasonable when he grew up, bullying others, he would end up in jail.

Thinking of this, her face became a little serious, and she pulled Hu Zi behind her and kicked him hard.

Hu Zi:?

Song Anning:?

"You little bastard, if you dare to bully other kids again, I'll kick your head off! You're already grown up, and you still want to play all day. Go, peel the corn for me!"

"Wow……"

Hu Zi's two big strings of snot successfully flowed over his chin, dripping onto his chubby chest, forming crystal-clear threads.

He wanted to stay away from Song An Ning! As soon as she came, his mother beat him to death.

Work, isn't it enough to just work...

Song An Ning touched her nose awkwardly and said softly, "Sister Guizhi, please keep these forty-eight copper coins. I took the food from your family, so I should pay you back."

Widow Song became much more intimate with her because of what she had just said. She pushed the copper coin back and asked tentatively:

"Aning, can I grow those peppers? Just a few plants will do. It's hard for me to make money while raising a child. I thought I'd grow some so I can have a better life."

"Of course. I was just about to tell you about this. Most people in our village aren't willing to do this and don't want to take the risk. I thought you felt the same way."

"It's just that I signed a contract with Zuixianju, and the peppers my family grows can only be sold to them. If someone else offers a higher price, I won't force you. I just ask that the first two batches be sold to Zuixianju, as a favor to me."

Widow Song never thought that growing a few vegetables would involve so many complications. If she sold them indiscriminately and disrupted Aning's business, wouldn't she, Song Guizhi, be considered an ungrateful person?

"This is what you found. You used it to make money. You didn't have to take us with you. You're lucky to be able to bring the villagers to grow it together. How could you sell it to someone else? That would be a slap in your face.

Don't worry, sister. Although I am poor, I understand this principle. If you want to make money for a long time, don't think about the immediate profit.

After this one-time deal, my character is ruined. How can I stay in the village?"

Song An Ning was surprised by her words. She didn't expect that Widow Song had such high-level thoughts.

But money can be a powerful tool for the heart. One hundred coins per jin might sway some, but what about one liang of silver per jin? Will you still remain steadfast in your original aspiration?

Human nature is the most fragile thing, and she doesn't want to test it.

From the very beginning of promoting chili peppers, I thought that the villagers were pretty nice, and I wanted to help them get rich together so that I wouldn't arouse envy after I became rich.

"Sister Guizhi is right. So, are you planning to use this money to buy vegetable seedlings? Five plants for one cent, so forty-eight cents would buy over two hundred plants. Isn't that too much?"

Widow Song quickly waved her hands, "No, no, just plant some in the vegetable garden and carve out a piece of land in the yard, that's enough."

"Okay, then come to my house tomorrow morning."

The two chatted about something else, and then Song An Ning stood up, said goodbye, and went to the next house.

The last family was Song Daguang’s, who gave 150 copper coins. Like Widow Song’s family, he also used these copper coins to exchange for vegetable seedlings.

The debt was finally cleared. On the system screen, there was no debt behind the [Wealth] column, and I felt much better.

Being debt-free makes her feel so relieved. Although it is only three taels of silver, it feels better than earning thirty taels of silver. The burden on her heart is finally lifted.

There were a few white clouds floating in the blue sky, and birds were singing happily on the branches, as if they were celebrating for her.

The air is filled with the fragrance of flowers, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Song Anning opened her arms, took a deep breath, felt the fresh air, and couldn't help but feel intoxicated by it.

When you are free of debt, the air is sweet.

"Master, you look so happy. Even when we captured so many wild boars that night in the bamboo forest, I never saw you so excited."

"Chou Xiangxiang, you don't understand..."

This was her first small goal in this era. She remembered that when she first arrived, she was blocked in the yard by a group of people...

My emotions at that time were very complicated. I was confused at first, afraid of the unknown world, sad about leaving my parents, and embarrassed by being chased by a group of people for debts...

The incomparable sense of accomplishment from successfully completing a task can be summed up in one sentence: I feel like I can do it again!

She wanted to stew a big pot of the wild rabbit that Dahui sent to celebrate.

After arriving home, Wang Qiuyue had already prepared the hare and pheasant. I don't know where she learned this skill, but she could peel off a whole rabbit skin very quickly.

I've found a treasure! Wang Qiuyue is such a treasure! Is He Fangfang blind? She even wants to sell her.

"Sister Qiuyue, heat up the oil in a pan and let's stew the rabbit meat."

Wang Qiuyue was stunned. Two big wild rabbits, weighing more than ten pounds together, were all stewed?

"After it's cooked, send some to my grandfather and his family. There are so many people at home, and there won't be enough to share."

She knew that Song An Ning was happy to pay back the money, so she didn't want to spoil the fun. There was a hint of pampering in her voice:

"Listen to Aning, let's stew a big pot of meat and have a good meal."

One of them added firewood while the other stewed meat, and they were busy and having a lot of fun.

"Ding, the host has paid off his debts ahead of schedule and will be issuing a credit gift package."

Song Anning rolled her eyes. Xiangxiang always does this at this time.

Then, she saw a shit-yellow button appear on the screen...
