Before Xiao Yan could say anything, Tian had already called out, "Master, let's go, let's go back quickly. We have to ask the matchmaker to go and talk first. We can't be careless!"

"Hey, hey." Xiao Fushan hurriedly followed.

Neither of them cared whether Xiao Yan followed or not.

At this time, at the Jiang family, Jiang Ningning was squatting in the corridor eating breakfast and munching on wild vegetable pancakes.

After finishing eating, Jiang Ningning took a basket and said she wanted to go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables.

After the family happily celebrated her birthday by eating noodles last night, Jiang Shengcai and Sun completely believed that she had thought it through, and no one followed her anymore.

When they got to the mountain, Jiang Ningning actually dug some wild vegetables and spread them in the basket.

Then, while there was no one around, he took out more than 30 pheasant eggs from the space and put them into the basket.

She also stockpiled a lot of eggs in her space, all kinds of eggs.

The eggs are still very fresh.

This is because no matter what the object is, it will remain in the same shape when it is put in, and will never deteriorate.

She couldn't just provide food for the family now, because she didn't have a good excuse like yesterday, so she could only pretend that she had picked up pheasant eggs from the mountain.

Then the family can use these eggs to exchange for food.

The food we get in return should be enough to last for two or three days.

I talked to my husband last night and decided to leave it like this for now. Once we get engaged, I can naturally let go and prepare more food for the family. Even if my personality changes over time, it won’t matter.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ningning dug some more wild vegetables and covered all the pheasant eggs in the basket.

After staying on the mountain for a while, Jiang Ningning went back.

In the yard, Jiang Shengcai was mending his hoe. He had gone to the fields to weed early in the morning, but the ground was too hard and the handle of the hoe had been broken. He had come back to make a new one and put it back on.

Sun was there too. She was bundling up the firewood that Jiang Shengcai had chopped yesterday and putting it away in the woodshed.

As soon as Jiang Ningning entered the yard, she pushed aside the wild vegetables on the basket to reveal the eggs inside, and said happily:

"Dad, Mom, look, I found two nests of pheasant eggs while I was digging for wild vegetables. I picked them up!"

"Ah, so many!" Jiang Shengcai and Sun came over and took a closer look, and were extremely surprised.

Jiang Shengcai couldn't help rubbing his hands.

"Those two pheasant nests are very well hidden, otherwise there wouldn't be so many. I saw there were a lot of wild vegetables over there, but I didn't expect to find eggs when I went over there."

"That's great, that's great." Jiang Shengcai and Sun kept nodding.

"Mom, go and exchange these eggs for food."

"Yeah!" Sun responded immediately.

Jiang Shengcai said, "The village chief is still helping people collect eggs. You can go to the village chief's house to exchange them."

Sun: "I know."

Soon, Sun came back with the food she had exchanged for.

I exchanged it for more than ten kilograms of brown rice.

This is because pheasant eggs are twice as expensive as domestic eggs.

Jiang Ningning was stunned when she saw that it was all brown rice. Oops, she forgot to remind them not to switch to brown rice, but to switch to polished rice.

Although refined rice can only be exchanged for a few kilograms, it is enough to eat for two or three days.

But since they have all been changed, this is all I can do.

Jiang Shengcai and Sun were delighted. There was food at home again, enough to last them several days.

Be frugal and eat brown rice porridge once a day. If the porridge is cooked thinner, eat wild vegetables at other times. You can even eat them for half a month or a month.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shengcai and Sun couldn't stop smiling.

Jiang Ningning let her parents be happy while she continued to help bundle the firewood. She had already helped bundle several bundles, but now there was only a little left.

But before his hand touched the firewood, he saw the original owner's sister-in-law Shen Chunhua walk in with a smile on her face.

"Second uncle! Second aunt!"

Behind Shen Chunhua were the original owner's aunt Zhu, and Jiang Chuchu, who had half of her face worn off yesterday and was still grimacing in pain.

In the original owner's memory, Shen Chunhua was just a lot more tactful than the other people in his uncle's family, but she was not a good person either.

Zhu was not tactful at all. Before the family split up, she took advantage of the fact that the original owner's grandparents favored her man, and always acted domineeringly in front of the original owner's parents, asking them to do this and that.

He also looked down on the original owner's parents, thinking that they didn't even have a son.

Later, the family split up, and the original owner's grandparents died not long after the split. However, whenever Zhu saw someone from the original owner's family, she would still act domineeringly as before, and her temper had not changed at all. She believed that the original owner's parents should listen to the eldest wife and let her order them around and insult them.

Only when Sun saw Shen Chunhua and others come in did she put down the brown rice in her hand.

Zhu, with a condescending air, glanced at it and said with disdain, "Who did you borrow this rice from? They actually dared to lend it to you, and aren't they afraid that you won't be able to pay it back?"

Shen Chunhua hurriedly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Mom, why are you saying this? We're here for serious business today. Let's talk about serious business."

Zhu then snorted and said, "I heard from Chuchu that even if you starve to death, you will never come to our house to borrow food again. You have backbone. But we, the eldest branch, cannot really watch you, the second branch, die, so we are here today to help your family." She spoke in a tone of alms.

Over the years, Sun and Jiang Shengcai have become accustomed to their sister-in-law's behavior. Normally, they are not tough, and they are only particularly tough when protecting their daughter. Therefore, at this moment, the two of them just let Zhu talk without saying anything.

Shen Chunhua quickly took over the conversation, took Jiang Ningning's hand and said, "Yes, Ningning, we are here to help your family."

Jiang Ningning simply pulled her hand back and hid behind Sun, pretending to be afraid.

"Mom, is the sun rising from the west? They actually said they wanted to help our family, but they have never helped our family before. It was always others who helped our family before. When did they ever help us? They definitely have bad intentions."

This reminded Sun and Jiang Shengcai.

Sun and Jiang Shengcai both protected their daughters behind them and shouted to Zhu and the others, "You can help us?! We're thankful that you didn't harm us. Don't you think our family hasn't been harmed enough?"

As he said this, he glared at Jiang Chuchu.

Jiang Chuchu shrank back.

Her face had been treated by Doctor Lin yesterday. Doctor Lin also prescribed her a lot of topical and oral medicines. In short, she spent a lot of money, but the scars were still left. Doctor Lin had no choice, and her family scolded her.

She came here to watch the fun, and she couldn't stand seeing Jiang Ningning doing well.

Aren't they all from the Jiang family? Why is Jiang Ningning so pretty? And because she is only two days younger than Jiang Ningning, the villagers always compared her with Jiang Ningning. They all praised Jiang Ningning, but not a single word was praising her.

So, when the kitchen was on fire, she pushed Jiang Ningning hard, ruining Jiang Ningning's face.

Don’t even mention how relieved she felt at that time!

Let’s see how Jiang Ningning can still get praise with that face!

But she was also afraid of being stared at by Sun and the others.

What if Sun and the others beat her?

Jiang Chuchu simply stood back a little and hugged her mother's arm.

Looking at her little daughter hugging her arms, Zhu cursed, "Useless thing!", and then said angrily, "We came here to help you out of kindness, and you actually said this. No wonder we are repeatedly -"
