Living with Xu was not only inconvenient for her to go to the express station at any time, but she could not bear the resentful look in Lin Jingce's eyes sometimes!

She didn't want to be a stumbling block in their marriage, so she wanted to build a house as soon as possible and get out of her current situation.

What's more, this thatched house looks leaky. If it rains one day, the house will probably leak like a sieve and become uninhabitable. It's always good to prepare for a rainy day.

Aunt Zhang hesitated a bit. "Building so many rooms will cost a lot of money, right? I'm afraid this one hundred and twenty taels won't be enough."

Shen Wanning thought about this problem. The village head probably didn't think that she would build such a big house, so the one hundred and twenty taels was definitely not enough.

Thinking of this, Shen Wanning took out another ginseng that she had not taken out before from her sleeve.

"Mom, I said before that finding mushrooms made me realize there might be a water source nearby. So, not only did we find mushrooms nearby, we also found Ganoderma lucidum! In fact, Ganoderma lucidum is also a type of mushroom.

Perhaps because few people venture into the deep mountains, I managed to find two Ganoderma lucidum and a ginseng. I was so busy just now that I forgot to take them out, and after so many trips back and forth, I'd forgotten about them. I quietly put the Ganoderma lucidum in the grass near the yard.

Several people at the table stared at what Shen Wanning was holding in her hand, holding their breath, unable to believe what they saw.

Xu was the first to shout, "Oh my goodness, Wan Ning, how many things can you pull out of your sleeves? Last time, the silver ingot, and this time, the ginseng. Wan Ning, I'm afraid your sleeves can produce anything, right?"

After saying that, Xu came over and pulled Shen Wanning's sleeve, looking inside and touching it again and again, but there was nothing inside.

Shen Wanning smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you overestimate me. This sleeve can only hold ginseng. Otherwise, why would I put Ganoderma lucidum in the haystack?"

Aunt Zhang quickly stood up and said, "Hurry up, hurry up, go and see if the Ganoderma is still there. If someone else has taken it, I'll have nowhere to cry!"

"Don't worry, Mom, I hid it well. I'll get it back now." Shen Wanning pulled Aunt Zhang to sit down, and stood up to get the Ganoderma lucidum.

He said he was going outside to look for Ganoderma lucidum, but in fact he was just wandering around outside and found a secluded place to take the Ganoderma lucidum out of the express station.

Lin Dashan took one of the Ganoderma lucidum and looked at it, muttering, "Is this a Ganoderma lucidum? Doesn't it look just like a mushroom? Wan Ning, is this really a Ganoderma lucidum?"

Shen Wanning nodded. "This is really Ganoderma lucidum. I just wonder how much these two Ganoderma lucidum and this ginseng can sell for! Oh, by the way, Dad, Mom, and everyone else, please don't reveal our family's wealth, or they'll covet it. It's not like the peaceful times when everyone was well fed and clothed."

Aunt Zhang nodded. "I saved myself the trouble. Xu, your mouth is like a loud speaker. Don't go around saying nonsense outside."

Xu lowered her head and muttered quietly, "How can I have the chance to talk nonsense outside? Every time I spend money, it's lost before I can even warm it up. We don't have much money at home!"

Aunt Zhang glared at her and said, "It's good that you know. It's better to spend the money on us than to let thieves target us."

"Mom and Dad, I think we should do this. Tomorrow, Dad will take my second brother to town to sell wild boars. You can pay Brother Tieniu to help carry the wild boars. As for my eldest brother, he can stay home to fetch water. I'm worried about having no man at home. Mom and I will go to the county to sell these ginseng and ganoderma. I've met the owner of the county's charity hall. He should remember me and they can give me a fair price."

Shen Wanning's main consideration was that Lin Jingce and Lin Dashan had similar personalities: quiet and honest. In comparison, Lin Jingcheng was more outspoken and shrewd. Otherwise, if Lin Dashan took Lin Jingce to sell the wild boar, they would suffer losses.

Lin Dashan was still smoking, and he said slowly, "I think I won't go to town this time. Let the eldest son take the second son, so that they can carry the pig. My old bones can't help much, so I won't make things worse. I will go to queue up for water tomorrow morning. Don't worry, although I am old, I can still carry water."

In fact, this is what Shen Wanning wanted to say, but it was not easy to arrange Lin Dashan to fetch water directly, so she was roundabout.

Aunt Zhang glanced at him and said, "That's good. You're old now, so you don't have to go through so much trouble."

Lin Dashan originally wanted to say that Aunt Zhang was also old, but under Aunt Zhang's gaze, he didn't dare to say it.

"Okay, let's arrange this for now. Everyone is tired from work today, so go and rest early because you have to get up early tomorrow." said Aunt Zhang, the head of the family.

Shen Wanning suddenly found this family quite interesting. There weren't many men in the village who were as henpecked as Lin Dashan. In other families, it was considered good enough if they didn't beat their wives, let alone listen to them.

Lying in bed at night, Shen Wanning was curious about this and asked Xu about it specifically.

It was from Mrs. Xu that she learned that Aunt Zhang had been bought as a child bride. Her parents had wanted to sell her to a brothel in order to find a wife for her younger brother. Later, Lin Dashan's parents saw her and, out of kindness, bought her as his child bride.

Although she was a child bride, Lin Dashan's parents treated her almost like their own daughter. In fact, they treated her better than Lin Dashan because they loved her.

This is why Aunt Zhang is not like other wives who are timid. Perhaps it is because she has received too much love that she has developed this kind of temper and is able to control Lin Dashan.

Because she was treated so well by her parents-in-law, she was willing to pass on this love. For example, they took her in and treated her like their own daughter. Another example is that they loved their daughter-in-law and did not waste her time like other mothers-in-law.

Thinking of this, Shen Wanning felt a surge of warmth in her heart. Meeting the Lin family was her good fortune. She was willing to pass on this kindness and help Daqing Village. If possible, she would like to help everyone in this era as much as possible.

After thinking about it, I fell asleep.

The next morning, before five o'clock, Xu excitedly called her to get up.

Because they were selling things and building a house, everyone in the family was in high spirits. Getting up early didn't affect their mood at all.

The same is true for Shen Wanning.

The thought of having her own room soon and having a lot of money cheered her up and she no longer felt sleepy.

After breakfast, the three children carried their schoolbags and headed for Daji Village. The others took the bus to town as planned yesterday.

The village head was already waiting for them on a cart, carrying documents. Fortunately, Tie Niu's cart was big enough to accommodate the five of them and a wild boar.

"Tie Niu, wait a minute." Before they set off, they heard the voice of Chen the Hunter coming from behind.
