My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

"Qingxue still has a lot of peaches. Before anyone comes, let's pick some more and put them in your treasure. There are still so many on the tree anyway."

Li Yanniang looked up at the peaches on the peach tree, which were almost the same, and opened her mouth and whispered.

Lin Qingxue didn't say anything. She looked at her two sisters-in-law, Wang Furong and Liu Jiali. Seeing that they had the same idea, she readily agreed.

Lin Qingxue put the two baskets full of peaches into the space, replaced the peaches in the baskets into the wooden basin in the space, and then the five of them climbed up the tree to continue picking peaches.

When the aunts from the village came over, Lin Qingxue and the others had picked a total of four baskets and brought them into the space, and they were still picking peaches in their hands.

"Aunts, come here, quickly climb up the tree and pick the peaches. Whoever picks the most will keep them. There are still many peaches on the tree, and no one is allowed to grab them."

Seeing that all the aunts from the village had come over, Li Yanniang also climbed down from the tree. She said to the aunts with a smile.

Seeing Li Yanniang go down, Fang Furong and Liu Jiali followed her down. The sisters Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingyue, seeing that the basket was full again, also followed her down the tree.

"Okay, Qingming daughter-in-law, thank you for giving up the peaches. Auntie will remember your kindness."

The person who spoke was a middle-aged woman with a kind face. She was of the same generation as Aunt Lin and about the same age.

After hearing what the aunt said, others also began to express their gratitude and thanks.

"Okay, then, aunts and sisters-in-law, you take your time picking the peaches. We will go back first," Li Yanniang said, and she and Fang Furong carried the baskets full of peaches and prepared to go down the mountain.

The two oldest sisters-in-law carried peaches on their backs, and Lin Qingxue and the other three naturally carried their baskets of wild vegetables which were not filled with much. The five of them walked back and soon reached the pond, where they saw Uncle Lin and Lin Qingchu still guarding the pond.

"Dad, cousin, you are still here guarding. Let me wash some peaches for you to eat!" Seeing Uncle Lin and the others, Li Yan's mother walked over and put the basket on the ground, then took a few peaches to the pond to wash them.

The washed peaches were given to Uncle Lin and Lin Qingchu one each, and the rest were for the five of them. They found an open space nearby and sat down, eating peaches and resting.

"Eldest wife, are there many peaches on the tree?" Uncle Lin asked in a low voice while eating sweet peaches. Although his voice was low, everyone present could hear it.

"It's not much. We only picked two baskets. The remaining ones on the tree are enough for the people who come to fill half a basket."

Li Yanniang replied with a smile, "Who has more or less depends on the speed of those people's hands, it has nothing to do with them."

"That's fine. It's enough if we can take it home and let everyone taste it," Uncle Lin smiled. It was enough for others to just taste it. He believed that he definitely had more than two baskets of peaches.

After Lin Qingxue and the other four finished eating the peaches in their hands, they each carried their baskets, said something to Uncle Lin, and went home.

Uncle Lin and his friends didn't stay long. After everyone had carried water, they followed the last person down the mountain. As for the remaining water in the pond, they would have to come back tomorrow to carry it away.

Not long after Lin's father and his companions left, the aunts who had gone up the mountain to pick peaches also returned home carrying half a basket of peaches.

Knowing that we were coming to the mountain to pick peaches, everyone who came was the one with quick hands. After all the peaches were picked, we found that everyone's hands were almost the same.

By the time Lin's father and the others returned home, it was gradually getting dark, and by the time the aunts returned home, it was completely dark.

"Are you starving? I've already prepared dinner, everyone, come sit down and eat!"

Seeing that Uncle Lin had also arrived home, Aunt Lin prepared to eat.

"Then let's eat!" Uncle Lin responded, and everyone sat down and prepared to eat.

The Lin family’s dinner consisted of fried bacon, cold wild vegetables, and spam fried rice, and the staple food was sweet potato rice.

After dinner, Li Yan's mother and her sisters-in-law took the initiative to clean up the dishes, while the others sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air and chat.

"The situation is getting more and more serious, everyone should be prepared," said Old Man Lin, sitting under the eaves, looking up at the moon with dull eyes.

"Have you all packed your things? Mark the boxes yourself and let Qingxue put them away for you," Mrs. Lin said softly as she sat next to Old Man Lin.

"Everything has been put away. We left one set of clothes outside, and the rest have been put away," Li Yanniang looked up at Mrs. Lin and whispered. She believed that her family could survive this difficult time.

"Yes, Grandma, Mother, we have packed our luggage and are waiting for Qingxue to put away the boxes. We have also reorganized the food at home, leaving 300 kilograms of sweet potatoes, 200 kilograms of black flour, 200 kilograms of stalk rice and a jar of vegetables outside. Qingxue put the rest into the treasure."

Fang Furong then said that as soon as they arrived home in the afternoon, they didn't have time to rest. They asked the eldest sister Lin Xiaoshan to take his younger brothers and sisters to wash peaches to eat, and the three sisters-in-law took Lin Qingxue and her sister to the cellar to pack up the food.

"Grandpa and grandma, don't worry! Our family is all together. I have also put all the valuables and food in the house into the treasure. We will be fine," Lin Qingxue sat next to Mrs. Lin, leaned on her and whispered to comfort her.

Others also spoke up to comfort the two elders. For them, as long as the family is together, any difficulties can be overcome.

"Sister-in-law, take me with you to collect your luggage first. Let uncle take my brother and the others to stay up late to do carpentry work. We still have to go to the mountain to fetch water tomorrow!"

Lin Qingxue whispered that it was not that she did not feel sorry for the man in her family, but there was no other way. If her family did not go to fetch water, it would definitely attract everyone's attention.

But the carpentry work couldn't be neglected, so they had to stay up late to do it. Fortunately, it would only be tiring for a few days because they had to prepare everything before setting off.

"Everyone, get busy! Xiaoshan, take your brothers back to the house and go to sleep." Seeing that everyone was about to start working, Aunt Lin asked the younger ones to go back to the house to rest.

"Grandma, I'm grown up now. I'll go help my dad and the others! Let Xiaotao take the brothers back to the house to sleep."

Lin Xiaoshan looked up at Aunt Lin and Uncle Lin with a serious look on his face. He was too old to just eat plain rice at home.

Seeing that he was serious, Uncle Lin and Lin Qingming agreed, but they would not let him stay up all night with them, they would just let him go to bed later.

After Lin Qingxue went to her three brothers and sisters-in-law's rooms to put away the boxes, she immediately went to her nephews' rooms.

Time passed minute by minute, and half an hour later, Lin Qingxue finally completed all the work.

She breathed a sigh of relief, then went to say hello to Li Yanniang and said that she wanted to go back to the house to rest.
