Travel to the mountains and make a fortune in silence

"Uncle, wait for me!" Mu Yao and Zi Yuan couldn't keep up with the two older boys, and called out anxiously as they chased after them.

"Mu Lin, Zi Hao, you two are neglecting Yao'er and Zi Yuan again, aren't you!" Mu Qin scolded her two younger brothers.

"Sister-in-law, sister, they can't run at all, and they still have to follow us every day." Mu Lin complained, but her body still told her to stop and wait for the two little ones, and then she pulled them together to Wang Qing'er.

"Hmph! Uncle, Grandma and Grandpa said that once my mother has younger brothers and sisters, she'll have someone to play with. By then, if you want Yao'er to play with you, Yao'er won't have time to play with you!" Yao'er pouted and grumbled.

Wang Qing'er, "..."

Are Grandma and Mom pressuring her to have a baby behind her back? As long as they're not pressuring her in front of her, let's just pretend we don't know!

"Mulin, Zihao, where did you get those things?" Wang Qing'er asked excitedly when she saw that each of them was holding a thick aloe vera plant.

"Sister-in-law, this was brought from the foot of the mountain on the east side. There are plenty there, and we use them for fighting."

The "battle" that Mu Lin was referring to was that he and the other children in the village split into two teams and applied aloe vera juice to each other.

If you apply aloe vera juice to someone's face, that person will eliminate one of their teammates; in their words, one of them will "die."

"Mu Lin, take me there quickly, this sister-in-law is useful." Wang Qing'er became even more excited when she heard that there were many.

Aloe vera is a wonderful thing! It can be used to make aloe vera soap or aloe vera gel that can be applied directly to the skin.

It can also be used to apply all over the body when the skin is dry in winter.

In short, once she has aloe vera, she can do more than just make scented soap.

"Okay, let's go now." Mu Lin immediately became interested when he heard his sister-in-law say it was useful. He wondered what new and interesting things his sister-in-law would come up with this time. He was really looking forward to it, and he hoped that it was edible.

"Mu Lin, you can borrow a small hoe or sickle from your friend's house." Wang Qing'er thought that since they were going to go see it, they should bring some home, and they could also dig some up and plant them.

Aloe vera has a strong ability to reproduce and survive. As long as there is enough space for them to grow, they can keep sprouting new shoots!

It doesn't require much care and is very drought-tolerant.

"Okay, sis, you take sister-in-law over first, we'll be there soon!" Mu Lin said as he walked over to his friends and told them he needed to borrow hoes and sickles from their house.

Upon hearing this, the children all headed home.

As Wang Qing'er walked, she asked Mu Qin, "Mu Qin, do you know how many aloe vera plants grow in the mountains to the east?"

"Sister-in-law, I don't know. I only know that the children in the village often play with it." Mu Qin was a girl who rarely played with the children in the village, so she didn't know how much aloe vera there was.

"Mommy, I know! There are so many aloe vera plants at the foot of the mountain, and many of them are huge, taller and bigger than me. My uncle and the others say those are the king aloe vera plants, and the other small aloe vera plants are just its shrimp soldiers and crab generals." Mu Yao described the scene vividly, gesturing as she spoke, looking incredibly cute.

"Yes, sister-in-law, I know too. There are so many, they're very tall and big, and some are even prickly," Ziyuan said, not to be outdone.

"Really? Yao'er, Yuan'er, lead the way, let's go take a look!" Wang Qing'er said with a smile to the two little cuties.

"it is good."

"it is good."

They hadn't walked far when they arrived at the foot of the mountain to the east.

"Mother, look, those are all aloe vera!" Mu Yao said, pointing to a large patch of aloe vera at the foot of the mountain.

Wang Qing'er looked in the direction she pointed.

Good heavens! What incredible luck she's had! Why are there so many aloe vera plants here?

A large patch of lush aloe vera appeared before her eyes.

They're everywhere, big and small, but the biggest one is probably what they call the Aloe Vera King.

Her eyes are already as tall as hers, could she have become a spirit?

There are many others.

"Muqin, does this mountain land belong to someone?" If it does, she can't just dig it up.

She didn't want to be mistaken for a thief and caught by her owner when she was digging up aloe vera later; that would be embarrassing.

"It belongs to the village. Sister-in-law, you're not thinking of buying the mountain again, are you?" Muqin thought her sister-in-law was going to buy the mountain again. Her sister-in-law had asked her before if the peach orchard was owned, and then she bought it.

"I'm not buying it. I think it's not good to just dig up a mountain that already has an owner. I should tell the owner first." Actually, she wanted to buy it, but she planned to wait until she made money from Xiangyizi before doing so.

Let's forget about it for now; we need to save our money to buy a shop.

Mu Qin asked, "Sister-in-law, do you need a lot of this aloe vera?"

"Yes, the more the better. It's too far from here. I'm going to dig some up and plant them on the back mountain."

Mu Lin hadn't brought his hoe yet, so Wang Qing'er had to break off a branch and start digging up some small plants.

Muqin also helped dig with tree branches. The small trees had fewer roots, so they dug them up quickly, and soon they had filled a wooden bucket.

"Sister-in-law, we're here!" Mu Lin's voice came from outside.

Wang Qing'er looked up and saw Mu Lin and Zi Hao followed by four or five children, each carrying a basket on their back and a small hoe in their hand. Some of them even had two small hoes in their hands.

"Sister-in-law, these are all my good brothers, they've all come to help you dig!" Mu Lin said, panting heavily.

“Wang Er, Li Youtian…this is my sister-in-law.”

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

……

"Hello, thank you for coming to help." Wang Qing'er greeted them with a smile!

Mu Lin asked anxiously, "Sister-in-law, tell me quickly how to dig?"

"Mu Lin, you and your friends help me dig up these small aloe vera plants." Wang Qing'er was worried that the children would damage the aloe vera, so she only let them dig up the small ones.

She then led Muqin to dig up the larger plants, with the largest aloe vera becoming her primary target.

But after walking around and studying it for a long time, they finally decided to give up. It was just too big, and even if they dug it out, they wouldn't be able to transport it back.

Let it grow here for now!

Wang Qing'er then began to dig up smaller aloe vera plants.

She carefully dug up the soil around the aloe vera plants, successfully unearthing them one by one and placing them in the large basket that Mu Lin had brought.

After Wang Qing'er got the hang of digging, she focused on digging the larger ones. Fortunately, the children's baskets were quite large, and each basket could hold several trees.

Both wooden buckets were filled with small aloe vera plants that the children had dug up.

That aloe vera plant was really big. She used a sickle to cut off the surrounding aloe vera petals, and each of the petals she cut off was much taller than her.

This really is the king of aloe vera.

Each petal was so plump that it had to be cut into several pieces before it could be barely put into the basket.

I only cut a few pieces and the basket was full; these can be made into fragrant soap today.

Before long, each child's basket was full, and each child was also holding a few more stalks in their hands.

"Mu Lin, are there any other roads leading home?"
