A farmer has a shrewish wife; he's busy making money every day.

As soon as they finished eating, Lu Meng eagerly brought the medicine to Ye Qingxue.

"Little Xue, drink it, the sooner you drink it, the sooner you'll recover."

Ye Qingxue was comfortably dozing off when she heard Lu Meng's malicious voice.

Ugh, annoying.

Ye Qingxue took the bowl of medicine, tilted her head back, and drank it down.

Where no one could see, she secretly put the purple bamboo herbal pill in her mouth.

This quick-pregnancy soup drains a woman's body in exchange for a fetus, which is like poison to her. Therefore, the purple bamboo grass also plays a role.

Under Lu Meng's expectant and lewd gaze, Ye Qingxue drank every last drop of the medicine.

Lu Meng smiled, his small eyes narrowing into slits, looking like two strips of meat pressed together: "Okay, okay."

Seeing that Ye Qingxue had finished drinking, Lu Meng felt relieved and went back to his room for a nap.

Li You went to wash the dishes now.

She wanted to invite Ye Qingxue along, but she was afraid that Lu Meng would scold her again, so she reluctantly took the bowl and left.

The medicine was so bitter that Ye Qingxue frowned, and Lin Zhi patted her back with heartache.

Seeing that the Lu family couple were not around, Ye Qingxue took out the antidote she had prepared.

"Oh, right, Father and Mother, I brought back some herbs from the mountain and brewed them. You should drink them quickly."

Ye Jing and Lin Zhi exchanged a glance.

"This... Xiaoxue, you really know her?" Ye Jing asked, somewhat incredulous.

"Oh, Mom and Dad, don't hesitate, drink it quickly, you'll know once you drink it."

Seeing their daughter's anxious expression, the couple knew she was doing it for their own good, so they didn't hesitate and swallowed the medicine in a few gulps.

"It tastes so bitter, Xiaoxue, this medicine..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Zhi and Ye Jing collapsed to the ground.

Ye Qingxue sighed.

The parents had too many toxins in their bodies, and as soon as the purple bamboo grass took effect, they couldn't withstand it and fainted.

I wonder how long she'll stay unconscious.

Ye Qingxue carried Lin Zhi and the other person to bed, covered them with blankets, and then coaxed Ye Hao'er to sleep.

After taking the two rabbits from the room, Ye Qingxue went out.

She went to find the family that owned a donkey.

After asking around along the way, Ye Qingxue finally arrived.

This is a family surnamed Lu.

Just as Ye Qingxue was about to knock on the door, she heard a shrill bray of a donkey.

Immediately afterwards, a donkey rushed out of the gate in front of her and ran straight towards her.

Ye Qingxue was startled and quickly took a step to the side, pressing her palm down on the donkey's head.

He circulated his inner energy and managed to subdue the donkey.

An elderly woman with her head wrapped in a green cloth ran out of the door, carrying a kitchen knife.

"You wretched donkey! I've raised you with such care all these years! Now you're old, what's wrong with giving me some food? Why are you running away!"

Ye Qingxue: ...

Look at what you're saying! If you want to eat someone else's food, won't they just run away?

However, this donkey can't be eaten; what would she use it for if she did?

"Aunt Lu?"

Only then did the old woman notice the little girl standing next to her.

"what's up?"

"I'm here to rent a donkey."

Aunt Lu looked Ye Qingxue up and down a few times.

In recent years, food has become increasingly scarce in the deserted village, and there is simply nothing extra to sell in town. As a result, very few people ask her to rent a donkey anymore.

They were so hungry that they decided to kill and eat it.

Aunt Lu was somewhat reluctant: "What are you going to offer to rent it out?"

She saw that the little girl was dressed in tattered clothes and didn't look like she needed to go to town. She wondered if she was just there to play a trick on her.

Ye Qingxue took two rabbits out of her basket: "Will these be okay?"

Aunt Lu's eyes lit up immediately.

She hadn't eaten meat in a long time. She was a widow with no one to help her, and her usual food consisted of wild vegetables from the mountains.

It's very bitter.

"Two? Okay, you can take them, but you can only use them for one day."

Ye Qingxue immediately realized that Aunt Lu was trying to extort money from her.

Two rabbits, dried into rabbit jerky, could last a month, yet an old donkey can only be rented for one day. Nobody would do this kind of business.

Ye Qingxue feigned disappointment: "Only one day? What a pity. I was thinking of renting it for half a year. I was thinking that if I didn't have enough rabbits, I would have two chickens at home, but this is too expensive. I may not be able to afford this donkey."

She turned to leave, but before she had taken two steps, she heard Aunt Lu's anxious voice.

"Wait! I'll rent you!"
