After the arranged marriage, she farms and survives under the tutelage of the villainous boss.

“This is pokeweed.” Jiang Zhiyun walked over and ruffled it with her hands. “This thing is very similar to wild ginseng, but its berries are different. They turn black when ripe, and the leaves are also different. So, I guess most people can’t tell the difference.”

Jiang Zhiyun walked to where Jiang Zhiwan was kneeling: "Let's kneel somewhere else. I'm going to dig up some ginseng."

Jiang Zhiwan was also a little confused and instinctively moved away.

Yunniang acted very naturally, using a sickle to cut the weeds at her feet, and then pulled out the stems and leaves of a small leaf that had been trampled down and a bunch of small red fruits.

It doesn't look like it's growing very well, and it's not as lush as the one from before. The main problem is that the roots are getting old.

"This is ginseng?" Jiang Zhiwan asked mockingly. "Even if I don't understand, I know there aren't many roots or grass underneath this rubbish. Ginseng is at least radish-shaped!"

"Don't try to fool me with some pokeweed. We grew up together, and I don't even know what pokeweed is. You made it up yourself."

"Really?" Jiang Zhiyun asked with a hint of mockery. "So certain."

“Although I grew up with you, I was always busy cutting pig feed and gathering firewood on the mountain, while you were always idle at home. I know a lot more than that.”

"It's understandable that you don't know."

She pointed at Jiang Zhiyun, her anger rising, but she had no room for rebuttal.

"Wouldn't I know if I dug it out?"

Since Jiang Zhiwan is so curious, she doesn't mind digging it out.

Although it's said that wealth shouldn't be flaunted, and the original plan was to dig it up and sell it, it's not a big deal for everyone to know now.

Jiang Zhiyun squatted down, wanting to maintain the ritual of ginseng digging. She took out a red rope from her basket and tied it to the ginseng.

Jiang Zhiwan was getting impatient: "What are you doing making a big fuss about? It's so hard to dig something up."

The clan chief said with some disdain, "That's the rule our ancestors had for digging ginseng. If you don't tie it with a red rope, the ginseng will run away. You're saying this because you've never even seen how to dig ginseng."

Jiang Zhiwan: "..."

The clan leader was a novelty; he brought along the Jiang family members behind him, as well as Jiang Laosan and his two elder brothers, all of whom gathered around to watch.

Jiang Zhiyun used a hoe and a planer to first draw a square frame around the ginseng, and then inserted rope sticks at the four corners.

Now they focused on digging for ginseng, digging from all sides towards the center. Ginseng has many roots, so it was okay at first, but it became more and more difficult as they went deeper.

When they had dug about halfway through, they could see the intricate ginseng roots. At this point, the old clan chief nodded in approval: "This is ginseng. I've seen our ancestors dig it up before. But no one has found it in all these years."

"This one that Yunniang dug up must be quite old!"

Generally, the price of ginseng increases with its age. Jiang Zhiyun nodded and touched the leaves: "The stems and leaves have been damaged and have grown several times over, so it doesn't look very good."

"In my experience, a lifespan should be forty years. That's not too long, but it's not too short either."

As she spoke, she continued digging, digging for ginseng. Many people might spend half a day or even a whole day doing this, because they don't want to damage anything. It's too precious.

Seeing that Jiang Zhiyun was still busy, the clan leader looked at Jiang Zhiwan and said, "Have you given up yet?"

"Come back with us and be drowned in a pig cage."

Jiang Laosan still pleaded with a stern face: "Wan Niang is just a child. She wouldn't have done those things to frame her sister. She just lost herself for a moment."

"Clan leader, why don't you spare Wan Niang this time?"

“…” Yunniang was stunned when she heard this. In her eyes, her father had always been selfish and self-serving. He was despicable in everything he did, and he would even beat and scold her.

It's ridiculous that someone who cares so much about his reputation is now pleading for Jiang Zhiwan...

It seems that no matter how bad a person is, they still have the ability to love, but the person they love is never Jiang Zhiyun.

Having known about favoritism in both her lives, Jiang Zhiyun still found it somewhat ironic to witness it firsthand. It seemed that everyone would go to great lengths to abandon her.

The clan chief looked at Jiang Laosan and said, "I don't know what your attitude is, but how can you, as a father, show favoritism? She's targeting your daughter too."

"Furthermore, putting that aside for now, Jiang Zhiwan agreed to it herself, and she was willing to be drowned in a pig cage. No one forced her back then. Now everyone is a bad person, and she's the only pitiful one?"

"I've been the patriarch of the Jiang family for so many years, and I've never heard of such a thing. It's so ridiculous."

"Alright, Jiang Laoda, Jiang Laoer. Take them to the riverbank, Chentang, and soak them in the pig cage."

Jiang Zhiwan was taken away like a walking corpse.

Even now, she still can't understand why, even though she has been reborn, she still feels inferior to Jiang Zhiyun.

She couldn't understand how she had been stuffed into a cage made of vines and thrown into the river in a daze.

There were quite a few onlookers. At this moment, Jiang Zhiwan's head was exposed and she could breathe, but she needed to be pushed down for a while before being brought back up.

She harbored deep hatred for Jiang Zhiyun, and every time she raised her head to exhale, she would silently repeat in her heart: Jiang Zhiyun, I want you dead.

Yes, it's nothing now. This punishment of drowning in a pig cage isn't considered severe. It's just that the whole village is watching, so it's a bit embarrassing.

This time, the drowning in the pig cage was also a way of bringing the blame onto her mother-in-law and husband. As long as Xu Ping'an didn't divorce her, she felt everything was alright. In short, as long as Xu Ping'an and the Xu family were alive, she wasn't afraid of anything.

People around came over and pointed and whispered:

"Is Jiang Zhiwan out of her mind? She's drowned and still cursing people. She probably hates Jiang Zhiyun to death."

"Don't even mention Jiang Zhiyun, she hired four or five strong men to molest people. If Yunniang hadn't escaped, her body would never have been found. This is the first time I've ever seen such a vicious person."

"They even contacted the clan leader and people from the Jiang and Xu families a long time ago. I think the Xu family is also involved in this matter. Jiang Zhiwan, that young girl, was quite clever before she got married."

"Now I only see their venomous hearts. We should stay away from them."

"..."

Every person who comes along will curse at her, and even children passing by will spit on her.

Jiang Zhiwan had never suffered such injustice before. Zhao Guifen wept beside her, crying, "My son!"

"It'll be over soon, it'll be over soon, just hang in there a little longer..."

The Xu family has remained silent all this time.

Jiang Zhiyun also finished digging up the ginseng and rushed back from the mountain.

Aunt Hong pulled her along, saying, "Yunniang, I'll take you to see your elder sister. At least she's been punished."

Jiang Zhiyun nodded. The reason they dug up the ginseng so quickly was to see what would become of this person.
