Transmigrated Little Farm Girl Bringing Great Fortune
Chapter 93 Time flies
It suddenly started raining.
The rain is getting heavier.
They stopped the fight among the people in the courtyard.
Summer weather is like a child's face, changing its mood in an instant without warning.
Seeing that the Jiang family had nowhere to take shelter from the rain, the villagers fled back home as if they were escaping.
It takes less than a moment.
There were no villagers left in the courtyard.
Only Qi Caiwei and her servants, looking utterly disheveled, remained.
The once charming woman was now in a sorry state...
She let the rain soak her exquisitely made-up face and drenched her brocade dress.
Her disheveled hair drooped down over her forehead, and her hairpins and ornaments were scattered all over the ground.
He had been slapped several times in the face, his cheeks were red and swollen, and there was a little blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
Tears mingled with raindrops and slid down her cheeks...
Qi Caiwei blushed, gritted her teeth, and stared intently at the closed wooden door of the hall with her bloodshot eyes.
That damned Lu Qingyao must be watching her from inside, laughing at her.
She is unwilling!
She doesn't agree!
Lu Qingyao was an abandoned woman, and the daughter of a disgraced official.
Why should Jiang Yunhu's family side with her?
Why should these villagers help her?
Why would Grand Tutor Cui rather accept the child of a disgraced official than accept her daughter, Pei'er?
She is the daughter of a high-ranking official.
In terms of family background and appearance, how is she not better than Lu Qingyao!
Why is that woman always the one who gets to dominate her?
That's all in the past.
But she has nothing now, so why is she still so arrogant?
She was unwilling to accept it...
Mei-gu tenderly wiped the blood from the corner of her mistress's mouth...
"Madam, let's go. The rain is getting heavier and heavier. Don't catch a cold!" Although the summer rain is refreshing, catching a cold can be very serious.
Furthermore, she was inexplicably slapped in the face and kicked a few times.
My whole body aches terribly right now.
She felt that her own wife wasn't much better.
I can barely walk straight...
The rain continued to fall.
Qi Caiwei and her two children boarded the carriage.
The carriage moved forward slowly.
A large group of servants followed behind.
The scenery was different from when we arrived.
At this moment, their hair was all loose and messy, and their faces were bruised and swollen from being beaten.
In twos and threes, some were supporting their backs, gritting their teeth and moving forward, while others covered their faces and sobbed.
Inside the carriage.
Jiang Zipei wiped away her tears and sobbed.
Jiang Zijin sat curled up next to her younger brother, hugging her feet, her face pale and her voice trembling.
"Mom, I'm cold..."
Qi Caiwei rolled her eyes at her, annoyed.
She also harbored some resentment towards her daughter.
If it weren't for her suggestion, I wouldn't have sent so much money and grain to Jiang Yunhu's family.
Well, now it's all gone into Lu Qingyao's pocket.
Most importantly, they didn't even receive a letter.
They suffered such a humiliating disgrace.
It's like losing your wife and losing your troops!
Losing big!
My heart is bleeding...
She touched her cheek.
It hurts! It hurts so much!
But when she looked up, she saw that her daughter's face looked a little pale.
He touched his hand, then his forehead...
It's so hot!!
Qi Caiwei panicked, "Aunt Mei, quick! Go to the clinic."
Oh no, this is a remote and impoverished place; I wonder if there are any good doctors here.
"Madam, you can't go to the clinic like this..."
Mei Gu felt like she was about to vomit blood. Going to the clinic in this state would probably make her the laughingstock of the entire Qing Shi Town.
Looking around, none of the maids and servants were in good condition.
Thinking of the long journey, they only selected those who were physically strong, but they didn't expect that they couldn't even beat that group of unruly people.
All those years of eating have been for nothing.
It's getting dark, so going to Jiangzhou is out of the question. We'll have to stay overnight in Qingshi Town.
But the house was given to someone else.
Now I have no choice but to swallow my pride and move back in.
What kind of situation is this? I bought the house but I can't even live in it. It's infuriating!
Qi Caiwei felt angry just thinking about that house.
But what else can I do if I don't go there? I'm in such a state that I can't possibly show my face to anyone.
With a determined look, she said, "Let's go back to the house first. We'll go to Jiangzhou tomorrow when Jin'er is feeling better. Right now, I'll go fetch a doctor and buy some wound medicine..."
She rubbed her lower back.
My whole body is in excruciating pain...
Lifting the curtain, she said, "Aunt Mei, submit a complaint to the magistrate. I want to accuse those unruly people of assaulting an official's wife."
Mei Gu was startled. "Madam, you mustn't do this! If this gets back to the capital, it will be disastrous!"
If those censors find out, the head of the family and his wife will probably be impeached again.
Minister Qi will inevitably be implicated as well.
After being reminded by Aunt Mei, Qi Caiwei realized what was going on.
When has she ever felt so frustrated!
I was so angry, my chest hurt from the anger.
"Auntie Mei, hurry up, I'm not feeling well..."
……
"Chirp chirp chirp~~~"
Dan Que's calls pulled Xiao Miaomiao back from her thoughts.
Good heavens! Was that just a group fight?
These people are amazing!
And Aunt Xiuxiu, she seemed to be enjoying the beating...
His mouth was practically stretched to the back of his head in a wide grin.
"Was Miaomiao frightened?" Lu Qingyao looked at her daughter with some concern.
I touched her little face.
I clearly told the little one not to look, but she insisted on peeking through my fingers.
This is just great.
They were all terrified!
“Eeya ya ya…”
Little Miaomiao responded by squeezing her mother's fingers.
I wasn't scared.
How could she possibly be scared!
He pulled a milk tablet from his pocket and put it in his mouth to calm his nerves...
“Sister, I think Miaomiao is quite bold,” Aunt Xiuxiu said with a smile.
"Even the bravest child is still a kid!"
Lu Qingyao sighed. This kid actually likes watching people fight.
Who knows if he'll be a mischievous troublemaker in the future?
"Sister, I think those people were seriously injured!" Although the villagers were also injured, their injuries were far less severe than those of Qi Caiwei and her group.
Those servants, accustomed to heavy labor and easy tasks, were no match for the villagers.
Lu Qingyao took out five taels of silver from her bosom.
"Xiuxiu, go to town and buy some wound medicine to send to the villagers. Go on horseback; the carriage should be back by now."
Jiang Miaomiao: "..."
Five taels of silver!
Is her mother going to buy up all the wound medicine in the entire Qing Shi Town?
After Aunt Xiuxiu left.
Jiang Miaomiao saw her aunt walk over and hold the hands of the mother and daughter, her eyes full of pity.
"Sister-in-law, you've suffered so much marrying Jiang Yunze! He must be blind to have fallen for that woman. Miaomiao is pitiful too, she's never had a father's love since she was little..."
"Don't worry, we won't acknowledge that woman. Only you are the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. We only recognize you."
Lu Qingyao smiled awkwardly, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Whether they acknowledge it or not, what does it matter!
Jiang Yunhu pulled his wife aside, "Alright, go check if Mother and Xuan-ge'er were frightened, and we should also tidy up the things in the yard."
He looked at Lu Qingyao.
He didn't care about Jiang Yunze at all, and he didn't even care about that concubine.
It's probably only a matter of time before he leaves the Jiang family.
Lu Qingyao pushed the wooden box containing the silver in front of Jiang Yunhu.
"Brother, I'll take this house. As for the money, you can keep it."
Jiang Yunhu pushed the silver back, saying, "No, how can we accept it?"
This was originally meant to repay her.
Even without today's incident, they would have had to pay the price sooner or later.
Liu Yuniang held her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, we were wrong before. We shouldn't have let you take the blame for that brat Jiang Yunze. I'll help you take the money back."
The debt has now been paid off.
After joining his younger siblings in the bamboo shoot business, he had no worries about food and clothing, and even had some left over.
She was content as long as her family was happy and harmonious.
I can no longer take advantage of my younger siblings.
It is truly not easy for a woman to be all alone with three children.
Every two months, medicinal herbs and rice are sent south, costing a lot of money.
How can one not feel heartbroken?
Lu Qingyao gently patted Liu Yuniang, whose eyes were red.
“Brother and sister-in-law, listen to me. I’ve seen that house. It’s right next to the government office, and it covers a large area. I estimate it’s worth about 130 to 150 taels of silver, which is more than enough to pay off your previous debts. You can keep the silver without worry…”
The houses in Qing Shi Town aren't expensive, but they're big, so buying one isn't cheap.
There are only so many wealthy families in this area.
It won't be easy to resell them now.
Besides, she can use it even if she takes it.
Money and houses.
Giving money to my elder brother's family would be more practical.
After all, such a large mansion requires someone to take care of the flowers, trees, and ponds, and then you need to buy maids and servants.
The expenses spent on servants, over a few years, might be enough to buy another house.
Although my elder brother's family is much better off now than before, they still have to maintain the house and employ too many servants.
That was still a bit extravagant.
"Brother and sister-in-law, please accept the money. Use it to renovate the house, and for your leg, take some more medicine to strengthen it. Don't be stingy... Also, buy two maids and servants. An old woman and a child both need someone to take care of them. The next few months will probably be quite busy..."
I'm quite busy!
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yunhu felt a great weight lifted from his heart.
He accepted the money.
"Sister-in-law, have you thought of some business deal again?"
Since May, fewer and fewer villagers have come to sell bamboo shoots.
He was so anxious that he couldn't sleep.
This person is used to being busy, and he feels at ease as long as he has money constantly flowing into his pocket.
But once I have some free time, I can't help feeling anxious.
But judging from her sister-in-law's calm and composed demeanor, she knew she had a plan...
Lu Qingyao smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, it's still about bamboo shoots..."
"This bamboo doesn't only produce shoots in spring and winter; there are also varieties that produce shoots in summer. Judging from the geography, climate, and soil of Qingshi Town, it is the most suitable place to plant all kinds of bamboo, including the Cizhu bamboo that produces shoots in summer..."
"Cizhu?"
Jiang Yunhu had some recollection of it.
The bamboo groves in Qingshi Town were all planted by the ancestors.
Various types of bamboo are also mixed in.
But there are very few Cizhu (芳竹).
In the past, few people picked bamboo shoots to sell, so no one paid attention to which month they were harvested.
Lu Qingyao nodded, "That's right, it's Cizhu..."
"The bamboo shoots of Cizhu are also known as August bamboo shoots. As the name suggests, they are bamboo shoots that are in season around August and are a summer vegetable... The harvesting season happens to be different from that of the moso bamboo shoots..."
midsummer.
The rainy season is beginning.
A light rain was falling.
But that still couldn't stop the villagers from heading into the mountains.
Because Lu Qingyao discovered a bamboo forest deep in the dense forest behind Taoxi Village.
Because ferocious wild animals often roam the deep forest, and the end of the forest leads to a cliff, many villagers hesitate to venture there.
But at this moment, villagers from Taoxi Village and the neighboring Xinghua Village worked together to dig a mountain road from Taoxi Village, bypassing Xinghua Village, towards Cizhulin.
There are no ferocious beasts, no cliffs.
Hidden in the mountain valley is a large bamboo forest.
In another month, it will be the perfect time to harvest bamboo shoots.
Besides bamboo shoots, mushrooms can also be picked this season.
The villagers all went up the mountain to look for mushrooms.
Because this year's mushrooms can also be sold for money...
Midsummer, late summer, early autumn...
Time flies.
Before we knew it, it was early autumn.
The vegetation is lush, and as far as the eye can see, everything is green.
It's raining and thundering.
Mushrooms sprout from the soil in the mountains and forests.
The peaches in Jiang Miaomiao's yard are ripe, hanging red on the tree.
The little baby sat under the tree eating a peach, his mouth and face covered in sweet peach juice.
She has grown several teeth and can eat fruit and gnaw on chicken legs.
But the drooling still continues.
A baby can sit, crawl, and stand up, and then they can start to walk while holding onto the wall.
Even though she was just a baby, she tried her best.
They are working very hard to learn about every necessary stage of life, and even faster than others.
The ten-month-old baby can talk and walk now...
Jiang Miaomiao was pleasantly surprised and helped Jiang Xiaobai to her feet.
Jiang Xiaobai has grown into a big wolf.
It grew even faster than Jiang Miaomiao, and no one dared to pet its fur anymore.
Except for Jiang Miaomiao.
She used Jiang Xiaobai as a support and as a horse to ride.
Then people saw a cute little baby with a small tuft of hair on his head riding on the back of a wolf, strolling around the village.
Wherever he went, the village dogs, chickens, and even little children would give him a wide berth.
Some curious little children thought it was a dog and wanted to go closer to investigate.
Jiang Xiaobai doesn't like to talk to people; it's a proud wolf.
If a clueless little child tries to touch it.
It bares its fangs and sneers, enough to scare a little baby to tears!
As a result, the little boy was grabbed by his parents and taken back. "You brat, that's a wolf, not a dog. If you touch it again, we'll eat you up!"
Then the little boy looked at his mother with a blank expression, "Then why wasn't Jiang Miaomiao eaten?"
His mother: "..."
Yes, how did Xiao Miaomiao manage to tame the wolf so easily?
The little guy actually raised it like a dog.
Of course, if any unscrupulous person dares to break into Jiang Miaomiao's house, that person will definitely suffer a terrible fate.
For example, a few masked men, who seemed to come from nowhere, loitered around her house in the middle of the night.
Hearing no movement inside, they climbed over the wall and entered.
The result was either broken arms or broken legs; they had to be carried out.
Many men tried to take advantage of the little girl, but they were all scared out of their wits by the wolf.
"Auntie... Feifei..."
Xiuxiu watched as the little girl, who had finished eating a peach under the tree, wobbled towards her.
With arms outstretched, the little tuft of hair on her head swayed back and forth.
Very cute.
He picked her up, spun her around, lifted her above his head, and let her fly.
"Giggle..."
The sound of a baby giggling came from the courtyard.
"Miaomiao, shall I take you to find your mother?"
"Okay, find Mom... find Brother..."
The house next to Jiang Miao's house has been converted into a two-courtyard house.
The place where bamboo shoots were harvested, dried, and pickled became the Jiang family mansion in Qingshi Town.
Later, her mother changed it to the Lu Mansion.
At this moment.
The courtyard was full of people.
Basket after basket of mushrooms, basket after basket of bamboo shoots.
Truckloads were being hauled to Jiangzhou.
