Chapter 111 Villagers Come to Help
Seeing that the old man had completely rejected the idea, the second uncle's family became even more smug.
Uncle Su glanced at Su Li sideways, his eyes full of mockery and disdain, and muttered under his breath:
"All he does all day is cause trouble. He doesn't even know his own limitations. He wants to drag the fourth brother along with him without considering whether this is even feasible."
Mrs. Ma chimed in, "The old man has spoken, what trouble can she possibly cause? We can't let her run wild in our family."
Su Qingfeng looked at Su Li with a face full of guilt, his lips moved as if he wanted to say something.
But Su Li turned her head away and didn't even look at him.
Seeing this, Su Qingfeng felt even more guilty and lowered his head even further.
Su Li didn't actually blame her father; she just felt she shouldn't have had any expectations of him, since her father had always been firmly controlled by her grandparents.
For some reason, the story from the Su family dinner table got out.
The next day, the villagers took the initiative to approach Su Li.
Su Li was completely stunned when she saw Sister Li, Aunt Wang, and their wives and daughters behind them.
She hesitated before asking, "This...you really intend to work with me to manage the medicinal herb field?"
Sister-in-law Li smiled and quickly stepped forward, took Su Li's hand, and said warmly:
"Oh dear, we heard about what happened to your family yesterday. Planting medicinal herbs is something that few people in the entire Great Wei Dynasty have ever considered, let alone in our surrounding villages. Which pharmacy doesn't get its herbs from the mountains? But since you're willing to do it, we'll trust you."
"To be honest, we also want to make money. We would be lying if we said we weren't envious of how much money you made at the docks before. Now that you're finally starting a new business, we want to seize this opportunity as well."
Sister-in-law Li looked at Su Li with sincere eyes, making no attempt to hide her thoughts.
That's right, she just wants to make money.
She was just an ordinary farm woman; what way did she have to make money?
Su Li was different. Opening a shop at the dock was something no girl in the village, let alone the surrounding area, would dare to do.
But Su Li not only did it, she did it very successfully.
What can they do besides watch from the sidelines?
They admired Su Li from the bottom of their hearts and always wanted to follow in her footsteps and get a share of the profits.
After a moment's thought, Su Li agreed.
She wouldn't feel at ease if Sister Li and Aunt Wang came to her under the guise of helping out.
But now that Sister Li was open and honest, and had spoken her mind, she felt that Sister Li and Aunt Wang were both down-to-earth and sincere people, and that cooperation was a win-win situation.
Grandma Su is unaware of the collaboration with the villagers yet.
That night, Grandma Su lay in bed, still complaining to Grandpa about Su Li.
“Old man, tell me, Su Li is getting more and more wild. How come our family has produced such a disobedient brat after all these years? She’s really ruining the family’s reputation! All she does all day long is cause trouble. She doesn’t even think about our family and just does all sorts of unreliable things.”
Grandpa Su sat to the side, slowly puffing on his pipe, his eyes flickering slightly.
Who said no.
No matter how much money she earned, she only gave two taels of silver to her family each month, and she didn't care about her family at all.
Although he didn't say it aloud, he tacitly approved of Grandma Su's behavior, only offering a few perfunctory words of advice.
"Forget it, the child is grown up and has her own ideas. Let's not worry too much about her and let her be."
Upon hearing this, Grandma Su became even more enthusiastic.
"Let her be? That won't do! If she ruins the family's reputation, how will we ever be able to hold our heads high in the village again? No, we have to find a chance to teach her a lesson and let her know who's in charge of this family!"
Grandpa Su sighed helplessly and fell silent, letting Grandma Su chatter on and on...
Ever since Su Li made up her mind to cooperate with the villagers on the herb field, she wanted to share everything she knew without reservation.
She understood that only by working together and grasping the key points could the herb field yield a good harvest.
So one sunny morning, he gathered all the villagers by the field.
Aunt Wang and Sister Li flanked Su Li, listening attentively to her words while occasionally exchanging puzzled glances.
Both of them were wondering to themselves, how could this young girl know so much about herbs?
Finally, Sister Li couldn't hold back any longer. She frowned, and with a mixture of curiosity and doubt, asked:
"Su Li, you speak so eloquently, we're all stunned. How do you know so much about these herbs? Do you have some kind of divine guidance?"
Aunt Wang couldn't help but chime in, "Yes, yes, we've lived most of our lives and still only have a superficial understanding of these herbs, but you know everything about them. It's truly astonishing."
A gentle smile appeared on Su Li's face, her eyes full of sincerity. She waved her hand lightly and said:
"There's no divine guidance involved. I just like to go to the mountains in my daily life and pay more attention to the growing environment of these herbs. Gradually, I figured out some tricks of the trade."
As she spoke, she bent down, picked up a "deer-head grass" from the ground, held it high, and said to the crowd:
"Look, this is deer antler grass. We used to be able to dig it up by the mountain streams. The mountain streams are humid, and there are many trees around to block the sunlight, so it doesn't get much sun all year round, but it has plenty of water."
"Therefore, when we transplant it into the field, we must pay special attention to shading it. It is best to plant it under larger plants, so that it can provide natural shade."
"Also, you must make sure to provide enough water, since it usually grows near water and has a relatively high water requirement!"
The villagers nodded in agreement, some even whispering among themselves.
Seeing this, Su Li picked up another "fire-reducing herb" and continued her explanation:
"Look at this fire-reducing grass. It grows on hillsides. Hillsides have good drainage and don't easily accumulate water, so when we water it, we have to control the amount of water. We can't water it too much, otherwise the roots will easily rot. Only in this way can it grow well."
Aunt Wang and Sister Li exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with amazement and admiration.
Aunt Wang sighed inwardly, thinking how amazing Su Li was. She was so meticulous in her work and had such a thorough understanding of herbs. No wonder she could succeed at everything she did. This time, she had finally found the right person to follow.
Grandma Su is truly blind to the value of her granddaughter. She doesn't cherish such a good granddaughter and instead criticizes her indirectly every day. She's really foolish!
"Su Li, you're such a meticulous child! You know the properties of so many herbs so well; even we older folks can't compare to you. No wonder you can succeed at everything. We feel at ease working with you!"
"That's right! Su Li, if you hadn't been willing to guide us, how would we have learned these tricks? From now on, you tell us what to do, and we'll do it!"
Su Li's cheeks flushed slightly, and she waved her hand modestly, saying:
“We’re all from the same village, so we should definitely share the benefits. As long as we work together, this herb field will surely yield a great harvest.”
