Chapter 11: Can Tangtang Make Money to Support Me?
just asked a question, it doesn't matter.""She...she..." Mrs. Xiao was still clearly agitated, "Tang'er, you don't understand, she can't think about Jiang Qingyang, she can't, absolutely not."..."......"An Xuetang was taken aback, then smiled, "Ah Jing would agree."
She was just a country girl, but through her observations, he estimated that her identity wasn't simple.
As for the weight of her freedom versus the value of his life, she was well aware of the answer.
Mo Yunjing's black eyes stared at her, not knowing what he was thinking. After a moment, he nodded slightly, "Good."
An Xuetang chuckled, she extended her hand, "Nice to cooperate with you."
Mo Yunjing paused for a moment before reaching out to shake her hand. Her small hand was slender without an ounce of fat, so thin it made one's heart ache.
An Xuetang quickly withdrew her hand, "Ah Jing, you wait at home nicely, I'm going up the mountain."
"Why climb the mountain"
"I'll find some more herbs for you and dig up some wild vegetables. After all, we have limited silver, so we need to think of ways to make money."
Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes, "So, Tangtang is going to earn money to support me"
"Yes," An Xuetang waved at him, "Ah Jing, be a good boy, I'll be back soon."
Once she was done speaking, she walked out the door. Mo Yunjing stared at the direction she disappeared in for a long time, unable to recover.
Because she had experience trekking into the mountains, this time An Xuetang walked very quickly. After entering the mountain, she found a lot of herbs, although they were all worthless, but An Xuetang was skilled.
She firmly believes that these herbs, after being processed and combined by her, will achieve the greatest effect.
After harvesting most of the herbs, An Xuetang found many mushrooms, wood ears, and bamboo shoots.
She brought a basket full of things. On her way down the mountain, she was lucky enough to stumble upon a rabbit burrow.
She took them all in one go. The three rabbits in the burrow were tied together, and she just carried them down the mountain.
When she went down the mountain, she didn't purposely avoid people, so many women who had gone up the mountain to dig for wild vegetables saw the rabbit in her hands, and their eyes lit up.
"I said to Wang, are you having rabbit meat at your place today" Liu Pozi, the village gossip queen, intentionally asked this question when she saw Wang coming back from the fields with vegetables.
Wang was taken aback. “I said, Auntie Liu, where did we get rabbit meat”
"Hey, don't you have any rabbits at home I just saw your big girl catch three rabbits and take them down the mountain. Didn't she bring one back for you"
Wang's face changed, "That little shrew can catch rabbits Don't deceive me."
Liu Pozi's face darkened, "Why would I lie to you I saw it with my own eyes, your Ah Tang brought back three rabbits! Each one was fat and plump, just looking at them made my mouth water. I even thought she might bring one back for you."
Wang's face kept changing colors. Seeing how seriously Liu's wife spoke, she believed her eight out of ten.
I don't know what came over her, but Wang rushed home.
Liu Pozi looked at Wang Shi's retreating figure with disdain, then spat at her back, "Bah! Look at this lowly woman rushing around like that."
Wang's side, carrying the dishes back home, that big voice started shouting, "Liu's, you bitch, get your ass out here!"
Liú was startled by the shout while boiling water in the kitchen. She quickly ran out, "Mother, what's wrong"
"What's wrong with me You vixen, are you trying to have that little slut all to yourself"
Liu's face was filled with confusion. "What do you mean, Mother"
"Stop acting stupid! Go get that money-grubbing bitch back the three rabbits!"
"Mother, where did Ah Tang get the rabbit from"
Besides, Ah Tang has already been sold by her. Even if Ah Tang really caught a rabbit, it wouldn't have anything to do with this family anymore, but she wouldn't dare say that.
"You sly vixen, what's all this talk for Just go if you're going!"
Saying that, Wang slapped Liu and pushed her out.
Liu shi didn't want to go; she didn't have the face. On her daughter's wedding day, it was she who had administered the strong medicine. Now, Tang must surely hate her.
"Aren't you leaving yet" Wang shouted angrily, her expression as if she were about to eat him.
"Mother, Ah Tang is already married, she can't give anything to her family anymore."
"What do you say" Mrs. Wang exploded, "If you don't go today, get out of the An family! I raised that bitch for eighteen years, what's wrong with her offering me a few rabbits"
Liu completely dared not refute.
In the end, Wang still took Liu to Mo Yunjing's house at the foot of the mountain.
"Ah Jing, would you like chicken or rabbit for dinner tonight" An Xue Tang asked Mo Yun Jing with a happy smile upon returning from the mountain.
Mo Yunjing looked at the three wild rabbits in her hands, a smirk playing on his lips, "Tangtang is so amazing."
"Of course, I was lucky. I stumbled upon a rabbit burrow as I walked," An Xuetang said, freeing the rabbit from its bonds and placing it in the large cage Yunliu had made for it.
"Ajing, quickly say, what do you want to eat"
How's the rabbit meat
"Okay, I'll make a spicy rabbit meat dish for Ah Jing tonight."
Today, in the mountains, she found wild red peppers and picked a lot of them.
Mo Yunjing was helping An Xue Tang feed the chickens and rabbits in the yard, while An Xue Tang cleaned up after the rabbits.
Looking at her clean and swift knife work when dealing with the rabbit, Mo Yunjing's eyes darkened. He was becoming increasingly interested in An Xuetang.
An Xue Tang had just finished dealing with the rabbit when suddenly two people rushed into the courtyard.
Upon looking up, wasn't this her step-grandmother and step-mother
What are they doing here now
Wang actually didn't want to come, she was afraid of Yunliu. But when she thought of the three rabbits, she couldn't bear to give up.
After she came in, she glanced around but didn't see Yunliu. She only saw Mo Yunjing sitting in his wheelchair.
Mo Yunjing was just a cripple, unable to even stand on his own. The Wang clan didn't even look at Mo Yunjing, let alone clearly see his face.
As for Liu Shi, when her gloomy eyes met with Mo Yun Jing's, she almost fainted from fright.
At this moment, Wang's eyes were greedy. She saw the wild chickens and rabbits in the yard, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
She had never seen so many wild animals before. In the village, people were lucky to find one every ten or eight days, but here there were so many.
Wang lifted her foot and was about to catch a wild chicken or rabbit.
Liu quickly pulled at her sleeve, "Mother, I... let's go back." Her son-in-law looked so terrifying.
Wang threw her off, looking at An Xue Tang with an expression of "I am the only one in the world," and said, "Get me a few rabbits and a few wild chickens."
An Xuetang was almost amused by her matter-of-fact demeanor. "Grandmother, are you going to buy pheasants and rabbits with An Xuetang"
"Buy" Wang's sharp voice echoed, "I'm your grandmother, don't you want to give me a few chickens and rabbits You dare ask me for money"
"So is Grandmother trying to sponge off us"
"You cheap slut, what do you mean by begging for money" Wang glared at An Xue Tang viciously.
Mo Yunjing heard her call An Xuetang by those three words, his eyes as cold as an abyss swept over.
Wang could only feel a chill run down her spine, but greed had overcome everything at that moment. She seemed to see only those wild chickens and rabbits.his kindness, so it meant that from now on, their Houfu could no longer use past favors to ask Mo Yunjing to do things for them.Mrs. Hou glanced at Xiaoqin, and now she was relieved. She hadn't really...
