The resentment against the original owner was not only for this family, but also for the eldest family member and the old couple of the Xu family. Ever since the original owner sold the land, Xu Lanyin had never entered the eldest house's door again.

Xu Lan didn't care about children, so she said with a half-smile, "I don't want to eat your meat either."

"Humph, you can't even think of it." Xu Yuan raised his head, as arrogantly as a crowing rooster.

When the two brothers came out, Xu Lanzhou picked up Xu Lanzhou and went out with Xu Lanting. Huazi also followed them.

Xu Lanyin originally wanted to bake sweet potato cakes and steam a wild egg for Xu Lanzhou. They left and didn't move. In the past, whenever the two brothers were invited to dinner by the eldest brother, they would first bring a bowl of delicious food back to Mrs. Qin.

.Of course, the original owner definitely has no share in it.

Sure enough, more than two-quarters of an hour later, Xu Lanzhou came back with more than half a bowl of meatball soup and a steamed bun with mixed noodles. He watched Mrs. Qin finish eating and then walked out the door with the bowl in hand.

After Xu Lanzhou left, Mrs. Qin called Xu Lanyin in the room. She had half of the mixed-noodle steamed bun left and said, "Mom can't finish it. You can eat this half of the steamed bun." She added, "Don't be angry either.

It’s really what you did before that was so irritating.”

Xu Lanyin nodded. If the original owner did what he did, he would be beaten half to death or even beaten to death if left alone. She heated up a bowl of polenta leftover from noon and ate it with half a steamed bun.

After dinner, she went to discuss with Mrs. Qin again, "Mom, tomorrow I will go to Yefengling to collect more herbs and sell them the day after tomorrow. I know that I have caused great trouble, made life difficult for my family, and made my brother quit his job.

Study. I will find ways to make more money and buy back what I failed."

Yefengling is the tallest and largest mountain among the Oats Mountains. It takes about three-quarters of an hour to the west to get there, and there are more medicinal herbs there. The mountain behind Xiaozao Village is not high, with many trees and firewood, but not many medicinal herbs.

Xu Lanyin wanted to go to the county seat quickly to see if there were any opportunities to improve her family's living conditions, improve her own predicament, and sell or pawn the dowry.

Mrs. Qin looked at her daughter, whose childishness had not completely disappeared. Her eyes seemed much calmer than before. The relationship between mother and daughter had been very deep before. Just four years ago, she felt that Gu Wangchen was already fifteen years old and could copy books by himself.

Or write letters for others to earn some money. Except for what must be given, some money should not be paid out by the family. She also talked about her suspicions about Gu Wangchen. The daughter was unhappy, crying and making trouble, and she allowed her to reason.

Neither of them listened. From then on, the relationship between the two was no longer as close as before...

Now, why did the stupid girl suddenly figure it out?

Qin said, "There are few people in Yefengling. You should take Huazi with you when you go. Don't go up the mountain, and don't go too deep. As long as you figure it out and don't waste money and spend your family's energy in one place, your life will be better."

It will get better slowly."

Xu Lanyin nodded. For the first time in so many years, mother and daughter talked calmly.

Originally, she wanted to break off the engagement with Gu Wangchen, but she thought she couldn't be too hasty and the change couldn't happen too quickly. She had to find a suitable excuse.

Xu Lanyin got up at dawn the next morning.

She opened a door of the kang cabinet and took out a small earthen jar with a lid. When she opened the lid, she saw that there was not much medicinal powder inside, so she could only use it a dozen times without saving.

The medicinal powder was brought home by Xu Qingyan before. He had told his family that this medicinal powder could ward off wild animals, insects, and snakes. It was extremely precious and rare. They must use it sparingly. They were not allowed to tell anyone, including the eldest family. The original owner also treasured it.

, only used in sparsely populated mountains.

Xu Lanyin took a handful and put it into a bowl, mixed it with water, and sprinkled it on the clothes and shoes that were to be worn in the mountains.

Mrs. Qin and Xiao Zhengtai were still sleeping. After breakfast, she and Xu Lanzhou took three roasted sweet potatoes and took Hanako to Yefengling.

Hanako seemed to know where her master was going and ran ahead happily.

They walked north for a while and came to the path behind the village, where they saw a middle-aged woman in her late forties standing under a tree looking at her.

The woman was wearing a gray dress, a silver hairpin, and high cheekbones. She was Gu Wangchen's mother, Miao. The original owner called her Mrs. Gu. Since her son became a scholar, this woman has become cleaner than before.

It’s much more convenient and the clothes are much better.

Xu Lanyin's impression of Gu Wangchen was that he was handsome, elegant, and tall. He was not like his mother at all. He probably looked like his father, or it was inherited from another generation. It was said that the great-grandfather of the Gu family had been a scholar. The original owner only needed one

When I see my handsome fiancé, my heart starts to flutter, thinking that everything he says and does is impeccably beautiful.

Xu Lanyin didn't have any good impressions of Mrs. Gu. She must be up to no good if she was standing here waiting for him.

She originally wanted to avoid Grandma Gu, but Grandma Gu greeted her first, "Yin'er, are you going to Yefengling again to collect herbs?"

Mrs. Gu knew that Xu Lanyin took this road to go to Yefengling. She wished that the girl would go there every day so that she could sell more money. She had been waiting here every day for the past few days, but she didn't know why the girl only went there today.

Once the old lady calls the original owner "Yin'er" and smiles like a bun, she means she wants something. If she doesn't want something, she will call her "Yin'er" and her attitude is very arrogant.

Xu Lanyin immediately became alert, stood down and asked stiffly, "What do you want from me?"

Mrs. Gu was stunned. This girl was unusual today. If she saw her normally, she would run over with her feet turned on the back of her head and laugh so hard that she couldn't even straighten her waist.

Mrs. Gu still complained that her son was too soft-hearted. She only let this silly girl sell six acres of land, and it would be better to sell all eight acres of land. But her son said that they had to leave a way for them to survive, but there was no way for mortals to survive.

Easy to cause trouble.

The son took all the money away. She had been talkative these days and wanted to eat meat but had no money to buy it. But before her son left, he warned her a lot that she was not allowed to worry about the silly girl asking for meat anymore. She just had to spread some words.

It's best to ask that girl to find some pears for her to eat.

The son didn't go into details, but Mrs. Gu thought that her son wanted a good omen, that is, the two of them could successfully separate. Her son was successful, so how could that silly girl be worthy of him? Mrs. Gu wished that they would get divorced as soon as possible.

Some separation.

Xu Lizheng's pears had just ripened and were more expensive than meat. She hurried to find the silly girl. No matter what the silly girl did, she had to find some pears for herself to eat.

Mrs. Gu walked up to Xu Lanyin and said with a smile, "Yin'er, Wangchen has been to the provincial capital for nearly ten days, and I have brought him all the family money. My throat has been dry these days, and I even had a nosebleed.

Ouch, I feel bad, I want to eat pears." After saying that, he beat his chest in discomfort and wrinkled his old face.

Does this mean she wants money to buy pears? Xu Lan was so angry that she and her family couldn't even afford food. Her younger brother went into the mountains to cut trees at such a young age, and all the money was given to them, but he still had the nerve to ask for money.
