After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

733 Soul Returning Herb

“You’re still lying! She’s already gone to the hospital to get her injuries checked. Otherwise, how do you think she can send me a divorce agreement directly! Even if the Xia family has everything under their control, they still need to have real evidence. If you hadn’t hit Xia He, she wouldn’t have been able to divorce me!” Kong Lu said angrily.

“Then what should we do now?” Old Madam Kong asked as she looked at Kong Lu nervously.

“What should we do? What else can we do? The Xia family has already taken back this house and the apartment allocated by my workplace is gone. I’m leaving for the highlands tomorrow. You should pack up and go back to our hometown. I still have to help you and my younger brothers pay off the debts every month. You’re on your own now,” Kong Lu said.

Old Madam Kong looked at Kong Lu reluctantly. She used to have 100 dollars a month for living expenses. How did it get to a situation where she could no longer live in the house and her living expenses were gone.

“I’m not going back!” Kong Li said as she tugged at Old Madam Kong’s sleeve.

Her second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law in the countryside were both very difficult people. She could not win against them at all. If she went back, she would only be bullied. She had lived a good life for so many years and did not want to go back.

“What else do you want to do if you don’t go back!” Kong Lu said angrily.

“Elder brother, think of another way. If not, why don’t you send us some money every month. We can rent a room in the city,” Kong Li said.

Kong Lu looked at Kong Li in disbelief. These two had caused his family to be broken up and they still expected him to think of a solution for them. Were they still a family?

“Go home. I’ll give you five dollars a month for your living expenses. My two brothers have not taken care of our mother for so many years. It’s time for them to show their filial piety. Also, return the money you owe Xia He as soon as possible. I heard from the leader that Xia He’s brother is searching for evidence. If you don’t return the money, you’ll go to jail. I don’t have any money left. You’re on your own.” After saying that, Kong Lu left the place with his things.

Old Madam Kong and Kong Li broke down and cried loudly. They also started to pack their things and prepared to leave.

After Xia He was done with her divorce proceedings, she gave Qiao Mei a call, but no one picked up. Today, after Qiao Mei sent the children to school, she went into the mountains with Qiao Qiang.

They usually went into the mountains very early and would return early in the afternoon. Every time, they would only carry half a basket of things and never more than that.

The villagers were understanding of the fact that there was only an elderly man and a pregnant woman in their family, so they did not need to work in the village. They did not get any work points, so this was considered fair to everyone.

However, it was now the autumn harvest season and there were treasures everywhere in the mountains. The other villagers went to work during the day and did not have time to go to the mountains to pick all these. If Qiao Mei and her grandfather took everything, it would inevitably make people jealous. Therefore, they would deliberately take a long detour at noon before they carried their harvest home.

Naturally, there were less things to be harvested in the afternoon. If anyone went up the mountain during this hour and saw that Qiao Mei did not harvest much, they naturally would not say anything.

“Grandfather, these chestnuts are quite big this year. I suppose we can sell them for a fair bit of money,” Qiao Mei said.

“That’s right. Look at the many good things in the mountains. I also see many medicinal herbs. Look at this grass, do you recognize it?” Qiao Qiang pointed at a green plant on the ground and said with a smile.

There were also small yellow flowers growing on it and it looked no different from weeds. Qiao Mei really could not recognize it.

“What is this? I’ve never seen it before!” Qiao Mei said.

Qiao Qiang tugged at his pants and slowly squatted down. “Look, this is called Dendrobium. You don’t recognize it, right? I heard about it from someone in the army a long time ago. This thing is very valuable. It also has another name, the Soul Returning Herb. Isn’t it interesting?”

The name “Soul Returning Herb” sounded like something that could only be found in martial arts novels. He did not expect it to really exist. The effects were probably different.

“Grandfather, take a look around and see if there are any other herbs. Let’s pick them all and sell them to that guy from the He family at a high price. If he doesn’t want them, there will be others who will be willing to buy them!” Qiao Mei said.

Qiao Qiang observed his surroundings slowly and found many herbs in the end. Every one of them was priceless. It seemed that this was really a treasure mountain.

Qiao Mei did not know where these herbs came from. It was possible that because she had been cultivating ginseng here often, it had caused the soil quality of this mountain to change and allow precious herbs to grow and emerge one after another.

Fortunately, the villagers here did not know such things and they all thought that it was weeds. Otherwise, what Qiao Mei did would soon be exposed.
