Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was just that they would be using more oil.

Ye Muyu felt that she was saving up to buy a shop.

Of course, this had to be temporary. She had to continue working hard to earn money.

Although Ye Muyu was not a money-grubber, she still pursued a better life.

Chu Ziluo suddenly thought of the herbs that she had been selling recently. She smiled and said, “Mother, if I find any herbs that can be sold in the future, I promise I won’t let them go.”

“We don’t have any herbs at home now. It’s a pity that we don’t have a hillside.”

Ye Muyu recalled that when they split up from the old residence, Chu Heng did not get the hill, but he got more land. It was fair.

That was also because there were fewer taxes in the mountains and more taxes in the fields. At that time, Madam Liu and Chu Zhiwen had the idea of reducing the taxes as much as possible.

Chu Heng did not say anything from the beginning to the end and did not interfere in the matter.

Perhaps it was because of this that Chu Lin and Chu Cai were given quite a number of mountainous areas. They had less land, so they might have wanted to plant on Chu Heng’s land later, but the land was in Chu Heng’s hands.

Of course, Chu Heng also used his own money to buy a hillside land later.

Perhaps because both families were living well, Chu Heng had been participating in the imperial examination and had not given up. Moreover, he did not need Chu Zhiwen and the other two elders to pay for it. Chu Lin and Chu Cai could see the ability of this younger brother and gave up on this matter.

As time passed, the three brothers insisted on splitting the property accorc to what they had said before, and there were no more arguments.

They had thought that the mountains were useless and that they could at most get some wood to save some money when they built their house. Who knew that this time, there would be Wild Fan flowers and fruits, and Kudzu roots there.

Chu Lin and Chu Cai’s family had a lot of income, and each of them had a feeling of unexpected wealth.

Chu Xing left Chu Heng’s house and went straight home.

There was no one at home at the moment. Even his second sister-in-law had carried her two-year-old daughter up the hill to pick Wild Fan flowers and fruits, and other medicinal herbs.

Chu Xing thought for a moment. He was afraid that the cake would spoil, so he cut half of it and left it in the hall. He divided the other half into six pieces and took them onto the mule cart. Then, he drove the mule cart to the side of the field.

The village chief of Xingshui Village had many trees, especially at the edge of some fields. This had also become the place where the villagers usually worked and rested.

Chu Xing drove the mule cart to the main road.

Only then did he walk over with a pot of tea and the cake.

“Dad, have some rest. This is the pastry that Sister-in-law Heng brought back for me to show respect. Sister-in-law said that this pastry wouldn’t last for half a day, so I was afraid that it would spoil, so I brought half over.”

“Have some tea after you eat.”

The farming season was not over yet.

Every year, he would be busy for half a month.

Chu Fengsheng stopped what he was doing and straightened his back. He was not surprised to hear that Chu Xing had gone to Chu Heng’s house again.

He put down the hoe and walked to the tree. He picked up the teapot and drank a few mouthfuls to quench his thirst.

“Your sister-in-law asked you to go to the county again?”

“This time, sister-in-law asked me to help sell some medicinal herbs. Recently, everyone in the village knows a few kinds of medicinal herbs. I think everyone can make a small fortune,” Chu Xing said with a smile.

Chu Fengsheng said, “Do your best to help your sister-in-law. She’s a rational person. There are always benefits when you help her. If it’s convenient for you, she won’t force you either.”

“Father, I know. Sister-in-law has a good personality now and treats me well. I’m not so stupid that I don’t even know this.” Chu Xing smiled.

Chu Fengsheng shook his head. Seeing that his son was not immersed in the original impression of Madam Ye, he was relieved.

“Dad, quickly eat it. This thing really can’t be kept for long..”
