Chapter 121: Spread

She was willing to respect her elders, but she did not want to have an elder restricting her in the future.

“Third Sister-in-law, Mother, you’re back. The weather is really hot. What were you talking about just now?” Madam Zhang and Chu Qingxiang coincidentally returned.

“Mother bought me a bucket of milk,” Ye Muyu said calmly. “I was just asking about the price.”

“Can it really cure illnesses?” Madam Zhang was a little surprised, but she said calmly, ‘Mother, how much is this milk? From what Third Sister-in-law said, it’s to nourish the body. When the body is well, won’t the medicine be more effective?”

Ye Muyu was not surprised by Madam Zhang’s words. She lowered her eyes slightly. She had seen through her sister-in-law’s shrewdness from the very beginning. Therefore, she did not want to have too many interests involved with her.

It was best for them to live in peace now.

Madam Liu’s mouth moved. Seeing Ye Muyu’s silent expression, she didn’t hide it anymore, “It was 50 copper coins for a bucket, but they didn’t say how much it costs per catty.”

Ye Muyu was a little surprised. It seemed that the price of milk was not very expensive. That bucket was at least 10 catties, which was only five coins per catty.

Ye Muyu gave the copper coins to Madam Liu.

Madam Liu did not say anything and accepted it.

Once they finished the tea, they boarded the mule cart.

When they returned to the village, Ye Muyu and Chu Ziluo got out of the car first and brought the things they bought today into the house.

After that, the mule cart brought Madam Liu and the other two to the old mansion.

After alighting from the mule cart, Madam Liu did not forget to give Chu Xing five copper coins for the travel expenses.

When Madam Zhang saw this, she hurriedly gestured for Chu Qingxiang to give it too.

After Chu Xing drove the mule cart away, Madam Zhang said, “Mother, I saw that Third Sister-in-law sold those medicinal herbs today. They are worth a lot of money. Should we go to the forest to see if there are any?

“Why not? Such an easy way to earn money, we can’t lose it.” Madam Liu was not stupid. As long as she had those three herbs, she could earn a small sum of money by selling them. She could make up for her family expenses. How could she not be happy?

Madam Zhang was even happier. “Mother, it seems that our Chu clan is going to have good luck. In the future, we might be able to sell it for a sum of silver every year. Just a vine alone is not something we need to worry about.”

“Indeed. Call your father and the others back at noon and tell them the good news.” Madam Liu was also happy and did not care about Madam Zhang’s little tricks.

In less than a day, the entire Chu family knew that the three herbs could be sold for money.

For example, Wild Fan flowers and fruits and Solomon’s Seal could grow in Ye Muyu’s wasteland, which meant that the climate was suitable. Naturally, they could grow in other mountainous areas, but no one knew what they were usually.

After the clan found out, when Ye Muyu brought Chu Ziluo out to pick the remaining Wild Fan flowers and Solomon’s Seal, she saw many women in the clan walking toward the mountains of their respective families. They were all carrying baskets and looking for medicinal herbs.

They would even free up their hands during the busy farming season.

Ye Muyu could not help but admire the diligence of her clan, especially the girls who had been learning needlework at home to prepare for the female arts competition. Now, they had gone out to help pick the herbs.

Solomon’s Seal was very rare and could basically be ignored, but Ye Muyu knew that there were indeed many Wild Fan flowers and fruits growing in this mountainous area.

However, according to the yield of a single tree, there would be at least four to five catties. If there were a little more, they could also earn two to three taels of silver.

Other than that, there were also the Kudzu roots.

Selling it as a medicinal herb was indeed a bit of a loss, but if it could be made into Kudzu powder, it could also be sold as food..
