Chapter 763: Down the Mountain

Caravans usually chose goods that were quite different from each other to earn the difference in price.

It was just that the journey was arduous and risky.

Fresh food like the wood ear was a good rarity when transported to the north.

Since Chu Heng had intervened, Du Heng was not afraid that the Xiang family’s wood ears would not be able to sell, so he naturally would not interfere.

“Cousin Heng, is there too much wood ear in our firewood mountain?” asked Xiang Ling-er softly.

“Too little.”

Xiang Ling’er was originally afraid that if she gave her wood ears to Chu Heng and they would not sell, would Cousin Heng lose money? She had already thought of a few answers in her heart, but she did not expect Chu Heng’s answer, which decisively indicated that she was overthinking.

Ye Muyu could not help but smile when she saw her confused expression. “Ling ‘er, don’t worry. Not to mention your family’s wood ears, but the whole village doesn’t have that many.”

“Really?” Xiang Ling ‘er was delighted. She hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell Ye Muyu what she was thinking. “Cousin-in-law, is Cousin Heng willing to buy the wood ears of the other villagers?”

“I will teach them how to dry the wood ears.”

“Aren’t you angry that the people in the village were indifferent to you being taken away by the Wang family?” Ye Muyu asked curiously.

Xiang Ling’er shook her head. “Cousin-in-law, everyone treats me quite well usually. However, the one who’s looking for trouble is Landlord Wang. If I offend him, I’m afraid that they won’t be given any of the food farmed in their land to the villagers.”

“When winter comes, everyone might starve to death.”

“My life is my life, and the lives of their wives and children are also their lives. Naturally, they can’t kill themselves just to save me.”

“Furthermore, when Father and Mother went to Landlord Wang’s house, the villagers went with them. However, Landlord Wang’s people came to the village and warned every household.”

“This time, it’s not just our family who ate laxatives. There are also many uncles in the village.”

“It’s just that after taking the laxatives, they all went home. You just didn’t see them.”

Ye Muyu sighed and thought to herself, ‘That’s right. You have to do what you can to save someone. You can’t kill your own family just to save someone else. If there really is such a person, I’m worried that the other party has a premeditated plan.’

It was normal to not be afraid of sacrificing oneself to help others, but how could it be normal to sacrifice one’s wife and children to save others?

It was not in front of righteousness.

“Sure, you can go and inform the whole village. I’ll teach you how to dry the wood ears.” Ye Muyu thought that since the other villagers were going to sell the wood ears, she might as well let them owe the Xiang family a favor from the start.

“But I will go back and discuss this with your parents. You don’t have to worry about the specifics.”

“Cousin-in-law, I’ll seriously learn how to dry and plant the wood ears,” Xiang Ling ‘er said with a smile.

“Not bad.”

While they were talking, Xiang Ling’er and Ye Muyu had already found some fungus.

Not long after, Fuan also returned. After spending fifteen minutes packing the wood ears and preparing a basket, the few of them went down the mountain together.

They had just walked into the Xiang family’s house when Chu Xingjun, Xiang Zhifu, and the others came over.

They had severe diarrhea and were exhausted. They even needed crutches to walk.

Seeing them return, they were relieved.

“Ah Yu, you’re back? Are the woodears in the mountains okay? We’ll go and get it together tomorrow. It’ll be back very soon. You guys should be resting at home.” Chu Xingjun asked gently.

“Eldest Aunt, don’t worry. Take care of your body. There’s no end to work. I’m free anyway.”
