Chapter 798: Disappointment



Chapter 798: Disappointment


Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


However, once Chu Heng was disappointed and was no longer willing to accept someone, even if they cried and begged him, he would not be soft-hearted at all.


Unfortunately, Wang Shichu did not know that he was destined to be depressed for a long time in the future.


Over here…


Ye Muyu, Chu Xingjun, and the others were in the central room.


Chu Xingjun held her hand and patted it gently with some reluctance. “Ah Yu, it’s been hard on you and Ah Heng this time. Without you, Eldest Aunt wouldn’t even know how to take advantage of the mountain, let alone earn money.”


“Eldest Aunt, you’re welcome. I’ve always wanted the poor to live a better life. You’re still relatives, so naturally, I’ll help if I can.” Ye Muyu smiled.


“Ah Yu and Ah Heng are so kind. You’ll definitely be rewarded.” Chu Xingjun smiled lovingly.


“I look forward to Ah Heng becoming an official.”


“Thank you for your kind words, Eldest Aunt.” Ye Muyu knew that Chu Heng’s goal was to become an official. She had felt this very clearly in the past two days. She had a strange feeling about it.


Chu Heng clearly had not become an official yet, but he knew the way of being an official very well. He even had his unique aura.


“Mother, I’m here.” The eldest daughter-in-law of the Xiang family walked over with a bag of mushrooms.


Chu Xingjun took out a cloth bag and handed it to Ye Muyu. “Ah Yu, these are some mountain products that I picked up previously. There are different mushrooms inside. Take a look. It’s delicious to stew soup with.”


“Eldest Aunt’s family doesn’t have anything rare. Take this thing. It’s not worth much.”


“Oh right, there’s also some sugar cane here. Eat the roots inside. They’re very sweet. Give them to the children as snacks.”


“These days, the villagers have all gone to the mountains and caught a lot of pheasants. Although this thing isn’t delicious, it’s more or less a wild game. It tastes different from domestic chickens.”


“Oh right, there’s also a pigeon. Look, it’s still alive. It’s a gray pigeon. I heard that the rich families in the county eat it and it’s good for your health.” Chu Xingjun took out all the things she had prepared beforehand and handed them to Ye Muyu.


The daughters-in-law of the Xiang family helped to pack the bags.


Ye Muyu said, “Eldest Aunt, you don’t have to prepare so much. Leave it for your family. The children at home can eat too. I have them all in my area.”


“Even if you have them in your area, it’s hard to catch them. This is your cousin’s kind intention. Please accept it.” Chu Xingjun insisted.


Ye Muyu saw that she could not reject it, so she accepted it helplessly.


“Old man, come here.” Chu Xingjun waved at him.


Xiang Zhifu walked over with a hoe. Chu Xingjun said, “Go and dig some ginger from the ground later.”


That’s right, the Xiang family did grow ginger, but not much. They planted it in the vegetable field next to the house to keep out the cold in winter.


September was the time to dig for ginger. The Xiang family valued the harvest of the land, so they planted ginger very well.


Ye Muyu had asked Chu Heng’s caravan to bring back some ginger a while ago. They were waiting for the seedlings to be planted in January, but that would be next year.


“Uncle, you don’t have to give me too much of this ginger. Keep it. Next year, you can grow more and sell it in the county.” Ye Muyu reminded.


Xiang Zhifu patted his head. “I’ve heard that the rich families in the county usually buy ginger. However, I thought that they wouldn’t want things from small farmers like us, so I didn’t think of selling it.”


“Also, these are only enough for my family, so I don’t plan to sell them.”


“However, since we can earn some money from the wood ears this year, we can buy more cotton. We don’t need to use so much ginger.”


“Other than that, we don’t have much land at home, so we can’t split the land to grow ginger. The whole family has to eat, and we don’t dare to gamble with food. What if they don’t buy it?” Xiang Zhifu smiled helplessly.
