Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Old Madam was stunned. Li Muyan continued, “You look down on Miss Ning for being born in a farming family, but you don’t know that she went home without hesitation to get that priceless 100-year-old ginseng when she heard that you were critically ill.”

Old Madam muttered softly, “That’s because she knows that our family is rich. That ginseng can be sold for a high price.”

Li Muyan was tired. “Why do you have to distort other people’s good intentions?”

Looking at the foul atmosphere in the room, Li Muyan sighed. “Continue brewing the medicine. If Old Madam wants to smash it, let her smash it. Brew it again until she’s willing to drink it.”

“All the medicines are the best. The expenses are from my private vault.”

Old Madam didn’t look like she was going to admit defeat with a straight face. Li Muyan continued, “In addition, from today onwards, Old Madam has to recuperate. From now on, no matter who you want to invite back to the residence, you have to get my permission. No one is allowed to disturb the Ning Family without my instructions. Also, Nanny Chen is old. It’s time for you to return to your house and enjoy your family life. I’ll leave Grandma to Nanny Zhao.”

Old Madam’s eyes widened. “What do you mean?”

Li Muyan walked out with his hands behind his back. “Grandmother, I’m the head of the Li Family.”

After that, no matter who came to plead for leniency, they were forcefully stopped outside the door by Li Muyan. Li Muyan’s personal servant asked worriedly, “What if Old Madam still refuses to take the medicine?”

Li Muyan frowned deeply. After a long time, he said helplessly, “She won’t. She will drink it after it hurts.”

Old Madam Li had never suffered all these years. However, after smashing two cups of medicine, she was tortured by the faint pain in various parts of her body until she seemed to have lost half her life. When she was waiting for the third bowl of medicine, her sweat wet the bed, leaving behind a sour smell.

The servant came to report, “Young Master, Old Madam has taken her medicine.”

Li Muyan put down the gift list in his hand. “Send these to the Ning Family.”

The servant took a look and was secretly shocked. Young Master really valued Miss Ning. However, the gift sent this time was actually returned. The servant scratched his head and said, “Miss Ning said that the silver for the ginseng has already been given.”

Li Muyan sighed. “Miss Ning is really angry.”

That was true. Xiaoxiao was not made of clay. She was kind enough to help, but Old Madam Li took her down a notch. She would definitely be unhappy. Not every “sorry” could get an “it’s alright” in return. Last time, it was He Ruhuan. This time, it was Old Madam. What about next time? Would it be Li Muyan’s parents and aunties next time?

It seemed like the collaboration with the Li Family could be postponed until Li Muyan cleaned up the mess at home.

The wasteland at the foot of their mountain was now emerald green. It was filled with pasture that had grown after cattle and sheep ate it. Xiaoxiao propped her chin on her hand and looked at it for a while before asking the space: [How many points are there?]

The space jumped for joy: [Current total points: 65,800. Master, it’s been increasing very quickly recently!] At this speed, it could level up in four to five days.

Xiaoxiao nodded and looked at her mountain. Under the lead of Chen Kuan and Wang He, the refugees who came to the Ning Family to apply for jobs had cleared the weeds and withered trees on the mountain and planted the saplings she had prepared. Xiaoxiao did not know if it was because of her heart, but she felt that even from afar, this mountain looked much better than the other mountains beside it.

Just as she was admiring it, Chen Kuan and the others moved over hesitantly. “Boss, can we continue to work for the Ning Family after planting the trees?”

The Ning Family was magnanimous and gave them enough money. They never owed them money. They could not bear to miss such a good boss.

Xiaoxiao said, “I was about to ask. Which one of you has farmed before?”

There were quite a lot of people. As a dabbler, Xiaoxiao could not take on the assessment, so she invited Ning Fengnian over and asked him to find some people who knew how to farm, leaving them to continue farming the second season of rice.

Chen Kuan and the others were a little puzzled. “Didn’t they say that the new rice seeds were stolen by thieves?”

Ning Fengnian also turned around curiously. Xiaoxiao was helpless. “Without new rice seeds, we still have to plant crops.”

That was true. They couldn’t just leave the 10 acres of the best quality land empty every day if they couldn’t find the rice seeds, right?

The next day, Ning Fengnian started to prepare the seedlings for the rice seeds that Xiaoxiao “bought” with a few newly selected helpers. The others looked at Xiaoxiao eagerly. “Miss, you said that there are other jobs for us. Is that true?”

“Yes, I do,” Xiaoxiao said. “But you’ll be busier and more tired.”

Without waiting for them to retreat, Xiaoxiao continued, “But at the same time, you earn more money.”

Everyone’s eyes began to glow. They were not afraid of hardship or tiredness, but they were afraid of being poor.

The green prawn business in Fragrance Restaurant was not stingy with sharing the experiences of the old gluttons who had participated in the food tasting. There was an endless stream of customers, and the other restaurants imitated them. This made the villagers of Fortune Village, who discovered the green prawns first, earn a lot of money. Every time they saw the Ning Family, they couldn’t stop smiling.

However, soon, the shopkeepers who were in the supper business encountered the same problem.

It was too hot during the day in July. Everyone liked to go out later. However, they would not notice the time when they were happy. Usually, as soon as supper was served, the watchmen outside would already start to urge them. The bailiffs of the county office also began to patrol. In order not to waste it, they could only stuff it into their mouths. It was fine if they could not enjoy it leisurely, but they were all so anxious that they could not finish it in time. After a few times, they lost the mood to wait.

The shopkeepers of the restaurant were all anxious. They were busy processing money for the chef and waiters to speed up and persuading the customers to pack it up. However, their efforts were in vain.

Seeing that the profitable business that had just become popular was about to fail again, the shopkeepers, including Shopkeeper Xu, were anxious, but they could not find a solution.

At this moment, Xiaoxiao rented a house in a remote part of the county and got someone to release the news to call over the diligent refugees who could not find work.

With Chen Kuan, Wang He, and the others as guarantors, the refugees quickly gathered when they found out that there were busy but money-making jobs. They were shocked when they went—because there were actually officials outside the residence.

As refugees, it was very difficult for them to be accepted no matter where they fled to. They were ostracized and expelled by the authorities often. Hence, when they saw the bailiffs, their first reaction was that they had to leave again. However, Chen Kuan and Wang He, who were already familiar with Xiaoxiao, walked over generously.

“Miss Ning, where do we register?”

Xiaoxiao pointed at the bailiffs who were trying their best to put on a kind face. “Leave your name and identity information there according to the instructions of the bailiff big brothers. After registering, you can receive your token.”

With someone taking the lead, the refugees became bolder and could listen to the bailiffs in peace. They heard that the job they were going to do was called “takeout”..
