Chapter 254: Family
"Did Lan'er send you to find me?" Ye Pozi felt safe only when she was with her daughter.
How could Chu Heng not understand her thoughts? However, now that his wife wanted to protect her natal family and was not as ruthless as before, he naturally supported her.
"Yes, Muyu is in front. Come with us to the house in the county." Chu Heng affirmed, not bothering to ask Ye Pozi.
Ye Pozi also agreed. She walked past Chu Heng, saw Ye Muyu waiting not far away and nodded "Alright, let's go."
She then held her grandson Ye Hai's hand and followed Chu Heng.
On the way, they encountered Han Shi and Ye Mengjie returning.
The four families walked towards the house in the county together.
Chu Heng went to see the county magistrate and reminded him. As for what the county magistrate would do, it was his business.
The people from the Chu family quickly returned to the courtyard.
Upon entering, they saw Chu Lin entertaining Liushi family's younger brother Liu Cheng, younger sister-in-law Luo Shi, and the young girl who participated in the competition, Liu Jiao. They were all sitting in the main hall.
Chu Lin had brought the family members of his in-laws to the courtyard because the Liu family was the first to compete.
When Chu Liushi entered, she saw Liu Cheng and joyfully went forward, "Second brother, it's really you. Hurry, sit down. Let's talk properly, the two siblings."
"Sister, alright, this time coming to the county, father asked me to bring some mountain products for you. They are mushrooms picked in the mountains, some wild pears, and tea leaves grown in our village. They're not anything good." Liu Cheng felt a bit embarrassed. Since he was born, he had lived a good life for a while. However, after the family's fortune declined and they returned to their hometown, it was all because he failed to achieve anything remarkable. Otherwise, they wouldn't have wasted the family's property in vain.
But the Liu family had a good mentality. Failure in their careers was not something they could control.
They were still living well in the deep mountains, thanks to Chu Liushi's occasional financial support.
From Chu Heng passing the provincial exam to now, it had been six years. During this time, the sons had all grown up.
However, because of Chu Liushi's help, the Liu family felt guilty about this daughter-in-law who had married into their family. They would never visit empty-handed.
Chu Liushi held Luo Shi's hand and sat down "Did you and your elder brother go to the mountains again?"
"Sister, we're used to going to the mountains. It's not dangerous. By the way, many people in the village have found medicinal herbs in the mountains and we've found some too."
Chu Zhiwen also walked over.
Hearing this, he said, "Speaking of which, your big mountain village is also divided into households. This time, we found some medicinal herbs in our village. You should go back and look for them too."
At the same time, he said to the eldest son of the main family, "Ah Sheng, go and draw pictures of ginseng, wild fan flowers and other medicinal herbs. Let your uncle take them back to identify."
"Yes, Grandpa." Chu Sheng agreed and went to his room.
Liu Cheng then shouted for his brother-in-law. Chu Zhiwen nodded.
"These wild fan flowers sound familiar." Liu Cheng hadn't seen Chu's family members for a long time, and combined with their remote location in the deep mountains, they rarely had contact with the outside world. Discovering medicinal herbs this time was an accident.
Hearing this, Chu Liushi guessed it but she wanted to confirm it "Second brother, did you sell ginseng, wild fan flowers, and Huang Jing?"
Liu Cheng shook his head when he heard this "No, we sold some medicinal herbs for treating wind-cold."
"I haven't heard of these three kinds."
"In that case, you're in luck. Our village also sold some medicinal herbs and it's precisely these three kinds. The prices were not bad either."
