Before the house was raided, the maidservant of the Prime Minister's residence absconded with t

Liu Tiechui, who had been holding back all the way, finally couldn't help but ask, "Sister, why was Young Master Li so polite to you?"

And what's with those Ganoderma lucidum and Polygonum multiflorum? Why are they so valuable?

Tao leaned against the carriage wall, squinting at the clouds outside, and casually replied, "Second Brother, he is a young master from a prominent family, and he has good manners."

I am his guest, so of course he has to be hospitable.

That medicinal herb is valuable because it is rare and has been aged for a long time; ordinary herbs wouldn't sell for that much money.

But now that our family is rich, you can all just wait to get married!

The mule cart entered Xinghua Village as the sun was already setting.

As usual, a group of aunties and sisters-in-law gathered under the locust tree at the entrance of the village to sew shoe soles and shell beans.

Tao'er jumped off the carriage and deliberately raised her voice, saying, "Big brother, keep those silver coins safe, don't drop them."

We sold several hundred taels of silver for those lingzhi mushrooms and sika deer today; that should last us a while.

Liu Tiezhu was taken aback and was about to reply when Tao'er stopped him with a look.

Liu Tiechui, being a bit quick-witted, chimed in, "That's right! That Ganoderma lucidum is huge, bigger than my palm. The gentlemen in the city are fighting over it."

The women under the locust tree stopped what they were doing and stood there listening intently.

Once the Liu family's mule cart had turned the corner and disappeared from sight, the news exploded like a bucket of cold water poured into a hot oil pan.

"Did you hear that? That little brat from Old Master Liu's family picked a huge Ganoderma lucidum and sold it for five hundred taels!"

Five hundred taels?

My goodness!

I've never seen so much silver in my entire life!

"Not only the lingzhi mushroom, but also a live sika deer sold for a hundred taels!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, Old Master Liu is about to make a fortune!"

Those two simple-minded boys from the Da Niu family have finally made it; now they won't have to worry about not finding wives.

"Those people at the Liu family's old house are probably so angry they'll hang themselves!"

They've separated.

This immense wealth has nothing to do with them anymore.

"Pah! Serves them right! Who told them to mistreat Da Niu and his family back then?"

"Absolutely! They'd sell their own granddaughter!"

"Now they've got their comeuppance!"

The old man of the Liu family is probably going to regret this terribly!

"Hahaha………"

"Do you really think there are so many treasures on the back mountain?"

I'll have my husband go check it out tomorrow too...

"You think those Ganoderma lucidum mushrooms are so easy to find?"

"Exactly, so many people went up the mountain before, how come we didn't see any Ganoderma lucidum?"

"I think that girl Tao is just blessed with good fortune. Haven't you noticed? Ever since she came back, the Da Niu family has been living a good life!"

"Yes, yes, yes..."

That seems to be the case!

"Dear uncles and aunts, I've bought some sunflower seeds and peanuts. Take them home for your children as snacks!"

After Tao'er finished speaking, she gave her older brother a wink, and Liu Tiezhu quickly took out a bag of melon seeds and a bag of peanuts that he had bought at the market and distributed them to the aunts and grandmothers.

The villagers, of course, happily accepted the snacks with beaming smiles.

He kept praising Tao'er.

Tao'er said with a smile, "Actually, I'm just lucky, or maybe this house brought me good luck."

We stayed there last night and nothing happened. Those ghost stories are pure nonsense.

I think this house is a lucky house, that's why my brothers and I are so lucky!

Everyone nodded, thinking that it made sense, and they all regretted not buying the house.

I'll buy it even if I have to borrow money.

Tao'er felt that the fire had reached the right level, so she decided to add a little more heat.

"Don't you all agree with this?"

My second brother had never caught a live sika deer while hunting before.

They also haven't found any matsutake mushrooms.

Not to mention Ganoderma lucidum!

And those wild rabbits and pheasants, I've never caught so many before.

And those medicinal herbs, there weren't this many before, were there?

I feel this house brings good fortune to our family.

Everyone nodded in agreement. "Peach Girl is right, this house is so lucky for you!"

"Wouldn't this house be a blessed and auspicious place?"

"In my opinion, that girl Tao is a lucky charm."

"I wish our Dashan could marry her!"

"Your Da Shan is so ugly, while Tao Yatou is so pretty, knows about herbs, and knows how to make money. She wouldn't even look at your Da Shan!"

"Go! Go! Go……

"I can always think about it!"

"Hahaha………"

"Auntie Dashan, the people of Dashan are very good. You will marry a good girl in the future."

"Thank you, Peach Girl!"

"Aunties, we're going home now. My parents are waiting for us to come home for dinner!"

In less than fifteen minutes, the news that Liu Tao'er's family had made a lot of money spread to every corner of Xinghua Village.

Even Grandma Zhao, who is hard of hearing at the east end of the village, heard her granddaughter-in-law tell the whole story in a loud and boisterous way.

Tao'er deliberately let everyone in the village know.

"Little sister, people say that wealth should not be flaunted, why do you deliberately say that in front of the villagers!"

"If the people at that old house find out, they'll probably come looking for trouble again."

Liu Tiezhu asked, puzzled.

Although he was not very knowledgeable, he knew the principle of not flaunting wealth.

"Brother, I understand what you're saying, but I said it on purpose."

Don't worry, we've already separated from them, and the money we earn has nothing to do with them.

The reason I did this was to make all the villagers feel that the house we lived in was not a haunted house, but a blessed house.

This will be of great benefit to the two of you getting married.

Otherwise, given how haunted this house is, even if a young woman wanted to marry into it, she probably wouldn't dare.

Tao'er patiently explained to her brothers.

As soon as Tao'er and the others arrived at the door, Qingge, along with her parents and the two children, Ayan, stood waiting at the door.

Presumably, someone had already tipped off the family.

Tao'er jumped off the mule cart and said to her two older brothers, "Drive the mule cart to the side gate and come in from that side."

Liu Tiezhu responded and drove the mule cart through the side gate.

"Sister Tao'er, you're back! Huanhuan missed you!"

The little girl immediately pounced on her and hugged her leg.

Ayan was much more composed. "Sister Tao'er, you must be tired!"

"Come in and sit down, I'll massage your legs!"

Tao'er happily picked them up, but alas, the two children seemed to have gained a little weight, making it a bit difficult for her to lift them.

They carried them into the courtyard, one in each arm, and placed them on the stone benches to sit down.

Then take out the fruit candies that were prepared in advance and give each of them two candies.

"Here you go, as a reward, two for each of you."

"Wow!

These candies are sweet and sour, and smell delicious! Huanhuan loves them!

Huanhuan put the candy in her mouth, her eyes crinkling with happiness.

"Sister Peach, this candy is so delicious! I love it too! It smells fruity!"

Ayan narrowed his eyes as well.

"Ayan, take your little sister to play!"

I have something to say to your grandparents.

Tao'er smiled and pinched the two little ones' cheeks.

It felt so good that she couldn't resist.

Ayan nodded obediently, then jumped off the stone bench and pulled Huanhuan to see the little rabbit.

After the two children left, their mother, Zhang Su'e, couldn't wait to ask, "Tao'er, Grandma Chen just came over and told us you sold it for several hundred taels of silver?"
