Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around
Chapter 44: Shocking at Every Turn
Liu Siyue picked up the bucket, "Second Uncle, I'll go return the bucket."
Liu Siyue walked around the alley not far away, put the things into her spatial storage, and returned empty-handed. "Siyue, you haven't eaten anything yet. Eat something before we go."
"Second Uncle, no need. Let's hurry home. Second Aunt and the others must be getting impatient. I'll eat on the oxcart later."
"Okay, let's go now."
Liu Siyue quickly climbed onto the oxcart and sat down. Liu Dawang cracked his whip, and the oxcart started moving. The oxcart moved very smoothly, it seemed that the oxen were really thirsty today.
Liu Siyue took out bread and milk, eating and drinking as she looked at the crescent moon, the twinkling stars, and felt a gentle autumn breeze. It felt wonderful.
"In April, the water bucket I just filled was really nice; it's so lightweight, and it doesn't feel like it's made of wood."
"I didn't look carefully, Second Uncle. I'll go to town or the county seat another day and see if there's anything like it."
"I was just asking casually; we don't need to spend that money."
Liu Siyue knew that once money was mentioned, her second uncle would definitely stop talking about anything else.
"In April, the village chief's ox must have been exhausted today. We should bring back some gifts. Look, the ox just drank some water, and it's walking with energy now."
"Yes, Second Uncle, we should buy an oxcart for our family too. It will be more convenient to sell medicinal herbs in the future. We can't keep borrowing other people's oxcarts."
"Okay, let's buy an oxcart."
"Second Uncle, when we buy an oxcart, you must teach us sisters how to use it."
"Okay, I'll leave it all to Second Uncle. I'll teach you everything you need to know."
The uncle and nephew chatted all the way to the village entrance. The village was quiet, with only the occasional bark of a dog. When they were almost at their doorstep, Liu Siyue took out all the things from her spatial storage.
By the moonlight, Liu Ruyun saw an oxcart slowly approaching. "Father, April."
"Yun'er".
"Cousin."
"You're finally back! We were so worried!"
Ruxue quickly opened the courtyard gate and let the oxcart into the yard.
As soon as the oxcart entered the courtyard, everyone gathered around, and Liu Dawang saw that the village chief and his family were also there.
"Dawang, why are you back so late? Did something happen on the way?" the village chief asked.
"No, I just had a lot of things to do in the county town today and bought a lot of things, so I was a little slow on the way and made everyone worry."
"Uncle Village Chief, Auntie, I was delayed in the county town, which is why I came back late. I'm sorry to have made you all worry about us."
Cousin, Uncle, move all the things into my room so the cow can rest.
The village chief and the others were stunned by the load: grain, cotton, flour, a huge pile of cloth, pastries, quilts...
The village chief saw that everything was finished and said, "Dawang, you've had a long day, so get some rest. We'll take the cow back with us."
"Okay, thank you so much."
"Uncle Village Chief, Auntie, please take care. Thank you so much."
When the village chief and his family returned home, they lovingly stroked their cow. "Dad, look how energetic our cow is! It's even more energetic than when it was at home. Uncle Dawang must have fed it the best fodder," said the eldest son, Liu Hongyu. The village chief looked and saw that it was true, and his heartache instantly vanished.
The second son, Liu Hongsheng, said, "Father, Mother, has Uncle Dawang's family struck it rich? They bought so many things; it must have cost several tens of taels of silver!"
"Hmm, it seems they've struck it rich. But this is their business, so let's not ask questions or gossip, lest we cause them trouble. Da Wang's family has had a tough time, and we should be happy for them that they're doing well."
"Dad, we all know that we just hope that Uncle Dawang's family can help us make money in the future. I also want to send Zhi'er and Hui'er to school."
Look, since Uncle Dawang's family came back in April, their lives have been getting better and better. This must be related to the fact that April has learned to read. She speaks eloquently, and there are some things she says that even her father probably doesn't know. Now she's even leading the family to study and learn to read. Uncle Dawang's family is probably going to be very successful in the future.
When Liu Hongsheng heard his elder brother say that he was going to send his child to school and that he would also send his son along, he was deeply grateful to his brother for always thinking of him. He vowed to treat his brother well in the future.
"Don't worry, let's talk about it later. I believe in Da Wang and Si Yue. They are both grateful people. If they find a good way to make money, they will definitely not forget us."
The village chief and his wife lay in bed, unable to sleep either. "Husband, I think this April is a shrewd and capable child. She has brought prosperity to the Da Wang family, and even Feng's illness has improved a lot. She is a blessed child who will bring good fortune to the family."
"This is what they call good people being rewarded. Back in April, we went back to the Liu family's old house first. That family was inhumane and forced the child to the brink of death, completely chilling the child's heart."
The Da Wang family is kind-hearted. Even though their own lives are so difficult, they still stayed and took care of Si Yue wholeheartedly. For that one day alone, he deserved it.
"Yes, Liu Dahu's family is now kicking themselves. They're desperately trying to get back together, but their hearts, which have been chilled to the bone, can't be warmed up so easily."
"Go to sleep, don't worry so much. After the holiday, we'll go see our daughter. I've been feeling uneasy lately."
Liu Dawang's house.
The whole family sat in Liu Siyue's house, listening to her talk about selling medicinal herbs in the county town. Liu Dawang also talked about what happened on the way there and back, but he knew nothing about the robbery they encountered on the road.
"In April, my second uncle used to stay in the village and thought it didn't matter that he was illiterate and couldn't do accounting. But this time when I went to the county town, I really felt the importance of literacy. I couldn't read accounts or calculate money. I just believed whatever others said. In the future, I will also learn to read more and do accounting so that I won't be cheated by others."
It's not easy to go to the county town, and we can't let April do all the hard work alone. She also has children to take care of, so we need to help out as much as possible.
"Dad, don't worry, we will study hard. From now on, let April stay at home to take care of the children, and we will go with you."
Liu Siyue clapped her hands and cheered, "From now on, everyone in the family can take charge. If we unite as one and work together, we won't have to worry about not making a good living."
Everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles. Liu Ruyun looked at the pile of things and felt very sorry for the money. Siyue was really willing to spend it. If it were her, she definitely wouldn't be willing to spend it. She only thought about it in her heart, but didn't say anything. Her second aunt also felt sorry for the money. Buying so many things would probably cost several tens of taels.
Seeing the two little girls, Ruyue and Ruxing, sitting there nodding, already very sleepy, Liu Siyue said, "Cousin, Ruxue, you two take your two little sisters back to their room to sleep first. I'll talk to you when you get back."
The two men each carried one of the sisters, placed them on the bed, turned them over, covered them with the blankets, and gently patted them twice before they drifted off to sleep.
When Liu Siyue saw the two of them come in, she took out the silver and silver notes from her bosom. "This time, I got a total of 150 taels and 8 qian of silver from selling medicinal herbs, and I sold two Ganoderma lucidum for 600 taels. The money is all here, and I'll give it to my cousin for safekeeping."
Everyone was shocked by these two numbers: 150 taels and 600 taels. Did they really make that much money?
"April, are these medicinal herbs really that valuable? The herbs we dug up actually sold for 150 taels! My goodness, our family is going to make a fortune."
Ru Xue and Ru Yu were overjoyed, thinking about going up the mountain to continue collecting herbs the next day. They felt that the whole mountain was full of silver waiting for them to pick up, and they also really admired April.
Liu Siyue saw the expressions on the two sisters' faces and said, "You two shouldn't even think about going into the mountains to collect herbs tomorrow. It's a festival tomorrow, so we'll go to town together."
"What are we going to do in town?" everyone couldn't help but ask.
