The weather is getting hotter and hotter, although Granny Su doesn't understand pharmacology at first, but she also thinks about growing vegetables on weekdays, Xiao Ling'er taught her a little, and even helped her take care of the medicine fields in the yard lushly.

She planted several plants this time with a short planting cycle, and in a little time, she would almost be able to harvest.

During this time, there was nothing to do on weekdays, and Changsheng repaired the courtyard, although for the three of them, the progress would be slower, but now it seems that the dilapidated courtyard walls are neatly repaired, and the courtyard is also thriving, and it has completely disappeared from the depressed appearance when he first arrived at the courtyard.

Although there is nothing in the room compared to that of a large family, occasionally Xiao Ling'er will pick some flowers and plants to decorate, but it is better to be clean and elegant. Even their kitchen counters are beginning to be able to add some different dishes, and there is no need to eat steamed buns and porridge like at the beginning.

She loves the life she has now, peaceful and calm, and every step is moving in the direction she wants.

It's just that I didn't expect that sometimes calm is always followed by hidden wind and rain.

Xiao Ling'er and Changsheng went back to collect medicine on the mountain as usual, and they had picked about the same in the past few days, and they had finished their work a lot earlier. Changsheng was tired and sweaty, Xiao Ling'er looked at it, and handed over the towel in his sleeve, "It is said that there are three fires behind the child's buttocks, this is really true, look at you, I didn't feel it in the shade of the woods just now, but now I have just come out of the forest to bask in the sun, and my head is already sweating." ”

"Hmph." Changsheng's little nose wrinkled, "Sister Ling'er knows how to laugh at me, I am less than a year old when you are older, if I am a child, you will not be much better." ”

"One year old naturally has a one-year difference, otherwise you should ask your mother-in-law to see if the title of Sister Ling'er can be changed to Sister Ling'er." Changsheng is young, his face has not fully grown, and there is tender baby fat on both sides, every time he gets angry and pouts his lips and flesh, his face looks cute, Xiao Ling'er can't help but tease him.

Changsheng didn't show weakness at all, "Then I'm also the only man in the family, you see, I'm about to surpass Sister Ling'er." ”

"Alright, alright." Xiao Ling'er laughed, "Let's go home quickly, the herbs are almost over for a while, you can rest for a few days, and after a while, the ones grown at home can also be harvested, and we will sell them to the county seat together." ”

"Howler!" Changsheng smiled and narrowed his eyes, "After waiting for so long, it can be regarded as waiting for the day when the harvest can be harvested." ”

As he spoke, his steps grew faster, and with a smile on his face, he didn't know if he thought that he would be able to add meat to the table in a few days.

However, who would have thought that before he could reach the door of the house, he had already heard the noise in the yard, and the sound of discussion one after another, which was mixed with Granny Su's crying, "God! What can I do about this, I, Su Manqing, have never done anything unreasonable, why should I be punished like this? ”

"Mother-in-law?" The expressions on Xiao Ling'er and Changsheng's faces froze, and they both ran towards the courtyard after looking at each other.

There were some people standing outside the courtyard, and there were several inside, Liang Qiulan and her usual friends were all there, pointing and pointing.

As soon as they entered it, Xiao Ling'er and Changsheng were stunned. I saw Granny Su kneeling in front of the medicine field, her hands were covered with dirt, and her hair was scattered a lot.

And their medicinal fields, which carried all their hopes, were completely devoid of the lushness they had when they left home this morning, and they were all scattered and collapsed to the ground, and the soil of the medicine fields was full of animal footprints, large and small, trampling on the herbs that they could harvest in a while.

Ruined ...... Their hopes were ruined......

"Mother-in-law, what's going on?" Changsheng's little face was wrinkled, and he hurriedly went to Granny Su's side, helped her up, and asked anxiously.

Granny Su pulled Changsheng and looked at Xiao Ling'er again, she was already incoherent, in her heart, she regarded this medicinal field as more important than Xiao Ling'er looking at it, "Ling'er, what can I do about this, it's all my fault!" It's all my fault! It's me who didn't take care of ......."

"Mother-in-law, don't worry, Changsheng, quickly hold on to your mother-in-law." Xiao Ling'er was also panicked in her heart.

This medicine field, they have been taking care of it for so many months, just waiting for the harvest in a few more days, and the hope of the family is placed on it, and now it is ruined, which is equivalent to months of hard work in vain.

However, she still tried her best to suppress her emotions, her mother-in-law was old, Changsheng was still young and had no ideas, she couldn't let her emotions cause her mother-in-law and Changsheng to panic even more.

Especially the discussion on the side, some of them are people who are watching the show, and there is a familiar figure who pushes away the people around him and trots towards her, it is Zhou Shen!

Zhou Shen arrived at Xiao Ling'er's side, glanced at Granny Su, and said, "Little lady, you are finally back, I was just about to find you." ”

"Brother Zhou, do you know what happened?" Xiao Ling'er just wanted to quickly unravel this confusion, Granny Su was too anxious, if Zhou Shen knew, he could explain it more clearly.

Zhou Shen nodded, "I have been resting at home with a leg injury in the past few days, and Granny Su happened to see her when she went out to fetch water, so she helped her carry water and came back together, and when I got home, I saw that all the herbs in this courtyard were trampled by animals, I chased a little up the mountain but didn't catch it, and saw that the footprints were left by pigs." ”

"Damn!" Xiao Ling'er clenched her fists, "The Mei family's old courtyard is close to the back mountain, I was worried that there would be some poisonous snakes and beasts, so I wanted to repair the yard, but who knew that this kind of thing still happened." Fortunately, my mother-in-law was not injured. ”

The village is close to the mountains, it is inevitable that such a thing will happen, she just didn't expect their luck to be too bad, last time Changsheng was bitten by a poisonous snake, and this time he ran into a wild boar down the mountain, she could only think in a better direction, it is best if people are fine.

It's just that the people who are talking on the side are really irritating to listen to, especially Liang Qiulan, who didn't even think to hide the schadenfreude on her face.

"Oh, it's not, but luckily it's okay. Little lady, I told you, what if you work hard, if you can't do it at hand, don't force it, you see now, the gains outweigh the losses. You also want to teach me pharmacology, duh! People are not as good as heaven. ”

"Liang, Liang Qiulan, you don't say a word, but no one calls you dumb." Granny Su was helped up by Changsheng, and her hands trembled as she pointed at Liang Qiulan with a sigh of relief.

"Hey, what Granny Su said, don't I pity you too." Liang Qiulan rarely didn't talk to Granny Su, touched her coiled hair, and shook her head slightly, "Besides, the Mei family has no good fortune, it is God's retribution on your head, and the herbs that the wild boar stepped on were not done by me, you are yelling at me here, and the descendants of big families, this is the morality." ”

"That's it, what does this have to do with Qiulan?" The people on the side also muttered quietly.

"What a good guy to gloat." Changsheng leaned on Granny Su, and he had never had a good impression of Liang Qiulan, and his words were also menacing, "No one said that you did it, why do you keep emphasizing it, do you have to give people a sense of emptiness?" ”

"You! Little rabbit cubs, you are young and have a bad mouth, no wonder God punishes you. Liang Qiulan flicked her sleeves, stood with the other woman closest to her, swallowed her saliva, took a step back under her feet, and followed the conversation, "Yes, Changsheng, since it was caused by a wild boar, you can't blame others, you don't want to talk nonsense." ”

Xiao Ling'er frowned and glared at them, her vicious expression made the people over there shrink slightly, Zhou Shen on the side withdrew his eyes, ignored the nonsense on the side, and lowered his voice a little bit, "Little lady, I haven't finished speaking, this herb is trampled by pigs, but it is not a wild boar, it is a domestic pig." ”

"Domestic pigs?"

"Well, wild boars are generally smaller than domestic boars, and they can't leave such large footprints, and you look at this fence."

Xiao Ling'er listened to Zhou Shen's words, looked towards the courtyard fence, and understood what he meant. Zhou Shen hunts for a living, so he naturally knows a lot about the beasts in the mountains. She couldn't see the strangeness of the footprints, and Zhou Shen naturally couldn't see it badly.

Although the gate of the hedge was broken, and the connecting bolt door was broken, the gate was made of wood, and there was no trace of the boar's fangs on it. This tusk is the weapon of the wild boar, and it is also the most different place from the domestic boar, if the wild boar is broken, it is impossible not to see the slightest trace on the fence.

"You mean, it's possible that someone did it on purpose?" Xiao Ling'er looked at Zhou Shen's somewhat heavy eyes, knowing that his thoughts in his heart should be similar to hers, "There are not many pig-raising families in the village, and there are only one or two of them, all of them are very protected, and it is impossible to let them slip out casually." If it is not a wild boar, it is possible that someone deliberately broke the fence and trampled on the herb with the pig. ”

"I'm just guessing, after all, it's just a few footprints, and it can't be used as evidence, and no one can conclude that it must not be a wild boar." Zhou Shen shook his head.

"As long as you know that this matter may be man-made, you are not afraid that the evidence will not be found." Xiao Ling'er looked in the direction of Liang Qiulan.

She has only been in Anding Village for a few months, and she has always had no grievances with others, everyone knows that the fields are planted with the lives of each family, and a little friction on weekdays is enough to scold her mouth, and she will not be so ruthless. Except for Liang Qiulan, she couldn't think of anyone else.

The technique of this action is not clever, otherwise it will not be obvious to Zhou Shen at a glance, but it is not easy to ask Liang Qiulan to admit that she did it.

However, Xiao Ling'er clenched her fists, she never harmed anyone. However, she is definitely not related to the kind White Lotus.

This road to get rid of Xiao Jiamei's family, she doesn't allow anyone to stop in front of her!
