"...Wife? Wife?!"

Seeing Wu Shaoli's blank stare, Fang Wei waved his hand in front of her face several times and shouted, "Wife?! Are you listening to me?!"

"Fang Wei!"

Wu Shaoli suddenly grabbed his hand, her expression panicked, and said, "What exactly does the local earth god want?! We don't have any offerings to give them!"

"What?"

Fang Wei was completely bewildered. Weren't they talking about wild gastrodia elata? How did they suddenly veer into talking about local deities and mountain gods?

"The sound! The sound you heard!"

During the most difficult time of her life, Wu Shaoli hoped in her heart that some deity could help her, but she herself did not actually believe in these ghosts and gods.

She was literate and understood some principles, so she knew it was best not to touch such mysterious things!

"..."

Fang Wei was surprised that Wu Shaoli's first reaction was to worry about this, and quickly reassured her, "It's okay! It's okay! Honey!"

"Perhaps they are just being kind and don't need offerings?"

"We should plant more trees in the future! Aren't there plenty of trees on the mountain?"

"……real?"

Wu Shaoli was still very flustered and said with a frown.

"I mean it!"

Fang Wei pulled her into his arms and gently patted her back: "If all else fails, when we have money, we'll set up a shrine to the Earth God at home! That should definitely solve the problem!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Wu Shaoli felt a little relieved, but immediately remembered the important matter at hand.

"But how much can this Gastrodia elata sell for? It certainly can't compare to wild Ganoderma lucidum."

He knows that!

Fang Wei leaned close to his wife's ear and whispered a few words.

"How much per pound?!"

Wu Shaoli screamed in surprise, then immediately covered her mouth with her hand, saying in a muffled voice, "How much does this cost per pound?!"

"This number!"

Fang Wei made a gesture. He had overheard people talking about this price when he went to buy Chinese medicine in his previous life, and he had been quite envious of it at the time.

Unexpectedly, after being given a second chance at life, this great treasure fell into his lap!

"Does that mean our family is going to be rich?!"

Wu Shaoli continued in a muffled voice, "A pound can sell for three figures. If we can dig up a few more pounds, then my family won't have to worry about not being able to repay the loan."

"We can't dig now."

Fang Wei covered the soil back up and whispered like a thief.

"This thing seems to be quite time-sensitive. I'll go back to town and see if there are any books about it, and then I'll see how to get it."

"If we accidentally damage the condition during the digging, we won't be able to sell it for that price, and we'll suffer a huge loss!"

Most importantly, the whole village is now watching their family. If he were to take something from the mountain to sell in town at this time, he would definitely be discovered.

"But what if I leave it here and someone finds it?"

Wu Shaoli was somewhat worried.

Few people come here, but that doesn't mean there aren't any.

"Are you stupid?"

Fang Wei reached out and pinched his wife's cheek, laughing, "This land belongs to our family now. Who would come here for no reason?"

"More than 200 acres is indeed a large area. We need to find a way to build a fence to separate it."

Before he became rich, the villagers certainly wouldn't be curious enough to come here and steal anything. But if he becomes rich, those who are envious of him will definitely try to sabotage him!

Of course, such a large area of ​​land cannot be completely enclosed.

He just wanted to assert his sovereignty.

"Is it just the two of us doing this?"

Wu Shaoli wasn't afraid of hardship, but it was just that such a large area would definitely take a long time for just two people to manage.

"Definitely not."

After confirming that someone else had discovered the presence of wild gastrodia elata, Fang Wei pulled Wu Shaoli to stand up with him.

"Let's go back first, and talk as we walk."

The two walked back while discussing their plan. When they returned to their original spot, they saw Daya and Erya with their younger sisters lying on a large rock.

"Mother!"

"Mother!"

"..."

Seeing his daughters rush over and hug Wu Shaoli's legs, calling her "Mommy" repeatedly, Fang Wei felt incredibly envious. He quickly coaxed Er Ya:

"Er Ya, come quick, come to Daddy! Daddy will give you an extra White Rabbit candy when we get home!"

Upon hearing this, Er Ya immediately let go of her mother's leg, threw herself into his arms, and shouted, "Two White Rabbit milk candies!"

"Oh! My dear daughter!"

Fang Wei grabbed her armpits, bounced her around a couple of times in the air, and then pulled her into his arms. "Okay! I'll give you two White Rabbit milk candies when we get home!"

"I want two White Rabbit milk candies too!"

Upon hearing her second sister's words, Sanya quickly ran over and hugged Fang Wei's leg, calling out anxiously.

"White Rabbit! White Rabbit!"

Si Ya pulled Wu Ya along, and although she didn't rush over to surround Fang Wei, she did express that she wanted two White Rabbit milk candies.

"Alright! Take them all!"

Fang Wei didn't care why his daughters were close to him; as long as they were willing to be close to him, that was enough.

"Dad keeps his word, he'll get it for you when we get home! Hahahaha!"

"A bunch of gluttons!"

Daya, holding Qiya in her arms, glared at Erya and Sanya.

"Da Ya is the best girl."

Wu Shaoli hugged Er Ya, reached out and rubbed her head, and said with a smile, "When we get home, Dad will give you two White Rabbit milk candies too."

"..."

Daya pursed her lips but didn't say no.

She also likes to eat White Rabbit milk candy, and she is always happy when she eats it.

But unlike her other sisters who are all gluttons and would abandon their mother for a few candies!

When the family reached the foot of the mountain, Fang Wei asked Wu Shaoli and her daughters to wait for him there while he quickly went to cut down the patch of wild chrysanthemum that had been reported in the intelligence report that day.

After returning home, the family finished dinner.

As agreed, Fang Wei gave each of his daughters two White Rabbit milk candies, even those of Liu Ya and Qi Ya who couldn't eat them.

While the whole family was having a good time, he called Daya and Erya to his side.

"Da Ya, Er Ya."

Fang Wei squatted down in front of his two daughters, his face becoming very serious, and told them what he had been thinking about for two days.

"Do you two want to go to school in town?"

"..."

Hearing this, Wu Shaoli, who was about to speak to Siya, suddenly fell silent.

Did she hear that right? Fang Wei is going to send his two daughters to school in town?!

"Go...to school?"

Er Ya's eyes widened. "Daddy, are you talking about that little house Caihua mentioned, the one with the blackboard and the teacher?"

"Can my older sister and I really go?"

Of course she knows she should go to school!

Caihua and her brother both attend school in town!

Every time Ayaka tells her about something new she's learned, she feels sad and longs to go back to school.

But her family had no money, so she couldn't possibly go to school!
