Chapter 124: Chapter 124

124 We’re Going to Be Rich

The Wang family still did not know that the villagers were checking the fields. It was mainly because Old Madam Wang had suddenly fallen sick. It was not really an illness, but that one morning, she suddenly could not get up and said that her back was sore.

Old man Wang was anxious. He could not care less about hiding the matter of his leg and walked out of Wang Chuangui’s room.

“Old woman, how are you? Are you feeling unwell? Tell me, I’ll get Doctor Hu for you later!”

Old Wang walked to Old Madam Wang’s bed. If not for the fact that his son and wife were all present, he would have lifted the blanket and take a good look at what was wrong.

This was not because Old man Wang was making a mountain out of a molehill, but because Old Madam Wang had always been in good health and basically would not fall sick. This time, she suddenly said that her back was sore. How could everyone not be anxious?

Actually, it had been a long time since Old Madam Wang had done such arduous work. She had to work in the dark at night and walk around in the muddy ground.

In order to hide the evidence at night, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair even washed their clothes in the rain.

“What can happen to me? You’re just waiting for something to happen to me, right?” Old Madam Wang said angrily, “Why did you get up? You don’t want your leg anymore and want it to be broken again?! And all of you, why are you standing here instead of working? Are you trying to take the opportunity to be lazy? Don’t think that I can’t get up from the bed. I still have the strength to hit you!”

The boys were originally very worried, mainly because their mother rarely fell sick. In their memory, their mother had never fallen sick.

Now that she was lying down, how could they not be anxious?

In the end, when they saw that their mother could still curse loudly, the worry in their hearts fell.

It was good that she could still scold them. If she could scold them, it meant that it was nothing serious.

Wang Chuanfu called out to his younger brothers. “Alright, Mother. We’ll get back to work first. Call us if there’s anything.”

Madam Feng said, “Go out and do your work. We’ll stay and guard Mother.”

“What’s there to guard? I’m not a three-year-old baby. Go and play on your own. Don’t disturb me in front of me. My illness will recover faster than anything!”

After everyone left, Old Madam Wang stopped Liu Shi.

“Why are you leaving? Stay here. I still need someone to serve me!”

She was just tired and wanted to rest. Not to mention that she was already 50 years old, even if she was a 20-year-old girl, she would be exhausted if she did not sleep and worked for two nights in a row.

Liu Shi was actually also tired, but she still insisted on working. This was not good. If both the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were lying on the bed, wouldn’t it arouse suspicion?

After these people left, Little Ah Yu came in with two glasses of water.

“Grandma, Mother, drink some water. You won’t be tired after drinking it!” Actually, the Myriad Spirit Water could only make people less tired, but it could not eliminate fatigue. After all, it only healed a person’s vitality. Just because the body was tired did not mean that replenishing vitality was not good. It was still beneficial.

This time, the two of them did not refuse and drank the water. Little Ah Yu was also very happy to see this.

“Grandma, Big Brother Ah You’s birthday is tomorrow. I asked Fifth Brother. He said that he’s one year older and we have to give gifts on his birthday, but Ah Yu doesn’t have any gifts.” Little Ah Yu actually didn’t want to disturb Grandma and Mother anymore because she saw that they were so tired, but she didn’t know who to ask.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Old Madam Wang: “Qin Huai is celebrating his birthday? How did you know?”

“Mr. Chi said it. I heard him ask Big Brother Ah You.” Little Ah Yu pointed at her ear and was especially proud. “Ah Yu can hear very far!”

Old Madam Wang pondered. “Since he’s already here, he can be considered half a Hu Family Villager. We have to express our gratitude.”

Liu Shi said, “His elders aren’t here either. Then I’ll make him a bowl of longevity noodles tomorrow. Take it as our blessing.”

“That’s good too. There’s no need to send him other things.” The longevity noodles had to be made with white flour. Their family didn’t have much white flour left, so they could probably make a bowl.

Little Ah Yu saw that her Grandma and Mother had discussed what gift to bring, but she had not decided on her gift.

“What is Ah Yu giving? Ah Yu also wants to give Big Brother Ah You a gift!” Little Ah Yu was so anxious that she jumped.

Old Madam Wang said, “You can play with him tomorrow. You’re still young, so there’s no need to give him any gifts.”

What could a child give anyway?

“No, Ah Yu accompanies Big Brother Ah You every day. This can’t be treated as a gift. Ah Yu wants to give him a new gift.” Little Ah Yu stroked her chin and imitated Old Master Hu’s usual thinking as she racked her brains for a solution.

What should she give?

At this moment, the people from Hu Family Village were not calm at all, especially the brothers who had just left the Wang Family. When they heard the commotion in the village, they thought that something had happened again.

In the end, they realized that some plants in the village seemed to have mutated.

“Wang, you came at the right time. Come and take a look. Your things on your land has also mutated. What’s going on!” Hu Zhengyi saw Wang Chuanfu and the others and hurriedly pulled them to the field where the children were farming.

“Look, these wild fruit vines have gone crazy. There are only a few stalks, but they’ve filled the entire land! Also, look at the fruits on them. All of them seem to be larger than regular wild fruits.”

Wang Chuanyuan subconsciously asked, “What does that taste like? Have you tried it?”

That person looked embarrassed. “Isn’t this your family’s land? How can we have the cheek to try it?”

Most importantly, they had never seen this kind of fruit before. Who knew if it was poisonous? It would not be worth it if they were poisoned to death.

Even if they were not poisonous, if they did not taste good, they would be too embarrassed to spit it out in front of so many people. After all, it was planted painstakingly by the children.

If it was delicious, it would be even more difficult. There were many people present. If it was delicious, each person would pluck one and taste it. What would be left?

Everyone simply decided not to try the fruits and waited for the Wang Family to come. In the end, after waiting for a long time, the men finally arrived. Everyone could not wait to see them try the fruits.

Wang Chuanyuan was the same as his wife. They both liked to eat. He didn’t care about anything else. He walked to the front, pulled out a red fruit, and threw it into his mouth.

“Oh, this taste is even more delicious than I imagined. It’s so sweet. What species is it? I’ve never seen it before!”

Wang Chuan smacked his lips and went to pluck the second one. In the end, Wang Chuanfu stopped him, slapping the back of his hand.

“Alright, stop acting like a child. Why are you eating so much? Just give it a try.” Wang Chuanfu took the opportunity to educate his younger brother.

However, the Wang family still did not know what had happened. They had not come to supervise the children planting wild fruits before, so they naturally did not know what these wild fruit vines were like originally.

It was only when the grandchildren of the Wang Family arrived that they realized that these wild fruits and vines were not very big when they were planted. They did not expect them to become like this after two days of rain.

“Looks like it’s really divine rain. Many people’s crops in the village have changed, especially the land in your mountainous area. It has changed the most. One look and I can tell that this fruit is very different!”

“The Wang Family is still the luckiest!”

Wang Wulang and the others thought of another aspect.

...

“Wow, we’re going to be rich!”
