This child is quite fierce!
Indeed, in Rong Li's eyes, Xia Muxin was just a child, and a fierce and unpleasant one at that.
"How could it be her?"
Seeing Rong Li so lost in thought, Zhao Qiushui curiously leaned forward. However, upon catching sight of Xia Muxin, her expression darkened. No wonder Li Gongzi was unhappy today; it turned out he had run into this Jinx.
It seemed that whenever Zhao Qiushui encountered Xia Muxin, nothing good ever happened.
Meanwhile, after tiring herself out from teaching a lesson, Xia Muxin finally removed her foot from the back of the person beneath her. She tossed aside the stick she had been holding and, without even glancing at the four people tied up in a heap, picked up what she needed and called out to Summer Forest, "Dad, let's go!"
Summer Forest was still in a daze. When he heard Xia Muxin speak, he quickly grabbed the shoulder pole and basket to follow her.
Fortunately, they had bought a few pairs of scissors today; otherwise, she would have really been at a disadvantage. As Xia Muxin walked along the road, her first thought was to be grateful for having bought those scissors...
In no time, it was already the time agreed upon with Su Yan-Chu. For the past few days, Xia Muxin had gone up the mountain daily. The game meat she collected was plentiful each time, and she also gathered Gynostemma. Although she couldn't guarantee whether Ye Feng would come looking for her, she still needed to be well-prepared.
She also had to visit Town every day. Their home had acquired quite a bit of furniture and supplies; the several Thatched Cottages were starting to feel increasingly cramped. Xia Muxin wondered if she should build another room in the back to store things.
Strangely enough, the Wu Family and others hadn't caused any trouble these past few days. According to Songzi, they had been running to the Wang family all day long, seemingly preparing for some harvest. Meanwhile, other villagers were lamenting; they had been looking forward to this harvest all year long, but the fruits of their labor were being taken away by others. This left them with little motivation to work hard.
In these past few days, the entire Daimiao Village had fallen into a gloomy atmosphere, with only Xia Muxin's family cheerfully going out every day to gather firewood and sell it.
Many villagers were curious about how much money could be made from selling firewood, especially since they had seen the family bringing home new items each day.
Whenever they asked, Xia Muxin would skillfully deflect their inquiries with the best words. After a few questions, the villagers felt embarrassed; after all, they were fully capable individuals, yet they couldn't compare to a family with disabilities. It would be shameful to admit that they were slacking off, and those who didn't know might think they were just lazy.
Today, Xia Muxin woke up early, and the first thing she did was check on the Apple Snails. For the past few days, she had been changing their water daily to help them settle any impurities.
The whole family knew that Xia Muxin was going to cook at the Fortune and Longevity Restaurant. They spent the night worrying—on one hand, concerned about her cooking skills, and on the other, her safety. So as soon as Xia Muxin got out of bed, they quickly followed her.
Having previously ground cornmeal under Xia Muxin's guidance, Aunt Xia had learned how to make steamed buns. Thus, she began preparing the dough for breakfast early in the morning.
After hastily eating a few buns, Xia Muxin packed the carefully selected Apple Snails into a bamboo tube with some water and placed it into a Bamboo Basket.
“Muxin, let me accompany you!”
Summer Forest still felt uneasy about the encounter with thugs last time. Seeing Xia Muxin grab her basket and head out, he quickly set aside what he was doing and rushed after her.
