Chapter 692 Send Away
So the family went to the medicine field again.
Having been to Jiang's house and the town many times, they already knew what Jiang Fubao looked like.
Therefore, he saw Jiang Fubao in the crowd at a glance and walked towards her.
"Fubao——" He Xinghua shouted across half an acre of land.
"Huh?" Jiang Fubao turned around in confusion when he heard his name.
Like Jiang Shoujia, Jiang Fubao's face immediately turned cold when she saw that it was the Sun family who called her.
"Fubao, are these the medicinal herbs grown in your village? Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have thought they were weeds in the mountains. I really couldn't recognize them."
He Xinghua was afraid that Jiang Fubao would also run back home like Jiang Shoujia did, so she didn't care about her face and ran over.
Standing in front of Jiang Fubao, she asked breathlessly and flatteringly.
"Well, yes, what's the matter?" Jiang Fubao has been a polite child since he was young. He is never rude when talking to others, but the Sun family is so annoying.
They know that their family doesn't want to pay attention to them, but they still keep pestering them. Do they really think that others can't see that greedy face?
Fortunately, everyone in my family is smart. If he was a softie, he would have been eaten up by the Sun family long ago.
Thinking of his second aunt who had suffered since childhood, Jiang Fubao's tone became even colder.
Like winter hasn't come yet.
He Xinghua shivered from the cold.
"Oh, Grandma He just came to see you. Your second aunt loves you so much, it's okay for you to call me grandma. Just call me grandma from now on. There's no need to be so distant with me. We are all family. Look, it's almost noon. Fubao, you haven't eaten yet, right? Why don't you come to my house for dinner? Grandma will make you an egg custard for you alone. How about that?"
He Xinghua started to get close.
She thought that eggs could seduce Jiang Fubao, but in fact, no one cared about eggs in Jiang Fubao's house, and the boiled eggs left over from breakfast were eaten by the servants.
Poor people cannot imagine the life of rich people.
He Xinghua thought that no matter how rich one was, it was nothing more than eating eggs frequently, so she took out eggs to treat Jiang Fubao, thinking that she was already giving her face enough.
Jiang Fubao wanted to laugh when he heard it.
She was being helpful even when there was nothing to do. The Sun family was so stingy that they were reluctant to bring even some worthless wild vegetables from home every time. Yet suddenly they said they wanted to treat her to a meal, with egg custard.
It doesn't take much thought to know that the Sun family is holding back on something.
I’m afraid he’s planning to take over the medicinal fields.
Jiang Fubao guessed that the news of Zhoujia Village growing medicinal herbs had spread to Sunjia Village.
Although Village Chief Zhou said that he would try his best to keep it a secret from the villagers, there is no such thing as a wall that is completely airtight.
The daughters-in-law of Zhoujia Village are all married from other villages. At least eight out of ten of them are concerned about their natal families. The news will definitely spread; it is only a matter of time.
I guess the Sun family came here just for this matter.
"No need, there is a maid at home to do it." Jiang Fubao continued to reply to her coldly.
After saying that, he squatted down and watched the growth of the medicine.
He didn't even give them a single extra glance.
He Xinghua tugged at her granddaughter's sleeve and whispered in her ear, "Wang'er, go and ask your sister Fubao to come to our house for dinner."
Sun Wang'er is one year younger than Jiang Fubao, but there is a huge difference in their body shapes.
One is thin but has a great complexion, a face full of collagen, and thick black hair that glows. The other is short and has a yellow complexion, so thin that he seems like he could be blown away by the wind.
It looks like a dead wood that has become a spirit.
If you don’t know, you would think that the two are three or four years apart in age.
Sun Wang'er is timid, but her grandmother has spoken, so she has to go whether she wants to or not, otherwise she will suffer.
She timidly walked to Jiang Fubao's side and whispered in a mosquito-like voice, "Sister Fubao, can you come to our house for dinner?"
It was the first time the two spoke to each other. Although Jiang Fubao hated the Sun family, she felt sad when she saw Sun Wang'er became so thin, so her tone softened a little.
"No, there's someone cooking at home."
"Sister Fubao, what are you doing?" Wang'er didn't know what to say. Seeing her grandmother winking at her, she could only squat down and make small talk.
"To see how the medicinal herbs are growing." Jiang Fubao didn't ignore her and replied casually.
"What kind of medicinal material is this?"
"Sister Fubao, you are so amazing. You can do everything."
"Sister Fubao, I heard that you asked Zhoujia Village to grow medicinal herbs?"
"Sister Fubao, can you let our Sunjia Village plant it too?"
Following He Xinghua's gaze and lip shape, Sun Wanger gradually turned the topic to medicinal materials.
Jiang Fubao rolled his eyes.
Finally, his true colors were revealed.
She guessed correctly that the Sun family came here just for medicinal materials. Seeing that she ignored the Sun family, He Xinghua sent her granddaughter, who was about her age, to come and get close to her.
Although she felt sorry for Sun Wang'er, it didn't mean that she would let Sunjia Village grow medicinal herbs because of this.
In her opinion, the villagers of Sunjia Village are not only disunited, but many of them look mean. If they are allowed to plant crops in Sunjia Village, not to mention that the Sun family will use their reputation as relatives of the Jiang family to show off, which will cause trouble for them.
Just talking about the people in Sunjia Village, there are many who are cunning and dishonest. I guess they won’t grow the medicinal herbs properly. When the time comes, there might be a big fuss when they try to harvest the herbs. It’s troublesome just thinking about it.
Jiang Fubao couldn't possibly agree, but she didn't refuse directly. The Sun family was so shameless that they would definitely pester her and might even go to the town to find her second aunt.
Second aunt had caught a cold recently and was feeling a little unwell. Jiang Fubao didn't want them to disturb her, so she rolled her eyes and came up with an idea, deciding to send them away first.
She whispered, "Oh, you're late. Why didn't you come earlier? All the herbs in Zhoujia Village have been planted. I don't need that many herbs, let alone that many medicinal seeds. So, if I don't have enough herbs in the future, I will consider looking for your village to plant them."
Hearing this, He Xinghua and Sun Mugen were overjoyed.
Jiangjia Village has only been growing medicinal herbs for a few years, and they are running out of supplies so soon. They have to ask Zhoujia Village to grow them. Sunjia Village will have to wait for two years at most.
Although it is impossible to plant it so quickly, the fact that Jiang Fubao agreed to it shows that she is indeed easy to fool.
For the first time, He Xinghua gave her granddaughter an affirmative look.
Sun Wang'er was not happy at all.
Although she is cowardly, she is not stupid at all. Sister Fubao seems to have agreed, but in fact she is just looking for an excuse to drive her family away.
But grandpa and grandma didn't understand the meaning of her words and thought that Sister Fubao agreed.
But she didn't say much.
In this family, she gets up earlier than the chickens, sleeps later than the dogs, and works harder than the cows in the village chief's family, but she is not well fed or well clothed. She only hopes to get married early and leave this family.
She doesn't ask for a good life, she just wants to live like a human being. If she is lucky enough to be like her aunt, it would be even better.
