"Sister Tong, you are so kind to us!"

The fourth child, Ji Xiujing, grabbed the corner of Ruan Hantong's clothes, looked at Ji Xiuping pitifully and said, "Brother, can we go to sister Tong's house for dinner?"

Ji Xiuping also felt sorry for his younger siblings. He hesitated for a while and nodded: "Okay, then I'll trouble Sister Tong."

He smiled warmly at Ruan Hantong, and then quietly glanced at Mu Daiyao's tight door with a vicious look, feeling unwilling to do so.

How could you let her go so easily? You must teach her a lesson!

Don’t you like to pretend to be sick? Let’s see how she pretends to be sick.

Seeing his younger siblings follow Ruan Hantong out, he pulled the second oldest Ji Xiukai to his side and whispered a few words.

Ji Xiukai's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.

After a while, the five brothers and sisters of the Ji family walked out of the courtyard, and several small black snakes were slowly crawling in along the crack of Mu Daiyao's door...

If this woman dares to confront them, she will never get any good results from her!

…

"Who did this?"

Not long after they went out, Mu Daiyao opened her eyes on the bed, stretched out her hand and grabbed the two black snakes by seven inches with precision and strength.

The system hesitated: "Children are not sensible..."

"Not sensible?"

Mu Daiyao sneered, pinched the two snakes without hesitation, and threw them directly into the house where the children lived and Ji Xiuping's study.

system:……

"Host, if you keep confronting the children like this, you won't be able to complete your mission."

The system said earnestly: "I am also very troubled by your behavior!"

"Then why don't you give me another mission?"

Mu Daiyao said casually: "Do I have to rely on a few white-eyed wolves to change my destiny? People live their own lives, and you are not as knowledgeable as a woman like me."

The system was choked by her: "Well, what do you want?"

"Well, although I can't educate them, I can make more money and improve their quality of life."

Mu Daiyao smiled slyly: "And maybe I'll make money. I'll be in a good mood and I won't bother to get angry with them. Do you want to consider letting me make money first?"

The system was silent for a long time without saying a word.

Mu Daiyao was not in a hurry: "Hey, without money, how can I take care of them? I can only make them live or die."

"Can."

The system finally spoke again, but in a gritted tone: "If the host earns twenty taels of silver within three days, he will receive a reward - an out-of-print recipe."

Mu Daiyao's eyes lit up.

In her previous life, she wanted to open a restaurant of her own, but for the sake of the face of those unfilial sons, she had been working as a cow and horse in the Ji family, and the dishes she learned carefully could only be fed to the dogs!

If she can complete the task and get the recipe, she will be one step closer to her dream!

But making twenty taels of silver in three days is not something you can do just by selling cakes.

Mu Daiyao frowned slightly, suddenly thinking that there seemed to be a lot of medicinal materials on the mountain behind the village.

It's better to go up the mountain and look for it. If you can find something rare, one plant will be enough!

Just in the past, in order to sell her to a wealthy family as a maid, her mother-in-law had asked her to learn medical skills from a barefoot doctor for two days, and she was still good at identifying medicinal materials.

She did what she thought of. Seeing that the sky was not completely dark yet, Mu Daiyao didn't waste any time. She picked up the flint basket and sickle and hurried up the mountain.

As for those little brats, when they come back, let’s first think about how to deal with the “gifts” in the room.

It was dark and the road was slippery, so Mu Daiyao was careful every step.

Halfway up the mountain, she found a few medicinal plants.

But these ordinary things are far from twenty taels of silver...

Mu Daiyao hesitated whether to go down the mountain, but out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of a small yellow flower on the cliff.

That is Inula, which can clear away heat and detoxify, which is rare!

Mu Daiyao's eyes suddenly lit up. Such a big plant could be sold for at least five taels of silver!

She held the torch and carefully leaned towards the cliff. When she grabbed the inula, her foot suddenly slipped and she fell down the cliff.

It’s over…

Mu Daiyao's mind went blank, thinking that she would be injured even if she didn't die, but her wrist was tightly held by a strong hand.

"Hold on tight."

A low, steady, and somewhat familiar voice sounded, making Mu Dai Yao unconsciously startled, and she instinctively grabbed the man's wrist.

The man pulled her up with just a little effort.

"Girl, you...why is it you?"

As soon as she landed, she was faced with a handsome and dark face.

The man's phoenix eyes were staring at her closely, with beads of sweat dripping from his high nose, and his thin lips were tightly pursed, with a very unhappy expression.

It's actually Ji Zhixu?

Mu Daiyao fell into silence looking at his tall body and the bow and arrow behind his back.

She and him were nothing more than a matchmaker at the behest of her parents, and there was no way she liked her. His indifference to her in his previous life was mostly due to his children's instigation, and he never hurt her.

If you think about it this way, they don't have much to worry about.

Ji Zhixu frowned even more when he saw her silence. He didn't like this woman, and he only married her to take care of the children. He didn't expect that she couldn't even take care of the children well, and she came to make trouble for him late at night!

His eyes fell on the backpack behind her.

So many medicinal materials? Why is this woman going up the mountain to collect medicines in the middle of the night?

His tone was cold: "Didn't I ask you to take care of the children at home? They also went up the mountain?"

Mu Daiyao saw that his attitude was not good and rolled her eyes when she thought of the bad things those children said in front of Ji Zhixu in her previous life.

"My husband... there is no food at home, and all the money was given to Xiupian to go to school, so I went up the mountain to find some food and collect some medicine in exchange for money..."

When Ji Zhixu heard this, he couldn't help but frown.

The children all said that this woman was extravagant and lavish at home, often gave them instructions on their work, and beat and scolded them.

But now she actually came to the mountains in the middle of the night in search of food...

Ji Zhixu didn't believe it if she said it was just a show. The mountains were so dangerous. If he hadn't happened to come here just now to see if there were any prey, her life would have been lost.

He was silent, intending to go back and ask the children what was going on. When he faced Mu Daiyao, he still had a cold face and casually threw her a pheasant that he had taken off the trap before: "Take this

Come down the mountain, pheasant, I will come back in two days to hunt some more prey, and go to the market to exchange money for your family."

Mu Daiyao wanted to nod, but suddenly her thoughts changed.

Those brats are used to complaining in front of their father. Now, isn't she just able to do the same thing to him in return?

Seeing Ji Zhixu turning around and leaving, she reached out and grabbed the man's clothes.

"Ms. sir, I'm afraid..."

Mu Daiyao pinched her thigh quietly, and tears suddenly overflowed from her eyes. She looked pitifully at the man and said softly: "Listen, I heard that there are ferocious beasts on this mountain. I just accidentally sprained my foot...

"

Ji Zhixu frowned slightly, his expression a little unnatural, and he was obviously hesitating.

Seeing that this trick worked, Mu Daiyao secretly laughed in her heart, and her tone became more and more aggrieved. She held his hand and said softly: "I don't want to delay my husband's affairs, but, just..."

As she spoke, tears rolled down her face, and she looked pitiful.

Ji Zhixu felt something strange in his heart.

The reason why he doesn't like this wife is because the children say that she is a fierce and domineering woman who treats them harshly. But how can she be so delicate and fragile like someone who treats children harshly?

"Stop crying, I'll collect the trap and follow you down the mountain."

Ji Zhixu sighed and took the backpack from her back: "Just wait for me here. I'll be here soon."

Mu Daiyao heard him say to collect the trap, but her thoughts changed.

Ji Zhixu is a well-known hunter from all over the country, and she is very good at laying traps and traps. If she can learn something, it will give her some protection if she wants to start her own business in the future.

"I'm going with my husband. My husband has been working hard on hunting, and I want to help him."

Ji Zhixu couldn't stand her coquettish behavior, so he coughed and nodded: "Okay... you should be more careful."

Mu Daiyao nodded, and obediently stretched out her hand to hold Ji Zhixu's sleeve, leaving the system stunned.

Is this the host it always draws its sword from?!

Don't be so soft because you are possessed by the little goblin in the mountains!
