Chapter 131 With my sister-in-law here, no one dares to bully me

Listening to the old man's words, Mrs. Wang felt uncomfortable, but she also knew that her man was an honest man, so she nodded silently.

"Don't worry, I understand."

Alas, she didn't dare to offend Tao Xi and his wife. After all, everyone in Taomu Village was facing them at the moment.

Tao Xi and Jian Erni walked towards home. Jian Erni was not in a high mood, and Tao Xi comforted her in a low voice.

"Okay, now that we've made it clear, if they dare to go out and talk nonsense in the future, let's not be polite to them."

"I understand, sister-in-law."

Jian Erni was touched. Her sister-in-law was so willing to go out of her way for her, and she felt very happy.

When the two returned home, Jian Shiming, who heard about the incident, stood at the door of the courtyard, "Have you made it clear?"

If he couldn't tell, he would have to ask Wang Laogen how he taught his children!

Seeing his serious expression, Tao Xi understood that he was angry and immediately said:

"Don't worry, I made it clear. It's because Hu Ziniang has a bad memory and forgot to tell others.

The old Wang family thought that Erni had agreed, so they were so excited that they talked too much."

"Brother, don't worry, no one dares to bully me as long as my sister-in-law is here."

Jian Erni had a smile on her face. If anyone dared to bully her, her sister-in-law would definitely beat them up.

Seeing that she was in pretty good condition, Jian Shiming felt relieved, and Tao Xi sent people to the house to comfort her softly.

After entering the space at night, Tao Xi was very proud to see the potatoes and sweet potatoes that she had induced to sprout.

In order to satisfy Gu Yan's request, Tao Xi has been very busy during this period. In another day, she should be able to hand in work.

She wanted to take the initiative to find Gu Yan, but she didn't expect that Gu Yan was even more out of control than her. Instead, he hurriedly came to Taomu Village to look for her.

"Sister-in-law, how's the matter with the seeds?"

Taking advantage of the planting season now, he wanted to get the seeds quickly so that the people could plant them.

Tao Xi looked at Gu Yan's anxious face and said, "I have already said hello to that person. Don't worry, Mr. Gu, that kind of thing is on the way to be transported now."

"Can I meet that person?"

Gu Yan was obviously very anxious and wanted to deliver the goods on the spot, but Tao Xi shook his head and said:

"Mr. Gu, you also know that those who can get these seeds are all capable, but they are all people in the world. Naturally, they are not willing to deal with people in your officialdom. I hope you can understand."

Well, she will never expose herself.

Hearing this, Gu Yan sighed helplessly, "I understand, I understand, but then I have to ask my sister-in-law to help me deal with it.

Don’t worry, I can’t spare you this money, and I will never treat you badly.”

"That's fine, but that person has a good heart and says that he can't drive up prices and just buy the seeds at the previous price."

Tao Xi nodded in agreement. He could make a small profit and help the people. Tao Xi felt happy.

Gu Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, "She is really a good person. Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely not give her any money!"

"Um."

Tao Xi and Jian Shiming looked at each other. Jian Shiming already had a guess in his mind, but he would not ask or talk more.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for taking the trouble."

Gu Yan felt relieved and decided to stay in their small courtyard for dinner.

Tao Xi:……

Looking at the food Gu Yan took out of the bag, she felt that this guy did it on purpose.

But this time Tao Xi would not make rabbit meat, otherwise Gu Yan would have thought how good their life was.

So Tao Xi made a very classic farm meal today, wild vegetable porridge and wild vegetable soup.

No matter how good Tao Xi's cooking skills were, the bitter wild vegetables would only taste like that. Gu Yan finally truly experienced the taste of farm food.

"Ah this..."

As soon as it reached his mouth, Gu Yan almost spit it out, but he raised his eyes and looked at the other people with normal expressions, and held back the wild vegetable.

"Sir, isn't it delicious?"

Tao Xi was in a good mood, "I'm really sorry. I should have entertained you well, but all the rabbits at home are pregnant, and we are still waiting for the baby rabbits to be born.

There is no other meat, so I can only serve you with simple meals."

Well, the meat in the kitchen has been hidden in the space by her.

Even though the few children who had suffered a lot were not used to the sudden change in food, everyone still remained calm.

"Anyway, I can eat whatever you can eat."

Gu Yan resisted the urge to vomit and gulped down the wild vegetable porridge in the bowl. It was too unpalatable and was filled with water.

Jian Shiyi, a little drama queen, said, "Sir, you are very kind, but this wild vegetable porridge is already very rare.

In the past, when we were fleeing, we ate grass roots and tree barks, but sometimes these were not available and we could only eat some Guanyin soil."

At such a young age, he had his head lowered and looked pitiful. Tao Xi couldn't help but think that this kid would definitely be an Oscar winner in modern times.

"Guanyin soil?"

Gu Yan was shocked. Although he had always known that refugees were difficult, he had never experienced it personally.

"Yes, although that food can temporarily fill your stomach, if you eat too much and cannot digest it, you will die."

Tao Xi nodded seriously, which made Gu Yan feel uncomfortable. He always felt that Tao Xi was deliberately scaring him.

So Gu Yan looked at Jian Shiming who was eating calmly on one side, "Brother Jian, is this really true?"

"Um."

Jian Shiming nodded calmly, "Brother Gu, does he know how many people there were in Taomu Village when we fled?"

"How many?"

Gu Yan looked at Jian Shiming seriously, not daring to move his chopsticks anymore. He really couldn't eat the wild vegetables.

Jian Shiming naturally saw through Gu Yan's thoughts and said: "There are more than 300 people. Now we only have more than 200 people left in Taomu Village, which is one-third less.

Those people either starved to death on the road, were killed by horse bandits, or died of poisoning or illness, there were all kinds of things."

"Our parents were killed by horse bandits!"

Jian Erni was filled with indignation, and her eyes were full of hatred when she mentioned this.

Fortunately, the enemy is gone. This is the only thing Jian Shiming can comfort himself with.

"Brother Jian, my condolences."

Gu Yan suddenly realized that he was too pampered and did not know the situation of Brother Jian and the others. He was ashamed of his dislike.

Thinking like this, Gu Yan took a sip of the wild vegetable soup. The taste was very astringent, and it was rare to taste a hint of sweetness after tasting it.

After finishing the meal in silence, Tao Xi thought to himself that Gu Yan would probably never want to come here to eat again next time.

After sending the people away, Tao Xi also wanted to go to town. Several children in the Jian family wanted to go, and they all stared at Tao Xi with bright eyes.

"Okay, everyone goes."

"What about at home?"

After achieving his goal, Jian Shiyi began to worry about the little rabbit at home, fearing that someone would steal it.

Jian Erni thought of Wang Zhou next door and suddenly had an idea, "Wang Zhou seems to be at home, let's ask him to help look after the house.

Sister-in-law, do you think it’s okay to invite him to dinner when we come back later?”

There was a ray of light in her eyes. Unfortunately, Tao Xi was also very nervous and did not notice anything wrong. Instead, she agreed:

"good."
