They never had anything good to eat at home, as the vegetables in the field hadn’t started growing yet, so every day they had sweet potato mush with pickled vegetables and lumps.

“That…that’s not true, it’s just that we need to be thrifty,” Liao Zhaoji’s eyes darted around, betraying her unease as Ruan Jiandang questioned her about the money. She turned her head away, then seemed to reassure herself, and her voice regained strength: “Besides, the boys will need to go to college in the future. We need to save some money for that, so we can’t spend it recklessly.”
Ruan Jiandang watched her and, upon hearing this, didn’t suspect anything further. However, he still frowned deeply, knowing that he wouldn’t be able to squeeze any money out of her, so he decided to work some odd jobs for a few days to earn the money to pay back Ruan Jianguo.
Seeing that Ruan Jiandang did not pursue the issue further, Liao Zhaoji secretly breathed a sigh of relief and took the money to store it away.

Ruan Jie had suffered a head injury and naturally couldn’t go to school, so he rested at home every day.
The day after the incident, Ruan Jianguo paid a visit to the Lu Family, and on the third day, Lu Xian was brought by his parents to apologize. It was apparent that his parents were reasonable people, as they had punished Lu Xian with a beating, leaving him with injuries all over his body.
Seeing this, the anger in the Ruanlin family’s heart finally dissipated.
That issue seemed to have been put to rest.
However, it’s worth mentioning that after this incident, Ruan Jie’s relationship with Lu Xian actually improved… Of course, that came later.
Now, Ruan Jiaojiao, watching Ruan Jie’s obviously pallid face, spent every day pondering how to hunt some pheasants or other animals on the back hill to replenish her brother’s health.
But the Ruanlin family kept a close eye on her, leaving her with no opportunity, until one afternoon, she used visiting Wa Yiting as an excuse to sneak off to the back hill alone. However, halfway there, she encountered an unexpected follower—the little antagonist.
Ruan Jiaojiao had pretty much confirmed that this little antagonist knew about her “golden finger.” After a few tests and seeing he had no intention of revealing it, she let her guard down. When she saw he was following her, she didn’t mind.
The two of them entered the mountain, one behind the other.
Whether it was good luck or bad, they ran into another group of people in the mountains.
Apart from Ruan Jie, who was still recuperating at home, Ruan Jiaojiao’s other five brothers were there, along with Wa Yiting and the little girl from last time, as well as someone who made Ruan Jiaojiao freeze up the moment she saw him.
It was the male protagonist of the novel—Xiu Xun!
This was the first time Ruan Jiaojiao had seen Xiu Xun, the male protagonist of the novel. Unlike the female lead and the male second lead, Xiu Xun had a good life before his adoptive parents had their own children, so he was well-developed, much taller than his peers, and not at all skinny. Instead, he looked healthy and handsome, with fine features that hinted at his future attractiveness.
“Jiaojiao, why are you here!” Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao, Ruan Chi, who was originally taking bird eggs from a tree, hurried down and walked over to Ruan Jiaojiao, pushing her to leave: “Quick, your brother will take you back. This place isn’t for you.”
“Brother, I’m fine, I’ll be careful,” Ruan Jiaojiao dodged his hand and ran to hide behind Ruan Feng, pulling on the hem of Ruan Feng’s shirt and acting coquettishly: “I promise to be good and not move around today. I won’t get hurt. I want to eat the roasted bird eggs that my brothers make. I haven’t had them in so long, and I really miss them.”
Upon hearing this, Ruan Chi didn’t have the heart to send her back anymore.
Little Fatty was dizzied by her flattering charm and immediately beat his chubby chest, guaranteeing: “Don’t worry, sister. Your brothers will protect you. This time we’re here to collect bird eggs for Fourth Brother.”
