Tang Mian knew that Li was worried that if Zhang Lanhua and the others were to harm her, she would not be a match on her own.

However, those few people probably won't want to see her anytime soon.

Moreover, in the past few days, she had to go into the mountains to collect herbs with Brother Dashan, and she had no chance to meet Zhang Lanhua and others.

"Stop standing in the yard and continue eating!" Lu Zheng closed the door, walked to the yard and said to Tang Mian and Li.

Tang Mian and Li Shi said softly, and the three of them walked to the kitchen together.

Back to the kitchen, Zhuang Zhuang was no longer there. He probably listened to Tang Mian's words and went back to the room after finishing the meal.

Returning to the dining table again, the three of them ate their food in silence without speaking.

After eating, Tang Mian started to prepare things for going to the mountains tomorrow, and left the matter of clearing the dishes and kitchen to Li.

Early the next morning, Tang Mian and Li prepared dry food and water together.At midnight, Lu Dashan knocked on her door.

"Brother Dashan." Tang Mian opened the door and greeted Lu Dashan.

"Brother and sister." Lu Dashan also called out, but his tone was apologetic.

Originally, he was going to prepare some food, but after he went home yesterday and told Zhou Xiaohua about collecting herbs, Zhou Xiaohua acted very violently and spoke unpleasantly. He couldn't help but move his hands, and he was so angry that he didn't go to bed until midnight.I woke up late this morning and didn't have time to prepare food.

Tang Mian didn't know what he was thinking, so he called him to get something, "Brother Dashan, the things are at home. Come in and carry them."

Lu Dashan smiled and said "Hello" and walked into the house. When he saw the water and dry food in the backpack, Lu Dashan felt even more apologetic.

Thinking of his sister-in-law saying yesterday that time was tight, Lu Dashan stopped delaying, took a deep breath, picked up his backpack, turned around and looked at Tang Mian with a smile, and said: "Brothers and sisters, let's go!"

Tang Mian nodded slightly, turned around and said hello to Mrs. Li who came out of the kitchen, "Mom, let's go first."

"Come back early, take your time when collecting herbs, and pay attention to safety. Also, pay attention to your injuries, don't let them open." Mrs. Li warned naggingly.

Tang Mian smiled and responded one by one, "Mom, I understand, don't worry."

"Auntie, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to my siblings." Lu Dashan also assured.

Mrs. Li nodded, "Go!"

Seeing the two people leaving, Mrs. Li sighed slightly, debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay!

Mian Niang’s injury is not fully healed yet!

No matter how worried she was, Tang Mian and Lu Dashan still entered the mountain.

This time, Tang Mian chose a direction that he had never walked before, and he would collect more medicinal materials.

Sure enough, this time the harvest was quite fruitful.In addition to the three medicinal materials that Tang Mian had collected before, there were also three other medicinal materials that he had never collected before.

Fortunately, Tang Mian thought that the basket was on the back of Lu Dashan, so he used a large basket. After filling almost half of the basket with calamus, it could still hold other medicinal materials.

Otherwise, some of the calamus will have to be discarded.

However, Doctor Wu only collected medicinal materials that he had not picked before, and the rest had to be taken to the town early tomorrow morning to sell.

When the two of them walked out of Doctor Wu's house, the sky was already dark.

"Brother Dashan, just carry the remaining medicinal materials to my house and keep them!" Tang Mian thought for a while and said to Lu Dashan.

"Okay." Lu Dashan also agreed with Tang Mian's words.

Leave the medicinal materials at your sister's house, so you don't have to worry.

If it were left at his house, I don't know if something would happen to Zhou Xiaohua. If the medicinal materials were damaged, it would be too late to regret.

Lu Dashan carried the basket to Tang Mian's house. As soon as he put it away, Tang Mian put a bag of money in his hand, "Brother Dashan, Doctor Wu just sold a total of 180 eight cents. You get 130% of it, which is [-] two cents." You count and see if the number is correct."

Lu Dashan smiled reassuringly, "No need to count, I believe in my brothers and sisters."

"Brother Dashan, let's count. What if I count wrongly?" Tang Mian said jokingly.

If the number is really wrong, it will cause another fuss when Zhou Xiaohua finds out about it.

Seeing Tang Mian's insistence, Lu Dashan opened the cloth bag and counted the copper coins. No more, no less, exactly 130 two coins.

"Brother and sister, the number is correct. I'll leave first. I'll come find you tomorrow morning."

Tang Mian nodded lightly and said hello.

After Lu Dashan left, Mrs. Li immediately stepped forward and asked with concern: "Mian Niang, how are you? Are you feeling uncomfortable with the wound?"

"Mom, don't worry, there's nothing wrong with me." Tang Mian said with a comforting smile.

After hearing this, Mrs. Li looked Tang Mian up and down again, and then breathed a sigh of relief after making sure she was fine. "It's fine. Go wash your hands quickly and get ready to eat."

"it is good."

As soon as Tang Mian finished speaking, Zhuang Zhuang ran towards her, blinked his bright eyes, and greeted her with a sweet voice, "Mom."

"Be good!" Tang Mian rubbed the little guy's head happily.

She found that as long as she was often away from home, Zhuangzhuang's voice would be sweeter when he talked to her, and he would stick to her more.

Just like now, her voice was so sweet that she said, "Mom, I wrote new words today. I'll show them to you after dinner."

"Okay!" Tang Mian responded briskly, leading the little guy into the kitchen to wash hands and serve dishes.

Looking at the freshly cooked fried meat, steamed eggs and vegetarian soup on the table, Tang Mian knew that because she went to the mountains to collect herbs, her mother had arranged the richest meal of the day in the evening.

"Mian Niang, I just met Zhi'an and Zhiqiang when I was walking outside. They asked me to tell you that the county magistrate has already written Yanbang's recommendation letter." Lu Zheng just sat down and said.

Tang Mian paused slightly while holding the bowl, nodded and said, "Okay."

"I didn't expect the county magistrate to be so cheerful!" Lu Zheng said with a sigh.

Tang Mian smiled and said nothing, although she was a little surprised.

However, my sister said that there are a few more talented people in Lu'an County, which are all due to my brother-in-law's political achievements.

She didn't understand much about these things and believed that her brother-in-law must have his reasons for doing this.

"Mian Niang, how was the harvest today?" Li asked as she scooped half a bowl of soup.

Tang Mian answered while picking up vegetables: "It's okay. Doctor Wu collected part of the medicine, and Brother Dashan shared 130 and two cents. There are some medicinal materials left, and Brother Dashan and I will go to the town to sell them tomorrow."

Li nodded, "It's good if you gain something. If you don't gain anything, Zhou Xiaohua will probably make trouble."

"Mom, as long as Brother Dashan is here, Zhou Xiaohua can't cause any trouble." Tang Mian said with relief.

But as Tang Mian said, when Zhou Xiaohua wanted to make trouble, she was suppressed by Lu Dashan.

Lu Dashan returned home after carrying the coins. Zhou Xiaohua was absentmindedly cooking dinner when she heard a knock on the door. She quickly dropped the shovel in her hand and ran to open the door.

"How is it, how is it?" Zhou Xiaohua asked eagerly as soon as she opened the door.

Lu Dashan frowned, glanced at Zhou Xiaohua, stepped into the house silently, turned around and closed the door.
