Modern Couples' Life in Women's Society

Chapter 87 Accident
"Miss, what is this? Are you so happy that you came here specially because of the fruit on this tree?" Seeing Xiao Tong's smiling face, Qing Sheng asked hurriedly.

"Well, this is wolfberry, which is a very good medicinal material. I didn't expect that there is also wolfberry here, but it seems that no one knows its efficacy. Fortunately, I know, so I must not waste it in the future." Xiao Tong's voice was light and happy, very happy.

"Really? That's great." Qingsheng was also happy. He had no doubts about Xiao Tong's words, nor would he question how Xiao Tong knew it. Now, Xiao Tong is in her mind, and everything is possible. of.

"Well, we're going around, make sure." Xiao Tong and Qing Sheng walked ahead while talking, Zigui followed silently behind, puzzled in his heart, but expressionless on his face, the people around were already used to her manner silence.

After wandering around, she wandered around near Shenshi, and when she returned to the carriage, she met Mrs. Li Yu who was waiting for her. He was also surnamed Li, and others called him Li Shi.

Xiao Tong didn't talk nonsense, and immediately said wolfberry is a good thing, but in order to avoid other problems, he didn't say it was a medicinal material, and only asked him to call people to pick the ripe wolfberry.

No matter Mrs. Li or the person who was summoned, they were dubious about Xiao Tong's words. It was a fruit that children picked and played with before, is it really a good thing?But because he didn't dare to disobey Xiao Tong's order, and because Xiao Tong said that he would be paid, he immediately actively prepared tools to pick them.

Lycium barbarum is a deciduous shrub, and the tree height is generally between 1.5 meters and [-] meters. In addition, mature wolfberries generally hang down, so it is convenient to pick.Xiao Tong acted as the on-site commander, from picking to drying to storing, he explained in detail the matters that should be paid attention to in each step.

A group of people stopped at Xushi, and the harvest was also good. Xiao Tong ate casually with everyone, and then explained how to dry and store them, and taught them carefully.Take baskets as the unit, and every basket you hand over is counted as five copper coins. Basically, everyone who participates in the picking has a basket.A basket of five copper coins is really a great harvest. Today, if you earn five coins in less than half a day, if you spend a whole day, you will have three baskets of fifteen copper coins.

Xiao Tong waited for the crazy crowd to calm down, and then added that today was just a demonstration, but it will not be counted like this in the future.The goji berries picked in the future must be dried in the Zhuangzi, and then handed over after drying. A full basket will cost ten cents. The dried goji berries will be stored in the Zhuangzi, waiting for her to dispose of when she returns from Maoling. .

After Li Yu came back, she ordered her to go back to the mansion and deliver a letter to Fu Ling, so that she would not have to follow them away, and then fully assisted Fu Ling in handling the matter, and searched for wolfberry trees on a large scale and bought them.

In the end, Xiao Tong worriedly conveyed the theory of sustainable development, asking them to cherish wolfberry trees in the future and never pick immature ones. Seeing them all smiling and agreeing, it was over.

When they got close to the house, they just washed and washed and rested in the Zhuangzi. After they rested, Li Yu and her husband were still a little dizzy. Is this the legendary incompetent lady who is difficult to serve and has a bad temper?It seems that she can't touch it at all. Under such poor conditions, Zhuangzi has no reason to rest. Today, she knows so much and is so approachable, but she is incompetent and grumpy.

Li Yu and his wife looked at their father, who had recovered a lot after drinking the medicine, and went back all the way in doubt, resting in doubt all night.

Xiao Yuan August 16th, [-]
The next day, the four of Xiao Tong (including the coachman) got up and had breakfast, then went on the road again, leaving behind Li Yu and his wife who were still a little unresponsive, booing in their hearts, how could this young lady not be like the noble person in their impression?
Because time is not considered urgent, Xiao Tong and his party only need to arrive within the Maoling Prefecture before dark, half a day's route and a day to catch up.

When we arrived at Maoshi, the coachman mentioned the village ahead, crossed the river at the entrance of the village, and walked for another quarter of an hour to the inn that Mo Li had mentioned before.Xiao Tongqingsheng and the two couldn't help laughing when they heard this. The car bumped so badly that they could finally rest.But I never thought that there would be an accident in the middle of this short journey.

After passing the village, I saw the legendary river. It was said to be a river, but the water was very deep and the water flowed slowly. If it was wider, it could be regarded as a lake.The carriage went all the way downstream, and Xiao Tong saw a group of people approaching cursing, who seemed to be people from the village, surrounded by a man who was approaching middle age. But the uncontrollable smile on the corner of his mouth revealed his true emotions.

"Things that are shameless, wasted my husband's education and expectations, should have been executed long ago, fortunately, Mr. Sima is still protecting him..."

"I also agreed with the Mo family to get married at the end of the year, but such a thing happened to the groom, it's really embarrassing..."

"It's not like he's the only son in the Sima family. The husband's son is a thousand times better than him. If you marry him, you can only be happy if you want to come to the Mo family..."

……

In just a short time of meeting, I heard so much information, the true portrayal of things like like people gathering into groups, this group of people are like... like this..., Xiao Tong suddenly couldn't find the words to describe, just Know that someone may be or has lost their life because of them.

"Let's go, find out where the accident happened." Xiao Tong raised the curtain of the car and said to the driver sitting outside.

"Yes, miss." The coachman hurriedly agreed, speeding up.

"It should be here, miss." After a while, Zigui with the best eyes found out what happened. As soon as Xiao Tong said "Stop", the carriage stopped immediately. Due to inertia, Xiao Tong was almost thrown out of the carriage. De Zigui hurriedly helped Xiao Tong get out of the car.

The wet river was trampled in a mess. When I looked into the river, small bubbles kept popping up on the muddy water, but there was no ripple at all. It seemed that the people underwater had stopped struggling.

"Hurry up, go down and save people." After Xiao Tong finished speaking, he was about to take off his shoes and jump down. Qingsheng hugged him and said urgently, "Miss, it's dangerous underwater, so don't do it. Elder sister Zigui, save people quickly!"

"Yes...but I can't swim..." Zigui wanted to take action after hearing this, but hesitantly said that he couldn't swim.

"Oh, sister Mao, hurry up!" Qingsheng called the coachman again, but the coachman couldn't drink water either.

"Miss, don't worry about it, everyone can't swim. He was executed by sinking into the water. Presumably he made a big mistake. Miss, don't worry about it." Seeing that things had come to this point, Qingsheng was afraid that Xiao Tong would still have the heart to save others. Regardless, he hugged her and dragged her to the carriage.

"Celebrate your birthday, let go." Xiao Tong said in a deep voice, "I know how to drink water, if you delay for a while, people will really be hopeless."

"Miss..." Qingsheng shouted, it was the first time she faced Xiao Tong's gloomy aura, she couldn't believe it, the strength in her hands loosened, Xiao Tong immediately broke free, ran to the river to take off her shoes , staring fiercely at Zi Gui who wanted to stop her, and plunged into the river.
