The Pastoral Empress Merchant

Chapter 12
Could it be because she was too tired in her previous life, so God made her own choice to let her rest and relax in another time and space?

Hehehe, if that's the case, she would give her the middle finger.Letting her, a person living at the top of the pyramid, fall to the bottom all of a sudden, is really unacceptable to ordinary people, this is a big joke!It's best to let her find something valuable on the mountain, otherwise... Humph!
It took Mu Jinxi half-walking and half-stopping all the way for half an hour before finally reaching the foot of the mountain in Xiushui Village.Looking up, fortunately, I can see the top, and I think it will not be too high.

It would have been easy for her to climb this mountain with the body she had in her previous life, but now...it's a little difficult.

Mu Jinxi took a deep breath, and after doing warm-up exercises on the spot, she chose a path that seemed to be walked by people and walked slowly up the mountain.

Mu Jinxi didn't know how long she had walked until she was panting and sweating profusely. She saw a relatively empty place and was about to stop to rest. When she looked at the surrounding environment again, a fuss suddenly appeared beside her. the sound of.

"Huh? Xiao Xi? Why are you coming to the mountain again? I heard that you were sick before, so it should be just right now, and you are here again just when you are in good health. Really... really makes Aunt Niu wonder Tell me what you're doing."

Mu Jinxi was startled, and looked back reflexively, a tall aunt in coarse linen clothes with firewood on her back came over with a helpless and nervous expression.

Mu Jinxi quickly found the memory in her mind.This tall aunt is Aunt Niu and a villager in Xiushui Village, but she is a widow. Her husband died several years ago, leaving her with a young son.But fortunately, she is also capable, so that her husband's life will not be hopeless after the death of her husband.

At the same time, Niu Dashen is also a warm-hearted person. Although he scolded the original owner for what happened at the beginning, he still couldn't help but soften his heart. He treated the original owner like a daughter, and would speak out to defend the original owner when he was bullied. He is a pungent owner. .

Just her words... She used to come here often?Why is she not impressed?

"Aunt Niu, are you going up the mountain to cut firewood?" Mu Jinxi asked with a smile.

Aunt Niu walked up to Mu Jinxi, glanced at her pale face, sighed softly and said, "You child really makes people wonder what to say about you, you—"

"Aunt Niu," Mu Jinxi hurriedly interrupted her, and said, "I just came here unknowingly, just to see the scenery, there is no other meaning, really."

Although she didn't understand what Aunt Niu meant, she was sure that the meaning was not good, and it might have something to do with that so-and-so.She is no longer the Mu Jinxi she used to be. What happened in the past has nothing to do with her. It is her limit to accept Xiaobao. Everything else is delusional!
Aunt Niu looked at her suspiciously, wanted to say something, paused for a while, and finally gave up, just sighed: "You, Aunt Niu really hopes that you will figure it out earlier, so as to save... Forget it, Aunt Niu won't say much. I'm done, lest you cry again later."

"Aunt Niu, thank you for your concern. I understand. I really just came here to relax and go back in a while. You should go back quickly. Da Zhu is probably still at home waiting for you to go back and cook." Mu Jinxi Busily said.

Aunt Niu waved her hand and said, "What's the rush? If he can't wait, he can do it himself. He won't starve to death."

Mu Jinxi burst out laughing, feeling very novel.In this day and age, whether it is a rich family or a poor family, they are very precious to their sons, but Aunt Niu doesn't seem to think so. Even if her husband died and there was only one son left, she didn't spoil him lawlessly , On the contrary, he said that children should be raised cheaply or something.

Poor Da Zhu was beaten up by his mother from time to time.

"Hey, what are you laughing at? Aunt Niu is telling you something serious!" Aunt Niu's eyes widened.

Mu Jinxi stood up, walked behind Aunt Niu, pushed her forward, and said as she walked, "Aunt Niu, hurry up and go back! I'll go back after sitting down for a while, I'm fine, don't worry."

Aunt Niu was pushed by her for several steps, and finally had to say: "Okay, Aunt Niu is gone, stop pushing, Aunt Niu's old bones can't help you push like this."

"Aunt Niu is in good health."

"Okay, be careful yourself, don't stay too long, you know?" Aunt Niu reminded before leaving.

Mu Jinxi nodded vigorously and promised that she would go back in a while.

After Aunt Niu left, Mu Jinxi finally let out a sigh of relief, thought about what Aunt Niu said for a while, and thought about it carefully in her mind, but she still didn't remember when she went up the mountain.

Shaking her head, Mu Jinxi wiped her sweat with her sleeve and looked around, and finally walked in one direction.

Then she was pleasantly surprised!On a sunny hillside, she saw fruit trees!

Mu Jinxi ran over excitedly, and after a closer look, it turned out to be bayberry and peach trees!This is fruit, and it is also money. When the fruit is ripe and sold, it will be real gold and silver!Look how wonderful the tree is growing. It will surely bloom more flowers and bear more fruit!
It's a pity that it's not the time for flowering yet, otherwise she would know the specific situation.It's only the end of January now, and it won't bloom until March and April, and she still has to wait two months.

Mu Jinxi's patience suddenly deteriorated, and she wished that the fruit tree in front of her would bloom and bear fruit immediately, and then let her pick it and sell it for money!

It feels too uncomfortable to change from a local tyrant to a local turtle. Now she realizes how important money is. There was never a shortage of money before, but now it is too short!

Mu Jinxi stared at the peach and bayberry trees in front of her with glowing eyes, and suddenly heard a whimper, and before she could react, something slammed towards her, right on top of her head , making her dizzy all of a sudden.

"Oh shit!"

Mu Jinxi hurriedly supported the tree trunk, closed her eyes, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a small animal lying at her feet, with white hair and red blood, it seemed to be injured, with pitiful fox-like eyes Xi Xi looked at her.
