Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Liu Mu’s wife’s voice was loud. Soon, she called Liu Mu and Song Ping, who were drinking in the main room, over. They were also stunned when they saw the moldy chestnuts on the ground.

“What’s going on?

Tomorrow, he would have to deliver the goods to He Ren. Wasn’t this cheating him?

Song Yao sighed. “Dad, fortunately, I checked the bag. It’s filled with broken chestnuts.”

“In that case, we can only slowly pick out the bad chestnuts.” After Song Ping finished speaking, he opened the bag and picked them up alone. Song Yao also helped.

“It’s all my fault!” Song Xiao slapped himself twice in anger. If he hadn’t done such a shabby job, such a thing wouldn’t have happened.

Fortunately, his sister realized that something was wrong. Otherwise, if a few catties of chestnuts that were sent to Boss He tomorrow were bad, wouldn’t it be ruining his sister’s reputation?

“Alright! This isn’t the chestnut you collected either.”

Song Yao stopped her brother. “What we have to do now is to pick out the chestnuts. Unfortunately, we discovered it too late…’

The chestnuts were not big. They would not be finished until noon tomorrow.

Seeing this, Liu Mu immediately pulled his wife and said, “We have nothing to do. Why don’t we pick them with you?”

As soon as he said that, Liu Mu’s wife immediately glared at him. “Don’t bring me along. I still have to work tomorrow.”

She played with the silver earrings that with the money she had gotten from Song Yao. “It’s really not that I want to criticize you! It’s fine if you’re uncultured, but you’re so-so when it comes to doing things! Fortunately, you discovered it early. If you had been sent to the factory to be processed later, something would have happened! The two of you would have been imprisoned!”

Hearing this, Song Xiao was even more anxious and cried. Song Yao

patted his shoulder and said helplessly, “Auntie, go back with Uncle Liu. Xiao and I will be here.”

Hearing this, Liu Mu’s wife sighed. “It’s really not that I don’t want to help. It’s just that I’m too busy.”

Song Yao’s lips twitched. “It’s fine, Auntie. Go to sleep first. We’ll call a few more people over later.”

Only then did Liu Mu ls wife smile. “Yes, yes, yes! Auntie will go back to sleep first. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After she finished speaking, she grabbed Liu Mu’s ear and said, “Why are you still standing here? Don’t you know that you’re going to the city to see my parents tomorrow?”

Liu Mu smiled obsequiously and did not dare to say anything. He immediately followed his wife back to the house.

Seeing that they had left, Song Yao said to Song Xiao, “Xiao, go home and find a few more people to help. Otherwise, we won’t be able to finish picking so many chestnuts tonight.”

Song Xiao sniffed and stopped crying. He immediately rode his bicycle and went straight to the Song Manor.

Half an hour later, Song Xiao came over with his neighbor, Aunt Su, and another unfamiliar aunt.

Song Yao went forward and said embarrassedly, “I’ve really troubled you guys. You still have to come and help in the middle of the night.”

Aunt Su and another lady smiled and said, “What’s so troublesome about that? Anyway, I have nothing to do at home. I might as well accompany you to pick chestnuts to pass the time.”

After Aunt Su finished speaking, she sat on the small stool and picked up the chestnuts as if they were very familiar with each other. “Song Yao, your business is quite big. There must be more than a thousand catties of chestnuts, right?”

Song Yao smiled. “Just over 1,200 catties. Sorry to trouble you!”

“I’m fine!”

Aunt Su smiled and waved her hand. “Your mother heard that something happened to the chestnuts and wanted to come over to take a look. Fortunately, I called her back! If she came over, who would look after the children at home? Your Aunt Han and I discussed for a long time. We can pick them for you!”

“Thank you, ladies!”

Song Yao was a little embarrassed. “After tonight, I’ll bring you to a restaurant!”

“Deal!”

The ladies smiled and started discussing family matters.

After midnight, Wei came along to pick the chestnuts. They chatted and picked them out. Soon, it was the next morning.

Of the 1,200 catties of chestnuts, only 1,000 catties were qualified!

Some of the remaining 200 catties were already moldy and smelly, and some had already grown mold. If they were really sent to He Ren’s food factory, it was possible that people could die from eating these chestnuts!

Song Yao sighed and took out two ten yuan notes from her pocket and handed them to Aunt Su and Aunt Han.

Aunt Su was dumbfounded. “What are you doing? Why did you give me so much money?”

Song Yao smiled. “It’s all thanks to you guys yesterday. Otherwise, Xiao and I wouldn’t have been able to finish picking until noon today..”
