        Jiang Yu ate everything clean, except for the soup.
  He didn't finish it to maintain his image as a gentleman, so as not to be laughed at by Su Guan for his poor eating manners.
  After all, they were in the countryside, and Jiang Yu couldn't be too conspicuous, for fear that passers-by would see him, so he only danced for a while and returned the sword to Su Guan for safekeeping.
  Su Guan was going to the vegetable garden to get some fresh vegetables to eat, and after eating the noodles, she went out with a basket on her shoulder.
  "Jiang Yu, I'm going to pick vegetables!" She greeted him, and he wanted to go with her.
  "I'll go with you."
  "We're not going out for fun, we're just picking some vegetables, why are you following us?" Su Guan raised a reasonable question.
  Now that they are familiar with each other, there is no need to be so polite as before, just say whatever you want to say, no need to hide anything.
  "It's too boring at home, I want to go out more!"
  He had just come back from a walk, and now he was going out again. But she couldn't always restrict his actions.
  Forget it, they can go together, it won't lose any meat. She couldn't tell what was wrong with Jiang Yu, anyway, it was wrong.
  So the two of them closed the bamboo fence courtyard door, and went out to the vegetable field one after another.
  I have to make shaqi ma when I come back later, so my daily schedule is very full.
  I came to the vegetable field collectively reclaimed by the villagers. I had been here with Su Yun before, so I knew which field my family belonged to.

  There are small cabbages in the field, all of which are green, pollution-free, and pure natural plants.
  At this time, most people are taking a nap at home, and few people come out.
  When the two came, they only saw two figures from a distance, which seemed to be the two sisters He Jiaolan.
  Originally, she wanted to go up and say hello, but before she spoke, she saw He Jiaolan push her sister He Jiaoxing to the bottom of the field.
  After pushing, she patted the dirt on her palms and walked away without looking back.
  Her behavior made Su Guan a little confused. Aren’t they sisters?
  Even if there is any dispute, her sister can’t speak and can’t defend herself. How far can the dispute go that they even started fighting? He Jiaolan didn’t realize that Su Guan witnessed her bullying her sister.
  When Su Guan came over, He Jiaoxing was ready to climb out of the ditch by herself.
  There is a canal underneath, and the water from the river is diverted into it to irrigate the vegetable fields.
  She was pushed down, soaked, with mud on her face, and her clothes stuck to her body. In the November weather, she was shivering with cold.
  Jiang Yufeng saw this, and out of courtesy, he immediately turned around to avoid her sight and consciously walked away for a distance.
         Su Guan reached out and pulled her. She couldn't speak, but just bowed slightly to Su Guan to express her gratitude.Su Guan didn't ask He Jiaolan why she treated her like this. She couldn't speak, so it was useless to ask.
  "Go home and change clothes quickly, don't catch a cold!"
  Hearing this, He Jiaoxing looked at the direction where her sister left, with fear in her eyes and a shrunken expression.
  She shook her head and didn't dare to go home yet.
  "Although I don't know why you two sisters have conflicts, don't be afraid of her. Go back and express it to your parents, they will help you to get justice."
  Su Guan looked at her reaction and subconsciously thought that she was afraid of her sister.
  He Jiaoxing's eyes dimmed again after hearing this. Su Guan didn't know that her parents were also partial, and their hearts were biased towards her sister.
  Even if she said it, they would not give her justice, but would only scold her.
  She was a mute, and her congenital defects caused her to always be inferior to her sister in all aspects, so it was natural for her to suppress her.
  As soon as Su Guan saw her eyes, she knew that this was not simple, and it was definitely not as simple as she thought.
  But she didn't like to meddle in these trivial matters that had nothing to do with her.
  "Wait for me to pick some cabbage, it will be quick, you go to my house and sit for a while before going back!" That was all she could do. She quickly picked a handful of cabbage enough for the family and put it in the basket, and then she took He Jiaoxing back.
  Jiang Yu walked in front all the time, and never looked back. Due to the etiquette between men and women, if the woman got wet, the man could not look directly at her.
  After returning, Su Guan asked her to wash her face and put on her own clothes, or to be more precise, the clothes that Gu Yue had worn.
  Everyone was of similar age and stature, so it was fine as long as they could wear them.
  Su Guan didn't want to wear Gu Yue's old clothes, but she didn't have money in the early stage, and the new clothes she had ordered weren't ready yet.
  He Jiaoxing changed into clean clothes and kept talking to Su Guan in a babbling voice, probably to say thank you.
  "No need to thank me, it's nothing. If you don't want to go back now, just sit at my house for a while before going back."
        Su Guan washed her hands, said hello and didn't care about her anymore. She kneaded dough in the kitchen by herself, and He Jiaoxing didn't stay for long. Not long after, she left with her dirty clothes. Jiang Yu kept avoiding her and waited until she left before coming out.
  He helped Su Guan to light the fire and do odd jobs without any complaints.
  After that, Su Yun and his two brothers came back. Today's business was not as good as yesterday. There were still more than a dozen left unsold. Because there were few people in the village today, they only made more than six taels of silver. Su Yun looked at these unsold shaqi ma and felt a little frustrated.
  He tried so hard to shout, but he still couldn't sell them all.

  "Fourth brother, if business is so good every day, then what's the point of saying that business is so easy to do? Then everyone in the world can do it together. It's just that a little bit of it has not been sold, so what's the big deal?"
  Su Guan comforted him in time, telling him not to be infected by this emotion.
  "Fourth brother, you are too competitive. In fact, your heart is fragile and you can't stand the blow. How can this be possible?"
  Su Yun nodded, temporarily abandoned those gloomy thoughts, and helped Su Guan prepare the goods to be sold tomorrow.
  He is still young and has little experience. If things are not satisfactory, it will be easy to hit him.
  Because we are going to a big village tomorrow, we need to prepare more shaqima.
  Su Guan prepared 100 portions. Tomorrow, the two brothers will each take a portion.
  This is still very hard. He has to walk a lot and is very tired, but he has no complaints.
  Tomorrow may be more tiring, but he will gain more.
  This road is Su Yun's own choice. The idea has been given to him, so he has to make corresponding efforts.
  As for Su Yi and Su Chen who helped with the labor, Su Guan would prepare wages for them. They couldn't let them work for nothing with the fourth brother. It was the fourth brother who wanted to save money for business, not them. They had to distinguish between public and private.
  Su Chen had just returned after dark. Su Guan heated up the food for him and then sat at the door waiting for him, just like the day he rode to the state capital to get medicine. She was worried about why he hadn't come back yet, and was afraid that he would be in danger or something. But she waited for him but not for her parents.
  "What's the matter? Didn't your parents come back with you?"
