Li Yu and others were busy on the mountain until Shen Shizhong, and then one person came down the mountain carrying a basket of wolfberries. It was already Youshizhong when they got home. Li Yu and Li Mei's aunt and nephew were busy steaming wolfberry.

Zhaodi and Laidi were washing vegetables and cooking. A quarter of an hour later, Li Qing came back with a basket of books. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he shouted, "Sister, I'm back."

"You're back! How do you feel in the school? Do you understand?" Li Yu asked as he came out of the kitchen holding a bamboo plaque.

Li Qing followed Li Yu and walked in, "I can understand. I remember everything Mr. said. Sister, Mr. understands everything. He is very impressive."

Li Yu saw Li Qing speaking with admiration and said with a smile: "Oh! Then help me ask my sister tomorrow what dynasty preceded the Yong Dynasty?"

Li Qing was a little scared when he remembered his husband's serious look, but he still responded, "Okay, I'll ask you when I get a chance. Sister, I'm going to do my homework."

Li Yu wiped his sweat and said, "I understand. Go take the small table out and put it in the yard to write. It's cool outside."

"Hey!" Li Qing responded with a crisp voice and went to the kitchen happily, thinking to herself: My sister has become happier and happier after returning home. If I had known, she would have come back earlier.

Li Yu and Li Mei steamed all the wolfberries and dried them. Li Mei looked at Li Yu and said, "Yu'er, I think those ripe wolfberries will be picked in three or four days. Will there be any more in the future? There is still fish." Son, how do you know how to make this thing?"

Li Yu thought for a moment, "I don't know how I know it. It seems that I knew how to make those wolfberries as soon as I saw them. My father probably picked them from the mountains before and my mother told me!"

After Li Yu finished speaking, he didn't know whether Li Mei would believe what he said, and he felt a little uneasy. However, Li Mei smiled after hearing this, "Yeah! Maybe you remembered it after your mother mentioned it."

Li Mei looked at Li Yu and seemed to see that weak and beautiful woman, recalling and saying: "Your mother should be a young lady from a wealthy family. She was rescued by your father when she was on the way to escape, and she married you after seeing that your father was loyal and honest. Dad, she has never mentioned anything about her past, but she can write and draw, and we have never seen the patterns she painted. The embroidery made by her hands is vivid, and she loves to be clean. She has to do it every day, no matter winter or summer. As for bathing, your mother asked your father to build the toilet and bathroom in your backyard. In short, your mother is different from us country women at first glance."

Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "That must be what Mom told me to remember! Aunt, I remember Mom also said that after picking one batch, you can pick the second batch six or seven days later. One season of wolfberry can I picked it several times!”

After hearing this, Li Mei said happily: "We can pick that piece of mountain ridge. If we are busy this season, we can pick a lot of wolfberries! If the price is good, it will cost a lot of money."

"I can pick a lot this season, at least until the busy season. Auntie, I want to open up the wasteland behind the house and dig some wolfberries to plant in the wasteland."

"Can I make a living?"

"Try it! Look, those peach and pear trees were dug up from other places and planted!"

"Then it's up to you. If we can grow it, we can open up all the wasteland behind it to grow wolfberry."

Li Yu saw that Li Mei was not like other elders who pointed fingers at the younger generation and was stubborn, so he felt that it was pleasant to get along with her, and he slowly began to treat her as his relative in another world.

The next day, after Li Yu delivered the game to Huang Yuan's family, he went to the grocery store and bought a few bundles of oilcloth. He went home and sewed some oilcloth bags, preparing to use them to store the dried wolfberry berries so that the moisture would not affect their appearance.

Li Yu counted the three sales of the prey and the money returned from the Zhang family, and already saved hundreds of taels of silver. Li Yu planned to go to the village chief after picking the wolfberries, buy the wasteland behind the house, and open it up. Plant grain in the area behind the house and wolfberry in the area near the forest.

In the following days, Li Yu still went hunting in the mountains early in the morning. He just stored most of the prey in the space, leaving a small portion to eat for himself, and then sent game to Huang Yuan's family every few days.

My aunt and nephew were busy working on the mountain until early July. A few days before the Hungry Ghost Festival, we finally picked all the wolfberries and brought them home. The yard was full of wolfberries in the sun.

It was almost the Ghost Festival when Zhao Di saw her mother and sister staying at her cousin's house. Her mother didn't mention anything about going home, and her father didn't come to pick her up. Although living at her cousin's house was much better than when she was at home, this was not the case after all. It’s not my home!

Zhao Di found Li Mei and asked, "Mom, are we really not going back in the future?"

Li Mei was also a little worried about Liu Changmin. Although he was a bit honest, foolish and filial, the couple had been treating her well for more than ten years. If his mother hadn't interfered in the middle...

Li Mei sighed and looked at Zhao Di: "Do you think your father has come to pick us up? If we just go back to Liu's house by ourselves, have you thought about the future?"

Zhaodi thought: Yes! If my mother returns home like this, I don’t know how grandma will torment her! But there is no way to go on like this!

Zhao Di looked at Li Mei with a sad look on her face and said, "Mom, what should we do?"

Li Mei stared at her, "What should I do? If your father hasn't come to pick us up before the Ghost Festival, I will go back and make peace with him. I won't suffer the cowardice at home."

In the Liu family, Liu Changmin sat alone in the room, looking at the empty house, thinking about how Li Mei used to be busy with the children at home, and also thought that Li Mei had left with the children for almost a month. It was almost the Ghost Festival, and she didn't even bring back a message. It seemed that Amei was determined not to live with her.

Liu Changmin then thought about the sad and disappointed look in Li Mei's eyes when he left, curling up on the bed holding his head in pain.

Liu Changmin couldn't understand why I couldn't get along well with Amei. When Amei was at home, she would get up and do things before dawn every day. She was still so busy that she was still not satisfied. The two younger brothers and sisters started working together to cheat on each other, but... I have never seen my mother tormenting them every day!

Liu Changmin really wanted to ask my mother why she was tormenting Amei like this? As a result, Amei has a home and cannot return.

At this time, Liu Changmin's wife Yang came out of the kitchen, walked to Liu Changmin's house and said to him with a livid face: "Boss, why are you so useless! Liu Zhi is your nephew, and her natal nephew My son just got a lot of money. I asked her to borrow some money to study for Zhi'er. It was also for your sake. When Zhi'er becomes successful in the future, he will also support you in your old age. However, she threw away her hands and ran away. Isn't she just a woman? Well! You look like you're dying, and I told you not to pick her back up. If you can, stay at your parents' house for the rest of your life and don't come back."

The more Liu Changmin listened, the angrier he became. He rolled over and got up from the bed, shouting at her: "Mother, that's the money Li Shan left for Ah Qing. Why should we borrow it? Besides, will you pay it back if you borrow it? Mother, What are you trying to do? You must have trouble with Amei, can't you think of me and my two children?"

Yang was stunned for a moment by Liu Changmin's shouting. After she came to her senses, she went over and beat Liu Changmin and cried, "You rebellious son, I raised you as both a father and a mother. I didn't expect to raise you to be such a rebellious person." Unfilial beast, you dare to yell at me because of an outsider and two losers."

An honest person can't stop himself when he is stubborn. Liu Changmin frowned and looked at Yang, "The money-losing person is also my daughter and your granddaughter. Since mother thinks I am disobedient and unfilial, then you can beat me to death so that Amei can start again." I'll find a good family so I can come back and be rubbed by you."
