“Improve your studies?” Zhang Chunxiang smiled meaningfully and said ambiguously, “It’s a male classmate who’s improving with you, right?”
Sun Yunyun’s face turned red as she tried to explain. “No, it’s a female classmate. She’s the village chief’s daughter!” She really did have a classmate in Plum Furrow who was the daughter of the village chief. However, she was there to look for Zhao Jiangang.
She had to encourage Zhao Jiangang to make a move and trick Su Wen first. Anything else can be discussed after there was no turning back.
When that time came, the fact that Su Wen, a fickle woman, had made Zhou Hengyang a cuckold, would be inevitable.
So, Sun Yunyun had impersonated Su Wen’s dog-like handwriting and written a passionate and bold love letter to Zhao Jiangang. She had also mentioned many benefits of being Su Wen’s live-in son-in-law.
For example, the seven Su sisters would be in Zhao Jiangang’s hands. He could do whatever he wanted.
Another example was that the Su family’s five large tile-roofed houses would all belong to Zhao Jiangang in the future. He could also bring his parents and siblings over to enjoy life together. What live-in son-in-law; when Su Wen fell in love with him, she would be obedient and listen to him.
Zhao Jiangang had already been drooling over Su Wen’s looks, and after Sun Yunyun said that, he couldn’t resist. He only wished that he could immediately trick her into sleeping with him and get the house.
“Aunt, I still have something to do at home, I’ll be leaving first.” Sun Yunyun was afraid that Zhang Chunxiang would ask more questions, so she left after saying goodbye.
“Bah! Wastrel. Do you think I’m blind? And that I didn’t see that it was a man who sent her out of Plum Furrow?” From a distance, Zhang Chunxiang could clearly see that it was a man’s figure walking with Sun Yunyun.
She couldn’t recognize the woman from afar, but she did when she got closer. However, the other one was a man, there was no doubt about it.
When Zhang Chunxiang arrived at matchmaker Zhao’s house in Plum Furrow, she found out that she was a little late. Matchmaker Zhao had married off her daughter in town and was taking care of her during her confinement.
It would take at least a month before she returned. This trip had been a waste.

After the sun had set, Su Wen stood on a rock by the riverbank and looked at the green hills in the distance. Breathing in the refreshing air, her mood also became a lot more relaxed.
The view there was wonderful. Standing on the big rocks, one could see a white path paved on the green crops.
Su Wen was engrossed in taking in the view when she suddenly noticed a familiar figure at the end of the path.
It was Sun Yunyun.
Where had she returned from?
However, Su Wen didn’t take it to heart and focused on planning her next step.
She only had a few dozen yuan on hand right now, which was simply too little. Without money, you won’t feel a sense of security; not even having confidence when speaking!
This wouldn’t do!
Fourth sister, fifth sister, and sixth sister all had to attend school and this costed money. A simple calculation showed that they could not make ends meet. The work points that Third sister earned in the production team were not even enough to be deducted at the end of the year! Not to mention splitting the food and money.
There was a lack of labor at home! When the land was allocated the following year and the household contract responsibility system was implemented, she would have to build a good relationship with the neighbors in the village and ask them to help her farm.
Su Wen had already decided to leave a small portion to grow crops.
As for the rest, she could plant fruit trees and jujube trees.
The climate and soil there were very suitable for planting fruit trees. However, the variety had to be changed. The fruits of the local jujube trees were small and hard, bad-tasting and lacking sweetness.
The jujube trees would be planted the coming year, and the most urgent thing at the moment was to clarify their income.
She really didn’t like the feeling of having to be sneaky when buying meat. She was clearly making money through her own hard work, but had to act like a thief.
However, there were many people in the village who were jealous. Second aunt and Third aunt were always watching. If they were not careful, they would be reported.
Su Wen thought of an idea!
