Chapter 23: The Two Families Naturally Speak Different Words
The two little guys at home were malnourished. If they could drink this spring water, their bodies should be able to recover, right?
She wanted to see if he could bring some spring water out later.
Su Li stood up and walked towards the shop.
After her tireless efforts, the shop had now met the conditions to be promoted to Level 2.
"Twelve white mark leaves?"
Su Li looked at the words that flashed on the drawer and read them.
White mark leaves have the effect of moistening the lungs and stopping coughs, and can also be used to treat chronic pharyngitis cough and chronic bronchitis.
White mark leaves were not very difficult to find. Its growing environment was similar to the restorative incense. If she could find the restorative incense, she could find white mark leaves.
However, she still had business to do. She could only postpone finding herbs.
The next day.
As it was a market day, there were more people on the ox cart. Su Li had already sat steadily on the ox cart.
When Old Zhao saw that the ox cart was soon full, a smile appeared on his lips. The business of the ox cart was not always so good. Sometimes, it was already not bad to be able to pull in one or two people.

"Sit tight. We'll set off immediately." Old Zhao said.
"Wait, wait!" came a voice from behind.
Wang Chunhua pulled He Jinbao and ran towards the ox cart.
"Fortunately, we made it in time." Wang Chunhua was panting from running.
Old Zhao looked at Wang Chunhua and her grandson and said, "The ox cart is full. It can't fit anymore. You guys have to think of another way!"
When Wang Chunhua heard this, her voice became sharp. "We can't sit anymore? How can we not fit? We can fit if we squeeze."
Old Zhao glanced at the ox cart and pointed up. "Look, is there still a gap for you to squeeze in? Even if you can squeeze in, my ox can't take it. We can only pull so much in one trip."
He was still counting on this ox to live. If he tired the ox to death, who would he look for in the future?
"She's so fat. She is equal to two others. With her on top, your ox won't be able to stand it even more. Chase her down and let us go up."
Wang Chunhua pointed at Su Li.
"Don't you understand the principle of first come, first served? Since there's no space, you can walk!"
Su Li rolled her eyes at Wang Chunhua and sat steadily on the ox cart.
Wang Chunhua placed her hands on her hips and said, "I'm your mother-in-law. Are you going to let me walk while you sit on the ox cart? If you have any filial piety, give up your seat to me."
Wang Chunhua tried to use filial piety to suppress Su Li, but Su Li did not fall for it at all. Only Wang Chunhua could think of such a useless method.
Su Li said indifferently, "Our filial piety costs seven taels a month. If you want to take the ox cart, you can buy a cow yourself. That way, you won't have no seats because you're late."
She then turned to Old Zhao and said, "We've already paid the fare. You can leave now. Don't waste everyone's time."
"That's right. We've already paid for the ride. I still have to go to the market to sell things. Hurry up and leave. Don't waste our time."
"Let's go. Why are you talking nonsense with her? If you want to take the ox cart, why didn't you come earlier? Since you came late, you can only accept your fate."
Although the people on the ox cart did not like Su Li, they disliked Wang Chunhua even more. If they could step on Wang Chunhua, they would definitely not hesitate to step on her.
When He Jinbao heard that there was no way to sit on the ox cart, he burst into tears.
"Darling, don't cry!" Wang Chunhua saw that her precious grandson was crying and her heart hurt. She quickly comforted him.
He Jinbao cried as she said, "Sob sob sob... Grandma, if we can't get on the ox cart, we can't buy new clothes and eat meat?"
"He Dahu and He Erhu already have new clothes. I want some too. I want to beat them."
He Dahu and He Erhu flaunted their new clothes everywhere. They wished they could tell the entire world about this. Their actions successfully made He Jinbao furious.
He Jinbao felt that He Dahu and his brother were only worthy of wearing tattered clothes that looked like beggars. New clothes shouldn't appear on them. Since He Dahu and his brother had new clothes, he should have them too.
Therefore, he made a fuss at home about buying new clothes. Wang Chunhua could not do anything to him. She could not bear to see her precious grandson fall behind others. In addition, she indeed had the money in her hands, so she brought He Jinbao to the market to buy clothes.
"Darling, don't worry. Grandma will definitely bring you to buy clothes today."
Wang Chunhua rushed in front of the ox cart and reached out to block it.
"You're not allowed to leave. If I can't get on the ox cart today, don't even think about leaving."
Old Zhao said with dissatisfaction, "What are you doing?! My ox cart really can't fit anymore."
"Madam Wang, you can't blame anyone else that you came late. Hurry up and make way for us. If we're late, there won't be any good locations on the street."
"That's right. Hurry up and move aside. If you delay our matters, don't blame us for being impolite. When that happens, everyone will be unhappy."
Wang Chunhua pointed at Su Li and said, "I don't have high expectations. Chase that woman down. Her physique is so big, and her seat is enough for the both of us."
"Otherwise, no one can leave today. I'm definitely going to sit on this ox cart."
When Su Li heard Wang Chunhua's shameless words, she almost laughed out loud. Did she think that she was a toy that could be controlled by anyone?
The people on the ox cart looked at each other. They had a deep understanding of Wang Chunhua's shameless and shrewish behavior. Although they were not afraid of her, it was not good for Wang Chunhua to keep blocking the way. They were still in a hurry to sell things. This was a big matter that could not be delayed.
Hence, everyone began to persuade Su Li.
"Mother of Dahu, why don't you go down? You're young and you can walk around to train your body. Your mother-in-law is old and the child is still young. Give up your seat to them."
"Yes, you're still young. It doesn't matter if you walk a little. Just give your seat to your mother-in-law."
"As a daughter-in-law, you have to be filial. Go down and get your mother-in-law to come up."
Su Li glanced at everyone and said, "Since you're so kind, why don't you give up your seats to her?"
When everyone heard this, they could not take it anymore.
"Why should I? She's your mother-in-law and has nothing to do with us. If I want you to give in, you have to give in."
Su Li tidied her clothes. "But we've already split up. Now, we're two families. The two families naturally speak differently."
Wang Chunhua said shamelessly, "If you don't let me take the car today, don't even think about leaving."
Everyone was furious. They were really unlucky to have met this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Hence, they looked at Old Zhao.
"Old Zhao's ox cart is yours. You can let whoever you want sit on it. You can decide this matter."
As long as Old Zhao spoke, it would be difficult for Su Li not to get out of the car.
Old Zhao looked troubled. He looked at Su Li and then at Wang Chunhua.
