However, she was still sure that once she had cured Xie Jun’s poison, she would be able to explore all over the world.

“Alright. When I’m free to leave, I’ll visit you from time to time.”

“Chuchu. I believe in good karma. I’m sure your husband will get better. His eyes will heal someday.”

“I think so too.” Zhao Chuchu smiled sweetly.

“Chuchu, can I hug you?” Yuan Hui suddenly asked. “I don’t know why, but I always feel safe whenever I’m around you. I just can’t put a word to that feeling.”

Zhao Chuchu couldn’t help but laugh. “Is it because I’m so pretty that you forget about other things when you see me?”

Yuan Hui blushed a little.

Although she had only known Zhao Chuchu for a few days, she realized from her savior that a lady didn’t need to rely on a man to be strong and that a woman could also be domineering.

Zhao Chuchu reached her arms out and hugged Yuan Hui. “Hui, there’s nothing better than being alive. Being able to survive such a serious injury means that you’re brave. No, it proves that you’re brave. You already know what it feels like to almost die, to be on the verge of death. So, there’s nothing in this world that can scare you anymore. As long as you’re fearless, you’ll be able to face everything that stands in your path.”

“Chuchu, thank you.”

Zhao Chuchu let go of Yuan Hui while the latter smiled cheerfully.

That night, Yuan Hui did not sleep early. Instead, she told Zhao Chuchu a lot about Guangqing Province and helped her savior understand her hometown even more.

“Looks like heading to a big city is the only way to make more money,” Zhao Chuchu thought.

She was so lost in thought that she eventually fell asleep without intending to.

Once the title deed for the mountain was done, Zhao Chuchu paid 21 silvers to purchase the small mountain known as Tripe Mountain.

That matter had become the talk among the villagers who didn’t like or were against Zhao Chuchu.

They were all laughing at her stupidity for spending so much money buying such a useless piece of land.

Those people were even waiting for her to become broke because of a piece of land that could not yield anything, and they spent a couple of silvers buying that land from her to help her out of debt.

Zhao Chuchu almost fell over laughing when she heard that.

She became the talk of the village. People would talk trash about her from day to night.

Naturally, they only dared to talk behind her back as they did not have the guts to say those ugly words in her face.

However, when they heard that Zhao Chuchu was hiring people to help plow the mountain, everyone quickly gathered at her house. The Xie clan’s house got crowded almost immediately.

Besides the Zhao clan that was too embarrassed to approach Zhao Chuchu, almost the entire village was there, trying to get a hand on the job she offered.

Although Tripe Mountain wasn’t big, it would still take a lot of time to plow it and get it to the stage where crops could start to grow. The villagers were sure that they could drag it out for two or three months if they did a slow job.

“Chuchu, we heard you’re hiring, right? Since it’s almost the spring harvest, the wage will be expensive. If you pay us 50 cents daily, we assure you we can finish it in three months.”

“You also have to take care of our meals since we’re helping you out instead of helping in our family’s field.”

“He’s right. We’ll at least need lunch with white rice, or else we won’t have the strength to finish such a big project.”

Zhao Chuchu was speechless hearing those people making such an absurd condition.

Naturally, she knew what they were thinking.

They were just trying to use the advantage where Xie Heng and her could not plow the mountain.

However, before she could even reply, Xie Heng walked out of the house. “50 cents a day with meals? Why don’t you rob us instead? I want the job done in a month. Leave if you can’t do it.”

“In a month? Are you trying to kill us?”

“Didn’t you guys try doing the same thing with Chuchu too?”

Xie Heng did not stop there.

“Also, we aren’t hiring those who joined in that day! Please return.”

With his eyes still blindfolded, the words that came out of his mouth were cold.
