The third daughter-in-law of the Xiang family saw that her sisters-in-law and mother were all looking at her. Her eyes curved into crescents and her face was filled with joy. Her voice was filled with joy. “Mother, Ah Yu, it’s Young Master Du who is avenging us.”

“Young Master Du made Landlord Wang drink a pack of laxatives. At this moment, Landlord Wang is still having diarrhea in the toilet in the backyard.”

“I saw him finish a bowl with my own eyes. This time, Landlord Wang will definitely suffer.”

“He deserved it.” The eldest daughter-in-law of the Xiang family spat. Clearly, she did not have a good impression of Landlord Wang.

Chu Xingjun did not expect Du Heng to take such a strong revenge. However, when she thought of the other party’s identity, she could not stop him. It was for the sake of revenge for her family. After pondering for a moment, she said, “I noticed that Young Master Du likes sweet food. Coincidentally, the weather today is a little hot. I will make some brown sugar ice jelly for Young Master Du later.”

“Mother, we don’t have any brown sugar at home. I’ll go buy it.”

“Deal.”

This matter was settled.

Perhaps Du Heng’s punishment of Wang Shichu was decisive and vented his anger, so the family’s attitude toward him became better.

The whole day passed.

Night fell.

The Xiang family finally regained its peace.

Xiang Laoda collected a lot of wood ears.

The children also helped a lot. They weighed more than a hundred pounds.

They had dinner in the central room. The food was sumptuous. After dinner, they began to summarize.

Xiang Laoda was the first to say, “I collected more than 100 catties of wood ears from the mountain today. They are all mature wood ears. Some of them can still grow. I kept them all. It seems that I can collect another 500 to 600 catties from the mountain.”

When the Xiang family heard this, they were overjoyed.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Xiang family said, “Will the wood ears on the mountain go bad if we don’t harvest it? We don’t have enough stoves at home, so we can’t bake too many wood ears at once.”

“There are still two to three hundred catties of mature wood ears left. If we don’t pick it back, I’m afraid it will rot on the mountain.” Xiang Laoda was a little worried.

Ye Muyu comforted him. “Don’t worry. The weather has been good these days. I’ll put it in the yard to dry after I bring it back.”

“We still have to get rid of the moisture first.”

“Uncle, I’m afraid you’ll be busy these few days. We can’t keep using the stove to bake at home. Why don’t we build a brick bed stove?”

Ye Muyu suggested.

Xiang Zhifu did not doubt her words. “A bed stove? Like the one used in the North?”

“That’s right. With the firewood, the entire bed will be warm. It’s also suitable to be used to bake wood ears. Since it’s to bake fungus, there’s naturally no need to make it so thick.”

“I think Ah Yu’s suggestion is good. She knows how to read and understands better than us.” Chu Xingjun decisively voiced her support.

When the others heard this, they also felt that it was only right. After all, they still had to raise the fungus in the future. They had to bake it every year. It would not be a waste to build a brick bed. On the contrary, it would be much more convenient.

“Alright, let’s do it.” Xiang Zhifu made up his mind.

“I went to the mountain to find a lot of firewood today. It should last for three to four days.”

“However, there will definitely be more villagers going to collect firewood tomorrow. I’m afraid there won’t be enough.”

“It doesn’t matter if it’s not enough. I’ll buy it first.”

Firewood was not expensive. One could buy a large bundle of firewood for ten copper coins. Although Black Water Village was relatively remote, there were other villages nearby, just a little further away.

After that, it was time to arrange who was responsible for the fire and who was in charge of the specific work.

The next morning…

The Xiang family members began to get busy.

Ye Muyu did not need to teach them how to bake anymore. She took advantage of this time to go to the mountain to look for bacteria and dig up some soil.
