Chapter 73: Could Ginger Be the True Female Lead?

's fine.Ginger hummed softly and stuffed two quail eggs into Song's hand. As for Song Ji-cheol and Song Ji-li... ωＷω.oＮЬ.οrSorry, no. She's very vengeful, though. Anyway, she wouldn't starve right no..."Then I'll remember that, you're not allowed to shirk your responsibilities from now on!"

Jiang Wan, of course, knew what Song Jiubian meant. How could the esteemed War King possibly be satisfied with just the assets of a prince's estate

However, they are being constantly suppressed by the Emperor and the Sixth Prince's men right now, so it's inconvenient for them to appear.

"Okay."

Song Jiubian's lips curled up slightly. He always kept his word and would never forget the promise he had made to her.

As the two were talking, Ginger took advantage of the cover provided by her basket to retrieve some herbs from the space.

It's not that she was misleading Pan Hongyan, the medicinal materials needed for the heart-protecting pills are numerous, and the most precious ones are lingzhi and ginseng.

If she hadn't happened to acquire a field of medicinal herbs last time, she probably wouldn't have enough herbs to make the medicine.

Seeing that Ginger was once again favored by the powerful, not only did Lao Song's family spit blood, even Hua Xiao envied her, her eyes turning red.

Could it be that she wasn't the main character all along, and Jiang Wan is actually the protagonist

At dawn, her head was full of questions. This shouldn't be happening. If heaven had sent her to ancient times, she should be the heroine!

Maybe the hardship she is experiencing now is a trial for her, yes, it must be so, Hua Xiao comforted herself.

Πb.γ

"Girl, are you picking vegetables"

Song Erniao came closer. Her fair fingertips, due to the hardships of this period, had long since become rough and dark.

"Hmm."

Hua Xiao spoke softly, "Grandma, would you like some wild vegetables too This is shepherd's purse, it's edible."

"Hey, thanks, you're so kind."

Song Erniang's previous identity naturally didn't recognize any wild vegetables, but recently she had also learned a thing or two.

"You're welcome, it's what we should do to help each other."

Huāxiǎo quietly glanced at Lín Tíngyù in the distance, but unfortunately, the other party was slowly biting their steamed bun and didn't give her a single look.

Song Erniang sighed, "It's a pity not everyone thinks that way." She said, glancing lightly at Jiang Wan's side.

"If it weren't for their family dragging us down, we wouldn't have been exiled in the first place. As a result, my husband became like that, and they wouldn't even lend a hand"

Song Erniang's gaze fell on Song Laoer, rolling on the ground in pain, and the old mistress who was babbling crazily and laughing foolishly.

Hua Xiao rose with feelings of pity, "It seems that Song Nü and the others are so heartless. Aren't you all family It is filial piety towards elders that they should be doing."

"That being said, you also know the situation is different now."

Song Erniang refused to mention her own excessive actions, only complaining, “She is now not only indebted to the magistrate but also saved Master Lin and that noblewoman.”

Now, who would dare to offend her The officials can beat people up without even thinking twice.

She wiped away a tear, "You don't know, Ginger is not only a she-wolf, but also incredibly fierce. She even killed a wolf before."

"Oh my!"

Huaxiao took a sharp breath, feeling that familiar sense of "why bother" again.

Could it be that ginger is her natural enemy

Huā Xiǎo stared at Jiāng Wàn, lost in thought. Not far away, Sòng Jiǔyuān softly reminded her.

Her eyes looking at you are off, you should be careful.

He was very perceptive of other people's gazes. Jiang Wan wasn't oblivious to it, but she simply didn't have the time to deal with it.

"Well, I know my limits."

A woman like the female lead, with that innocent white lotus facade, would never be her friend. It's perfectly reasonable to suspect she'd scheme against her.

They continued on their journey. Jiang Wan, with Song Jiuli by her side, would occasionally stop to pick herbs. Pan Hongyan was tasked by the Taifu to help out.

"Song lady."

He handed ginger a large handful of herbs, making Ginger laugh and cry at the same time.

"Sir Pan, I only need the spikelets of summer grass for medicine."

While Pan Hongyan took the whole thing down, plucking a large handful. She wouldn't need so many herself, she could only wait until later to quietly plant them in the space.

“Oh, I don't know herbs, but whatever adults use, you tell me to pick.”

Pan Hongyan sheepishly scratched his hair. He looked much more approachable than he did before when he had a cold face.

"Okay, go help me pick some fresh young leaves of Ai (Chinese mugwort) from the front. "

Ginger summoned someone over with a wave of her hand. Seeing Pan Hongyan so obedient, Song Jiuli was filled with envy.

"Sister-in-law, you are amazing!"

"Don't be a chatterbox, we need to hurry up or we'll fall behind and embarrass the magistrate."

Although Ginger had received Renbang's favor, she also tried her best to avoid making things difficult for him.

Near their overnight stay was a mountain spring. Ginger coordinated with Song Jiuli and Pan Hongyan to process the newly picked herbs before preparing dinner.

What are we having for dinner tonight

Gazing at the spring water, Jiang Wan's eyes lit up. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she found a corner and squatted down, her consciousness entering the space.

Good fellow, she had previously put a thumb-sized fish into the space and it grew to be three or four pounds.

Ginger's eyes lit up. Taking advantage of the cover of the spring water, she directly pulled something out from space and then ran back clumsily.

Let's have fish for dinner tonight.

"Wow, sis-in-law, you actually caught a fish!"

Song Jiuli widened her eyes, her admiration almost overflowing!

Song Jiubian and Song Jichi also rushed over, their eyes seemed to say, is there anything you can't do

"You worked hard, Wanwan."

Song Daniu's eyes were smiling, the fish was naturally handed over to Song Jiubian for handling. Chen Ce saw this and hurriedly ran to the spring pond to catch fish.

From afar, Lin Tingyu saw them laughing and chatting merrily. A touch of envy flashed in her eyes as she watched this scene, which happened to catch Hua Xiao's eye.

She sadly pursed her lips, got up and quietly left. Father was busy cooking for her and didn't notice at first.

To Ginger's surprise, Chen Ce seemed to have good luck. After squatting for a long time, he actually caught a fish the size of his palm.

Mrs. Chen smiled, her eyes curving into a crescent. "Husband, you've worked hard," she said.

She knew her husband was doing this to supplement their family's diet, and she felt a warmth in her heart.

The fish was tender, the soup was delicious. While eating, Ginger thought to herself that when everyone went to sleep at night, she would have to carve out a small stream in the space.

It's used for raising fish and seafood. The fish raised in the space spring water are different, she feels her body is getting lighter and lighter.

At this time, Song Jiubian also had this feeling. He felt a tingling sensation at the wound, as if it were growing flesh. If ginger was not prohibiting him, he would even want to stand up and try if he could walk himself.

"This is so good!"

Song Jiuli let out an exaggerated, light sigh. She didn't dare to speak too loudly for fear of angering the magistrate, but she was truly drooling over the old Song family's food.

"Mother, I want to eat fish."

Song Yang stared straight at the fish in Ginger WAN's pot with wide eyes. Song Sanniang hurriedly hugged him.

"Silly child, you still want to eat fish The person wishes you were dead."

"Speaking like that to a child," Ginger snorted, her gaze cold as she swept past. Song Sanniang averted her eyes and refused to meet her stare.

Is this being guilty

Tap tap tap...

A strange sound came, and Ginger's heart skipped a beat. She immediately told Song Jiuli and Song Jichí:

"Quick, get ready, something wild is coming."

She twitched her ear, her voice wasn't soft, everyone heard it. Some believed, some didn't, but the Song family did.

Soon those who disbelieved would regret it. Soon a dark shadow appeared before the crowd, the person's face was somewhat familiar.

Sunrise.

And a herd of wild boars followed her.l me!"She was blown several meters away and hit her head against a large rock. The pain made her see stars."Mother!"Song Chen pulled Song Lao Er and Song's wife, and then helped Song Er Nüzi up.Howeve...
