Before Qiao Zhixia harvested her first batch of medicinal herbs, she completed the relevant procedures for planting and selling medicinal herbs.

Soon, the astragalus and gastrodia elata that she planted were bought out by major pharmaceutical companies due to their excellent quality.

This is also because she planted samples in advance and conducted ingredient testing, allowing the marketing and sales departments to make advance arrangements and find target customers.

Her asking price is one-third higher than similar herbs on the market, but the medicinal properties of each of her herbs are more than three times that of ordinary herbs.

As the usage decreases, the cost also decreases.

So although her medicinal materials seem to be expensive, they are actually more cost-effective.

So the sales prospects are very good.

At the beginning of spring, she arranged for people to plant 50 acres of rice, and also planted nearly 300 acres of soybeans and 200 acres of sweet potatoes in the orchard on the mountain.

Part of this is grain ordered to be sold to the state, but also to accommodate the incoming agricultural experts and television stations.

It was a coincidence that the day when the TV station came was the day when Chen Jidong returned with the rescued Xia Hongmei.

But in just over two months, Xia Hongmei became a crazy woman with disheveled hair. She would take off her pants with a silly smile when she saw people, because she had been trained to have the instinct to take off her pants without being beaten.

The cameraman was nearly frightened to the point of falling into the paddy field when a woman rushed towards him and took off her pants. Fortunately, he closed the cover of his camera quickly, otherwise he would have recorded some embarrassing scenes.

Chen Jidong chased after his crazy mother, his face looking tired and depressed.

Why was Xia Hongmei the only one who came back?

Because Chen Lingling stayed in that cannibalistic village forever.

Qiao Zhixia heard from Secretary Chen's eldest daughter-in-law that Chen Lingling was tortured to death less than a month after being sold there.

When the body was dug out, several bones were broken and it was rotten beyond recognition.

Not only has Xia Hongmei gone crazy, she also has a dirty disease that causes her flesh to rot, so her body stinks. Now the Chen family has no choice but to lock her up and keep her.

But Xia Hongmei always howled in the house at night, disturbing the whole family and the neighbors next door.

Some people started to scold Chen Jidong for not thinking about the good things. Why did he bring such a mother back? Isn't this harming people?

Chen Jidong initially tried to explain that he couldn't bear to see his mother being bullied to death outside.

But after a long time, he was tortured by Xia Hongmei to the point of becoming nervous and weak, and gradually lost his good temper.

Just send her one meal a day to prevent her from starving to death. Just raise her like a pig or a dog.

But even so, Wang Ruqiu was still not satisfied.

Because now she has to take care of the children alone, cook and clean, and endure the crazy mother-in-law's crazy abuse and stench.

Now her hands have become rough from doing housework, and her figure has been deformed after giving birth. She can no longer wear the beautiful blouses she used to wear.

Her hair was dry and frizzy, and the skin on her face was sallow, loose, and blotchy.

Today she is a typical sloppy rural woman.

She became the type of woman she once despised the most.

This is not the life she wants, she shouldn't be like this...

The crying of the child, the scolding of the crazy mother-in-law, the urging voice of Chen Jidong... the endless housework and endless feeding were driving her crazy.

I thought Chen Jidong would have a chance to turn things around by doing business with his buddies, but it turned out to be a scam and the person who raised the funds actually ran away with the purchase money.

Although the police were notified, the possibility of recovering the money is very small.

Now Chen Jidong not only has not made any money, but also owes several thousand yuan in debt.

He now works in the town. Every day he goes home to turn over the land in front of and behind his house and plant vegetables. Although his life is a bit hard, he can make ends meet with the subsidy from Chen Wen'ge.

Every time he felt like he couldn't hold on any longer, he would think of Wang Ruqiu and his son and he would be able to endure it.

But Wang Ruoqiu couldn't bear such a day. Chen Jidong had no hope of making a comeback, and she could no longer see his former handsomeness and charm.

He has become an ordinary farmer.

That night, while Chen Jidong was asleep, she took out a drawer and wrote a letter to the provincial capital...

Chen Jidong was so busy making a living that he didn't notice Wang Ruqiu's perfunctory and cold attitude towards him.

When I returned home in the evening a few days later, the house was still deserted and my son's diapers and clothes were still in the laundry basin, untouched.

And Wang Ruoqiu was actually putting on lipstick in front of the mirror.

She hasn't dressed up for a long time.

"What day is today? Why don't you cook?"

Wang Ruoqiu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Chen Jidong, I want to divorce you. Go cook for yourself if you want to eat!"

Chen Jidong thought he had misheard. He was stunned and asked, "What did you say? You want to divorce me?"

Wang Ruoqiu looked at him with contempt, "Yes! I want to divorce you. I want to take my son back to the city. You have to endure the hard life in the countryside alone!"

Chen Jidong didn't expect that Wang Ruqiu, who was always gentle and obedient, would have such a face. He was shocked and at a loss.

"Why? You clearly said at the beginning that you were willing to spend the rest of your life with me no matter if I had money or not! Are you lying?"

"You said you would give me a rich life, that I would have no worries about food and clothing, and that I would just enjoy life happily. But look at the kind of life you're making me live now? Do you still have the nerve to blame me for lying to you?"

Chen Jidong was speechless for a moment. He did make the promise, but how did he become like this step by step?

Isn't it because of her?

Recalling the love-hate entanglement of the past, it kept lingering in his heart. His love for her was real, and his resentment was not false.

After the love and resentment offset each other, love was still greater in the end, after all, this girl had given so much for him.

"You even gave up the college entrance examination for me. Do you really want to divorce me now? My current difficulties are temporary. I will start a business again. I promise to compensate you when the time comes."

But after hearing his pleading words of surrender, Wang Ruoqiu sneered mercilessly:

"You are such an idiot. You believed everything I said. I didn't take the college entrance examination not because of you, but because I didn't want to take it in the first place. Do you think that anyone can pass the college entrance examination? I just lied to make you feel that you owed me something, but you believed it. Don't you know that I hired the pickpocket?"

After hearing this, Chen Jidong felt as if a bucket of ice had been poured over his head: "What did you say?"

A few years ago, on the day Wang Ruoqiu took the college entrance examination, Chen Jidong had a fight with two pickpockets on the way to the examination room to send her. He was stabbed in the stomach. In order to send him to the hospital, Wang Ruoqiu voluntarily gave up the college entrance examination and took care of him in the hospital for three days without taking off her clothes.

He would never forget how thoughtful and gentle she was at that time.

But she said it was all fake?

"I told you that you are a fool. Don't make empty promises to me. Do you think I will believe you? Only that idiot Qiao Zhixia would believe your lies. But what did she get? After being used by you, you ruthlessly abandoned her on the wedding day?"

Wang Ruoqiu curled her lips, her face full of sneer. Looking at this cowardly man who looked so devastated, she felt inexplicably happy.

Chen Jidong was shaky and almost couldn't stand.

It felt like he had fired a shot into the air many years ago, and now it hit him right between the eyebrows.

"So you've never been attracted to me or liked me, right? All the things you did before were fake? And your love was fake too?" Although some of the answers were already very clear, he still wanted her to say it herself.

Wang Ruoqiu sneered out loud: "I said you are stupid and you still don't believe it. Can love and liking be used to make a living? I only know that I married you to enjoy happiness. If you can't give me the life I want, you should let go."

"Wang Ruoqiu, don't you think you are too selfish? Even if you have never cared about me, have you ever considered your son?"

"Don't worry about my son. His biological father will come to pick us up soon..."
