Chapter 24
But Sister He finally stopped crying and was happy, and Lu Ziwan didn't try to break the child's heart. Although she was a girl, it was better to be able to read than to be illiterate.

After comforting Sister He, when they returned to the yard, those annoying four people had already left. Also, the master ignored them. What else could they do if they didn't leave?
The four of them had nothing to do and sat under an old tree in the yard with their cheeks propped up to enjoy the cool air. The autumn tiger's summer was still too harsh for people. Seeing that the mint had dried up, Lu Ziwan took a bamboo basket out from the kitchen. , Hugged the mint under the tree, and prepared to separate the leaves and stems of the mint.

"Sister, is this our dinner?" Lu Banxia asked when she saw that Lu Ziwan was tinkering with the grass that she brought back today.

"Cousin Ziwan, actually the girl who came with Sister Fang is right. This is the same as the grass growing by the river at the end of the village. Is it really edible?" Sister Lan thought Lu Ziwan was real. Ready to cook.

"Is this a wild vegetable? Is it delicious?" Sister He took a mint and smelled it, then waved her hand, "Cousin Ziwan, this smells weird, it stinks, you can't eat it!"

Lu Ziwan looked at the three puzzled people, and smiled lightly, "This is not a wild vegetable, nor is it used for cooking, and it's not called a weed, it's called mint, it's a herbal medicine."

"Herbal medicine?" The three spoke in unison.

"Isn't it just herbal medicine?" Lu Ziwan couldn't help but chuckled in response to the three people's reactions, "When I'm done, I'll sell this mint for money, and I'll buy you delicious food!"

"Delicious? Candied haws? Meaty meat?" Sister He blinked her eyes, thinking of these when she heard something delicious.

"Yes, sister, can I buy meat after earning money?" Lu Banxia happily clapped her hands, "Sister, our family hasn't eaten meat for a long time."

"You two don't grow up." Sister Lan was amused, "You just know how to eat, and of course you have to put money away when you make money."

One sentence directly made the originally very excited people die all of a sudden, and continued to hold their cheeks and sighed as if it was a pity.

"It's okay, when I make money, my sister will buy you meat and candied haws, okay?" Lu Ziwan was a little sad. These children's childhood was really hard enough, even though she was in an orphanage in the 21st century. However, due to the long-term attention and help of well-meaning people in the society, the food in the orphanage has always been very good.

Seeing Lu Banxia and Sister He's eyes lit up when they talked about meat, Lu Ziwan swore in her heart that she must make money and make the family's life better!

"I don't want it anymore, Cousin Ziwan, I'd better put away the money and use it to buy pens and paper to teach Brother Xia and me how to read!" Sister He shook her head. Obviously, her desire for learning to read has surpassed food. In her heart, people who can read and write are great, and she wants to be a great person, and become a high-ranking official in the exam, so that no one will dare to bully their family in the future.

"Sister, I have saved money to repair the house, and I need to make a big door so that neither Lu Jinbao nor the aunt can get in. From now on, our family will not be afraid of running out of eggs!" Lu Banxia swallowed while speaking. Drooling, obviously still thinking about food, but more hope to repair the house.

"Sister He and Banxia are the most obedient." Lu Ziwan smiled and touched the child who was too early to understand, then lowered her head and continued to play with the mint in her hand.
