As soon as they finished collecting the Apple Snails, the two of them huffed and puffed as they carried the wooden bucket home.
Upon entering the house, they found several people staring blankly at a pile of items that Xia Muxin had bought. When they saw Xia Muxin return, their faces flashed with embarrassment.
"Muxin, what happened? Why are you all wet?"
The room was dimly lit, and Xia Tieshu was the first to notice that Xia Muxin was drenched. He asked with concern, stretching his neck to look outside, fearing they had been bullied again.
"Brother, it's nothing. It feels nice and cool like this." Xia Muxin replied with a cheerful smile, waving her hand nonchalantly as she and Songzi brought the wooden bucket inside.
"Muxin, what are you doing with these?" Summer Forest struggled to speak, while Xia Tieshu's legs felt weak, and Aunt Xia was pregnant and frail. The three of them stared at the siblings lifting the bucket with puzzled expressions. They had been frowning, wondering what was going on with the two of them when they realized what was inside the bucket. Summer Forest was the first to exclaim in surprise.
It was the first time Xia Muxin had seen her father lose his composure like this; she couldn't help but laugh until she nearly doubled over. It wasn't until Songzi nudged her with an elbow that she finally managed to stifle her laughter.
Seeing her sister hold back her laughter made Songzi burst into fits of giggles, causing the other three to raise their eyebrows in confusion and frown even deeper.
"Alright, Songzi, clean this up. I'm going to cook," Xia Muxin said after laughing enough. She pulled Songzi aside and gestured toward the contents of the bucket before rolling up her sleeves to wash the rice.
"Muxin, what's going on with you these days? You're being all mysterious. Don't scare your mother!" Knowing that Xia Muxin was the best cook in the family, Aunt Xia refrained from interfering as she helped stoke the fire. After watching Xia Muxin swiftly prepare the bamboo tube filled with rice for cooking, she hesitated for a moment before voicing her concerns.
"Mother, I'm fine. Don't worry. I just figured some things out and want to create wealth with my own hands. You all are my strongest support."
Xia Muxin wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and took out the dozens of small fish that Songzi had caught earlier, placing them into a broken basin. As she cleaned them, she replied.
She had originally wanted to eat the big fish, but with the weather being so hot and the small fish having been kept for one or two days, she feared they would all die if not eaten soon. That would mean all of Songzi's efforts would be in vain.
Aunt Xia was stunned by Xia Muxin's mention of creating wealth and took a long time to regain her composure. In their mountainous area, there were only trees and fields; besides, their family had nothing. How could they create wealth?
Xia Muxin could see her mother's confusion at a glance and said, "Mother, at this time, as long as you think carefully and create opportunities, even a drop of water can flow into an ocean. What we need is confidence and the ability to seize opportunities. Look, just a few days ago, our family went from eating tree bark to eating rice and fish. That is change."
As Xia Muxin explained, she felt a bit frustrated, as if she were trying to brainwash her mother like a sales leader. She couldn't help but shiver slightly.
"Oh dear, Mother, just trust me; you won't be wrong. My sister is the most remarkable person in the world."
