Fragrant Countryside: A Spicy Little Wife at Home

At the beginning, the heroine fainted on the roadside, was said to have "eloped", and was stuffed into a pig cage.

Why was she beaten again? In short, too much does not make sense, or it is not explained clearly. Chapter 20 or so, when the heroine and her father were discussing what they needed to buy after selling the medicinal materials and getting the first pot of gold, they actually listed a bunch of things such as new clothes, which were not urgent needs. The whole village was short of food due to drought, and it was not yet known whether there would be a harvest, but they actually wanted to buy new clothes?
