Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

It wasn't until the new village chief arrived two days later that Wan Shufang went out and walked around the village.

I found that the atmosphere in the village had changed slightly after what happened two days ago, and the one who had changed the most was Aunt Dong's family.

In the past two days, Aunt Dong and his wife had made a lot of noises and made people laugh.

However, even if there is a estrangement between the couple and they have children and grandchildren, they can only continue to live their lives after the quarrel.

It's just that Aunt Dong's life is more difficult now than before. When Wan Shufang knew this, she just laughed it off, went home and took the whole family to the fields to observe the growth of medicinal materials, and then went to the mountains to collect herbs.

A month and a half passed in a blink of an eye. Most of the grain stores and other shops in the town were closed, but only the drug store was still open.

Wan Shufang saved half of the money she got from selling the medicine she collected to the drugstore, and used the other half to buy other daily necessities.

When the medicinal herbs in the field matured, she saved more and more money, and her family looked better and better, but relatively speaking, the situation of the villagers became worse.

On this day, the sun was still shining brightly on the earth. Wan Shufang went to the fields to pay attention to the growth of medicinal materials as usual, but she found a group of people approaching menacingly.

She had good eyesight, and when she saw these people, she noticed Gao Fangfang behind them.

Gao Fangfang, who was so thin that she could float away in the wind, was being dragged away by her hair like a dead dog.

"What are you doing? Let her go quickly!" Wan Shufang felt angry when she saw Gao Fangfang's condition.

"Wan Shufang, why are you here?" A middle-aged woman squeezed out from the crowd, looked at Wan Shufang in surprise, and then said earnestly: "Do you know how much the river bank has dropped in the past month and a half? How much has it seen at a glance? Every village depends on the water from this river to save their lives. Who would have thought that Gao Fangfang's family would steal water behind our backs."

Stealing water? Wan Shufang's heart skipped a beat. The Gao family's secret hoarding of water was discovered!

Gao Fangfang told her about water more than a month ago. She also wanted to stock up on water at that time, but later because of the bandit incident, she simply forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, Gao Fangfang's family has been hoarding water, but Gao Fangfang is a very cautious person, how could she be discovered?

Wan Shufang quickly asked: "The water in the river is there, and people in the village can pick it up. Why did Gao Fangfang steal the water? There may be a misunderstanding."

"Where is the misunderstanding? This is what her mother-in-law said personally. We are going to her house to find water now." The middle-aged woman was so angry that her voice became hoarse.

Was he betrayed by his mother's family? Wan Shufang's heart moved slightly and she was about to continue speaking.

But at this moment, Gao Fangfang said: "From the Chen family, I was wronged by my parents. They didn't believe it, so I took them to my house to see it. I believe that after they saw it, they would know what kind of lies my parents had told. "

Although she was smiling when she said this, she looked like she was about to cry.

Wan Shufang felt very uncomfortable. At this time, Chen Changli came over and said seriously: "The Gao family did not steal the water. There was someone else who stole the water. You have wronged the wrong person."

Seeing Chen Changli's words, the middle-aged woman was a little stunned for a moment as if she didn't know how to react.

Chen Changli said without changing his expression: "If you don't believe me, just follow me."

He said and walked directly to the left.

Wan Shufang and Gao Fangfang looked at each other, and a trace of confusion flashed in their eyes. Apparently they didn't know what medicine Chen Changli was selling in his gourd.

However, it was clear that Chen Changli was helping Gao Fangfang. Although Wan Shufang didn't know what his intentions were, she took this opportunity to rescue Gao Fangfang from the hands of others and led her to catch up with Chen Changli.

"Should we believe him?" The others looked at the middle-aged woman blankly.

"The water in the river is getting less and less. The crops we have replanted in the fields need water. Now if someone steals the water, they are cutting off our livelihood." The middle-aged woman gritted her teeth, "So we can't let anyone go. people."

As she said that, she quickly caught up with him. Her vigorous posture seemed to be worried that Chen Changli was lying to him, and she wanted to catch up with him and find out what he was up to.

Listening to the series of footsteps behind her, Wan Shufang felt a little panicked and couldn't help lowering her voice and asked: "What exactly is going on? Why did your mother-in-law want to report you?"

Gao Fangfang's face was filled with a wry smile: "My natal sister-in-law doesn't like me very much, and my mother is also a little alienated from me because of her. I didn't realize it before and told her what I was going to do at home."

"I never thought that my sister-in-law would tell her mother-in-law's family. That family was caught in the act of being careless. My mother pushed me out in order to protect my sister-in-law."

"Then what you just said to me..." Wan Shufang paused.

Gao Fangfang obviously knew why she paused, and quickly lowered her voice and replied: "We were all frightened by the bandits, and we haven't done that recently."

In other words, even if those people went to her house, it was just a trip in vain.

Wan Shufang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Chen Changli stopped, turned around and said to everyone: "Look, there is a path here. This path is much wetter than other roads, and from Going down this road is Lianhua Village, which is closest to Sifang Village."

"Lotus Village!" The middle-aged woman didn't know what she was thinking of, and left in a panic, and the others hurriedly chased after her.

"Why did they leave like that?" Wan Shufang couldn't help but ask without even reacting.

Chen Changli said solemnly: "Because they thought of one thing through this road, that is, people in other villages have realized how important water is and are hoarding water."

"It turns out I'm not the only one who reacted." Gao Fangfang thought she was smart, but she didn't expect that she was being smart.

Wan Shufang wanted to comfort her but didn't know how. She could only look at Chen Changli and saw that his brows were furrowed as if he was worried about something.

She almost reached out her hand to smooth the wrinkles on his brow, but then she reacted and held her hand, asking eagerly: "What are you thinking about?"

"I have been helping you deal with medicinal materials this month and have not paid attention to the river." Chen Changli's tone became more and more serious. "But if the river water is really getting less and less, and people in other villages have other thoughts, Then I’m afraid there will be a fight in several nearby villages.”

When Wan Shufang heard this, her face tightened instantly.

The same was true for Gao Fangfang, and her breathing began to become heavier.

"I'll go to the village chief and talk to him about this matter. You two should go back first." Chen Changli had a premonition that there would be more and more troubles in the future, so he went to the village chief to discuss the matter.

Gao Fangfang grabbed Wan Shufang's hand tightly and said in a panic: "Chen family, please take me home quickly. I have something very important to tell you."
