Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

That night, Jiang Yao's whimpering sound came from the garrison. Many people asked worriedly, but they were all dismissed by the village chief's daughter-in-law, Zhao Chunfang, with a few words.

After sending another person away, Zhao Chunfang pulled Jiang Yao to a carriage. The mother and daughter sat opposite each other, and Zhao Chunfang asked: "Mom, I want to ask you, what do you think?"

Jiang Yao burst into tears, feeling extremely resentful that she couldn't speak now. If she could speak, she might be able to ask her mother to let her persuade her father to help her.

Zhao Chunfang was so angry that she forgot that her daughter couldn't speak for a while, and immediately changed her words: "I'd better ask you, you nod and shake your head."

Jiang Yao nodded.

"Are you interested in that person named Yun Qi?"

Jiang Yao's face turned red and she nodded reservedly.

Zhao Chunfang sighed, "You also know what your father thinks. We don't know anything about that person. Can you tell me why you fell in love with him? Huh?"

"Forget it if you fall in love with him. You, a girl, are running after him all day long. What's wrong? Don't want your reputation? I think you want to piss your mother off to death..."

Zhao Chunfang muttered for a while, but Jiang Yao had no choice but to endure it.

"I heard from your father that our family can't match that man. You'd better give up this idea as soon as possible. When you get to your new residence, mother will find a good family for you to marry. In the next few days, you are not allowed to Leave me half a step away."

After Jiang Yao listened to the last sentence in disbelief, big tears fell down, and she took a step too slow to hold her mother back, and started to cry again.

Jiang Huaixu only knew that the day after she heard the crying, she always saw Jiang Yao with her aunt beside her. But soon she no longer cared about Jiang Yao's affairs. A serious problem occurred in the team - they ran out of water.

They could no longer see green on the road. In addition to people, animals also needed water to eat hay. If they didn't drink water, they wouldn't have the strength to walk at all. Finding water sources became the most urgent thing at the moment.

After finding a place to camp at night, the men went together to find water. Jiang Huaixu asked the group: "Can your scanning range be upgraded?" 】

[It’s almost ready, host. 】

【Upgrade. 】

Fu Tuan reluctantly said "Oh".

[I’ll check in the interstellar mall later to see if there’s anything I need. I’ll buy it and give you a commission, so I won’t make you a pauper. 】

Fu Tuan immediately beamed with joy, "The host is truly the kindest person I have ever seen." 】

Immediately afterwards, it begins to upgrade the scanning range.

【alright! 】Fu Tuan rubbed against Jiang Huaixu's legs, 【With this upgrade, I can mark the location for you on the light screen. 】

Jiang Huaixu nodded with satisfaction, "Look to see if there are any places with a lot of mosquitoes nearby. Mark the places with a lot of vegetation for me." 】

On the light screen in front of her, many red light spots were immediately marked on the map with her as the center and a radius of three thousand meters.

Picking up the blessing balls on the ground, Jiang Huaixu walked towards the red light spot closest to her.

[Why is there a light spot so bright inside? 】Jiang Huaixu said strangely, she noticed that one of the light spots on the light screen not only lit up but also flickered.

[It means there is the greatest possibility of finding water. 】

Jiang Huaixu couldn't help but be amazed. She followed the brightest red light and soon left the camp.

As she walked, she came to a place full of big rocks.

If you stop and listen carefully, you can actually hear the trickling sound of running water.

[Host, behind the big rock at your three o'clock direction. 】

Jiang Huaixu followed the instructions and walked around to take a look. The banyan tree's extremely developed aerial roots were rooted beside a large stone. The bottom of the stone was recessed. Water kept dripping from the upper layer of the recessed stone wall to the ground, as if to nourish the tree. banyan tree.

Jiang Huaixu looked up at the banyan tree above his head. The branches were extremely wide and thick, and the trunk was also extremely thick.

She is a staunch materialist, but...she clasps her hands and mutters something to herself. Sometimes she has to believe in some evil things, which makes her inherently evil.

After worshiping all the gods and Buddhas, Jiang Huaixu placed a bamboo tube under the dripping rock and ran to call someone.

When Jiang Huaixu came back with his men, Jiang Huaixu's bamboo tube was already filled with water.

When Boss Jiang saw the situation here, he felt that there should be underground water in this place.

After discussing with the villagers, they took the tools and found a place to start digging.

Seeing how vigorously they were digging, Jiang Huaixu didn't intend to join in the fun, so he turned around and left.

After returning to the station, Jiang Huaixu walked around the Interstellar Mall and didn't think about what to buy. She felt that based on their current situation, the things in the modern mall were much more practical than those in the Interstellar Mall.

After searching for a long time, she bought a lot of fruit seeds from the interstellar mall and planned to plant them in interstellar space to see if they could be eaten.

Not long after returning to the station, news came out that water had been dug. The villagers were as happy as if they were celebrating the New Year, and brought everything at home that could hold water to collect water.

Jiang Huaixu could buy water in space, so she didn't join in the fun. She pulled out the map, looked at it and threw it aside. She found Yun Qi and asked, "How much distance do we have left?"

"Didn't I give you the map?" Yun Qi asked.

Jiang Huaixu looked at him quietly, not wanting to admit that she couldn't understand where they were now.

"The map you took out seems to be afraid that others can understand it."

Cloud Seven:······

He said: "It's still half a month's journey from here to Chongming Mansion."

Jiang Huaixu calculated that based on their current journey, they were about six to seven hundred miles away from Chongming Mansion. She was a little worried that Chongming Mansion was still dry in the past.

"Isn't there a drought in Chongming Mansion? If the drought continues, can so many of us enter the city?"

Yun Qi didn't answer this time.

Jiang Huaixu knew that Yun Qi didn't know either, but her purpose was just to make Yun Qi hear this.

The favors owed by Yun Qi in the past were all repaid to her when she arrived at Chongming Mansion.

Two days passed quickly. On this day, Jiang Huaixu and his party passed through another village.

The village this time was different from the ones we had passed before. It was too quiet.

Jiang Zhengmao led a few people to check the village and found that all the people in the village had fled, and every household had nothing but walls.

"In that case, let's rest in this village tonight. Otherwise, the wind will hurt your face while sleeping outside."

Naturally, the villagers didn't have any objections as there was a place to keep out the wind, and even the family members agreed, so everyone packed up and started making dinner.

Amid the commotion, a piercing scream suddenly echoed throughout the village. The villagers immediately put down their work and ran to the direction of the sound to watch.

Zhao Chunfang, who had just screamed, pointed to a large clay pot placed in the corner of the room, unable to say a word.

Jiang Huaixu walked over and realized that the big clay pot contained the body of a small child.

Jiang Zhengmao, who came with him, trembled and said, "Why, how could there be a child's body?"
