In the year of disaster in the book, the villain girl is the real winner

After the family split up, they became two families.

He Qiudi's backup suppression on He Qingshu was much lower.

Qingshu has the right to pursue her own happiness.

He Huaizhang's family of four felt it would be inappropriate to pack up and leave today, so they told old man He that he would take the whole family to the city when he went to the government office tomorrow.

They will stay in the He family's house for the time being, and will move out when they find a suitable house.

He Huaizhang didn't dare to occupy this house.

The property deeds are all in Mr. He's hands.

A lot happened today.

He Qiudi always felt like she had forgotten something. After asking He Huaian whether he had repaired the hole in the remote corner behind the village, she stopped paying attention to it after learning that He Huaian had already asked someone to repair it.

He Qingya was still comforting He Qinglu.

This time, He Qinglu seemed to really realize that Xu Yushi had really abandoned her and her sisters, and their mother would never come back.

When He Qiudi came over, He Qinglu was still crying.

He Qingya was getting a little impatient with his persuasion.

"San Ya, what's so good about a mother like that? She's remarried? Do you know what remarrying means? She's no longer my father's wife, and no longer a member of our He family. After she gives birth to the baby in her belly, any other children she has will have nothing to do with the He family. To put it bluntly, even if she dies, she won't be eligible to enter the He family's ancestral tomb. Do you understand?"

He Qinglu's eyes were blurred with tears.

"But... a child without my mother is just a weed. Sister, Qinglu doesn't want to be a weed."

Seeing her sister crying pitifully, He Qingya couldn't help but hug her shoulders and pat her back lovingly.

"Qinglu, with sister here, she won't let you become a straw. Even without mother, we still have father, aunt, and grandmother. We will all protect you well. Why do you miss mother? She wants to take us away because she needs a maid who can do things for her. We are beautiful, and when we discuss marriage, we can sell us for a good price, which will benefit her and her husband's family."

"Oh, sister. I miss my father."

"Qinglu, be good. Once the Xirong people in Fenghuang Mountain are dealt with and the official road from Ningyuan County to Wei County is safe, I will ask my aunt to find someone to take us to Wei County. Wei County is actually not fun. It's all mountains and wilderness. You can walk for a long time without seeing a single person."

He Qiudi watched for a while and then continued speaking along with what He Qingya said.

"In a while, I plan to accompany my eldest sister to Lan County, and I will take you to see your father. Tomorrow I want to go to the city to check out the situation and see if business is good. Qinglu, do you want to go? Call Sanlang, I will buy you some delicious food. I will also buy a goat and let grandma roast the whole goat for everyone to eat."

Only then did He Qinglu burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay..."

Also because a lot of things happened in the He family today.

This resulted in today's dinner being arranged in a hurry.

Old Mrs. He could no longer arrange meals for the family, so she handed it over to Jin Cuihua. Old Mrs. He was also worried that the family's savings would be eaten up in a few days, so she handed the task of arranging dinner over to He Qiudi.

Now in addition to the He family, there are also the Jin family, Qi Xi's family of four, Yang Liu and Yang Jiu, and the three helpers arranged by Feng Shiyan to help make soap, who can actually serve as guards.

So many people.

He Qiudi just followed Old Lady He's usual arrangements.

There is enough staple food.

We will also give everyone some meat dishes.

As for He Baozhu, her mother and her two children, and Old Lady He and her three relatives, they ate separately.

After dinner.

He Qiudi wandered around the village, releasing groundwater everywhere.

The terrain of Shiliu Village is high, and she was too lazy to run, so she just released water into the village. The groundwater would spread to the surrounding areas and would be enough for the use of Shiliu Village and the surrounding areas.

If they want to grow winter wheat, there is enough water.

Yang Liu just followed her slowly.

If He Qiudi stopped, he would stop.

If He Qiudi leaves, he will leave.

This made He Qiudi a little helpless: "Yang Liu, I'm not that weak. I asked you to follow me all the time. If others saw you in the middle of the night, they would think you were a ghost. You want to follow me, and I have no objection, but can you go back and change your clothes? You want to pick two random villagers who come out to chat after dinner in a white dress?"

Yang Liu: ...

"Miss Qiu Di, please wait a moment. I'll be there in a moment, please don't go too far."

He Qiudi waved his hand: "I will just follow this path and take a walk to digest my food. After I finish this walk, I will go back to the He family."

Yang Liu glanced at He Qiudi and finally turned and left.

He Qiudi continued walking forward and unknowingly arrived near the Li family.

She saw several figures through the Li family's window.

But as she approached, the lights in the Li family were blown out.

He Qiudi frowned.

If she hadn't blown out the light, she wouldn't have noticed, but when she got closer, she blew out the light.

This made He Qiudi feel that the Li family was abnormal.

She quietly retreated behind the pomegranate tree nearby and observed for a while. She found that the lights in the Li family were lit again. Then she heard the crying of a child and the cursing of old lady Li. She wanted to get closer.

Suddenly a black voice approached, and the other party's voice was low: "Ms. Qiu Di, don't go."

Not Yang Liu!

He Qiudi was suddenly frightened.

Turning around, he saw a man in black standing not far behind him, with half a mask on his face.

"Who are you?"

She was startled, but she didn't sense any murderous intent from the other person, so she relaxed her guard and looked at him and asked.

The other party bowed to her and said, "Miss Qiudi, I am Yang Qi, and I am here to protect Miss Qiudi on the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"When did you start following me?" After asking this question, He Qiudi couldn't help but sweat profusely.

Yang Qi hesitated for a moment before saying, "A long time..."

He Qiudi didn't ask any more questions.

I’m afraid that after she gave Feng Shiyan the two “daggers”, he sent someone to guard her.

After all, that "short knife" was just an ordinary knife to her, but to Feng Shiyan, it was an extremely rare "treasure sword".

He Qiudi asked, "Why didn't you let me go? Is there something fishy going on with the Li family?"

Yang Qi said: "Yes. Judging from the breathing and footsteps, there are several adult men in the Li family. But the sons of the Li family have gone to perform labor service and are not in the village."

He Qiudi frowned. "Could they be relatives from Old Lady Li's family? After all, I heard from her before that she has many brothers and nephews from her family. Lizhou is suffering from drought, and food and drink in the city cost money. At least Pomegranate Village is not short of water, so it's not surprising that they would come here for refuge. I was at the old well, and I heard someone say that a relative of the Li family came to stay with them?"

Yang Qi hesitated and said, "But the people in the Li family should be from the military. Their breathing rhythm and footsteps are different from those of ordinary people."

He Qiudi gasped: "Is it the Li family who acted as traitors and brought the Xirong people in? But what good will it do them to bring the Xirong people in?"
