Reborn to face famine, I brought a space full of supplies!
Chapter 171 Dark Shadow
Jiang Chuyue knew that she had to find out who the person who poisoned the food was and what his purpose was in order to completely prevent such incidents from happening again.
"That's no big deal. At least we have hope for our lives now. We don't have to worry about where we'll have food to eat next." Aunt Li also joined in the conversation with a smile. For them, being able to guard this piece of land and watch the medicinal herbs and crops in the fields sprout and grow is already very satisfying.
They don't have to worry about running out of food at home, and their lives have a future, so they are willing to endure a little hardship.
After chatting with Aunt Wang and the others, Jiang Chuyue felt a little more at ease. Although the poisoning incident was definitely related to her, the villagers' lives were indeed not as hopeless as before.
Jiang Chuyue, who felt relieved from the psychological burden, privately pondered the cause and effect of the poisoning incident, but did not find any other useful clues.
To no avail, I had to put it aside for now.
Waiting for the return of Xiao Yihao and others.
Life went on as usual, but at night, Wanshan Village became even more lively because more people slept on the ground.
Jiang Chuyue was in a rare mood and planned to go out for a walk. Just as she was about to close the doors and windows and go out, a black shadow swooped down from the treetops and landed in front of Jiang Chuyue.
"Are you finally back?" Although this person was wearing night clothes, Jiang Chuyue still recognized him at a glance.
"Yeah." The black shadow nodded slightly, gave a look, and Jiang Chuyue moved sideways to let him in.
After entering the room, Jiang Chuyue watched Xiao Yihao take off his mask and drink several glasses of water. She laughed so hard that she couldn't speak. "Where did you come back from? You're so thirsty."
"I've been traveling day and night, anxious to come back." Xiao Yihao was frugal with his words. After he finished speaking, he took the pastries that Jiang Chuyue had just brought from the kitchen and ate them in silence.
Jiang Chuyue, who was originally anxious, has now calmed down. Now that Xiao Yihao is back, some things can be reasonably explained.
There is no need to rush.
Soon the only sounds in the room were Xiao Yihao eating cakes and drinking water. Until he finally put down the cup and turned to meet Jiang Chuyue's direct gaze, Xiao Yihao remained silent.
Jiang Chuyue was a little anxious, "Did you encounter any trouble on this trip?"
"I haven't encountered any trouble." Xiao Yihao's voice was inexplicably cold.
"If there's no trouble, why is there no news at all?" Jiang Chuyue asked with a frown.
Xiao Yihao was silent again. When Jiang Chuyue was anxious and opened her mouth, Xiao Yihao said, "I sent letters, but they were all secretly intercepted. Later, I found out that it was the people from Shuiyun Pavilion who were behind it. I was worried that you were also involved, so I stopped sending letters back, but I also asked Liu Wu to explain the situation in the letter."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Chuyue didn't quite understand what Xiao Yihao meant. "Liu Wu's letter could be sent back, but yours couldn't?"
"Yes, you guessed right." This matter was really strange. When Xiao Yihao and Liu Wu discovered this problem, they secretly sent people to find out who was behind the act, but after searching for a long time, they found nothing.
Because of the busy affairs in the south, the matter had to be put on hold temporarily. But even so, Xiao Yihao asked Liu Wu to explain the situation in the letter to prevent Jiang Chuyue from feeling uneasy at home.
"But I later found out that Mr. Liu never sent anyone to inform you of the situation, which led to your ignorance of my trip south." After Xiao Yihao finished speaking, Jiang Chuyue sensed something was wrong.
"Why doesn't Mr. Liu want to tell me?" Jiang Chuyue subconsciously asked what was on her mind. She didn't expect Xiao Yihao to give her a definite answer.
But when Xiao Yihao answered, Jiang Chuyue fell silent.
"Mr. Liu doesn't want you to be involved in anything related to Shuiyun Pavilion, even in the slightest."
Meeting Jiang Chuyue's puzzled gaze, Xiao Yihao felt a little dry in his throat, but there were some things he needed to explain clearly to Jiang Chuyue, otherwise she would always be worried and would inevitably think too much.
"Mr. Liu doesn't want a woman to be involved in the management affairs of Shuiyun Pavilion, and he is even more worried that I will make a decision under your influence, so..."
Jiang Chuyue understood the rest of the words without any further explanation.
"So he wants to cut off all connections between you and me?" Jiang Chuyue sneered, her tone full of sarcasm.
"However, there is one thing that I may need your help with." Xiao Yihao was caught between Liu Mo and Jiang Chuyue and was really in a difficult situation.
He didn't think Jiang Chuyue was a tactless person, but Liu Mo's actions really made Xiao Yihao a little puzzled. However, in order to take over Shuiyun Pavilion, he and Jiang Chuyue had to endure it for the time being.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chuyue's voice was obviously cold.
"This time when we went south, someone was poisoned and the doctors in Shuiyun Pavilion were unable to do anything about it, so Mr. Liu would like to ask you to give it a try." Xiao Yihao's words were particularly difficult to say.
Jiang Chuyue didn't get angry but laughed instead and glanced at Xiao Yihao coldly.
Whenever he needed someone, he thought of her. When he no longer needed her, he wanted to cut off all ties with her. Liu Mo's calculations were too good.
"Why should I help him detoxify the people in Shuiyun Pavilion?" Since Liu Mo is capable of doing such a thing, don't blame Jiang Chuyue for being unkind.
Xiao Yihao also fell silent. He didn't know how to bring up this matter. If that person hadn't followed them and solved a lot of troubles for them on their journey south, he wouldn't have wanted to speak to Jiang Chuyue.
"I've talked to Mr. Liu. If you can save him, I can offer a condition." Xiao Yihao spoke slowly, carefully paying attention to Jiang Chuyue's expression while speaking.
Seeing that Jiang Chuyue's face was getting colder, Xiao Yihao quickly added, "This man helped Liu Wu and me a lot, and he was the one who saved Jingchun when she got into trouble while traveling south."
Hearing Mo Jingchun's name, Jiang Chuyue's eyes lit up, "Where is Jingchun now?"
"She is still in Shuiyun Pavilion. She was punished by Old Liu for acting on her own and is not allowed to leave for the time being." Xiao Yihao knew that Jiang Chuyue valued Mo Jingchun very much, so he also told her about Mo Jingchun's trip south.
"The news you received was false. Someone deliberately set a trap and waited for Jingchun to fall into it. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, so everything is fine."
Although Xiao Yihao's words sounded light, Jiang Chuyue understood that a scheme that almost cost Mo Jingchun his life could not be simple.
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Chuyue finally gave in, "I can try to detoxify that person, but I can't guarantee that I can cure him."
The situation is unclear now, so Jiang Chuyue naturally cannot make any guarantees.
But Xiao Yihao was relieved to hear Jiang Chuyue's words. "I know you have been wronged in this matter. I will give you an explanation after I find out everything."
"What should I explain?" Jiang Chuyue lowered her eyes.
