After hearing the rumors outside, Xiao Yihao suddenly realized that Jiang Chuyue had already made arrangements for sending them to Aunt Zhang's house yesterday?

"With what happened yesterday, aren't you worried that people will misunderstand you as being disrespectful to your elders?" Neither Xiao Yihao nor Jiang Chuyue could bear the consequences of being accused of disrespecting their elders.

"How could that be?" Jiang Chuyue smiled slyly, "I didn't say anything yesterday. It was all because your grandma was dissatisfied with us for not being good enough to her. She even coveted the food that was supposed to be given to other villagers."

All of this was planned by Jiang Chuyue. She was facing off against Liu Cui, and as a junior she was not at an advantage, so she could only wait until Liu Cui could no longer bear it and left on her own.

Jiang Chuyue also deliberately asked Liu Cui to help her collect medicinal herbs yesterday. Liu Cui could endure it for a while, but she couldn't endure it forever.

"It seems that you have already anticipated this day." Xiao Yihao also smiled. His tolerance for Liu Cui and He Hua has reached its limit. Now that Jiang Chuyue has helped him to make Liu Cui suffer such a huge loss, he is happy to see it happen.

"Let Aunt Zhang come back to cook when the time comes. It's been too depressing hiding in Aunt Zhang's house and cooking in secret these past two days." Jiang Chuyue leaned back, looking relaxed and at ease.

"Shuangshuang and Feng'er have gone to help move things." Before he finished speaking, Xiao Shuangshuang, Erniu and three other children came back from the Zhang family next door, each holding a bag of snacks.

Seeing this, Jiang Chuyue sat up suddenly, "Shuangshuang, Feng'er, there are too many snacks that can't be used!"

Although Jiang Chuyue felt sorry for the two children's difficult lives in the past, she would not spoil them too much. She had her own way of educating her children, and even Xiao Yihao could not interfere.

Xiao Shuangshuang and Xiao Feng pursed their lips somewhat unhappily, glanced at Xiao Yihao, and seeing that he had no intention of helping, they could only agree reluctantly.

"Oh, I know."

"And Erniu, you too, you can eat snacks, but don't be too extravagant." Jiang Chuyue pointed at Erniu again. She always treated these three children equally. If Xiao Shuangshuang and Xiao Feng had any snacks, she would also bring a portion for Erniu.

Aunt Zhang also knew everything. She knew that Jiang Chuyue was a kind-hearted person and she would never be unhappy because of Jiang Chuyue taking care of the children.

"Sister Jiang, yesterday's incident was quite a commotion. Now some people in the village are saying unpleasant things. You must not take it to heart. We all know what kind of people your grandmother and second aunt are. With your aunt Wang and aunt Li to help you, you don't have to worry."

Aunt Zhang, who has a good relationship with Aunt Wang and Aunt Li, is well aware of the various rumors in Wanshan Village. She said this to remind Jiang Chuyue that the current rumors are not very pleasant.

"Don't worry, Aunt Zhang. I believe that Aunt Wang and you will definitely clear my name." Jiang Chuyue revealed the matter with a smile.

I didn't take this matter to heart at all. What happened yesterday involved many people present, so even if Liu Cui and He Hua wanted to turn the tables, they couldn't.

What's more, half of the families in Wanshan Village are now counting on exchanging some food from Jiang Chuyue to survive the winter, and they will not offend Jiang Chuyue easily.

Since their own interests were involved, even if they were dissatisfied, they dared only keep it to themselves and still had to appear kind to Jiang Chuyue.

Jiang Chuyue, who was clear-headed, lived a routine life. The huge sum of money she earned from collecting medicinal herbs was approaching five thousand taels. If she saved a little more, she could buy a house in the county.

The two children will go to school next spring, and Jiang Chuyue is very worried about this.

He specifically sought out Manager Wei to inquire around and learned that the best school in the county was the County School. He then went to discuss the matter with Xiao Yihao that night.

"It's not easy to get into the county school. You need to have some connections. I've inquired and it costs at least one hundred taels." Jiang Chuyue did not hide anything from Xiao Yihao about the matter of getting into the county school.

Xiao Yihao is an unfathomable person, especially his final identity in the plot destined him to be no ordinary person, so Jiang Chuyue does not intend to fool around with things that are on the surface.

"Shuangshuang and Feng'er are getting older. They can't stay at home forever. We should make plans early." Seeing that Xiao Yihao didn't react, Jiang Chuyue became anxious.

"This matter is not urgent and needs long-term consideration." Xiao Yihao looked calm and there was nothing unusual about him, and his words were firm.

Jiang Chuyue was anxious, "Why are we still planning for the long term? Both children are twelve years old. In a few years, they should be able to get engaged."

Xiao Yihao didn't expect Jiang Chuyue to take this to heart. He glanced at her coldly and said, "Life at home is already difficult. It's not easy for you to support it alone. If you send two more children to the county school, it will be too tight."

Jiang Chuyue stared at Xiao Yihao for a long time. The two looked at each other, neither of them backed down. "Although this small business is not very profitable, it can still make a little money. In winter, more people will want to exchange for food."

What this means is that no matter what, Jiang Chuyue is determined to send her two children to the county school.

"As for the arrangements, you don't have to worry about it. I will make my own arrangements." Jiang Chuyue said so. It would be very strange if Xiao Yihao still objected.

"Since you have made up your mind, then let's do as you arranged. But Shuangshuang is a girl, so she just needs to go to a private school to learn a few words. Why not send her to a private school?" Xiao Yihao, who was born and raised in this feudal society, subconsciously felt that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent.

It's normal to say this.

However, Jiang Chuyue didn't want Xiao Shuangshuang to go with the crowd. She was unable to change the idea that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. However, she also hoped to do her best to allow Xiao Shuangshuang to be a free bird and choose the life she wanted, rather than being trapped by a man all her life, adhering to the idea that a woman should obey her husband until her death.

"We are all human, we can't be biased towards one or the other." Jiang Chuyue confirmed that Xiao Shuangshuang and Xiao Feng would attend the county school next year.

For this, Jiang Chuyue worked even harder, just to save more money so that she would not be without spare money when she arrived in the county in the future.

The days passed one by one, and the weather became colder and colder.

Jiang Chuyue had also changed her thin shirt.

After counting the numbers on the abacus, Jiang Chuyue saw that she had earned more than fifty taels from the medicinal herbs she collected today. She excitedly threw down the account book in her hand.

"Aunt Zhang, let's add some meat dishes tonight so we can celebrate." Sitting back in the chair with one foot hooked on the table leg, Jiang Chuyue leaned forward in a dangerous posture and shouted to Aunt Zhang who was busy in the kitchen.

"Okay." Aunt Zhang didn't ask anything.
