Reborn to face famine, I brought a space full of supplies!
Chapter 34 Caught on the spot
Although digging medicinal herbs in exchange for food is important, isn’t your own life more important?
It is understandable that Jiang Chuyue would think this way, but some of these people have hungry children at home, and family members who rely on them to dig some medicinal herbs in exchange for a meal every day.
They really couldn't afford to wait. Even though they knew there were dangers on the mountain, they still had to take the risk and go up the mountain, because if they stopped, their families might not even have food for the next day.
Looking at the people standing in the yard in silence, Jiang Chuyue knew that they did not take her words to heart.
I can't help but get a little anxious. "That brown bear is three or four people tall. If it slaps us, we'll lose our lives. At this moment, everyone should put safety first."
Seeing that Jiang Chuyue was anxious, Aunt Wang pulled her and motioned for Jiang Chuyue to follow her into the house.
"Sister Jiang, what you said is for the good of everyone. We all know that." Aunt Wang also looked embarrassed. "But we are all poor people. Several people in the family rely on the food we get from exchanging herbs for food. Winter is coming and the weather is getting colder. When the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, even the road to dig herbs will be gone. By then..."
Aunt Wang let out a long sigh.
What she said was exactly what the villagers were worried about. How could they not know the risks of going up the mountain to collect herbs?
There were snakes, insects, rats and ants on the mountain, and poisonous snakes were encountered from time to time, but they had no choice but to keep moving forward, just to earn a little food to bring back.
If you can support a family, who wouldn’t want to relax a little?
Jiang Chuyue was silent, she knew that the villagers were living a hard life, but perhaps because she had made her own living space right away and didn't have to worry about food shortages, she forgot how hard life was for ordinary people.
She never thought of herself as a noble person, but she had unknowingly become someone who was not minced meat.
"I'll think about this matter again." But whether he intervened or not, the matter would be difficult to resolve.
The brown bear we met today was obviously extremely hungry, otherwise it would not have decisively attacked Jiang Chuyue. Humans are not on the bears' food list, and the fact that they acted like this shows that they are indeed extremely hungry.
After leaving the room and exchanging food, Jiang Chuyue scooped an extra spoonful of rice into each person's cloth bag. There wasn't much she could do for them, but she just tried her best.
"Eat well first. We can deal with anything after dinner." Xiao Yihao also knew what happened today. When he saw Jiang Chuyue sitting at the table and staring blankly while holding the chopsticks, he couldn't help but reach out and pat her on the shoulder.
Jiang Chuyue came back to her senses and ate two bites. She didn't have much appetite, so she put down her chopsticks and left, "I'm full, you guys take your time."
He quickly went back to his room. Seeing the oil lamp lit in the room, Xiao Yihao met Aunt Zhang's worried eyes and said to comfort her, "It's okay. I just need to trouble Aunt Zhang to save some food for Chu Yue later."
Aunt Zhang agreed promptly and immediately stood up and took out a clean meal and placed it aside.
After dinner, Xiao Yihao brought the food that Aunt Zhang had rewarmed into the room.
"Are you still thinking about what happened on the mountain today?"
Jiang Chuyue supported her chin with her hand, her eyes were unfocused, and she held a brush in one hand, but her posture was obviously wrong.
Seeing Xiao Yihao coming in, Jiang Chuyue gathered her thoughts and said, "I don't feel like eating."
Looking at the food on the table, Jiang Chuyue frowned.
"This is Aunt Zhang's gift. Don't waste it. If Aunt Zhang knew, she would be upset." Xiao Yihao did not mention that he had asked Aunt Zhang to keep the food for her.
After hearing what Xiao Yihao said, Jiang Chuyue hesitated for a moment, but still took the bowl and started eating slowly.
While eating, she briefly told Xiao Yihao what happened in the mountain today, and naturally skipped the incident where the brown bear attacked her and she escaped from it with the help of space.
"Life is not easy for the common people." Xiao Yihao felt a little surprised after listening to Jiang Chuyue's sigh. Although Jiang Chuyue helped many villagers by collecting medicinal herbs, he seemed to have always overlooked one point. Jiang Chuyue initially decided to do this small business not just for the sake of making money.
"Back then, wasn't our family so hungry that we couldn't even have a decent meal?" Xiao Yihao brought up the past, and Jiang Chuyue buried her head even deeper in embarrassment.
That was all the original owner's business. Jiang Chuyue didn't deliberately want to make trouble for Xiao Yihao and the two children.
"If you hadn't gone up the mountain to collect herbs to earn money to support the family, our family would have starved to death long ago." Xiao Yihao was telling the truth. Although he felt that Jiang Chuyue's transformation was strange, he had to admit that if Jiang Chuyue hadn't supported the family, the family would have fallen apart long ago.
He is a disabled person and can't even take care of himself, so how can he take care of two young siblings?
"We are a family, and we shouldn't have different opinions." Jiang Chuyue smiled dryly.
Xiao Yihao's words eased the heavy atmosphere a little at the right time. Seeing that Jiang Chuyue's frown was still not relieved, Xiao Yihao changed the subject.
"Come to think of it, there is something else that happened today that I think will make you happy."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chuyue's ears pricked up.
"I heard that Second Aunt was caught secretly with someone by grandma. However, grandma is old, and was no match for the man, so he ran away." In just a few words, Xiao Yihao lightly told the story of He Hua's secret meeting.
Looking at Jiang Chuyue's wide eyes and undisguised surprise, Xiao Yihao couldn't help but wonder, did Jiang Chuyue really know nothing?
Her reaction couldn't be faked, but her confident words yesterday were also really strange.
Jiang Chuyue, who had never thought that she was suspected, was still shocked that Zhang San and his men had come up with a big move and directly arrested Liu Cui on the spot.
In this case, even if He Hua wanted to distance herself from the matter, she probably couldn't, right?
No wonder Zhang San and the others haven’t taken any action yet. Are they waiting here?
Jiang Chuyue, who was shocked by Zhang San and his friends' methods, and Xiao Yihao, who doubted his own judgment, each had their own thoughts.
"It seems that the love story between you and Miss Shen Tang has been suppressed?" Jiang Chuyue asked tentatively.
Seeing Xiao Yihao nodded, he became even more satisfied with the methods of Zhang San and his friends. He even secretly decided that he would definitely praise Zhang San and his friends the next time they met.
"How will the matter of Second Aunt's secret meeting be handled?" This is what Jiang Chuyue is most curious about right now.
Xiao Yihao glanced at her and said, "They obviously don't intend to let outsiders know. After all, if this kind of thing gets out, they will lose face."
Liu Cui is a person who attaches great importance to reputation.
