Reborn to face famine, I brought a space full of supplies!
Chapter 56 Liu Cui's Arrival
The more someone hides their emotions, the more difficult it is to figure out who they are, and the more frightening they are. A person who can perfectly control even the subtle emotions that he or she is not aware of is truly terrifying.
"Grandmother has never liked you. Sending such a person here at this time, what do you think he wants to do?" Xiao Yihao said what Jiang Chuyue was confused about.
She was completely focused on the affairs of the ancestral hall, and ignored the details that were not even secrets compared to the affairs of the ancestral hall.
"It seems that he doesn't want us to live a peaceful life." Jiang Chuyue supported her chin, leaned on the table, and her eyes drifted away.
Silence surrounded the two.
Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao had long been accustomed to it, and they did not feel embarrassed, nor did they feel uncomfortable.
"Tell me, when will the noise at the ancestral hall end?" Just as she was talking, Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang came back. Before they even stepped into the door, she could hear the noise of them chatting.
"The fire was really big. It burned down the ancestral hall." Aunt Wang has lived in Wanshan Village for many years, but this is the first time she has seen such a big fire.
"That's right. I've lived for so many years and have never seen it." Aunt Zhang couldn't help but sigh.
When Jiang Chuyue heard their voices, she quickly stood up and came out to greet them, "Aunt Wang, Aunt Zhang, what are you watching? Why don't you tell us about it?"
Aunt Wang was a gossip lover. Seeing Jiang Chuyue's curiosity, she immediately described in detail the fire in the ancestral hall and even the situation of the Shen family putting out the fire.
Her performance was humorous and funny, and even Xiao Yihao, who usually showed no emotion, was amused.
"It's winter now, there's not much water, and it's dry. It's a great relief that no one was hurt after such a big fire." Jiang Chuyue continued with a smile.
"That's right. Those elders and members of the Shen family were not hurt. A few of them were just choked by the smoke." It was indeed rare. Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang mentioned it on their way back.
If there were people in the ancestral hall, even if everyone was dissatisfied with the Shen family, they would still try their best to put out the fire and save people out of consideration for human lives.
Unfortunately, all the people in the ancestral hall had escaped, and because of such an oppressive ancestral hall, everyone naturally became a lot more lax.
Jiang Chuyue didn't respond, but asked, "Do they suspect that I was the one who set the fire in the ancestral hall?"
Aunt Zhang finally realized what was happening and clapped her hands, "That's right. As soon as the Shen family arrived, they said it was you, Jiang Meizi, who set the fire. Fortunately, we all know that the fire started after you left, and it started in the backyard of the ancestral hall. It has nothing to do with you."
Aunt Wang reacted faster, "Could it be that the Shen family is here to look for Sister Jiang?"
"The village chief has been here." Jiang Chuyue said calmly.
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang were so angry that they started talking to each other.
"You see, I knew they would still doubt Jiang Meizi."
"None of these members of the Shen family are easy to deal with." Aunt Zhang has spent the longest time with Jiang Chuyue and has the deepest feelings for her, so she is naturally more worried about her situation.
"Sister Jiang, is the village chief here to cause trouble for you?"
But looking at the appearance of Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao, they don’t look like they have ever been in trouble?
Aunt Zhang's heart began to beat fast.
"No." Jiang Chuyue told Shen Rong everything he said when he came to the old house in just a few words. Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang were also surprised after hearing it, because Shen Rong was not such an easy-going person before.
Such a big thing happened today. The Shen family is obviously very dissatisfied with Jiang Chuyue. They even suspect that Jiang Chuyue set fire to the ancestral hall. Can they just let it go so easily?
"Are they planning something else?"
"Who knows?" Jiang Chuyue was also curious about what Shen Rong's plan was, but since he was not in a hurry, why should she be in a hurry?
At worst, we can just fight back when the enemy comes. After all, Shen Rong doesn't seem that stupid. At least he won't act rashly against her before this winter is over.
If something happened to Jiang Chuyue, the already dissatisfied villagers of Wanshan Village would probably not be able to suppress their dissatisfaction.
Perhaps because Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao were so calm and composed, Aunt Zhang also calmed down.
It was not until Shen Rong personally sent Liu Cui to the house and before leaving reminded Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao to take good care of their elders and respect Liu Cui that Aunt Zhang's dissatisfaction was revealed again.
No matter how he looked at Liu Cui, something seemed wrong.
"I'm hungry, I want to eat meat!" Liu Cui came in a bossy manner. Jiang Chuyue crossed her arms and looked at Liu Cui, feeling a little doubtful. Could it be that Liu Cui was so confident because Shen Rong was backing her up behind her?
But Liu Cui really doesn't have much brains. Would Shen Rong support such a person?
"The rule at home is to eat whatever is available. People who don't cook shouldn't be picky." Jiang Chuyue did not hesitate to confront Liu Cui, and was not intimidated by her provocation. "Grandma, if you are hungry, you can cook something for yourself. Aunt Zhang has already made lunch for today. I only asked her to have three meals a day, nothing more."
After saying this, Jiang Chuyue turned around and left without even looking at Liu Cui's reaction.
Although Liu Cui is the elder, she is disrespectful and takes advantage of her seniority. She had previously teamed up with He Hua and Xiao Li to cause so much trouble for Jiang Chuyue. It was already very difficult for Jiang Chuyue to treat her like this.
"you……"
Aunt Zhang, who didn't have time to go on stage, hurriedly caught up with Jiang Chuyue.
There weren't many ingredients left in the Xiao family's kitchen. Most of them were kept in Jiang Chuyue's room. Whenever Aunt Zhang needed something, she could just go and get it.
Liu Cui wanted to cook herself a delicious meal, but it seemed impossible.
It was for this reason that Aunt Zhang felt at ease following Jiang Chuyue back to her room.
"Sister Jiang, you are not an easy-going grandmother. Why don't you just cook for me as you did before?" Aunt Zhang lowered her voice, fearing that Liu Cui would hear it.
"It's okay." Jiang Chuyue smiled. All the villagers in Wanshan Village knew how their family was living now. It was obviously not going to work to pretend to be poor at this time.
If Liu Cui didn't cause any trouble, Jiang Chuyue wouldn't mind keeping an idle person.
"But Aunt Zhang, I'm afraid you'll have to endure some hardship recently." With Liu Cui showing off at home, Aunt Zhang and Wu Gang will certainly not have an easy life.
Coincidentally, Jiang Chuyue also wanted to discuss something with Aunt Zhang.
"Aunt Zhang, I plan to pay you and Brother Wu for your work."
"How can this be possible?" Aunt Zhang quickly refused.
"Just listen to me first." Jiang Chuyue patted the back of Aunt Zhang's hand.
