Chapter 69: Is a woman’s virtue due to her lack of talent?

Liu Cui never expected that Jiang Chuyue would not give her the slightest bit of face. Her face turned blue and purple, which was very ugly.

Unfortunately, no one tried to smooth things over for her. Aunt Zhang had long seen through Liu Cui's little tricks and naturally refused to help. Seeing that Xiao Shuangshuang seemed a little uneasy, she grabbed Xiao Shuangshuang and gave her a soothing smile. Xiao Shuangshuang felt a little relieved and lowered her head without saying a word.

"Grandma, whether you go back to the second room or not is entirely up to you." Xiao Yihao pushed the wheelchair into the room by himself. Jiang Chuyue called a few children and Aunt Zhang and others, and went into the room together.

The weather was getting colder, and the children were too cold to go out to play. Jiang Chuyue took this opportunity to focus on the children's homework and taught them to read and write.

Xiao Shuangshuang was the most hardworking of the three, but she heard something from somewhere and suddenly one day after she came back, she refused to study anymore.

Jiang Chuyue was not annoyed, "Shuangshuang, can you talk to your sister-in-law about why you don't want to study and learn to read?" She squatted down and her eyes were level with Xiao Shuangshuang.

"Sister-in-law, does it mean a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent?" Xiao Shuangshuang's words made Jiang Chuyue's scalp numb.

"Who said that?" Jiang Chuyue knew that within the limitations of this era, there was indeed a saying that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. Now, due to poor harvests, people's lives were becoming increasingly difficult, and even fewer people sent their children to school to learn to read and write.

But Jiang Chuyue didn't expect Xiao Shuangshuang to be like this. "Shuangshuang, reading and learning to read is to make you sensible and know what to do when you encounter problems in the future. If you don't like studying, sister-in-law will naturally not force you, but sister-in-law doesn't want you to give up what you are interested in because of other people's rumors."

Xiao Shuangshuang is smart and learns things quickly. Her talent for studying is even higher than Xiao Feng's. Jiang Chuyue doesn't want her to be trapped in Wanshan Village for the rest of her life.

"Sister-in-law plans to send you to the county school, hoping that you can do what you want to do in the future."

Jiang Chuyue spoke seriously and looked solemn, and it was unknown how much Xiao Shuangshuang took in. But after this incident, Xiao Shuangshuang did study more seriously.

Jiang Chuyue's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

"Are you still in contact with those people?" Jiang Chuyue asked suddenly. Xiao Yihao was stunned for a moment before he reacted and answered.

"No." After thinking for a while, he added, "They always contact me first, and I don't know where they are. Why did you ask about them?"

Jiang Chuyue has never been a person who speaks without a purpose. If she suddenly asked them about something, there must be something wrong.

"I suspect someone else was behind the matter regarding the Wu family and the ancestral hall." Jiang Chuyue stared at Xiao Yihao's face carefully, not missing any subtle expression.

"Wasn't it Shen Tang who took over the Wu family?" Xiao Yihao asked with a frown.

Jiang Chuyue was silent for a moment, then said, "Before the New Year, Wu Lian came to see me and said that the person who ordered her might not be Shen Tang."

Afterwards, Jiang Chuyue told Xiao Yihao all the details of the incident. Xiao Yihao listened carefully and asked a few questions from time to time. In the end, he also felt that Jiang Chuyue's judgment made some sense.

"There is no solid evidence, and no other clues. It may be difficult to find out what happened to the Shen family."

"It's naturally difficult to find out the truth." Jiang Chuyue casually found a bench to sit down and continued, "But I went to the ancestral hall in person two days ago and confirmed that someone had deliberately set the fire in the ancestral hall, and I also picked up something."

Jiang Chuyue took out a piece of cloth with a kerosene stain on it. "If I remember correctly, this thing should not be a piece of cloth that people in Wanshan Village can have, right?"

Handing it to Xiao Yihao, the fabric felt a little cool, smooth and fine to the touch, obviously not cheap. Xiao Yihao understood why Jiang Chuyue suspected those people.

Putting the cloth on the table, "This is indeed not a cloth that people in Wanshan Village can afford. Even in the town, there are not many people who can afford it."

At this point, Jiang Chuyue understood, "It seems that it is most likely the work of those people, but I am very curious, why did they attack me? No matter what, I am your legitimate wife, and now I am supporting the family. Don't you think it is a bit strange that they would attack me at this time?"

Jiang Chuyue’s question was exactly what Xiao Yihao couldn’t understand.

"I don't know the truth about this matter. If you want to find out, why don't you find a chance to test it?" Xiao Yihao wasn't sure what Jiang Chuyue meant, but those people had some connection with him after all. Even if they wanted to investigate, he had to take the initiative to propose it first.

"No need. You don't even know where they are, how can you test them?" Jiang Chuyue felt a little headache. "It's not good to alert them now. More importantly, they are still checking whether there is any problem with your identity. If they really want to kill me, they will definitely not use such a simple method."

Since he doesn't really want Jiang Chuyue's life, Jiang Chuyue doesn't need to be too anxious.

With this, Xiao Yihao also understood, "I'll remember this matter. If there is a chance in the future, I will naturally figure it out for you. But you still need to keep a low profile in the future, and never let others find the opportunity again."

Jiang Chuyue's luck is pretty good, but she doesn't always have such good luck.

Jiang Chuyue understood what Xiao Yihao hadn't finished saying. She nodded, stood up and walked away gracefully, "I have something else to do. I'll go get busy first."

Almost everything that needed to be said had been said, and it was time for Jiang Chuyue to go about her own business.

Because it was the Chinese New Year, Aunt Zhang called people to make dumplings early in the morning. Although Jiang Chuyue was not good at making dumplings, such a lively scene was always something she yearned for.

Jiang Chuyue squeezed into the dumpling-making team and learned how to make dumplings while listening to Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang chatting about some gossip in the village.

It is said that there was trouble in the second room again in the past two days, and Xiao Li seemed to have attacked He Hua again, but after Liu Cui went there, the situation calmed down.

"Sister Jiang, I think you should keep an eye on your grandma. She is not a good person." Aunt Wang glanced in the direction of the kitchen and reminded them in a voice that only they could hear.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Chuyue followed Aunt Zhang's instructions and pinched the dumplings into the shape of a gold ingot.

"Yesterday I saw her carrying something back to the second room, but when she came out the bag was gone. You have a lot of grain and meat at home, so you'd better be careful to make sure that no one sneaks it out." Aunt Wang was a little anxious, fearing that Jiang Chuyue would be deceived by Liu Cui's actions.
