Reborn to face famine, I brought a space full of supplies!

"I wonder if the village chief could help me find out about what I discussed with him last time?" Jiang Chuyue's purpose of visiting today was not just to give money.

"I was just planning to talk to you about this." Shen Rong sighed, "I have discussed this with the village chiefs of several nearby villages, and no one wants to do this business. They say that growing herbs is not as good as growing food. If you grow food, you can at least have something to eat, but if you grow herbs, who knows if you will be able to harvest them tomorrow."

Jiang Chuyue had already anticipated that they would not trust her.

"I wonder if the village chief could arrange for me to meet with them. If persuasion fails, then forget it." Jiang Chuyue still didn't want to give up. If it could make the lives of the nearby villagers better, Jiang Chuyue was willing to put in more effort.

However, the most important matter now is to meet the owner of Lingge in Zuixiangju after the New Year, so even if he wants to meet the village chiefs of other villages, he has to arrange it later.

"Okay, I'll go there again in the next two days to discuss it with them." Shen Rong responded readily.

"Let's arrange it a few days after the New Year."

Shen Rong did not question Jiang Chuyue's schedule. "Of course it depends on when it is convenient for you."

Shen Rong was a man who knew the times very well. Seeing that Jiang Chuyue's voice in Wanshan Village was getting bigger and bigger, he was willing to bow his head. Jiang Chuyue never treated him unfairly. Although she asked him to help with things, she never gave him less benefits.

It is precisely for this reason that Shen Rong feels more at ease doing things for Jiang Chuyue.

After all, when the price of grain is comparable to that of gold, the benefits and grain obtained are more important than one's own face. Not to mention that although Jiang Chuyue often instructed Shen Rong on some matters, she never acted bossy but discussed matters with him in a nice tone, which saved the face of Shen Rong as the village chief.

Jiang Chuyue knew Shen Rong's little thoughts, but she didn't care. As long as Shen Rong obeyed her orders, it was enough.

As for the few people in the Shen family who have different ideas, they can be left to Shen Rong to check and balance.

"Aren't you worried that those few Shen families who refuse to give in are actually doing it on purpose by Shen Rong?" Xiao Yihao imitated Jiang Chuyue and sat cross-legged on the ground in the space.

"So what if it is true?" Jiang Chuyue didn't care whether Shen Rong had plotted against her. Anyway, she had enough food to make Shen Rong obey her.

In this world, it is not that interests do not move people's hearts. If people's hearts are not moved, it is simply that the interests are not big enough.

Jiang Chuyue, who has seen too much human nature, sees it more clearly than anyone else. Precisely because she sees it clearly, she allows Shen Rong to use tricks and schemes under her nose.

Because she has the ability and means to suppress Shen Rong.

"You seem a little different from the you I know." From Jiang Chuyue's previous methods against the second house, Xiao Yihao thought that Jiang Chuyue was a person who could not tolerate any sand in her eyes. However, when it came to the checks and balances with the Shen family, she showed a completely different way of dealing with things.

"People are multifaceted. It's never one thing and two things are two." Jiang Chuyue smiled. "You hid so many things from me in the past, and I never asked about them. I even took the initiative to confess my secrets."

At any time, Jiang Chuyue never forgets to gain favor in front of Xiao Yihao.

The space fell silent. Jiang Chuyue didn't know what Xiao Yihao was thinking, so she simply didn't want to think about it. She was exhausted by all kinds of messy things during this period of time.

Wu Gang’s injury, Xiao Yihao’s leg, the cultivation of medicinal herbs in the village, and the meeting at Zui Xiang Ju, many things were weighing on Jiang Chuyue’s mind.

Now that she finally had the chance to stroll around Wanshan Village, Jiang Chuyue seized this rare opportunity to relax and headed leisurely towards home.

Before she even stepped into the house, Jiang Chuyue smelled something wrong and gradually slowed down her pace. It was not until she saw He Hua in white clothes in the yard that she knew what was going on.

"Chu Yue is here." He Hua caught a glimpse of Jiang Chu Yue's figure and hurried out to greet her.

Seeing He Hua's tear-stained face and red eyes, Jiang Chuyue felt a headache, "Second Aunt, what happened?"

Knowing that Xiao Li was in trouble, Jiang Chuyue still had to pretend to be ignorant.

Liu Cui on the side glared at Jiang Chuyue with hatred, "Your second uncle is dead, as a junior, shouldn't you show some appreciation?"

Liu Cui wanted benefits right away, and her straightforwardness made He Hua's face look even worse.

"Chu Yue, don't think too much. Your grandma was so sad because your second uncle passed away that she said something without thinking." He Hua hurried to smooth things over.

"I know. After all, it's really pitiful for an old person to send off a young person." Jiang Chuyue's words were so blunt that He Hua didn't know how to respond for a moment.

I could only chuckle twice and try to get away with it.

Unexpectedly, Liu Cui exploded after hearing this, "Jiang Chuyue, if it weren't for you, how could your uncle be dragged away by a wolf? How could he have gotten into trouble?"

"Oh?" Jiang Chuyue raised the corner of her mouth, crossed her arms and looked at Liu Cui coldly, "I don't know why grandma thinks that my second uncle's accident has something to do with me?"

It took He Hua several days of persuading Liu Cui about Xiao Li's death before she could reluctantly accept the fact. When a person dies, a funeral must be held. In order to search for Xiao Li's body, He Hua asked the villagers of Wanshan Village to search in the woods. As expected, they found a body that had been eaten to the point of only a skeleton left.

Nearly half of the people in Wanshan Village were mobilized for this, and now those who helped are still watching. Liu Cui immediately blamed Jiang Chuyue for Xiao Li's death.

If the fact that Xiao Li wanted to kill Jiang Chuyue was really exposed, the second branch would have no chance of survival in Wanshan Village in the future.

"Mom." He Hua was so scared that her face turned pale. She hugged the emotional Liu Cui and explained to Jiang Chuyue, "Chuyue, your grandma is just too sad. Now she suspects that anyone who offends her is the one who harmed your second uncle."

Jiang Chuyue looked at He Hua for a long time, and watched her beg Aunt Wang and others for help, and reluctantly sent Liu Cui away.

"I'm here today to ask you to attend your second uncle's funeral for the sake of us being a family." He Hua knew that she couldn't fall out with Jiang Chuyue now.

Jiang Chuyue was silent for a long time, so silent that He Hua felt uneasy, fearing that Jiang Chuyue would refuse her as soon as she opened her mouth. Then Jiang Chuyue finally spoke.

"When will the funeral be held?"

"The day after tomorrow." He Hua quickly replied, fearing that Jiang Chuyue would refuse. "When the time comes, just bring the children to visit your uncle. I will take care of the rest."

After saying that, He Hua didn't dare to stay for long and left in a hurry.

Jiang Chuyue and the villagers in the yard were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
