"How could that be? We have so many capable people in the Chu Kingdom. They are lucky to burn down one granary. How could they burn down several?"

More and more people gathered and everyone was talking about it.

"This is not something we should be concerned about. What we need to do now is to protect ourselves."

The old patriarch knocked his cane a few times and made the final decision, "Every household must buy enough food to harvest next autumn! Don't be petty and reluctant to spend those copper coins! In front of life, copper coins are nothing? You——"

The old patriarch pointed at a few misers in the crowd with his cane, "Especially you guys! Don't cry poor and borrow from one house and another! I'm telling you, if you don't prepare your own food, you deserve to starve to death!"

The old patriarch's words were harsh, but very reasonable.

There is no order without rules. If we start a precedent of borrowing grain, and you come to borrow some today, and he comes to borrow some tomorrow, then the soft-skinned people deserve to be unlucky, right?

and……

The old patriarch looked towards the mountains.

If a war really breaks out, life will be difficult!

Yunli sat aside, making the sound of crunching non-stop and with melon seeds in his mouth all the time.

Not to mention, these melon seeds are delicious and lively.

The old ladies in this village are especially interesting. They never stop talking even when they are discussing these "family and national affairs".

The melon seed shells that keep falling reveal everything.

Yunli doesn't stand out at all among this group of aunts.

"Disperse! Those who need to work should go to work, those who need to buy food should go to buy food! Those who need to chat, continue chatting!"

The old patriarch waved his hand and walked back home tremblingly.

There are many people in the family, so he has to ask his son to buy more food!

There is no time to chat here!

"Girl, your family has bought a lot of food, right? Can you share some with me? I won't take advantage of you. You bought it for ten cents, so I'll charge you eleven cents per pound!"

An aunt came over and patted Yunli on the shoulder, her face full of smiles.

"I'm talking to the big Qian family! You are too shameless! Nowadays, the new rice in the town is already twenty cents a pound, how dare you ask for eleven cents from this little girl?"

Before Yunli could say anything, an aunt next to him said, "Don't listen to her, girl! I'll pay 15 cents per catty, can you spare me 200 catties of food? I don't have many people in my family, so 150 catties will do."

"I might as well give you my yard as well!"

Yunli had a smile on his face, but his words were like a knife, "How dare you be so shameless? I don't even have enough food for myself, so why would I give it to you? You might as well just come and rob it. You don't have to pay for it, and you don't have to ask me. I think you don't have to eat these melon seeds. It's unlucky!"

As Yunli spoke, he snatched the melon seeds from the two aunts and stuffed them into the hands of the third aunt. "This aunt is still the best. She is not as shameless as you two! Aunt, you won't learn from them and try to snatch the life-saving food from me, right?"

The other aunts laughed, "You knew this girl was a bad-tempered person, but you still insisted on provoking her. Now you've lost all your melon seeds!"

The aunt whose melon seeds were snatched away had a burning face and said angrily, "I was just joking! How could I really snatch food from a little kid like her? The girl is too impatient."

"Well, it's still my fault!" Yunli watched the excitement and had almost finished eating the melon seeds. Her lips were dry, so she simply poured the few melon seeds left in her bag into the arms of the aunt who spoke to her, "I'm not annoying, I'm leaving now!"

The aunts were all smiling when they got the melon seeds, not caring about her harsh words. "It's really hot today, you are a little kid and you can't stand it. Go home and wash your face to cool down!"

This girl is really amazing. She slaps someone in the face and then stuffs a sweet date into his mouth.

Don't mess with me.

Yunli didn't go home. Since it was only around 9 o'clock and the sun was not at its hottest, she planned to bask in the sun to get used to it.

When the temperature exceeds 42 degrees, she will go back.

Before she knew it, she had reached the river.

From time to time, fish jump up on the river surface, creating waves.

Yunli's eyes lit up instantly.

When she was watching short videos in the past, she saw many bloggers who could catch a bunch of fish by just using a net to scoop through the water plants. Is that true?

Just as she was about to try it, she detected the smell of tea from afar.

When I turned around, I saw Yunhu's beautiful figure.

The eleven-year-old girl had a hanging bun, but with some slight changes. She took two strands of hair from the middle on both sides as small buns, and let the rest of her hair hang down naturally. She then inserted two small flowers on the top of the two buns, which made her look fresh and beautiful.

It just should be quite hot.

Yunli felt the itchiness on the back of her neck.

Yunhu walked towards her with a clear goal.

Before she even got close, Yunli took the initiative to attack, "Niece, you are dressed so hot, won't you get a heat rash on the back of your neck?"

……

"You look so beautiful today. I like you. Can you do a somersault? Show me two more somersaults. I'll applaud you."

What the hell is a somersault!

Isn't this person sick?

Yunhu was speechless.

Is she planning to have sex with this cheap aunt?

I'm not here to make her happy!

Fault!

"Aunt, do you have any problem with me?" Yun Hu quickly adjusted his composure and was about to cry.

"Yes, I have a big problem with it. You are so smart. You actually figured it out! Are you here to apologize?"

……

This person doesn't play by the rules at all!

Yunhu Ninja.

"If Aunt thinks I did something wrong, I can change it."

"It's not good for you to live and waste air."

"My little aunt really loves to joke."

"I'm not joking, I'm serious. Niece, do you need my help?" Yunli smiled with his sharp teeth showing.

While they were talking at cross purposes, footsteps were heard not far behind them.

Yun Hu's face turned pale and she was about to cry: "Aunt, as long as you are happy, you can scold me however you want. But, can you please not force me to give up Brother Yuan. You like him too, I can compete with you fairly, really! Only when Brother Yuan tells me in person that he likes you, I will be willing to let go."

It seems that the person walking behind me is the blind scholar.

Yunli also got excited, "Great! Last month, the person you loved the most was still me, but this month it has become your brother Yuan! And you still want me to let go? What, you want to abandon me after you got me? No way!"

"Huh?" Yunhu was almost going crazy!

No, what's wrong with this woman?

Who loves her!

"Aunt, you can't get the love you want from Brother Yuan, so you turn love into hatred and want to ruin my reputation? I, I can understand..." Yun Hu said while crying like rain.
