The fat wife is rebellious: she was spoiled by the group on the way to escape famine

After learning the true situation of the whole incident, the village chief was extremely happy and immediately wanted to call the villagers to start digging.

However, Jiang Jing once again stopped his impulsive behavior.

"Village chief, I just guess that there is something wrong with the stream water."

Facing this experienced but slightly anxious elder, Jiang Jinhe offered his own opinion and said earnestly, "I think it's best if this matter is kept between the two of us. We can investigate thoroughly before reporting it. If anything goes wrong, we'll have a way out. What do you think?"

Even the experienced village chief quickly realized the importance of this situation and immediately nodded in agreement with this cautious approach.

"Don't worry, Third Lady, I understand this."

He promised solemnly.

Watching the village chief hurriedly leave, Jiang Jinhe finally let go of the burden in his heart, breathed a long sigh of relief, and relaxed completely.

In the following days, just as she expected, the villagers really began to get busy according to the plan, digging new wells near their homes or next to their farmlands.

It happened that a heavy snow had just ended and the weather was warming up for a rare period of time.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, people worked hard and soon successfully completed the digging of a well.

Despite this, there were still some unsatisfactory aspects when choosing the location - this well, which was dug with great difficulty, was placed relatively close to the village committee office.

As a result, although the well has been dug, it is still a considerable problem for most villagers who are accustomed to taking water directly from the river for daily drinking and crop irrigation. Many people continue to choose to ignore the newly dug well and go to the river to fetch buckets of water for their household use as usual.

Jiang Jinhe did not give much explanation for this.

On the one hand, now is not the time to reveal the secret; on the other hand, drinking the water from the river occasionally will not have much effect on the human body, and only drinking it for a long time will harm health.

The main reason she did this was because she planned to farm locally and hoped to lead the villagers to become rich together.

If you don’t prepare in advance, you will definitely have a lot of trouble in the future!

If her plan in Xiushui'an was known to the Zhang family in the county, they might use this to make trouble and deal with the Fang family's big restaurant.

For example, spreading rumors that Xiushui'an is a cursed place and that people and things there will be implicated.

These are totally unfounded words, yet some people believe them so much.

If something really happens, the situation will be ugly!

But now with this well as a backup, even if someone gossips about it in the future, she can point out the problems of the stream with confidence.

Maybe you can even avoid danger and make a lot of money.

Just as she expected, the Zhang family had already started to take action against the other party.

In just a few days, a battle for beans broke out in Yuefeng County.

Just as Fang Ye was counting the money proudly, the Zhang family had already begun a full-scale counterattack.

They first did everything they could to frantically buy up all the beans in the market, and even snatched away the order that originally belonged to Fang Ye at a high price.

Of course, this news has not yet reached Jiang Jinhe's ears. She is still busy preparing to visit Mrs. Zhang.

The weather was particularly good that day, with bright sunshine and a gentle breeze, so Jiang Jinhe went to Mrs. Zhang's house with a basket of exquisite snacks specially prepared by the Fang family.

As soon as I walked in, I felt the host's great enthusiasm and hospitality.

Although the so-called "treat" was just a cup of freshly boiled hot water, Jiang Jinhe was very moved and satisfied by Mrs. Zhang's sincere attitude.

Hot water is simple, but at this moment, it seems so heartwarming.

Although she came with the purpose of finding out about Li Yue's family background, it was not convenient for her to speak too directly.

Under such circumstances, the two began to chat.

From talking about the weather to interesting things in the neighborhood to their respective families, the distance between them seemed to have shortened a lot.

In such a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, time passed by unknowingly.

At such an opportune moment, the conversation slowly turned to Li Yue.

The change in Mrs. Zhang's expression when she mentioned this name indicated that the chat was about to enter a completely new direction.

As expected, when Li Yue's name was mentioned, Mrs. Zhang immediately started complaining non-stop, and then the topic naturally turned to Li Yue's family situation.

"You probably don't understand the details yet. Do you know? The Li family, mother and daughter, have a particularly bad reputation. Especially her fourth sister, who is already in her twenties and has yet to marry. There must be something hidden behind this!"

As Mrs. Zhang's voice gradually rose, the disdain in her tone became more and more obvious.

"The old lady in this family has a very bad reputation. Everyone in the village knows it. Her daughters are not good people either."

Mrs. Zhang continued, her face full of disdain.

"Who in our area would dare to marry the daughter of the Li family from Moon Village? Unless there's really no other choice... like if you're alone..."

Just as she was getting excited, Mrs. Zhang suddenly realized that she had gone too far. Her tone suddenly changed, becoming a little embarrassed. "Oh, I'm not talking about your Song Mucheng."

Apparently she felt her words had touched some sensitive areas, so she quickly tried to smooth things over.

However, Jiang Jinhe didn't care whether she mentioned Song Mucheng or not. At this moment, she was only thinking about how to understand the truth behind it all more clearly.

Faced with the other party's sudden ending, she chose to respond lightly, smiled, and said comfortingly, "Aunt Zhang is right, Song Mucheng is really confused. I heard from my mother that many girls liked him at the time, but he chose to marry Li Yu. I really don't know what he was thinking."

"Until now, we still don't understand his decision."

There was a hint of helplessness and confusion in Jiang Jinhe's words, as if he was looking for an answer and also to end this awkward conversation.

As he spoke, Jiang Jinhe sighed deliberately, pretending to be in an awkward position.

Her brows were slightly furrowed, and her eyes showed a hint of helplessness, as if the burden she was carrying made her feel unprecedented pressure.

"Aunt Zhang, you don't know how difficult it is for me to be the head of the family right now."

She said slowly, her tone full of bitterness.

She felt like a piece of thin paper sandwiched between her family and her mother, which would be torn in two if she was not careful.

"My mother feels sorry for Song Mucheng and the two children, but I have to kick Li Yue out."

She continued, a hint of weakness in her voice.

She knew that doing so would make her mother sad, but for the sake of the harmony of the whole family, she had to make this difficult decision.
