Despite what Song Wenqin said, Jiang Jinhe was still worried about his health, secretly increased his food intake, and occasionally prepared a special meal for him, adding some supplements.

When the body is strong, the toxicity will naturally progress slowly.

Song Wenqin noticed Jiang Jinhe's special care for him, and when Song Yuyu and Xiaolan winked at each other, he pretended to be unaware.

But in my heart, it still feels different.

He developed some strange feelings for Jiang Jinhe.

It was hard to describe, but Song Wenqin did not resist.

That day, Jiang Jinhe asked Song Wenqin to accompany her up the mountain on the pretext of looking for food.

Jiang Jinhe collected a lot of herbs according to medical records.

She would not let go of anything that was useful.

Take precautions before they happen.

The experience of having difficulty buying medicine in Huizhou left a deep impression on her.

So much so that seeing medicinal herbs nowadays is like picking up treasures.

The two of them walked and talked.

Jiang Jinhe tried to ask about his background and recent situation.

But Song Wenqin cleverly avoided the topic.

Jiang Jinhe had no choice but to discuss the current situation.

After all, Song Wenqin has a special identity and may be able to obtain some inside information.

After all, the court situation concerns their life and death.

Song Wenqin was very clear about this and told everything he knew.

But Jiang Jinhe didn't get any substantial information from his words.

But she did not doubt that Song Wenqin would deceive her.

The conversation was interrupted because Jiang Jinhe discovered another yam field.

They hurried back to call for help, and everyone worked together to dig up all the yams.

Now that there is enough food, Jiang Jinhe organized people to process the yams.

When the sun is shining, it can be sliced ​​and dried, or ground into powder.

But grinding the flour was time-consuming, so they unanimously decided to dry it, distribute it equally, and store it as reserve grain.

There is still a long road ahead and they need to be prepared.

If the food problem can be solved along the way, everyone will feel relieved.

The burden on Jiang Jinhe's shoulders naturally became a lot lighter.

During this period, everyone lived a relatively comfortable life, had full meals every day, and their bodies were much stronger.

Everyone has become more confident about the future.

Almost all the food available around the village has been collected.

Jiang Jinhe was thinking about taking one last look around the old place and leaving tomorrow.

As luck would have it, something went wrong on this final day.

A few people were left at home to pack their bags, while the others went out with Jiang Jinhe to find food.

This time, they headed straight for the last area they had never visited before.

There are indeed surprises in unexplored places. The group came across a small taro field here.

Following Jiang Jinhe, everyone has learned some tips on how to make a living.

This taro field was discovered by the villagers themselves.

Jiang Jinhe was very happy.

Without saying a word, everyone started digging quickly.

Just when they were digging with great interest, a group of people came from the other side.

Judging from their appearance, they all look strong and muscular, and don't look like they are displaced.

Among them was a man in gorgeous clothes.

In troubled times, wearing neat clothes without patches is enough to show that the person is in a good situation, not to mention silk and satin.

After all, some people gain weight even by drinking water, so body shape is no longer the criterion for judging wealth.

Seeing outsiders approaching, everyone immediately became alert.

The other party obviously noticed them and walked straight towards them.

Jiang Jinhe vaguely heard someone beside the fat man bowing softly:

"Master, those people over there seem to be digging up something delicious."

There was no concealment in his words, and it was obvious that he did not take them seriously.

When everyone heard this, they knew that they were coming to fight for food.

Everyone raised their shovels and hoes, but the other party looked disdainful and even sneered.

The man waved his hand and his followers drew their swords and charged forward.

In a blink of an eye, the small taro field was surrounded by them.

Jiang Jinhe and others subconsciously took a step back.

Seeing the fruits of their labor being snatched away, everyone was enraged and was about to rush forward, and a conflict was about to break out.

Next to the obese man, a middle-aged man with a goatee spoke arrogantly:

"You lowly people, are you trying to steal food from my master?"

Seeing everyone's dissatisfied expressions, he stroked his beard and said sarcastically:

"You are just a lowly person, your life is superfluous, yet you still dare to covet our things? You really don't know your own limitations!"

This humiliation made everyone furious, but they were afraid of the knife in the other party's hand and did not dare to act rashly.

No one in the village could say who won.

Everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Jinhe, hoping that she could help them out.

Jiang Jinhe was also dissatisfied with the other party's arrogance, so he stepped forward and argued:

"Sir, we found the land first, and we've almost finished digging it. If you're talking about robbing us, aren't you the ones robbing us? Why are you trying to turn the tables on us?"

When Jiang Jinhe was speaking, Song Wenqin stood quietly behind her and gave silent support.

The temperament of the two people was particularly eye-catching, causing the man called "Master" to look at them twice more, although he still said he didn't agree.

"This land belongs to whoever has the ability to occupy it."

Jiang Jinhe felt mixed emotions when he heard this, but he had no way to refute it.

This place had no owner to begin with, and when a dispute arose between the two sides, naturally whoever had the stronger fist would have the final say.

Their side is full of unarmed civilians, how can they withstand the other side's well-trained and fully armed guards?

For the sake of everyone's safety, Jiang Jinhe gritted his teeth and led everyone to retreat. Going head-on with them for a little food would only end up hurting his own people, which was not worth it.

"Hey, Jiang family, why are you so spineless? We were the ones who found it first, so why should we give in just as they come?"

"Yeah, it's so frustrating to find something with so much trouble, but it's taken away in the blink of an eye!"

Many people in Ayuan Village were indignant about this and there were constant complaints in the queue.

Jiang Jinhe forced a bitter smile. It was indeed aggrieved, but there was nothing she could do about it.

After the group walked far away and completely left that group behind, Jiang Jinhe stopped and said to everyone:

"I know you're all very unhappy about what just happened, but think about it carefully. If we had clashed with them over that little bit of food, resulting in countless casualties, even if we finally got the food back, or had to find another way out in disgrace like we are now, which would you choose?"

Everyone looked at each other and said nothing.

Jiang Jinhe quietly rolled her eyes while no one was paying attention, feeling helpless.

After the team calmed down, they searched the area again, but found nothing, so they had to return and make other plans.

Unexpectedly, I met that group of people again on my way back.

The village, which is neither big nor small, accommodates two groups of people.

Because Jiang Jinhe and his group arrived first and occupied the houses in the village that were slightly better off, the group of later arrivals could only live in dilapidated houses that didn't even have a complete roof.

When Jiang Jinhe saw this scene, he felt something was wrong.

This group of people are definitely not good people and will definitely cause trouble again.

As expected, when it was getting dark, the man with a goatee came towards them with several knife-wielding men, obviously targeting Jiang Jinhe, the leader.
