I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.

"No! Impossible!" Chen pushed through the crowd and rushed over, clutching Wang Bo's sleeve tightly. Her eyes were red and tears rolled down her cheeks. "You're lying! My Ah Zheng won't die. He's not dead, right?"

Wang Bo recognized Chen and placed his hand on her shoulder, saying sadly, "Auntie, please accept my condolences. Brother Zheng is truly dead..."

Chen stared at Wang Bo blankly, and suddenly, her body went limp and she fell to the ground.

"Old woman!" Old man Lu's voice came from behind the crowd.

Jiang Qinyu took a quick step forward and grabbed half of Chen's body, while Wang Bo also grabbed the other side of her.

Only then did Jiang Qinyu look at the eldest son of Wang Pozi's family, who was said to be very capable, and asked calmly, "Did you see Lu Yanzheng die with your own eyes?"

At this time, Old Man Lu also squeezed to the front. As he took Chen over, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Bo Wazi, is my Ah Zheng really gone?"

Wang Bo looked at the Lu family with sympathy. "Yes, I saw with my own eyes that he was stabbed through the body by the Dayuan soldiers with long swords, but I was in danger at the time and had no time to save him..."

At this point, Wang Bo sniffed, his voice choked, "We suffered heavy losses in that battle, and many brothers died, including Brother Zheng."

"Where is his body? Did you find it when you were cleaning up the battlefield?" Jiang Qinyu continued to ask.

Wang Bo nodded. "It was very hot at the time, and the brothers who died on the battlefield were burned. I personally put Brother Zheng on the pile of wood."

As soon as these words came out, Old Man Lu's body shook a little, but he finally stood still.

Jiang Qinyu pursed her lips and was silent for a moment, then nodded to Wang Bo, "Thank you for telling us about Brother Zheng. We'll go back first."

She and Old Man Lu each supported one side of Chen as they walked home, and both of their steps were extremely heavy.

Old Man Lu's steps were heavy because he had confirmed the news that his eldest son was dead, but Jiang Qinyu's steps were heavy because she learned that the war in this world was so close to her.

There will be casualties in every war. Will the war spread to Dingshui Village?

If the royal family of Dai Viet does nothing, it will probably happen, right?

After all, Yongshan County is only more than 200 miles away from the border. Once the border army is defeated, the first stop of the Dayuan army will be Yongshan County.

My thoughts stopped here, and we arrived at the Lu family.

Old Man Lu and Chen now have their own small courtyard. Jiang Qinyu helped Chen back and put her on the bed.

When she came out of the house, Old Man Lu called her.

"Yu girl, it's our Lu family that has let you down. A Zheng is gone, and you..." Old man Lu suddenly covered his face with his hands, buried his head in tears, and couldn't say a word.

Jiang Qinyu was also feeling a little heavy at the moment. Although it wasn't because of Lu Yanzheng, she still tried to comfort him, "Dad, I'm fine. You and Mom shouldn't be too sad. Whether Brother Zheng is here or not, we have to live our lives. I believe that if he were still alive, he would also want to see you and Mom live a happier life."

Old Man Lu didn't say anything, just waved at her, indicating that she should go back first.

Jiang Qinyu knew that no matter what she said, it would be useless, so she went home first.

Shufan and Pan'er were just left at home by Chen, and were now waiting obediently for Jiang Qinyu to come back.

"Aunt is back!"

"Auntie, Pan'er missed you so much, wuwuwu...why did you take so long?"

The two little kids rushed straight towards Jiang Qinyu and held her legs tightly.

It was not until the moment when she was saved by the two little ones that Jiang Qinyu felt a little relieved from the heaviness in her heart.

"Have you two listened to Grandma these days at home? Have you been bullied? Have you bullied others? Have you practiced writing the characters you were told to?"

Jiang Qinyu asked as she led the two of them into the house.

Shu Fan answered every one of her questions obediently, and then the little boy said unhappily, "Next time, if Auntie is going to be away for a long time, can you take us with you? We promise not to cause any trouble!"

"I also want to go with my aunt. Pan'er doesn't want to be separated from my aunt..." The little girl's eyes were red and her mouth was pouting. She looked like she was about to cry again.

Jiang Qinyu quickly said, "Auntie is going to do some serious business. You are still too young, and it will be inconvenient to bring you along."

After saying that, she immediately promised, "But I can promise you that if you can stay at home, then don't go out. When you are older, I will take you with me when I go on a long trip, okay?"

Given the current situation in Yongshan County, she has to find a way to send her two children to school on her own; it is impossible for them to go out to study.

The best way to educate children is through words and deeds, so it is inevitable that she will personally take them to see a different world.

"Aunt, you must keep your word." Shu Fan held her hand tightly and looked at her seriously.

Pan Er also raised her head and said, "Auntie, you can't lie, otherwise you will become a long-nosed person like Xiao Pi in the story you told me!"

"Silly girl, my name is Pinocchio, not Xiaopi." Jiang Qinyu tapped her nose in amusement, "Don't worry, you two. When has your aunt ever lied to you?"

The two of them laughed in relief, but Jiang Qinyu heard their stomachs rumbling and immediately turned around, "Oh my, our two little greedy cats are hungry, I have to go make them something delicious!"

Jiang Qinyu's courtyard was soon filled with laughter, and along with the slowly rising smoke, the aroma of food also spread to the next door.

At Lu Yancai's house, Ma was also cooking.

Lu Tianbao stared longingly at Jiang Qinyu's yard next to him, sniffed hard, and then turned back to Ma with disdain and said, "Mom, when can you make such delicious meals like my aunt's?"

Ma threw the dried pickles in her hand and said, "What are you arguing about? If you want to eat something delicious, can't you go find that damn girl Jiang Qinyu yourself?"

After the family split up, Ma started calling Jiang Qinyu by her full name.

Lu Tianbao's mouth almost pouted to the sky, "Every time I knock on the door, those two wild brats won't open it for me!"

Ultimately, it was his mother's fault. She always told him that everything belonging to his aunt belonged to him. But when his grandparents got angry and divided the property, he realized that what his mother said was all lies.

But it was too late for him to regret now. His aunt and the two wild brats disliked him, so he couldn't take advantage of them.

Humph, don’t think he doesn’t know. The aunt must have secretly bought some delicious cakes for those two as a snack. Their mouths are full of the taste!

"Don't open the door... Hey, now that they're back, we should ask the village chief to bring the things over and divide them among us! If we don't, we won't be able to make ends meet!"

Ma suddenly remembered this, then untied her apron and threw it away, then ran into the house and pulled Lu Yancai up.

"Acai, get up quickly, let's go ask the village chief for something!"
