Jiang Qinyu nodded with a smile, "I just went in to check, and everything in the cellar is fine. They probably didn't find it just now."

No matter how unreasonable it is, as long as the supplies are still there, the villagers will have no reason to doubt it.

"That's great!" Village Chief Li clapped his hands. "No, I have to go and take a look before I can feel at ease."

He ran quickly into the ancestral hall, and the others followed him.

After a while, the sound of people crying with joy could be heard in the ancestral hall.

"Thanks to our ancestors for their protection! We have enough food to eat!"

"Hahaha... God is indeed watching over us. Our cellar is right here, and they didn't even notice it!"

"That's right. Don't you see what the situation is with our village ancestral hall? So many ancestors are here, and they still let those bastards take their things away?"

"That's right..."

Hearing that they all attributed the credit to their ancestors, Jiang Qinyu smiled, shook her head, and then went home.

It was only 4:00 p.m. now, and she had just the right time to take her hoe and go to the fields. She heard that her fields had already been plowed.

Jiang Qinyu armed herself from head to toe, wearing a straw hat, a towel around her neck, tying her cuffs, and putting on leggings.

After taking care of the two children, the aunt and nephew went towards the fields.

Not long after I went out, I saw Li Dachui, Liu Yazi and others coming back and talking to Liu Erleng and Village Chief Li.

Village Chief Li had sharp eyes and spotted Jiang Qinyu immediately. He waved at her and called out, "Niece, come here."

"What's up, Uncle Village Chief?" Jiang Qinyu went over and greeted Liu Erleng, Li Dachui and the others.

Village Chief Li said, "We've just discussed this. To be on the safe side, not only must our village strengthen its security, but we must also quickly move the ancestral hall's supplies to the mountains."

"Go to the mountains?" Jiang Qinyu blinked. "Isn't that even more unsafe?"

There are animals in the mountains. Even if there are people guarding them, it's not safe. What if a big one comes? They can't send too many people to guard them, right?

Village Chief Li said with a frown, "If we don't move away, what if those officials come again?"

I may have the blessing of my ancestors this time, but I may not be sure about it next time!

Jiang Qinyu laughed, "Uncle, I think it's best for us to not do anything right now."

"Why?" Village Chief Li looked at her in confusion.

Jiang Qinyu looked towards the village entrance. "The police haven't found any food in our village. They might not give up in the short term. If we rush to move our supplies to the mountains now, what if they run into us..."

No need to say more, everyone understands the truth.

"What you said makes sense, but what if they come again?" Liu Erleng looked at Jiang Qinyu worriedly.

Jiang Qinyu curled her lips, "If they come again, we will beat them back!"

"Ah? Beat the police?" Li Dachui's eyes almost popped out when he heard this.

Village Chief Li and Liu Erleng also stared at Jiang Qinyu blankly, unable to react for a moment.

Jiang Qinyu looked at them seriously and said, "We've already let them search the village once, even the ancestral hall. If they come back in a short time, it would be disrespectful to all our ancestors. As their support, it's only natural for us to protect them. They have no right in any case!"

"That's right!" Village Chief Li's eyes lit up when he heard this. "My niece is right. We've already suffered a lot this time. If they come again before the next harvest, we won't be afraid of them. If they dare to search the ancestral hall again, we will fight them back!"

"Yes! If they come again, we will beat them back!" Liu Erlang's blood boiled and he shouted, waving his hands.

Seeing that they understood, Jiang Qinyu said to Village Chief Li, "Uncle, I'll go take a look at the fields and talk to you later."

"Okay, okay, you go and get busy first. Your land is ready. You can decide when to plant the seeds. I'll ask the villagers to help." Village chief Li said to her with a smile.

Jiang Qinyu quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Uncle Village Chief. I won't be polite to you all now."

"Why are you being polite? We are a collective now, and we should do these things together." Village chief Li waved his hand.

Jiang Qinyu said no more and walked away with the two children.

Arriving at the field, before Jiang Qinyu could even see what was going on, Shu Fan pulled her aside and asked, "Aunt, can we really beat the officials?"

Jiang Qinyu looked at him in surprise when she heard this, "Why do you ask that?"

Is a six-year-old already thinking about such questions? Is he too mature?

"I heard from the villagers that the people should not fight with the officials. If we hit the officials, will the consequences be serious?" Shu Fan looked at her seriously.

Jiang Qinyu thought about it and didn't try to fool him just because he was young. Instead, she said seriously, "Many times, it's wrong for us to hit people, but there is still a word 'right' in this world. As long as we are right, we won't be held accountable even if we hit someone."

Shu Fan nodded, not quite understanding, his little face full of thought.

Jiang Qinyu touched his head and said, "You'll know how to distinguish when you grow up. Now, let's see what we can grow on our land!"

When this was mentioned, both children became happy.

Pan'er clapped her hands and said, "As long as there's food in the fields, we won't starve!"

"Don't worry, auntie will never let you go hungry again." Jiang Qinyu looked at them with a smile.

The high-yield grain seeds purchased by the system came with instructions. Take wheat for example, the yield per mu of this high-yield wheat was between 800 and 1,000 kilograms, which was higher than the data she had seen in modern times.

However, in such a drought year, it is obviously not suitable for growing rice, so Jiang Qinyu plans to grow wheat first.

She walked around the field and found that the villagers must have put a lot of effort into turning and plowing the land, and they could even make ridges and ditches on the land.

The Lu family had a total of twenty acres of land. Old Man Lu and Mrs. Chen divided the land into three parts, and gave Jiang Qinyu seven acres of land, three acres of high-quality land, and four acres of medium-quality land.

Lu Yancai's family also has seven acres, but they only have two acres of high-quality land and two acres of low-quality land.

All the lands in the hands of Old Man Lu and Mrs. Chen are of the best quality.

This division method had caused Ma to make a fuss at the beginning, but unfortunately, since almost everything the Lu family had was earned by Lu Yanzheng back then, it was useless for her to make a fuss.

Jiang Qinyu had no complaints about this. After all, she was not the original owner, and strictly speaking, the original owner and Lu Yanzheng were not actually husband and wife. It was already very good to be able to share other people's property, and she had no choice at all.

Now she only has one kilogram of high-yield wheat seeds, which is not enough to plant an acre of land. She has to buy some more from the system mall.

Moreover, she cannot be the only one to grow high-yield crops in her family. Other people in the village must also grow them, otherwise it will be difficult to explain in the future.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qinyu bought another ninety-nine high-yield grain seed gift packs from the system mall.

Jiang Qinyu had a question mark face. Is this okay?
