The series of farces caused by Wang Pozi's proposal of marriage finally came to an end, and Jiang Qinyu also took this opportunity to express her attitude of not marrying again.

That night, Chen and Old Man Lu were in the house.

"See, I told you that girl was stubborn, but you insisted on testing her. Why don't you just give her the things now?" Old Man Lu said to Chen as he tidied himself up and went to bed.

Chen was sewing shoe soles, and she no longer had the heartbroken look she had just had at Jiang Qinyu's house. "I know she's a good person, but there's no rush. Let's wait and see, at least until after the New Year."

"You, after all, still don't believe her. I think that girl always keeps her word. It won't affect her even if she gets married in the future." Old Man Lu shook his head and lay down.

Chen paused for a moment, continued sewing the soles of the shoes, and said nothing more.

On Jiang Qinyu's side, after the aunt and niece took a bath and lay down, she formally told the two children that she would never abandon them.

"Although you are not my biological children, I was raised by my eldest brother. You are his flesh and blood left in this world. No matter how difficult it is, I will definitely make sure you grow up safely."

The original body's parents died early. They died when Jiang Da Ge was ten years old and Jiang Qinyu was six years old. After that, Jiang Da Ge raised the brother and sister alone.

The Jiang family has always been a resident of Kaner Town. Jiang's parents left a little inheritance, which was originally enough for the eldest brother Jiang to continue studying until he went to Beijing to take the imperial examination. However, some of the property was seized by his unscrupulous uncles, so that the eldest brother Jiang was only able to obtain the title of scholar and had no extra money to continue taking the imperial examination.

Under such difficult conditions, the eldest brother of the Jiang family did not use his sister in exchange for a high betrothal gift, which shows that he truly loves the original body.

As for why he later told her about Lu Yanzheng's marriage, one reason was because Lu Yanzheng himself was indeed very outstanding, and Brother Jiang felt that he could bring happiness to his sister, and the other reason was that the original body had a good impression of Lu Yanzheng.

"Auntie..." Pan'er hugged Jiang Qinyu's arm, her eyes red.

Shu Fan was quite mature and knew what Jiang Qinyu meant. He also said with red eyes: "But aunt, we also hope that you can have someone to rely on."

Jiang Qinyu tapped his nose. "You little brat, do you still want your aunt to get married? Where can you find support in this world? Everyone wants to find a safe haven, but who will be the safe haven? It's better to rely on yourself than on others, don't you understand?"

Shu Fan was a little confused and asked tentatively, "Is it like Erniu's father in the village? His father often beats his mother. Every time I see his mother with a bruised face, I feel that Erniu's father is not his mother's support."

"That's right, so you two don't even think about getting me married. If I meet someone like Erniu's father, I might as well not get married!" Jiang Qinyu quickly brainwashed the two of them.

Pan'er nodded, not quite understanding, "I see. Auntie once said that some people will lie to you. They are nice before marriage, but they will hit you after marriage, but by then it's too late."

Although she didn't know why it was too late after getting married, the adults all said so.

Jiang Qinyu touched her head and said, "Yes, so Auntie will not only be your support, but also my support. The three of us will always be together."

"When I grow up, I will be my aunt's safe haven!" Shu Fan said, clenching his fists.

Pan'er also quickly expressed her opinion, "Me too! When I grow up, I want to be my aunt's support and let her rely on me for the rest of her life!"

Jiang Qinyu found the two little cuties' anxious looks so adorable that she gave them a kiss and then continued telling the story.

"Today we're going to talk about the Three Strike-Outs against the White Bone Demon..."

After three days of hard work, Jiang Qinyu finally prepared the explosives she planned to use.

Village chief Li brought people to the door early in the morning to help transport the explosives to the designated location.

Jiang Qinyu warned: "Be careful, don't fall to the ground, don't hit it hard, and don't get close to fire..."

Just as she finished giving her instructions, she saw Wang Bo coming.

He greeted everyone one by one as if nothing had happened, and only called out Jiang Qinyu last.

Fortunately, Wang Bo spoke normally today and no longer spoke to her in a lisp, otherwise Jiang Qinyu really didn't know if she could hold it in.

"Mrs. Lu, I have seen thunder bombs in the army before. They are similar to the explosives you made. But I don't know how powerful the explosives are. Is it the same as thunder bombs?" Wang Bo asked curiously.

Jiang Qinyu didn't want to answer him, but Village Chief Li and the others were willing to do it for her and told Wang Bo about the last hunting trip again.

Wang Bo actually just wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Jiang Qinyu. After all, they had already talked about the power of explosives once before.

He had thought a lot in the past two days and felt that the villagers had exaggerated before. The thunder bomb thrown down would at most only make a shallow pit on the ground. Jiang Qinyu was a woman, so how powerful could the explosives she made be?

But being able to make something as powerful as Thunderball is also amazing.

Jiang Qinyu was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Dai Viet was already using gunpowder. But this was also normal. The imperial court was not stupid. How could they leave such powerful things unused? It was just that they might not have found the right way yet.

But these have nothing to do with her. What she is most anxious about right now is to get the water out of the underground river.

The group came to the hillside on the side of the ditch weir. This time, instead of going to the bottom of the mountain first, Jiang Qinyu decided to start directional blasting from the outside.

Use a gradual, segmented approach, blasting and clearing one section at a time to prevent landslides and the like.

Jiang Qinyu had identified ten blasting points at a distance of more than 100 meters. Except for the two points outside where no holes needed to be drilled, the other eight required holes to be drilled from top to bottom or from the side to place the explosives.

"There are five people in our village who can dig wells. Let them do it. They can finish digging wells this morning." Village chief Li said immediately after hearing this.

Li Dachui was one of the people who knew how to dig a well. Hearing this, he assured her, "Don't worry, wife of Zheng. We are familiar with this matter and will definitely get it done for you as soon as possible."

"Okay, thank you all for your hard work. After you have dug the hole, I will see if it is suitable for blasting." Jiang Qinyu nodded.

For unsuitable places, we have to use the segmented method to dig tunnels. In short, if we are not lucky, this may take several days.

"Then I'll go call people to come here and continue repairing the canal. Once the water is diverted, it can be sent directly to the fields." After saying this, Village Chief Li hurried away.

Wang Bo had been paying attention to Jiang Qinyu. Seeing that she was concentrating on observing the situation around her and talking with Li Dachui and the others, he felt a little shaken.

Maybe the explosives she made weren't very powerful? He wouldn't want a woman who couldn't help him.

In the afternoon, Li Dachui and his team had drilled all the holes that needed to be drilled.

After Jiang Qinyu made her judgment, she felt that they could all be blasted simultaneously, so she placed explosives in all ten holes, connected the fuses, and had someone ignite them.

Wang Bo, Jiang Qinyu and others stood on a distant hillside, watching the person in charge of lighting the fire and running away.

After a few breaths, a series of loud noises were heard.

Wang Bo only felt a slight vibration on the ground beneath his feet, and the mountain opposite seemed to shake for a moment, and then calmed down.

Jiang Qinyu clapped her hands and said with a smile, "It's done!"
