When it comes to the disaster relief efforts in Qingyang County, everyone has an understanding look on their face. However, none of them know that the reason Qingyang County was able to receive rice relief was entirely due to Zhou Wu.

When Li Er's father heard that Zhou Wu was going to treat the whole village to a meal, he tried to dissuade him for a long time, but when he couldn't persuade him, he also took the initiative to ask the village chief for help in making the arrangements.

They built stoves and set up pots; ten large pots were placed at Li Er's door, and white rice was poured into them with a gurgling sound.

"So much rice, are you going to cook white rice?"

"My goodness, I've never eaten white rice before."

Then, a large, fat pig that had already been slaughtered and a lot of sea fish were unloaded from the carriage.

"Oh my god! There's meat too."

"That's a fish? My goodness, such a big fish?"

The fish were sea fish that Zhou Wu brought from his hometown, so they were naturally much larger than freshwater fish. The villagers were all surprised to see such a big fish for the first time.

I thought I'd be lucky to get a bowl of plain rice porridge, but seeing this feast with meat, fish, and rice immediately ignited everyone's enthusiasm.

"Second Uncle, congratulations on finding such a wonderful son-in-law."

"Second brother, your family has finally made a fortune."

"Auntie, your Bai Wei is really something."

The extended family—aunts, uncles, nephews, and cousins—were all gathered around Li Er's family, their eyes filled with envy.

Ordinary people don't have many fuss about their meals. They just eat plain white rice, then stew some meat and fish. With meat and soup, and then soaking the rice in it, it's more delicious than anything else.

"I can't resist, it smells so good."

"I remember a few years ago, when the wealthy Zhang in the county got married, there was hardly any meat or fish."

"Are you kidding me? That stingy old man Zhang only takes in money and never gives it out. What good dishes could he possibly have?"

The air was filled with the aroma of rice and stewed meat, making one's stomach rumble.

"Dinner's ready~~~~~"

Everyone grabbed their own bowls and crowded around. If the village chief hadn't been there to maintain order, the pots would probably have been taken away.

There were about a hundred people, each holding a large bowl, squatting in a corner against the wall. All that could be heard was the rustling sound of people putting food into their mouths.

"How much will this cost you?"

Seeing his son-in-law being so generous in treating the whole village to a meal, Li Er naturally felt very proud, but he also felt bad that his son-in-law had spent too much money.

“Father-in-law, don’t worry. Now that we’re back, I’m thinking of tearing down this old house and building a new one.”

"Build a courtyard? How can that be allowed?"

"It's alright. Bai Wei is my wife now, so you two are naturally my family too. We're all family, so there's no need for formalities."

Since Zhou Wu had said this, Li Er naturally stopped talking, but he was overjoyed and extremely satisfied with his son-in-law.

"Father-in-law, what is the main source of income in our village? It seems like everyone is not doing very well."

The saying goes, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." Zhou Wu would naturally take care of his father-in-law, but he also wanted to lend a hand to these fellow villagers, since his father-in-law would still be living in the village in the future, and he didn't want them to be envious.

"Our village mainly relies on farming for a living."

"Isn't there any other way to make a living?"

Farming? The people of the Great Dragon Empire all rely on farming for a living, but it is difficult to get rich by farming alone.

“There are mushrooms on the mountain during our rainy season.”

The eldest brother thought of the mushrooms on the mountain, and wondered if it could be considered a business, so he brought it up.

"You brat, why are you interrupting when adults are talking?"

Seeing his eldest son interrupt, Li Er, fearing he might displease Zhou Wu, turned and scolded him.

"It's alright, it's alright. Mushrooms? How many?"

"There are plenty, but mushrooms don't keep for long before they spoil."

"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, Bai Wei and I came back specifically to visit relatives, so we will stay here for a while. I will visit when I have the chance."

"Okay, okay, but... where are you all staying?"

The Li family was naturally happy when their daughter and son-in-law returned, but they were too embarrassed to let their son-in-law stay in their dilapidated house.

This question stumped Zhou Wu, who hadn't expected the conditions to be so harsh before he came.

“Lord Zhou, there used to be a wealthy man’s house in Lijia Village. It was a bit small, but it was still usable.”

The advisor, who was standing nearby, quickly seized the opportunity to show off.

"Alright, alright, then I'll do as you say."

"Yes, sir, I'll arrange for someone to clean it up right away."

Upon hearing Zhou Wu assign him a task, the clerk was so excited he almost fainted, and immediately turned around to make the arrangements.

The meal lasted from noon until the afternoon, and the originally quiet Li Family Village became much more lively because of Zhou Wu's arrival.

"Master, the yard has been cleaned."

The clerk respectfully reported from the side.

“Okay, father-in-law and mother-in-law, let’s take this opportunity to move there together, since this old house is going to be demolished anyway.”

"This is not good."

"Father, Mother, go now, we are all family."

Originally, Li Er disagreed, after all, he was just a peasant, while his son-in-law was a high-ranking official, and he was afraid of causing trouble for his daughter. However, he couldn't resist the two people's constant persuasion, so he had no choice but to pack his things and move over together.

The courtyard that the advisor arranged for the house originally belonged to an old wealthy man in the village. A few years ago, for some unknown reason, the whole family moved away. Some people said they had made a fortune and moved to the capital, while others said they had offended a ruthless person and had taken the whole family into hiding. Anyway, there were many different opinions.

Led by the advisor, the whole family arrived at their temporary lodging.

"good."

Zhou Wu glanced at the courtyard; in this dilapidated village, it certainly stood out from the crowd.

The Li family was like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, looking around and touching everything with great curiosity.

“I used to just look from the outside, I never thought that I, Li Er, would one day live here.”

Li Er seemed to recall some past events, and sighed with emotion.

"Dad, don't worry, you'll be able to live in a big house every day from now on."

Li Baiwei stepped forward to comfort him, saying that only he knew his husband's true strength, and that these things were nothing to Zhou Wu.

In the evening, Yang Chun personally cooked an even more exquisite dinner, leaving Li Er's family completely dumbfounded.

"This food doesn't even look this good?"

"Sister, is this food eaten by gods?"

The younger sister's words made Li Baiwei almost lose her composure.

"Little sister, we'll eat these every day from now on, so you can eat your fill."

"Wow, that's great, my sister is so kind."

The whole family sat around the table, and the atmosphere at dinner was warm and harmonious.

Li Baiwei's eyes were full of gratitude for Zhou Wu. If it weren't for this man, her family wouldn't have the life they have now.

"Son-in-law, I'd like to take this opportunity to offer you a toast today, thank you."

“Father-in-law, now that Bai Wei and I are husband and wife, please don’t treat me like an outsider. With me here, we can all live a good life in the future.”

"Mmm, mmm, okay, okay."
