Chapter 95: Making the Situation Worse

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shen Ruyue raised her head. “Brothers, we’ll make 100,000 rice dumplings a day. Tomorrow, we need to prepare 20,000 catties of glutinous rice, 5,000 catties of green beans, 5,000 catties of red dates, and 5,000 catties of pork… We’ll buy them from the surrounding villages first. If it’s not enough, we’ll go to the county city to buy them… We don’t have to buy everything at the same time. We’ll do it in four batches… It takes time to process the ingredients, and it takes time to wrap the rice dumplings…”

There were too many things to do. By the time Shen Mengxue arranged everything, two hours had passed.

The villagers received their respective tasks and returned home. They would follow the plan tomorrow.

Chu Qingzhi poured a glass of water for Chu Xuhua. “Brother, give Ruyue some water. She spoke for two hours and her throat must be sore from it.”

Chu Xuhua was about to refuse, but when he heard the last sentence, he hesitated for a moment before taking the cup and walking towards Shen Ruyue.

In the courtyard, Shen Ruyue was sitting on a chair, writing something with a pen in her hand. Suddenly, a glass of water appeared in front of her. She was stunned and looked up. When she saw the embarrassed look on Chu Xuhua’s handsome face, she was also embarrassed.

Chu Xuhua pushed the water forward. His voice subconsciously softened. “Drink some water to moisten your throat.”

Shen Ruyue took the water clumsily and took a small sip. The water not only moistened her throat, but also her heart. “Thank you, Brother Xuhua.”

“Rest early. It’s late,” Chu Xuhua said and left quickly.

Shen Ruyue smiled faintly and took another sip of water.

At night, Li Qingyu was unwilling to let her children suffer, so she only gave her and Chu Rong’s room to Zheng Guixiang and Li Hanhai to sleep in. The rest all slept in the shed.

Of course, there were people who complained, but she pretended not to hear them.

Chu Rong doted on Li Qingyu very much. Although he was not very satisfied with his mother-in-law’s family, he did not say anything.

After everyone fell asleep, the Chu family finally quietened down.

At the military camp.

In the morning, the trusted aide handed over a letter the moment Tang Jinghong woke up. “General.”

Tang Jinghong leaned against the bed and opened it…

Rong Yupeng was the second young master of the Rong family. He was 22 years old and became a scholar at the age of 20. He was once engaged to the eldest daughter of the Xu family, the richest family in the county. However, he despised her for being disfigured and broke the engagement.

Chu Qingzhi sent Rong Yufan to prison. Madam Rong held a grudge against Chu Qingzhi and wanted to take revenge.

After Rong Yupeng found out what happened to his brother, Rong Yufan, he took over this matter and found some hooligans to spread rumors about Chu Qingzhi.

IVro days ago, Rong Yupeng disappeared for some reason.

Madam Rong had already reported it to the authorities and everyone in the county was looking for Rong Yupeng. Rumor had it that Rong Yupeng had been taken away by a few men who liked men.

Rong Yupeng had disappeared without a trace.

Tang Jinghong smiled slightly. Chu Qingzhi’s method was really ruthless.

When Rong Yupeng was saved and came back to hear the rumor about him in the county, he would probably want to die.

Tang Jinghong called out softly, “Shaoyuan.”

A man wrapped in black silently appeared in front of him. “General.”

Tang Jinghong instructed calmly, “Go and make the situation worse. Make sure that everyone knows about what happened to Rong Yupeng. In addition, this man is vicious. Find a reason and send him to the border. Also, Madam Rong is not a good person either. Get rid of her!”

Wen Shaoyuan cupped his fists. “Yes, General.”

Tang Jinghong crumbled the letter and narrowed his eyes, revealing a murderous look. The little girl was so good. How could he let some despicable people ruin her!

The entire Chu Village was busy, but with a plan, the work went on in an orderly manner.

Because of Chu Qingzhi’s demand for a large number of ingredients, the business in the county and surrounding villages had improved a lot.

After buying the glutinous rice and green beans, they immediately soaked them in water.

The red dates were decored, the pork was marinated, the bamboo leaves were prepared, and the cotton thread was in place.

When the villagers encountered a problem, they would come up with an idea together and resolve it easily.

In the beginning, only a group of people helped Chu Qingzhi prepare the rice dumplings. Later, when the villagers saw that there were too many things to do, they all joined in. Therefore, the Chu Village became as lively as the New Year.

Chu Qingzhi only needed to be responsible for one thing, which was the bamboo leaves. At this moment, she was leading more than ten girls from the village into the mountains.

Chu Lanzhen was also among them. She took two steps forward and caught up to Chu Qingzhi. She said gratefully, “Sister Qingzhi, thank you for treating my father. My father can stand up now.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Ask him to walk more. It can help with recovery.”

Chu Lanzhen said seriously, “Sister Qingzhi, I’ll remember it.”

Chu Shujing came over and asked curiously, “Sister Qingzhi, I heard that you can make beauty ointment.”

This news started with Sister Chu Eighth.

Chu Eighth liked to look pretty. That day, a mosquito bit her face and she cried and shouted that she was disfigured.

When Chu Qingzhi heard this, she used herbs to make an ointment to remove the swelling. After applying it, the mosquito bite quickly receded.

Chu Eighth liked to show off, so she went to tell her friends in the village that Chu Qingzhi had made a beauty ointment for her.

The news spread like wildfire and soon, the entire Chu Village knew about it.

Chu Qingzhi told Chu Shujing, “That ointment can only remove swelling from mosquito bites. I can mix the beauty ointment you mentioned, but the herbs are very expensive.”

As soon as Chu Shujing heard that it was expensive, she immediately dismissed the idea. “I’m just curious. Sister Qingzhi, I’m not asking you to make it for me.”

As they chatted, the girls arrived at the bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest was huge. It was not a problem to collect three hundred thousand leaves. Everyone put down their baskets and began picking.

The Zhou Village.

Zhou Fangyu ran into Village Chief Zhou’s house. “Village Chief, two strange people have come to our village.”

When Village Chief Zhou heard this, he immediately became serious. “What strange people?”

Zhou Fangyu scratched his head in confusion. “As soon as they entered the village, they asked us if we had seen a young man.”

Village Chief Zhou thought to himself. Could it be that they were asking about the person Miss Chu saved? He remained calm and asked, “What did you say?”

Zhou Fangyu waved his hand and said, “We all said that we don’t know.”

Village Chief Zhou asked, “Where are they now?”

Zhou Fangyu looked at the door. “They’re coming to your house now..”
