Su had never been so fierce in the village before.

Today, in order to protect her third daughter-in-law, she actually broke ties with everyone, and everyone's gaze towards Jiang Tangtang has changed again.

They were all confused about what had happened to the Lu family during their separation. Why was the Lu family suddenly treating Jiang Tangtang, this seemingly good-for-nothing beauty, like a treasure?

Despite their confusion, Gao Shumei and the other women who wanted to take advantage of the situation did not want to antagonize the Lu family.

The group could only swallow their grievances and apologize to Jiang Tangtang, then showered Madam Su with countless kind words. Madam Su's expression softened slightly. "We are not unreasonable people. If we had the means, we wouldn't just stand by and do nothing."

She took a knife and cut the banana tree that Lu Shiyan had just cut into many small pieces. She said to the villagers, "These are banana trees that my family uses for drinking water. If any of you are out of water, you can come and take some to quench your thirst. However, we have no water left at home, so we don't have much to give you. I hope you won't mind."

Although Lu Shiyan led everyone to find a water source a couple of days ago and everyone's water bags were filled with water, the weather is hot now and everyone is traveling, so the water consumption is also high.

By now, each household had very little water left in their water bags. The villagers were extremely grateful that Mrs. Su was willing to share some banana trees with everyone, repeatedly saying, "What are you saying, Sister-in-law Lu? Your willingness to help us is our savior. We will remember your kindness for the rest of our lives. There's no question of blaming you!"

Some people looked in Gao Shumei's direction and said sarcastically, "We are not the kind of people who are ungrateful."

...

The crowd spoke kindly and obtained a banana tree from the Su family.

Having just witnessed everyone's selfish and self-serving nature, Su Shi didn't take their words seriously this time.

The reason for sharing some banana trees was simply to prevent the Lu family from being too lucky and attracting jealousy, which could lead to sabotage.

Moreover, she only cut down one banana tree without the core and distributed it to the villagers, leaving more than ten banana trees behind, which would not affect their family.

After the villagers left, Su cut down a banana tree. She gave the banana core to the children, while the adults ate the outer shell of the banana tree.

The group chewed out the moisture from the banana tree husks like they were eating sugarcane, then spat out the residue.

Although banana trees are not as sweet as sugarcane, they have a high water content. The Lu family members, who had been thirsty all afternoon, found the bananas very refreshing.

Jiang Tangtang had drunk mint tea in the afternoon and just ate banana heart, so she wasn't thirsty.

Seeing that Lu Chenyan kept staring at the banana leaf, she thought he was hungry, so she lifted the banana leaf, broke off two ripe bananas from inside, and handed them to him, saying, "Eat, then go to sleep."

Lu Chenyan didn't eat any himself, but instead took the bananas to feed the pony. Jiang Tangtang was about to say that the horse wouldn't eat bananas, but the pony happily started eating them.

Gao Shumei was unwilling to give up on getting bananas from the Lu family, so she kept a close eye on them.

Seeing that the Lu family wouldn't give her son bananas, but instead let the little mute boy feed them to the horses, she was so angry she almost twisted her nose out.

Meanwhile, Luo Taohua and the others also discovered that Lu Chenyan was feeding the pony with bananas.

Luo Taohua ate the tasteless banana tree bark and muttered, "That silly child, everyone else is gnawing on the bark, but he's taking the fruit we finally got to feed the livestock. Jiaren and Jiahe, go and stop him, don't let him waste all the fruit."

Lu Jiaren swallowed hard, suppressing his craving, and said, "Mother, we all rode the ponies today, they must be exhausted, let's give them some to eat!"

Lu Jiahe was five years younger than his older brother Lu Jiaren. At only eight years old, he was his brother's little shadow. Seeing that his brother said he didn't want to eat, he nodded and said, "Mom, I don't want to eat either. Let my cousin feed the pony!"

Luo Taohua was furious with the two children and wanted to curse them out.

"Alright, the child says he doesn't want to eat anymore, what are you nagging about?" Seeing that his wife was about to relapse into her old habits, Lu Shiwang quickly reminded her, "Don't forget what your mother said!"

Luo Taohua instantly regained her senses.

That's right. Jiang Tangtang's status is not the same as before. The Lu family's current good fortune is all thanks to her.

If it weren't for her bringing good fortune to the Lu family, they might not even be able to afford banana trees now, let alone have their son riding a pony.

For safety reasons, the Lu family always stayed close together when they rested, and Jiang Tangtang naturally overheard Luo Taohua's conversation with her two sons.

Jiang Tangtang looked at the children of the Lu family's first and second branches, and at the bananas in Lu Chenyan's hand, all of whom showed longing expressions. She felt inexplicably choked up.

If she had just transmigrated, she would naturally have been able to harden her heart and ignore the group.

But in the last few days, Luo Taohua has changed a lot. The children are also pitiful. Now that she is trapped with the Lu family, she has no intention of creating too much conflict.

So they simply lifted the banana leaves, took out the ripe bananas inside, and let Lu Shiyan take them and share them.

Thinking back, many villagers had come to take banana trees, but only the village chief's family hadn't come.

Then, turning to Lu Shiyan beside him, he said, "Didn't you borrow water from Village Chief Song and say you'd return it to them once you found it? Why don't we just take some bananas and banana trees over to them?"

Lu Shiyan was about to sit down and meditate when he heard this, so he nodded and said, "I'll send it over in a bit."

They harvested five bunches of bananas today, but only the top ring of three bunches was ripe; the rest were still unripe.

Lu Shiyan picked out a few ripe bananas, a few unripe ones, and half a banana tree, and took them to give to Village Chief Song.

Village Chief Song repeatedly refused, saying, "With so many people in your family, why would you bring us things?"

Jiang Tangtang was worried that this aloof immortal lord wouldn't know how to handle interpersonal relationships, so she came along too.

She glanced at Gao Shumei and the others who were staring intently at them, and deliberately said loudly, "It's only right. Today our family was short of water, and I was also suffering from heatstroke and feeling unwell. We are so grateful to the village chief for bringing us two water bags."

She wanted the villagers to know that although Jiang Tangtang was spoiled and demanding, she was also reasonable.

She will repay those who are kind to her.

She wouldn't pay attention to those who want to gain benefits without giving anything in return.

Village Chief Song was quite surprised that Jiang Tangtang would say such a thing. He couldn't help but look at Jiang Tangtang carefully for a few moments. "We were able to find water the day before yesterday thanks to your husband. Without your help, we wouldn't have had any water. It was all we should do, so we can't accept anything from you anymore."

Jiang Tangtang said, "Village Chief, please accept it! I still have some banana trees at my home, enough for us for now. It's hot, and the moisture in the trees will evaporate if left too long. Please don't be so polite with me."

Village Chief Song then accepted the items.
