After checking all the details one by one, Wei Che asked, "Old Village Chief, have you made all the arrangements?"

The village chief stroked his beard and replied calmly, "It's ready. I'm just waiting for you to come over."

"Okay, let's go."

At Su Huaiyue's command, everyone began to walk on the road leading to the state.

Before leaving, Su Huaiyue did not forget to give instructions to Wei Yunrou who stayed behind. She trusted her and said, "Yunrou, I'll leave the affairs of the village to you.

The vegetables may sprout in a few days, so don't let them get frozen. I'll have to trouble you more when that happens."

Wei Yunrou nodded: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will keep an eye on this place and will never make any mistakes."

The team is ready to go and their steps are firm.

The afternoon sun shone on them, and before they knew it, the outline of the village was gradually submerged by the green hills in the distance, but their hearts became brighter and brighter.

The early morning sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves and onto the stone road along the way, casting mottled light and shadows.

Su Huaiyue and her group embarked on a journey to the state. The road ahead was long and unknown, but her heart was full of anticipation.

After a few days' journey, the team passed by a village near the state capital.

The surroundings of the village appear barren, the houses are dilapidated, and the villagers look haggard, with expressions full of helplessness and anxiety.

Some villagers who were so hungry and thirsty that they knelt down around the carriage, kowtowed and prayed continuously.

"Kindhearted people, please help me. My child is less than a year old and has no milk to drink. He is starving to death. Please give me some rice."

"My dear ladies and gentlemen, my mother hasn't eaten for more than half a month. I beg you to save her."

"Give me something to eat..."

These suffering villagers were covered in dust. Su Huaiyue couldn't bear to see such a scene. Lord Li was an official in the court, and he couldn't bear to see this either.

All the food that could be provided in the carriage was distributed.

But after all, their food was not enough for so many people.

This scene shocked Su Huaiyue, who always cared about the people. She couldn't help but exchange a look with Wei Che, and her eyes were filled with heaviness.

At this time, Lord Li, who was traveling with us, stopped on his horse, looked at the scene in front of him, and sighed softly.

"I've seen a lot of situations like this along the way. It's really heartbreaking." He sighed, his tone revealing helplessness and uneasiness.

Su Huaiyue smiled slightly and consoled him, "Although it seems a little difficult right now, if we can successfully reclaim the land in Wangjia Village and plant wheat and vegetables, perhaps we can help the surrounding villages in the future and improve everyone's lives."

Lord Li was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a look of approval: "Madam Wei has a sense of justice and is quite smart. It seems that it was right for me to accompany her this time."

As the team continued to move forward, the scenery along the way gradually changed from barren to lush greenery, and the sun shone on everyone's face, as if foreshadowing an infinitely bright future.

Su Huaiyue and Wei Che walked side by side unconsciously. Although they didn't talk much, their tacit understanding with each other was evident.

At this moment, the outline of the state capital in front was faintly visible, and the raised dust looked like golden smoke in the sunlight.

Lord Li reined in his horse and said with a smile, "It's not far. Once we reach the provincial capital, we can make further plans for the next step."

Su Huaiyue nodded slightly, her heart as steady as a mountain, while Wei Che beside her had a sharp gaze, and seemed to be fully prepared.

Su Huaiyue, Wei Che and their group finally arrived in Dongzhou. The flow of people at the city gate was obviously more dense than what they had seen along the way.

In the sunlight, the city walls stand tall and the hustle and bustle of the streets can be faintly heard.

Lord Li looked up at the prosperous scene and seemed to feel at ease.

Arriving at the Liu residence, the Liu family's servants came out to greet them early. Su Huaiyue briefly introduced Master Li to Master Liu, her words polite and measured.

"Master Liu, this is Master Li. He has come with us to discuss important matters."

When Lord Liu heard it was Lord Li, he immediately bowed and saluted, "I've long heard of your great name. Lord Li, your visit to Dongzhou is truly an honor to our humble home!"

Lord Li waved his hand modestly, "No, no, I came here to assist Wangjia Village."

Hearing the name "Wangjia Village," Master Liu's eyes flashed with realization. "Yes, Miss Su mentioned to me that you want to call the villagers back to build their hometown, right?"

"That's right."

Wei Che interrupted at the right time, his tone firm, "Wangjia Village needs to be revived, and the people here also hope to have a place to live."

"This is not difficult to do." Lord Liu nodded, and then discussed the matter of posting the notice with Lord Li.

A few people decided to post the notice at the gate of Liu's house at noon the next day and call people from Wangjia Village to come and check it out.

Su Huaiyue felt a little relieved. She whispered to Wei Che, "I hope everyone is willing to go back. Without your support, reconstruction will be impossible."

Wei Che nodded slightly, his eyes looking into the distance firmly, "They will. Sometimes, hometown means more than just home to people."

After a while, Lord Liu warmly invited Su Huaiyue and his party to take a rest in his mansion and prepared some refreshments.

During the meal, Lord Li and Lord Liu chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere became unusually relaxed.

At this time, Su Huaiyue took the opportunity to discuss the next plan with Wei Che, "If Wangjia Village can resume production as soon as possible, we will start preparing for the distribution of crops after the spring."

"That's natural. With a plan, we can proceed in an orderly manner." Wei Che's tone was full of confidence.

On this day, the sunset in Dongzhou was exceptionally beautiful. Su Huaiyue and Wei Che stood in the courtyard of Liu's mansion, looking at the sky full of fiery clouds, their hearts filled with hope.
