Neither the father nor the son will be coming home tonight; they'll be keeping watch together.

After eating and drinking her fill, Ye Caiping said she would hang the remaining meat and bones in the village well, and then she went out.

Actually, she had already put the remaining meat and bones into her spatial storage.

After wandering around outside, Ye Caiping returned home under the moonlight. Ye Jin'er came out and said, "Mother, the village head is here. He's looking for you."

Ye Caiping entered the main room and saw Ye Lizheng talking to Old Man Ye.

"Uncle Village Head is looking for me?" Ye Caiping found a seat and sat down.

Ye Li put down his pipe: "I heard from Ba Jin that you guys are going out to set up a stall tomorrow."

"Yes. Oh, we finished the hot and sour soup we just cooked, otherwise we would have sent a bowl to Uncle Village Head too."

“You’re very thoughtful.” Ye Lizheng smiled, but his brow was furrowed with worry. “Bajin told me that when you went to town today, you ran into two people from Wangjia Village…”

"Judging from what they said, the method of removing toxins from cassava has already spread. I think in another two days, the village head or village chief from other villages will come looking for us."

"Do you think we should give them a proper lesson?"

Ye Lizheng came to find Ye Caiping because she had shared this method. In any case, he had to get her consent first.

Ye Caiping said, "If they come to ask, then teach them. After all, if everyone in our village knows it, who knows how many people will want to go back to their hometowns or relatives and have already taught it to others."

"We systematically taught these people, and the credit truly goes to our village. Also, Uncle Village Head, this is a major matter concerning food!"

"Cassava isn't just found in Niutou Mountain; it's found throughout Dashu Town and even in the southern regions. If everyone knew about it, it would be another food source."

"Therefore, the village head should inform the magistrate about how to eat cassava."

Ye Lizheng's eyes lit up, and he suddenly stood up: "That's right, why couldn't I remember! I'll go to the county town tomorrow!"

"Caiping, you are the one who made the greatest contribution to this matter. Don't worry, I will explain things properly and I will make sure you don't suffer any losses."
