Although they had never experienced fleeing famine, they were still horrified by what they said. Ke Xin now felt a little sympathetic towards these two people: "So... then you two adults and two children are the only ones left in the entire village?"

They both nodded, tearfully saying, "There were a few people there at the time, but they were all too grief-stricken and hadn't eaten or drunk anything for a long time. Some were so exhausted they couldn't move anymore... They died right where they were. We were the only two of us from the entire village who made it out with our children."

After saying this, Mrs. Hu raised her tearful eyes and said, "If it weren't for Manager Mi saving us, we would have starved to death on the roadside."

Miguel looked at Liu Feiyang and Jiang Kexin awkwardly and said, "I...I really didn't know they were from the Jin Kingdom."

"Now you know?"

Miguel nodded and said sullenly, "I understand."

Liu Feiyang glared at Mig, and when he looked at the two women, he suddenly felt a headache. If he handed the people over like this, he was afraid that the government would think they were spies from other countries and execute them on the spot. They would probably do this to keep their official hats.

But if that were the case, the children that the entire village risked their lives to protect would definitely not survive, and those who died in the mountains would die with regrets.

Ke Xin looked at the two women and thought about how difficult their situation was, especially since they had children with them.

"You two go back and pack your things, take the children and follow me. You don't have to work for the time being until I have investigated you thoroughly."

She was worried about leaving it outside, and at least she could keep an eye on it if she kept it under her nose. But then she thought, what kind of information could the Jin spies find out if they stayed in the manor?

But just in case, she'd better be cautious.

While the two of them were packing up, Liu Feiyang said to Ke Xin, "I'll send someone to investigate as soon as possible. If that's the case... then you can stay and be a maid!"

Ke Xin thought so too, but the focus now should not be on it, but on the drought!

"Husband, if we have enough manpower, please go to Hehua County and see what the rainfall and winter snow conditions were like last year!"

After Ke Xin finished speaking, she said worriedly, "If there is a severe drought throughout the Jin Kingdom, will it lead to a war between the two countries?"

Speaking of war, Liu Feiyang shook his head: "Probably not. If there really was going to be a war, my cousin would have prepared food and fodder long ago, but I haven't received any instructions to prepare food and fodder yet."

"Besides, the Jin Kingdom is already struggling to take care of itself, so how could it have the time to fight? This isn't realistic!"

After hearing what her husband said, Ke Xin felt that she was a little too worried.

They ate a little at lunch, but couldn't finish it because they were busy. After the two of them had packed up, they took them out of Shadow Moon Villa and headed to the next villa.

Feihua Villa.

The manager is called Jiang Kepao, who has been in this farm for three years. He introduced them to Liu Feiyang and Jiang Kexin. After comparison, Kexin found that the soil quality of these farms was quite good.

Five hundred and seventy acres is not very noticeable among the four villas, but it is not small either. It is more than two hundred acres larger than Wuji Villa.

After returning to Liu's house, Ke Xin arranged the person in her own yard as a maid as soon as she entered the house. At that time, Liu Feiyang also asked people to investigate the situation in Zengcun Town, especially in the mountains. If there were really wild wolves attacking people or tigers injuring people, they would definitely leave traces.

In the afternoon, Ke Xin stayed in the study with her head down. Among the four manors, Wujishan Manor had the least fertile land, and the mountain it was leaning against was also their own, making it the most suitable for making wine.

Now that we have chosen a place, we can build a wine-making workshop, a warehouse, and a drying yard...

It gets dark early in winter, and by the time she finished drawing the blueprints, the lights in the house were on. She was quite satisfied with her afternoon masterpiece. When she was about to talk to Liu Feiyang about building a wine-making workshop, he arrived in high spirits.

He grabbed Kexin's hand and left: "The county sent a batch of fruit tree seedlings and seeds. I asked someone to send them to the other courtyard. Let's go and take a look now!"

Ke Xin was surprised: "So fast?"

Liu Feiyang raised his chin and raised his eyebrows proudly: "How dare I delay in doing what my wife asked me to do? Let's go...see if there is anything you like. If not, I will ask someone to find it!"

The two of them got on the carriage, and Xiaowu drove towards the villa. The Liu Mansion was in the south, and the villa was in the east. It was just a matter of turning a corner and they would arrive there in a few whips.

This time, the two did not climb over the wall, but went through the main gate.

When Butler Liu saw the young master and young mistress coming, he immediately greeted them. Although he was old but not senile, he naturally knew the purpose of their visit and took the initiative to say, "The saplings are afraid of freezing, so I asked someone to put them in the woodshed!"

Liu Feiyang hummed and praised him casually: "Butler Liu is thoughtful. This is none of your business. Go and have a rest!"

After saying that, he pulled Ke Xin and ran to the woodshed in the backyard.

The woodshed in Kexin's mind was as big as her own woodshed, except that it was built better. But when she saw the woodshed in the other courtyard, she was really shocked. This woodshed was more than three times bigger than theirs.

At that time, there were rows of fruit tree seedlings standing in the woodshed, placed in piles. A piece of paper with the name of the fruit tree written on it was stuck on each bundle, and there were two bags of seeds on the ground.

Mulberries, grapes, peaches, and cherry saplings—these were exactly what she wanted. She happily opened two bags of seeds, one containing watermelon and the other strawberry.

"Great, it's exactly what I wanted!"

Ke Xin smiled and looked at Liu Feiyang: "I want to move these saplings to the space now, but how should I tell the housekeeper?"
