Xiao Cui looked at the village chief and the others beside her, gritted her teeth and said, "That's right, I was invited by Aunt Yao to help Jing An's family with their work."
The fact that he kept calling him "Brother Jing'an" made the village chief and others really uneasy.
If this woman causes trouble after they leave, disturbing Zhou Jing'an's family, it will be a real problem.
Putting aside the fact that Zhou Jing'an needs to rest and recuperate, how can he participate in the scientific expedition if something else goes wrong?
As for Ning Huan, Jing An's wife just said she would teach the villagers to identify medicinal herbs, but if things get chaotic at home, she won't have the mind to teach them anymore.
The village chief glared at Yao and said, "If you dare to cause any more trouble, I'll get Zhou Dashan to deal with you!"
Upon hearing the village chief mention Zhou Dashan, Yao Shi immediately became somewhat frightened. She had done this behind Zhou Dashan's back, intending to tell him only after it was all done.
But now that the village chief was directly threatening her, Yao panicked.
He completely forgot about his earlier plan to show off Xiao Cui in front of Ning Huan after the village chief and the others left.
She hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Village chief, what are you talking about? What trouble could I possibly cause? Since I've brought the people with me, I'll head back now."
Then, ignoring Xiaocui's pleading eyes, he said to her, "Girl, you do your job well here, and your aunt will make sure you get your wages and benefits."
Seeing Yao leave without looking back, Xiao Cui became a little scared. Without Aunt Yao to back her up, how could she possibly fight against Ning Huan, the legal wife?
Thinking of Ning Huan's fierce demeanor just now, she panicked a little and thought she might as well leave with Yao Shi.
But before Xiao Cui could even lift her head, the village chief spoke up first: "Since you're here to do something, then you'd better hurry up."
Then the four little ones looked at Xiao Cui and said, "Auntie, since you're here to help us with the work, then come with us. There are some chores around the house that we need your help with right now."
Xiao Cui was about to retort that these little ones could possibly take her to do any work, but when she saw Ning Huan's eyes, she instantly fell silent.
Then she let the four little ones take her into the yard.
Ning Huan wasn't worried about the four little ones; she'd be grateful if these clever little devils didn't completely drive Xiao Cui crazy.
After she brought in tea for the village chief and the others, she didn't know what Zhou Jing'an and the others had talked about, but they all looked at her with a mixture of gratitude and excitement in their eyes.
Seeing Ning Huan's puzzled look, Zhou Jing'an explained, "The village chief was just telling me about how you saved Fan Juan."
The village chief nodded: "Jing'an's wife, I heard about what happened that day. I didn't expect you to be so capable. Fan Juan has been wanting to come and thank you for saving her life ever since she found out!"
Ning Huan just smiled faintly and said, "Actually, I just did what I was supposed to do. It still depends on Fan Juan herself."
The village chief grew to appreciate Ning Huan's character and way of speaking more and more.
"but..."
Ning Huan suddenly remembered something: "Fan Juan was unhappy with her in-laws' family, that's why she couldn't think straight. How is she doing now...?"
She meant that she was worried that she had only temporarily saved Fan Juan, and that if Fan Juan, who was still in hell, could not escape in time, she might still have thoughts of suicide in the future.
The village chief sighed and said, "I went there and told her that no matter what, she should think about her daughter. If Fan Juan is gone, Mao will definitely sell her three daughters right away."
Fan Juan knew that death would be a relief, but her three children were still living in hell. Although life was difficult, it was worth it if her suffering was enough to give her three daughters a chance to breathe.
The village chief continued, "Fan Juan is a sensible person. After listening to what I said, she stopped thinking about committing suicide. But I know that her life will definitely be difficult from now on, and she is a pitiful person."
Ning Huan asked in confusion, "Can't we just let Fan Juan divorce Mao Wa and raise the child on her own?"
The village chief looked at Ning Huan in surprise and said, "Jing An's wife, you can't say things like that. Do you know how difficult it is for a woman after a divorce? Besides, Fan Juan has three daughters to support."
"Besides, Mao Wa still has feelings for Fan Juan, it's just that this man listens to his mother too much."
As Zhou Jing'an listened to the village chief's words, he secretly hoped that Ning Huan would understand how difficult it would be for a woman after a divorce in this world. Perhaps then she would give up and stop thinking about divorcing him all the time.
Ning Huan frowned, thinking to herself that the village chief was right. After the divorce, Fan Juan didn't have any ability to support herself. If she had the ability, it wouldn't be difficult for her to raise her three daughters together.
Thinking of this, she suddenly had a good idea, so she said to the village chief, "Didn't I say before that I wanted to teach the villagers to recognize medicinal herbs? I just feel that if everyone in the village comes, my house really doesn't have that much space. How about we let each family choose one person to come and learn?"
The village chief hadn't yet realized what Ning Huan meant; he just felt that she had changed the subject too quickly.
But considering that learning about medicinal herbs would benefit everyone in the village, he thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Jing'an's wife, your idea is good. It is indeed a bit inconvenient for the whole village to come and learn, especially for those who have things to do at home and cannot come."
Ning Huan then said, "Village Chief, let Fan Juan come over on behalf of the Mao family to learn how to identify medicinal herbs."
With the skills to identify and collect medicinal herbs to make money, even if Fan Juan doesn't divorce Mao Wa, Mao will no longer easily try to torment her.
Having the ability to make money, Fan Juan can be more assertive and stand up straighter.
The village chief immediately understood Ning Huan's meaning, and his gaze towards Ning Huan changed considerably.
Ning Huan said slowly, "Village chief, actually, the reason my husband and I initially discussed teaching the villagers to collect herbs was to give some work to the elderly women and sisters in the village who had nothing to do at home."
The village chief asked, "What does this mean?"
"Men farm to support their families, but women don't just stay home to take care of the children and do housework. They can also do jobs that earn money. It's just that they don't have the strength to farm, so they have no other way."
The village chief glanced at Zhou Jing'an and saw him nod at him, confirming that what Ning Huan had just said was indeed something that Zhou Jing'an and the other person had discussed together.
Ning Huan, however, did not notice this subtle movement and continued speaking.
