Su Jin put away the things, took his hand, and walked out of the office together.
Zong Li and the members of the Divine Sword Team stood in front of the house without moving. The young couple walked to the door and watched Lu Boyuan walking back and forth at the door.
"Uncle, is there something wrong?" Lu Shiyi stepped forward and asked, "Someone is coming from the imperial capital again, so it's inconvenient to let you in."
"Ayi, is there any way to get some more coarse grains for the village?" Lu Boyuan didn't want to ask Lu Shiyi for favor. After the last division of the clan, the elders said that the more favors were used, the less they would be needed. To avoid critical moments, Lu Shiyi would choose to give up and try to avoid trouble.
The situation in the village was so difficult that several families came to Lu Boyuan's house to buy grain on credit.
"We'll only distribute two-thirds of the relief grain. Because you're here, the county has a lot of relief grain." Lu Boyuan smiled bitterly. "The drought is severe this year, and the fields are not producing much. Besides, the winter hunt has been canceled."
The situation in the deep mountains is unstable, and large prey are already near the water source. Lu Shiyi asked the patrol team to check at irregular times every day.
"Uncle, there are also difficulties on the logistics side, otherwise, we would have made arrangements long ago." Lu Shiyi explained, "In a few days, when the logistics department sends more food, I will see if I can ask for some to take back."
Lu Boyuan was immediately grateful. Lu Shiyi and Su Jin were willing to live in the backyard of the homestead just to ease the situation with the village.
"Uncle is on the farm, right? You take good care of him. If you want to pretend, you can stay at the foot of the mountain for a couple of days occasionally." Lu Boyuan whispered to Lu Shiyi, "When you go down the mountain, make little noise. The conditions around the homestead are pretty good."
Lu Shiyi nodded and agreed: "Uncle, Grandpa and Grandma are all here. I have no choice but to live down the mountain. I probably won't meet anyone in the village."
"Okay!" Lu Boyuan used the elders of the tribe to block the villagers from going into the mountains to seek help. If the situation did not ease, he would not be able to stop them.
After Lu Boyuan left, Lu Shiyi frowned, not knowing how to resolve the crisis.
After he helped the villagers alleviate the food crisis a few years ago, the villagers came to him for help whenever they encountered problems, which made him quite annoyed.
"Wife, don't mention the village affairs to grandpa for now. Grandpa's impression of the villagers remains before he joined the army, and he will ask me to help." Lu Shiyi didn't want to offer help, and it was difficult to explain to the old man.
"Ayi, grandpa actually knows how far the way down the mountain is. The old man went to the village some time ago. Not only did those people not recognize the old man, they even wanted to extort money from him." Lu Shiyi led the team into the mountains for inspection. After Uncle Yang accompanied Lu Bairen back, the old man locked himself in the study without even having breakfast.
What?!
Lu Shiyi looked at his wife in surprise: "Grandpa went down the mountain?"
"You were in the mountains those days, and grandpa's mood has calmed down. The old couple told me not to worry too much." Su Jin told Lu Shiyi.
Lu Shiyi smiled bitterly. It turned out that Lu Bairen had long been aware of the changes in the villagers and finally let go of the burden in his heart.
"Grandpa proposed to divide the clan and has long been indifferent to the relationship between the villagers." Su Jin persuaded Lu Shiyi.
"Let's go down the mountain and take a look!" Lu Shiyi had clothes for going out at home down the mountain. "We can't let them go into the mountains and harass the farm."
"Okay!" Su Jin accompanied Lu Shiyi step by step down the mountain. Some villagers went into the mountains to pick mountain products, and they greeted them enthusiastically when they saw them.
Lu Shiyi had a gloomy face all the way, and the villagers just said hello and went down the mountain.
"Wife, go around to the front to find Wang Zhiqing and the others. I'll be waiting at home for the elders to come." Lu Shiyi found that some villagers had rushed back and the elders should be home soon.
Lu Shiyi was ready to solve the problem at once. Su Jin was present, so there were some things Lu Shiyi could not say.
Su Jin packed up her things and went to the front with her backpack on her back.
I just arrived at the front yard and heard people arguing in the yard.
Su Jin walked straight in and saw Lu Qi's wife standing in the middle with a boy. Lu Shan's face was gloomy.
"Lu Zhiqing, I've warned you. If you know what's good for you, marry my brother. Otherwise, I will ruin your reputation." Lu Qi's wife said fiercely.
"How do you want to destroy your reputation and threaten the educated youth? It seems that the Du Qingsong incident has not awakened you." Su Jin's voice sounded behind them.
There was a flash of panic in Lu Qi's wife's eyes. Lu Qi's wife's brother looked at Su Jin with lust on his face. Regardless of Lu Qi's wife's obstruction, he ran directly to Su Jin and stretched out his arms to hug her.
Su Jin kicked the boy hard with her left foot, and the boy fell to the ground, crying out in pain.
"Third sister, go call the village chief and Lu Qi. I finally came back, but I was framed." Su Jin was not approached by anyone, and on top of that, she was protected by the people of the magic sword in the dark.
A burly soldier walked in from outside and stood in front of Su Jin.
Lu Qi's wife looked at Su Jin in surprise: "Sister-in-law, this is my brother from my mother's family. He is in love with Lu Zhiqing. How can you say it's a false accusation?"
"In love?!" Su Jin looked at the siblings with amusement. "As soon as you saw me, you reached out to hug me. If you hadn't learned a few tricks from Ayi, would I have banged my head against the wall?"
Lu Qi's wife quickly waved her hands to deny it. She didn't want to mention it again.
"You look better than the educated youth Lu my sister mentioned. It seems that you are also an educated youth. I will let you be my wife. If you don't agree, I will climb up your window at night." The boy shouted loudly.
"Song He, what are you talking about!" Lu Qi followed the village chief in and just heard his brother-in-law making a fuss.
After listening to Lu Shan's words, Lu Boyuan felt a little uneasy. Du Qingsong's incident had ruined the reputation of the Fourth Brigade. Every time he attended a meeting in the commune, he was criticized and educated.
