"You dare? Sit down."
The clan elder forcefully pressed Ah Chen down to sit, making Ah Chen talk about serious matters.
Ah Chen was secretly delighted, but he quickly became serious and said, "At this time of year, the orchard on the mountaintop is the most crucial. I took a look from the aerial viewpoint today, and some things still don't seem quite right."
"We've made a mistake?"
Mentioning the orchard made the clan elders all tense.
Ah Chen said, “It’s not a mistake, it’s just that we need to be more careful! Uncle Ah Dong, you’re in charge of keeping the pesticides and honey in the orchard, so you must remember the methods I taught you.”
Uncle Dong nodded emphatically.
The clan elder asked, "Judging from what you're saying, you're going to the Starry Sky Fruit Forest as soon as you get back?"
"Things are more complicated over there than here. I need to go and teach those three branches!"
"You little brat, you never have a moment to rest." The clan elder said, exasperated.
Ah Chen took the rice wine poured by Uncle Ah Dong, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "According to the plan, the road from Xingkong Guolin to Quedong Village must be dug through within a month. Otherwise, once the things we bought this time arrive, it will be time-consuming and laborious to rely solely on the manpower of the Miao people! It will also delay the next stage of the construction."
Upon hearing this, the clan elder sighed deeply, his mood somewhat downcast, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Even the village elders of the Black Miao branch looked at Achen with deep reluctance.
"What's wrong? The way you're looking at me makes me feel like I'm about to get married!" Ah Chen asked jokingly.
The clan elders and village elders remained silent.
Finally, Uncle Adong said, "Achen, during the days you were away, the nine clan elders conveyed the order of the highest clan elder of our Miao family, who is second only to the Miao King, Miao Saint, and Holy Maiden, to respect the last wishes of the previous Miao King and Miao Saint and to rebuild Jiuyou Ancient Village at a new site."
"Jiuyou Ancient Village?"
Ah Chen knew about the reconstruction of the ancient village, but he didn't expect the name to be specific, just like his own Nine Realms Space.
Uncle Agan said, "Jiuyou Ancient Village is the most sacred village of my Miao people. Every Miao person hopes to rebuild it. This is the biggest event for my entire Miao family and an honor for every Miao person. We dream of doing our part for this ancient village."
"Because our Miao people haven't had a Miao king or Miao saint for a thousand years!"
"But once Jiuyou Ancient Village is completed, you'll have to move there, and we—"
"I just can't bear to part with you."
