This Liu Juan is really never quiet for a moment. Since she came here, she has either been causing trouble for Xu Miaomiao or going against Gu Yuan's mother. It was as if she was determined to stay in this family. Today, she caused such a trouble and almost lost the baby in her belly. Xu Miaomiao didn't know why. Obviously, the child was her greatest guarantee, but she was willing to attract the attention of Gu Yuan's mother and Xu Qingshan even if she had to lose the child. It was she who insisted on staying here, and she was also the one who was with Xu Qingshan, but now she did such a thing, which really made Xu Miaomiao a little confused.
Needless to say, Xu Qingshan was extremely annoyed with her from the very beginning and was unwilling to say a few more words to him. Although Gu Yuanniang had some sympathy for her, she had been worn out by his things over time. In addition, because of what Liu Juan had done before, Xu Qingshan had always been on guard against him, fearing that he would hurt Gu Yuanniang.
For the sake of Gu Yuan's mother, he absolutely could not let Liu Juan get close to him again. Xu Qingshan kept thinking about this as he supported Gu Yuan's mother and walked slowly forward. After all, Gu Yuan's mother was now pregnant, and because of the previous miscarriage, her body was already worse than before. If it weren't for Xu Miaomiao helping her to recuperate, who knows what would have happened. Thinking of this, Xu Qingshan made up his mind to take good care of Gu Yuan's mother.
Liu Juan was lying on the bed behind her, watching the people leaving. The fierceness in her eyes was obvious. If there was some sympathy and grievance in her eyes just now, it had disappeared now, leaving only hatred. Why did these people treat her like this? She just wanted to find a way to survive, but Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuan's mother forced her like this, so don't blame him for being ruthless. Thinking of this, Liu Juan seemed to have made up her mind. She picked up her fist and smashed it into her stomach.
If it weren't for the determination in his eyes, people who saw him would probably think he was crazy. However, no one knew these things.
"Now, the people in Wangjia Village have lost those two pieces of land. It will be difficult for them to survive the winter this year. I'm afraid they will have to go up the mountain to hunt for a living." County Magistrate Hu said as he looked at Song Wushao who was standing aside. Song Wushao lowered his head and remained silent. Although Song Wushao's official rank was one level lower than County Magistrate Hu's, there were indeed only two of them serving as officials in Bai County, so everything had to be discussed before it could be done.
Seeing that Song Wu Shao didn't say anything, he sighed in his heart and said, "Originally, these two pieces of land were invented by Madam Xu. Now I want to ask her to manage the land, but unexpectedly, because of Liu Que's greed, he ruined the land. I don't know what to do next."
Song Wu Shao was a little surprised when he heard these words. Why would Hu Chong speak in Xu Miaomiao's favor and even attribute the mistakes in land management to Liu Quezi? He just couldn't believe it and was afraid that he was planning something bad.
Song Wu Shao thought secretly. As expected, before Song Wu Shao could say anything, Hu Chong immediately looked at Song Wu Shao and said, "Mr. Song, even if you are an official in the court and your wife is so powerful, there must be other ways to prevent the people of Wangjia Village from doing such dangerous things."
Song Wu Shao remained silent, thinking for a while.
After a long while, he finally spoke, looking at Hu Chong in front of him and said, "County Magistrate Hu, what are you talking about? If my wife was really capable, she wouldn't have failed to manage the land in Wangjia Village well, and she wouldn't have run her department store into this state. He is just a little talented, and if he really wants to be compared with the county magistrate, how dare he? Managing the land is the county magistrate's responsibility. How can my wife have the ability to take full responsibility for me?"
After Song Wu Shao finished speaking, he raised his hand and looked at the man in front of him. What he meant by these words was to let Hu Chong know that the management of the land was his, not Xu Miaomiao's, and that he should not push everything onto Xu Miaomiao. So, although he belittled Xu Miaomiao, he finally cleared him from the matter.
After dealing with this matter, Song Wu Shao just returned home and saw Xu Miaomiao embroidering. She told him everything that happened today.
Xu Miaomiao was a little surprised when she heard this: "Why? Those people went back to the mountains to hunt again?"
Song Wu Shao nodded in his seat: "From what he said, it is true, but I don't know if the result will be the same as before. If they start hunting for a living now, I am afraid they will not be able to store enough food for the winter. But if something happens to the people of Wangjia Village, I am afraid that County Magistrate Hu will not have an easy time either, so he wants to put all the blame on you."
"It's just abominable!"
Xu Miaomiao slammed the table angrily and almost stood up as she looked at Song Wushao in disbelief and said, "How could he get into trouble like this? He should have been responsible for these things. Do those lives mean nothing to him?"
When Song Wu Shao heard this, he sighed and looked at Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Miaomiao was also helpless: "There is really nothing we can do now. He does have some power after all."
Moreover, what happened today was indeed Magistrate Hu's fault, so naturally he had to stand up and speak for the people of Wangjia Village.
Seeing that no one said anything, Song Wu Shao sighed, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "I can't do anything now. The people of Wangjia Village treated you like this. Why bother with them? Just let them hunt for a living and let them fend for themselves."
Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao sighed. The two pieces of land he had opened up were intended to prevent the people of Wangjia Village from doing such dangerous things in the wild. However, now it has become a weapon to push them back. After losing the two pieces of land, they still have to return to such a life. For some reason, it is too late.
Xu Miaomiao had already thought of Grandma Liu's figure in his mind. This was probably the last bit of kindness that Wangjia Village showed him. Every day when he went to work on the land, Grandma Liu would hand him two pieces of rice cakes, fearing that he was too busy working on the land to eat. For some reason, two tears came down when he thought of this. There were no young and strong men in Grandma Liu's family. If he relied on hunting for a living, he might not be able to survive this cold winter. Thinking of this, Xu Miaomiao clenched his fists.
Same as above.
