"Even if I hadn't found my father, I would still have done these things. If we relied on others for everything, we would have been eaten to the bone on the way out of the famine."
Noticing the change in Jiang Huaixu's tone, Xiaoman tightened his grip on the reins, "Miss, I was wrong..."
Jiang Huaixu shook his head and said, "If you have any questions, just ask. Since Daddy has sent you and Shuangjiang to my side, you will be my people from now on. Understanding my way of doing things will only benefit me."
She paused. "With natural disasters happening everywhere, ordinary people can't support themselves by just farming. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many refugees. I'm doing business and looking for work for refugees to help them find a way out. Although what I can do is very limited, I'll just take it slow."
"I understand." Xiaoman bit her lip. She had been with the Marquis for too long and she almost forgot that she was sold by her parents when she was young because she had no food to eat during the war.

Dajin's group of more than 20 people found the tofu stall the next day. That night, Qi Dafu took them to Jiuxi Village. In the only ox cart lay Dajin's wife and newborn child.

Jiang Wei followed him, "Before, Third Brother and Zheng Yuan said that it's useless for women to paint, and most famous painters are men. Humph, now I feel like they are just jealous of me!"
Jiang Huaixu was silent for a while, "Where is Third Brother? I must beat him up today!"
Jiang Wei was so frightened that she immediately shut up. Although she also wanted to see her third brother being beaten, the strength of her youngest sister was too much for most people to withstand.
After finally stopping the man and letting him calm down, Jiang Wei said, "Little sister, please teach me how to draw. When I learn it, if you are not with us, I will draw the things happening at home and send them to you."
