Ikeno nodded and hummed in agreement.
Chi Yu continued, "You are the eldest grandson of the Chi family."
You should know about Lord Fang's background; he is a descendant of a marquis.
Spending more time with him and making a lasting impression on him is never a bad thing.
Whatever you want to do in the future, having this connection will make things much easier.
Of course, the most important thing right now is to cover for your aunt.
Chi Ye knew that his aunt had a powerful backer.
Protecting his aunt's secret was more important than protecting his wife and children, so he naturally had to help her cover for him.
Therefore, upon hearing this, he gave a heavy "hmm".
After he exited the wooden fence and confirmed that no one was around, he asked:
"Aunt, you specifically mentioned Lord Fang's identity to me just now. Did you have another meaning behind it?"
Chi Yu didn't say anything, she just smiled and looked at him.
Chi Ye asked the question subconsciously, and seeing his aunt's expression, he was completely confused.
It's certain that there really was another meaning behind it.
What could that be?
Is it possible that Lord Fang will be promoted soon?
Could he then use Amu's connections to curry favor with Lord Fang?
If there's anything at home later, Master Fang will definitely help.
Or perhaps, if his descendants take the imperial examinations in the future, Lord Fang will help introduce them to some famous teachers.
While Chino was still puzzled, Chiyu asked:
"Ah Ye, have you stocked up on food and water at home recently?"
"Is the cellar at home all dug?"
"Replying to Aunt, the cellar is still a bit short, but there's still time, it's okay if it's a few days later."
As for water, I've stockpiled some, but there aren't many things at home that can hold water.
I asked Ah Guang's mother to empty all those jars.
The water in the jars had all been boiled.
As for food, my parents bought a lot before, but now they eat with you.
The food we have at home is enough to feed my family and Ah Ye's families for two or three years without any problem.
He paused at this point, then continued:
“These days, whenever Ah Guang’s mother has a spare moment, she goes out to pick wild vegetables.”
In addition, some were also planted in the field.
I've already planned it out. When it gets really hot and I can't grow vegetables in the fields outside anymore, I'll plant them in wooden baskets.
The sun isn't so hot in the mornings and evenings, so you can bring it out to bask in the sun.
Once the sun gets bigger, we'll move it back indoors.
As long as there is water and sunlight, it should be possible to grow it.
In addition, we also prepared dried vegetables.
"That water... I might have to ask my aunt for it later."
Chi Yu nodded: "Yes, you definitely need to stockpile water, as much as you can."
Anyway, it has to be done for outsiders to see.
I'll find a reason to give everyone the water from my side when the time comes.
As for water storage tools, besides wooden buckets, jars, and water tanks, other tools can also be used.
For example, bamboo jars.
I imagine there have been quite a few people digging for bamboo shoots in that bamboo grove at the foot of the mountain lately.
Ah Ye, if you have time, go and get some bamboo.
When it comes to bamboo, Chi Yu thinks of bamboo whips.
If we could dig up some bamboo shoots and put them in her space, a bamboo forest could grow in three to five years.
When the time comes, it will be very convenient to eat bamboo shoots.
Well, after a few days, once everything in the field is ready, she'll have to plant some trees in her spatial dimension.
