Chapter 439 Sorry for eating and taking things (2/2)



Chi Yu had no idea what Qiu Dongmei was thinking.

After she and the others left, she discreetly went to the well and, while drawing water, quickly filled it with water.

When she returned to the bedroom, Wang Yunjuan and her daughter had just finished drinking the last sip of mung bean soup.

Chi Yu didn't rush to clear the table; instead, she sat down at the table.

Wang Yunjuan had a lot to say, and seeing this, she took the fan from the little girl.

As she fanned herself, she asked with curiosity in her eyes:

"Little Fish Sister, I heard that the drought situation outside is very severe?"

"Yes, I think you know something about the Wang family, but I won't go into details."

All I can say is that when we returned from the prefectural city, the Chu River was only half full.

Now that half a month has passed, I estimate that large ships on the river can no longer sail.

However, with Chuhe there, the temperature in the prefectural city is about the same as in our Chijia'ao.

However, one thing is certain: if the Chu River's water level continues to drop, the final temperature in the prefectural city will definitely be higher than here.

Although Wang Yunjuan had some understanding of the situation outside, she hadn't actually seen it with her own eyes.

Hearing Chi Yu say that even the water level of the Chu River had dropped so much, she felt incredibly fortunate that she had gotten there before others to buy land and build a house.

God knows, Jiao Niang stayed at her place for a few days before and said she wanted to move in.

Her daughter-in-law, seeing the increasingly hot weather, wanted her family to move over as well.

Her house wasn't very big; it couldn't accommodate both families at the same time.

Not to mention, if you're going to bring your in-laws to your home, you'll definitely have to bring them to the bride's family, who live in the same county.

She's been struggling with this for the past couple of days.

One family is her cousin whom she needs to rely on, another is her in-laws, and the third is her maternal family.

Thinking about these worries, she tentatively asked:

"Little Fish, I heard that the Chi clan has already sent people to claim territory in the Northern Lian Mountains."

When the time comes, will you be living there?

Well, I was thinking that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the water is getting less and less in various places.

Could you talk to the clan and ask them to allocate me a piece of land in the mountains?

My in-laws and my maternal family both want to take me in.

Another one is Jiao Niang, who also dislikes the heat and wants to move here.

My house simply can't accommodate all these people.

"Don't worry, I'll buy it from you with silver!"

Chi Yu shook her head decisively: "No, neither the clan chief nor I can make this decision."

My Chi clan entered the Beilian Mountains to claim land because of Lord Fang's decision when I returned.

Sister Wang, if you want to buy land, you'll have to ask Master Fang in person.

Today, tens of thousands of people in Anping County rely on the water source inside for their livelihood.

The government cherished that place.

In the past, we just stayed there.

I estimate that if this heat continues, within a month, people from neighboring counties like Anning will also be sending water to fetch it.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yunjuan instinctively looked outside, but ultimately said nothing.

She knew that at this critical juncture, the government would never sell the land in the Beilian Mountains to anyone.

Not to mention her, even the county magistrate's wife, Jiao Niang, wouldn't be an option.

The government would never make such a request!

Otherwise, if she could buy it with money, other wealthy families in the county town could too.

By then, the entire Northern Union Mountain Range will become private property.

And the water source will also be seized by those people by all means!

However, she still had to go back to her parents' home in person.

If the situation over there is serious, we can just make do for now and let them squeeze in.

Then the Guanchi clan continued to buy coal mountains, and they would have people work on it at night.
