Chapter 96: Weak Woman

Zhao Yingying was startled. She hurriedly waved her hand in front of Yang Fen’s frightened eyes and said, “No, no. My big brother killed a lot of people on the battlefield, and the smell of blood on him could scare children to tears. He loved to tear people apart with his bare hands, but he’s not like that anymore. He doesn’t like to kill people in such brutal ways. Now, he likes to tie people’s hair into a ponytail and drag them all over the streets. He thinks it’s more exciting to hear people’s wails.”

Zhao Ruifeng, who was far away in the disaster relief area, had no idea that his future wife and his dear sister were working together to defame and spread rumors about him. The two of them scared Yang Fen so much that her face turned pale and her legs trembled. She was so scared that she could not say a word and quickly ran away.

“Ha.” Jiang Xi sneered and her eyes were full of mockery. Yang Fen used to like the original owner a little when she was young, but now that the children were all grown up and involved in marriage and needed money, the difference between daughters and sons was obvious.

“Did you ask Wu Tielong to open up the snow mountain because you want to get out? My big brother sent a letter saying that all the villages are recruiting labor forces to resist the refugees. You, a weak woman, should be careful when you go out.” Zhao Yingying said with a smile. It was hard for her to tell what kind of image Jiang Xi had in her brother’s heart. Was she too weak to even stand a gust of wind?

“Weak woman? Have you ever seen a weak woman with hundreds of strong men behind her? Even I’ve never been so impressive!” Yuan Qilin held the bowl and swung his short legs on the stool. He could not help but sigh in his heart. His father said that the women in this country were dignified, gentle, kind, and magnanimous. He said that the girls raised in this country were all very gentle and that he should marry a woman from this country in the future to be the crown princess… Now, Yuan Qilin only wanted to grab his father’s collar and shout. ‘Liar! Big liar! What gentle and kind? Could a little village girl could raise a wild boar as a pig and have hundreds of strong men as guards? Did you think that your days are too good, so you wanted to marry such a woman? Do you want to be beaten up every day?’

Yuan Qilin’s aggrieved expression made Zhao Yingying burst into laughter. Yuan Qilin was a mischievous child and usually did not listen to criticism. It was said that he was too naughty and had offended his father, so he was sent to their country to study. He was supposed to go to Jing City to study, but he ran away halfway.

Jiang Xi nodded. She knew that she was very lucky and that whatever she said would come true. However, if she could save people’s lives, it would be a great help to her luck. This was the difference between her and ordinary people. Ordinary people’s luck might change at any time, but the base of it was basically the same. Their good luck was only a little bit, but Jiang Xi’s luck was unlimited and could even be improved! She could break through! As for Zhao Ruifeng’s good luck, it was probably negative.

“Get some people to dig in the southeast direction of the mountainside and dig three feet deep on the top of the mountain. Also, I’ve marked the trees on both sides of the road on the mountain. Go and take a look at all the places marked.” Jiang Xi’s eyes flickered. The wild boar lying outside the door shrank its butt and tucked its tail between its legs. It lowered its head and began to behave like a good pig. However, the wild boar was already crying in its heart. How could its master know everything?

Although Zhao Yingying was puzzled, she still told Wu Tielong to bring people up the mountain according to Jiang Xi’s instructions. Currently, the food in the village could barely last until the snow melted the next year, but this was under the premise that they could make do with one meal per day. It was impossible to have a filling meal.

“People should go out more in case there’s a surprise.” Jiang Xi was wearing the red fox fur cloak that Zhao Ruifeng had given him. Standing in the snow, her red lips and white teeth were extremely striking.

“Other people become village chiefs by relying on their strength. You become a village chief by relying on men!” Jiang Guoan sneered from a distance. He was still brooding over Jiang Xi snatching his position as the village chief.

“No, I’m the village chief because of luck!” Under Jiang Guoan’s exasperated gaze, Jiang Xi walked away on the snow with creaking steps. Zhao Yingying followed closely behind like a fangirl.

“Good day, village chief!”

“Village chief, be careful. The road is too slippery!”

“Good morning, village chief.”

Jiang Xi took a few steps forward and the brothers brought by Wu Tielong greeted her. They even bowed with a very respectful appearance. Each and every one of them was well-behaved and did not look like a bandit at all. The villagers of the Happy Village were secretly speechless when they saw this.
