Chapter 23 Food can only be sold to you partly

Chapter 23 I can only sell you part of the food

"It looks like she is unhappy."

As soon as the little woman said this, the others stared at Jiang Zhilan and Chen Zhicai who were resting not far away with strange eyes.

Counting the days, it has indeed been a month or two. I really can't say for sure.

For a moment, everyone had different expressions, and their eyes were as revealing as if they wanted to stare a hole in Jiang Zhilan.

Jiang Zhilan touched her lower abdomen with her hand with a complicated expression.

With... her and Brother Chen’s child is her and Brother Chen’s child!

Thinking of everyone's ridicule towards her this month, Jiang Zhilan's eyes slowly became firm.

God is really helping her, she must use this child to marry Brother Chen.

"What, it's done!" Mrs. Zhou came back to her senses and said in shock.

Mrs. Zhou said in a panic: "Oh, how can this be done? My daughter is not married yet, so she can't bring a small oil bottle with her."

Jiang Zhilan was thinking about how to attract Chen Zhicai, when her kind-hearted aunt covered her lips and smiled.

"How can you be considered a procrastinator? Your Zhilan is very lucky. The child in her belly is Chen Xiucai's first child."

Another person covered his mouth and whispered: "Then Chen Xiucai's mother, Mrs. Li, has long wanted to have a golden grandson. She is destined to recognize this child."

"Chen Xiucai wants our girl's body, and she's pregnant. She can't just spend a few hundred kilograms of food." Several women kept trying to persuade her, pretending to defend Jiang Zhilan.

Mrs. Zhou thought about the same thing. Although her family had asked for 200 kilograms of grain from the Chen family, it was just an apology for breaking her daughter's innocence.

If you're pregnant, it's a different price.

"Yes, how can I spend just 200 kilograms of grain on a good girl?"

With that said, Mrs. Zhou pulled Jiang Zhilan, who had regained her composure, to stand up.

The women watching the theater also gathered around Zhou and Jiang Zhilan and walked towards the Chen family.

Sitting not far from the crowd, the Jiang family saw the people in Jiangjia Village making a fuss again.

Mrs. Sun is very lively. As long as she doesn't look at the liveliness of her own family, she will be indispensable everywhere.

But the people in the village have made such a fuss, wouldn't it be a good idea to go over and watch the fun now?

"What is this?" Mrs. Sun said and stood up to look into the crowd.

Mrs. Sun looked around and finally pulled Jiang Zhiyue and said, "Girl Yue, let's go and see the excitement."

Seeing Sun's high spirits, Jiang Zhiyue didn't refuse and followed her strength and left.



After watching the fun, Mrs. Sun came back holding Jiang Zhiyue's arm.

After I came back, I couldn't help but share what I just saw.

"You haven't seen it. Just now, Mrs. Zhou took her daughter to the Chen family to cause trouble. That's Chen Xiucai's family."

"That girl Jiang Zhilan is pregnant. She was so happy just now that she was seen."

"..."

"That girl was crying so much that she could hardly breathe, yet she kept saying that she didn't blame Chen Xiucai."

"Oh, that pitiful force is so heartbreaking to see."

"Originally, Ms. Li's eyes widened when she heard that Jiang Zhilan was pregnant, but she refused to let go. She said that her son's real wife already had one, and if Jiang Zhilan wanted to get in, she had to act young."

"..."

Mrs. Sun kept opening her mouth, and then she explained clearly what had just happened.

Jiang Zhiyue looked at it and felt that with every opening of her mouth, she was almost acting out all the fun she had just opened.

"Then Mr. Zhou agreed like this?"

"That's definitely not the case. I finally asked for a bag of grain from the Chen family." Mrs. Sun continued, "I think Ms. Li is just waiting to have her golden grandson. If this girl doesn't give birth to a boy, I don't think it will matter.

Have a good life."

Jiang Zhiyue listened to what her second aunt said and thought of Jiang Zhilan's superb acting skills just now and had to say a word of admiration.

If Jiang Zhilan hadn't had time to glare at her when she was out of breath from crying, she would have almost believed it.

But what surprised Jiang Zhiyue the least was Chen Zhicai's reaction.

Just as cold-blooded as the original book.

It was Chen Zhicai's mother, Li, who had just agreed to Jiang Zhilan's entry into the Chen family. Chen Zhicai did not agree or disagree.

But in the name of caring about Jiang Zhilan, he told her to abort the child because he was afraid that she would suffer on the road to escape because of her pregnant belly.

But in the end he was stopped by his mother.

Mrs. Li has been waiting to have her grandson for who knows how long. How could she agree to this grandson after such a long time?

Jiang Zhilan was naturally unwilling. She originally planned to use the child as a bargaining chip to marry Chen Zhicai, so how could she agree to abort the child.

So when she heard Chen Zhicai telling her to abort the child, she acted like she was moved.

But he said: "I know Brother Chen loves me, but this child is Brother Chen's flesh and blood, how can I let it go... Wuwuwu."

Jiang Zhilan cried so hard that she wished she could breathe.

Mrs. Li was afraid that if she cried too much, she would hurt the child in her belly, so she quickly asked her to come in as a concubine.

Jiang Zhilan agreed after thinking about it.

Although being a concubine sounds unpleasant, she is the first woman that Brother Chen has entered.

Besides, anything can happen on this escape route, and it’s hard to say whether Brother Chen’s fiancée is still alive.

She is already close to the water.

Jiang Zhiyue and her second aunt came back at this time. I don't know what will happen next.

In just one afternoon, Jiang Zhilan changed from the daughter of the Jiang family to the concubine of the Chen family.

After resting for a while, everyone stood up and started on their way.

Wang Fengshou, who was walking in the middle, took a few steps to catch up with Jiang Yuchao.

"Brother Yuchao, are there any mountains or relatively large forests around here? The water we brought out is almost used up. We need to find a place to replenish it."

In everyone's mind, Jiang Yuchao is the most knowledgeable person, so we can only ask him about this matter.

Jiang Yuchao, who was asked, thought about the terrain map in his mind and remembered that there was indeed a mountain range in this area on the map.

But we still need to walk for two or three days.

He said: "Yes, yes, but we have to leave for two or three days at the latest. How much water do we have to bring?"

Hearing the affirmative answer, Wang Fengshou laughed: "I still have some water left. If I save some water in the past two days, I can survive for two more days."

"That's good." Jiang Yuchao said with a smile.

Perhaps it was because I had walked far away that I met more and more pedestrians on the road.

There are very few people in groups, but more families coming out alone.

However, it seems that their condition is not very good, their lips are chapped and their faces are red from the sun.

Because of hunger, his cheeks became thinner.

Seeing the large number of people coming, the eyes of those passers-by lit up.

There was no other reason. The cart they were pushing looked like it was full of grain.

Some people's eyes were red with hunger, and their eyes couldn't help but wander on the carts of the Jiang family and the villagers behind them.

But seeing so many people in Jiangjia Village behind, I shifted my target to the Jiang family.

They have relatively few people and have the most stuff.

At first glance, there were not even twenty people there, but there were three bullock carts and three flat carts.

Their eyes were like hungry wolves staring at their prey.

Jiang Hengrong looked from behind and immediately slowed down.

Since they don't want to come back, let them suffer a little.

When their food was about to be robbed, he would lead the people in the village to take action.

He didn't believe that the Jiang family could hand over the food without being grateful.

Other people in Jiangjia Village were nervously watching the pedestrians appearing in front of them, fearing that they would be hungry and rush to snatch them.

So I didn’t notice Jiang Hengrong slowing down.

The Jiang family had already pulled out the knives that were covered with something on the car.

Everyone looked around cautiously.

After this experience, they were no longer so panicked.

On the contrary, people from Jiangjia Village and nearby refugees were frightened and stopped when they saw each of them holding a knife.

Many refugees were frightened back, but after walking not far, they still met someone who wanted to "find wealth in danger".

Several waves of refugees gathered together in twos and threes, and soon nearly thirty people gathered, all of them men.

Some people were holding large knives that they found somewhere, but more often they were holding kitchen knives and sickles.

After seeing that the people in the village behind and the family in front didn't seem to be together.

They looked at the Jiang family and the others with fierce eyes.

The refugees gathered together looked at the Jiang family's team with eager eyes.

His eyes were filled with greed and desperate determination.

There were even a few people who looked at Jiang Zhiyue up and down with squinting eyes.

Apart from the small group of people present and the people from Jiangjia Village behind, there were only scattered people who were far away who were afraid of harming themselves.

"Hand over your food." A tall, thick-looking middle-aged man blocked the Jiang family's group.

Jiang Yuchao and Jiang Yuqing stood in front, without any fear in their eyes, and directly rejected them with their actions.

"We won't make it difficult for you. You can keep a cart of food, but we want the rest of the food and that girl." A man who never took his eyes off Jiang Zhiyue said.

The man added viciously: "Otherwise, we will take both the people and the food."

"If we wait to catch him in person, it won't be a matter of asking for a woman!"

"Hahaha, I see that the three older ones look pretty good too. Wasn't there one sitting on the bullock cart with a big belly just now? Catch that one too and let the brothers have a good time."

Several men were talking dirty words and did not pay attention to Jiang Yuchao who was standing in front of them.

Although everyone in the Jiang family had knives in their hands, the more than 20 people who gathered did not take them seriously at all.

There were quite a few old, weak, women and children, and the few remaining men didn't look like they could fight.

The knives in their hands probably came from somewhere.

Jiang Zhiyue felt uncomfortable being stared at by those men's greasy and disgusting eyes.

She looked stern, and her mental energy quickly shot towards those men who were talking dirty words.

"Ahhh! My head...my head hurts."

The people who had just spoken in increasingly explicit and offensive words were now kneeling on the ground.

He clenched his hands into fists and kept hitting his head.

"Help, my head, don't bite me, don't bite me!"

There were also several people lying on the ground rolling around, scratching their skin with their hands.

Jiang Zhiyue sneered and regarded this as the first big gift to them.

Not only did she attack them with her mental power, she also created a little illusion for them.

Seeing them lying on the ground crying and rolling around, the depressed mood just now became much better.

She took out a small dagger from her arms and walked over slowly.

Those who were still standing looked at the "new brothers" rolling on the ground, and then at Jiang Zhiyue, who was walking over calmly.

I don't know why I suddenly felt a little scared.

The tall and thick man who just shouted took a step back.

He raised the kitchen knife in his hand and pointed it at Jiang Zhiyue to encourage himself.

"Stop, don't blame me for taking action if you move forward!"

Jiang Zhiyue didn't even look at him. What she had to deal with now was the garbage lying on the ground!

Seeing Jiang Zhiyue still walking forward, the man suppressed the inexplicable fear in his heart and rushed forward with a knife.

As a result, before she could get close, Jiang Zhiyue kicked him away.

After the man flew out, a fat little boy ran over crying: "Daddy, daddy, are you okay?"

Seeing his father gasping in pain, the little boy rushed over to Jiang Zhiyue like a calf.

"Pangpang, come back quickly!" The woman who was helping the man up saw her son rushing towards Jiang Zhiyue, and she broke out in a cold sweat.

The little boy was only as tall as Jiang Zhiyue's thigh. He bent down and pushed his head against Jiang Zhiyue's body.

"You are such a bad woman, you actually bullied my father!"

Jiang Zhiyue was about to teach those people who had just spoken dirty words a lesson when she saw this little boy rushing over.

Her favorite thing on weekdays was the soft-looking child, so she didn't do anything harsh to him.

She raised one hand and grabbed the little fat man's head to stop him from moving forward.

But the little fat man's hands kept spinning forward like a perpetual motion machine, trying to hit her.

Jiang Zhiyue raised her head and glanced in the direction of the man and woman, and said expressionlessly: "Why don't you come over and take him away."

The man quickly endured the pain and pushed the woman, asking her to take the child back quickly.

After the little fat man was taken away, Jiang Zhiyue looked at the remaining people who were stunned and asked, "Where are you guys? Do you want to get out by yourself or should I help you?"

A few people walked aside knowingly, but there were still a few who stared at Jiang Zhiyue's movements with weapons in their hands.

"There are many of us. No matter how powerful her movie is, a little girl can't beat us. Let's do it together."

The remaining few people were heartbroken and said: "Yes, let's work together and catch this dead girl in exchange for food. With a few people missing, we can each share more food!"

Several people surrounded Jiang Zhiyue.

But before they could take action, they were kicked out one after another.

But it was obviously much harder than when he kicked the fleshy man just now.

After several people fell to the ground, they vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, which was shocking to see.

When Jiang Zhiyue was cleaning up the others, she didn't notice that the time for her mental power to work suddenly came.

The men who were lying on the ground screaming just now looked at each other, picked up the knife and stabbed Jiang Zhiyue in the leg calmly.

Jiang Zhiyue couldn't dodge and her clothes were torn by those people.

"Hiss~"

Jiang Zhiyue took a breath and realized that the sickle head in a man's hand had scratched her skin, and even planned to go deeper.

Jiang Zhiyue's face darkened. She was so careless that they succeeded.

She quickly retracted her injured leg, then snatched the sickle from the man's hand and stabbed it into his thigh.

"Ahhhh!!! How dare you little bitch...ahhhh!"

Hearing the screams, Jiang Zhiyue did not stop. Instead, she pulled out the knife and plunged it in again.

It wasn't until the curses in his mouth turned into constant begging for mercy that Jiang Zhiyue let him go and replaced him with another person to torture.

The others watched Jiang Zhiyue brutally 'torture' those people, and they all took two steps back in fear.

The first man who was thrown out and the few people who took the initiative to exit swallowed hard.

It's terrible, it's terrible.

She must have been merciful in what she did to me just now.

While Jiang Zhiyue was teaching these people a lesson, those who wanted to catch her and blackmail the Jiang family into giving them food also ran away secretly.

But before running away, he gave Jiang Zhiyue a hard look, and that look contained no ill intentions.

After Jiang Zhiyue returned to the Jiang family, she saw the backs of those people leaving in a hurry.

But she didn't have time to pay attention to them now, because as soon as she walked back, her grandmother and mother pulled her into the bullock cart.

Seeing that the injury on her leg was not that serious, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, but they still quickly cleaned and bandaged her wound.

But the people outside were obviously not as calm as them.

People in Jiangjia Village recalled Jiang Zhiyue's 'atrocity' just now with lingering fear.

She actually dared to stab someone with a knife. They were originally waiting for Jiang Zhiyue to be embarrassed, but they never expected that things would turn out like this.

They were still thinking... and thinking that if the Jiang family refused to give them food, they planned to threaten them.

However, Jiang Zhiyue dared to go in with a white knife and out with a red knife.

If they threaten Jiang Xiucai's family, will they suffer the same fate as those people?

In an instant, many people gave up on joining forces to force Jiang Xiucai's family to hand over their food.

If they eat sparingly, their food can still last them a long time.

However, some people have thought of the key point.

Jiang Zhilan, who had been waiting for Jiang Zhiyue to be dragged away by those men, felt extremely unhappy at this moment.

She pretended to be surprised and said: "Yeah, sister Zhiyue and the others all have knives in their hands, so the two extra carts of things they have are not..."

"Maybe they are robbing others. Sure enough, the whole family is so crazy that they even rob life-saving food at this time." Mrs. Wu took the opportunity to answer.

After hearing this, many people looked at the Jiang family and their group with strange looks.

I didn't expect that Jiang Xiucai's family, who usually seemed friendly to others, would do such a thing.

After dealing with those who blocked the road, the Jiang family planned to continue leaving.

Although there was only a small cut on Jiang Zhiyue's leg, Mrs. Jiang didn't want her to walk anymore.

In desperation, he had no choice but to sit on the shaft of the car.

Just as they were about to leave, the thick-looking man who had just been kicked away by Jiang Zhiyue walked to the Jiang family's oxcart with his wife and children.

It happened that the bullock cart Jiang Zhiyue was riding in was the first one. When she saw the man who stopped her again, she wondered if she had been too gentle just now.

The man saw that Jiang Zhiyue's face suddenly turned cold and knew that she had misunderstood, so he quickly said with a smile.

"Girl, can you sell us some of your food? Our family has not had anything to eat for a day, so please show some kindness."

Seeing someone taking the lead, some people who were far away just now also tried to take a few steps forward.

Seeing their pleading expressions, Jiang Zhiyue felt a little soft-hearted.

Anyway, the two extra carts of grain they got were a burden, so it was better to sell them to them.

She has unlimited space but can't do anything. Now that she has encountered it, she is not unwilling to help if it is not too much.

Jiang Zhiyue looked around and found that there were only a few people left.

These people totaled less than forty, and they all looked miserable.

Like the man who just spoke, they all looked at her sincerely.

It seemed as if Jiang Zhiyue's next answer was crucial.

This was indeed the case. Not only were the passers-by waiting for her answer, but even the people in Jiangjia Village who were deliberately separated from the Jiang family by a short distance came over after hearing this.

They thought Jiang Xiucai's family could give them this food!

If that girl really agrees to sell food to the refugees, what will they do?

Jiang Zhiyue hesitated for a moment before saying awkwardly: "Although we have a lot of food, we also have a lot of family members."

Hearing this, those with hopeful eyes thought there was no hope, and their eyes dimmed.

But things turn around so quickly.

Jiang Zhiyue continued: "So I can only sell you part of the food."
