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.
