It's really hard to just farm peacefully.

Chapter 246

As long as he thought about the possibility of continuing to see Fu Nulang, Jiang Yan would rather not meet Chunying and Yile, with whom he had a good relationship.

Especially after knowing that Fu Nulang and the leader of the village were most likely distant relatives, she didn't want to "fall into the trap".

Although Uncle Jiang He said that after she was presumed dead, Lady Fu ended their master-servant relationship, but...

"When you're under someone's roof, you have no choice." Jiang Yan held the ceramic bowl, her expression heavy. "If she finds out I've grown up and wants me to go back and serve her, should I obey or not?"

Jiang Yan had studied that slaves were not allowed to own private property, but if she wanted to go home, she had to own her own land.

The people of Dongshan Village are now seeking refuge in the stronghold of Fu Nulang's relatives. If this is used to threaten her... she may really succumb again.

Although she said this, Jiang Yan was still angry in her heart. She felt that she had lost her backbone, and she poked small holes in the surface of the wheat cake with chopsticks in frustration.

A volatile person jumped up and down, instigating, "Don't be a coward! It's not like she's completely defenseless. How can you be so scared of her once or twice!!!"

Another timid person worriedly advised: "Conflict is unnecessary. The most urgent thing is to survive for a few years and achieve our goals."

……

Jiang Yan's mind was filled with self-condemnation and reflection, and suddenly he slammed the table with a loud bang, like a scoundrel who had given up everything. "Since it's so chaotic out there, why don't we find a way to overthrow the village chief and become the boss ourselves!!!"

This way, she doesn't have to worry about anything and can continue to farm her own land in peace.

"Cough—cough—" Jiang He choked on the food in his mouth and kept coughing.

Jiang Ju was luckier. He finished his food early and was not shocked by Jiang Yan's outrageous words.

He patted Uncle Jiang He's back hard to help him calm down, then said to Jiang Yan expressionlessly, "We can't beat them."

"It doesn't matter if you're not my opponent in a fight. If a frontal attack doesn't work, we can use a roundabout approach." Jiang Yan walked over to the cupboard and squatted down. From a corner, he pulled out a small wooden jar and showed it to the two of them without opening the lid. "My secret weapon."

"Drug?" Jiang Ju, who had heard about the Rongyang County incident, quickly thought of the contents of the jar and asked curiously, "What effect?"

"Jiang Ju!" Jiang He didn't have time to drink water to moisten his throat. He shouted at Jiang Ju in a hoarse voice, then caught Jiang Yan and started to teach him a lesson.

"You keep something this dangerous in the kitchen? What if someone accidentally eats it?"

Jiang Yan retorted softly: "I hid it in a secret place, so I won't take it by mistake." And she stuffed some in every room to ensure that she would have the opportunity to take it whenever she wanted.

Jiang He had a heart attack, but pretended not to hear and continued to talk about more important things: "Stop thinking about drugging the village chief. He is not a simple bandit..."

After listening to the "great achievements" of the anonymous village chief and several of his managers for more than half an hour, Jiang Yan no longer had any extra thoughts and decided to secretly cultivate her land.

The next day, when Jiang He and Jiang Ju were about to leave, Jiang Yan, who was worried, specifically told them to keep the news of her being alive a secret from the outside world. She really didn't want some bloody plot to happen to her again.

In Furong Village, Fu Weixin looked at the letter in his hand in confusion.

Ever since she learned the truth about her parents' death from her fifth uncle, she has become even more resentful towards the Chang family. She even borrowed people from the village to write a letter to the Chang family to sever ties with them.

Over the past six months, she had abandoned her noble lady ways and was learning to live a new life as a bandit. Although she tried hard to fit in, for some reason, a barrier between them remained.

Fu Weixin sat down on a high chair, covering her face with her hands. Did Fifth Uncle see that she didn't fit in in the village and was thinking of arranging a marriage for her?
