Then Chang Yue started chatting with Li Gui about the future development plans of Lihua Village. What she meant was that in the future, in addition to growing enough food for the villagers, the rest of the land in Lihua Village would be used to grow medicinal materials.
Because the land here is not big, Changyue felt that it was not worthwhile to grow low-grade medicinal materials, but it was too difficult to grow high-grade medicinal materials, so she wanted to grow some more cost-effective medicinal materials.
As for what medicinal materials to plant and how to plant them, she planned to go back and discuss them with Xiaobai and Yu Ruyi before making a decision.
Xiaobai himself likes to grow medicinal materials, so he should have a say in this aspect.
Chang Yue was talking to Li Gui in detail about her future plans when suddenly a dark-faced man ran over in a hurry.
"It's not good, dad! It's not good!"
When Li Gui saw this, he immediately reprimanded the man with a straight face: "Miss Seventh is here, what are you yelling at? You don't understand any rules."
The person who came was Li Datou, Li Gui's eldest son. He probably ran too fast and was bent over and panting.
"Dad...Dad...it's not good, he's dead!"
"What?" After hearing this, Li Gui jumped up in shock, "Who is dead?"
Li Datou waved his hands and said: "No...he is not from our village. He was fished from the river. No one knows him. Go and have a look!"
Li Gui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the person who died was not someone from Zhuangzi. If Miss Qi came to Lihuazhuang for the first time and someone died here, would they still have a future in the future?
"Miss Qi, I have to go and see what's going on. We'll talk about the rest later. Do you think that's okay?" Li Gui asked.
Chang Yue nodded, "You really have to go and have a look. I'll come too."
"Okay, okay, then let's invite Miss Seven to join us."
Li Gui felt that although the seventh lady looked weak, she was a young lady from the Li family after all. She must be a warrior and was just a corpse. The seventh lady should have seen a lot.
Although Li Gui misunderstood, Chang Yue had seen a lot of dead bodies.
So the group of people hurried towards the river where the body was found.
The river next to Lihua Village is not wide, but it is very deep. Children on Zhuangzi have drowned in it before.
The source of the river is in a big green mountain far away from Zhuangzi, but no one has ever been to that big green mountain in Zhuangzi, because there are many wild beasts living in it, and most people who go in will only have the fate of being devoured by wild beasts.
In the past, there were cases where wild beasts came down the mountain to attack people. Later, the Li Mansion sent people to clean up the area. Gradually, almost no wild beasts came out anymore.
When Chang Yue and the others arrived, the body had already been fished out by the villagers.
Probably because it had been soaked in water for too long, the body had swollen, and the appearance could not be clearly seen, but it could be vaguely judged that the deceased was a young man in his twenties.
The man was wearing a green t-shirt. One of his shoes had been lost, probably while rafting in the river. He still had a scabbard hanging on his body, but the knife was also missing. He looked like a man from the rivers and lakes.
Granny Feng pushed aside the onlookers and walked to the body to inspect it. Then she walked to Chang Yue and reported in a low voice:
"He should have died by having his throat cut. There was a very small cut on the deceased's throat, but his trachea was cut accurately."
Chang Yue nodded, then looked at Li Gui and said, "Everyone in the village has been careful lately. I don't know where this person came from. If it is a vendetta, it will easily affect everyone."
Li Gui nodded quickly, "Hey~ I will tell everyone to be careful."
Chang Yue thought for a while and then said: "It's better to throw this corpse back into the river and let it continue to float down the current, no matter where it floats, so as not to cause trouble to Zhuangzi."
Li Gui nodded quickly: "Hey~ I listen to Miss Seven."
After saying this, he ordered the villagers to throw the body into the river again.
Seeing that it was getting late, Chang Yue couldn't stay longer at Zhuangzi, so he left with Granny Feng and the others.
When passing the city gate, Chang Yue discovered that the porridge and medicine donation event organized by the girl Jin Shuangshuang was not over yet, but she was no longer there.
Back at the Li Mansion, Granny Feng went to set up the bullock cart, while Chang Yue took A Cai to her yard.
When I walked to the corner of the garden, I saw a little maid suddenly rushing out from the opposite side, and she happened to bump into Chang Yue.
"oops!"
The little maid screamed and the things in her hands were scattered on the ground.
After seeing clearly that the person she bumped into was Chang Yue, she saluted casually, "I've met Miss Seven. I bumped into you accidentally just now. Please forgive me."
After saying that, she squatted down to pick up the things scattered on the ground without even looking at Chang Yue.
Her attitude directly angered Ah Cai. The little guy pointed at the maid with a red face and yelled: "What kind of attitude do you have! Is this how you apologize for bumping into the master?"
Although he is small in stature, he is quite powerful when he scolds people. He is so popular that he is the true successor of the mother-in-law.
The girl raised her head and asked, "Then how should I apologize? How about I kneel down and kowtow?"
Although she said this, her attitude didn't look like she was kowtowing at all, but rather a bit aggressive, as if Chang Yue really asked her to kowtow, it would be such a shocking thing.
Hearing this, Chang Yue nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, then you kowtow to me and I will spare you."
The maid's eyes widened in disbelief, "I am the eldest maid next to the fifth young lady."
Changyue nodded and said, "I know, I also know your name is Caizhu."
"Then you still..." Caizhu said with a blushing face.
After Sang Ye came back from delivering medicine to Cang Yue Pavilion, he waited and waited for his lady to come back, so he planned to wait at the gate. When he was passing by the garden, he happened to see this scene.
"Miss!"
Sang Ye yelled and ran over, and Chang Yue said to her with a smile: "Sang Ye, I want Caizhu to kneel down and kowtow to me."
"okay!"
Without saying a word, Sang Ye reached out to grab the colored beads.
Caizhu was also a warrior, so she naturally didn't want to be captured without any help, so she turned around and avoided Sang Ye's hand.
"How brave, my lady asked you to kowtow, and you still dare to resist."
Sang Ye shouted loudly and slapped Caizhu with his palm.
Sang Ye's palm technique is called Baihong Palm, which he learned from Granny Feng, who learned it from Changyue's mother, Su Xueyuan.
This palm technique was used by Granny Feng to kill those bandits before.
Caizhu raised her arms to resist, but was slapped back by Sang Ye.
Caizhu was shocked: What happened to this mulberry leaf? Why did his cultivation suddenly become so strong?
In the past, Sang Ye's cultivation was indeed not as good as Caizhu's, but now with Chang Yue's massive investment of resources, her strength has surpassed Caizhu's.
Under Caizhu's horrified gaze, Sang Ye ducked behind her, grabbed her arm, and kicked her knees.
There was only a "pop" sound, and Caizhu fell to his knees heavily.
