Chapter 669: Chapter 669: The Drought Season Has Arrived
“Alright, alright, you lie down for now. Mother has sent Zhou Liang away. He won’t be coming over these few days. This good-for-nothing lad, can he not live without won for a day? Really…”
Liu Rui grumbled as she exited the room.
But upon hearing her words, Liu Yushui, who had just laid down, imdiately sat up in shock.
“Having not gotten any from , will Zhou Liang go in search of other won?”
The thought of this possibility was enough to induce cold sweat on her back. This was exactly the kind of thing Zhou Liang would do. If he indeed found another woman, what place was there for her?
“No, I have to look for Zhou Liang!”
The loss of their child was insignificant compared to the man Zhou Liang. She absolutely had to keep an eye on him. Otherwise, her life could be completely over.
…
Feng Lvzhi could not stay in the Lin Family ho, so Lin Caisang had her go to Manghuang Mountain to help gather wild fruits. This conveniently filled the void left by Lin Chushui, and also allowed Zhong You to have more ti to learn dicine.
Ti passed quickly. With Ya Molian’s company, Lin Caisang completed a few tasks, visited Yejun and Qianlin County, saw the thriving business of the assorted snacks and Scent Pavilion, and then returned.
The dry season was drawing near. Cracks had started to appear in the fields. The windmill made by Lin Baiyi and others on the Manghuang Mountain ca into use, tirelessly churning out water from the pond to irrigate rice and other crops day by day.
All usable water in the village was put to use.
Finally, having no other option, quite a number of villagers eyed the twenty-acre pond on Lin Caisang’s Manghuang Mountain, hoping to carry water from there for irrigating their own farms.
Clan Chief Lin was easy to handle. He was willing to negotiate with Lin Caisang for using water, and to avoid inconvenience, he also ntioned to the Lin Clan that there must be sothing given in return for using water. After all, they couldn’t expect Lin Family to just provide water for free.
After all, Lin Caisang had spent a lot of money digging that pond.
As for the Ya Clan, there were two mischievous gods in Clan Chief Ya’s house. In just a month, they beca famous figures in Ya Village, and no one dared to provoke them.
A few elders of the Ya Clan figured out that there was no point in troubling the Clan Chief over this matter. Instead, they invited Land Officer Uncle Jin to negotiate over the water issue with Lin Caisang. Along with a few elders, they planned everything without involving Clan Chief Ya.
Who told Clan Chief Ya to have such a severe dispute with the Lin Family? If he were to negotiate, he might just ss up things that could’ve been handled smoothly. No one was willing to take such a risk.
The issue of water usage was a big deal. Land Officer Uncle Jin and Clan Chief Lin agreed on a ti and, along with a few elders from the Lin Clan and Ya Clan, visited the Lin Family.
At this ti, Lin Caisang and Ya Molian had just exited from the Ya Family courtyard. Just as they were about to enter the Lin Family courtyard, they noticed Uncle Jin and Clan Chief Lin along with their party. Both parties halted their steps and observed each other.
“Sangsang, have you just returned from the county?”
After a long pause, Clan Chief Lin coughed lightly and, with a smile, addressed Lin Caisang.
“Mm.”
Lin Caisang acknowledged and glanced at Ya Molian.
“We just visited Brother Molian’s house to see the arrangents for the engagent ceremony before we were planning to return ho.”
Upon hearing her words, everyone rembered that their engagent ceremony was just days away. The courtyards of both Lin Family and Ya Molian’s house had been busy preparing for the event these past few days.
