Hearing this, an unnatural smile flashed in Si Mubai's eyes.

Jiang Tuge was still immersed in the delicious food. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Simubai who had not yet moved his chopsticks, and couldn't help but said, "Husband, why don't you eat?"

"Don't say anything when you eat or sleep. Jiang Tuge shut up and eat!" Si Mubai said and started to eat.

Jiang Tuge curled his lips and said, "My husband, what you said is wrong. It is natural for men to do important things outside. But I am not a man, nor a gentleman. So even if I don't do what you said, no one can say anything to me." !”

"As the saying goes, only women and villains are difficult to raise. Husband, you think what I said makes sense!"

The chopsticks in Si Mubai's hand stopped in mid-air. He looked at Jiang Tuge helplessly, "Where do you get all these fallacies?"

Jiang Tuge smiled happily and looked at Simubai with a look of helplessness.

Si Jin, who was looking at the two people from the side, just took a mouthful of rice and said, "Mother, you are not a villain. You are an adult, a very big person!"

.........

Jiang Tuge glanced at Si Mubai, with a flash of annoyance in his eyes. Why did he forget about these two children when he was only busy arguing with Simubai?

She coughed lightly and reached out to wipe the rice grains from the corner of Si Jin's mouth, "Si Jin, what your father said just now is right! You can't talk during eating or sleeping. Talking while eating is not good for digestion."

Si Jin's little face was full of doubts, "Can't you speak? But didn't my mother speak just now?"

Jiang Tuge thought for a while. She really didn't know how to explain this problem to Si Shuo. She looked at Simu Bai looking for help, but Si Mubai didn't seem to see her.

Jiang Tuge twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, then looked at Si Jin, "I just spoke because I had something to ask your father."

"After dinner, mother will take you to study, okay?"

Hearing this, Si Jinle blossomed, "Okay, mother hasn't taken me to study for a long time."

Si Shuo on the side curled his lips and his eyes were filled with unhappiness. Jiang Tuge chuckled, "Si Shuo, what's wrong with you? My mother will definitely take you with her soon."

After hearing this, Si Shuo raised the corners of his lips and smiled.

After eating, Jiang Tuge took his two children to study. As for today's bowls and chopsticks, they were naturally handed over to Si Mubai.

"How about we read "The Thousand-Character Essay" today?" Jiang Tuge said and had already arranged the stools in rows.

"The Thousand-Character Essay? Mother, what is the Thousand-Character Essay? I've never heard you say it before." Si Shuo has read a lot of books with Jiang Tuge these days. The book she was talking about today, Never heard of it before.

Jiang Tuge tightened his eyes and explained as simply as possible, "Thousand-Character Essay, as the name suggests, is an article written with a thousand different characters."

"After you read many of the principles here, they will be of great use."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Tuge began to teach the two of them word by word.

Soon, the sound of reading could be heard in the courtyard of the Si family. Manager Li just happened to walk outside the Si family courtyard at this time. Looking at everything inside, he looked at Jiang Tuge with a bit of admiration in his eyes.

He knew that Jiang Tuge was from the capital, but at first he thought she was a lazy person. These days of contact really illustrate the truth that you can’t just look at people on the outside.

"Ms. Jiang!" Manager Li opened the door and walked in with a smile.

Hearing this, Jiang Tuge looked up and said, "Manager Li, please come in quickly. Do you have anything to do with your visit today?"

"Exactly, I do have something to discuss with you today!" Manager Li nodded. At the moment, the only person in Zhuangzi who could help him was Jiang Tuge. After inviting Manager Li to sit down, Jiang Tuge went to the cellar and filled a bowl of herbal tea for Manager Li.

Manager Li sat down and calmed down for a while, then sighed and said, "Today I went to the fields to take a look. This year's wheat ears are not just yellow."

"I went to neighboring villages and the situation was the same."

Jiang Tuge tightened his eyes and said in a deep voice, "It seems that there is indeed a severe drought."

"Yes, it's just that I don't think the neighboring villages have noticed this. I'm afraid that by then, the people there will have a more difficult time than ours!" Manager Li had a sad look on his face, and this year's events caught people off guard.

…………

After a moment of silence, Manager Li changed the subject, "By the way, a few days ago I saw the herbal tea you made being taken to a nearby village by Sun Gongshi's family and sold."

"I heard that these villagers are all praising you! I didn't expect that you sold it to them for two cents a pot."

Jiang Tuge raised the corners of his lips, "Yes, with this herbal tea, let's let everyone live first, and then we can talk about the rest."

"Exactly, it's useless to say anything if you don't have a way to survive!" After Manager Li said this, the two of them were speechless again.

Just when Jiang Tuge was thinking about what to say to break the atmosphere, there were waves of shouts outside the door.

Manager Li's face darkened, and he murmured to himself, "What's going on? Something important happened, and you're so out of control."

Jiang Tuge followed Manager Li and walked out, but as soon as he reached the door, he was blocked by Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, "Tuge, something happened!"

"Oh? What happened?" Jiang Tuge knew that these two cats would not lie to him, so he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Xiaobai meowed, "We just came back from the south. There is a village there called Changxing Village. The people there seemed to have discovered that there was no water, so they intercepted a water source."

"Water source?" Jiang Tuge's eyebrows twitched, "What water source? Can you two hear clearly?"

Xiaobai looked at Jiang Tuge and said, "We don't know what kind of cloud river it is. Anyway, people in Changxing Village are using water from this river to water their fields!"

Hearing this, Jiang Tuge suddenly became flustered. The people in Yunzhuang also use the water from the Yun River to water their fields.

Now that the people in Changxing Village are doing this, they are undoubtedly cutting off the livelihood of the people in Yunzhuang, or in other words, forcing them to die.

Jiang Tuge hurriedly ran out. This matter was indeed a big deal.

She walked all the way south, and sure enough, she saw Manager Li standing and talking with a group of young juniors on the south road.

The expressions on each of their faces were very ugly, and they even pointed at Changxing Village in the south and began to curse.

"Manager Li, the people in Changxing Village are simply bullying us. They changed the river course without permission. How can we, the people in Yunzhuang, live?"

"This simply doesn't leave us any way to survive. Uncle, we can't let the people in Changxing Village bully us like this."

"That's right, our Yunzhuang is not an ordinary Zhuangzi. To put it bluntly, there are many more people in our Yunzhuang than in their Changxing Village."
