Dressed as the villain's stepmother
Chapter 145
Jiang Lianzhu nodded and followed Zhao Ruyang into the village.
The Zhao family's house was at the very back of the village, and it took a full half-quarter of an hour to walk there.
There were several aunts chatting outside the house, and they were all surprised when they saw Zhao Ruyang.
"Ruyang, didn't you follow your sister into the city before? Why are you coming back to our village to suffer now?"
"With your sister's medical skills, you can definitely live a good life in the city. Why do you want to go back to the village and fight for food with a group of us?"
"Tsk... I brought back another oil bottle. You really don't know that the food harvest in our village is not good. The ones sold in the store now are all shipped from the neighboring village. I guess It will be sold out in less than two days.”
Zhao Ruyang followed Zhao Ruyue out of the village some time ago and came back to pack some things.
They all thought that the two siblings were planning to seek refuge outside. After all, the Zhao family in the village was unable to survive the famine and had already committed suicide by drowning in the lake a few days ago.
After his death, even the group of people with the Zhao family were looked down upon by the people in the village.
Zhao Ruyang glanced at the aunts in front of him and didn't say anything in response. He was silent for a while before speaking.
"I am returning to the village to do business. If this business is successful, there will be no more famine in our village."
The reason why he and Zhao Ruyue went to the city.
It was because the people in the village blamed the two of them for the mess left by Zhao Lizheng.
They really couldn't survive in the village, so they went to the city to use their medical skills in exchange for a chance of survival.
"Tch, with the way our village is now, there's no good business to be done, so don't let your imagination run wild here!"
The aunt sneered again, not paying attention to what Zhao Ruyang just explained. She had already left the village and had lived a good life. Now she came back, wasn't it just to humiliate them.
He also looks like a pitiful person, which makes people dislike him just looking at him!
Zhao Ruyang did not speak, and allowed those people to laugh at him. After they left, he turned to Jiang Lianzhu with some embarrassment: "Miss Jiang, I just made you laugh."
"It's okay, let's talk after we go in." Jiang Lianzhu pursed her lips.
At present, she only knows that there is a famine in the village, but she knows nothing about other things.
But if the people in the village have the same temperament as those aunts just now, then it will be difficult for her to succeed in business this time.
The two people quickly entered the house.
Zhao Ruyang moved the medicine basket stored in the corner, picked out a few herbs and placed them on the table.
"The herbs grown in our village are probably of this quality. Girl, let's see if they suit your liking."
Jiang Lianzhu picked up the herbs on the table, pinched the stems with her fingers, and repeatedly played with the leaves that grew out, and then put them down after confirming that there were no insect holes.
The quality of the herbs that Zhao Ruyang gave him was very good, even better than those grown in the village's medicinal fields.
"There is no problem with the quality of these medicinal materials. It's just that your village is like this now. Can you supply me with a certain amount of medicinal materials on a regular basis?"
Jiang Lianzhu asked, pointing out the current trouble to the point.
She was somewhat sympathetic to the villagers' experiences, but that didn't mean she would relent.
"Yes, those aunts just now are the most radical people in the village, and there are some honest ones who stay at home. I have greeted them before, and they are all willing to exchange herbs for money."
Zhao Ruyang affirmed, staring up at Jiang Lianzhu, fearing that she would give up cooperating with them.
Seeing that Jiang Lianzhu did not answer him immediately, Zhao Ruyang followed up: "And the price is all determined by Miss Jiang. We will not object!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a movement outside.
Jiang Lianzhu made a gesture to Zhao Ruyang, walked to the door and put her ears close.
"I heard that Mr. Wang's daughter has fallen in love with a man from outside the village. It is said that the man is handsome and has a lot of money and dry food with him. This is really a bargain for their family. It’s on fire!”
"Isn't Mr. Wang's daughter already over thirty? Lian Lianke has lost several husbands, and she just took her son to her parents' home a few days ago."
"Yes, but in the future you must never say anything like this to the public. With her fierce energy, if she hears what the few of us say, there will definitely be no good consequences!"
A group of aunts were talking non-stop, with some mockery in their words.
After Jiang Lianzhu heard this, she looked at Zhao Ruyang: "Is there another Mr. Wang in your village?"
"Here, this man also moved from outside the village some time ago. He said that he was a scholar who failed the examination. When he moved here, he brought a lot of food, as well as a daughter and grandson who had returned to his parents' home."
Zhao Ruyang thought for a while before answering.
When Mr. Wang came to the village, he brought a bunch of grain and sold it to the villagers at a very low price. He was naturally grateful for this.
But he always uses some underhanded tricks behind his back to continuously supply food to the villagers, while at the same time driving up food prices behind his back, but not many people understand this.
Jiang Lianzhu nodded and continued to listen to those people.
"I heard that the man he fell in love with came from the capital. He seemed to be called Liao... He was really handsome. He was only just a year old. Such a good man showed up to that woman. It’s really a crime!”
The expression on Jiang Lianzhu's face suddenly changed. The conditions mentioned by this person just now matched Liao Yunchuan's, and they were exactly the same.
Liao Yunchuan followed him for a while this time. Maybe the person they were talking about was——
"Miss Jiang?" Zhao Ruyang looked at her face and called her tentatively, "Are you feeling a little unwell? I'll bring you a bowl of water."
"I'm fine. It's just where the Mr. Wang you just mentioned lives. I might want to talk to him about something." Jiang Lianzhu looked at Zhao Ruyang and tried her best to suppress the eagerness on her face.
She didn't know what Liao Yunchuan's situation was now. With his martial arts, there wouldn't be any big problems, but she was inexplicably worried.
"Ah, I'll just take you there now."
The Zhao family's house was at the very back of the village, and it took a full half-quarter of an hour to walk there.
There were several aunts chatting outside the house, and they were all surprised when they saw Zhao Ruyang.
"Ruyang, didn't you follow your sister into the city before? Why are you coming back to our village to suffer now?"
