Su Yunwan discovered that after one night of seepage, the well was only half filled.

According to the estimated number of people occupying the place last night, it was barely enough for their own people.

However, not far away, there were thousands of soldiers who needed to replenish water.

Water is the source of human survival. When Su Yunwan was stocking up, he accumulated a large amount of water resources in space.

During the recent water shortage, with her quiet replenishment, the Qin family did not lack drinking water.

But others, like the refugees, are increasingly facing water shortages.

The current deep well is an extremely rare and valuable water resource nearby, and perhaps the soldiers should be allowed to seize it.

What is owned by no one can be obtained by anyone, depending on who is more powerful.

A few rooms away in the main hall, Qin Junyi had the same considerations. As soon as he raised the matter, he received support from Zhong Wei and Chu Shao.

The soldiers were well-trained and numbered in the thousands, so it was easy to capture the deep well.

It's just that Qin Junyi has been pursuing the concept of "not competing with the people for profit" for many years. In the past few years, every time he regained a city, no matter how difficult it was, he would strictly restrain the soldiers and generals and not rob the civilians of anything.

Soldiers are soldiers, and bandits are bandits. Under his command, there is no room for any soldiers and bandits to survive.

The current order of things does not include the law of the jungle, and he can actually understand people's fight for deep well water resources.

After all, the essence of war is to obtain and maintain the court's status and economic interests.

But Qin Junyi was a military general, but he was not warlike.

It is his ideal and ambition to maintain peace on one side, ensure that the people live in peace and contentment, and that the country is peaceful and the people are safe.

Qin Junyi repeated what Su Yunwan said, and finally said: "If they give up the passage, they will make a decision based on the water storage situation of the soldiers after they go out. But if they don't give up, then I will send an order to the soldiers to launch an attack." "

Chu Shao and Zhong Wei looked at each other and had no objection.

Afterwards, Qin Junyi left the two of them to eat together.

Since Su Yunwan was a twin, she became a key target of protection, and the shadow guards would deliver food to the room for consumption.

Today's breakfast is multi-grain porridge with pancakes. Compared to others, she has two more fried eggs and a bowl of ginseng soup, which is the only one in the Qin family.

Just as she was chewing her meal carefully, a woman's exclamation came from the backyard, and then many sounds such as crying, cursing, and persuasion were intertwined, making it noisy.

Just now, everyone in the Qin family gathered in the backyard to have a meal.

During the dinner, the old lady coughed several times from time to time, causing everyone to look at her secretly.

At that time, Mrs. Lin was ordered by the old lady to stand beside her and serve the dishes. Every time the old lady cleared her throat, Lin's body trembled.

After several times, she accidentally knocked over the dishes and the soup poured all over the old lady.

The old lady was extremely displeased with Mrs. Lin, so she thought she was deliberately causing trouble and immediately hit her with a stick.

Qin Ruoshan, who was closest to Lin, immediately stepped forward to defend her mother. In her panic, she knocked over the wooden stool. After being hit a few times, she was protected by her brother Qin Junyu, who was a step behind.

Qin Junyu did not dare to snatch the old lady's crutch, and could only bear the old lady's critical blow with his back.

Seeing that he and Qin Ruoshan, brother and sister, had once again suffered as mothers, the old lady felt that it was because of their protection that Lin's arrogance would become higher and higher. He ignored Qin Junyu as a descendant of the Qin family and continued to beat him violently.

Seeing that the old lady didn't stop, Ms. Lin couldn't bear to see her son suffer. She wanted to step forward to resist, but was pulled back by her husband, the fourth master, and his daughter, Qin Ruoshan. The three of them knelt on the ground and begged the old lady to calm down.

Several other newly joined sons and daughters did not dare to disobey their grandmother, and just kept on admonishing her with soft words.

The whole situation was a mess.

Qin Junyi, who was waiting for guests, his cheeks trembled when he heard this, and he glanced at Wu Shaohan, who was waiting outside the room.

Wu Shaohan immediately went to the side hall. With his strong intervention, the old lady stopped and accused Lin of being resentful and waiting for revenge.

Lin, who was kneeling on the ground, choked with sobs and defended: "My daughter-in-law never meant this. It's because you keep coughing, I'm afraid you have an epidemic."

"How dare you curse me!" The old lady was furious and hit her with a stick.

Having lost her servants to serve her, she is no longer an old princess who just needs to give a light command and someone will carry out the punishment.

Along the way, she no longer cared about her former dignity and turned into a common mean old woman. She would personally beat her daughter-in-law whenever she disagreed with her.

In the past, Mrs. Pei was in front, and Mrs. Lin was accustomed to lying down and being small, and she did not suffer much physical pain.

Now she has become a thorn in the old lady's side, a thorn in her flesh, and she is doomed.

Last night, the old lady ordered her to keep vigil and made things difficult for half the night. Today, the dishes were knocked over again, and the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became more and more serious.

Wu Shaohan stopped the crutch and turned to ask Doctor Hua to come and see the old lady.

Soon, Doctor Hua, who was dining with other shadow guards, came after hearing the news.

After some inquiring, it was determined that the old lady was also infected with the epidemic.

When the news reached Qin Junyi's ears, he could no longer sit still and asked Chu Shao and Zhong Wei to help themselves.

Chu Shao and Zhong Wei said they were full and left.

Qin Junyi rushed to the side hall to see the old lady. As soon as he appeared at the door, he was stopped by the old lady who was leaning on her seat: "Don't come in! Brother Yi, stay away from your grandmother. Don't get sick."

Qin Junyi's eyes turned red instantly and he said hoarsely: "Grandma, please relax, we have special medicine at home, you will definitely be fine."

"What special medicine?" the old lady asked doubtfully.

Doctor Hua took out the jade bottle and poured out one: "This is it. Please take it immediately."

The pill in his hand was light green in color, with a faint flash of light, and exuded an alluring fragrance. At a glance, one could tell that this medicine was not extraordinary.

The old lady felt a little at ease. After taking the pill, she glanced coldly at Mrs. Lin who was still on the ground: "Mrs. Lin, it's up to you to take care of me."

The color in Mrs. Lin's cheeks instantly faded, and she shook her head in panic: "Mother, my daughter-in-law is injured and I'm afraid she won't be able to take good care of her. Please let the Zhao sisters serve her."

"You want to hide away again!" the old lady gritted her teeth.

Mrs. Lin hurriedly turned to look at Qin Junyi and asked for help: "Brother Yi! The fourth aunt has been beaten with a stick several times and her body is in terrible pain. She really can't take care of her mother anymore."

Before Qin Junyi could say anything, the old lady snorted coldly: "Then let Shanshan come!"

Lin froze immediately, then turned back inch by inch, meeting the old lady's proud eyes with disbelief.

Qin Ruoshan took a step forward, blocked Mrs. Lin behind her, suppressed all her emotions, and held out her hand calmly: "Grandma, I will help you go back to your room to change clothes and rest."

"Okay, good boy, don't be imitated by your mother. She's full of pettiness and has no sense of responsibility..." The old lady put her hand on Qin Ruoshan's wrist and walked out, scolding Mrs. Lin.

Qin Ruoshan lowered her head, neither objecting nor agreeing, and pursed her lips into a straight line.
