After listening to their words, Ye Qingran agreed and said: "Even if I really give the money to the villagers so that they can have food and drink for a while, what will they do when I am not around in the future? It is better to give people fish than to give them food. If you don’t understand the principles of fishing, don’t they understand it too?”

These refugees who had fled were once honest farmers who had always relied on their own hands for food. Even if they were given money to sleep on their backs, they would still feel guilty.

Their ideas were very consistent with what Ye Qingran said at this time, and they all nodded.

Seeing that he was the target of public criticism, Zhao Zhiming began to retreat into the house.

Mother Zhao in the room had heard the commotion a long time ago, and she originally thought about it, but when she heard Ye Qingran's voice again, she knew that she would not be able to ask for help, so she stayed in the room and did not come out.

Even when Zhao Zhiming wanted to ask her for help, she waved her hand and refused to say anything.

The villagers were not stupid either. They had already seen that Zhao Zhiming was trying to sow discord by saying these words. The person who doesn't want them to live a better life is not Ye Qingran at all, but Zhao Zhiming.

"Miss Ye, this is not the first time that mother and son have caused trouble like this. Why not just drive them out of the village and not allow them to come back again. This will save a lot of trouble."

The villagers gathered together for a while and suggested to her.

Ye Qingran had such a plan early on, but because he had already put them in jail, he put the matter aside for the time being.

Now they are restless when they come out, so driving them out like this is indeed the easiest way.

But after thinking about it, she didn't do it directly. Instead, she called the villagers together and announced something.

"After careful consideration, I also thought that I would not be able to pay attention to the living conditions of the villagers all the time because I was outside for a long time, so I decided to select another person to be the head of our village."

As soon as these words came out, the villagers started talking about it. Many people thought that she was doing well as she was and they didn't feel comfortable leaving it to others.

But there are also some people who are eager to try and become the village chief.

Ye Qingran saw their attitude, but did not express any opinions. He just said: "In addition, I have hired some jobs for you near the capital, but they are basically hard work. You can consider giving it a try. , or you can stay in the village and wait for the food to mature."

Most people in the village want a stable income. Only in this way can they ensure a stable life.

So when they heard that they could find work, they didn't care whether it was hard work or not. What's more, they generally didn't know any words and could only do hard work.

"Those who want to do work can come to me to register, and I will make arrangements for you. Secondly, as for the candidate of the village chief, I plan to let you vote by yourself. In these two days, tell me the person you think is suitable. One vote, the one with the most votes is elected.”

After announcing these things, she began to get busy arranging the work.

The villagers first secured a job quota for themselves, and then went home with their own thoughts.

For them, being a village chief also has different rights, so they still want to fight for it.

After being busy, Ye Qingran took the time to go to the place where the assassin team was training to check on the training status.

Previously, a group of women were selected to join the investigation team, and the results were very good. Later, Ye Zhuoyu was asked to arrange some suitable women to join the assassin team to participate in training. Now it seems that the results are also very good.

Moreover, Ye Zhuoyu is very careful. The moves he taught to the assassin group were more suitable for men. After the women joined in, he studied some moves more suitable for women and taught them to them.

These moves do not rely on brute force to win, but rely on agile body skills. Although you may not be able to gain an advantage head-on, you can quickly find the enemy's weaknesses in a fight with your flexible body skills, and win with one blow.

Initially, those men looked down upon them, but after a period of training, several of them were able to win within a hundred moves in such a short period of time, and they were able to fight those men successfully.

If the training time is longer in the future, who is stronger is still a matter of debate.

Seeing this scene, the men in the assassin team never said anything about looking down on them. Instead, they trained harder. Under Ye Zhuoyu's guidance, the two sides began to learn from each other's strengths and help each other, creating a harmonious scene.

Ye Qingran was also very satisfied with this. He didn't expect that Ye Zhuoyu could think so carefully. He couldn't help but feel that his brother was really powerful.

Three days after announcing a holiday to the assassin team, Ye Qingran took Ye Zhuoyu back to the capital, planning to spend the winter festival with his parents and eat dumplings together.

While eating, Mrs. Jiang said hesitantly: "We heard that the second prince is dead, so Lian'er..."

In fact, she had wanted to ask Ye Qingran about this matter early on, but she was afraid of delaying her affairs, so she never asked.

We happened to be eating dumplings together today, so she had the opportunity to mention it. After all, it was best for the family to get together during the holidays.

After her reminder, Ye Qingran remembered Ye Yunlian.

In order to deal with the matter of Zhanranlou and the third prince these days, she had really forgotten about Ye Yunlian. It was not easy to give Jiang an explanation at this time.

The second prince apparently died in battle, so the servants in the mansion were not punished but dismissed, so logically Ye Yunlian should return to the village.

Perhaps because of fear of the Zhao mother and son, she did not return to the village, but she also did not tell them where she went.

"All the servants in the Second Prince's Mansion have been dismissed. Since she has not returned to the village, she must have her own ideas."

Ye Qingran thought for a while, "But it's snowing outside and very cold. I'll send someone to find her."

It has been snowing for several days, and the capital has turned completely white. Wherever you look, there are not many people hanging out.

In the alley at the end of the street, Ye Yunlian huddled up and was shivering.

After the death of the second prince, she didn't know who told her that all the servants in the palace would be buried with him. She ran out in a hurry and did not dare to leave the capital for fear of being interrogated, so she kept hiding in the capital until Now, I don't have any money left, so I can only sit aside and wait for the bun shop to close soon, so I can buy two cheap buns to cushion my stomach.

A few days later, she found that no one was tracking her, and she began to think about finding an opportunity to return to the village to find her parents.

But she didn't know that her parents and brother were sitting in the house, warming themselves over the fire and eating dumplings with Ye Qingran, whom she hated the most, and no one knew about her situation.
