Mu Chaoge just entertained his uncles and aunts, and made sure they had good food, drinks and fun. Everyone was very happy. The weather was hot, and the farm was located in the mountains, which was indeed much more comfortable than the city. The stream was also cooler than the lake in the yard.

Living water is definitely different.

Uncle Cai also soaked a lot of watermelons in stream water, and brought them up when they came back from watching the road construction.

It was also the first time for several uncles and aunts to watch how the road was built up close and they said it was very new.

"Chaoge did a great job on this!"

"That's right, no wonder everyone is praising it, this is a great thing."

"It will benefit everyone!"

"It is right to do good and accumulate virtue."

When my uncles and aunts came back from the road construction, they kept praising the place all the way.

When the villagers who were building the road heard that they were the third young lady's uncles and aunts, they also contributed money. Their attitude was so nice that they flattered Mu Chaoge's uncles and aunts, and they asked for another 100 taels of silver each.

Mu Chaoge also thanked his uncles and aunts on behalf of the villagers and happily accepted it.

When Uncle Cai saw them coming back, he quickly asked Zhang and the others to serve the watermelons soaked in stream water, which were freshly cut and eaten to make them fresher. He also added some snacks.

Mu Chaoge also asked Sister Dujuan to bring the chessboard and other playthings.

Invite uncles and aunts to play together.

"It's a rare visit, so just have fun. It's not like you can do this every day, right?"

When Mu Chaoge told his uncle and aunt about this, they also thought it made sense, so they started to have fun.

Her new yard was beautifully renovated. In addition to the big teahouse, there were many pavilions. She placed some fruits and snacks in the pavilions and hung bamboo curtains to block the sun. She could play there, enjoy the scenery, and feel the breeze. It was very comfortable.

The old grandmother didn't wake up until the afternoon, and as soon as she woke up she came over to join in the fun.

Everyone had a great time for two days.

It's time to get back to work.

The old lady was also taken away by several uncles and aunts, who insisted that she go to the old house to reminisce about her childhood, after all, it had been renovated.

Some places are still different.

Lu Xingzhou also persuaded his old aunt to go back, and Old Madam Mu was still tempted.

The last piece follows.

Feng also asked Mu Chaoge if he wanted to go back and stay for a few days. "It's just right to be with your grandmother?"

Mu Chaoge just shook his head, "Forget it! I still have a lot of things waiting for me at the farm."

She counted on her fingers for her aunt, "Look, I have to keep an eye on the fruit wine. The sweet potatoes will be harvested soon, and I have to get some dried sweet potatoes. The last batch for my uncle just came out, and I have to rush to deliver goods to Uncle Qiao. Although I can be away from the processing plant, I have to check on it from time to time, and I can't leave the road construction alone."

Mu Chaoge still had a lot of things he wanted to do, so he decided not to disturb his uncles and aunts for the time being.

Feng felt overwhelmed when she heard this, "You are busier than me every day."

She gave her a reproachful look, then hugged Mu Chaoge and whispered to her to take a rest, "Don't be too tired. You should save some things, but you also have to take care of yourself."

Feng's vague words made Mu Chaoge alert, and he approached his aunt and asked, "What news have you received?"

Feng immediately said no, "If the world is really going to be in chaos, would your uncle and I hide it from you? Just do what you want to do, I want you to not work too hard."

Even if things really get chaotic, she and Lu Xingzhou will be able to protect her.

Mu Chaoge couldn't help but smile sweetly, hugged Feng and said coquettishly: "Uncle and aunt are the best!"

But she was thinking, her uncle and aunt can indeed protect her, but what about her farm? What about the people on the farm? She has to protect them too.

Before leaving, Feng comforted Mu Chaoge, "Don't be afraid, there won't be any chaos in the next three to five years."

Mu Chaoge felt more at ease. She also remembered that the original plot did not say that the world would be in chaos. It was just that she had heard some rumors before, and she was afraid that the plot had deviated from the original, so she was always worried about this and that.

However, Feng said that there would not be a major chaos within the next three to five years, but he did not say that there would not be a minor chaos.

The days pass by.

Mu Chaoge also heard some rumors that there was unrest at the border recently.

I also heard that there were floods everywhere.

It should be said that everyone nearby has heard about it. The biggest impact is that the grain harvest this autumn has decreased significantly, grain prices have skyrocketed, and the grain tax here has also increased a lot.

When Uncle Cai heard that he had to pay 40% grain tax, he was so worried that he couldn't sleep for several days. "Oh, oh, oh, what are we going to do for the autumn and winter harvests this year?!"

I'm just looking forward to stocking up more food.

The farm is no longer what it used to be. There are so many mouths waiting to be fed.

Zhang and Little Zhang were also talking about the flood in the south. "Why is there so much rain when autumn is almost here? Isn't this normal?"

"The heavens can change their minds at any time. The people in the south are in trouble!"

"Which year was smooth sailing? Aren't there always places that were hit by disasters?"

Zhang and Little Zhang are very open-minded. After all, they are experienced people and have seen a lot. The tax here is just a little higher now, but at least they can still save some money.

There were also difficult times before Mu Chaoge came to the farm.

"Now that you, Miss Third, are here, our lives have gotten much better."

"That's right. If that doesn't work, I can reduce it to two meals a day. That's still much better than before."

Zhang and Little Zhang even took their own rations, and the other women actually echoed them, "That's right." "Not starving to death is a blessing."

Mu Chaoge was making dried sweet potatoes at the moment, and told them not to worry after hearing this, "Don't worry, our summer harvest is enough for us to eat until the beginning of spring. The autumn and winter harvests combined will be enough to last until the summer harvest next year."

How can you starve?

You must eat enough if you can, otherwise how will you have the energy to work?

Especially on the farm, all the work is hard labor.

Because Mu Chaoge is the master, he doesn't have to do any heavy work, but he still feels very tired. However, the work that other people do every day is not easy.

You can imagine how hard it is to beg for food in the fields.

It is true that every grain of rice is hard-earned. It is really pitiful that everyone is so tired but still cannot get enough food.

Mu Chaoge would try her best to ensure that everyone had enough food. She told them not to worry, "If we really have to save on food, we'll talk about it then."

Definitely not in the short term.

Mu Chaoge now remembered what his aunt-in-law had said before, that there would not be a major chaos within three to five years, but now he had already sensed a few signs of it.

In such turbulent times, some people starve to death on the roadside, while others make a fortune.

Mu Chaoge only knew that her uncle's business was not greatly affected, and was even quite stable. Her own toiletries were temporarily affected a little, but it was okay.

Many wealthy people noticed the signs and started to save money.

But that's okay.

Mu Chaoge was able to continue her business. While renovating the farm, she also began to keep some reserve funds instead of investing all of them into the farm renovation as before.
