Early in the morning, when Qu Qiuning woke up, he heard a noise outside the tent.

When I walked outside, I saw the villagers surrounding the two carriages. Standing next to the carriages were Cheng Yi, Yun Feng, Qin Haoyuan, and Anye.

They all slept in the carriage last night. At this moment, they looked silently at the villagers around them who were talking at once.

"Look, this girl is quite capable. She brought back a few more men."

A gossipy woman in the village spoke to the villagers who were watching nearby, and then someone spoke up.

"Don't be fooled by that girl's dark face. She is quite good at seducing people."

"Yes, yes, look at these new men, they are all tall and strong, but also have delicate skin and tender flesh."

"Can she handle it alone?"

"Yeah, I don't know what kind of magic she used to seduce these men here."

"Also, look at that carriage. How could a woman like her afford to buy two carriages?"

"In my opinion, it is likely that they bought it with the money that everyone used to buy grain."

The person who said this was Gu Changsheng's mother, Liu Yuegui, who had long disliked this girl.

"No wonder the rice is so expensive. It turns out that they deducted our money to buy a carriage."

As everyone was talking, Qu Qiuning saw that the momentum made it seem like almost everyone in the village had come.

Qu Qiuning looked at this group of ignorant and stupid villagers. He had done so much, but in vain, he didn't get a single good word in return, and instead got himself into trouble.

Treat her as a soft persimmon and squeeze her however you want, right?

Qu Qiuning walked to Yunfeng, looked at the surrounding villagers, and said loudly;

"Whoever said I withheld your money, show me the evidence."

"Humph, what evidence do you need? Isn't this carriage the evidence?"

The person who said this was Qu Qiuning's grandmother Hua Lengmei. After she went into the city, she couldn't find Qu Qiuning, so she had to buy some rice and hurried back. On the way back, the rice was almost stolen.

"Give way, give way."

At this time, Pang Ya pulled her father out of the crowd.

Gu Qingshu stood in the middle and shouted, "Who is gossiping here? Who said Qiu Ning withheld money? Who is it?"

Gu Qingshu was so angry that his face turned blue. If Pang Ya hadn't run to tell him, he wouldn't have known that he was wholeheartedly protecting and caring about the villagers, but he didn't expect that the villagers would throw dirty water on Qu Qiuning who had done them a favor.

No one stood up for a long time, and Gu Qingshu took out a booklet and a piece of paper from his arms.

He held up the book, "This is the amount of silver collected from each household, it is clearly recorded here."

Gu Qingshu picked up the paper again and held it up. This was the purchase receipt for rice in Jincheng. Everyone can take a look.

In total, I received 28 taels of silver and brought back 30 taels of silver worth of rice and grain. May I ask where did Miss Qu deduct from me?"

Although Gu Qingshu said this, the villagers did not think that he had misunderstood Qu Qiuning. Instead, they felt that Gu Qingshu was deliberately favoring Qu Qiuning.

Her face showed disbelief and unwillingness. How could a little girl like her have the money to buy a carriage?

When they saw that Qu Qiuning and his group were wearing clothes that were in stark contrast to their patched clothes, they felt that as a native of Gujia Village, Qu Qiuning should share with the other villagers.

Qu Qiuning was extremely disappointed when he saw this group of greedy villagers. The so-called red eye disease was fully manifested among the villagers.

For so long, except for Gu Qingshu who stood up to speak for her, everyone else either remained silent or kept their heads down and whispered, acting as if Qu Qiuning was wrong and was sorry for the villagers of Gu's family.

"Are you still human? Do you know how hard it was for Sister Qiu Ning to buy rice and transport it out of the city?

You are still putting the blame on her, you, you..."

Pang Ya started sobbing sadly at this time.

"Pang Ya, stop talking," Qu Qiuning pulled Pang Ya behind him.

"It seems that someone is deliberately looking for trouble today, so don't blame me."

Qu Qiuning pulled out the three-pointed spike from his calf, held it in his hand, and looked at the villagers around him with cold eyes.

"I have brought the rice back to you, and Village Chief Gu has also distributed it to you. I, Qu Qiuning, no longer owe any of you anything.

Today, I, Qu Qiuning, am here to cut off all ties with the villagers of Gujia. You go your way, and I go mine. We will have no relationship from now on.

If anyone dares to say another word, I will kill her immediately.

Yunfeng, An Ye, pack up and leave. Anyone who dares to stop us will be killed.”

"Yes," Yunfeng and Anye answered in unison.

Qu Qiuning's strong sense of oppression made the villagers shut up. Seeing the shining weapon in Qu Qiuning's hand, no one dared to joke with their own life.

Qu Qiuning returned to the tent and started packing up. Seeing this, Li Xiuer and Qu Xiang also started packing up their things.

Soon, with so many people working so fast, they put the things into the carriage in just a cup of tea.

Qu Qiuning's group of fourteen people could just fit into two carriages, one for the women and one for the men.

Yunfeng was responsible for driving for Qu Qiuning. Song Yanfeng originally wanted to drive for Qu Qiu, but was forced to get off by Qu Qiuning.

Just as Qu Qiuning's carriage had moved a few steps, a voice calling came from behind the carriage.

"Sister Qiu Ning, wait for me,"

Qu Qiuning lifted the door curtain and saw that it was Pang Ya running over with a bag on her back, followed by Gu Qingshu, Pang Ya's mother, and Gu Nanxuan.

Fatty ran to the carriage and said breathlessly, "Sister Qiu Ning, don't leave me. I want to go with you."

Qu Qiuning frowned, "This is not good, do Uncle Gu and the others agree?"

"We agree, Qu girl, you can take her with you!" Gu Qingshu ran out of breath.

Fat Ya's mother also nodded repeatedly, "Qu Yatou, take Yaya with you! Yaya insisted on going with you, it's better to go with you than with us."

Fatty Yaniang finally realized that all the villagers in Gujia Village were selfish and there was no benefit in staying. If Gu Qingshu had not insisted on taking the villagers to Ning'an City, she would have wanted to follow Qu Qiuning.

"okay!"

Qu Qiuning had no choice but to pull Pang Ya into the carriage and arrange her to sit next to him.

"Yaya, you must be obedient, understand? Don't cause trouble."

Gu Nanxuan said loudly outside.

Fatty stuck her head out and said, "Brother, don't worry, you have to take good care of your parents, okay? We are one step ahead, you have to catch up with us as soon as possible!"

"Yeah!" Gu Nanxuan's eyes were red, hoping that his sister could arrive in Ning'an City safely.

Qu Qiuning's carriage set off. Gu Qingshu looked at the carriage going away and couldn't help but shed tears. He found himself becoming weaker and weaker, and tears fell every other day.

Not far away, Gu Changsheng's mother Liu Yuegui and Qu Qiuning's grandmother Hua Lengmei had proud looks on their faces.

Liu Yuegui spat on the ground, "Bah, you little bitch, what can you do? You were chased away by me. You are too young to fight with me."

Hua Lengmei looked at Liu Yuegui's smug face and chuckled.

I was sighing in my heart, this old woman is too easy to use, just a breath of wind and she can blow down a mountain.
