After the little cannon fodder was reborn, he chose the villain childhood sweetheart

"Xue Ling is really sensible."

Jiang Wan once again admired Xie Xueling's cleverness and understanding.

Xie Jing came back from outside at this time, but his expression was not happy. Instead, he frowned, as if he had something on his mind.

"Isn't your elder brother back? Why are you still looking so sad?"

Jiang Wan wondered.

Xie Jing sat on the bed and said worriedly, "Brother is back, but he doesn't look good. I don't know what happened to him outside. I asked him, but he didn't tell me."

Jiang Wan was silent after hearing this, and said, "Don't think too much, little brat. Go to bed quickly. If you stay up late and don't sleep, you won't grow taller."

Sure enough, as soon as she mentioned growing taller, Xie Jing immediately lay back down, covered himself with the quilt obediently, and fell asleep with his eyes closed after a short while.

Xie Xueling was also sleepy. She yawned, snuggled up to Jiang Wan and fell asleep.

Jiang Wan said to Jiang Weiran, "It's time to go to sleep," and then blew out the bedside oil lamp.

The next day.

When Jiang Wan woke up, except for Jiang Weiran who was sitting at the head of the bed, the other two children were all up.

"father."

She stretched lazily and greeted Jiang Weiran.

Jiang Weiran held the porcelain bowl and said with a smile, "Hurry up and wash up and eat. I heard a lot of noise outside. Are the people who are building the house here?"

"I gonna go see."

Jiang Wan put on her quilted coat, tidied her hair, and opened the door.

Many men came to work outside the yard. Among them, there were a few familiar-looking men who were busy working beside Uncle Xie. They were probably his three sons.

Xie Xueling ran over and said softly to Jiang Wan, "Sister-in-law, are you up?"

Jiang Wan looked down at her and found that Xie Xueling's face had become much rosier and her spirit was much better. She wondered if it was the effect of the Guyuan Pill. Since there was only one pill left, she would try taking one herself.

"Xue Ling, where are your elder brother and the others?"

"The eldest brother went to the mountain to look for the hunter Wang, and the second brother went to collect firewood."

Xie Xueling answered truthfully.

"Has Xueling eaten yet?"

"I've eaten! Sister-in-law, you should go eat too! Xueling has to help my fourth uncle and cousin move things!"

Xie Xueling is in high spirits and seems to be very energetic.

Jiang Wan thought that it was the Guyuan Pill that took effect, otherwise Xie Xueling, a little girl with thin arms and legs, would not be in such good spirits.

Although the family has been eating well recently, Xie Xueling has also gained a lot of weight. Her skinny cheeks have gradually become plumper, and her hair has become much darker and shinier.

But it was the first time that Xie Xueling's spirit was so abundant.

Jiang Wan saw that her hands were dirty and thought that she must have helped Uncle Xie and others with work a long time ago, but there was no trace of fatigue on her face.

"Xue Ling is awesome, remember not to tire yourself out."

Jiang Wan touched her fair little face.

Xie Xueling nodded with her eyes curved, then turned around and joined Uncle Xie and the others.

After breakfast, Jiang Wan looked at the progress of Master Wang and his team in building the kang. Master Wang and his two apprentices were working very energetically. He told Jiang Wan that he would be able to build the kang within three days.

The two collapsed thatched houses in the yard have been cleaned up. The village head brought two masters to measure the land and build the houses, as well as his three sons, and Uncle Xie's family, a total of nearly ten people helping with the work.

Jiang Wan went to the village head and expressed her request, hoping to find a dozen more people to do the work, and she was willing to pay.

The head of the village said, "Third girl, if we hire a dozen more people, the budget will probably be much higher than before."

Before, it cost about thirty taels of silver to build four houses. If we hire a dozen people to help and speed up the process, we would have to spend a few more taels of silver.

A few taels of silver were nothing to Jiang Wan now, so she agreed immediately.

"Li Zheng, you don't have to worry about the money. I hope the house can be built as soon as possible. If it rains or snows one day, I'm afraid it will delay the progress again."

The head of the village had an idea in mind and said with a smile: "Okay, I will go back and find a few capable men from the tribe. I guarantee that within half a month, we can..."

Before he could finish his words, a burst of angry, shrill curses came from outside the yard.

"Jiang Wan, you black-hearted little bitch! Get out here!"

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows, but she didn't react. The head of the village frowned and looked over.

Just then, Liu came in angrily with Jiang Yan'er, whose face was red and swollen. Behind them were Old Lady Jiang, Old Second Jiang, and Old Second Jiang's son Jiang Songxing.

The second son of the Jiang family and his entire family are here.

Liu continued to curse: "Jiang Wan! Are you still human?! Yan'er is your second sister! How could you let someone beat her! How could you bear it?! What did Yan'er do to make you hate her so much? If you don't give me an explanation today, this matter will not end!"

Liu's personality was not so strong, but she really couldn't stand what happened today.

Jiang Yan'er ran back with her face slapped red, crying and saying that it was all Jiang Wan's fault. She said that Jiang Wan not only beat her cousin Liu Ershun, but also instigated Liu Ershun to beat her. She asked Liu to take charge of the matter for her.

Recently, Liu has been treated like a workhorse by Old Lady Jiang at the Jiang family. Even if she wants to be lazy, she can't find an excuse.

As soon as Jiang Weiran and his daughter left, all the chores at home fell on the two women, Liu and Jiang Yan'er.

Jiang Laoer was not at home, and Jiang Songxing was a man and disdained to interfere in household chores, so Liu's mother and daughter had to take care of everything.

It would have been fine to let Liu serve the Jiang family, but the plague gods sent by Jiang Wan and Fang Zhong's family were not easy to deal with either, and they actually waited for Liu and her daughter to serve them.

Liu was already full of complaints, and when she was bullied by outsiders, her temperament changed.

She was full of complaints every day, and her resentment was greater than anyone else's, but she didn't dare complain to Old Mrs. Jiang and could only hold it in.

When Liu saw Jiang Yaner running back in such a mess to complain today, she completely exploded.

She wants to settle the score with Jiang Wan!

The hard life she is living now is all caused by Jiang Wan!

So Liu pulled Jiang Yan'er and called Old Lady Jiang. It happened that the Second Jiang was not at home today, so all the people in the Jiang family came to Xie Lan's house in a rage to settle the score with Jiang Wan.

Behind them were many villagers who were watching the fun.

It is the slack season during the farming season, and everyone has nothing to do after breakfast, so they just come to watch the fun.

After Liu finished speaking, she swept around the yard, turned around and pulled Old Lady Jiang forward, saying jealously, "Mom, come and take a look! Jiang Wan is really living a good life with our family's money! Look how many people have been hired to work? How many houses are being built? Where does the money come from?"

Old Mrs. Jiang took a look, anger evident on her face.

She tapped her crutch and looked at Jiang Wan with extreme hatred, as if Jiang Wan was some unforgivable evil person.

"Jiang Wan, you are worse than a beast! Not only are you disrespectful and unfilial, you even bully your sister! Look at what you did to Yan'er! Do you think you can just let it go? I'm telling you, it's not that easy!"

Old Lady Jiang stretched her neck and shouted, "Jiang Lao Si, if you are not dead, get out here! I really gave birth to a son like you in vain!"
