Chapter 318: A Strange Scene

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Chu Qingzhi came out of the forest, she actually saw Wu Yaqing helping collect corn and green beans in the fields.

She was wearing a farm girl’s clothes and a straw hat. She had wrapped her face tightly with a thick scarf, leaving only two eyeholes. She was wearing… Bao Linjiang’s gloves. She looked like a thief. Her movements were clumsy, but she was especially enthusiastic.

Corn is cold-resistant, drought-resistant, and barren-resistant. The drought did not kill all the corn. There was still about half of it that could be harvested.

The Chu family had a large amount of corn, at least covering three acres of land. It was a big problem to harvest it all.

Chu Qingzhi placed the basket on the ground, plucked a leaf from the tree beside her, and blew on it…

A moment later, many monkeys ran out of the forest and rushed into the cornfield. Soon, corns were thrown into the baskets one by one.

She was no longer afraid of displaying her ability in front of the villagers. Ever since they saw her flying, they had already treated her like a fairy.

Wu Yaqing was stunned. “Ah!! Monkeys are actually helping us harvest the corn!!!”

She ran out of the cornfield, her eyes wide with shock as she watched the corn flying across the air and landing precisely in the baskets. “This is amazing.”

Chu Qingzhi walked over and asked with concern, “Why are you in the fields too?”

Wu Yaqing pulled off the scarf and said with a smile, “I want to help. Look at how hard Auntie and the others are working.”

Chu Qingzhi took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped Wu Yaqing’s sweat. “The sun is scorching. You’ll get sunburned. Go back and wash up and rest.”

Wu Yaqing looked at Chu Qingzhi, who was wiping her sweat, and said jokingly, “If you were a man, 1 would definitely marry you.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Stop talking nonsense.”

Wu Yaqing took the handkerchief from Chu Qingzhi’s hand and wiped her sweat before going home.

After Wu Yaqing left, Ning Yuting led the horse and the truck over. Ning Yuting had never done any farmwork since he was young and did not know how to pick corn, so he helped to transport the corn.

He was stunned when he saw corn flying in the fields. When he looked carefully, he saw many monkeys running between the corn stalks. He was shocked. “What, what’s going on?”

Chu Qingzhi said calmly, “I summoned the monkeys and asked them to help harvest the corn.”

Ning Yuting turned to look at her. “Qingzhi, you can even make animals listen to you?”

Chu Qingzhi said matter-of-factly, “1 cultivated a kind of music spell. When I play the music spell, the animals will be enchanted and obey my order.”

Ning Yuting gave Chu Qingzhi a thumbs up. “You’re amazing!”

Chu Qingzhi accepted all the praise. “It’s just so-so.”

Ning Yuting quietly went to load the corn.

Soon, the truck was full. Fu Bao could pull the truck back on its own. After taking two steps, Fu Bao saw that Chu Qingzhi did not follow it and stopped to wait for her. It was very intelligent.

Chu Qingzhi carried the basket, told her family that she was going back, and followed Fu Bao home.

Ning Yuting did not follow. He was very interested in the monkeys harvesting the corn and planned to stay and watch.

On the way, Fu Bao met Hou Fu. The two horses snuggled up to each other for a while before they went separate ways. They looked like a loving couple.

Coincidentally, Fu Bao was a male horse, and Hou Fu was a female horse. Ning Yuting was so rich, and the horse he bought was also a good horse. The two horses were very compatible in terms of appearance and breed.

Chu Qingzhi touched Fu Bao’s head and said in amusement, “Are the two of you intentionally making the single dogs in the village envious?”

Fu Bao neighed, as if responding to Chu Qingzhi.

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Since the two of you are so loving each other, when are you going to have a pony?”

Fu Bao looked at Chu Qingzhi and blinked its big eyes.

Chu Qingzhi was amused. “Are you still dating? You’re not married?”

Fu Bao trotted back silently and ignored Chu Qingzhi, looking somewhat dejected.

Chu Qingzhi kept smiling on the way back…

Shuiyun County.

Making mooncakes required a lot of ingredients. Shen Ruyue brought the villagers to Tongzi County and Suiyang County to buy some before coming to Shuiyun County.

Inevitably, she bumped into an acquaintance.

After buying the ingredients, Shen Ruyue got the villagers to transport them back. Then, she followed a servant girl to a small tea stall and sat opposite her.

This servant girl was called Han Xinyu. She worked in the Shen mansion and knew Shen Ruyue.

“Ruyue, are you doing well now?”

Han Xinyu sized up Shen Ruyue. The fabric of the dress was excellent, and she was wearing an expensive jade bead hairpin. Her earrings were also jade. The color of the bracelet was clear, and the quality was excellent. At a glance, one could tell that it was especially valuable. The boots came from the Cloud Boots Workshop in the county. It looked like Shen Ruyue’s life was much better than hers in the Shen family.

“I’m doing fine. Thank you for asking.”

Shen Ruyue thought to herself, “This Han Xinyu is a typical girl who looks innocent on the outside but is scheming and greedy on the inside. In Chu Qingzhi’s words, she’s a green tea b*tch.”

She had always wanted to find a widowed rich man to be his wife.

As a servant girl, it was unlikely for rich people to marry her, but it was possible for her to be the wife of a widowed man.

“Ruyue, I heard you’re going to marry Chu Xuhua?”

Han Xinyu had a motive to get close to Shen Ruyue. She had asked around and knew everything about Shen Ruyue.

The more she found out, the more envious she became.

Shen Ruyue was a woman who had been in prison, but she could actually marry a rich man. Most importantly, this rich man liked her very much.

Although the rich man was a farmer, his family was doing business. Not only did they make a lot of money every day, but he also had a younger sister who was a baroness, a rich brother-in-law, and a brother-in-law with a position in the army.

With how smart Shen Ruyan was, she would definitely be in charge of all the family expenses.

Moreover, her mother-in-law and father-in-law seemed to be very open-minded and treated her well. This was simply Han Xinyu’s ideal life.

She felt that she was better than Shen Ruyue in every aspect, but she was inferior to Shen Ruyue in every aspect. How could she not be jealous?

“That’s right. You’ve heard about it?” Shen Ruyue revealed a happy smile.

Han Xinyu dug her fingertips into her palms to maintain her composure. She pretended to be relaxed and said, “I heard it from Lu Tianlan. You know, she has a big mouth.”

“I didn’t expect her to spread the news of my marriage so quickly,” Shen Ruyue said meaningfully..
