Chu Second’s eyes immediately lit up with admiration. “Being knowledgeable is indeed a good thing.”

Chu Qingzhi held Chu Second’s hand. “Second Sister, if you want to learn to read, I can teach you.”

Chu Second’s eyes lit up, but they quickly extinguished. “I’m already so old. It’s not suitable for me to learn.”

Chu Qingzhi encouraged, “It’s not too late to learn. I’ll teach you to write your name tonight.”

Chu Second smiled. “Okay.”

When others heard the sisters’ conversation, they were secretly envious. They also wanted to study.

In this era, studying was the most noble thing.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, “There’s water, there’s water!!!”

There was water coming out of the one-meter pit dug by Tang Jinghong. When they saw this scene, everyone instantly admired Chu Qingzhi. Not only could she read and write, but she could also use what she learned. Now that they had found a water source, the village was out of trouble!

At the thought of this, many people suddenly felt guilty. Just now, they were still forcing Chu Qingzhi to take out the formula for making ice.

They were wrong, very wrong. They would never do that again.

The village chief was also surprised. “This is very likely a tributary!” Even the most capable water seeker couldn’t do this. To be able to find the tributary, Chu Qingzhi was indeed capable!

The village chief bowed to Chu Qingzhi, who accepted it calmly.

The village chief said solemnly, “Qingzhi, don’t take what the villagers said just now to heart. Now that you’ve helped us find a water source, you’re our benefactor. Now, the entire village owes you a favor. The same thing will never happen again.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “I only have one request. I want you to be reasonable in the future.”

The village chief quickly said, “I’ll let them behave themselves in the future.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Find a few more people to dig it. It’s best if we can dig a ditch and channel the water to the village.”

The village chief immediately made the arrangements. The people were motivated and efficient. When it was dark, the water was channeled to the village.

Water kept coming out of the water source, and everyone’s water problem was resolved.

When Zhao Xiuhua saw this scene, she recalled what Chu Qingzhi said about chasing her out of the village. She fainted from the panic attack.

Zhou Qingzhong quickly ran towards his mother. “Mother, Mother…”

This reminded the village chief. “Zhou Qingzhong, your mother can’t stay in the village anymore. Go back and pack up and send her away.”

When Zhou Qingzhong heard this, he was so anxious that he knelt down to the village chief and begged, “Village Chief, please show mercy. Don’t chase my mother out of the village. She’s already so old. Where can she go?”

The village chief hardened his heart. Chu Qingzhi had just made a huge contribution to the village, so he must not disappoint her. “Your mother is vicious. If she stays in the village, I’m afraid many bad things will happen.”

Zhou Qingzhong hurriedly said, “Village Chief, my mother will change. She will change. I promise you. Don’t chase her away, okay?”

The village chief scolded mercilessly, “Who are you to make a promise? You’re not a good person either.”

Zhou Qingzhong blushed in embarrassment. Being scolded like this in public, he lost all his dignity as a man. “Village Chief, I’ll change. I was insensible in the past. I won’t do that again.”

Chu Second touched Chu Qingzhi’s arm and whispered, “Qingzhi, are you really going to chase Zhao Xiuhua away?”

Chu Qingzhi replied softly, “Let’s wait and see.”
