Li Chuntao, although a bit simple-minded, is not someone without ideas.

If she were without ideas, she wouldn’t have moved her family’s land to Yang Family Village, nor would she have gone all out to lose weight.

There are some things that she has her own considerations for. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

She didn’t want to mention this matter and switched the topic as she remembered what she heard upon entering the village, "Enough about me, let me tell you something."

"What is it?" Xiaoxiao asked.

"Xiaoxiao, when I entered the village earlier, I heard the villagers gossiping about your family."

When Li Chuntao said this, Xiaoxiao wasn’t too surprised. Haven’t the villagers gossiped about their family enough? Ever since she came to this village, their family has always been the topic of gossip among the villagers, and she’s long used to it.

People are just bored after eating their fill, loving to talk about everyone else’s business. They aren’t particularly bad people, just simple country folks, "Oh, I’m used to it, people talk all the time, just like the two of us in Stone Village. Aren’t we frequently talked about too?"

Li Chuntao felt a bit embarrassed, but what Xiaoxiao said was true. However, she still wanted to give a reminder, so she continued, "Xiaoxiao, the villagers say your family has money now, the lads are all married or engaged and can’t be reached, but there’s that girl, your Yang Qiu. I think in the future someone might set their sights on Yang Qiu. You should be careful, don’t let someone marry Yang Qiu just for your family’s Silver."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao was shocked. She thought the gossip was no more than about their family’s fish pond, mountain, or how the kimchi pickle business was doing well financially. Maybe about Yang Dong and Yang Xiaocui’s recent business, but never thought Yang Qiu would be in the gossip mix too.

Li Chuntao’s reminder wasn’t without reason. Now that their family has money, many have their eyes on them. Speaking of the Yang Family, indeed all the boys are married.

The only ones unmarried are their Yang Dong and the fourth uncle’s son.

Now that Yang Dong is engaged and the fourth uncle’s son is still young, practically a grandson’s age, marriage is far off.

The Yang Family doesn’t have any other girls. When you think about it, it’s only Yang Qiu left!

Even though Yang Qiu has been married before and has a child, people might still target her family for money.

This matter really needs to be taken seriously!

"Chuntao, thank you! I really hadn’t thought about this. Thanks to your reminder."

"Who’s closer than us? No need for thanks." Li Chuntao only hoped she wouldn’t be blamed for meddling.

Xiaoxiao thought, since even Yang Qiu could become a subject of the villagers’ gossip, Li Chuntao, a rich young lady coming here, would certainly bring speculation. If she couldn’t help her with the matter involving Yang Dong, at least she shouldn’t let villagers spread rumors about her.

Thus, Xiaoxiao suggested, "Chuntao, you coming here will definitely make villagers curious, there will be speculation. If anyone asks, just say it’s business-related with me, about discussing what to plant on your family’s land next year. I’ll help spread this message in the village too."

With grateful eyes, Li Chuntao said, "Xiaoxiao, you really have a way. I’ve been racking my brain wondering for a reason to come to your village. I had no choice but to swear to my mother not to cause trouble and promised to find a husband’s family upon returning, then she agreed."

"..." Xiaoxiao was speechless; finding a husband afterward is indeed under duress.
