When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 212: Women Can Also Be Village Chiefs

When Gu Hua returned to the villa and met Madam Qing and Jiang Ming who had been sent to the academy, he learned that the group of victims who voluntarily followed Scar and Madam Qing here to escape the war were still living in simple wooden sheds.

When those people came here, no matter they were honest and obedient or those cunning, lazy, and unreasonable refugees, they were all driven away by Madam Qing's shout.

After Chen Ling and Gu Chen left, Lin Mi and Uncle Yang, who took over the management of the farmland, and several managers went to build terraces. Another group of people followed to plant crops in the built terraces.

"Wait a moment." Gu Hua called Madam Qing.

Madam Qing approached and saluted, "Master Gu, I have something to tell you."

Gu Hua asked: "Are you used to living here?"

Although Madam Qing didn't know why Gu Hua asked this, she answered truthfully: "When we first came here, we were a little uncomfortable with the climate in both places, but after the disaster, everyone got used to the hardship.

It's very chaotic outside right now, and some of the people who came with us who were not used to making trouble were driven out by me and a few helpers. It's not safe in the mountains anymore, so we all decided to live here from now on."

Gu Hua could tell that among this group of disaster victims, who were accompanied by their acquaintances, there would definitely be some dishonest and trouble-making ones among them.

Looking at the woman who had gone through such an unbearable past but was still able to stand up strongly, with an even more determined look in her eyes, even Gu Hua admired her from the bottom of his heart.

So, Gu Hua pondered for a moment and said, "Next, I will send someone to Shuzhou City to find Master Mao, a house builder, to build a farmhouse for each of you families.

We will build a new village for you next to Shulin Village. It will be called Hope Village. From now on, you will be in charge of this village."

Madam Qing was stunned. She didn't expect Gu Hua to let her, a woman, be the village chief.

"Can I do this?"

Gu Hua saw Madam Qing's hesitation, smiled and nodded to her affirmatively: "Just based on your decisiveness in dealing with those who want to live a peaceful life with you and want to cause trouble. Drive them away decisively.

If you can do things cleanly, without dragging your feet, and be resolute and resolute, you can manage a village."

Madam Qing received Gu Hua's affirmation and raised her arm to wipe the corners of her eyes with her sleeve. She was a woman who had been insulted by evil people and was looked down upon by ordinary people.

Not only is she respected here, but she is also appreciated by Gu Hua, the man who has the final say here. Madam Qing feels that not seeking death because of being insulted was the most correct choice she had ever made.

"Okay, I will definitely help you manage this village full of hope." Madam Qing said with a firm look in her eyes.

Gu Hua nodded.

Madam Qing's steps as she left became more determined.

She thought to herself that she would not let Gu Hua down for his recognition and trust in her. In the days to come, she would lead people to turn this place into a granary for crops.

Afterwards, this woman who had been ravaged by the evil man and almost committed suicide, actually did what she wanted today. She solved most of the food and grass problems for Gu Hua's army and stabilized the rear.

Looking at the woman with a determined back catching up with the villagers to work, Gu Hua felt that strong women were really beautiful.

Then Gu Hua found someone who was arranging to use the method she wrote in the booklet to collect fertilizers from various rotten leaves, twigs, and feces on the mountain, and prepare to carry them over to spread on the already built terraces to fertilize the land.

"Niece, you're back." Gu Jikun, who had been busy leading people to work in the fields, saw Gu Hua coming and hurriedly came forward to say.

He knew that he was chosen as the manager of Shulin Village because he and Gu Hua were from the same clan. Otherwise, how could the Chen family, the Shen family, the Sun family, and some other prestigious families be willing to let him be in charge?

Gu Hua didn't have a good impression of the Gu family members, but during the exile, Gu Jikun and several other families finally chose to follow her, so she just protected them.

"Yeah, I came back last night."

Gu Hua then told Gu Jikun about the new village built by the disaster victims, and asked him to consult Madam Qing if he had any problems in the future.

Gu Jikun may have previously believed that women’s role was to stay at home and take care of their husbands and children.

But when he came into close contact with Gu Hua, he was so shocked by everything this niece of the clan did that he forgot that she was a woman.

Later, when he had to go to the third girl of the Shen family and Miss Zuo for help and money for building the village and other matters, he saw that the two girls did things in an orderly manner, could write and calculate, and would not compete with others when faced with ordinary things. They were restrained and better than ordinary men.

If he had heard that there was a woman serving as village chief in Jiangzhou before, he would have sneered at it.

But now, after a pause, Gu Jikun accepted that Madam Qing was managing a village just like himself.

The Shulin Village managed by Gu Jikun here has people brought by Zhang Shanhu, as well as a group of exiled people, so the number of people is quite large.

Gu Hua saw that Madam Qing was a very capable and resourceful woman. She cleverly used the fact that she had had contact with her before and had come here under the protection of Dagui, the manager of the villa, and successfully subdued the group of people who followed her.

She is efficient and decisive in her work, and she will ruthlessly drive away those who are disobedient and cause trouble. This is also what Gu Hua admires most about her.

If those disaster victims were put under the control of Gu Jikun's clansman, I'm afraid that Gu Jikun, who had not experienced the hardship of fleeing famine and had become ferocious, would find it difficult to have the courage to subdue these people.

It would be better to let Madam Qing take care of the nearly a thousand victims whose human nature has become unpredictable during the disaster. In this way, those people will have fewer conflicts with the people in Shulin Village.

Gu Hua passed by the school and saw children, both boys and girls, receiving education and studying inside.

Uncle Chen and Sun Chengfeng were arranged by Gu Hua to be teachers here, because he knew that their sons were recruited by Gu Hua to do big things, but he left these two old guys here to teach the children.

The two old men, who were nearly fifty years old, were not really angry.

But when he saw Gu Hua passing by the school, he snorted at her, expressing that although they were a little old, they were still very useful, okay.

Then the two middle-aged men quickly changed their expressions and stopped Gu Hua and pulled her into the room. They whispered and asked Gu Hua in a roundabout way whether she was going to do something big.

Gu Hua felt that there was nothing to hide from the two of them. After all, the sons of their two families had already boarded her ship. If they knew, they might be more dedicated to cultivating talents for her.

Uncle Chen and Sun Chengfeng were certain that Gu Hua had the intention to rebel, and they acted as if they had guessed it right...

After satisfying the curiosity of the two old men, Gu Hua strolled back to the villa.

From a distance, I could see the Qiao and Zuo families being stopped by the guards at the gate of the villa, clamoring to see Wu Ruonan, Qiao Yuandong, and Zuo Xianghan...

During the days of adjustment at the villa, Gu Hua was often called to give instructions on the construction of terraces, and he was still as busy as a grandson every day.
