Little Treasure picked up a bundle of mud and threw it at Jin Shan, “Thief! You accused others of being a thief when you are one yourself! You even climbed our walls! Be truthful, did you plan to steal our family’s vegetables?”

Jin Shan had wanted to avoid the incoming mudball, but it acted as though it had eyes. He could not evade and was covered in a face full of mud.

His eyes, nose and mouth were all blocked.

Everyone started laughing, even the Mayor was stifling his laughter.

Jin Shan wiped the mud off his face and shouted, “Outsider brat, are you seeking to die?”

This time, Little Treasure did not react, all he did was send a glance at his underlings. The kids soon imitated their Boss and started throwing mud at Jin Shan.

Jin Shan was covered in mud and fell into a sorry state.

“Lord Mayor. Even if their vegetables are well grown, their flour and such must have expired!”

Huan Qing Yan looked at Jin Shan, causing him to lower his head from a guilty conscience.

Huan Qing Yan brought them to the storehouse of the back courtyard.

The storehouse was extremely clean and dry, there was no strange smell within.

On the shelves made from wooden logs were several large bags of rice and flour.

The old Mayor inspected the items and confirmed that they were all incredibly fresh.

The rice was clean white and looked like crystals, and was also emitting a unique fragrance of Green Leaf.

As for the flour, they were soft and milky with no signs of clumping. When he grabbed the flour with his hand, he noticed that it lacked a coarse sensation, this meant that this was top-quality flour.

Huan Qing Yan spoke, “These are the rice and flour I bought when I moved into Nameless Town. It has been over three months, but we have stored everything really well. There should be no problems. What do you think?”

The Mayor nodded his head several times. The flour and rice inside here were much better than the ones he usually sees.

He was unable to notice that these were purchased three months ago as well. Also, it was not surprising to be able to store rice and flour for up to a year.

“This is absolutely fine, you can use it for a year. Okay, this old man has rashly believed in the words of others. I hope you can accept my apologies.”

Everyone started gossiping.

“Saw that? The vegetables that Sister grew and these flour and rice of excellent quality. Just by looking at it made me feel that the food increases the deliciousness of the food I ate.”

“Yes! No wonder they are so delicious. It is not surprising when you see such excellent ingredients being used.”

“Jin Shan that fella is undoubtedly jealous of others. Maybe Sister’s shop has robbed him of his business. How can a person be such a miser?”

“He is used to relying on his sister’s relations and getting things the way he wanted.”

The Mayor’s face turned ugly when he heard their conversations. This Jin Shan must have used him as a tool to advance his purposes.

The Mayor glared at Jin Shan before turning around to leave.

Jin Shan could not stay any longer as well, being covered in mud was more than enough for him.

He had wanted to grab one of the kids to give them a beating, but their parents were just next to them.

And their parents have also joined in to add more mud on him. He was only one man with two hands, it was hard for him to go against so many people.

The adults and children started to attack him, causing him to run away, following close behind the Mayor.

Huan Qing Yan brought everyone out of the courtyard and stood at the front entrance.

That was when she saw a mud-covered Jin Shan hiding at the street corner talking to his wife. The two of them were pulling at each other and seemed to be discussing something.
