Chapter 87: Lady Fortune

Captain Zhou naturally told Magistrate Lin everything that had happened here.

County Magistrate Lin listened and pondered for a moment.

No wonder she needed to borrow someone. It turns out she has such a weird family. The most pitiful thing is that she has such an... indescribable mother.

County Magistrate Lin came from a noble family, but he was born out of wedlock. His mother was always trying to win favor from her husband, and never treated him with the kindness of a loving mother. He had suffered a lot since he was a child, so after he got married, even though he had no children, he never thought of taking a concubine.

Now when I hear this, I can’t help but feel a little emotional.

The county magistrate's wife, Yang, knew his feelings very well and couldn't help but sigh, "It's hard for this child."

County Magistrate Lin said, "This young lady is much braver than I was back then. I was full of hope and tolerant, but she dared to tear off the painted skin."

"It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one," the county magistrate's wife sighed, "but she is so young and has lost her family. I'm afraid her future will be difficult. If we can help, let's help!"

They had already owed her a favor, and with her pity, County Magistrate Lin inquired about it several times, so the people in the county government office also took it particularly seriously and took the initiative to help perform the drama twice.

In the meantime, the auspicious day for groundbreaking arrived and the construction of the winery began. Fourth Uncle Tang would definitely keep an eye on it, and Madam Zhou would also be busy cooking for these people, so Qi Jing would accompany her to the town.

...

...

When I get to the town, I can also take the opportunity to do some private things, such as contacting the Cheng family. For example, the next step is to brew wine, which requires a lot more medicinal materials. I have to ask the pharmacy to help crush them, and I have to find a suitable pharmacy to avoid running out of stock or leaking the secret.

When she returned to the village after a busy day, she inevitably met a few people who would ask her a question. Only Grandma Sun and the others smiled when they saw her. It was obvious that she was very fortunate. She told everyone that it was a good thing that they divided the family in time, otherwise the man from the Tang family would have dragged her to death.

Since the family has been divided up anyway, there is no need to act anymore, so Tang Shiyue discussed the ending with the Lin family.

When she and Qi Jing went out in the morning, they happened to meet the second son of the village head, Chen Changsheng, and the youngest son, Chen Changqing, and drove over together. When they heard that they were going to the county government office, the two took the initiative to ask to go with them.

Four people entered the county government office and waited outside the ceremonial gate, not daring to say anything. At this moment, a young lady in formal attire and a veil hat, accompanied by two maids and two old women, walked in reluctantly, holding up her skirt slightly.

She wore a chest-length skirt with butterfly flowers and a shoulder-length white veil hat with delicate gold threads and small pearl chains hanging around the edges. The veil swayed gently as she walked, and her steps were like lotus flowers. In the eyes of Chen Changsheng and the others, she must have been a fairy who had descended to earth.

Tang Shiyue clearly heard them holding their breath, and their eyes didn't even move.

Then, she suddenly seemed to see something, stopped walking, walked quickly to her, lifted a corner of her veil, and called out in surprise: "Benefactor?" She held her hand: "Benefactor, you are here? It's really hard for me to find you!"

Then... Tang Shiyue was invited in.

In fact, this idea was proposed by Lin Qiaoqian.

This girl treated this as a fun game and planned it with great enthusiasm. Tang Shiyue was probably very happy that she could bring two more audiences to watch her performance. She performed with such sincerity that she beat all the young actresses in seconds.

Tang Shiyue kept praising her, and Lin Qiaoqian said happily: "I've been practicing for several days!"

Her maid Qingzhi also laughed and said, "The young lady has practiced on me for hundreds of times. Madam laughed when she saw it and said she was crazy!"

Tang Shiyue laughed and said, "Thank you so much."

Lin Qiaoqian said: "Then I can come and play with you later?"

"Sure," Tang Shiyue said with a smile, "We are just building a winery right now. When we are done, I will send a message to invite you guys to come over and play."

Lin Qiaoqian said happily: "Then it's settled!"

The Lin family quickly invited Qi Jing and the other two in for tea.

It was not until the afternoon that a carriage was sent to bring them back.

This time, the two sons of the village head served as witnesses, and the effect was unexpectedly good.

It was said to the public that Tang Shiyue had accidentally saved the only daughter of the county magistrate, and was recognized today, so she had the honor of meeting the county magistrate. The county magistrate personally interrogated Tang Yongli and cleared his name, proving that the other party had falsely accused him, and so on...

Those who didn't like her, such as members of the Tang family, of course gritted their teeth when they heard the news, wondering what was going on with this Tang Shiyue? Why did another person come to repay a favor? First there was Qi Xiaolang, and now there is the only daughter of the county magistrate. Doesn't she have anything else to do all day?

But most people, including Uncle Tang's family, the head of the village and the head of the clan, were extremely happy. They just felt that this incident was legendary.

Without any worries, they also re-established the contract. In addition to the 50% share of the profits for the clan leader and the village head, Tang Shiyue insisted on changing the share to 40% and 50%, that is, she and Qi Jing took 40%, and the fourth uncle Tang and his wife took 50%.

Uncle Tang and his wife refused to agree no matter what.

Tang Shiyue then stammered and told the story of how she had set up the scam.

Upon hearing this, Madam Zhou pinched her in anger and said, "You little kid! I haven't slept well for several nights! I keep thinking that if the county magistrate is unreasonable...what will we ordinary people do!"

Tang Shiyue hugged her arm and acted coquettishly: "I was wrong, auntie, I won't dare to do it again, don't be angry~~"

She was small, and looked especially sweet and soft when she acted coquettishly. Qi Jing coughed lightly and turned his face away. After a while, he couldn't help turning back, looking at her calmly, pinching his fingers. He always had an urge to... touch the hair of this little goblin.

Fourth Uncle Tang laughed and said, "Your aunt always told me that Yue'er is blessed by heaven and nothing will happen to her! In fact, she was so worried that she wouldn't listen to me during those two days. She would get scolded if I complained."

Madam Zhou laughed and spat at him, then said, "It would be great if Yue'er was our biological daughter."

Fourth Uncle Tang stopped laughing, looked at her, and sighed after a long while.

The couple did not blame her, but after arguing for a long time, they finally agreed to her and re-signed the contract. This time, Tang Shiyue was also included, and she and Qi Jing each held 20%.

Of course, outsiders don’t know what happens in private.

The next day, several women came to help Madam Zhou as usual. When talking about this matter, Madam Zhou smiled and said, "You don't know, Yue'er has always been very lucky. Whatever Yue'er is around, it will definitely be successful. Think about the snake tongue grass at that time! Others couldn't sell it for a penny, but Yue'er sold it for ten taels! For example, last time we went to the town to sell wine, we asked many people but it didn't work. But Yue'er asked and it worked!"

After hearing this, everyone agreed with it.

Especially this time, they would never think that the government could help them lie and think that Tang Shiyue really turned the danger into safety and that it was the blessing he had accumulated before.

A Qi Xiaolang and the daughter of a county magistrate, isn't that a great blessing?

Suddenly someone thought of something and clapped his hands: "Oh my, now I suddenly remembered that the Tang family has been in trouble one after another since they kicked Yue'er out. When Yue'er was at home before, there weren't so many things!"

"That's right!" Everyone thought about it and nodded repeatedly: "There is also the clan leader's house, which has been lived in by several generations, and there was no silver. But when Yue'er went there, she dug out silver. This is a great blessing!"

"Yue'er is truly a blessed lady!"
