Xiaowu ate less than half of the seafood on the whole table. If Jiang Hongyu hadn't stopped him, he would have even wanted to eat all the seafood on the table.

"It turns out that this crab is so delicious." Xiaowu chewed a crab claw in his mouth, sucking the flavor inside, but his eyes were looking at Jiang Hongyu.

"Although these seafoods are delicious, they are relatively cold. You didn't grow up by the sea. If you eat too much of them, be careful of stomachache tomorrow." Ye Mingzhu didn't expect Xiaowu to like seafood so much.

"You're just trying to scare me. I see you've eaten a lot." Xiao Wu muttered a few words and spit out the residue in his mouth.

"We'll make these for dinner tomorrow."

Ye Mingzhu shook her head: "These are all picked up at the beach when the tide was low today. There may not be so many seafood tomorrow."

Xiao Wu's expression visibly darkened, and Ye Mingzhu continued, "I saved a grouper for tomorrow's meal."

"That's great. I'll have dinner at your house these few days." Xiaowu decided happily.

Jiang Hongyu disagreed: "You are sent by the county government. How can you eat at our house every day? In two days, our house will be surrounded by the villagers."

Xiao Wu's eyes rolled around: "...I'll take care of this matter, don't worry about it. I've already told the village chief that I'll stay at the Ye family for the next few days in the village."

He pointed to the next door, which happened to be where they lived the last time they came.

Jiang Hongyu: "...Where do the people who came with you live?"

This time, there were four constables accompanying Xiaowu to Yuanshan Village, namely Zhao, Qian, Li and Wu.

The two Constables Zhao and Qian accompanied Xiaowu to the beach today. They have both worked in the county government for many years. There is nothing wrong with them, except that they are a little cunning.

When Xiaowu mentioned these people, his eyes were full of resistance. After a while, he said, "I'll hand them over to the village chief. He will arrange for them to live in the village."

Seeing that Xiaowu had already made arrangements, Jiang Hongyu didn't say anything more.

Xiaowu is good at martial arts and no one can beat him. In addition, Jiang Hongyu lives next door, so the Ye family is a good choice.

The most important point is that the Ye family’s house is empty and Xiaowu lives comfortably.

Constables Zhao and Qian wanted to live with Xiaowu, but he sternly refused.

Just now at the beach, he saw two people hiding on the shore, worried that the sea water would wet their shoes and socks, and he knew that he could not rely on these two people if something happened.

In that case, don't expect him to take extra care of them.

"I saw Ye Wu and Ye Lang you mentioned today. Ye Wu is smooth and Ye Lang is upright. They both seem good. If they do their job well, we can arrange for them to do other things in the future."

Xiaowu chatted with both of them for a while before he realized that Jiang Hongyu recommended them not just because their surname was Ye.

In order to test them, he has assigned them the task of notifying the village chiefs of nearby villages to gather people to come to Yuanshan Village to register. It depends on how they do tomorrow.

Jiang Hongyu was not worried that Ye Wu and Ye Lang would not do well. He had given them the opportunity, and it depended on them whether they could seize it or not.

"You've worked hard all the way here today. Isn't it time to go back and rest?" Jiang Hongyu looked at the sky getting dark and urged Xiaowu to leave.

Xiaowu said confidently: "I don't know where the light over there is. It's dark now."

In the end, Jiang Hongyu and Ye Mingzhu sent her back together, because Jiang Hongyu didn't know where the oil lamp next door was.

After finding the oil lamp, Jiang Hongyu stayed to help Xiaowu clean up the house a little, while Ye Mingzhu went back first.

Ye Mingzhu went back to wash up, then leaned against the head of the bed waiting for Jiang Hongyu. She didn't come back until she fell asleep.

"Why are you back so late?" Ye Mingzhu yawned.

"Xiaowu told me some things about the county." Jiang Hongyu said a few simple words, and Ye Mingzhu had already fallen asleep.

Jiang Hongyu covered her with the quilt and sat at the head of the bed for a while.

Xiaowu just said that the person who was caught this time said he knew where the wet nurse was thrown away, and asked him to wait for a while, maybe he could find some information about the wet nurse.

Jiang Hongyu felt hopeful again. He felt that this time he could really find news about the wet nurse.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" Ye Mingzhu turned over and said in a daze when she saw that the light in the room was still on.

"Let's go to bed soon. I'll go turn off the light." Jiang Hongyu went to turn off the light. The room was dark, but he felt very bright in his heart.

Soon, news will come from the capital that he can be stationed on the gold mine island, and if he has the opportunity in the future, he can become a military general. And his mother no longer has to climb mountains to collect herbs, and can treat people according to her own wishes.

He has a wife, a brother-in-law, and Uncle Yan, all of whom are his family.

Life will get better and better in the future, he listened to Ye Mingzhu's breathing, maybe, he would have his own children in the future.

Now there is news about his wet nurse. After she is buried, he will work hard to make all his family members live a good life.

Jiang Hongyu had a smile on his face when he went to bed, and when he woke up the next day, his expression was particularly relaxed.

Ye Mingzhu noticed it as soon as she got up and asked him, "Is there anything good happening today? I see you're in a good mood today."

Jiang Hongyu touched his face and asked, "Am I in a good mood?"

Ye Mingzhu nodded, a smile on his lips, trying not to show his good mood too obviously.

"Xiaowu will go and arrange the pearl fishing in a moment. Once they are out at sea, we will return to town."

Jiang Hongyu didn't tell her about the wet nurse, as he wanted to wait until he got a definite answer before telling her.

Ye Mingzhu followed his words and said, "Are you going to help later?"

Jiang Hongyu shook his head: "Let Xiaowu arrange this matter himself. I guess there will be people from other villages coming, so it will be inconvenient for us to go out."

Ye Mingzhu understood what he meant. If someone in the village was not selected and asked them for help, it would not be good whether they helped or not.

Xiaowu still came to Jiang's house for breakfast. After the meal, he lingered and refused to leave, wanting Jiang Hongyu to go with him.

Jiang Hongyu was a little amused: "Master Cui, the omnipotent one, still needs my help?"

Xiao Wu glared and said, "Do you think I want to be this mentor?"

He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. If he hadn't wanted to help Yu Jiaming this time, how could he have become a master?

He didn't take a master without rank seriously, but he couldn't say these words.

Just then, Constables Zhao and Qian came to look for Xiaowu. Jiang Hongyu gave the key to the next door to Xiaowu and sent him out.

In front of the outsiders, Xiao Wu squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Are you ready to leave?"

Jiang Hongyu bowed and smiled: "I have some things to do in town, so I'm going back today."

Xiao Wu stared, but there was nothing he could do. He could only go to the beach dejectedly. There, hundreds of people were waiting for him to make arrangements.
