When they returned to Xiangyang Village, it was already midnight. Tang Youyou felt exhausted, tired and hungry.
I secretly bought two steamed buns in the space, ate them with mineral water, and slept until noon.
"Mom...won't you sleep a little longer?" Lin Huahua brought her water to wash her face.
She shook her head. "I've had enough sleep. Have the officers and soldiers arrived?"
Lin Huahua nodded. "At the end of the afternoon yesterday, the soldiers surrounded the chive shed!"
Hearing this, she breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the system reminded her that she was out of danger.
Two days later, Boss Jia came to Xiangyang Village in person with gifts and sat in the main hall. The housekeeper and servants kept their heads down and did not look him up or down.
Tang Youyou: Quite well-educated!
"Sister, the matter has been resolved. The imperial envoy has investigated the matter thoroughly. Just as you guessed, the man finally confessed everything under torture. The two of them were secretly colluding, intending to murder someone and put the blame on Zui Xiang Lou! Brother Jin has also been implicated for no reason!"
Tang Youyou shook his head. "Brother Jia, do you think it would be such a coincidence? I just discovered a problem here, and someone died over there?"
Master Jia sensed something hidden in her words and asked, "Sister, have you made any new discoveries?"
She shook her head. "That day, the guard I posted at the village entrance inexplicably developed diarrhea, and the village's only doctor was pushed into the river for no apparent reason and caught a cold. It was all just too much of a coincidence!"
Master Jia became alert and said, "Sister, two of my servants suddenly died..."
"Brother Jia, please be patient. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. If one plan fails, he will definitely come up with another one!"
Master Jia suddenly understood her intention, "Sister, you don't want to alert the enemy, so you lead the master to guess that the woman and the man are having an affair?"
She remained silent, but suddenly changed the subject, "Brother, I'm not that soft persimmon!"
Suddenly, Da Jun came running over in a hurry, "Sister, they're dead, all dead..."
Master Jia and Tang Youyou rolled their eyes at the same time.
"Ahem... tell me clearly, who died?"
Da Jun scratched his head awkwardly and pointed to the greenhouse. "Chives, a whole bunch of chives are dead!"
The two looked at each other, their eyes full of understanding.
"Inform the county magistrate and ask him to send a few doctors. Our village will cover all expenses!"
The army rushed out like a gust of wind.
Seeing that she was calm and capable in handling matters, Mr. Jia was very impressed.
"Girl, people like you should be in the business world!"
Tang Youyou pursed her lips and smiled, "Brother Jia, to be honest, I have this in mind. I hope you can support me in the future!"
This friend of a business friend is your friend. If you don’t have any connections right now, isn’t this a ready-made one?
Master Jia stroked his beard and smiled, "No problem, no problem..."
Tang Youyou's gaze suddenly fell on the cloth on the table beside him, and he changed the subject: "Brother Jia, yesterday I heard from Master Jin that you were originally running a cloth shop in Nanzhou. Why did you come to Qingshui County?"
"Alas... My wife's family is from Qingshui County. My father-in-law and mother-in-law have not been in good health in the past two years, so we have been living here for a long time..."
Tang Youyou understood, it turned out that he was a filial son!
"What kind of business are you planning to start?" he asked. It couldn't possibly be growing vegetables, could it? How much money could he make?
"Brother Jia, who do you think is the easiest to make money from?"
"Of course it's the rich man's money! Ahem..." Oops, I spoke too quickly.
Tang Youyou covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "Not bad, and it's easiest to make money from the wives of wealthy families!"
Master Jia stroked his beard and smiled, "Sister, I'm from the passage. Uh... My name is Jia Fugui. From now on, you can call me Brother Fugui. This "Big Brother Jia" sounds weird..."
Tang Youyou: Your train of thought changes too quickly!
"Brother Fugui, I want to start a jewelry business, and I'd like to ask for your help!"
Master Jia became interested. "Sister, can you tell me in detail?"
She deliberately made it difficult, "Alas... right now, the most important thing is to deal with this frame-up!"
Mr. Jia: You know how to keep people in suspense!
County Magistrate Zhang encountered the army on the way and learned the news. He rushed over without stopping, but found that the two were chatting leisurely and did not look anxious at all.
I secretly complained: It’s the eunuchs who are anxious, not the emperor!
"Hey...you two are in such a good mood!"
There were cakes, peanuts and two cups of tea on the table. If you didn't know, you would think they were here to chat and laugh.
Seeing this, the two men stood up and bowed: "Greetings, Your Excellency the County Magistrate!"
County Magistrate Zhang's eyes shuttled between the two of them, and his grinning expression made Tang Youyou want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Sir, you are really fast!"
The other party's mouth twitched, and his tone was somewhat teasing: "Dare you not to be happy?"
Tang Youyou: Did you eat firecrackers?
"Ahem... Can I have a drink of water?"
Tang Youyou immediately went down to prepare, leaving the other two behind, feeling even more embarrassed.
"Come sit down. What were you talking about just now? Why are you so happy?"
Master Jia: "..."
"You are a man of good family, so don't let your wife down!"
Master Jia wanted to cry but had no tears: "Oh...Brother Zhang, please don't say anything nonsense, I came here just for this dish!"
No one could have imagined that County Magistrate Zhang and Master Jia's wife, Shen, were childhood sweethearts who grew up together.
"Let me tell you, this woman is from a very important background. You can't afford to offend her! Don't mess with her!"
Master Jia sighed, "Sir, please don't lie in front of Yue Niang. She is very thoughtful. I am already in my thirties. How can I be so unreliable? I..."
"Cough, cough, cough..." County Magistrate Zhang kept coughing.
