Chapter 377 Extra (I)

Five years later

Lianjiagou, no, it is no longer called Lianjiagou, it is now called Lianjiazhen.

Since the tax revenue of Hailing City and even Lizhou Island has been soaring, it has alarmed the current emperor. So Qin Zhen, who received the inquiry, wrote down everything that happened on the island in a memorial and sent it to Kyoto.

Seeing that the oysters, coconuts and various fruits from Lizhou Island, which were once unsellable, have now increased dozens of times in price, even the emperor could not help but admire Jiang Wan's ability to turn waste into treasure.

I heard that the concubines in my harem are now using skin care products donated by Hailing City.

That's really incredible.

When the emperor thought about the once barren land, which now collected tens of millions of yuan in taxes every year, and even more every year, he was very pleased and promoted Qin Zhen three levels.

As for Jiang Wan, she was the greatest contributor. Such merits were enough to offset the fact that they were exiled.

The emperor naturally cleared Jiang Wan and her uncle's family of the charges, and from then on they could leave the island whenever they wanted, and return to Kyoto whenever they wanted. However, the property that was confiscated had been bought by someone else and could not be returned.

So the emperor directly compensated Jiang Wan with the status of a county lady, gave her a house in Kyoto, and also gave her an island near Hailing City.

This island is not the one Jiang Wan bought casually before. There are fresh water resources on that island.

If they and their family moved to the island to live and hired a bunch of people to serve them, they could even be called a small king.

However, Jiang Wan did not have such great ambitions. She only regarded the island as a travel destination for her family.

After getting it, he sent people to build a house on the island, planning to live there for a while when the family was free to relax. Otherwise, they would still live in the village.

They still like to live with the villagers, which is lively but not noisy. Now everyone knows each other well, which is great.

This year Jiang Wan turned eighteen years old.

The daughter, Xiao Mu, grew up to be a beautiful girl under the careful care of her mother. As early as when she was fourteen years old, matchmakers came to her house one after another.

Because everyone can see that Jiang Wan is a golden child. She is beautiful and can make money. Who wouldn't like such a daughter-in-law?

Jiang Wan was so annoyed that she had no choice but to bring out her fiancé from Kyoto, which immediately drove away all the matchmakers.

Yin Ning thought the effect was very good, and quickly found a fiancé for herself.

All of a sudden, the two popular girls became cold.

Everyone knows their own limitations. They are originally from Kyoto, so it is not wrong for them to marry back to Kyoto. After all, they are peasants, and cannot compare to the young masters of Kyoto.

But seeing that Jiang Wan is already eighteen years old and Yin Ning has become an old maid, both of them are still unmarried, and a lot of rumors have started to spread recently.

"well……"

The sigh was very clear in the quiet room.

Yin Huaixi looked up at her sister-in-law and couldn't help laughing.

"Sister-in-law, why are you always so sad lately?"

"You don't know yet, it's all because of An Ning."

Song Wenhui became very worried just thinking about it.

Five years ago, my daughter reached marriageable age, but she said she didn't want to get married too early and wanted to choose her own husband.

This process lasted for five years, and she became an old maid.

Although she doesn't think there's anything wrong with her daughter being older, in the wedding market outside, her daughter is considered an old spinster.

When the matchmaker hears the age of the girl, the first thing he or she will ask is whether there is any problem, otherwise why is she still unmarried at such an age.

During these five years, I only saw my daughter and Wanwan busy in the workshop. There was not even a man in the workshop.

The sister-in-law is not anxious, but she is.

"Huaixi, Wanwan is already 18 years old, aren't you in a hurry?"

Yin Huaixi shook his head, looking calm.

"She's only 18 years old, it's too early. It's too early for a girl to get married at this age. It's not too late to wait another three to five years. Don't worry, sister-in-law. If Aning marries someone else, she will have to take care of her parents-in-law and worry about the whole family. Can you bear that? If you want to marry someone off, you have to be more careful in choosing the right person."

Not every son-in-law is like her Li Xiao, who can walk into the living room, cough cough cough...

Character is so important.

Since the conditions in the village have improved, there have been several families recruiting children. Almost half of men are in it for money. There is a family that is so evil that they poison the Yue family and their whole family in an attempt to destroy them.

Fortunately, they were alert and came to the doctor early, and that's how the problem was discovered.

So Zhao Yu had to keep his eyes open.

"The two girls are going to Yongzhou for fun. Maybe they will bring you a son-in-law when they come back."

As soon as Song Wenhui stopped sewing, she began to feel anticipation in her heart.

I hope what my sister-in-law said is right. The world out there is so big and there will be more talented people to meet. Aning will always meet one.

This is the Yongzhou Pine and Bamboo Pavilion.

Yin Ning's face turned red and he didn't know where to look.

"Cousin. There are too many people."

Jiang Wan just felt that it was a feast for the eyes, and she even complained that there were not enough people.

"Don't be afraid, cousin. They are just performing arts. We can't discriminate against them. Look at Anan and Baozhu."

Yin Ning looked to the left and saw that although Anan Baozhu's face was flushed, her eyes were wide open. She looked here and there, and seemed a little confused.

These two girls!

"These two girls will enjoy it."

Jiang Wan leaned on her cousin with a smile.

"Cousin, I think the guy in the middle has the best body, with eight-pack abs, and he dances beautifully. The one on the far right is also good, and he looks the best to my taste. And the one at the back, although his movements are a little stiff, he looks really good when he smiles."

Perhaps feeling Jiang Wan's gaze, the man at the back tilted his head, smiled, and blinked at the two of them.

Yin Ning covered his chest, thinking that his cousin was really brave.

"Cousin, do you like anything? I'll ask him to come over and pour you some tea."

"No, no!"

Yin Ning's head shook like a wave drum.

In her eyes, these men were all seductive, which made her feel uncomfortable. She really didn't understand why her cousin liked them.

She still prefers the more masculine ones...

A figure popped up in Yin Ning's mind, and she quickly shook her head. Why would she miss him when he ignored her?

"Xiao Wan, Xiao Wan!"

Baozhu Anan sat over with an excited look on his face.

"The leader of the dance, Mr. Rusong, said he is best at playing the piano and asked if we would like to listen to a song."

Jiang Wan looked up and saw that the dance had ended. A group of men were waiting for her to speak.

"Then play one more song. As for the rest of the program, you two can arrange it yourselves, Anan Baozhu."

She has already brought people out, and they can also try many things on their own.

When Baozhu Anan heard this, she sat back in her seat with a red face and ordered a series of programs.

All of them are good-looking.

The others who were not called received their reward money and left. The only one who had a nice smile was kept by Jiang Wan, who asked him to come over and serve tea.

Yin Ning looked at her cousin's happy smile and couldn't help swallowing.

If my aunt knew about this, would she beat me up?
