Now, County Magistrate Yang must be having a headache.
With just these few people in the county government, plus the servants of the Yang and Wang families, they couldn't find the "thief" even if they turned Jixiang County upside down.
Would they be rude to County Magistrate Yang? Would County Magistrate Yang teach them a lesson in return? The dandy versus the aristocratic family would be a fascinating spectacle.
Xia Daohua narrowed her eyes, considering whether she should add a few more sticks to the fire and pour a couple of spoonfuls of oil...
The situation this time was different from that of County Magistrate Xie's family, so she wasn't worried about the two incidents being linked together. On the other hand, once Helan Yue recovered from her shock, she might be able to make some observations...
In fact, County Magistrate Yang did a really good job.
Even the old couple of the Xia family would sometimes talk about Lord Yang when chatting with their neighbors.
Everyone agreed that Lord Yang was a good official. His reputation was much better than that of County Magistrate Xie. Everyone felt that County Magistrate Yang's biggest flaw was his excessive fondness for masonry work like building city walls and houses.
Even in the freezing cold of winter, when water freezes into ice, he was not stopped. He even arranged for people to repair the roofs of all the old houses in the south city.
When I think of County Magistrate Yang, I can't help but think of Wang.
Wang appears to be kind and generous on a daily basis, but she is actually a vengeful person at heart.
Ever since the Wang family repelled the rebels and secured their territory, the Yang family's attitude towards Wang Shi had become respectful again. However, Wang Shi herself was not prepared to let the matter go.
She had already packed up the incompetent wet nurse of County Magistrate Yang and the careless maid she had brought with her and sent them back to the Yang family. It was County Magistrate Yang who had taken the initiative to ask Wang Shi to arrange this matter - after all, both the maid and the wet nurse had been caught by Wang Shi in trouble, more than once.
According to the rules of the Yang family, they should have been beaten and kicked out, and both they and their relatives should have been kicked out.
However, Wang did not take the opportunity to add insult to injury. She did not hit or scold them, and she did not even say a harsh word. She just arranged for them to slip back to the Yang family, thus saving face for the old lady of the Yang family and County Magistrate Yang.
Wang had even hired an escort agency and a carriage to take them on their journey, but she only sent her youngest son, a trusted steward, to accompany them. This was out of consideration for the two women, who were traveling such a long distance and might not be able to handle any problems along the way.
When Xia Daohua heard about it, she felt that Wang's arrangement was very subtle.
They hired an escort agency with great fanfare and sent several cars as escort - in addition to the two women, there were also several cars of gifts for the old lady of the Yang family - but they only sent a young and smart boy to follow.
After asking about the route, Xia Daohua understood Wang's intention.
That route was already plagued by bandits, and the escort agency offered double the reward for taking it. The wet nurse and the little girl would most likely be killed by the bandits.
Those boxes sent to the old lady of the Yang family will also be taken away by those bandits.
Wang remained calm on the surface, but secretly she would rather give up those properties than let the old lady of the Yang family feel comfortable!
After leaving the Hu Family Clinic, Xia Daohua walked back slowly, thinking about these things all the way. On the way, she met several groups of police officers and many small vendors who were disturbed and in a panic.
It is enough to let Wei Shiqi pull out the nail in the "Puji Rescue". Of course, if he can't find it, I can do it myself.
Li Gan caused quite a stir in Bohai County. The news shocked Bohai County and the Great Chu court. Xia Daohua felt much more at ease when she learned that he was fine.
As long as Li Gan can come back alive, the balance will not be wasted.
Xia Daohua felt that she might be a little cold-blooded.
Li Gan could be considered his friend after all, but after learning that he was safe and sound, the first thought that came to his mind was money and business.
However, her "self-reflection" never lasts too long.
After a moment, Xia Daohua thought of adding new things to "Daohuaxiang".
As soon as she reached the entrance of Daohuaxiang, Xia Daohua noticed that the old beggar who usually basked in the sun under the wall opposite was not there. She just frowned and went into Daohuaxiang.
There were not many customers in the store at the moment. Erlang had gone out to deliver the goods. Taohua was doing needlework in the back, occasionally looking up to see the other shop assistants busy at work.
Some of the guys were gently cleaning the shelves with feather dusters, some were adjusting things on the shelves, and some were cleaning the floor with wet mops. They were all very diligent.
They all had smiles on their faces.
The atmosphere of the whole store makes people feel relaxed and comfortable.
Xia Daohua walked slowly in the store with her hands behind her back. She looked around and looked at the empty spaces on the shelves. She planned to wait for the shop assistants to leave the store in the evening and then restock the stock herself.
As for those candies, snacks and side dishes, it's time to try something new.
Taohua has become more and more accustomed to the days of looking after the shop. She will greet customers when they come and is no longer so shy. She can now spend more time on other things.
The summer rice flowers said hello to the peach blossoms, then left the "rice flower fragrance" and headed towards the inner city.
Originally, it was not so convenient for Xia Daohua to enter and exit the inner city. This was all thanks to County Magistrate Yang and Mrs. Wang. Since she started cooperating with the couple, Xia Daohua really got some food, and Mrs. Wang gave Xia Daohua a pass to enter and exit the inner city.
