Chapter 603: All thanks to the princess!
After learning that everything is fine, I feel relieved and emotional, and experience the joys and sorrows of life.
"We're in the village too. Now's the season for autumn pear paste. After you gave me the recipe, three workshops opened in our village this year, specializing in making autumn pear paste. The taste is getting better and better, almost catching up with yours. We've received a lot of orders from the Lin family's pastry shop and other places. Now everyone in the village goes to the mountains to pick pears every day and rushes to make it at night... This year is another bumper year. No one in our village will starve to death, all thanks to the princess!"
"That's good. Wangjia Village is our hometown, and we have a connection with this place. We will come back to live here every now and then when we have time. If there are any difficulties or hardships in the village, just tell us..." Jiang Lianzhu was also very satisfied after hearing this.
The people in Wangjia Village became rich, and she was happy too.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
Giving money is no use, it only supports lazy people.
Let them earn money with their own hands and gain wealth through labor, which will give them a sense of accomplishment and cultivate their ambition.
After dinner, Jiang Lianzhu followed the village head to visit the workshops. There were three workshops, all of which were relatively formal and prepared food according to Jiang Lianzhu's previous methods.
Jiang Lianzhu also tasted the autumn pear paste and said, "It's quite good. I've also ordered a few hundred kilograms of autumn pear paste this year."
Use the Qinglian hand warmer to refine it and prepare it for Lin Ziyi when the time comes.
Lin Ziyi needs to always have meatballs made with autumn pear paste on hand.
If your family eats it during the dry season, it can also prevent coughs and other symptoms.
The villagers were very happy to receive Jiang Lianzhu's affirmation.
The old uncle, the village head, said, "Okay, I'll leave as much as you want. I won't sell out the ones I made these days, so I'll just take them to the capital for you."
"That's fine, thank you for your help, uncle." This saves me from having to send it later.
Jiang Lianzhu was paying for it anyway, so she wouldn't take anything from Wangjia Village for free. It's not easy to make autumn pear paste, she has made it herself, and it's all hard-earned money.
Then, Jiang Lianzhu noticed a lot of flies and mosquitoes, and reminded them to pay attention to the sanitary environment and repel insects, etc. The village head took careful notes.
She also taught the workshop all the little tricks of making autumn pear paste without reservation. Before, the recipe was not written so clearly, and now it was impossible for her to come back and make autumn pear paste again, so she told them everything she knew.
Everyone in Wangjia Village is grateful to Jiang Lianzhu.
After a short rest, Jiang Lianzhu and the others began to take Jiang Cheng's ashes to the neighboring town for burial.
The journey was not far and the carriage arrived in half an hour.
I went to Jiang Qingcai's hometown, but his dilapidated house had changed hands. After asking the neighbors, I finally found out where Jiang Cheng's sister, Madam Cheng, was buried...
I spent some money and asked someone to lead me to find Madam Cheng's grave.
The official document that Jiang Lianzhu had become the Princess of Fu'an had already been spread throughout the country. Shamen County was Jiang Lianzhu's former residence, so almost everyone knew about it.
It’s just that I haven’t seen Jiang Lianzhu for a long time, and my impression of her is still stuck in the past, when she was a little girl.
When Jiang Lianzhu came to visit Madam Cheng's grave without revealing her identity, no one recognized her.
Later on, it was said that it was Jiang Lianzhu who brought her adoptive mother's ashes back for burial, and everyone suddenly became excited.
Spread the word.
There were crowds of people coming to watch the fun.
The six-door guards brought by Liao Jiu had to step forward and stop everyone outside.
The neighbors and villagers who were invited to the party initially took the small change that Jiang Lianzhu gave them for leading the way, but now they dare not accept it and want to return it to Jiang Lianzhu.
"No, that's right, I didn't know you were Princess Fu'an. You're completely different now than when you were little, I didn't recognize you. We're neighbors from the same village, and I shouldn't have accepted money, I..."
Jiang Lianzhu said kindly, "It's okay, it's my duty. I'm earning your hard-earned money by helping lead the way."
Seeing this, the villagers thought that Princess Fu'an was so polite and that this little money was not worth anything to her, so they took it back.
"Thank you, Princess," she said warmly. "Madam Cheng is buried not far from the city. There are cemeteries everywhere, and the environment is beautiful. I used to see Jiang Cheng go there to pay my respects. My family also happens to have an ancestor buried there. I'll take you there now..."
"Trouble."
"Princess Fu'an, you are a filial person. You even personally sent Jiang Cheng back for burial. It's a pity for Jiang Cheng. Before you became a princess, we heard Jiang Cheng speak of your kindness and filial piety. You asked her to follow you and enjoy the best food and drink. It's hard to find a girl who is willing to support her mother after getting married. It's a blessing that others can't envy, but Jiang Cheng refused it. She insisted on coming back to live with her two good-for-nothing sons. We all advised her that it would be great to live with promising daughters and not to bother with Jiang Dalang and those two beasts, but she didn't listen. As expected, it happened like that. Alas..."
On the way, fellow villagers and neighbors sighed with emotion.
After saying a few words, he realized that he had said something wrong, "My Lady Princess, I'm sorry, we said too much. It's good that Jiang Cheng is now buried in peace. I heard her say before that she wanted to be buried with her elder sister when she died. Now she finally got her wish."
He chattered until he reached the cemetery hill outside the town.
It's quite large, with countless graves.
"This is our town's cemetery. Anyone who dies, unless they're a wicked criminal, can be buried here. Just pay a small maintenance fee. I'll take you to the gravekeeper and have him arrange a plot for you next to Madam Cheng..."
"Trouble."
The group went to find the gravekeeper, who was an old man who was a little hard of hearing. After hearing their purpose, he made some concessions for them and allocated an adjacent grave for Jiang Cheng to be buried.
Jiang Lianzhu and the others first paid homage to Aunt Cheng's tombstone and burned paper money.
The villagers contributed some small change and helped dig a grave to bury Jiang Cheng's ashes.
Jiang Lianzhu knelt in front of the grave and burned paper money. "Mother, I have fulfilled your last wish. From now on, you and your sisters will have company in the underworld and won't be lonely anymore. Rest well down there. Be a good person in your next life and never meet Jiang Qingcai, Jiang Dalang and other evildoers again."
"Dabao, Erbao, and Nianbao, all of you come here, kowtow to your grandma, and send her off in peace..."
Here, the dead are the most important. There is no such thing as a king or a powerful person.
They are all descendants.
Dabao and the other children came back just to see Jiang Cheng off for the last time, so they naturally did as they were told.
Kowtow and burn incense.
Be polite and respectful.
Some villagers watched from afar and whispered.
"Those children must be the sons of Prince Xiang, right? Little Prince Xiang! It's truly worth it for Jiang Cheng to have such a noble person kneel down and kowtow to her in her lifetime."
