The old lady was going to Fucheng, so she naturally had to be well prepared, because she was just in good health now, so just in case, she asked Doctor Jin to prescribe medicine and prepare it.

Wen Xiuyi directly asked Magistrate Chen for a few days of leave, asking him to play alone these days and not to come to him. He wanted to take his mother to Fucheng for two days.

Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Chen asked him to wait, then returned to the Yamen, took out a pile of official documents, and thrust them into Wen Xiuyi's hands.

"By the way, send it to the governor's office to the governor." Magistrate Chen also patted Wen Xiuyi on the shoulder.

Wen Xiuyi was full of disgust: "I just said that you are too dishonest. I have something to do, not a business trip for you."

Mr. Chen has now been honest with Wen Xiuyi, and the relationship between the two has also made a qualitative leap. He was not annoyed when he heard this, and replied with a smile: "Hey, it's a convenient thing. Besides, you also It’s time to show your face to the governor and ask him about the situation there, right?”

"You're the only one who has a lot of things to do." Wen Xiuyi curled his lips in disgust, carried the official documents onto the carriage, and angrily told Lu Jiang to leave.

County Magistrate Chen stood there and waved his hand to see him off: "Have a good rest and come back soon."

After sending it off, he turned around and went back to the government office while humming a tune with his hands behind his back.

Not long after returning to the study, someone from below came to report that the boy next to Meng De had come again and said that his master invited Mr. Chen to drink.

County Magistrate Chen didn't even raise his head when he heard this: "Tell him that I have gone to the Yamen of the Prefecture to report on my duties. It will take a few days to come back."

After the person who made the report left, County Magistrate Chen muttered in a low voice: "Why hasn't this person left yet? It's really annoying."

When Wen Xiuyi came back from the Yamen, he directly picked up Wen Yao and Luo Shi and set off. There were soft cushions in the carriage, which made Wen Yao and Luo Shi comfortable. Wen Xiu Yi and Xun Feng sat outside to catch the carriage.

Originally, Wen Yao wanted Xuan Feng to stay at home and watch over the big head. After all, they didn't know what Meng Quede and Liu would do. However, Wen Jun was more worried about Wen Yao and Wen Xiu Yi who were going out, so he told him to wait until Xun Feng came back. Just let Datou stay with Shopkeeper Qiu, so that he doesn't have to go to the academy.

Only then did the two of them take Xuanfeng out with peace of mind.

Speaking of Xunfeng, the royal guard, after being left in their home, he became like a brick, which he could move wherever he needed to go.

Because they had Luo Shi with them, they didn't walk very fast. They just walked while playing, and it took them two days to reach Fucheng.

As soon as he arrived in Fucheng, Wen Xiuyi asked Xunfeng to send him to the prefectural government office first. He still had to deliver official documents. By the way, he asked Mr. Lu how the land transformation plan he had proposed earlier was going.

Xunfeng, under the command of Wen Yao, arrived at their small courtyard.

Wen Yao took out the key and opened the door. He hadn't been there for a while, and the yard looked a little depressed.

"Nai, you rest, I'll clean up first." Wen Yao put down the things and began to tidy up the yard. He also opened the doors and windows of several rooms, and was very busy.

Luo Shi and Xuanfeng were not idle either, and the three of them worked together to clean up the small courtyard within a short time.

Luo Shi walked around and felt that this small courtyard was quite nice, but the location was a bit remote and there were not many people nearby.

"Why do you rent such a remote courtyard?" Luo asked.

Wen Yao couldn't say it was for convenience, so he said, "It's cheap. The rent is only one tael a month. A house near a bustling area costs ten taels a month."

Luo Shi: Suddenly I liked this house.

After tidying up the house, Wen Yao took the old lady to the nearest vegetable market, bought vegetables and came back to prepare meals.

Wen Xiuyi didn't come back until almost evening, and it was the person who sent him back before.

"Ah, Brother Xiaoma, long time no see." Wen Yao greeted with a smile.

Luo Shi gently pushed the girl behind her. She was still wearing yamen clothes. It looked like she was working in the yamen. How could this girl be so young?

Luo Shi glanced at Wen Xiuyi and asked, "Boss, who is this sir?"

Ma Qiang was embarrassed when he heard the siren call, and quickly explained: "Auntie, I am a yamen servant in the yamen. You can just call me Xiaoma. I followed Mr. Wen when he came to Fucheng to do things. No, Lord Wen came to the Yamen to deliver official documents, so our Lord asked me to send him back."

Luo Shi hurriedly invited people into the room and said, "Mr. Xiao Ma, you are here. Yaoyao has just made a meal. Let's have something to eat before leaving."

Ma Qiang scratched his head in embarrassment: "That's not good." In fact, he hadn't eaten the food cooked by Miss Wen for a long time, so he was really greedy.

"Excuse me. It's not my first time here. Hitch the carriage and go inside." Wen Xiuyi patted him on the shoulder.

In the room, Wen Yao had already prepared hot meals, and the aroma was wafting everywhere. Wen Xiuyi rubbed his hands: "Oh, I'm really hungry after a busy day. Xiaoma, let's go, wash your hands and eat."

"Ah?" Ma Qiang was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that the same thing happened when he first came to Wen Xiuyi's place to eat. He had to wash his hands before eating. He remembered.

"Hey, here we come."

The two of them went to the kitchen door to get water, washed their hands, and dusted themselves off before returning to the house and sitting down.

Luo Shi enthusiastically served Ma Qiang some food: "Mr. Xiao Ma, eat more. Our boss has troubled you to take care of us before. Eat more, eat more. Hey, I didn't know you were coming. If I had known earlier, I would have let Yaoyao do it." Bought a bottle of wine.”

Ma Qiang was flattered: "Old lady, you are too polite. This is what a young man should do, and Mr. Wen does great things. I am happy to run errands for him, hehe."

This man looks honest and honest when he smiles, making him look like an honest person.

Wen Xiuyi thought about the purpose of their visit this time. After all, Ma Qiang was a native of the state capital, so he asked: "Ma Qiang, do you know anyone you can trust? It's best to be someone who can do things. We are here this time." , but came with a purpose.”

Ma Qiang stopped eating and said with a serious face: "Master Wen, why are you looking for someone?"

Wen Xiuyi told this story about their family having a workshop and preparing to collect duck eggs from Fucheng.

"Look, when I came here last time, I found that most people in the village here raise ducks and there are quite a lot of duck eggs, but it's too troublesome to collect them one by one, so I wanted to find someone I can trust. We specialize in collecting duck eggs here in Fucheng, and then when a certain amount is reached, they are sent to my workshop together." Wen Xiuyi said.

Ma Qiang was silent for a long time and suddenly asked: "Master Wen, is this profitable?"

Wen Xiuyi choked and looked at his daughter and his mother: "Mom, do you make money?"

Ma Qiang: "..." Mr. Wen, the co-author, doesn't know it himself.
