I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

Fu Jichang squeezed his horse's belly and rode away, raising a cloud of yellow dust in the alley.

When I looked again, the person had disappeared.

The women in front of the door looked at the entrance of the alley with some disbelief.

I've known Xiaoyao for such a long time, and he always does things slowly and methodically. This is the first time I've seen him so anxious.

Damin trembled and said, "Liang the Accountant, Song the Manager, look at our goods, it's time to settle the bill!"

Aunt Song said angrily: "Why tie a knot? I won't tie it this time. Let's go, let's go..."

Aunt Song was so angry that she pushed him with her hand.

Aunt Song was so strong that she pushed a big man to the ground.

Aunt Song turned around and went back to the yard cursing.

Liang Yuyao said coldly, "Boss Damin, this time it's your fault. Our workshop is full of women. We let you in because you are honest and loyal. You brought a lunatic here. What if something goes wrong?"

Damin sat on the ground and nodded vigorously.

"Accountant Liang is right. I was wrong. I will never do it again next time... Accountant Liang, please forgive me."

Damin spoke so sincerely that tears almost came out.

"The bill is tight this time. I'll pay you next time. Don't enter the yard next time you come."

Liang Yuyao said this, closed the door and went in.

Damin brushed the dirt off his butt, stood up, looked at the closed door, slapped himself in the face and cursed: Damn it, you are meddling in other people's business.

The man just now was so scary that he trembled in his heart just thinking about it.

He pulled up the carriage and left quickly.

He was not afraid that Zhengguo Handicraft Workshop would owe him money. Even if Manager Song did not allow him to pay, Mr. Ji was a generous man and would definitely pay him.

People in the surrounding villages all know that Anzhou Zhengguo Handicraft Workshop is very prosperous. The proprietress is very nice. She teaches skills for free and sometimes even provides meals. The food is mainly rice and flour, and sometimes eggs and meat.

The women in the village who can embroider live a good life.

Fu Jichang squeezed the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse galloped even faster.

Daguan lay on the horse's back, being tossed around all over the place, vomiting all the way, and couldn't even shout for help.

Due to his large stature, his feet rubbed against the ground, his shoes were lost, his feet were rubbed until they bled, and he fainted from the pain.

Fu Jichang ran all the way to a small river in the suburbs before stopping.

He picked up the unconscious person and threw him into the river.

Da Guang woke up, struggled hard, and kept shouting: "Help, hero, help me..."

The water in the river was suddenly dyed red.

He used all his strength to climb to the river bank, begging the man in front of him like a dog.

"Tell me, what's going on? Why do you want to cause trouble in the workshop?"

Fu Jichang said fiercely. He originally wanted to ask: Why do you say that you are Ji Xiaobei's man.

The words kept rolling around in my mouth, and it just hurt my heart.

He changed his tone temporarily.

Da Guang said, "I didn't, I really didn't! Please spare my life, hero!"

Fu Jichang fiddled with the whip in his hand and swung it fiercely in the air a few times.

Daguan just kept begging for mercy.

Fu Jichang could no longer bear it and hit him with the whip.

His body was immediately covered in blood.

Da Guang cried out in pain, and finally said, "I said, I came from the south to seek refuge with my aunt, and she said she would find me a woman, the boss lady of Zhengguo Handicraft Workshop, and she has nothing to do with me!"

"Who is your aunt?"

"Big Liu is working in the workshop. The one with her is Little Liu, her sister-in-law... Please spare my life, hero. I don't want a woman anymore. Please let me go..."

"Are you telling the truth?" Fu Jichang raised the whip again and hit him hard.

Daguan made a sound of "yes, yes, yes" from his mouth and fainted on the shore.

Fu Jichang kicked him into the river.

Let life and death be decided by fate!

He jumped on his horse and angrily cracked the whip in the air a few times, but this did not seem to calm his anger.

He ran around Anzhou City twice, the wind whistling in his ears, which finally helped to dissipate some of his anger.

He put away the whip, tidied his hair, and headed towards South City.

During the day, Ji Xiaobei is always in the textile workshop.

A quarter of an hour later, he appeared at the door of the workshop.

"Xiaoyao, you're here. Xiaobei and Shitou are in the house..." Song Laohei said hurriedly when he saw that Fu Jichang looked unhappy.

Fu Jichang ignored him and went straight into the yard.

Song Laohei: He has always been polite. What happened? Did he get into trouble?

He was suspicious and turned around to get busy.

Fu Jichang pushed the door open, but he used too much force and the door slammed against the wall behind him.

Shitou was talking about dyes with Ji Xiaobei in the room and was shocked.

He shouted from inside the house: "Be gentle, the door was broken by you pushing it like this..."

Before he finished speaking, a person appeared in front of him.

There was a cool breeze around me.

Shitou was startled and stood up hurriedly: "Little cousin, what happened to you?"

Fu Jichang's eyes were red, and he tried to make his tone calmer: "Go out first, I have something to say to your sister."

Shitou looked at Fu Jichang and then at Ji Xiaobei.

Fortunately, my sister was calm and composed, otherwise I would have been afraid that the two of them would have started fighting.

The stone rubbed against the wall and went out.

And close the door.

"What happened?" Ji Xiaobei was slightly surprised.

This was the first time she saw Fu Jichang with this expression. The last time bandits entered the village, he was calmer than he is now.

Ji Xiaobei's calm voice calmed his anger a little.

"No, it's okay. I just wanted to tell you that there have been frequent disturbances by refugees recently. Tell Heita to protect Guoguo and Zhengzheng, and ask the family members to be careful too."

Fu Jichang bit his lip and said.

Ji Xiaobei was puzzled. You talked about this every time we met. It was really worth it for you to make a special trip to tell me about it.

She asked again: "There are too many refugees. Is there nothing the government can do?"

Fu Jichang frowned and said, "The government office has no solution. Even the emperor has no solution. The government office has submitted a petition but has not received a response. Last time it rained in Anzhou, the refugees thought Anzhou had good feng shui, so a large number of refugees flocked here again."

Ji Xiaobei hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard that the several prefectures surrounding the imperial city are full of refugees. The granaries are insufficient and cannot be opened to release grain. The treasury is insufficient and cannot be opened to release silver. It's really difficult to deal with."

Fu Jichang looked up in surprise, wondering how she knew everything.

Ji Xiaobei: I have studied history!

Fu Jichang: Hmm?

"It's indeed difficult. The pressure is on the provincial government. We can neither let the refugees cause chaos nor let them rush to the capital..." Fu Jichang suddenly realized why he talked about this with Ji Xiaobei.
