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

After Ji Xiaobei sent Huang Po to South City, he hurried to Zheng Dafu.

"Jiaojiao...Jiaojiao..." she shouted as she went up to the second floor.

"Sister, what's wrong? Is there any good news? Why are you so happy?" Jiaojiao came out of the house and asked with a smile.

"Jiao, I have something great to tell you!"

Ji Xiaobei mysteriously pulled Jiaojiao into the house and closed the door.

Jiaojiao put down the account book in her hand and looked at Ji Xiaobei curiously.

I have known Ji Xiaobei for such a long time, and nothing has ever made her so happy.

“Hahahaha…hahaha…” Ji Xiaobei couldn’t stop laughing.

Jiaojiao: Sister, are you okay?

"Jiao'er, Huang Po and I went to the government office to treat the wound of Lord Cao. Guess what, Xiao Yaozi spoke to Governor Liang in a very arrogant manner..."

Ji Xiaobei put away his smile and spoke seriously.

Jiaojiao waited for her next words.

"That is to say, Xiaoyao's official position is higher than that of Prefect Liang. Hahahaha, from now on, our family will have a backer in the government office!"

Ji Xiaobei laughed and expressed his own inference.

Jiaojiao: My dear mother, you are my good sister. It has been more than a year, and you finally figured this out!

Fu Jichang told Jiaojiao that since Ji Xiaobei didn't ask about his official position, she didn't need to tell her specifically.

Jiaojiao looked at Ji Xiaobei expectantly, waiting for her to ask about Fu Jichang's official position.

Unexpectedly, Ji Xiaobei took the account book and said, "I took out some more goods from the warehouse. You saw it. Please write down all the orders from customers and I will prepare them..."

Jiaojiao shook her head in disappointment, took the account book and asked: "Sister, don't you want to ask what kind of official Xiaoyao is?"

Ji Xiaobei looked at her in confusion: "It has nothing to do with me. His salary is not given to me. He can be any official he wants. Maybe we don't need his help. It's just that I feel at ease with someone at the gate of the government..."

"No, sister, if you open a shop in Anzhou, you still have to deal with people in the officialdom, so you still have to know a little bit about it."

Ji Xiaobei waved his hand: "Aren't you here?"

Jiaojiao: ...

Jiaojiao wanted to tell Ji Xiaobei that Fu Jichang was the judge appointed by the emperor, a famous general, proficient in both civil and military affairs and full of talent.

The key is that he is still single, and all the young ladies in Beijing are eyeing him.

It seems like Ji Xiaobei doesn't care about these at all.

Jiaojiao was so anxious. If it was snatched away by someone else, it would be too late to regret.

She grabbed Ji Xiaobei and was about to speak when she saw someone jump off the horse at the door and walk into the house.

"He Ye, why are you here?" Ji Xiaobei asked in surprise.

Shouldn't he be protecting the fields on the west hill?

"There are Green Forest Army on the West Mountain. All the people in our garrison have withdrawn. I came here to visit the shops and buy things!" He Ye said with a smile.

He glanced at Jiaojiao behind Ji Xiaobei.

I thought to myself: This must be Qiu Ming’s granddaughter.

Ruo Xiaolian's wife seemed to be seeking a divorce.

When Jiaojiao heard that a customer had arrived, she smiled and said, "Mr. He, please come in. There are many new things in the shop. Please take a look..."

Jiaojiao let He Ye into the house.

He Ye picked out two jade pendants.

"Mr. He, are you giving it to someone else or wearing it yourself?" Jiaojiao asked.

"I'll keep one and wear the other. Madam Qiu, can you help me string them together with a silk string? I think the styles you have are all very beautiful!"

He Ye pointed towards the counter.

Jiaojiao agreed with a smile and let He Ye pick the color.

She lowered her head and helped him thread the jade pendant with colorful silk thread.

"Madam Qiu, your little white colt is really good. Did you know that it killed the horse that Lao Fu bought for 100,000 taels of silver?"

He Ye made small talk.

"Ah...run, run to death? How could he run to death?" Jiaojiao raised her head in surprise and asked.

He Ye exaggerated the story of how Fu Jichang spent 100,000 taels of silver to buy Jueying, how he competed with Xiao Baiju, and how Jueying died tragically.

Jiaojiao suppressed her laughter and said, "That's a shame! The good horse that he bought for 100,000 taels must be quite good."

"Bah, a hundred thousand taels would have died if he ran to Xishan!"

Jiaojiao couldn't help it and started to giggle. It was impossible for a horse like a little white colt to outrun her.

Jiaojiao suddenly noticed He Ye staring at her intently.

Feeling that he was being a little rude, he quickly stopped laughing.

He Ye's face turned slightly red, and he hastily looked away, coughed lightly, and said:

"Madam Qiu, I heard that the little white colt was brought back by your grandfather from Western Xinjiang. It must have been difficult to get there from such a long distance..."

Jiaojiao just thought He Ye was chatting casually and responded in a non-committal manner.

She put on the jade pendant and handed it to He Ye.

He Ye stood up, tied it around his waist, paid the money, and left with a smile.

Jiaojiao went to the warehouse to find Ji Xiaobei.

"Sister, that Mr. He is the commander of the Xishan Guard, right? His father is the Minister of War, Lord He?" Jiaojiao asked.

"It should be, what's wrong?"

Ji Xiaobei asked suspiciously.

Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Nothing, I just asked casually."

The two men took inventory.

Unexpectedly, the next day, He Ye came again and bought a jade flute.

He came again on the third day and bought a glass lamp.

The fourth day came again, buying a jade pot...

Jiaojiao always gives a warm reception, and when the God of Wealth comes, we should welcome him with a smile.

He came for half a month and spent several thousand taels of silver.

Jiaojiao told Ji Xiaobei about this.

Ji Xiaobei smiled and said, "That must be a plot!"

Jiaojiao shook her head and said, "No, what can he ask her to do?"

If he had something to ask for help from Ji Xiaobei, why didn't he just go to her directly? Why did he have to go to the shop to buy things?

How strange!

.

After a few rains, the rice seedlings on the mountain came out, green and lush, and growing well.

With the Green Forest Army guarding the place, the refugees never dared to cause trouble again.

There was another reason why the refugees did not dare to cause trouble. They heard that the gods had come down to earth to protect the fields in the Western Hills, and anyone who caused trouble would offend the gods.

The storyteller in the teahouse slammed the gavel and began to speak eloquently.

"It was a sunny afternoon. The gods gave the West Mountain seeds. Who knew that just after they were planted, bad guys came to mess with them. There was a thunder in the sky, and the ground collapsed to form a huge sinkhole. A female god in a shabby robe came down to earth with her divine dog..."

This matter was spread among the people of Anzhou and became known as this.

Do refugees still dare to go to Xishan?

The government office also spread the news that seeds would be kept from the grain on the West Mountain, and the rest would be distributed to refugees and poor people.

All the people in Anzhou cheered.

Huang Po went to Lord Cao's place twice alone and brought him some tonic soup.

Lord Cao called her a miracle doctor.

Huang Po: I can do anything as long as you don’t die!
