The first step to a rich country is to get rich first and then get richer

When there was still a little work left, Lan Ning picked up her small box and set out for the county government office.

I have been to the county government office so many times, but I have never met the county magistrate's wife.

Yes, since ancient times, women were not allowed to take care of state affairs and were only required to stay at home to take care of their husbands and children.

Every time I met the county magistrate it was because there was a case, so it was normal that I had never met her.

Although the gatekeeper knew Lan Ning, he still couldn't let her in easily. He went in to report to the county magistrate before coming out to invite her in.

"You haven't been here for a long time, what happened?"

When he saw Lan Ning, the county magistrate took the initiative to speak.

Lan Ning smiled and picked up the small wooden box in his hand.

"I have developed a good thing and I am sending it to the county magistrate's wife. Sir, can you take me to see her?"

The county magistrate leaned back, looking calm and composed.

"You little brat, who told you to give me a gift? Officials cannot take things from the people. I am an honest official. Aren't you harming me?"

"Who gave you a gift?"

Lan Ning put his hands on his hips in dissatisfaction.

"I didn't give you a gift. Even if I did, you would still complain that it wasn't good enough. I don't have that much money.

This is a good thing I made myself, and I specially wanted to send it to my wife. Please let me see her. This is a good thing for her. "

The county magistrate winked at the legal advisor standing beside him.

"Go and get it for me to see."

"No."

Lan Ning's eyes widened and he hid his hand holding the wooden box behind his back.

"These are private belongings only to us women. Why are you men interfering?"

"Hahahahaha."

"What kind of woman are you, little brat? Don't you know how old you are?"

Lan Ning glared at the county magistrate who was still laughing and the legal advisor who was unable to close his smile.

"What are you laughing at? What are you laughing at? Why did I lose count? If I am not a woman, then what am I?"

"I'm not laughing, but I won't let you in unless you tell me what this is."

"You must know?"

The voice was very soft, as if afraid of being heard by a fourth person.

"I have to know."

The county magistrate's voice also became very low.

Lan Ning was in a dilemma. If he really showed this thing to them, would he be kicked out? But if he didn't show it to them, he wouldn't be able to see the county magistrate's wife at all.

Lan Ning was a little confused and embarrassed.

There was no other way. After all, he was the official of their county. If he insisted on seeing it, I had no choice but to let him see it.

"Well, let the master go out first."

"Master is one of us, so it doesn't hurt to take a look."

This time Lan Ning disagreed.

"No, we can't let the master see it. Let him go out."

They were really curious. What made the little guy so cautious?

If it was something really important, her family wouldn't let her go and give it to them alone.

Never mind, she’s just a little girl and there’s no way she can hurt herself.

"Master Wu, please go out first."

"grown ups."

"Go out, it's okay, what can this little guy do?"

Master Wu had no choice but to look at Lan Ning several times. Finally, he stepped out and considerately closed the door.

"Can you show it to me now?"

Lan Ning pursed his lips and walked forward reluctantly.

"Look, sir, don't make it dirty later. This thing must be kept clean and hygienic."

The county magistrate took the box with interest, opened it, and saw a whole row of things he didn't recognize.

"What is this?"

"This is a menstrual towel, something women use during their menstrual period. I spent a long time researching it and it's really good. If it weren't for you being a nice person, I wouldn't have been willing to give it to the county magistrate's wife."

The county magistrate was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red and he slammed the table hard, very angry.

"I have always treated you well, why do you want to humiliate me with this thing?"

Ok?

Lan Ning was a little confused.

"My Lord, I didn't humiliate you. It was you who insisted on watching it."

[Hmm? It seems like that.]

The county magistrate felt somewhat guilty, but he did not want to lose the battle.

"If you didn't bring it with you, why would I insist on seeing it?"

Lan Ning was speechless. Okay, okay, you are an official. Your status is higher than mine. Whatever you say goes.

The county magistrate could not bear the fact that the little guy was looking at him with such doting eyes.

His hair stood on end with anger and he roared loudly.

"Someone, take this little fellow to the lady. He is upset when he sees her."

Lan Ning quickly smiled sweetly.

"Thank you, sir. If I come up with something good in the future, I will definitely bring it to you. Don't be angry."

The county magistrate waved his hands and covered his ears to show that he didn't want to hear anything more from her.

After many hardships, he finally met the county magistrate's wife whom he had always longed for but could never see.

"Madam, you are well."

Lan Ning awkwardly saluted Madam Xie Yu, but he didn't know how to do it, and his salute came out looking like a weird person.

The county magistrate's wife was a little confused and asked her to get up.

Just now, the servants told her, but what did this troubled little girl want from her? What would she bring to her?

Lan Ning didn't waste any words. He handed the small wooden box in his hand to the county magistrate's wife and repeated to her what he had just said in the county.

As expected, the county magistrate's wife blushed with shame.

But who is she? She is the wife of the county magistrate and has seen a lot of the world. How could she be at a loss because of these few words from this little girl?

"How could a little girl like you say such a thing? Who taught you this? What is your purpose? What do you want to do?"

Huh? What does that mean? Doubt her?

Lan Ning had never encountered such a situation since she traveled to this dynasty. She was not good at intrigue, but she was quite good at being straightforward.

"Madam County Magistrate, I don't mean anything. I researched this thing myself. If I hadn't seen how kind you are and helped me so many times, I wouldn't have been willing to give it to you.

I use this to make money. One piece costs a hundred coins, and all ten pieces cost one ounce of silver. If you don't like it, forget it. I'll take it and leave."

The county magistrate's wife never thought that the little guy would leave just because of a single word. Just now, he didn't care much about the things in her hand, but now that she said she was leaving, she wanted to get the thing.

"Wait, I didn't say I don't like it. Now that you have brought the things, put them down."

Lan Ning did not put the thing down. Instead, he took two steps back and waved his hands.

"Don't force me, don't force me. If you don't like it, forget it. There are several ladies who want it, and I don't have the goods for them yet. I can sell it to them and make some money. I'm leaving now."

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, hey, little guy, don't leave, someone, catch her for me."

As soon as the magistrate's wife finished shouting this, several servants rushed out from both sides and arrested Lan Ning.
