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

What does this mean? Aren't these rewards for myself? At worst, I can just make up for the task later.

Lan Ning didn't believe it, so he walked towards the pile of rewards again and successfully lay on the ground again.

Go, lie on the ground, go, lie on the ground, go, lie on the ground...

"Warning, warning, an intruder has damaged items multiple times. The defense system is weak and will soon disappear. Please reset."

A mechanical sound came from the sky, and the system that had been silent for a long time finally started to move a little.

He stretched out his arm, grabbed Lan Ning by the back of her collar and pulled her back.

"go back."

An indifferent mechanical sound was heard, and Lan Ning only felt a strong suction pulling him. His body swayed for a moment, and he woke up from the bed.

"You're awake, you're finally awake, Sister Lan, wait for me while I go call Grandpa."

After Mu Zhongting finished speaking, he turned around and ran out without waiting for Lan Ning to react.

Lan Ning felt sore all over at this moment, just like he felt sore all over after running five kilometers.

After a quick glance at the room, I realized that this was not the county magistrate's room.

After a while, Old Man Mu was called in by Mu Zhongting. He was so anxious that he ran faster than the young man Mu Zhongting.

"Granddaughter, granddaughter, grandpa's granddaughter, come and let grandpa see how you are."

Before Lan Ning could react, his hand was pulled and his pulse was taken.

She wanted to ask what was going on, but her mouth was so painful that she couldn't open it. All the wounds in her mouth must have turned into ulcers, and there were quite a few of them.

Old Man Mu carefully took Lan Ning's pulse for a long time.

Then he touched her head with heartache.

"My dear granddaughter, you have suffered a lot. Now those evil people have been locked up in the dungeon. Grandpa will make sure they get what they deserve."

Old man Mu kept calling Lan Ning "grandfather" and "granddaughter", which made Lan Ning completely confused.

Could it be that I was sleepwalking while I was asleep, and even found a godfather while sleepwalking?

She really wanted to ask what was going on, but she couldn't open her mouth.

Forget it, let’s wait a while. I’ll ask myself after the wound in my mouth gets better, what did I do while I was sleeping?

Grandma Lan's side had people sent by the county magistrate arrest the mole man and his group.

They smashed things twice within two days. Originally, Lan Ning came to the county government office to give gifts and bring the county magistrate's wife to their unique shop.

After seeing those guards, those people would probably not dare to act too arrogantly, and they would be more restrained if they come again later.

Who knew that Lan Ning's mission failed, but fortunately, the bailiffs from the county government went to their shop and those people were successfully arrested.

She doesn't know when they will be released, but it would be much better if she could give them some buffer time. With a little time, she is confident that her family will live better and better.

Two days passed and the granddaughter still showed no sign of coming back.

"Grandma, what could possibly happen to Sister Lan at the County Magistrate's place? She's been playing there for two days and hasn't come back yet. I miss her so much."

Grandma Lan nodded.

"Yes, I don't know if Nannan can keep up with the eating and sleeping habits at the county magistrate's place, and she doesn't even want to bring us a message."

"Why don't we go pick her up?"

Grandma Lan shook her head and disagreed with Bai Tian's proposal.

"No, if we go, we will cause trouble to the county magistrate. If Nannan has something to do, let her go. We just need to take care of the shop and the house."

Although Grandma Lan said this, she was still quite worried.

She didn't know what was wrong with her these past few days. Her heart was beating very fast and she always felt like something had happened.

I was afraid that something had happened to my granddaughter, but then I received another letter saying that my granddaughter just had some business to attend to with the county magistrate and would have to wait a few days before coming back.

Thanks to the careful care of Mu Zhongting and Old Man Mu over the past few days, Lan Ning's injuries have almost recovered.

She mainly suffered skin injuries. The redness and swelling on her face have completely subsided, but the damage in her mouth has not healed well. Her mouth is full of ulcers, making it difficult for her to eat. She lost a lot of weight in just a few days.

Perhaps because he felt too guilty, the county magistrate did not dare to visit her these past few days.

The arrogant and domineering wife of the county magistrate was also successfully divorced and sent back to her parents' home alone.

The servants and the wet nurse did not escape and were all sentenced to death.

In fact, the crime they committed was not as serious as the death penalty, but this was the request made by Doctor Mu, so he had to do it.

He has been in a bad mood the past few days. He learned from the servants that his wife is even worse than a bully.

What she liked most was torturing animals and children, because animals and children had no power to fight back when they were abused, which made her feel very satisfied. She felt that she was second only to the emperor and above everyone else, and was not at all the wife of a mere county magistrate.

When he learned the news, he even wanted to kill her. But then he thought that after all, she had been with him for many years and had given him a son and a daughter. So he spared her life and sent her back to her parents' home.

As for what will happen after she returns to her parents' home, there is no way to interfere.

Lan Ning returned on the seventh day. Her injuries had almost healed, and the ulcers in her mouth were almost completely healed. As long as she didn't say anything, her grandmother and the others would probably not be able to tell.

When they saw their granddaughter (Sister Lan) coming back, the group of people rushed up to her without caring about anything else, hugged her and refused to let go.

Grandma Lan finally put her worries to rest after so many days.

Lan Ning smiled helplessly.

"What are you doing? There are so many guests here. Go and greet them."

"No, no, no, Sister Lan, you haven't been back for so many days, I miss you."

As he was talking during the day, the golden beans fell down, and he looked so aggrieved.

"I'm busy now. My two aunts are busy selling goods every day. I have to find someone to sell the things at home."

Lan Ning spoke cryptically because there were many customers in the store at the moment and it would not be good if others heard it.

"Sister Lan, you have lost a lot of weight."

After holding it in for a while, Meng Anran couldn't help but speak. Looking at Sister Lan who had lost so much weight, his eyes were full of heartache.

Lan Ning pinched her little face and smiled sweetly.

"How can I be much thinner? I still have so much flesh on my face. Besides, if I eat more, I will gain it back. Do you dislike me, Sister An Ran?"

Lan Ning pouted her lips, as if she would be unhappy if you didn't talk to comfort me.

Meng Anran's face turned red, and she hurriedly explained.

"Sister Lan, no, no, no, I will never despise you. I will treat you well for the rest of my life."

"That's it. I'll go to the backyard and check out the spices drying."

Afraid of exposing his flaws, Lan Ning quickly found an excuse to leave their encirclement.
