"Why, you also recognize this General Pei?" Xu Zian asked in a deep voice, the emotions in his eyes were hard to read.

Jiang Shuyue did not deny it. "I recognize him. He led the army to camp outside the city before, and I went there to sell wine for bone-breaking and medicinal wine. So I was fortunate enough to meet General Pei."

General Pei won a great victory, which is a good thing. Jiang Shuyue, as a common citizen, is also happy.

"Sister, have you ever done business with General Pei?" Yan Laosi gave a thumbs up. He was really brave and wise. He was right about the person.

Although it was Xiao Lin who set up the connection, Jiang Shuyue did not mention it until she knew who Xu Zian belonged to.

There were so many good things happening today that Jiang Shuyue couldn't wait to share them with Xiao Lin after returning home.

"You are right. But I heard from Lord Xu that they originally thought that Lord Xu Zizhen would come to inspect, but Lord Xu's corruption was discovered. Isn't that a coincidence?"

Xiao Lin smiled and said, "The affairs of the court are treacherous and unpredictable. Who knows? However, General Pei's victory must have your contribution."

"I don't dare to take credit."

Xiao Lin received the news much earlier than Jiang Shuyue, and Pei Shangxing also mentioned in the letter that Jiang Shuyue's prescription played an indispensable role, and wanted to ask him whether he wanted to give Jiang Shuyue credit.

Xiao Lin was waiting for the news to spread and then asked Jiang Shuyue what she thought.

"Why not? If you hadn't seen the miasma in the south in the book and given them a good remedy, they might not have won."

Xiao Lin added: "Perhaps General Pei can even ask for some credit for you."

"I don't want it." Jiang Shuyue said with a smile.

"Why not?" Xiao Lin wondered.

Jiang Shuyue herself didn't care, but as a woman, she was afraid that the so-called merit would just be some rewards, but she didn't want Xiao Lin to be exposed so soon.

At least before he takes the initiative to know, she doesn't want to influence too much about his affairs.

"I'm just a country woman. If I tell others, no one will believe me. The victory was won by the soldiers at the cost of their flesh and blood. My victory is nothing. Besides, how do you know that there is miasma? Even if there is, how effective is my prescription?"

Xiao Lin could hear that Jiang Shuyue wanted to live a carefree life, which coincided with his plan. So he decided to let his brother take the credit first and give it to her when there was a chance in the future.

"By the way, how did you deal with the father and son of the Hong family?" Xiao Lin asked.

"Mr. Hong was naturally dismissed from office. They said he would be taken to the government office for trial. I didn't dare to ask for details," Jiang Shuyue sighed softly, "I don't know what the new county magistrate is like."

"Why do you look like you know that the new county magistrate is not very good?"

Jiang Shuyue smiled bitterly, "Officials claim to be honest and upright, but how many of them are truly honest and upright?"

She had met too many people in her previous life, and few of them were clean.

Xiao Lin didn't know why she was so pessimistic. "If you were to select a general from among the short guys, you naturally wouldn't be able to pick the tallest one. But if you were to choose from different people, things would be different."

Jiang Shuyue looked at him suddenly and realized something.

The reason why she said this was because in his previous life, Lu Mingzhan only made friends with corrupt officials, but there were also good officials outside their circle.

Jiang Shuyue felt that Xiao Lin's knowledge was indeed beyond the reach of an ordinary country man. Perhaps this was the difference in his nature.

"That's right. When a good official comes, the common people will benefit from him." Jiang Shuyue said. She is also one of the common people and is also useful.

……

There has been a lot of rain this year. Every time it rains, Jiang Shuyue is praised by the villagers. Even the little kids in the village know that Jiang Shuyue is an amazing figure in the village.

Especially when they saw that a lot of land in other villages had been washed away and only a few were saved, they thought that if their village had not dug a canal in advance, the same situation would have happened.

It rained heavily, so the workers who were building the villa had to stop work. However, after resuming work, the workers worked as hard as they could, because they didn't want such a good owner to delay the opening of the villa.

Jiang Shuyue would go to the county every few days to buy things needed for the villa and deliver the finished bags to Jiang Shulan. Since she would be there anyway, she didn't have to ask her assistant to make a trip.

During this period, blue bricks were not enough, so she went to the brick kiln again. Although Yan Laosi was not there, he had instructed the manager early in the morning that if Jiang Shuyue came, she must be treated well.

Jiang Shuyue also learned from the steward that the Yan family is now looking for Yan Jiu, but there is no news yet, and no one knows where the person has gone.

Jiang Shuyue really couldn't help much. She didn't have many connections at the moment. The Yan family was the biggest connection she had. There was nothing she could do if they couldn't find the person.

When she went to the county for the second time, she heard that a new county magistrate had taken office, and she knew this magistrate, or to be exact, she knew him in her previous life.

In his previous life, Tan Sidao was demoted and promoted three times. It was not because he held a high position in the government, but because he was well-known for his special experience.

Jiang Shuyue had never met him, but had heard of some things about him. It was said that he was a good official who was upright and incorruptible, but he had a strange personality and did not get along well with his colleagues. He also repeatedly submitted memorials to impeach his superiors, which was why he was often demoted out of the capital.

Unexpectedly, he was the one who succeeded County Magistrate Hong and became the county magistrate of Songjiang County.

When Jiang Shuyue heard that it was him, he breathed a sigh of relief. Such a person would naturally not bend the law for personal gain. As long as he did not make any mistakes and was a law-abiding citizen, there would be nothing to be afraid of.

Jiang Shuyue went to the county to order some tables, chairs and benches. Since she ordered a large number, the price was not expensive, but the construction period was long, so she prepared early and was just waiting to use them after the villa was built.

When I came back, I passed by Jiang's house and heard a lot of noise in their house.

Because the two families live close to each other, Jiang Shuyue has gotten used to it. They have a big quarrel every three days and a small quarrel every five days.

Let’s say two women marry one man. They are so busy with their own affairs that they don’t have the time to mess things up.

After dinner, Jiang Liuyun went to read, and the old couple also sat under the tree to enjoy the cool air.

Jiang Shuyue still had to do some accounting. She had been spending a lot of money recently, and of course she had earned a lot as well, but she still wanted to tally up the accounts so that she would know where the money had been spent. She didn't want to be confused.

Xiao Lin followed her into the house without saying anything, just looking at her from time to time.

Jiang Shuyue had already noticed something out of the corner of her eye. In fact, as mentioned before, County Magistrate Hong had been brought to justice and Yan Jiu's case had been overturned, so she would no longer be a threat.

It's time for them to divorce.

Jiang Shuyue hesitated for a while, and was about to speak, but heard Xiao Lin say, "I have to go on a long journey tomorrow."
