Everyone looked sad and regretful.

But Village Chief Sun had no choice. He was old and was extremely sleepy by the second half of the night. But the villagers refused to leave and stayed at his house, not letting him go back to sleep, forcing him to find a solution.

He had no choice but to compromise and agreed to go to town early the next morning to plead with Jiang Fubao.

The villagers then went back home.

At that time, the Jiang family had already fallen asleep.

The breathing sounds of Jiang Fubao and Xue Huan came and went. The fire in the charcoal stove got smaller, but the room was still warm. The window was opened a little, and the cold wind was refracted against the wall. The two people who had lowered the bed curtains did not feel cold at all.

Jiang Fubao slept until dawn, had breakfast and went to the clinic.

Before I even entered, someone called me from behind.

"Dr. Jiang--" A familiar voice came. Jiang Fubao paused and turned to look.

It turned out to be Village Chief Sun.

He came here so early, which means he left the village before daybreak.

He was very smart. He changed into the most tattered clothes with patches on top of patches and a big tear on the cuff. Plus, he was old and looked pitiful.

But Jiang Fubao didn't buy it. She didn't want to pay any attention to Village Chief Sun and just turned around and went in.

Without hesitation for a second.

"Doctor Jiang, Doctor Jiang, please, please, I..." Village Chief Sun shouted loudly from behind. People passing by looked over here, but before he could finish the words, his mouth was covered by someone.

Pan Shitou dragged him into the alley and threatened him: "Do you think that our young lady is kind and easy to talk to, so we dare not do anything to you? Let me tell you, if you come to cause trouble again, it will not be a simple digging of medicinal plants. Have you forgotten who our county magistrate is? Do you think it is difficult to just increase the grain tax in your Sunjia Village? Humph!"

Pan Shitou's words frightened Village Chief Sun so much that his eyes widened.

Yes, the Jiang family is not an ordinary family. Just because Dr. Jiang is easy to talk to doesn't mean the other people in the Jiang family are the same. If someone really offends Miss Jiang, she won't do anything excessive. But what about the other people in the Jiang family? Just like the servant who covered his mouth, he must have been instructed by other people in the Jiang family to be so arrogant.

The Jiang family must be trying to do something by directly threatening him with grain taxes, otherwise how could a servant like him dare to say such things.

Village Chief Sun suddenly became depressed.

If we don't grow medicinal herbs, we will just go back to our old ways, not become wealthy, and become the poorest of the ten villages. But if the grain tax goes up, it will be really fatal.

How can the villagers of Sunjia Village survive?

He didn't dare to say anything else and left timidly.

When Pan Shitou returned to the clinic, he saw his young lady looking at him.

"Did you threaten him?" Jiang Fubao knew what he had done without having to guess.

"Yes, it's useless to talk to this kind of person nicely, so I have to scare him. I brought up Lord Meng, and he was so scared that he dared not say a word, and he dared not come to see the young lady again in the future."

Pan Shitou smiled foolishly.

The master and servant have a very good relationship and he is not afraid at all.

Jiang Fubao really didn't say anything. He just gave him a look that said, "You did the right thing," and started seeing patients.

Even though all the servants of the Jiang family are like this, they know what they should and should not do, and everyone knows it, so Jiang Fubao indulges them.

As long as you don't go too far, she usually doesn't care.

Not to mention that Pan Shitou did this for her.

Village Chief Sun staggered away from here, and while walking on the road, he happened to see people from his own village.

It was Sun Mugen’s daughter-in-law, Yan. She walked very quickly and disappeared in a moment.

Yan returned to her parents' home at noon. After telling this story, she didn't even have time to eat and left with her cousin Yan Qing'er.

The aunt and nephew returned after dark.

When he saw Yan Qing'er, Sun Mugen immediately understood why his daughter-in-law was so sure that his son-in-law would like this girl.

Although she was average looking, there was a charm between her eyebrows and eyes, and her innocent face made him feel itchy at first sight, especially because of her snow-white skin and her soft voice that went straight to his bones. If he was not old and had no interest in sex, and his family was poor, he would have wanted to marry this girl.

"Okay, okay, okay." Sun Mugen said three "okay" words in a row.

Yan knew that this must be her cousin.

"Mom, is there any food left in the kitchen? Qing'er and I haven't eaten yet. We are in a hurry to get on the road. We didn't eat lunch. We have to take her to town tomorrow. We can't let her go hungry."

Yan knew that her mother-in-law was the most stingy person. If she hadn't said that, she might not be able to have dinner.

Since the words were so clear, He Xinghua could only go and cook for the two of them.

She simply cooked some brown rice porridge. She was afraid that Yan Qing'er would not help her family, so after thinking about it, she beat an egg and put it in the porridge, and added a little salt, which really distressed her.

Finally I poured myself half a bowl and drank it, and I felt better.

After dinner, the Sun family talked to Yan Qing'er for three full hours in order to get closer to her. They even talked Yan Qing'er so hard that she fell asleep, and then they let her go to sleep.

After dawn, the aunt and nephew set off without even having breakfast.

Since the wine shop was right next to the Jiang family’s snack shop, the Sun family did not follow them for fear of being discovered by their son-in-law.

When Sun Pingmei got married, Yan had not yet married into the Sun family, so the Jiang family was not familiar with Yan. Finally, the Sun family decided that Yan would take Yan Qing'er to the town.

Yan was eloquent, and Yan Qing'er was popular with men, so after she acted coquettishly, the owner of the wine shop agreed to let her come to buy wine.

"Let me make a deal first. You'll get half a tael of silver a month, and if you do a good job, I'll give you an extra hundred coins. But if you're lazy, I won't want you anymore, okay?" After Yan finished entrusting him with everything and left, the shopkeeper gave instructions to Yan Qing'er.

He stared at Yan Qing'er, but that didn't mean he liked her.

But most of the people who come to the wine shop to buy wine are men. Who doesn't like a talkative and gentle girl? When this woman speaks, his heart is itching, and he is afraid that the business of his wine shop will get better.

The shopkeeper was very happy thinking about making more money in the future.

Yan Qing'er always had a smile on her face, but her eyes were looking outside.

It’s nothing, Jiang Eryong is talking to the customers in the queue.

When Yan came here, she specifically pointed out Jiang Eryong to her.

Although he was a bit old, there was no ugly person in the Jiang family. Jiang Eryong was still as handsome as ever, and he was dressed elegantly, which immediately attracted Yan Qing'er.

Sun Pingmei, who was kneading dough in the backyard of Jiang's snack shop, had no idea that her parents were planning something against her.

"Mom, what are we having for lunch?" After being tired from massaging, Sun Pingmei took a rest for a while. She was not hungry yet, so she started thinking about what to eat for lunch.

Zhang Jinlan was already used to her greed, so she immediately took over and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat mutton, roasted mutton." In winter, you have to eat hot mutton, Sun Pingmei replied quickly.
