Time Travel: Remarrying a Little Wolf Dog
Chapter 87 Adopted Son
Su Yan was confused: "What?"
Zhao Wan: "You wrote very well, with logic and style. And the story of Chen Shimei, who was divorced by the princess, lost his official position and went home to farm, made me unable to stop reading.
"After reading it, I just felt clear-headed and happy. If it were a book, someone would definitely buy it."
Su Yan looked at her suspiciously, "Are you sure someone really bought it? Instead of getting angry and smashing the bookstore?"
Zhao Wan finally calmed down. After reading what Su Yan wrote, she felt that it was the retribution of karma, and her mood suddenly brightened.
But for those men, the tone of this story is not so pleasant.
But it happens that most of the people who go to bookstores to buy books are men.
If he is not satisfied with the storybook in the end, he might even go to the bookstore to make a scene.
Zhao Wan sighed deeply, flipped through the papers again and again, feeling deeply regretful.
"It's such a pity that the retribution of those Chen Shimei cannot be seen by more people."
Su Yan smiled awkwardly and comforted her, "Just take a look. I see that you seem to feel much better after reading it, so these things will play the best role."
Zhao Wan touched her face and found that she was indeed smiling.
It wasn't a forced smile, it was a smile that really came from the heart.
I also felt like a huge stone had been lifted from my heart and my revenge had been achieved, which made me feel very refreshed.
She couldn't help but smile again: "Yes, at least after reading it, I feel much better."
Then she turned around and said meaningfully, "This is so effective, Yanyan, when you have nothing to do in the future, you can write more."
Su Yan laughed and assured, "I've been interested in writing something recently. If you like it, I'll show it to you after I finish it."
"It's just that what's written later may be different from this. Don't say you're disappointed when you read it."
Zhao Wan pretended to be angry and glanced at her, "What are you talking about? As long as you are willing to write, I will definitely read it."
Su Yan: "Okay, then it's settled."
Only after solving a big problem did Su Yan feel like chatting with Zhao Wan.
Then Zhao Wan confirmed the news of the drought in the fields.
The Zhao family is a wealthy family in the county, so naturally they have their own land.
There are quite a few of them, including tenants. Now the tenants are quarreling with people from other villages over water.
Zhao Wan didn't want to worry Zhao's father and mother, so she had to keep it a secret and handle it herself.
Fortunately, Zhao's father and mother have often sponsored orphans in the county over the years, and some of these children will help the Zhao family when they grow up.
One of them is the most ambitious and has now become the right-hand man of Zhao's father and mother.
He helped Zhao Wan a lot in dealing with the issue of tenants fighting over water.
Su Yan felt relieved when she learned that Zhao Wan had already handled the matter and nothing serious had gone wrong.
He then lamented to Zhao Wan, "What's going on this year? They said it would rain, but it hasn't rained yet."
Zhao Wan: "Yes! My father also said that there has never been any drought in our area for decades, and it will rain. But there has not been a drop of rain so far."
Su Yan: "If it's later and it doesn't rain, the harvest this year will be greatly reduced."
Farmers are now gradually turning against each other and fighting over water resources.
The situation will become more serious as time goes by.
Who knows, there might be unrest at that time.
Su Yan was a little worried. It is better to be a dog in prosperous times than a man in troubled times. This is not just something our ancestors said casually.
Most people in ancient times did not have the ability to bear risks. Once they really exceeded their limits, the collapse of dynasties and the devastation of the people were imminent.
Seeing Su Yan so worried, Zhao Wan comforted her, "Don't worry, even if a disaster really happens, our county won't be out of control."
Su Yan perked up: "What do you mean?"
Zhao Wan: "Our county magistrate's wife is the granddaughter of the Minister of Revenue. The Minister of Revenue is in charge of the country's money and grain. How can he not raise his hand to the people under his grandson-in-law's rule?"
Su Yan didn't know that the county magistrate had such a powerful background and was actually a person with connections in the court.
Su Yan: "Then why did you come here? This is not a good place."
Zhao Wan: "I chose this bad place specifically to make a good resume so that I can get promoted later."
When the current emperor first ascended the throne, he attached great importance to those officials who did practical work in remote areas.
In just two years, seven or eight people have been promoted to important positions in the court.
The most famous among them is Fu Yuanqing, the newly crowned top scholar three years ago. He has risen from the magistrate of a small border county to a fourth-rank official in the court.
Deeply trusted by the emperor.
He achieved a height at a young age that many people would never be able to reach in their entire lives.
With such an overnight success, how could everyone not follow suit and try to become the next him?
Su Yan was greatly surprised after listening to this. She did not expect that Zhao Wan could talk so clearly about the affairs of the court.
Zhao Wan: "What I know is just the tip of the iceberg. It's all from the court bulletins."
Su Yan: "Your family can actually get the court newspaper?"
Zhao Wan: "My father asked someone to buy it for us, but by the time it came to us, it was often at least three or four months after the incident. We could only watch the fun and remind ourselves."
Su Yan nodded in understanding.
The transportation conditions in ancient times, coupled with the small number of official newspapers printed, were major obstacles for these people to see the official bulletins in a timely manner.
Zhao Wan: "So, with these two in charge in our county, even if there is a poor harvest next year, disaster relief will arrive as quickly as possible, so there is no need to worry too much."
Su Yan nodded as if she had realized what was going on. "That's good. Don't worry if they deliberately made up their resume or not. As long as it can benefit the farmers, it doesn't matter if they are sincere or not."
Zhao Wan agreed: "Yes!"
Perhaps it was because he knew that the county magistrate's family in his own county was related to his family, Su Yan felt inexplicably relieved.
I also had time to chat with Zhao Wan about other things.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, but they had a lot to talk about.
The two chatted for a long time, and Su Yan suddenly remembered the thin young man he met at the gate of Zhao's house just now.
I thought I should mention this to Zhao Wan and ask her to pay more attention to it.
"When we were at your doorstep just now, we seemed to see a man looking around the corner of your house. When he saw me, he hid in the alley again. I don't know if he has any intentions. You should also ask the doorman to be more alert and pay more attention recently."
When Su Yan said this, she didn't actually think that the man was a bad person or could do anything.
I just remembered it and wanted to remind Zhao Wan casually.
Unexpectedly, when Zhao Wan heard her words, she remained silent.
Su Yan felt something was wrong and asked, "Could that man really be a bad guy? Was he just scouting the area?"
Zhao Wan burst out laughing: "What kind of bad guys are scouting here? Do you think the county government office on the street over there is just for show?"
"In our county, the safest place is the East Street where the county government is located, and the street where I live."
"They are close to the county government office, so those scoundrels don't dare to cause trouble."
Su Yan: "That's good. I was just overthinking it. Maybe it was just a passerby who happened to pass by and I saw him."
Zhao Wan's expression was complicated: "Although he is not a bad guy, he is not a passerby either."
Su Yan was puzzled: "Do you know each other?"
Zhao Wan: "He is the adopted son of my parents!"
