To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

"Not good! Not good at all! You either beat or scolded me, and blamed me for everything." Shui Ling shouted, "You even blamed my name for the two times you fell into the water!"

Li Yulan clenched her fists. This little bitch doesn’t seem to be acting!

She choked up sadly and said, "I just had a fever and was feeling unwell. I hit you. Can I apologize to you?"

Shui Ling shook her head, no longer able to tell what was reality and what was acting.

Will the lady apologize? How ironic.

She really wanted to go up and expose the young lady's true face, but she couldn't. She shook her head, "This servant will never forgive you. It's a pity that you were not implicated. Jiusu is quite smart."

Yi Hui and Lord Li looked at each other and said nothing.

Suddenly, Shui Ling pulled out the dagger hidden in her sleeve.

She stabbed it directly in the neck, smiled bitterly, and fell to the ground, bleeding at Li Yulan's feet, screaming in fear.

Lord Li stood in front of Yi Hui to prevent her from seeing such a bloody scene, "Someone! Drag her out and throw her away. How dare you do such a maiming thing!"

Li Yulan was kneeling on the ground, her clean pink clothes splattered with blood, which was very scary.

She explained with a trembling voice: "My daughter didn't know there was such a despicable maid around her. I beg father and mother to forgive me."

Lord Li said calmly: "Since it is the maid's fault, it has nothing to do with you. Go back. You cannot go out without my order!"

Li Yulan kowtowed, and her expression could not be seen clearly.

"Yes."

After she left, Yi Hui sighed and raised his head in complaint, "You clearly knew that Shui Ling, a little maid, couldn't make the decision. It must have been Li Yulan's idea. Why did you let her go back? She is so shady!"

The adopted daughter doesn't know Susu's identity, but targets her everywhere.

It's obviously jealousy at work.

Lord Li advised, "People, don't push her too hard. She will bite if she's pushed too hard. If we keep her by our side and trap her in the mansion, she won't do bad things. I'm actually a little curious. Where did the Third House find Yu Lan? Is it really just a coincidence? But don't think too much. Maybe I'm just suspicious."

Yi Hui also doesn't have the ability to worry.

She warned: "You must protect our Susu. She just called me mother."

"What?" Lord Li asked in shock, "Why didn't you call me?"

Yi Hui raised the corner of his mouth, "Maybe you are too fierce? Susu is now a third-rank official in the court. As a marquis, you should help her more. If she is happy, she may call you."

Lord Li smiled and said, "She is very capable. She actually created so many good things."

I feel proud when I think that the first female official in our dynasty was their daughter.

By hiring a lot of people, Chenjia Village could build more than a dozen households a day. They also learned how to use stoves and dug a lot of coal. Everything was developing in a good direction.

Jiusu looked at batch after batch of fine salt.

She said, "Send it to the Prince's Mansion in Shengjing. Remember to keep a few jars. I will give out gifts during the New Year."

Qian Junjie agreed, and then reminded: "Master, your young master Jiang is here."

The two came to the lounge.

Jiang Jing said: "Our people found that the merchant of the tobacco slices also came to the Chamber of Commerce, but we don't know who he is. His practice has always been to drag others into the water and make private transactions."

Jiusu said: "When I go to the Chamber of Commerce, please pay attention."

Jiang Jing looked up, with guilt in his eyes.

"I'm afraid I can't go with you. The emperor ordered you and me to supervise the salt production. If we both leave here, we will be criticized. I will stay to supervise the salt production and help you take care of the marquis and his wife."

"Don't worry, I can do it." Jiusu chuckled and leaned closer, "Don't forget, I'm the daughter chosen by the God of Wealth."

Jiang Jing admitted that he couldn't help much even if he went there, at most he would just be an extra thug, "Be careful on the road, keep in touch."

We are going to Lingcheng tomorrow.

At night, Jiusu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. She got up and said to Zitan, "I will go to the government office secretly. Don't alarm anyone."

Zitan felt hot in his heart as he looked at the young lady in her nightgown.

"You better be careful."

Is the young lady going to be a chivalrous woman, like in the storybooks, enforcing justice on behalf of heaven and burning down the county government office at night? She looked in the direction of the county magistrate, her eyes stained with fire, as if they were really burning.

He found the back door, pried open the lock, and slipped in.

The defense here is not strict, and there are no important criminals detained here. No one will break into the prison, and no one will mess with the Zhang family.

In order to get closer to Chen Zhao, Lu cooked in the kitchen.

In the basement near the kitchen, the oil lamp was still on. At this moment, an old woman, who looked exhausted, walked out of the house. She was holding a wooden basin and sitting next to the water tank.

Jiusu stepped forward and called softly, "Godmother."

Mrs. Lu paused holding the stick. She straightened up and took a long pause. She wiped her clothes with her hands and smiled as she turned back: "Su'er, why are you here? Why are you wearing this?"

Jiusu raised his hand and shook it.

"I brought you some midnight snack."

"It's cold outside, how about..." Mrs. Lu turned around and couldn't find a suitable place, "Let's go to the kitchen."

Jiusu asked casually, "Are you washing clothes?"

"Oh, yes, if the clothes are dirty, just wash them." Mrs. Lu said with a smile.

Suddenly, a fat woman came out, saw Lu, threw her clothes into the basin, yawned, and said arrogantly: "Wash my clothes, quickly, I need to wear them tomorrow. I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

Lu laughed awkwardly a few times.

The fat woman frowned, walked towards her and pushed her hard.

"I'm talking to you, do you hear me?" He then sarcastically said, "You didn't think it was the general's wife? If you offend the old general, don't even think about it."

Lu lowered her head, and when she mentioned Chen Zhao, she felt sad.

Jiusu said coldly: "If you don't know how to wash clothes, just don't wear them."

The fat woman is the boss chef here.

She put her hands on her muscular waist and said in a rough voice, "Wow, where did this beautiful girl come from? Why did she choose the Chen Zhao family? Could it be the one named Zheng Rouer?"

The woman knelt at the gate of the county government every day, refusing to eat or drink, and fainted several times.

It's really annoying, and the county magistrate is afraid that someone will be killed.

She was always asked to deliver meals. It was a long way from here to the gate of the yamen, and she was exhausted every time.

In the dark night, Jiusu's eyes flickered slightly.

"You can take a closer look."

The fat woman took a closer look and was so frightened that her legs went limp. As a cook, she was very gossipy and knew nothing about what happened in Suming County.

He fell to his knees.

"Jiu, Lord Jiu."

Jiusu asked back: "You still recognize me? Then do you know that she is my godmother, and you actually bully her?"

"I know, I know." The fat woman nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and then she found an excuse, "Master Jiu, Chen Zhao bullied you so much, am I not helping you vent your anger?"

Jiusu said: "Then go to the jail and beat up Chen Zhao. Why are you bullying an unarmed old woman?"

The fat woman quickly apologized: "I was wrong. I will never bully her again."
