Jiusu raised an eyebrow, "Then don't bother yourself. After all, I'm not as rich as the third sister."

"You!" Bai Luoxue was so angry that he felt a headache and fell backwards.

Fang Fei held him and scolded, "Jiu Su, how dare you talk back to my lady? Believe it or not, the general will come back and kill you!"

At this time, Chen Nan came over and greeted Jiusu. Then he bowed to Bai Luoxue and said, "Why are you so pale? Are you feeling unwell? I'll take you to the clinic."

Fang Fei complained: "Chen Xianfeng, Jiusu, that bitch, insulted the young lady. You should tie her up and vent the anger for the young lady and the general."

"I'm afraid this won't work." Chen Nan said in embarrassment, "The general has ordered that no one can bully Jiusu. After the divorce, the general will be sorry for her."

Bai Luoxue's hatred grew even stronger.

Why are all of you siding with this bitch?

She was afraid of arousing Chen Nan's suspicion, so she whispered, "Help me go back, I feel a little uncomfortable, sister, I will come to see you another day."

However, the day for Chen Zhao to return is getting closer and closer, and there are not many days left for him to get close to Jiang Jing. As long as he can get Jiang Jing, he will pay any price. Since he can't take Jiang Jing, he will start from his family.

Jiang's mother sighed, "Why is this child so stubborn?"

Jiang Nianyin was afraid that Jiusu would be unhappy, so she took the initiative to hold her arm and spoke affectionately.

"Susu, shall we go shopping tomorrow?"

Jiusu readily agreed, "Okay, I'm going out tomorrow to find some suitable businesses to cooperate with. Besides, winter is coming soon, and I just want to buy some cotton clothes."

midnight.

It had just started to rain heavily in Lingcheng. Du Chenchen hurried to find an inn, but saw a man and a woman walking out of a brothel. He frowned slightly and murmured, "They are not good people. My father told me to stay away from them if I see them."

Early in the morning, Du Chenchen went to see the prefect.

The prefect was just worrying about what gifts to give when he heard that the Du family had arrived. He said, "Mr. Du, look, this table is full of wine. If you bring more wine, I will have a headache."

If there is nothing new, no one will remember it, no matter how expensive it is.

Du Chenchen unwrapped the package and said, "Sir, what I brought is indeed wine, but this is not ordinary wine. It is a type of wine that my father discovered recently. These two portions are presented to you as a filial gift."

Originally, the prefect wanted to push it away, but then he saw the unique packaging.

"It looks novel. Open it and let me taste it."

"Yes." Du Chenchen carefully opened it. Even if the movement was slight, he could not help sweating. He poured it into the porcelain cup. The mellow purple wine rippled in the cup, emitting bursts of fragrance. "Sir, please drink slowly. Please taste it carefully."

I have seen a lot of white wine and rice wine, but this is the first time I have seen purple one.

The prefect became interested and took a sip, "Not bad, not bad, pour me another glass."

After three cups in a row, I finally felt slightly satisfied.

"It has a mellow taste, a long aftertaste, and moderate sweetness. It's delicious! Mr. Du, you are really my lucky star. The general will be here soon. Please help me introduce him to you."

Du Chenchen bowed and said, "It is my honor."

Soon, Chen Zhao arrived.

Du Chenchen looked at him and realized that this was the man who had been fooling around outside last night. His heart sank, but he still knelt on the ground respectfully and saluted. Chen Zhao said calmly, "Get up."

The prefect was already prepared.

He poured the wine into a small bottle and said, "I would like to ask the general to taste the wine. Please try it. How is this wine?"

"What is this?" Chen Zhao yawned. He had been drinking too much recently, but after taking a sip of the purple wine, he became more energetic. "It tastes good."

The prefect smiled and said, "General, you have a good eye. This is a wine that has not yet spread throughout the world. I have been searching for a long time and finally got a bottle. Oh, what you are drinking now is a sample. The gift box next to it is for you. Please accept it, General."

Chen Zhao looked over and liked it immediately.

"How can this general take away someone's love? It's too precious."

"You defend our country, I admire you. Good wine goes with heroes, it's worth this wine." The prefect gave a thumbs up and kept flattering him, "My dear Du, please tell the general what this wine is."

Du Chenchen bowed deeply. This person should be General Chen.

Defending the country, my impression of him has improved a lot.

"Yes, this wine is called grape wine. It is produced in Suming County and is made from grapes. It has many benefits. It uses healthy ingredients, increases appetite, nourishes the body, and can also beautify the skin."

Phew, that should be correct.

I recited it several times on the way according to what Miss Jiu said.

The prefect immediately said, "So this wine and the general are from the same place. Suming County is really a place where many hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden. I think it must be the appearance of the general that makes these ordinary things more glorious."

Du Chenchen: “…”

He disagreed, saying that the wine clearly came out first and they had tasted it for several days before the general came back.

"You are too kind, sir." Chen Zhao asked curiously, "Whose wine is this? How come I have never heard of it?"

Du Chenchen hesitated for a few seconds and forgot to ask Miss Jiu if she could tell him the address. Suddenly, he thought that Mr. Jiang was so cautious because he was on guard against people. No, he couldn't tell her. He said tactfully, "My father didn't tell me."

Chen Zhao waved his hand, "No problem, when I get back, I'll personally display the wine and ask who made such a good drink."

After the greetings, Prefect Chen Zhaohe started a discussion over a small bottle of red wine.

The prefect felt very distressed, but in order to please the general, he could only watch. Fortunately, he had put it away in advance and he still had a large bottle.

After lunch, the rain finally stopped.

The best clothing store in Suming County is none other than Xiumian Pavilion, which is also the owner of Jiang Jiaxiu's handkerchiefs. Jiang Nianyin is very familiar with the female shopkeeper. She asked, "Sister Ying, do you have the latest clothes?"

"Yes, a new batch has arrived." Xiuying said eagerly, "You finally thought of buying something new."

Jiang Nianyin blushed and pushed Jiusu forward, "Sister Ying, you misunderstood. Miss Susu, it's not me."

Xiuying looked him up and down, and suddenly she remembered that the general's wife before was also called something like Su. Could it be that the person in front of her was Su? She asked, "Is that so? What should I call you, young lady?"

Jiusu realized that the female shopkeeper had no ill intentions, and said generously.

"Jiusu."

Oh, that's true. But rumor has it that the two have already divorced, and it was the girl in front of me who proposed it. Well, the girl is already married, so why should she stay at home and suffer?

Xiuying thought about it and felt a little more admiration.

"The clothes are upstairs, please follow me."

Jiang Nianyin was short of money, so she rubbed her hands and said, "Susu, I won't go up. I'll take a look at the fabric below."

"Okay." Jiusu didn't force her. After she memorized Jiang Nianyin's figure, she followed Xiuying upstairs. The shop had three floors, the first floor for fabrics, the second floor for ready-made clothes, and no one knew what the third floor was used for, perhaps for entertaining VIPs.

The fabric was also very expensive, and Jiang Nianyin lost the desire to look further.

I chatted with the needlework woman I knew in Xiumian Pavilion, "Well, I no longer make money by showing off my handkerchiefs. I've become a farmhand somewhere else...hiss, it hurts."

The female worker was startled, "Nian Yin, be careful."

Just in time, Jiang Nianyin was bumped.

Fang Fei hurriedly said, "Miss Jiang, I'm sorry. I was so busy helping the young lady that I forgot to look at the road. I hope I didn't hurt you. Otherwise, I'll compensate you with some money. If it hurts a lot, you can go to the hospital to see a doctor."
