Just when County Magistrate Wu wanted to ask Lihua.

Lihua also felt that something was wrong with the master today. He looked at her strangely, and she felt creepy.

But think about it, I haven't done anything else to displease the master. And I haven't revealed any evidence.

Lihua's heart skipped a beat when she saw the master staring at the golden hairpin on her head.

She was very nervous. This golden hairpin was given to her by Luo Xie before. It was very expensive and not everyone could afford it.

He couldn't even afford the master's monthly salary.

Just as Lihua was about to leave, Magistrate Wu said, "Lihua, the gold hairpin on your head is very unique. When did you buy it? I didn't give it to you as a gift. Where did you get it?"

Just when Lihua didn't know how to answer, she saw the servant outside come in.

"Master, someone is looking for you outside. He said his name is Yun Tao."

When County Magistrate Wu heard this, he immediately turned around and left.

Lihua used to dislike Yuntao's name, but today when she heard this person's name, she suddenly felt very happy.

Yuntao’s arrival is truly timely relief.

Lihua thought about what had happened recently and felt as if she had missed something.

Lihua asked the maid outside the courtyard: "Before I came back, did anyone look for the master?"

Maid: "In reply to Third Madam, Second Madam's former personal maid Xiaolu came to see the master and stayed in the wing room for a while. We don't know what they said specifically."

"I only know that Xiaolu was very happy when she left. You should ask Xiaolu about the specifics."

The Third Madam finally understood why she was so flustered. Xiaolu was the Second Madam's personal maid, and she must have known a lot about the Second Madam's life. How could I have forgotten this?

Lihua hurried back to her yard.

As soon as Yun Tao sat down, he saw County Magistrate Wu coming in a hurry.

"Big sister, you're here. I thought you had forgotten about this matter. I'm really embarrassed to rush you."

Yun Tao: "Don't worry, Brother Wu, I mean what I say. I'll come back to you after I've prepared everything. There can't be any mistakes."

County Magistrate Wu: "Now, how much have you made? Do you think it will be enough if we sell it elsewhere?"

Yun Tao: "There is no problem in the surrounding prefectures recently, but it is not possible to sell to further places. There is no other way. The villagers are already working overtime to rush the work. The output is really limited every day. We can only say that if we give more time, the output will be higher."

Magistrate Wu: "The main thing is that this fertilizer is really effective, you don't know. The governors of several neighboring prefectures have begun to contact me. I would be embarrassed if I can't get the goods."

Yun Tao: "Brother Wu, I can give you a suggestion. If fertilizer is really in short supply, you can distribute fertilizer to them according to the size of their land."

"It depends on how you distribute it. You can negotiate with them. This way, every city will have fertilizer to use. Although it's not much, it won't be completely gone, which would offend people."

"After all, you are both officials in the same court, and we all see each other every day."

Magistrate Wu: "Sister, what you said makes sense, it is indeed true. Or you have an idea, and you have thought of me. Then I will negotiate with them."

Yun Tao: "Brother Wu, I have something else I want to ask you this time."

"I have opened a workshop in our village. But this workshop can no longer meet my needs.

"I want to build this workshop in the county. But I can't find a piece of land. I see there is no vacant land in many places in the county. Can you find a way to get me a piece of land?"

"But the area has to be large. A smaller area won't work."

Magistrate Wu: "I dare not give you an answer now. After all, I still need to conduct an on-site inspection. If you want a workshop, the area cannot be small. If it is large, you can build a smaller one. If there is demand in the future, we can expand it."

Yun Tao: "That's what I think. The reason why I built it in the county town is because I also want to open some shops in the county town. In this way, some people in the county town can also earn some money to support their families."

When County Magistrate Wu heard this, he felt even happier. This would boost the county's economy and make it more prosperous. His political achievements would also look better.

"The elder sister is still the best. She is really thoughtful and still thinks about her elder brother."

Yun Tao was embarrassed by what she said. After dealing with this matter, Yun Tao did not stay in the county magistrate's mansion for long and went straight back to the village.

County Magistrate Wu was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

After Lihua returned to her yard, she looked at the woodshed.

If I had known that something like this would happen, I shouldn't have sold her so early. It would be better to sell her a few days later. If I sell her now, who can I ask about this matter? I don't dare to look for that bastard Luo Xie anymore. What if he asks me for money again? I don't have any money to give him now.

By the way, I can find the eldest lady and ask her to bring Xiaolu over. That way, I can find out more about this matter later. I just don’t know what the master knows.

Oh, it’s so annoying, one problem after another.

I don’t know whether the eldest lady is willing to let go. She doesn’t like me either.

"Mom, mom, what are you thinking about?"

Lihua was so absorbed in her thoughts that her son came. She called out many times before she realized that it was her son calling her.

"I thought it was someone else, son, you just scared me to death."

"Mom, that's because you're thinking too much. What are you thinking about? I've called you many times, why don't you pay attention to me now."

"Mom, you haven't come to see me for a long time. I have a lot of schoolwork lately, and Dad always scolds me."

When Lihua saw her son, she suddenly thought of something.

But then she thought again, no, her son looks too much like Luo Xie. Xiaolu has seen Luo Xie before, and if she were to see her son's face, she would definitely think something.

It seems that this method doesn't work.

"Mom, Xiao Linzi has caught a cold recently, you have to arrange a servant for me. Without a servant, I have to do everything by myself. It's so annoying, I don't want to do it myself. You have to arrange one for me quickly."

"I'm too embarrassed to ask my father for such a small matter. Otherwise, he will scold me. I've got calluses on my ears from all the scolding."

"Mom, are you listening to me?"
