The fat wife is rebellious: she was spoiled by the group on the way to escape famine

Because this was just an ordinary house, Xu Fangqi was not able to send a large number of people to guard it, and the security was quite lax.

Jiang Jinhe easily saw Lin Shen.

"Miss Jiang?"

Lin Shen had already fallen asleep, but because he was a light sleeper, he woke up as soon as the two entered the door.

Seeing the familiar figure, Lin Shen was surprised and let out a low cry.

Fortunately, the sound was so subtle that it did not attract the attention of outsiders.

Jiang Jinhe stated his intention directly without further ado:

"I am grateful for your trust, Miss Lin. Regardless of whether he can be appointed as the county magistrate, I will help Xu Fangqi to bring him down."

Lin Shen stood up and bowed respectfully, which made Jiang Jinhe slightly stunned.

"You must become the next county magistrate, otherwise everything I have done will be in vain."

Lin Shen smiled as brightly as a flower, delighted by Jiang Jinhe's trust in him.

While the two were talking, Song Wenqin was on guard on the side, occasionally glancing at them with a hint of sadness unconsciously in his eyes.

"Lin has evidence against Magistrate Xu, and it's hidden behind a Buddha statue in a ruined temple outside the city. Miss Jiang, feel free to take it. With this evidence, all you need to do is report it to the prefect, and Xu Fangqi will definitely be thrown in jail."

Jiang Jinhe's eyes flashed when he heard this.

"The prefect is still in Huizhou. Tomorrow morning, I will go there with evidence to report him!"

"Excellent!"

Lin Shen was happy to lend her a helping hand.

Seeing that the conversation was nearing its end, Song Wenqin approached Jiang Jinhe and asked:

"My lady, it's late. Can you go home after you're done?"

Jiang Jinhe nodded in agreement, not noticing that Lin Shen was startled by the word "wife".

"Mr. Lin, we'll take our leave first and wait for good news!"

After saying this, he and Song Wenqin quietly retreated. As Song Wenqin was leaving, he caught a glimpse of Lin Shen's face, which was disappointed, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

The two men left, and the guard who was dozing outside the door was completely unaware.

The original plan was to rescue Lin Shen tonight, but for fear of alerting the enemy, he reported Xu Fangqi first. Once he lost power, Lin Shen would be released.

That night, Song Wenqin led Jiang Jinhe to a dilapidated temple outside the city and found an envelope full of papers.

Jiang Jinhe opened the letter and was outraged to see that it contained records of the county magistrate's many evil deeds.

"How shameless! I never expected Xu Fangqi to be such a beast in human clothing!"

I have not finished speaking, so I add:

"No, calling it a beast is actually an insult to the beast!"

Corruption, bribery, seizing women, bullying the people, and seizing land were just some of his common evil deeds.

They even used the proceeds from corruption to lend money at high interest rates, causing many families to be torn apart.

No wonder Lin Shen said that if this evidence was presented to the prefect, Xu Fangqi would not be able to escape the law.

If this matter were made public, the prefect would inevitably be implicated, or at least would be held responsible for lax administration.

The next day, Jiang Jinhe entered the city under the protection of Song Wenqin and went straight to the prefect's residence.

While Zhou Wensheng was out, he stopped his carriage in full view of everyone.

"Sir, I have a complaint to make. I am suing the County Magistrate, Xu Fangqi, for corruption, abuse of power, and bullying of men and women, and exploiting the people of the village!"

Jiang Jinhe took advantage of Zhou Wensheng's distraction and quickly and clearly stated the crimes listed in the letter.

The crowd was growing larger and larger. Zhou Wensheng, for the sake of face, did not want to interrupt Jiang Jinhe's statement and could only wait patiently for her to finish.

As expected, Xu Fangqi was soon sentenced to prison.

When Xu Fangqi learned the identity of the whistleblower, he felt extremely regretful and thought to himself that if he had eliminated Jiang Jinhe earlier, this would not have happened.

Xu Fangqi's verbal abuse in the cell could not change the established facts.

As soon as County Magistrate Xu was arrested, the person in charge of guarding Lin Shen released him immediately for fear of being implicated.

Lin Shen, as a juren, went straight to see the prefect.

Zhou Wensheng remembered Lin Shen. There were only a handful of successful candidates every year, and Lin Shen was a leader in both civil and military affairs.

As the time was right to recruit people, Zhou Wensheng appointed Lin Shen as the new county magistrate without hesitation.

After dealing with Xu Fangqi's matter, the prefect immediately took him away.

The mess left by Xu Fangqi still needs to be cleaned up one by one.

Zhou Wensheng was even more eager to distance himself from the matter, so he entrusted all Huizhou affairs to Lin Shen.

Lin Shen’s first task after taking up his new post was to resettle the refugees.

Jiang Jinhe and his friends were finally able to enter the city with dignity.

In addition, Lin Shen confiscated Xu Fangqi's property and bought food, set up a porridge stall, and cooked porridge every day to provide relief, which won him the hearts of the people.

After everything calmed down, Lin Shen invited Jiang Jinhe to the county government office for a talk.

"Commoner Jiang Jinhe pays her respects to the County Magistrate."

Jiang Jinhe saluted, and Lin Shen hurried forward to stop him.

The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

"What are Madam Jiang's plans?"

Jiang Jinhe realized that he was hinting at something and asked directly.

"I am merely leading the group in search of food, I have no other motive. If you have any requests, please let me know."

Lin Shen was a little shy.

"Madam, you are straightforward. I won't beat around the bush. I heard that you have made great progress in finding food in the mountains, so I'm asking for your help."

When it came to finding food, Jiang Jinhe agreed without hesitation.

As the champion of the International Wilderness Survival Competition, she is an expert at foraging in the wild.

With her around, there is no need to worry about hunger.

The confidence of a champion arises naturally.

She knew very well that Lin Shen cared about the people and would not ask for too much.

"Thank you, Madam Jiang. This matter still needs to be planned. Once it is ready, I will invite you personally."

Jiang Jinhe didn't ask any more questions and waved goodbye.

Song Wenqin always guarded him.

Before leaving, Lin Shen's men forced a lot of food on Jiang Jinhe as compensation for what Xu Fangqi had looted.

Unable to refuse, Jiang Jinhe had to accept it.

Although it is a common ingredient, its advantage lies in its large quantity.

As soon as Jiang Jinhe saw these, many recipes emerged in his mind.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she decided to show off her cooking skills and let everyone experience the flavors of future cuisine.

Jiang Jinhe returned with a full load and was in a good mood.

They settled down in the west of the city, where the area was vast and sparsely populated, just enough to accommodate this group of people.

Jiang Jinhe drove a carriage full of food home, earning envious glances along the way.

The villagers of Ayuan Village were itching to try it out, and although others were jealous, it was only in their hearts.

"Neighbors, if anyone has any seasonings, please bring some over. I'll make a delicious meal for everyone today. How about that?"

There was an instant burst of cheers, and the children surrounded Jiang Jinhe, jumping around happily.

As time went by, everyone knew that Jiang Jinhe's cooking skills were extraordinary. However, apart from the children who could occasionally have a taste of it, everyone else could only smell the fragrance to satisfy their cravings.

In the afternoon sun, an enticing aroma wafted from the refugee camp in the west of the city, and the people nearby were attracted by the smell and were reluctant to leave.

The refugees seemed to be celebrating a festival, staring at Jiang Jinhe's pot eagerly, looking forward to the birth of the next wave of delicious food.

Although everyone was very greedy, they held back and the children were kept under strict control, so no one dared to disturb them.

Until Jiang Jinhe finished cooking the last dish, wiped the sweat from her forehead, sat down in the main seat that everyone had specially reserved for her, and said loudly:

"Okay, let's eat!"

As Jiang Jinhe finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, leaving only the clinking of chopsticks against dishes. She had only moved her chopsticks a few times when the dishes on the table vanished as if by magic.

Fortunately, Song Wenqin was quick-witted and used his bowl to help her pick up some more food in advance, thus saving her from the embarrassment of having no food to eat. The feast did not end until all the bowls and plates were licked clean.
