Lu Yanzheng looked at the soldier who came to report the news and pursed his lips. "The water in only three wells has increased? The other six are still the same?"

"Yes, General. Only the water in the three wells near the general's mansion has increased. The people are very happy. Everyone says that the drought may be over." The soldier smiled innocently.

He also hoped that the drought would end so that no one would die of hunger or thirst.

Are they the three wells near the General's Mansion? Those were the wells Jiang Qinyu had visited when she returned home that day.

There was a hint of darkness in Lu Yanzheng's eyes.

Lu Yanzheng returned home on time for lunch. Jiang Qinyu was nervous and tense, but she tried to remain calm on the surface, ready to ask Lu Yanzheng questions at any time.

But he didn't ask anything until the end of the meal. Jiang Qinyu thought the matter was over, but Lu Yanzheng suddenly called her.

"Qinqin, didn't you say you wanted to understand the water source situation in the border town? Uncle Chen only took you to see three wells that day. There must be a few more wells you haven't seen, right?" Lu Yanzheng asked casually.

Jiang Qinyu's scalp tightened, and the smile on her face was a little unnatural. "Yeah, isn't it true that there haven't been many opportunities to go out these past two days?"

"That's perfect. I have nothing to do this afternoon, so I'll go with you to take a look. Once you have a better idea, you can better guide them on how to grow sweet potatoes." Lu Yanzheng said it very naturally, as if he had no doubts at all.

Since he said so, how could Jiang Qinyu refuse? She immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll go and coax Shufan and Pan'er to sleep first..."

"Aunt, can we not take a nap at noon today? We also want to go out and take a look." Pan'er suddenly hugged Jiang Qinyu's legs, tilted her head back, and looked at her expectantly with her big eyes blinking.

Jiang Qinyu couldn't resist her cute and adorable look. Seeing Shu Fan looking at her with the same expression, she agreed, "Okay, but you can't run around or cause trouble."

"Yes! We will definitely be obedient!" The two nodded in unison.

So, Lu Yanzheng drove the car and took Jiang Qinyu and the two children out.

But as soon as their carriage left, Yu Hanyan and Ruhua chased after them.

"General, General..." Yu Hanyan stood at the gate of the general's mansion, watching the carriage go away, and for a moment she felt extremely aggrieved.

She twisted the handkerchief and looked at Ruhua with tears in her eyes, "Why did the general treat me like this?"

In the past, he would send someone to ask her if she wanted to go out of the house to buy something.

"Miss, it's not appropriate for you to follow the general when he takes his wife and others out. Let's go back." Ruhua advised.

Although she also hoped that her master could marry the general, it was obvious that the general's heart was not with her at the moment. This matter could not be rushed and had to be handled slowly.

The carriage had left, so Yu Hanyan naturally could not do anything else. She went back with tears in her eyes, twisting her handkerchief.

At the concierge's side, Uncle Chen pointed his finger at Xiaowu's forehead and said, "Did you see that? What kind of person is the Miss Yu you're interested in?"

It was Xiaowu who just told Yu Hanyan and the others that Lu Yanzheng was going to take Jiang Qinyu out.

"Uncle Chen, you're such a fool! Miss Yu must have just wanted to go out and buy some things, so why is that not allowed?" Xiao Wu still felt that Uncle Chen was overthinking it. "Miss Yu is the widow of Lieutenant General Ling. How could she have any feelings for the general?"

Uncle Chen shook his head and sighed, "You really haven't experienced enough."

Nowadays, many widows remarry, not to mention that Yu Hanyan and Lieutenant General Ling couldn't even get married. Isn't it normal for her to find someone to rely on after being heartbroken?

In the past, Uncle Chen also thought that it was okay for Yu Hanyan to marry his general as a concubine, but now the general already has a wife, and his wife is such a woman of both virtue and talent, so he thinks it would be inappropriate for Yu Hanyan to be so tactless.

On the other side, Lu Yanzheng took Jiang Qinyu to the street.

Jiang Qinyu originally thought that he would take her directly to the well, but Lu Yanzheng parked the carriage in front of a jewelry store.

"Come down first." Lu Yanzheng lifted the car curtain and carried the two children down first as usual.

Jiang Qinyu looked at the shops around her and asked curiously, "You want to buy something?"

Lu Yanzheng said calmly: "Well, let's go in and take a look first."

Of course, he didn't want to buy it. When he saw Yu Hanyan, he remembered that Jiang Qinyu didn't have a single piece of jewelry on her body. It was okay before, but now he had to buy her a few pieces.

Jiang Qinyu didn't care. She just wanted to take a look. She didn't have the money to buy it anyway.

Walking into the store, the boss recognized Lu Yanzheng at a glance and quickly stepped forward to salute, "Greetings, General!"

"No need to be so polite. You go ahead and do your thing. My wife and I will just take a look around." Lu Yanzheng helped the man up and then walked around the store.

Jiang Qinyu also looked around with great interest. This was her first time to see an ancient jewelry store.

In modern times, countless gold and silver jewelry stores advertise all day long, and there are also many custom-made jewelry from high-end luxury brands. With her family's financial resources, she naturally has no shortage of these things.

It's just because she always goes against her scumbag father and never wears anything on weekdays, but her vision for things is still there.

In Jiang Qinyu's opinion, the products in this store are really not that good, at most they can be considered mid-range products.

At this moment, Lu Yanzheng suddenly handed over a jade hairpin, "What do you think of this?"

"Ah?" Jiang Qinyu blinked. "Do you want to buy it?"

Lu Yanzheng didn't comment, and just said, "Let's see first."

Jiang Qinyu didn't know what he was up to, so she gave him a fair assessment: "The materials aren't top quality, but the craftsmanship is excellent. If you like it, buy it."

I have to say that Lu Yanzheng has a good eye. The hairpin he picked is one of the best in the store.

When Lu Yanzheng heard this, the look in his eyes when he looked at her changed slightly.

Although he had lost his previous memories, he knew that given Jiang Qinyu's background, she shouldn't know much about things like jewelry. His original intention of handing it to her was just to see if she liked it.

So, is the woman in front of him really Jiang Qinyu who came from a small family?

Jiang Qinyu didn't notice Lu Yanzheng's subtle changes because her eyes were attracted by a pair of exquisite and small jade pendants.

This pair of jade pendants was made into a gourd shape, only the size of a little finger, and felt warm and smooth to the touch. It could be seen that the jade was of good quality, better than the hairpin that Lu Yanzheng had just held.

It’s just that there is a slight flaw on these two small gourds. There is a small black spot the size of a sesame seed on both of them.

What’s interesting is that these two black spots, one looks like a star and the other looks like a moon. Because they are very small, they look very delicate if you look closely.

"Boss," Jiang Qinyu asked, "How much is this?"

Although Lu Yanzheng asked the boss to go and do his work just now, how could the boss really leave? He has been following the two of them the whole time.

Hearing Jiang Qinyu's words, he quickly smiled and said, "If you like it, Madam, take it. This thing is made of the leftover material from a pair of jade bracelets. It's not worth much."

How could he not give her money? But it was Lu Yanzheng who gave her the money, and he even added a whole set of gold head ornaments, which made Jiang Qinyu stunned.

"Here, keep it first. Wear whichever one you like." Lu Yanzheng put the things in Jiang Qinyu's arms as he went out.

Jiang Qinyu was stunned for a moment, "For me?"
