My Loyal and Lovely Husband

Chapter 169: Conspiracy



She had built the Porridge Store for the longest time, and it was also the best of all Porridge Store. To a certain extent, it helped Wang Hai lighten the burden, so there was no one to mess with the Porridge Store she had built. It was said that Wang Hai was patrolling in Porridge Store to prevent people from causing trouble.

“I’ll go back. That’s not right. Also, what about the crops on the manor?”

Aiyo, hey, she was really confused. She could forget such an important thing.

“Rice, sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes are already ripe. Let someone pack them up, and Qing Liang, let someone go to the mountain to find them. They’re almost growing up.”

Yuan Treasure looked at her and said very seriously.

Jin Weiwei nodded and said, “Let’s sprinkle the rice again. I think it can mature again in this weather. And Qing Kui, how many kinds can you plant? There’s also sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, and so on. By the way, how’s the rice price on the market?”

Now that Cheng Yu had entered the prison, the price of the rice noodles must have an impact.

“The price of the rice has been raised to 45 pieces. The price is 50 pieces and the rest is between 35.”

Jin Weiwei frowned. She had only been out for a week. Without Cheng Yu’s restraint, these people started to do as one pleases. If this went on, the people in Lin County would complain and Wang Hai’s official journey would be over.

Since it would threaten Wang Hai’s official journey, would Wang Hai not care?

Something must have happened. Otherwise, Wang Hai’s order to go to the sea would be enough to listen to the people of the Lin County Conglomerate.

“I got it. Put all the food from the manor into the storeroom. Don’t break the congee of the Porridge Store. Also, Xiao Qing, little Rich’s life will be yours in the past two days.”

“Alright, Donglai, don’t worry.”

She couldn’t let little Rich appear. On the way back, she thought about it. Ever since Gongsun Hong came into little Rich’s house, her expression changed. It was not a coincidence that he met a pursuit at night. The only thing that made sense was that Gongsun Hong or the person behind him had a grudge with little Rich.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Even though her actions were useless, Gongsun Hong wouldn’t be able to deal with them in in a flagrant way.

Jin Weiwei believed that little Rich and their men would not be bad.

With that thought, Jin Weiwei’s fatigue disappeared in an instant. She wanted to go to the street to take a look.

With that thought, she went out of the room and didn’t notice that the Yuan Treasure was behind her.

When they reached the edge of the usual place of refugees, there were suddenly several hungry refugees from sallow and emaciated.

“Madam, give me some food. My child hasn’t eaten for a few days, so he’s about to starve to death.”

An old woman, who couldn’t see her face clearly, knelt in front of Jin Weiwei and screamed miserably.

Jin Weiwei was really shocked. She thought these people were here to kidnap her but she didn’t expect them to come for help.

“There are not only porridge released by the official family, but also some rich merchants who are cooking porridge. How come you have nothing to eat?”

After calming down, Jin Weiwei frowned and asked. Even if the porridge in the Porridge Store of rich merchants was scarce, they could still drink enough water.

“Madam, you don’t know that there are only a few refugees in the City. We are all refugees who have been stopped outside the City. We are not allowed to enter. Many of the porridge released by the government are mixed with sand and grass, so we can’t eat it at all. Right now, how many people have died outside the City.”

Jin Weiwei frowned. Wang Hai wouldn’t do such a dig one’s own grave, would he?

She understood that only a small number of refugees would enter the city. Wang Hai was probably afraid that something bad might happen. If it were her, she would have done the same. However, mixing soil and grass in the congee would have killed people.

“Who cares about the refugees outside the city?”

Jin Weiwei asked again. The old woman quickly replied, “It’s magistrate Xu. He’s the one who cares.”

No wonder, if it was Xu Ziqi, everything made sense. magistrate Xu’s behavior when Cheng Yu was framed was very strange. She also saw that magistrate Xu and Zhixian were not very close to each other. Now that Zhixian was about to move, magistrate Xu would definitely cause trouble as the enemy of Zhixian.

Jin Weiwei searched her body and found that there were only a few pieces of silver. She put all of the silver in the old woman’s hands and said, “Auntie, there are only two silver items I brought today. Take them to buy some food for your child. It’s best to see the physician.”

The old woman and several refugees behind her were all shed tears of gratitude. Jin Weiwei nodded and found a carriage to go home.

Now that Lin Shui County was in a mess, it was best for her to be careful.

……

First grade Xuan.

Gongsun Hong, dressed in blue embroidered clothes, raised an eyebrow and asked, “Has everything been done?”

“Well done, I’ve said everything I should.”

“Mmm, very good, let’s go down.”

Gongsun Hong looked at Ma Chengfu who was sitting beside him.

“After a few years, Boss Ma’s complexion has gotten better.”

Gongsun Hong chuckled, revealing a sinister aura under his gentle face.

Ma Chengfu couldn’t help trembling and smiled, “What did Master say? I have the ability to do this today. Isn’t it promoted by Master?”

Back then, when he was caught in the business of selling women like that, it was Gongsun Hong who sold him. However, he also became Gongsun Hong’s lackey, and on the surface, he was just doing things for Xu Ziqi.

“Since you know that I am your Master, why do you want to touch Cheng Yu without me giving an order?”

Gongsun Hong sneered, his long and warm fingers circled the tea, as if he had a layer of light.

“Mistress, didn’t you always want to take down Lin Shui County?” If you become the president of the Lin County Conglomerate now, isn’t that beneficial and harmless to Master?

Ma Chengfu was anxious. He thought that he was still holding the evidence of buying and selling women in Gongsun Hong’s hands, which made him afraid.

“Is this what Xu Ziqi Xu Xu gave you? Boss Ma, when did your gaze become so short?

“Xiao… Xiao…”

Ma Chengfu felt guilty and didn’t dare to face Gongsun Hong. Gongsun Hong had not come to Shui County these years, and he was helping to manage Gongsun Hong’s business. Gradually, he forgot what kind of person Gongsun Hong was.

“I don’t like unobedient dogs.”

After that, Ma Chengfu fell from his seat and hurriedly climbed to Gongsun Hong’s lap to beg, “Young Master, please spare the little one. I will definitely keep my guard and listen to Young Master. Please forgive the little one.”

The air in the private room seemed to freeze. After a long time, Ma Chengfu didn’t hear Gongsun Hong’s voice.

Just as he was about to raise his head, Gongsun Hong said, “Get up. I want you to do something.”

“Young Master, please tell me.”

Ma Chengfu lowered his head again, his whole body trembling like a beggar.

“Jin Weiwei, do you know each other?”

“Jin Weiwei?”

Ma Chengfu read it once. Why did he feel a little familiar?
