General Grim wants to post every day

Chapter 31
After Ye Lingce came back, Jiang Xiuxiu stood proudly at the door waiting for him.

"I have found the source of water for the general, shouldn't you keep your promise and give me a hundred taels of gold?"

Ye Lingce obviously couldn't believe that Jiang Xiuxiu found the water source so quickly.

"Take General Ben to have a look."

Ye Lingce followed Jiang Xiuxiu to the Lingquan, and looked at Karez in surprise.

He asked in disbelief, "Did you dig this well?"

Jiang Xiuxiu nodded confidently, "Yes."

Ye Lingce looked around Karez several times, and finally nodded in satisfaction.

"This idea is really good. If it is widely promoted, you don't have to worry about this year's harvest."

He continued, "Doctor Jiang found out that you are really omnipotent. I don't know how much you have."

Jiang Xiuxiu sensed the temptation in Ye Lingce's words, and she immediately smiled modestly.

"General, you are overrated. No matter how good I am, I can't compare to you, General."

After the Karez incident, Ye Lingce was in a good mood, not only exempting Jiang Xiuxiu from the hundred taels of gold owed to him, but also rewarding her with 150 taels of gold.

After Jiang Xiuxiu got the heavy gold, her pupils were trembling.

However, she quickly struck while the iron was hot, put down the gold and walked in front of Ye Lingce.

"General, according to the regulations of Zhenxiguan, whoever mines Chu's well will belong to him. So can the spring water I mined yesterday be mine?"

With the Karez well, the problem of drought can be solved to a great extent, and naturally one does not need to care about the ownership of the water source.

Jiang Xiuxiu immediately went to the government to register after hearing this, and the Lingquan will belong to her from now on.

With money in her hands, she immediately bought green vegetables and fruits that she was reluctant to eat at the market, and also bought clothes for children.

A few days ago, a tattered little beggar fainted from hunger in front of her door.

She couldn't bear it, so she placed the boy in the courtyard, and planned to let him go after his injuries healed.

As soon as Jiang Xiuxiu returned to the courtyard, the boy she rescued, Xiaohu, ran over excitedly.

"Sister Xiu'er, you are back! Come and see what I found outside!" Xiaohu excitedly pulled Jiang Xiuxiu's arm and walked inside.

As soon as she walked in, she smelled a strange smell, and saw something was boiling in the pot on the fire.

"What's cooking in the tiger pot?"

Xiaohu took out a bowl from the pot and handed it to Jiang Xiuxiu, "It's mushrooms. I saw a lot of people picking mushrooms today. I saw a lot of unpicked ones behind them, so I picked them all. Those mushrooms are beautiful. There are red ones, yellow ones, purple ones..."

Jiang Xiuxiu shook her hand holding the soup bowl. These beautifully colored mushrooms are all poisonous mushrooms!

She quickly poured out the mushroom soup in the bowl and pot, and asked Xiaohu when she came back, "Did you drink the mushroom soup in the pot?"

Xiaohu shook his head, "I haven't had a drink yet, I want to wait for Sister Xiu'er to come back and have a drink together, but...a person who claimed to be Sister Xiu'er's mother came at the door today, so I brought her in."

Jiang Xiuxiu frowned suddenly, didn't Mrs. Liu have already left with Jiang Mingyuan, why did she come back?

"Then where is she now?"

Xiaohu stared at his big innocent eyes, and opened his mouth nervously.

"Seeing that I made mushroom soup, she snatched it and drank a big bowl, then ran out. I don't know where she went. What's wrong with Miss Xiu'er?"

Jiang Xiuxiu clenched her brows with a headache, this Mrs. Liu really has nothing to do to find trouble for her!
"This mushroom is poisonous, we must find my mother quickly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Jiang Xiuxiu and Xiaohu ran out in a hurry, searched around the area, and finally found Mrs. Liu before dark.

Like a lunatic, Mrs. Liu ran around in other people's crop fields, still talking nonsense.

"Ahaha... I am the prime minister's wife. These beautiful clothes and jewelry belong to my mother. My mother wants to live in a big house..."

"Mother! Be sober!!" Jiang Xiuxiu quickly grabbed the crazy Liu Shi, and she stabbed the silver needle into her acupuncture point, and she gradually calmed down.

But Mrs. Liu has already ruined their crops to such an extent that food is worth more than gold in Zhenxiguan.

A few local farmers rushed out with a big wolf dog, pointing at Mrs. Liu and yelling, "Catch that crazy woman! Make her lose money!!"

Jiang Xiuxiu stood in front of Mrs. Liu and explained far-fetchedly.

"I'm really sorry, my mother has some brain problems, I will compensate you for your losses."

The farmer shouted angrily, "What are you going to pay for? This is our family's one-year ration, and now your mother has ruined it. What will we eat for the winter?"

In such a barren place, if there is not enough grain storage in winter, they will be starved to death.

He also said, "You must pay us twice the amount of food before winter! Otherwise, you will pay us ten times the price!"

Jiang Xiuxiu frowned, the crops that had been hustled by the Liu family were quite a lot, so paying ten times the amount of compensation, wouldn't that be a sky-high price.

Although she has some money now, most of it still has to be given to Ye Lingce. After all, the space bracelet will crash if it is not charged for three days.

Jiang Xiuxiu opened her mouth and agreed, "Before the winter, I will definitely give you the same amount of food as compensation."

……

……

After returning, Jiang Xiuxiu took out the detoxification pill and fed it to Mrs. Liu.

Liu Shi slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes gradually became clear.

She grasped Jiang Xiuxiu's sleeve tightly like brown sugar.

"Daughter, save mother quickly. Your father will feed me to the wolves and beat me every day if he doesn't want me! He has been in collusion with Lu Yu for a long time, and I ran back with great difficulty."

Mrs. Liu cried with snot and tears, "No matter how you say it, I am your own mother!! You can't ignore me!!"

Jiang Xiuxiu got a headache from being quarreled by Mrs. Liu, but Mrs. Liu was indeed Yuanshen's biological mother, so she couldn't ignore it.

In the end she said coldly, "It's okay to keep you, but if you dare to communicate with the court again, or make any troubles, I will never forgive you!"

Mrs. Liu nodded immediately, "Okay, okay!"

Xiaohu pulled Jiang Xiuxiu's sleeves aggrievedly, "Sister Xiu'er, I'm sorry, it's all because of me that things became like this."

"It's okay, there is always a solution." Jiang Xiuxiu pursed her lips tightly.

She suddenly turned around and looked at Xiaohu, "By the way, Xiaohu, I don't think your accent sounds like someone from Zhenxiguan. Where was your home before?"

"Me?" Xiaohu's clean and pure eyes suddenly flashed an imperceptible vigilance.

He lowered his eyes aggrieved, "My family used to live in the capital, but some accidents happened later, and I was the only one left, and I drifted all the way here."

Jiang Xiuxiu took a deep look at Xiaohu, "Oh, really?"

She always felt that Xiaohu had a kind of maturity beyond his peers.
