Chapter 207 What?Something happened in the school
Jiang Shuangyue's face froze, and she lowered her head to look at the little breast dumpling in her arms. At this time, the noise outside became even louder.

"Jiujiu, it's windy outside. You wait in the car for your godmother, okay?"

Fu Jiujiu knew Jiang Shuangyue's worries, so he simply stayed in the car to see what was going on, and then said, "Okay."

Jiang Shuangyue curled her lips and covered her with some clothes before going down.

"Look, isn't that the county magistrate's wife? Stop arguing and listen to what she says."

Jiang Shuangyue looked at the men in front of her. They were not wearing much in the cold weather, and some were even shirtless. They were having a very unpleasant time with Master Duan, the supervisor.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Shuangyue's voice was low but powerful.

After a while, he waved his hands to the chattering workers and gave them a warning look. After it became quieter, he replied, "Madam, it's nothing, they are all unruly people. Why are you here today?" "

Jiang Shuangyue was not an ordinary boudoir girl, nor was she a covert person. How could she be easily put off by Master Duan's few words?

She sighed and looked at the leading man, "Don't be afraid, what is going on?"

The man glanced at Master Duan, and Jiang Shuangyue looked displeased at Master Duan, who was about to threaten the man not to talk nonsense.

"Madam...hehe...it's really nothing serious. Look, it's a mess here. The wind is still strong today. You'd better go back. When the construction is completed, it won't be too late for you to come and take a look."

Jiang Shuangyue did not look at him, but said coldly: "Master Duan, the school is of great importance. It is not my style to blindly hide something when something happens. If he knows, I'm afraid you..."

Others don't know, how could Mr. Duan not know that the county magistrate has a sharp ear? Of course it's not that this lady is tough and unreasonable, it's just that she is too knowledgeable and reasonable.

He let out a long sigh and said, "Madam, please stop asking. Even if the magistrate doesn't allow me to tell you, please don't embarrass me."

"Master?" Jiang Shuangyue narrowed her eyes, what on earth is going on?

I don't care about so many shirtless men, as long as there is someone who can make the decision.

"Madam, since you asked, please just tell me straight away. Is this school going to be built?"

Jiang Shuangyue's heart "thumped". At the same time, the little breast dumpling sitting in the car waiting to eat melon also straightened his body and listened carefully to what was going on.

"Alas... I don't want you to say it?"

The man glared at Master Duan, "It's not you who dares to wait for the rice to fall into the pot."

The man muttered: "Madam, I know that you and the county magistrate are both good people. If we had a better life and had spare money at home, we would not do this. But there is really no way. Without wages, the couple at home will Gotta drink the northwest wind.”

"No money?" Jiang Shuangyue frowned, and the stone in her heart suddenly relaxed. She thought it was because the school was not allowed to be built.

Master Duan lowered his head in embarrassment. The master is a good official with a clear mind, but if he is as greedy as others, he will not be like this.

As long as we can still build a school, that's not a problem. Isn't it just money?
Jiang Shuangyue smiled again and said softly: "Don't worry, everyone, your wages will be paid tomorrow. You can work with peace of mind. If you are not worried, then... it will be fine in the afternoon."

She said this, which made the workers feel embarrassed. They all said that it would be fine tomorrow and there was no need to be in such a hurry.

Jiang Shuangyue nodded, then turned to ask Master Duan how much money he still lacked.

Master Duan sighed, because this school is a loss-making business. Even if poor families have money, they will not spend money to send their daughters to study and learn literacy. Therefore, even if the school is built, they will basically not get any money.

Building materials, tables, chairs and benches, plus workers' wages, and some miscellaneous items, are still short of 2000 taels.

This does not include the things that will be used by teachers in the future to teach crafts.

Girls' school is a bottomless pit.

2000 taels may not be said to be much, but may be said to be less, but it is also a lot.

Originally, Zou Guangquan could have reached out to the wealthy businessmen and gentry in the county like other officials, but he did not want to use his power to oppress others, and those people felt that this was not a profitable matter, so they did not reach out. "Godmother?"

Jiang Shuangyue was interrupted from her thoughts by the sweet sound of her breasts. No matter how depressed she was, all her sorrow disappeared when she saw this innocent little face.

Since you are just short of money, then go find it.

Jiang Shuangyue waved to the little breast dumpling, "Jiujiu, do you want to come down?"

Fu Jiujiu nodded, and she saw a faint layer of sadness between Jiang Shuangyue's eyebrows.

The distance was quite far, and she guessed from the shape of Master's lips that there might still be a shortfall of 2000 taels of silver.

A county magistrate was actually embarrassed by the 2000 taels of silver.

If I tell you, I'm afraid someone else's official position will make them laugh out loud.

But this also shows that her godfather is a good official.

After getting out of the car, the little-breasted dumpling ran towards Jiang Shuangyue, stretched out his small hand, and held her slightly cold big hand.

Jiang Shuangyue didn't want these annoying things to affect Xiao Naituanzi's mood, so he took her to visit the unfinished school.

She raised her slender hands and introduced Xiaotai Tuanzi to what each place was used for.

It's not finished yet, and there's nothing good to see. Besides, Jiang Shuangyue is a man of his word. Since he promised to pay his wages tomorrow, he must pay them tomorrow.

She still had most of the day to raise money.

On the way back, every time Fu Jiujiu looked at Jiang Shuangyue, she was deep in thought.

Probably thinking about money.

After Jiang Shuangyue returned home, he hurried back to his room and looked around.

Not long after, Zou Guangquan came back after receiving the news.

He looked at the jewelry on the table, feeling both happy and heartbroken, "Madam, what are you doing?"

Jiang Shuangyue didn't bother to look back at him, "Where did the pair of jade bracelets my mother gave me go?"

That was the dowry given to her by her mother-in-law.

"Madam, madam, stop it quickly. I'll figure out a way to deal with the money. How can I let you touch these things?"

Zou Guangquan pulled Jiang Shuangyue over and sat down on her shoulders, "I don't want you to know because I'm afraid you might have ideas about these things. If my mother-in-law finds out about this, how can I have the honor to see her in the future?"

Jiang Shuangyue disagreed, "Why are you so shameless? Master, these things are all external things. Besides, you built the school to help me realize my dream. How can I let you face it alone?"

Zou Guangquan shook his head, "Then these things can't be moved. I said I'll find a way."

"If you had your way, you wouldn't wait until today."

"Then I'll go..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Shuangyue's hand covered his cool lips, "Don't go, my man won't give up for five buckets of rice, not even 2000 taels, just listen to me, that's it. "

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and at the same time, Fu Jiujiu's childish voice also came, "Godmother, can I come in?"
