Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 117 The only people you can leave everything behind to find are your family
He Jiuniang immediately smiled flatteringly: "I really earned this today. I went to see a doctor for the county magistrate's lady today, and the magistrate rewarded me for it."

Is the county magistrate so generous?

Mrs. Sun and a group of female relatives all looked at her curiously. He Jiuniang nodded without blushing and said, "Of course, otherwise I can become a county magistrate?"

After being deceived by her, Mrs. Sun still accepted the money, and then asked her for one tael of silver, counting the [-]% she left for herself.

Since she took the initiative to offer this, Mrs. Sun naturally had to accept it, otherwise the other two daughters-in-law would have some complaints over time. After all, He Jiuniang didn't make clothes, nor did she cook or wash dishes.

Of course, it is obvious to everyone that she is responsible for drawing pictures and thinking about other business matters, but the rule that [-]% of the time is handed over to the public was set before. If the family wants to stay harmonious, this rule cannot be broken.

With this, the other people admired her even more. If it had been anyone else, they might have secretly hidden the money, but He Jiuniang did not, and instead took it out generously.

Starting from the next day, He Jiuniang began to boil the ointment. The smell of the medicine was very strong and could not be concealed at all. Cui'er and others who were making clothes at home thought someone in their family was sick, and they were very concerned for a while.

The Lu family originally didn't want to tell anyone about He Jiuniang's medical studies. After all, it was just the beginning. If more people knew about it, someone would inevitably come looking for her.

It's not that He Jiuniang is not good at learning, but that she is in the learning stage at this time, and the Lu family doesn't want anyone to disturb her.

But now that Cui'er and the others asked about it, they really couldn't hide it, so they told her anyway.

"My third daughter-in-law is very capable. The manager of the medical clinic thought she was smart and accepted her as her apprentice. But this is just the beginning. Remember not to spread the word!"

Mrs. Sun warned coldly, and Cui'er nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, aunt, we won't talk nonsense! By the way, isn't our family doing a medicinal business? With Jiu Niang's relationship, won't our medicinal materials be better in the future? Are you worried about sales?”

Cui'er is smart. Before, she collected medicinal materials and sold them to the Lu family. She was even worried that the Lu family would not be able to sell them and it would fall into her hands. But now that she has a relationship with He Jiuniang, she no longer has such worries.

Hearing what she said, the eyes of the other people were also bright. If the medicine business can start in the future, they can also get a share of the pie. The men are taking care of the medicinal materials in the wasteland, and the women are in the Lu family. They work in workshops, and after two years when life gets better, they can also send their children to school.

Thinking about this, I felt so happy.

Mrs. Sun knew that Cui'er didn't have so many bad intentions, and that here were either the female relatives of the Lu family, or those who had been brought out from the bandits' den before, and they were all trustworthy people, so she nodded: "It's just about the medicinal materials. My boss must have told you men that the technology is not mature yet, so if you want to plant it, you have to wait until next year."

"We know, sister-in-law, don't worry! Even if we can't plant in this wasteland for the time being, we can still go to the mountains to find it. Jiu Niang taught us before."

Cui'er agreed quickly, her eyes narrowed. Her family was living the best life now. If it continued like this, she would be able to pay back the money she owed the Lu family next year.

Although there are no men in the Qi family, and they are not clearing wasteland at the moment, both mother and daughter are making clothes in the workshop, and they can still earn twenty pence a day. Not only are they guaranteed to eat and drink, but they can also save money. There is no need to worry.

Southern Thailand.

A horse came from Juechen, and someone immediately came forward to greet it. Sun Qi jumped off the horse, threw the reins to his men, and then quickly entered the yard.

"Brother, you are finally back!"

Qin Jian was studying the recent situation in the Nantai Dynasty in the study. When he heard the noise outside, he hurried out to check. When he saw Sun Qi, he almost shed tears of bitterness.

He had never known that dealing with things alone could cause someone to collapse so much. During Sun Qi's absence, he almost went bald.

Facts have proved that his brain is not as good as Sun Qi's. He must find an easy job in the future!

Sun Qi nodded, took the bowl of water sent by his subordinates, drank it in one gulp, and ordered: "One more bowl!" He almost died of thirst along the way.

"How's it going? Did you find any family during this trip?"

Although Sun Qi didn't say it, Qin Jian just felt that the only person who could make him lose his mind and leave everything behind was his family.

"No."

He didn't deny it.

Qin Jian sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and advised: "No news is the best news. Maybe they have gone to a safe place long ago. In another year and a half, Nantai will be completely defeated." If the court situation becomes chaotic, we will be able to retreat successfully. When the time comes, I will help you find it together."

They have deployed very well over the years and have never made any mistakes, but the progress has been a little slow.

If Sun Qi hadn't directly killed Prince Nantai, they would have stayed here for at least three to five years.

Sun Qi didn't say that he had asked Wei Yu to help find him. He didn't want too many people to know about his family because his identity was too dangerous.

Qin Jian naturally understood, so he never asked too deeply, just like Sun Qi never asked him about extremely secretive things.

Just as he was talking, an urgent report came from outside. Sun Qi opened the letter and found out that King Chen was assassinated on his way to Changzhou.

"His Royal Highness was assassinated?"

As soon as he saw the first few words, Qin Jian suddenly felt like a rooster with fried feathers.

Sun Qi ignored him and read the full text carefully before handing him the letter: "Your Highness is fine. There is no danger."

After speaking, he stood quietly aside, waiting for Qin Jian to finish reading.

"Those people have wolf fang marks on their bodies, and they are the same group of people who were chasing me before!"

Qin Jian gritted his teeth angrily, who are these people?

The previous group of people had been chasing him to Changzhou since he left Nantai, but this time the people Chen Wang met seemed to have followed him from the capital, which meant that people from this organization were spread all over the place, and it was a huge organization.

Sun Qi also thought of this, frowned and said, "Someone in the court must have paid to kill someone."

"But what kind of organization would a person with such a tattoo be? I've never heard of it before!"

Qin Jian's face was full of trouble. Generally speaking, such an organization is the easiest to be seen through. However, they were assassinated twice in a row, but they did not find out the details of the other party.

Sun Qi said: "No matter what kind of organization they are, they only use money to do things. The key point is to find out the mastermind behind the scenes. Otherwise, His Highness's trip to Changzhou will not go smoothly."

King Chen had a good reputation both in the court and among the people. This time, someone was exaggerating the death of Prince Nantai, which deepened the emperor's fear of King Chen. There were too many people in the court who wanted King Chen's life.

Qin Jian said angrily: "If you ask me, it must be Prince Jing!"
