Chapter 378
Qin Yanfeng left for half a month.

The road is far away, the horses and cars are slow, and it takes a long time. Jiang Xian is worried, but it is difficult to express it, and her mood becomes more and more depressed.

During the period, Fang Xuan asked Jiang Xian to apologize, but was teased by Jiang Xian's cold words.

Fang Xuan, a scholar, has a good face. Seeing Jiang Xian's firm attitude, he had no choice but to leave Shiliwan with injuries.

So far, Jiang Xian never saw Su Er again, nor did she see Fang Xuan and Fang Yao.

After another period of time, the sweltering weather gradually cooled down.The lotus flowers in the lotus pond withered one by one, and the fresh lotus pods slowly turned yellow, and the dried lotus seeds were embedded in the lotus pod holes, shaking and clanging.As autumn is approaching, the lotus root is fresh and delicious. Everyone in the village is busy digging lotus root in the lotus pond. Jiang Xian went to dig it with Grandma Meng after school.

If Qin Yanfeng came back now, the fried fish fillets with tender lotus root would be delicious.

Jiang Xian was thinking about this incident in her heart, and she heard the villagers chatting with Grandma Meng next to her, and only then did she learn that four battles had been fought on the border in just one month.

Yuzhou is located in the hinterland of the Dayuan territory, and Shiliwan is hidden in the deep mountains and old forests. It is difficult for the flames of war to reach here, so it creates an illusion for Jiang Xian that the world is peaceful.Both the Great Zhou Emperor and the Northern Yuan Emperor came from the Great Yuan royal family, and they fought all the way.Although there were four small battles, each time they were suppressed by the powerful Xiangguo.

These people are too far away from her.

Jiang Xian is an ordinary person, how can she not have time to care about these things, she might as well dig a few more lotus root joints.

After chatting with the villagers, Grandma Meng looked back at Jiang Xian in a depressed mood, and couldn't help comforting Qin Yanfeng in a low voice, saying that he would definitely come back.

Jiang Xian also thought so in her heart.

The delay in Qin Yanfeng's return must be due to some delay at home, and she believed that he was not a liar.

The next day, Jiang Xian received a message from Xiao Ling that Duan Jinqiu wanted to order the last batch of colored silk before autumn.The weather is getting colder, and the output of Huangbai fruit is getting lower and lower, which can barely meet Duan Jinqiu's demand this time.Jiang Xian entrusted Butcher Wang's father with the teaching of the rural school, calculated the money by the day, and freed up time to work on dyeing silk.A week later, the silk thread was shipped to Hui County.

Jiang Xian thought that this time it would be the same as before, delivery, inspection, and payment.Unexpectedly, three days later, Xiao Ling came to Shiliwan to find her in person, saying that the batch of magic color silk had been seized by the Hui County Yamen.

"Why was it impounded?"

Jiang Xian was puzzled.

Xiao Ling frowned and said, "The yamen suspects that the colored silk is dyed with poisonous pine mushrooms."

The poisonous shiitake mushroom is purple in color, but it is highly poisonous. If you really use this kind of mushroom to dye silk, people who wear the poisonous mushroom silk fabric will die slowly.

Jiang Xian asked: "Have you explained it? We use phoenix fruit, not poisonous pine mushroom, for our magic color silk."

"I explained, but the people in the government didn't listen." Xiaoling glanced at Jiang Xian, wondering if she had been tripped up by someone, and guessed, "It should be that you didn't give the people in the yamen any favors, and now you deliberately find fault Here we come. How about this, you will go to Hui County with me later, pack some money to get some gifts, and send them to the county magistrate."

Jiang Xian pursed her lips, unwilling.

After all, Xiao Ling is Duan Jinqiu's maid, and it's not uncommon for him to intrigue in the house.Small indifference leads to big plans. For the sake of long-term development in the future, she advised: "A strong dragon will not overwhelm a snake. You have no power or power here, and things that can be settled with money are nothing to worry about."

When Jiang Xian heard this, she felt quite reasonable.

She said: "You wait here for a while, I'm going to change clothes, let's go into the city together."
