It was a busy day just signing the contract and distributing the money, and we all had lunch at the clan leader's house.
Shenjia Village is not big, with sixty households. Except for Mrs. Wang and Shen Da and Shen Er who have sold out all their land, everyone else signed the contract and received money.
After finishing all this work, it was around three or four o'clock in the afternoon. I walked around the winery and then went home.
The next day was the day set to return to the county. After breakfast, Shen Yue and Ji Xun went to the winery to get wine.
The Maotai wine produced by their winery has become famous, and Fengming Restaurant's business has become even more prosperous. Many diners even come to Lingzhou City deliberately just to taste Fengming Restaurant's Maotai wine.
Shen Yuyu planned to bring two jars each to Dean Yao and County Magistrate Sun to give them a taste.
In order to prevent the wine jar from being damaged on the carriage, Uncle Shen and his second uncle carefully wrapped straw ropes around the wine jar and placed it firmly on the carriage.
Aunt Zhou and Aunt Li were going to town to buy things, so they got on the carriage together.
On the carriage, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Li started chatting, first about spring plowing, and then about Mrs. Wang's house.
"Hexiang ran away, and I heard that he took away all of Shen Yunlai's money." Aunt Zhou said.
"When did it happen? How much money was taken away?" Even Aunt Li didn't know about this.
"Just last night, it was a total of six thousand liang. Didn't I see Mrs. Wang and Shen Yunlai aggressively going to Hexiang's parents' house to ask for someone early this morning? With so much money, how can Mrs. Wang spare her?'
"If you ask me, Shen Yunlai is really not a man. He watched his women being bullied by so many robbers and didn't give up. He deserves to be single.'
"Aunt Zhou and Aunt Li, what's going on?" Shen Yuyu was too busy these two days and really didn't mind such noisy matters. When she asked, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Li explained what happened in detail.
"It shouldn't be difficult to catch him. He Xiang said that she saw a black mole as big as a soybean on the chin of the bandit leader~~"
"I'm afraid it's difficult to detect just one mole, and I can't see the face.'
After hearing these words, Shen Yuyu immediately thought of a person in his mind, the guard at the Baijiacun Iron Mine who poisoned Uncle Bai. Doesn't he fit this description? Shen Yuyu kept these words in his heart.
After sending Aunt Zhou and Aunt Li to Dahe Town, Shen Yuyu and Ji Xun went to the county.
After arriving in the county, he didn't go to the restaurant. Instead, he went directly to Qinglin Academy and gave him a few jars of wine to save him the inconvenience of moving it around.
"Dean Yao, if you don't teach the children well, why are you always hanging around outside holding your beard."
As soon as the carriage stopped at the entrance of the academy, he saw the dean coming out of the academy. Shen Yuyu was joking at him. It was so casual for the old and the young to get together.
Dean Yao replied with a smile, "Look what this girl said? Didn't I see Ah Xun driving the carriage over? I hurried out to greet you. What good things did you bring to the old man?" As he spoke, he walked to the car with a look of anticipation. Look within.
"Wine? You girl~~ are more considerate than your own daughter." Dean Yao said without being polite, picked up a jar and prepared to leave.
"Is one jar enough? It seems like Dean Yao doesn't like wine that much."
"There's another jar? Then I'll take them all." Dean Yao went in with two jars of wine in his arms, contentedly. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to go in and have a look at Ji Feng, but then he thought about it and they would retire tomorrow. , that’s all. After leaving Qinglin Academy, the carriage turned to the County Magistrate’s Office.
"Hey~ Mr. Ji, Miss Shen, long time no see." Butler Sun stepped forward with a smile and enthusiastically took the two jars of wine from Ji Xun's hand, "Is this the newly brewed Maotai in your restaurant? My master has it. It's a blessing.'
After Butler Li welcomed the two of them in, he took Ji Xun to Magistrate Sun's study, while Shen Yuyu went to Mrs. Sun's yard.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Mrs. Sun stepped forward with a smile on her face and took Shen Yuyu's hand, "Girl Shen, you are back. You haven't been to the county for more than a month, right? Come and sit down."
Mrs. Sun took Shen Yu's hand and sat down in the courtyard. She then ordered Grandma Liu to serve good tea and put out exquisite fruits. Then she said cheerfully: "There's a letter from Mengmeng.'
"How is she?" Shen Yuyu still misses Sun Mengmeng and is always worried about her.
"Bring the letter." Mrs. Sun ordered Nanny Liu, and Nanny Liu brought a letter and handed it to Shen Yuyu.
"Take a look." Mrs. Sun sipped her tea and smiled happily, as if there was some happy event.
Shen Yue opened the letter.
The letter said that Sun Mengmeng was given the title of Liangdi and the prince was quite fond of her.
"Sister Mengmeng is so lucky!" Shen Yue said happily and looked down.
Looking at Shen Yuyu, he suddenly stood up: "Here, treating His Highness the Crown Prince? I, how can I have that ability?"
The letter said that when Sun Mengmeng learned that the prince had an old illness, she casually mentioned Shen Yuyu. Unexpectedly, the prince admitted the truth and decided to go to Wantian County incognito to seek medical treatment.
Shen Yuhu couldn't calm down anymore, Prince! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Taisheng Kingdom! How noble is his status? How could she, a commoner, treat someone with such a noble status?
"Nothing, nothing." Mrs. Sun quickly stood up and patted Shen Yuyu's back gently, "Mengmeng said, it doesn't matter if it looks good or not, I won't blame you."
After a pause, he pointed to the letter again: "It says that we will leave on March 27th. Today is the first day of April, and we are already on the way."
"Okay." Shen Yuyu knew it was too late to say anything, and could only wait until the prince arrived and checked his condition before speaking.
After talking about these things, Shen Yuyu felt Mrs. Sun's pulse. After feeling the pulse, she pressed her lower abdomen carefully, and then sat down to prescribe medicine.
"Madam still needs to take medicine for a month to fully recover. You must not be careless just because you are in good health."
"I know." Mammy Liu responded, "They all take the medicine on time and in the right amount. Madam has suffered so much before, how can she dare to be careless now? They all take the medicine conscientiously."
"That's good." Shen Yuyu wrote the prescription and handed it to Nanny Liu. Afterwards, she chatted for a few words and left. When she arrived at the gate, Ji Xun was already waiting there, holding Shen Yuyu's hand. boarding.
"Just now, Magistrate Sun and I talked about the case of Mrs. Wang's money being robbed." Ji Xun said. He had also heard the previous conversation between Aunt Zhou and Aunt Li. The leader of the robber had a big mole on his chin. He Also deeply memorable.
"How is it? Can Magistrate Sun find out?"
Ji Xun shook his head: "Shen Yunlai concealed the fact that He Xiang was bullied out of fear of embarrassment. He also didn't mention that the robber leader had a mole on his chin. Magistrate Sun said it would be difficult to investigate."
"That robber leader is the guard who killed Uncle Bai. I can't let him go."
"Don't worry, Yu Yu. My husband has a way to catch him. Doesn't Mrs. Wang still have a large sum of money in her hand? Find someone to let the news out."
Shen Yuyu nodded and led them to the village to catch turtles in a jar.
After a moment of silence, Shen Yuyu said, "Axun, I have something else to tell you. His Royal Highness is coming to Wantian County to seek medical treatment from me! He is already on his way."
