Luan's return today

Chapter 54 How to choose?

"Send her back and watch her carefully." Jiang Yue ordered to the kneeling yamen servant.

Seeing that Jiang Yue did not pursue his breach of responsibility, the yamen servant quickly agreed, helped the woman and walked back, not daring to wonder what Jiang Yue would do next.

At this time, Jiang Yue and the yamen servants dug a big pit on the ground, found a box to put all the ashes into the pit, and buried them.

Then pick up a piece of wood and stand there to make a tombstone.

Jiang Yue turned her head to look at the crowd, "In the future, I will definitely replace this wooden tablet with a stone tablet, which will be immortal for thousands of years."

Everyone was not in a high mood and nodded sullenly, but Jiang Yue also knew that they were feeling uncomfortable at this moment, so she let them go without saying anything.

When Jiang Yue returned to the mansion, she saw Su Ze waiting at the gate of her courtyard, with an old woman standing beside her.

This old woman, Jiang Yue, was no stranger to her, she was the one who apologized to her that day when the congee was given out.

"Su Ze!"

Jiang Yue called out to Su Ze, and then saluted the old lady as a junior.

The old woman turned sideways quickly, avoiding the direction of Jiang Yue's salute.

"I can't, I can't, how can I, a commoner's wife, be honored by adults."

Seeing this, Su Ze was worried that the old woman would fall, so he immediately supported her, and smiled at Jiang Yue, "Grandmother is not a polite person, the general doesn't have to be like this."

Jiang Yue was slightly surprised, but she never thought that the woman in front of her was Su Ze's grandmother——Jiang Wei.

When Jiang Wei was young, she was also a man of influence, a famous embroiderer, and a business mind. It was she who founded the Sujia Embroidery Workshop and the founder of Double-sided Embroidery.

After becoming famous at a young age, she married her childhood sweetheart, Su Ze's grandfather.

But not long after, Su Ze's grandfather passed away, Jiang Wei raised the child to grow up, and at the same time managed Su's embroidery workshop to flourish.

It is rumored that Jiang Wei has a quirk. She doesn't like others to call her Mrs. Su, and she never introduces her to others, but only uses her surname as Jiang Wei.

Jiang Yue didn't think so, she felt that this was exactly Jiang Wei's personality, and the custom of leaving the country to marry with her husband's surname should have been abandoned long ago.

So Jiang Yue yelled at Jiang Wei according to Jiang Wei's preference, "Mrs. Jiang!"

Then he welcomed them into the courtyard gate, brewed a pot of tea and handed them to them, then said slowly, "Are you here this time for the fabric?"

Su Ze glanced at Jiang Wei, saw her nodding, and then said.

"Exactly."

"Yesterday we cleared out all the available fabrics at home, a total of [-] pieces, which should be able to meet our current needs in the city."

"If you just want to finish it day and night, it's impossible. Who do you think we will do it for first?"

Jiang Yue thought for a while, and kept twisting her fingers on her sleeves. After a long while, she finally spoke.

"Do it to grown men first."

Su Ze's eyes were surprised. She thought that Jiang Yue would be more inclined to vulnerable women and children, but she didn't expect to do it for adult men first.

After Jiang Wei heard this, she felt that this matter was inappropriate, she frowned, and couldn't help objecting.

"From the old woman's point of view, women and children should be satisfied first. Adult men need more fabrics. In this way, there will be more people who cannot wear clothes."

Jiang Yue smiled at Jiang, "Madam Jiang is right, but can you listen to my reason first."

"Of course, my lord, please tell me." Jiang Wei made a gesture of invitation.

Jiang Yue spoke slowly.

"The rain in the south of the Yangtze River is only temporarily stopped. The biggest problem we are currently facing is still flooding. If we want to stop frequent flooding, we have to build dams."

"Women are inferior to men in all aspects of physical strength. They are doing such strenuous things outside the house for a long time, how can we not warm them first."

Jiang Wei and Su Ze carefully calculated, secretly thinking in their hearts that it should be so, and then asked, "What about the rest?"

Jiang Yue took a sip from her teacup, moistened her throat, and replied.

"And for women, the biggest thing they do now is make clothes."

"But everyone must have their own little thoughts. If they are not put together and let people manage them, maybe someone will hide their secrets."

"We can first vacate the intact houses in the city, arrange them together, and supervise each other."

"It's easier for children to be simple-minded. Let's take them to the government office. There are still some vacant rooms inside that should be able to live there."

"Your Excellency is far-sighted, it's because the old lady is short-sighted." Hearing this, Jiang Wei was completely convinced by Jiang Yue, and couldn't help mentioning Su Ze.

"Ozawa, as long as you can learn [-]% of the adults, I can rest assured that I will hand over the Sujia Embroidery Workshop to you."

After finishing speaking, he didn't hear Su Ze's answer, turned his head and saw him smirking at Jiang Yue, then looked at Jiang Yue's calm expression, sighed, and shook his head.

Su Ze's mother was seriously ill and bedridden all year round. Su Ze was brought up by himself. Seeing him like this, how could he not know that he was already in spring, but how could a woman like Jiang Yue favor her grandson.

It's destined that this silly boy is hot for a shaved head, but the younger generation has their own good luck, so who cares!
Jiang Wei is very open-minded.

After Jiang Yue finished talking about business with them, chatted a few words about homework, and brought them to the gate of the courtyard.

After they left, someone went to call Li Xing over.

After a while, Li Xing walked in with a booklet in his arms, and when he saw Jiang Yue calling out to his lord, he sat down directly.

Seeing that he was no longer restrained, Jiang Yue was very satisfied, "How is it?"

"The subordinates will diagnose the pulse of the common people at the gate of the government office according to your instructions. However, there are too many people at present, and one subordinate is really not enough. Now I have only seen a hundred people."

Li Xing's face was full of melancholy, "There are thousands of people in the city right now, when will it be diagnosed!"

Jiang Yue felt that what Li Xing said was very reasonable, and this was indeed not an option, she pondered for a while.

"There should be some doctors in Jiangnan City. Compared with you, they must be much worse, but there should be no problem with taking the pulse, what do you think?"

Li Xing's eyes lit up, "I didn't expect that, I'm going to call them over now." He hurriedly got up and went out the door.

A quarter of an hour later, I saw four middle-aged men with beards walking in behind Li Xing.

The four of them bent their backs and didn't dare to look up at Jiang Yue. They were flustered, thinking that they hadn't committed anything, why Master Jiang summoned him suddenly.

Several of them looked at each other in blank dismay, but they couldn't understand why.

Jiang Yue glanced at them and asked Li Xing, "Only four?" According to her thinking, the more people the better.

Seeing Li Xing nodding, Jiang Yue sighed, but count how many there are, it's much faster than just Li Yuan alone.

Then he turned his head and said to the four of them, "You four don't need to be formal, please sit down."

When the four heard this, they looked at each other two by two, not daring to go forward. Seeing Jiang Yue's urging, they started to move, walked over, and sat down.
