Don't panic when fleeing the famine, the peasant girl is busy farming

Chapter 227

Jiang Mingtang was taken away by Ma Danian.

He got involved in a life lawsuit, and for a while, he couldn't get out of the prison.

You Ruoxue didn't know anything about this side at all, she stretched her neck and waited for Jiang Mingtang in the capital, waiting for him to bring Xiao Xinghe back and be her first face-to-face.

King Yan and Prime Minister You were also waiting, waiting for the people they sent to bring the news of Xiao Xinghe and Jiang Erya's death back to the capital.

Jiang Erya sneered, just wait, even if you wait until the day you close your eyes, my Xing Xing and I will not die.

We will live for a long time, more nourishing than anyone else.

Ma Danian took Jiang Mingtang away, and recruited some villagers from Xinglin Village, and dragged the twelve poisoned corpses to the nearby Yizhuang with a cart.

The villagers disliked the bad luck of the carts that pulled the corpses, and were also afraid that the carts would be contaminated with the toxins from the corpses. After pulling the corpses, they gathered the carts together and burned them up.

When such a thing happened in the village, the villagers were both scared and curious.

The villagers followed Jiang Erya to plant spring sweet potatoes on the open wasteland, while discussing this matter like turning flowers.

When the sweet potatoes are all planted, the novelty of this matter will pass.

The villagers found that their lives were not affected by this incident, and gradually they stopped mentioning it.

A few days later, another big event happened in the village.

It's a great event!
The silly Xing Xing that Er Ya picked up unexpectedly passed the examination of scholar without a sound!

The official messenger who announced the good news entered Xinglin Village with drums and gongs, and the villagers asked belatedly.

"Hey, when did Sha Xing recover from his stupid disease?"

"He's not stupid anymore, he even took the county test? Why don't we know?"

"Has he really passed the exam for a scholar?"

"Let's go, let's run faster, get in front of the officials, and go announce the good news to Er Ya."

With Er Ya's care for Sha Xing, the first person to announce the good news will definitely get a big reward!

The villagers rushed towards Jiang Erya's house scrambling to announce the good news to Jiang Erya.

Jiang Erya knew that the list would be announced today, so she had already prepared a large basket of copper coins at the door of her house.

Anyone who comes to announce the good news can reach into the basket and grab a handful of copper coins.

As long as your hands are big enough, you can grab as many copper coins as you want.

You can take as many as you catch.

The villagers loved Jiang Erya's generosity very much.

He didn't leave after grabbing the copper coins, but surrounded Jiang Erya's house, applauding Xiao Xinghe, loudly and loudly, almost drowning out the voices of the officials announcing the good news.

Li Zheng stretched out his hand to press down, motioning for everyone to calm down and make way for the official who announced the good news.

The villagers moved to the left and right to make way for the middle road.

In this way, the official who announced the good news could walk in front of Jiang Erya and Xiao Xinghe to announce the good news to them.

"Congratulations to Xiao Xiucai for being the top case in Qingjiang County."

The case is No.1 in the county.

Jiang Erniu straightened his waist, and handed two large silver ingots to the official messenger who announced the good news.

The official didn't expect Jiang Erniu to be so generous, and every offer was 20 taels of silver.

It was not in vain that he rushed ahead of his colleagues and ran from Qingjiang County to Xinglin Village to announce the good news.

The official said a lot of good things before leaving happily.

As soon as the officer left, Jiang Erniu lit a long string of red firecrackers hanging in front of the door.

Amidst the "cracking" firecrackers, Xiao Xinghe gently covered Jiang Erya's ears.

Jiang Erya: Don't cover it up, I haven't seen any scenes before, a mere string of firecrackers can't shock me.

Xiao Xinghe: I'm happy to cover it up.There are not many opportunities to show affection in front of people in a fair and honest manner.

Jiang Erya: Alright then, cover it up as you like.

Seeing this scene, the villagers became envious one after another.

The man envied Xiao Xinghe for marrying a rich wife like Jiang Erya, and for being a scholar.

The woman envied Jiang Erya for picking up such a beautiful little idiot as Xiao Xinghe, and the little idiot also passed the examination of a scholar, making her a scholar lady.

When the firecrackers stopped, Jiang Erniu took out a gong and knocked it hard.

"In order to celebrate my son-in-law's passing the exam in Qingjiang County, I decided to set up a three-day banquet in front of our house!"

The villagers immediately cheered.

For the next three days, their family will not have to start a business.

The Jiang family will set up a three-day banquet, and they can bring the whole family, young and old, to come to the Jiang family for free for three full days!

The Jiang family's own banquet must not be short of good wine and food.

Is the exiled immortal who is popular all over the capital drunk?

Do you have to put fine salt and monosodium glutamate in the food?

The rich and powerful in Kyoto queued up to eat food and wine, and they could eat for free for three days.

Compared with this, before the food and wine are served, the people of Xinglin Village seem to be drunk, and the whole person is in high spirits.

After the three-day running water banquet was finished with great excitement, the imperial decree of Emperor Yongshou to confer Jiang Erya as the township lord arrived again.

This is the title Duke Dingguo won for Jiang Erya.

Therefore, even if Xiangjun is only the lowest-ranking title among female family members, Jiang Erya didn't feel disgusted in the slightest.

Eunuch Liu, who came all the way to declare the decree, was well received.

It's enough to get drunk.

The monosodium glutamate that never takes out also got two big bags.

The banknotes are even thicker.

Eunuch Liu could feel the kindness released by Jiang Erya, and he got a lot closer to Jiang Erya during the conversation.

After two or three days of delay, Eunuch Liu went back to the capital.

In the following days, Jiang Erniu concentrated on farming, and Xiao Xinghe concentrated on preparing for the next round of exams.

Jiang Erya was doing business while farming.

She wants to recruit some private soldiers and train them to be like special forces.

With such a team protecting Xiao Xinghe, even if she is not by Xiao Xinghe's side, she doesn't have to worry about Xiao Xinghe's safety anymore.

Of course, she would never say that she wanted to recruit private soldiers, she said she wanted to recruit servants.

Now that she has become the lord of the country, she can put on the ostentation of the lord of the country.

The house can be extended.

There can also be more staff around to serve.

After the "servants" are recruited, she will teach the "servants" some martial arts to protect themselves, which is not a matter of transcendence.

Even if Ying Yi Ying Er beside Xiao Xinghe wanted to complain to Emperor Yongshou, Emperor Yongshou would probably not take it seriously.

Jiang Erya selected a dozen able-bodied villagers from Xinglin Village, and more than 30 from the neighboring villages.

Seeing her arbitrarily selecting candidates, the wealthy gentry in Qingjiang County immediately sent their own people to Xinglin Village to let Jiang Erya choose at will.

In the end, Jiang Erya selected a total of 56 people.

Jiang Erya said to the 56 people: "I am willing to hire you with a super high salary of 100 taels of silver per year, on the premise that you can withstand my tossing..."

These 56 people said that as long as the salary of 100 taels per year is true, they are willing to let Jiang Erya do whatever she wants.

From the signing of the employment contract, these 56 people lived in the newly expanded outer courtyard of the Jiang family.

In the first two days, these 56 people did nothing but eat.

The food is pretty good, every meal has meat.

On the third day, their hard days began...
