After Gu Yanqing stayed in the countryside for two months, he did a lot of farm work, so it was no problem to build an earthen stove.

"My lady, it's done, take a look."

Gu Yanqing touched the mud on his face, looked at Shen Jin'an with a smile, and looked like a big fluffy dog ​​waiting to be praised.

Seeing his appearance, Shen Jin'an approached the yard, and praised him repeatedly around the earthen stove that looked like a work of art.

"As expected of my husband, this stove is built well and quickly!"

Shen Jin'an praised without hesitation, took out the handkerchief in his sleeve and stood on tiptoe to wipe off the remaining mud on Gu Yanqing's cheek.

The distance between the two suddenly narrowed, and Gu Yanqing could almost feel the faint scent of saponin and medicine on Shen Jinan's body, lingering at the tip of his nose.

His sharp and handsome face immediately turned red, "Ahem, thank you, lady."

"you are welcome."

Shen Jin'an put away the handkerchief with a smile, and patted Gu Yanqing's shoulder, "Husband, go and rest, we will wait for sister and the others to come back for a big meal."

In the evening, Hong Niangzi almost stepped into the yard with Yue Buwei, and the two of them pushed each other like children.

"I came back first! Monster Yue, what are you arguing for?"

"Crazy woman, do you understand etiquette, justice, integrity and shame? Don't you know how to give in when I'm old?"

"Bah, then you went into the ground before me, why didn't you go first?"

The two were chattering, which immediately added a bit of excitement to the yard. Sui Sui Huanhuan had just finished practicing calligraphy when she heard their voices and ran out.

"Aunt Hong Niangzi! Grandpa Yue!"

The regiments jumped into the arms of Hong Niangzi and Yue Buwei, and the two stopped fighting and teased the two children wholeheartedly.

When Shen Jin'an put the pot on the stove, Broken Tooth also rushed back in the twilight.

Everyone gathered around the stove in the yard, wondering what Shen Jinan was doing.

"Let's have hot pot tonight!"

Shen Jin'an threw the hot pot base into the boiling cauldron, and explained to everyone with a smile.

The aroma of various spices and butter immediately filled the yard, and everyone was intoxicated by the aroma.

Gu Yanqing took out six or seven small benches used by students to go to school and placed them around the stove, Sui Sui Huanhuan pulled a few people to sit around the stove, obediently waiting for Shen Jin'an to come over with the ingredients.

Shen Jin'an came out with a lot of ingredients, Gu Yanqing was afraid that she would be tired, so he hurried over to share.

All the ingredients were placed on the small table, and Shen Jin'an sandwiched a thin slice of beef into the hot pot for demonstration, "For hot pot, you put your favorite ingredients in the pot and cook them, and then dip them in your favorite dipping sauce. "

After finishing speaking, she dipped the cooked sliced ​​meat into the red and spicy sauce, and put it in her mouth, and the hot feeling burned into her heart.

Everyone saw that their saliva was drooling, and they put down their chopsticks and started cooking hot pot.

The courtyard was immediately filled with the aroma of hot pot and the laughter of everyone.

After dinner, Broken Tooth approached Shen Jin'an and said that he would have a good talk about today's affairs.

Shen Jinan straightened his expression, immediately moved out two chairs and a small table, poured a jug of good wine, motioned Broken Tooth to sit down and speak slowly.

Broken Tooth looked at her arrogance, slammed his mouth, and sat down without being polite to her.

"Miss Shen, today that ruffian Cai came to make trouble, there must be someone behind the scenes. As for who it is, I don't need to say more, Miss Shen also knows."

Seeing what he said, Shen Jin'an sighed, and poured a glass of mellow medicinal wine for Broken Tooth.

"It's not that I deliberately provoke him. It's really unsatisfactory to make a living under the hands of local tyrants. I also had the idea of ​​renting a shop. I didn't think about it. After inquiring, his monthly rent is 20 taels, and I only set up a stall for a few hundred a day." Money is credited."

Broken Tooth waved his hand, and took another sip from his wine glass.

"I do have an idea."

Shen Jin'an's originally frowning brows slightly relaxed when he heard these words.

"Brother Broken Tooth, please tell me."

Broken Tooth leaned close to Shen Jin'an's ear, and muttered for a while, Shen Jin'an suddenly realized, and then praised Broken Tooth.

"As expected of Brother Broken Tooth, this is God's help!"

Broken Tooth just squinted his eyes and finished his last glass of wine with a smile.

On the second day, after Shen Jin'an greeted Gu Yanqing, he went to the Nanyang government office and asked to visit the magistrate's wife.

There were two young servants standing under the majestic Zhumen of the mansion. Seeing that Shen Jin'an was dressed in coarse cloth and dressed as a peasant woman, they scolded and drove them away.

"You are a mere savage, and you dare to come to the government office to see the magistrate's wife. How dare you! Go, go, go!"

Shen Jin'an was not annoyed at being driven away, but smiled, "I heard that the magistrate's wife suffers from headaches every day and night. I have a recipe here, which can cure her illness for sure. At that time, the two of you will be considered great contributors."

Hearing this, the two young servants looked at each other and became shaken.

Shen Jin'an struck while the iron was hot, stepped forward and secretly took out a piece of silver, and stuffed it into the hand of one of them.

"This is considered as drinking money for the two of you, and please accept it with a smile. Just go in and let me know, and the rest is my own creation."

Now the two young servants were smiling, and one of them entered the small gate to report.

Shen Jin'an's hands hidden under his sleeves were a little nervous, and his palms were sweating.

If it succeeds this time, it can be regarded as keeping the stall.

Not long after, the boy came out beaming, "Girl, our wife said we can let you have a try."

Shen Jin'an was overjoyed when he heard about it, and followed the maid who led the way into the mansion.

The buildings in the government office are even more magnificent, with flowers, birds, trees, rockery and flowing water, all of which highlight the dignity of the magistrate.

Shen Jin'an sneered in his heart, Gu Yanqing was the chief minister of a country back then, and the Gu family had never been so extravagant, the magistrate must have embezzled a lot of money.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, she finally stopped at an elegant courtyard. Shen Jin'an raised her eyes and saw that the plaque on the courtyard read Huiyaju.

There is an elegant word in the name taboo of the magistrate's wife, presumably this is the courtyard of the magistrate's wife.

Sure enough, the maid who led the way went in and raised the curtain, and said softly, "Miss, please, our wife is waiting for you."

Shen Jin'an responded and walked in.

The decoration in the room is elegant and luxurious, and the decorations everywhere are of high value. The crane stove for burning incense alone is worth thousands of taels.

A gorgeously dressed lady was half leaning on the bed of the beauty, and a maid wearing a pink placket was rubbing her head.

"Are you the doctor who promised to cure my headache?"

The magistrate's wife Yang Yaying slowly opened her eyes, and a well-maintained elegant face was displayed in front of Shen Jin'an.

Shen Jin'an took a few steps forward with the medicine box in his arms, and saluted.

"Yes ma'am, I'm sure I can cure madam's headache, but there is one thing I need madam to help."
