At this time in the room, Jiang Tuge had already let go of Xiao Hei, who had been ravaged by her for a long time.

She opened the door and walked towards the two children with a smile on her face, "My dear, mother is here. Don't you two miss me so much?"

Si Jin quickly ran over and took Jiang Tuge's hand, "Well, I miss my mother."

Si Shuo on the side couldn't help rolling his eyes. Jiang Tuge's words just now gave him goosebumps all over his body. Jiang Tuge rarely said this to the two of them.

The only person she often talks to is their father, Simubai. But every time she spoke like this, there was always some other purpose behind it.

"Mom, if you have anything to do, just tell me!"

"Huh?" Jiang Tuge raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Si Shuo with a half-smile.

Si Shuo shrugged, "Mom, as long as you speak in this tone, something must be wrong. Just say it, we can bear it."

.........

Jiang Tuge just felt helpless, "Okay, I was fine originally. But since you said so, I really have something."

"However, this is not a big deal. I will go to the steward grandpa in a while. You two don't go anywhere at home."

"By the way, you must pay attention to those two scholars. If they want to come in, they cannot agree."

Si Shuo nodded thoughtfully and said after a moment, "Mother, you may have forgotten that we are just children!"

"The two of them are adults. Even if we want to stop them, we probably won't have much effect."

Listening to Si Shuo's words, Jiang Tuge felt that there was nothing wrong, "In that case, I will go find your Aunt Yan. With her here, I can feel at ease."

Jiang Tuge chose Yan Shu because she was already familiar with the two children on the one hand, and because of her fierce temper on the other.

If Liu Feng really comes again, she can argue with Liu Feng and the scholar alone. Jiang Tuge called Yan Shu, then put a few eggs in a bamboo basket and went to Manager Li's house.

Outside the steward's house, Jiang Tuge knocked on the door and shouted with a smile, "Steward Li, I am Tuge."

Hearing this, the lady in charge opened the door with a smile, "Come in quickly, I haven't seen you for a while."

Jiang Tuge smiled and put the eggs in the bamboo basket on the table, "Manager Li, these eggs are for you and my aunt."

Manager Li was stunned for a moment when he looked at the six eggs on the table. Eggs were considered a rarity in the countryside these days.

Jiang Tuge specially bought a hen in Shangcun so that he could eat hot eggs.

"Ms. Jiang, take this egg back quickly." Manager Li stood up and was about to return the egg. "I haven't done anything to help you. I can take your things anywhere."

Hearing this, Jiang Tuge smiled and said, "This egg is a piece of my heart, you must accept it. Moreover, this is not unreasonable."

"If you hadn't spoken for me this morning, I'm afraid Liu Feng would still be pestering me at home!"

When Liu Feng was mentioned, Manager Li's expression changed. He sighed slightly, "I don't know what happened to Liu Feng when he came back this time, but he just couldn't get along with you."

"Oh? Are you having trouble with me?" Jiang Tuge pretended not to know. Manager Li was stunned for a moment and didn't want to continue talking, "It's nothing, this is all a misunderstanding in the end. I won't say it anymore, I won't say it anymore."

Seeing that Manager Li was deliberately defending Liu Feng, Jiang Tuge knew in his heart that he still expected Liu Feng to be a scholar or a scholar.

"Manager Li, is this misunderstanding real?" Jiang Tuge asked with a smile.

"Impossible!" Manager Li tightened his eyes, "Mrs. Jiang, this Liu Feng is the only cultural background of our Yunzhuang. If he can pass the examination and be a scholar, then our Yunzhuang will have a great future."

"If he can succeed, he will definitely take care of our Yunzhuang. And you are the most capable. This Yunzhuang cannot survive without you two."

"Tell me, how could such outstanding people as you two have conflicts? So, this must be a misunderstanding."

Jiang Tuge chuckled, and it was obvious what Manager Li was thinking. He wanted to make big things into small things, make small things into nothing, and cover up this matter.

At the moment, Liu Feng has not violated his interests. Unless Liu Feng falls out with him one day, he will notice the faults in this person, just like he did to Lin Yuwei.

Jiang Tuge didn't intend to argue with Manager Li. There was no point in saying this now. "Perhaps it's really the same as what you said, Manager Li. Who can say clearly?"

Seeing this, Manager Li wanted to end the topic, "Ms. Jiang, if you really came to me specifically to talk about Liu Feng, then you..."

Jiang Tuge chuckled, "Then why are you bothering you just because of him? I'm here today because of business."

"Business?" Manager Li became nervous upon hearing this, "What do you want to say?"

"The wheat has been watered these days, and it's probably time to harvest the wheat!" Jiang Tuge didn't beat around the bush, but went straight to the point.

Manager Li nodded, "Indeed, it only lasted the past two days."

"In this case, you will tell the people in the village to harvest the wheat in two days." Jiang Tuge nodded with a serious expression.

"Why? Could it be that this weather..." Manager Li was puzzled. How could we say that we should harvest wheat when we ask for it?

Jiang Tuge pursed his lips, of course it was because of the taxes that would be paid in the near future.

"Manager Li, this year's harvest will definitely not be as good as in previous years. Then the tax collectors must come in advance, and we should be prepared to be the first in the county to pay taxes. By that time, Magistrate Hu will definitely Overjoyed."

Hearing this, Manager Li felt that Jiang Tuge's words made some sense.

When Magistrate Hu left last time, he specifically praised him for his good management of Yunzhuang. This time, if the taxes can be paid in advance, then my contribution to Magistrate Hu will be a little more.

"Ms. Jiang, I have to thank you again this time. Without your reminder this time, I really forgot about it."

Jiang Tuge smiled and replied, "This matter is nothing, and I am happy to be able to help you. Manager Li, this wheat harvest should be the top priority for farmers like us!"

Manager Li nodded, "Of course, those of us who are farming with our faces turned to the loess and our backs to the sky are waiting for the autumn harvest."

"In that case, I have an idea here!" Jiang Tuge said and paused.

Manager Li saw that she was hesitant to speak and said hurriedly, "Ms. Jiang, if you have any ideas, just tell me. We in Yunzhuang all know what you are thinking."

Jiang Tuge smiled sheepishly and said, "Manager Li, this idea of ​​mine is not mature either. You have to listen to it first, and if it works, then do it." (End of Chapter)
