Cure the cold-faced general by solving crimes

Chapter 40 Master Pei is here to find you

Jiang Xihe walked into Aunt Zhao's house carrying the duck goods. Liu Tang stuck his head out of the window and smiled teasingly, "Who is here? Miss Jiang, it's not dark yet, but this Mr. Xie family has been looking for you several times."

Jiang Xihe curled his lips helplessly, "You still don't know what I'm thinking? Eat and stop talking."

Aunt Zhao was packing things in the kitchen and raised her head when she heard the conversation between the two people, "Xiaohe, don't listen to Liu Tang, she's not up to date day by day."

Jiang Xihe walked towards the kitchen to see what he could do for Aunt Zhao for dinner. When he saw this, his heart dropped.

Aunt Zhao's stove was more severely damaged than hers. Half of it had collapsed. It was difficult to make a fire, let alone cooking. Looking at Aunt Zhao and Liu Tang who were busy, Jiang Xihe said, "Aunt Zhao, Xie Qiyuan sent some duck products. I'll try it again." Let’s go buy something, and let’s deal with it tonight.”

Aunt Zhao then straightened up and said with a look on her face, "What's the use of you, Liu Tang, you go shopping."

Jiang Xihe quickly grabbed her and said, "Aunt Zhao and I are welcome. You and Liu Tang quickly pack up the house. I can't help you. I'll go buy it."

Aunt Zhao reached into her pocket to get a few coins, but Jiang Xihe had already stepped out of the courtyard. "Come on, Aunt Zhao, don't be polite to me." Jiang Xihe waved her hand and disappeared.

Walking out of Yongfu Lane, there were many pedestrians on the street. The water had receded at this moment, and many people were cleaning up the courtyard gates. It seemed that the damage was not that serious, but there were still areas that needed to be repaired.

Jiang Xihe bought six steamed buns, a few side dishes, and after thinking about it, he also bought a bag of millet. He didn't know how long he could stay at Liu Tang's house, so this was a little thought for Aunt Zhao.

Carrying the things and walking back, Jiang Xihe saw Han Fang hurriedly walking out of Deji Hall.

"Brother Han."

Han Fang was happy to see Jiang Xihe, "Miss Jiang!" The general was back, and Jiang Xihe had contributed a lot. However, during the time when the general came back, they had not had time to speak. Seeing Jiang Xihe's expression as before, Han Fang was relieved and said, "Your family How about it?"

"Okay, why did Brother Han come to Deji Hall?" Jiang Xihe saw the wrapped medicinal materials in his hand, and his first reaction was that Pei Zhizhao was injured, so he asked with concern.

Han Fang hesitated for a moment, looked around and then whispered, "General Pei hasn't had much rest for three days. I made a home remedy. I'll give it to the general later. I want him to drink it, so he has to sleep."

Pei Zhizhao was in Qingfeng Village last night, and the two of them had a tacit understanding and didn't speak.

"The general has been having trouble sleeping. I haven't told anyone about this. The general himself doesn't really care, but I seem anxious. The general has been busy since he came back today, and it seems he won't be able to rest tonight."

Jiang Xihe's eyes often turned black when he thought of Pei Zhizhao. It turned out to be this reason.

After a long while, Han Fang said gratefully, "The general didn't say anything when he came back, but I know it was thanks to Miss Jiang this time, so I won't say any more thanks. I'll have another chance in the future."

Jiang Xihe remembered the experience of returning with Pei Zhizhao, and said with the heat on his face, "Mr. Pei has taken good care of me these days, and the same goes for Brother Han. You can't be polite between us, by the way." Jiang Xihe pointed at Han Fang. The medicinal materials in hand, "My father also took a lot of soothing medicine before his death, but the effect was not good, but I have learned some soothing food therapy, and I will give it to Mr. Pei to try."

"That's good. Although the general didn't say anything about what Miss Jiang made, I know he likes it very much."

Jiang Xihe lowered his head. It was really embarrassing to say these compliments in person.

At the stall where the two people were talking, a group of government officials beat gongs and shouted as they headed toward the west of the city, "The county magistrate has something to say. Starting tomorrow, the county government will help people repair their houses. Please prepare every household..." ····”

The gong kept beating, making Jiang Xihe's heart beat loudly. "Oh my God, it's so good." Jiang Xihe said happily to Han Fang.

Han Fang also smiled, "When I went out, the general was arranging this matter. I didn't expect it to be announced so soon. Miss Jiang, I don't know what other arrangements the general has, so I'll leave first." Jiang Xihe bid farewell to Han Fang. Along the way, I saw people cheering and stopping the government officials who made the announcement to ask questions. Everyone had a smile on their face.

Pei Zhizhao puts the people first and can think of helping everyone repair their houses. Jiang Xihe's heart is filled with warmth. The disaster and melancholy caused by the heavy rain are gradually resolved at this moment.

Jiang Xihe believes that under the leadership of Pei Zhizhao, not only the waterlogging in the west of the city will be solved, but Pingan County will also get better and better.

When they first met, Jiang Xihe felt that Pei Zhizhao was cold, but after getting along with him, he felt that he was okay. Then something happened to his brother, and the person who finally gave Jiang Xihe courage was actually Pei Zhizhao. Although the words he said were hurtful, they were real. She came out of grief.

He took care of her and cared about her. Although he tricked her into going to Qingfeng Village and didn't explain too much, Jiang Xihe still thought he was very good.

Returning to Aunt Zhao's house, Liu Tang had already packed up the bedroom. Aunt Zhao's house had two rooms, and Liu Tang lived in the north room. No one could live in it tonight, so the three of them planned to squeeze in Aunt Zhao's room.

Jiang Xihe took out the things she bought, and Aunt Zhao finished them quickly. She was worried about the kitchen, so she got up and went to clean up. Jiang Xihe wanted to help, but Liu Tang stopped her, "Let my mother go, she has fixed places for everything in the kitchen." If someone else interferes with the position, my mother will be in chaos."

Jiang Xihe knew that feeling, so he was no longer polite, and he and Liu Tang each took a duck paw and started chewing it without finishing it.

Liu Tang gnawed a few times and asked gossipingly, "Tell me the truth, where did you go before noon?"

Jiang Xihe choked, but didn't want to lie to Liu Tang, so he said vaguely, "Let's do something with Mr. Pei."

Liu Tang was so surprised that he stopped chewing the duck's paw. He leaned close to Jiang Xihe's ear and asked, "What's going on with you two? There's something wrong with you, Jiang Xihe."

Because she found Jiang Xihe blushing.

"It's okay." The more Jiang Xihe resisted, the more Liu Tang laughed, "It's impossible. If you don't tell me the truth, then I won't tell you anything in the future."

"It's spicy." Jiang Xihe fanned her cheeks with her hands and said evasively, "What can happen to Mr. Pei and me?" But she remembered the feeling of Pei Zhizhao carrying her on his back, and the two of them riding a horse together, and her face became more and more expressionless. hot.

Liu Tang smiled more and more and got closer to Jiang Xihe. Finally, he fell on Jiang Xihe's neck and said close to her ear, "Jiang Xihe, are you moved?"

"Nonsense~"

What nonsense, Liu Tang is simply talking nonsense.

Although it was nonsense, Jiang Xihe was summarizing these feelings in his heart. How could he be moved?

She only admired and admired Pei Zhizhao, "Master Pei loves the people like a son and helps us repair our houses. I respect him."

Liu Tang just smiled, Jiang Xihe didn't look at her.

Suddenly there were footsteps in the yard, and then a familiar voice sounded, "Aunt Zhao, is Miss Jiang here?"

Jiang Xihe's heart flickered, and his face became hot.

Liu Tang was stunned for a moment in shock, then narrowed his eyes with a smile, and whispered to Jiang Xihe, "Jiang Xihe, Mr. Pei, whom you respect, is here to see you."
