After being expelled from the palace, she returned with her cub and amazed the whole city

"Miss, that tree is quite tall. Just give Zhang Qiu the method of grafting fruit trees. I'll see if he can do it." Qiu Ju suggested.

In the capital, she knew what the young lady was going to do in Zhuangzi. The fruit tree was as tall as three adults, so how could Qiu Ju dare to let the young lady climb it herself?

"Grafting? What is grafting?" Zhang Qiu was confused.

"Go find a sharp knife. Then go to the village and find a carpenter. Remember to ask him to bring a saw."

Zhang Qiu didn't ask for details, just turned around and ran away.

Jiang Shuyue said to Zhang Man again: "There is something I haven't discussed with your parents yet. I wonder if you and Erniu are willing to go to the capital to work."

"Yes, of course I am willing. As long as it is a job assigned by the young lady, I am willing to do it."

Zhang Man was overjoyed. Ever since the young lady saw them for the first time, she told the brothers to learn how to calculate accounts and read books. They had never slacked off for a moment.

Jiang Shuyue didn't mince words and said bluntly: "My aunt has a cloth shop that will open in a few days. It needs a trustworthy shopkeeper. I think you are suitable. If you are willing, you can clean it up with Er Niu. I will follow you tomorrow. I'll go to town together."

Finally, when the day came for the young lady's promotion, Zhang Man excitedly bowed his hand and said, "Thank you very much, young lady, for your support. I will never forget your kindness. After I go with Erniu, I will work hard and be loyal to my employer. Please also ask me." Don’t worry, miss.”

Jiang Shuyue nodded with satisfaction, "It is precisely because I believe in the character of you brothers that I recommended you to my aunt. I will tell you the details of your monthly salary when I get to the capital."

"It doesn't matter how small the monthly schedule is. It's good to be able to go to the city to gain more knowledge, learn more things, and take Erniu with me."

"One code equals one code. The shopkeeper's responsibility is not small. You have to take what you deserve. I will return your body deed to you tonight. You will discuss how to sign the contract with your aunt. You can discuss the specific details."

After Jiang Shuyue finished speaking, she looked across the river, "Aunt Cao said that Erniu has gone back to her parents' home. She will leave for the city tomorrow. Go and inform her."

Zhang Man bowed again and said, "I'll pick her up right now."

Seeing Zhang Man running away, Qiu Ju asked, "Miss, will Erniu be willing to follow her into the city?"

"If it were you, would you be willing to go to the city?" Jiang Shuyue asked without answering.

Qiu Ju said with a smile: "Of course I do. The capital is much more lively. I'm worried that Erniu won't be able to leave her parents."

"You are overthinking. Erniu has an elder brother in her family. It's not like she can't go home after going to the capital. She is a smart person and knows that going to the capital is better than staying here and raising rabbits."

The master and servant chatted while strolling along the tree-lined path.

After a cup of tea, Zhang Qiu led a middle-aged man back.

Jiang Shuyue explained to Zhang Qiu the essentials of grafting fruit trees, and then said to him: "I also read this from my travel notes. I don't know whether it will work or not."

"Miss, it will work if it works. It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. Many orange trees here bear extremely sour fruits. It won't be a pity if it fails."

Zhang Man did what he said and quickly found a wooden ladder and asked the carpenter to climb up and saw off all the branches to be grafted.

There was no plastic wrap here, so Jiang Shuyue asked Zhang Man to go to the field to get some mud.

Qiu Ju took out all the cloth strips she brought from the capital.

Looking at those brand-new cloth strips, Zhang Qiu said: What a pity.

"Don't be sorry, these are all useless scraps cut by the embroiderer in the mansion. The lady has brought you some pieces of fine silk."

Qiu Ju paused and joked: "You can ask your second sister-in-law to help you make some clothes."

Zhang Qiu said seriously: "Sister Qiu Ju is right. My second sister-in-law is very handy. Ever since she entered the house, she has made all the clothes and shoes for the family."

The young man's face was full of sunshine, and Qiu Ju couldn't help but joke: "Does Zhang Qiu also want to marry a woman as capable as you?"

The sixteen-year-old boy was still too naive and kept nodding his head, "Yes, Mom said that the first and second sisters-in-law can find each other well. From now on, I have to search like them. If I can't find you, let me be a bachelor."

"puff!"

When Jiang Shuyue heard this, she couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Qiu is lively and cheerful, and has a decent appearance. If he were to become a bachelor, none of the men in this village would be able to find a wife.

Seeing Jiang Shuyue smile, Zhang Qiu chuckled and said, "Miss, don't laugh. I'm not telling lies. These words were all said by my mother."

"I didn't laugh. Your mother was right."

Jiang Shuyue put on a smile and said seriously: "We have hired people to work in the fields. You should find time to read and write more, especially learn to keep accounts. In the future, like your brother, you will go to the capital to be a shopkeeper."

"Thank you for your concern, miss. The younger one learns it every day. The simple accounting method that the miss taught the elder brother is very useful. The second brother also learned it."

Zhang Qiu has a lively personality and is no longer reserved when chatting with Jiang Shuyue and Qiu Ju.

Jiang Shuyue took him to the yard to pick branches with buds.

Stand under the tree and watch Zhang Qiu operate with your own eyes.

A large section of the branch was cut off by the carpenter, and Jiang Shuyue could see it clearly from the ground.

Zhang Qiuren is smart and has good hands. He can graft a tree in less than two quarters of an hour.

There were always more than a dozen fruit trees that needed grafting around. Jiang Shuyue saw the carpenter finishing sawing one tree and moving on to the next.

The carpenter moved quickly, and three trees had already been cleared away.

She quickly shouted: "Master, stop it quickly. This needs to be sawed and grafted on the same day. That's it for today. It won't be too late for Zhang Qiu to make an appointment with you again."

The carpenter quickly stopped and raised his head to ask Zhang Qiu, who was sitting on the tree working hard.

"Third brother, your boss said that this is the end of today's work. Do you want to saw branches tomorrow?"

"Uncle, if you want it, come back tomorrow afternoon. After you finish the work, my father will pay the bill for you."

The carpenter took the tools and left after getting the approval.

Gao Mu and Cangyun left their horses on a piece of grass and headed towards the mountain.

It wasn't until sunset that the two of them returned home with a full load.

Erniu learned that she could follow her husband to the capital like her elder sister-in-law, and she almost trotted back with Zhang Man behind her.

"Thank you, Miss. Second Niu is stupid and doesn't know what to say. Second Niu kowtows to Miss."

Erniu's face turned red with excitement, and she knelt down with a "pop".

As soon as her head hit the ground, Jiang Shuyue quickly pulled her up with quick eyes and hands.

"Second girl, get up quickly. I'm just helping you and your wife with a job. How can I deserve this big gift from you?"

Jiang Shuyue said politely, Zhuangtou is a person who has seen the world and knows that the shopkeeper is no better than an ordinary boy.

"On behalf of the whole family, I would like to thank the young lady for your support." Zhuangtou said with gratitude beyond words.

Aunt Cao was so excited that she burst into tears. She used to worry that life was too tight and she would not be able to marry her daughter-in-law.

Since the arrival of the young lady, her family's life has undergone earth-shaking changes.

I don’t know how many times I have said thank you.

At this time, Zhang Qiu came in with fragrant chicken soup, "Miss, try the old hen stewed with Ganoderma lucidum."

"What! Ganoderma stewed chicken?"
