Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

   Chapter 547 547. Another reward (25)

  As the two fought, the prisoners were caught one by one, and finally they were the only ones left.

   Seeing this, the middle-aged man tried his best to fend off Ge Lihua's sword and flew towards the wall.

  Ge Lihua didn't chase after him, he made a decisive decision, and threw the sword in his hand to the middle-aged man's back. The sword sank into the opponent's back, and the middle-aged man fell to the ground in an instant, and fell to the ground.

  Chu Xujin looked at Ge Lihua's cool and beautiful profile, and it was undeniable that he was fascinated by this heroic scene again.

  The crowd successfully captured everyone.

  These people are the ones who made counterfeit banknotes. They found a lot of tools for printing counterfeit banknotes in their houses, as well as counterfeit banknotes that hadn’t been spent.

   After being brought back to the Yamen, the interrogation began immediately, and everyone confessed.

  The county magistrate stamped the official seal of the case, and was very satisfied with Chu Xujin, "Xujin, you have made great contributions again, and the county will definitely reward you well."

  Chu Xujin clasped his fists, "Master County Magistrate, the reason why the prisoner was caught so smoothly is all thanks to my fifth sister's advice, please give the reward to my fifth sister, Mr. County Magistrate."

The yamen servants in other counties who assisted Chu Xujin in handling the case also said the same thing. The county magistrate was surprised, but he also felt that it was reasonable, "This county asked the master to give your fifth sister a reward of fifty taels. Everyone has worked hard. Ben All the counties will be rewarded for their merits."

   "Thank you, my lord."

  The county magistrate patted his stomach, and happily went back to the inner courtyard.

  …

  Chu's papermaking workshop.

   "Fifth Sister." Chu Xujin smiled and raised her lips, revealing a few white teeth, very handsome.

  Chu Qingzhi turned around, "Why is third brother here?"

  Chu Xujin's eyes were full of smiles, and he said happily, "The case has been solved, and I came here to tell you the good news."

   "The case was solved so quickly?" Chu Qingzhi took Chu Xujin to sit at the stone table in the garden, and Chu Feng brought tea, "Brother Xujin."

  Chu Feng is the grandson of the village chief. He is seventeen years old. He is a good-looking person who can read and write. Chu Qingzhi asked him to be the steward of the paper workshop temporarily. If he does well, he will officially become the steward.

  Chu Xujin patted the stool next to him, "Sit together?"

  Chu Feng tactfully refused, "There are still many things to do in the workshop, and we will wait until we return to the village."

  Chu Xujin nodded, "Okay, then go and do your work."

  After Chu Feng walked away, Chu Xujin excitedly told Chu Qingzhi about the case, "Fifth Sister, can you tell me how you came to start with raw materials, ink, and blacksmiths?"

   "It's actually very simple..." Chu Qingzhi explained her thoughts to Chu Xujin in detail, and finally made a summary.

  Chu Xujin recorded what Chu Qingzhi said on the paper, "Fifth sister, I feel that I have grown a lot."

   "You've only been in this business for a while, so don't be too harsh on yourself." Chu Qingzhi took a sip from the teacup, and then changed the subject, "Third Brother, are you going to the capital with us tomorrow, or with Big Brother and the others?"

  Everyone discussed it, and the family members went to Beijing in two groups. The first group was the four elders, Chu Qingyue and Chu Qingzhi, the second group was Chu Xuhua and Shen Ruyue, and the rest were random.

   "I'm with you, and I've already taken a leave of absence." The second sister's marriage is a major event, and he has to help.

   "Is Li Hua going?"

   "She came with us and also took leave." It was precisely because of this that they were anxious to solve the case and returned home very late these days.

  Calling the conversation, Chu Qingzhi asked concerned, "Third brother, how are you and Li Hua going?"

  Chu Xujin scratched his head, feeling embarrassed, "Well... this matter can't be rushed, I, I..."

  Chu Qingzhi looked at Chu Xujin's reaction, and asked tentatively, "You haven't pierced that layer of window paper yet?"

  Chu Xujin took a deep breath and said, "I'm afraid that Li Hua will be abrupt."

  Chu Qingzhi smiled, understanding the conservativeness of men and women in ancient times, "Do you need me to help you?"

   "Help...how?"

   "Ask directly, if Li Hua has you in his heart, you should confess quickly and marry Li Hua home."

  Chu Xujin blushed, and finally couldn't restrain the eagerness to move in her heart, and whispered, "Then please ask Fifth Sister, please be more tactful when asking..."

   "I know how to ask, wait for my good news."

   "Yes." Chu Xujin's face was on fire, and he left in a hurry.

  Chu Qingzhi pursed her lips and smiled, who is not a modern man who has experienced many battles, a young man like Chu Xujin who is shy when talking about getting married, is really innocent and cute.

  …

  Chu Family Village.

  In the storage room, Chu Qingning and Chu Qingyan took a list together to help count Chu Qingyue's dowry.

  The dowry was prepared early in the morning, and there was a mistake, so I checked it again.

  Chu Qingning walked in front of Li Qingyu, "Mother, no problem, you can lock it now."

  Chu Qingyan also came over, "I checked it three times, and nothing is wrong."

  Li Qingyu nodded, took the lock, locked the boxes one by one, and removed the locks on the day of marriage, just in case.

  Everyone left the storage room, Li Qingyu also locked the door of the storage room.

  At this time, Ning Yuting's voice came out, "Grandpa, grandma, uncle Chu, aunt..."

  When Li Qingyu heard Ning Yuting's voice, he immediately laughed. This son-in-law is really good, and he came to pick him up when he said he would pick him up, and his evaluation of Ning Yuting was much higher in his heart.

  With a happy mood, she hurried to the main room and greeted, "Yu Ting, it's been a long journey, please sit down and rest for a while."

   "It's not in the way." Ning Yuting was a bit dusty, but his gentle demeanor was still outstanding, "Auntie, I'll pick you up to the capital."

  Li Qingyu nodded, and said briskly, "We are all ready, we can set off early tomorrow morning."

  Ning Yuting sat on a chair and talked to the elders in the family. After a while, everyone came back and came to the main room together to discuss tomorrow's travel issues.

  After discussing for half an hour, everything was finalized.

  Chu Qingyue got married on September 19th, and Chu Xuhua and Shen Ruyue went to Beijing on September 18th. After they went to Beijing, the family was temporarily handed over to Li Zhangjie and Hong Yujun, and everyone else went to Beijing tomorrow.

  …

  Chu Qingzhi came to the old house and taught Aunt Zhang how to make soybean paste.

  Aunt Zhang and the others are all proficient in cooking, and they have seen that Chu Qingzhi has fried it many times. After mastering the key points, the taste of the stir-fry is almost exactly the same as that of Chu Qingzhi.

  Put the stir-fried soybean paste into a small porcelain jar, a porcelain jar is full of ten catties, and seal it with two layers of oil paper and red cloth.

  There are three characters of soybean paste on the surface of the porcelain jar, and there is a pattern of soybean paste the size of a palm. It was custom-made by Chu Qingzhi from Chu Qingshuang, and it is a bit expensive.

  Considering the issue of value, porcelain cylinders can be recycled or not, depending on the wishes of the other party, but if you choose not to recycle, you need to pay more.

  The old house is filled with the smell of soybean paste. People passing by will take a deep breath and say in their hearts...it smells so good.

  The people in the village have digested a lot of soybean paste, and some villagers eat it directly with rice, and they like it very much.
