Dressed as the villain's stepmother

At the county magistrate's office, a man dressed as a beggar ran in in a panic and pounced on Manager Li.

"What are you doing!"

Manager Li was so angry that he shouted without even looking at anyone.

"You're in a hurry, don't you have any eyes?"

"Come on, something big has happened!" The man looked at Manager Li and called on his shoulder, "Why don't you hurry up and call the officer out? If you miss something, I'll pay for it even if you lose your head." Sorry."

Manager Li took a closer look at the person standing in front of him and immediately became honest. He asked someone to follow him into the house to clean up first, and then went to Qin Baoguo's side.

"Master Qian."

Qin Baoguo was worried. When he saw Master Qian walking in hastily towards him, he could only cry out weakly.

"Master, it seems that those two people have started to investigate us. What will happen if we are really investigated?"

Mr. Qian didn't even have time to sit down.

He has always had good hearing. Although he could not understand the conversation between Liao Yunchuan and Yang Fei word for word, he still had [-]% to [-]% understanding.

This matter is really a big deal.

It actually alarmed everyone in the capital!

"What's the matter?"

Qin Baoguo still didn't know what he was panicking about. He was just an investigator sent by the county to do the investigation. He had done it many times before, and it was all just a matter of confusion.

Although it is a thorn in the side this time, it will definitely become submissive in a short time.

"Those two people are from the capital!" Master Qian whispered into Qin Baoguo's ear as if he had discovered some earth-shattering secret.

Qin Baoguo was stunned immediately. He didn't expect that the news he had received before was wrong!

He had sent his own people to investigate earlier, and everyone was sure that it was an inspection from the county. Now when he asked, it turned out to be from the capital.

This, how can I explain this?

"We can't take the land to the east now. If anything happens, your head won't be saved, and neither will mine."

Qin Baoguo didn't care about Sanqi 21, and all the flesh in his body began to tremble.

Mr. Qian nodded, unable to even let out a fart.

He was able to become one of the richest families in the town by relying on a hundred medicine halls. This was all because he had Qin Baoguo to support him. Otherwise, it would have been so smooth along the way.

Now they are grasshoppers on a rope, and some things need to be considered to avoid harming the interests of both parties.

"Yes, there are still some of our previous accounts. Hurry up and call someone over to balance them a little. If the difference is not too big, it will be fine. If the difference is thousands or tens of thousands of taels, the consequences..."

Qin Baoguo continued speaking, then turned around and ordered Manager Li to find a bookkeeper and come back immediately.

The two people discussed it in the room all afternoon and finally covered up the matter on the surface.

Little did they know that all the words they discussed were recorded by Yang Fei and given to Liao Yunchuan.

Meanwhile, in the village.

Jiang Lianzhu looked at Manager Li who suddenly arrived in her yard, a bit of confusion flashed in her eyes.

He looked so arrogant before, but why did he become so groveling soon after.

"Miss Jiang, do you still want the piece of land on the east side of your village?" Manager Li said in a flattering manner and put the land deed in his hand on the table.

"Didn't you say you already gave it to Mr. Qian? Why are you thinking of giving it to me now?"

Jiang Lianzhu asked pretending to be surprised.

Manager Li wiped the sweat from his head and couldn't fart for a long time.

How else could he answer this? Because he knew that people in the capital were investigating, he quickly moved this piece of land, otherwise he would only get into trouble!

"That's because our official was blinded by a little money before. Now he has woken up and naturally wants to hand over this land to the girl."

Jiang Lianzhu smiled and said nothing, and didn't answer even half a word.

She sat in the yard and began to deal with the herbs on the table. As for the land deed, she didn't even look at it.

"Is there anything else that the girl is dissatisfied with? The official has already spoken. As long as it comes from the girl, that's fine!"

"it is good!"

As soon as Jiang Lianzhu stopped handling the herbs, she was waiting for that sentence, but she didn't expect that Manager Li couldn't keep calm at all. He was frightened by her appearance and said it.

"I still need a few farmers here. When I went to the government last time, I saw a few servants who were quite strong. Or were they all given to me?"

Jiang Lianzhu smiled and said what she said, but she was not lenient at all.

She now understands that with Liao Yunchuan's huge background behind her, she can pretend to be powerful.

"Okay, okay, I'll ask them to pack up and come to the village later!"

Manager Li naturally agreed.

It's just a few servants. If this matter can be solved smoothly, it won't be a loss even if hundreds of servants are sent over!

"Okay, let's do this for now."

Jiang Lianzhu just made things difficult for him, then pressed her finger prints on the land deed and kicked him out without any courtesy.

After she packed up the herbs in her hand, she immediately went to find Aunt Liu with the land deed.

Aunt Liu was literate. She read all the words written on it and almost couldn't close her mouth.

"Jiang Mei'er, the government not only gave us a piece of land, but we also have the right to own the river to the east!"

"Besides watering, what else does this river have to do?"

Jiang Lianzhu didn't understand why she was so excited, and no one in the village mentioned anything special about the river.

"That river has always had the most fish. You can catch a lot of them casually. But before, it was always controlled by Li Zheng. No one dared to fish in that river. Now there is a chance!"

Aunt Liu said very excitedly.

Meat is expensive in the market, and the price of fish is double that of meat. They used to be able to eat just one fish all year round, but that's different now!

"Okay, then we can farm the land and catch the fish at the same time. We can sell it in the market and get double income."

Jiang Lianzhu nodded and left the land deed in her hand to the Liu family.

She usually doesn't have much time to care about the land. The Liu family has more to do. If Li Zheng can make things difficult, it will be easy to explain with the land deed.

"In addition, there will be a few servants who will come over to help with the farming. Don't feel embarrassed or anything. Anyway, it was sent from the government, and it will be in vain if the people don't use it."
