After escaping from famine, the evil stepmother was pampered by the villain Zaizai Tuan

Jiang Xiaohua squatted by the ditch and watched carefully.

Wu Gang stood by worriedly, stretching out an arm to block the situation in front of him, fearing that the new owner wouldn't be able to squat properly and would fall in.

Jiang Xiaohua stared at the dark water and said to herself thoughtfully, "It shouldn't be poisonous."

She said, reaching out her hand to touch the black water in the canal.

Wu Ganghui misunderstood and hurriedly stopped him, "Ms. Jiang, although this water is not poisonous, you cannot drink it."

"It's so dirty! People nearby poured whatever dirty water they had into it, and I even saw children peeing!"

The corner of Jiang Xiaohua's mouth twitched, "Master Wu, I don't want to drink."

"I just want to see it."

She smiled and said, "But this water is much better than I imagined."

There are still living things in the water, even lowly insects.

At least it shows that the water quality is not as bad as it seems.

This may be because the ancient chemical purification process was still crude and it was difficult to produce highly toxic wastewater.

And because the largest wastewater discharge site nearby is the rouge workshop.

However, the existing rouge production, from raw materials to process, is all purely natural plant materials.

However, ancient residents produced less domestic waste and limited environmental pollution.

Therefore, the color of the water looks dark, but it can accommodate some lower organisms to survive.

Wu Gang was relieved when he was sure that Jiang Xiaohua didn't want to drink dirty water.

However, he still insisted, "Mrs. Jiang, don't do anything. I'll find something to fish for you."

Wu Gang ran back to the workshop, and not long after he ran back out of breath.

He was holding a bamboo pole with a special shape in his hand.

The bamboo pole is about half a person's height and is flat at one end.

The lower end is fixed with iron wire and connected to a cup made of a whole bamboo root.

Jiang Xiaohua had seen this kind of tool in the workshop just now.

According to Wu Gang, when boiling rouge water, this kind of long spoon can not only stir in the pot, but also take samples at any time to observe the color.

Jiang Xiaohua asked, "Can I use this ladle to scoop out sewage?"

Wu Gang smiled and said, "It's okay, this one has been soaked in for too long and has rotted in several places."

"It couldn't have been put in the rouge pot anymore."

It was just that he felt sorry for the thing, so he kept the ladle, wondering if it could be used for anything else.

Jiang Xiaohua nodded, "Then put it in the ditch and see how it goes."

Wu Gang waved his arms and thrust the ladle down.

Then paddle back and forth in the water.

That's what Jiang Xiaohua wanted. She covered her nose and looked down.

Sure enough, I saw those stirred up red worms, thin thread-like worms, entangled with each other.

Other than that, there seemed to be no other living things in the water.

Jiang Xiaohua raised her hand and waved, and Wu Gang stopped moving.

Although the two of them only met today.

Wu Gang had a tacit understanding of what Jiang Xiaohua wanted him to do.

The two stood up and walked back.

Jiang Xiaohua said, "I will have to think more about the sewage treatment in our rouge workshop when I get back."

Wu Gang was a little surprised.

In the rouge industry, everyone has been directly draining sewage for generations.

This was the first time he heard the word "sewage treatment".

But Wu Gang now admires Jiang Xiaohua wholeheartedly.

He had no doubt that as long as it was said by the new owner, she would have a point.

As a subordinate, he must unswervingly act in accordance with his boss's instructions.

Wu Gang solemnly agreed, "Okay."

"Ms. Jiang, do you have any other instructions?"

Jiang Xiaohua thought for a while, "No more for now. I'll go back today."

"Maybe come back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Wu Gang sent Jiang Xiaohua to the mule cart and stood there watching her leave.

Jiang Xiaohua drove a mule cart back to the city and first went to Shengji Clothing Store.

I saw some of Li Yuanzhi's clothes today.

She thought that she had not picked up the clothes she had ordered before, so she happened to drop by.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, Shengji Buhang becomes even more crowded.

It was difficult for Jiang Xiaohua to find a parking place.

She walked into the lobby and showed the order ticket to the clerk.

The waiter immediately raised his head and looked at Jiang Xiaohua with a warm smile, "Are you Ms. Jiang?"

Jiang Xiaohua didn't know what was going on with this guy, so she answered calmly, "It's me."

The waiter said, "Please wait a moment, dear guest. I'll ask the shopkeeper to come and greet you!" and then hurried to the counter.

Not long after, the shopkeeper personally greeted Jiang Xiaohua with a smile on his face, "There are many people in the store and it is noisy."

"There is no need for your distinguished guest to come in person, just send someone to tell you."

"Our store will deliver it to your door immediately!"

Jiang Xiaohua smiled and said, "I happened to be passing by, so it's not troublesome to pick it up myself."

She recalled what Jiang Yuanheng said before and said clearly, "It must be because Mr. Jiang specially said hello."

"Business in the store is booming, so the shopkeeper doesn't have to bother to entertain me. I just took the clothes, paid the bill and left."

But the shopkeeper was very polite, "No trouble, no trouble."

He smiled, lowered his voice slightly and said, "My young master is not the only one who has said hello."

"My boss also wrote a letter saying that Madam Jiang will be a first-class guest from now on."

"It's natural for me to entertain you personally."

Jiang Xiaohua was startled, "You mean my boss...Mrs. Sheng?"

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, acquiescing.

The guy who received him before came out quickly, followed by two people.

Each man held two or three stacks of packages in his hands.

The packaging of Shengji Clothing is very unique, as the goods are wrapped in light blue gauze.

The top is knotted into a beautiful lily shape.

The three waiters stood in front of Jiang Xiaohua and said with smiles on their faces, "These are the clothes ordered by the guests."

"Guests are also invited to take it apart and inspect it in person."

Jiang Xiaohua took one look at the beautiful packaging and couldn't bear to let the waiter wrap it again.

So he said, "There is no need to inspect the goods, just calculate the balance."

Jiang Xiaohua followed the shopkeeper to the counter to settle accounts.

The shopkeeper fiddled with his abacus and reported a number.

Jiang Xiaohua looked at him doing the math and knew in her heart that this was the original balance plus the discount promised by Jiang Yuanheng, no more and no less.

The shopkeeper was afraid that other customers would see it, so he immediately messed up his calculations and said with a smile:

"Young Master should have already told Madam Jiang, how about we just pay this price?"

Jiang Xiaohua felt that at this point, being polite would be too false.

So he simply paid the money.

The shopkeeper personally sent Jiang Xiaohua outside and watched the guys loading the car.

He pointed to the last bundle and said, "The boss specially gave it to Madam Jiang."

Jiang Xiaohua was slightly stunned. When she was in the store, no one told her that there were gifts.

The shopkeeper said this at this time, didn't he intend to give her a chance to refuse?

Jiang Xiaohua bowed and said, "Mrs. Sheng and I have never met."

"Why did Mrs. Sheng prepare a gift for me?"

"I really don't know, so I'd like to ask the shopkeeper to help me."

The shopkeeper returned the favor and said very politely:

"My boss said that Madam Jiang takes good care of the young master and is careful. Please don't refuse."

"But..." Jiang Xiaohua still had doubts.
