The two have personalities like water, accepting all.
One is intense like fire, blazing fiercely.
The two ladies looked at the rouge and were quite satisfied, immediately thanking Jin Yanzi: "Thank you, Sister Jin."
Chen Jie said, "Hey, I bought these, why are you thanking her?"
Su Yunjin frowned and said, "Husband..."
Huang Wanâer directly said, "Husband, if Sister Jin hadnât made them, what would you have bought? We thank Sister Jin for reminding us not to forget the well-digger when drinking water."
Hearing this, Jin Yanzi said, "Haha, I like to hear the words from you two sisters. Actually, I have even better ones in Jinyan Pavilion, and Iâll send them to you two sisters another day."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunjin said, "Thank you, Sister Jin."
Huang Wanâer also laughed and said, "Sister Jin, you are really nice."
Jin Yanzi was lost in the flattery and praises from the two ladies, becoming dazzled by the title Sister Jin.
While everyone was having breakfast, Su Yunjin called Chen Jie to the side and asked, "Husband, whatâs going on?"
Chen Jie said, "Itâs nothing. How should I put this, she needs my help."
"Oh, as long as thereâs no danger. Earlier, Sister Huang and I were so scared, we thought Sister Jin was here to kill you, and we praised her a lot. Itâs good that everythingâs fine now."
Su Yunjin said to Chen Jie, and Chen Jie heard this and said, "Oh, you did it on purpose?"
Su Yunjin said, "Of course, who knows what her intentions were when she came. But itâs fine now, as long as sheâs not here to kill my husband, itâs all good."
Su Yunjin breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Su Yunjin breathe a sigh of relief, Chen Jie also smiled and said, "I didnât expect you sisters to cooperate this well, I didnât notice any flaws."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunjin gave a bitter smile and said, "Itâs all for you, isnât it?"
Meanwhile, breakfast was finished, and Chen Jie tidied up, preparing to leave.
Jin Yanzi looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Where are you going?"
Chen Jie said, "To the government, donât follow me. Youâre still a wanted criminal."
Upon hearing this, Jin Yanzi said, "Then where should I go?"
Chen Jie said, "You can stay here if you like, or if not, you can help me with something."
Jin Yanzi asked, "What is it?"
Chen Jie said, "Check the stock in the cityâs grain warehouses, the salt, iron, tea, and horse reserves."
Jin Yanzi said, "How do I check that?"
Chen Jie said, "Thereâs a big warehouse for grain, and there are warehouses for salt and iron, and storage places for tea and horses. Just check if thereâs still stock inside."
Jin Yanzi said, "Alright, Iâll take my leave then."
After saying this, Jin Yanzi leapt onto the rooftop and disappeared among the roofs.
Watching Jin Yanzi leave, Huang Wanâer looked at Chen Jie and said, "Husband, youâre interested in someone of average looks like her?"
Chen Jie looked at Huang Wanâer and said, "You think Iâm a stud horse? Should I mate with every female?"
Hearing this, Huang Wanâer burst into laughter and said, "Husband, why do you talk about yourself like that, itâs quite vivid."
Chen Jie looked at Huang Wanâerâs nonsensical words, feeling helpless. This woman is becoming more and more unrestrained, unlike his well-mannered little wife.
"Bean, stop, Bean..."
While Chen Jie was talking with the two ladies, Ruirui suddenly ran over with a dog in front of her, chasing it.
This dogâs paws were covered in ink.
At this moment, Ruiruiâs face was full of ink as she shouted while chasing the dog, "Stop."
Chen Jie saw this and said, "Ruirui, what are you doing?"
Ruirui said, "Brother-in-law, youâre back. Ah Yong and I are painting plum blossoms."
Chen Jie said, "Youâre painting plum blossoms, why chase the dog?"
Ruirui said, "The branches of the plum blossom are easy to paint, but dotting the plums is too hard. Beanâs footprints look like plum blossoms, so I caught it and let it stamp on the white paper to make plum blossom prints."
"Hmm, dog, plum blossom."
Chen Jie frowned slightly, as if thinking of something, touched Ruiruiâs head, and said, "Haha, youâre really smart!"
"Go and play."
After encouraging Ruirui, Chen Jie turned and left, leaving the courtyard gate.
Soon, Chen Jie appeared at the Darugachi Mansion.
He saw the Commandery Princess who hadnât slept all night.
The Commandery Princess was a bit tired at this time, but her eyes were still sharp and said, "Jiu Si, youâre back. Is your family settled?"
Chen Jie said, "Yes, they are settled."
"By the way, there was a big fire on South Street last night, did you know the reason?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Reporting to Commandery Princess, someone wanted to kill me, but I was saved."
"Kill you, who is so bold?"
Chen Jie said, "Fishing Guild."
Zhao Ya said, "Hmm, I understand, leave this matter to me, Iâll handle it. By the way, someone saved you, who was it?"
Chen Jie said, "Jin Yanzi."
"Jin Yanzi?"
Zhao Ya frowned, looking at Chen Jie, and said, "Where is she now?"
Chen Jie said, "Commandery Princess, I was about to report to you, I think there might be deception in Wulu Taiâs matter."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya said, "What do you mean?"
Chen Jie pondered briefly, then reported the whole story, along with his own speculations, to Zhao Ya.
Zhao Ya, after listening, frowned tightly and said, "You mean, thereâs more to this story?"
Chen Jie said, "Yes, by the way, Commandery Princess, I want to ask, where did the grain confiscated yesterday go?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya was stunned and then said, "Grain, I need to ask my third brother, Jiu Si, come with me."
Chen Jie accompanied Zhao Ya to the main hall of the Darugachi Mansion.
Upon arriving here, they saw Wang Baobao already gathering all the officials of Huangzhou Prefecture and was there, furious.
"What does the court keep you for? You bunch of useless people, a few days ago I asked you to bring out some grain, you kept making excuses, saying there was no grain, and now?"
