Surprise! The little koi from the farm, her husband who died long ago is alive!

Chapter 151 The New County Magistrate Comes to the Shop

Jiang Shuyue patted her arm and said with a smile, "Go back quickly. Keep this in mind."

She knew that Niu Aifang was a person who cared about her reputation, so there were some things that didn't need to be said in person, she understood it in her heart.

When Niu Aifang looked at her again, her eyes were filled with gratitude. "I understand. I will definitely choose the right one for you. If you make a mistake, just come to me."

After Niu Aifang left, Old Lady Xiao pursed her lips and was naturally happy, "Aifang is different from her mother. She is diligent, sensible, and kind-hearted."

Jiang Shuyue thought that if it weren't for the Jiang Yinqiao incident, Niu Aifang would have been the daughter-in-law that Old Lady Xiao had chosen.

"Actually, to be honest, she always came to our house to help out before. Your father and I guessed what she meant. We really liked her at that time."

Old Madam Xiao looked at Jiang Shuyue and said, "I know you don't mind, and I don't have any other intentions."

Jiang Shuyue really didn't mind. It was normal for a girl from one family to be sought after by hundreds of families, and for unmarried men and women.

However, what Old Lady Xiao said next was something she had not expected, "What a pity, the two children are not destined to be together, Xiao Lin doesn't mean that."

Jiang Shuyue looked at her in surprise.

"Really? At the time, your father and I were thinking, our family is well-off, and there is a girl who is willing to marry into our family and is not bad either. Isn't this a good thing? But Xiao Lin disagreed no matter what, saying that he already has someone in his heart."

"Is there someone? Who is it?" Jiang Shuyue asked curiously. At that time, Xiao Lin had not left the village, so he should not have met Shen Zhihuan yet, right?

"I don't know. Your father and I asked him, but he didn't tell me. But he was lucky enough to marry you. I guess he lied to us before. He just didn't like Niu Aifang."

Old Madam Xiao is also a simple-minded person. If Jiang Shuyue and Xiao Lin were a normal couple, she would definitely feel resentful if she were a little more narrow-minded.

However, Jiang Shuyue knew that she had no ill intentions and just wanted to express that Niu Aifang was a good person and that Xiao Lin had no other intentions towards her, so she could rest assured.

Jiang Shuyue was just curious. Did Xiao Lin just tell the old couple he had someone in his heart, or was it true?

She went through all the girls of similar age in the village in her mind, but couldn't figure out which girl it was.

But then I thought, whoever you love is fine, what does it have to do with me?

Although it was summer and there were vegetables in the vegetable fields, the villagers would send some vegetables from their homes to thank Jiang Shuyue, but vegetables alone were not enough. The workers would have no energy without meat.

Jiang Shuyue didn't want to treat the workers harshly. She thought she could make a lot of money, and the money she saved by withholding the workers' food rations was not much.

"Dad, you still have to go to the villa to take care of things today. Don't do anything else. Just find a cool place to rest and keep an eye on things."

Jiang Shuyue often saw Old Man Xiao working with them. She asked Foreman Hu about this, and Foreman Hu also felt aggrieved, "Madam, we didn't ask him to do that. He was the old man of the boss family. How dare we do that? It was your old man who couldn't sit still and insisted on helping, saying that more people would make it faster."

Foreman Hu smiled and said, "He has good intentions, but he doesn't think about it. For such a large project, adding one more person like him won't speed up the process much."

Jiang Shuyue was mainly worried that Old Man Xiao would get tired, as the work on the construction site was not easy.

Old Man Xiao chuckled. He was not angry at all that his daughter-in-law controlled him as a father-in-law. "I won't do anything, but just lend a hand. It won't be tiring."

"That won't work either. If Foreman Hu complains to me later, I won't buy you any wine." Jiang Shuyue frowned. This old child or young child is the same. It only takes a little scare to work.

"You stubborn old man, just listen to Shu Yue." Old Mrs. Xiao also advised.

Only then did Old Man Xiao agree, but it was hard to say whether he was actually lip service to his promise.

"Are you going out?" Old Mrs. Xiao asked this question when she saw that Jiang Shuyue was not wearing the clothes she usually wore at home.

"There's no meat at home. I'll go buy some and make some lard tonight. I'll use the lard residue to make dumplings for them. This way you don't have to cook."

Baozi is also easy to make, as it has vegetables and rice in one, and all you need to do is make some soup.

The old couple rarely talked about Jiang Shuyue's decision. Even though they felt sorry for spending the money, they also felt that it was not wrong to be nice to others.

Jiang Shuyue was driving the cart alone. Although she was a weak woman, she actually knew how to ride a horse. She learned it in her previous life.

But she was more accustomed to taking the bus. Although it was slower, she could buy some things and bring them back.

She hadn't been to the shop for a few days, so she came to take a look.

There were not many guests, and Jiang Shuyue did not pay attention at first, but then he looked towards the corner again and saw that the man in ordinary clothes was the newly appointed county magistrate, Tan Sidao.

He didn't look at Jiang Shuyue, but just ate his meal leisurely until Liuzi shouted loudly, "Boss, are you free again today?"

Jiang Shuyue smiled and nodded, and caught a glimpse of Tan Sidao looking at her with sharp eyes.

"I came to buy some pork. The workers are working very hard. I plan to make some meat buns tonight."

"It just so happens that we are out of vegetables in our shop. The weather is so hot. You can take a rest for a while and I will buy them all."

Liuzi has always been a smart person. In the past, Jiang Shuyue would have followed him to take a look and would have bought some vegetables if there were any.

But today she didn't do that. She asked Liuzi to get the silver from the account and told him that it would be 20 kilograms of lean meat and 20 kilograms of fat meat.

"Can you lift it?"

"I can lift it!" Liuzi showed off his thin arms, "Don't look at me as thin, I have a lot of solid flesh."

"That's fine, go early and come back early."

"Okay, don't worry." Liuzi said, picked up the purse and went out.

Tan Sidao looked at Jiang Shuyue from time to time. Jiang Shuyue pretended not to know his identity, but she stayed because of him.

"Fuzi."

"Boss, what do you want me to do for you?" Fuzi asked.

Jiang Shuyue found an empty table and sat down. This was not a restaurant, and other shops were empty. However, there were still three tables in Jiang Shuyue's small shop, which was already very difficult.

She poured herself a cup of tea and asked calmly, "How is the sour plum soup in our shop selling?"

"Okay, all right." Fuzi smiled naively, "According to your instructions, I will bring it to the door at noon, and those who don't eat will come over and buy a bowl. These days, even a big pot is not enough to sell."

Jiang Shuyue nodded. Although the sour plum soup was not expensive, it was also her little thought. Many people would be attracted by the sour plum soup, and there would always be people who wanted to eat among them.

Wouldn't this attract some customers invisibly? Doing business also requires boldness and carefulness, and this carefulness should be as meticulous as the smallest thing as a hair.

"Sour plum soup? What is that? Give me a bowl."

The person who spoke was Tan Sidao in the corner.
