"The junior sister knows that I am not like this."

"I don't know now."

"Don't the little sister believe me?"

A girl who is stupid enough to go to the rice shop to ask about the price every day, and occasionally the rice price drops a little, can be happy for several days.

"If I hadn't heard about this in Dongshi, I wouldn't have known that you had released the grain restriction order."

Ouyang Rong said seriously: "I don't have enough pockets. Money is not important to me, justice is only important to me."

"Your justice is to let go of the price of grain rises at will?" Xie Lingjiang took a deep breath, "You are better than the Liu family who opened a porridge shed."

Ouyang Rong frowned, "The porridge shed opened by the Liu family... I don't know whether the junior sister is real or fake."

"Don't worry if I know or not, I only believe what I see now." Xie Lingjiang turned his head and pursed his lips. After a while, he said, "At least he can do it, where is Ouyang Lianghan?"

Ouyang Rong was hugged, and after seeing the youngest sister who seemed to be angry for a while, she asked:

"My junior sister knows that what I did must be for the benefit of the people of Longcheng... Then why do you still say these angry words and aggravate people?"

"Who is angry? Let's not mention what you are trying to relax the food price? I... am not as smart as you in this regard, and I can't figure it out for a moment."

Xie Lingjiang turned around and glared at him:

"But Ouyang Lianghan, you don't discuss any plans with others in advance, and you look like you are too lazy to say more. Are we... companions, am I still your aide?"

"Forehead……"

Ouyang Rong vaguely understood some women's brain circuits, but he only understood one thing, just like the seven orifices that were connected to the six orifices, and there was still nothing to understand.

"How about discussing with you now." He sneered.

In fact, if the junior sister didn't mention it, someone would really forget that he had an aide. What? The junior sister turned out to be an aide? Isn't she the force of force? The aide is an intellectual...

"No!"

Xie Lingjiang raised his white chin and refused firmly:

"No need to say, I'm not that stupid, I'll think about it myself... But Ouyang Lianghan, have you ever thought that the current increase in grain prices will affect the people of Longcheng in the short term? Maybe, this will become the last straw that overwhelms a certain household."

Ouyang Rong was silent for a while. This was a question that he had been silently avoiding in his heart these days, so he kept urging himself to move quickly and ruthlessly.

He said seriously: "The disaster relief camp outside the city has been providing food and clothing."

Xie Lingjiang looked at the young county magistrate silently for a while and seemed to suddenly appear to be tired. She sniffed and turned around and left.

Today, she is wearing a red dress, coming and going quickly.

Same as a person.

"Little junior sister."

Ouyang Rong suddenly shouted at the fiery red back.

"In fact, sometimes justice comes at a price." He felt lost.

Xie Lingjiang stopped.

"I... disagree."

The woman left stubbornly.

...

"Sister Xie has something to worry about?"

After the Su Mansion dinner, on the flower path back to the residence, Su Guer asked without looking back.

Xie Lingjiang glanced at her graceful back swaying on the ground with her long skirt.

"Sister Su doesn't have a good meal, why are you staring at me?"

"Sister Xie's mood is written on her face, so she is naturally conspicuous."

Xie Lingjiang asked: "Sister, do you know that sometimes what you say is quite annoying?"

Su Guer was not angry either, and turned his back to Xie Lingjiang's back, and nodded his head lightly:

"But I'm telling the truth."

Xie Lingjiang said nothing.

Su Guer asked, "Is it related to your senior brother?"

Xie Lingjiang actually didn't know much about this little girl from the Su family. Perhaps because of the natural arrogance between outstanding women, the two often had a dispute over ideas before, and later they simply stopped fighting. After all, they lived under the same roof and tried to talk about some topics of getting along.

However, Aunt Su was very hospitality and treated Xie Lingjiang like her daughter, which made her mother's death very warm. Aunt Su told her to spend time with her to talk to Su Guer, who had few friends at the age of her.

Xie Lingjiang walked quietly for a while, and then he made a general statement about the matter of letting the food price go with his senior brother in anger.

But what she never expected was that after hearing this, Su Guer nodded and asserted:

"This son is full of talent and knowledge of the classics and ethics. Sister Xie doesn't need to worry about the price of food."

Xie Lingjiang was speechless, "Didn't Sister Su say that my senior brother is arrogant a few days ago?"

Cai Shou, who was following the second daughter, also looked at her lady with a confused look on her face... Miss Wu, didn't you say last time that the new county magistrate was a hypocrite?

The young lady of the Xie family is new, maybe she doesn't know, but Caishou knows that her ladies have always liked to comment on people privately, and they have always looked at people accurately. In the past, the master and the eldest master would ask the ladies for their evaluation and opinions on the people or times they had had contact with the Su family for dinner.

So on the surface, outsiders only know that the lady is a young girl who is spoiled by the Su family, but they don’t know that the lady has the right to make suggestions and even make decisions about many things in the Su family.

It was strange, but it happened anyway. The Master Su's family and the eldest son didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with a woman's interference in the family affairs, but she was quite convinced...

Regarding Xie Lingjiang's doubts behind her, Su Guer's expression was as usual: "He can indeed be arrogant."

Back to the water pavilion courtyard, they said good night to each other, and the two girls separated.

Su Guer returned to the boudoir and did not wash up immediately. Instead, he turned around and walked to the desk, grind ink and spread paper, brushed up his long sleeves, and found a small white hand, his nails, and his five fingers. He pulled out a slender sheep hair.

She tilted her head and looked at Mei Lin outside the window, and gently tapped the white chin of the oval face from the tail of the pen.

"Caishou."

She called out.

"Miss, what's the matter?"

"Tell me a message to my father and brother."

Su Guer lowered his eyes and wrote, and opened his pink lips lightly: "Don't send his servants, I'll go to the county government in person in the past two days..."

In the study, the lady who lowered her head to write carefully, and the little maid with a bun nodded and tried to write it down, then she scratched her head with her hands, combing her hair and went out to pass the message.

The study room has returned to silence. The girl with plum blossom makeup on her eyebrows has already put her pen and went back to the house to sleep in spring. The ink on the rice paper that was casually falling ink under the leisurely fun of the book desk is undried: Jiusi, or leaping in the abyss, without any blame.

This is the nine-fourth line of Qian hexagram in the first hexagram of the Zhouyi. If Ouyang Rong, who "knows a little" in everything happens here, he will be able to understand some general meanings:

The dragon may fall into the abyss, but its strength has been accumulated. Just move forward or backward according to the situation, and there will be no mistakes. You can try...go ahead.

I just don’t know if this is written to the young county magistrate or to the Su Mansion.

...

Su Guer didn't believe in fate very much, but later he believed it and even specialized in studying the Metaphysical Book of Changes.

Tonight, she dreamed of the warning from the Taoist minister after he wrote a spirit-making speech for him:

"Your Highness's eyes and phoenix neck are the most noble, but he is still a destined nobleman who is destined to meet before he soars into the sky."

"Where is the noble man? How can I find him?"

"This man is in the abyss and is in the throne of the bright moon. He will be an official in this county and resign. He will write a tribute to his resignation and retirement. The verse and poems will be given to His Highness at the end. By then, His Highness will be able to soar to nine heavens, but remember that in addition to sharing hardships, this person must also share wealth and honor in order to stabilize His Highness's destiny."

She frowned and said coldly: "Don't I look like a rich person?"

The monk lowered his eyebrows: "I don't know."

...

There is a story that spread to various shopping streets and grain shops in Longcheng County:

The county government has insufficient food.

There is a rumor that Jiangzhou is short of food. In order to please the supervisor, Lord Shen, the new Ouyang County Magistrate lent a lot of reserve grain from the disaster relief camp to Jiangzhou. The group of soldiers from Zhechong Mansion who recently left Longcheng transported the grain back to hand over the service.

At present, the market vendors also discovered that a group of people suspected of being in the yamen were collecting grain at a high price.

I don’t know whether this news is true or false, but Longcheng County Government has never denied the rumors, which is very suspicious, because if it is false, you must denied the rumors. If it is true, then you must denied the rumors. As for not denied the rumors, isn’t that the default is to be made up?

It’s not like it’s intentionally raising the grain price, right? Even if it’s intentional, the grain merchants will follow the tricks.

Anyway, no matter what, the next day, the rice price in Dongcheng City, Longcheng County rose into the sky like fireworks. At the most exaggerated time, three price cards were inserted in the rice bag of a rice shop in Dongcheng City.

The news of the surge in grain prices is that some companies are happy and some are sad, but they have not yet gathered too much. Another thing now is that the merchants in the city are full of enthusiasm, that is, the Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Festival event will be a few days later.

The old Penglangdu wharf, which had not been repaired for a long time, was renovated and expanded with the help of the county government and several wealthy water transportation businessmen in the city. After the completion, the new county magistrate came to celebrate the ribbon cutting in person.

Now, the expansion of the new ferry has ushered in a steady stream of foreign ships.

News of the Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Festival in Longcheng County has spread to many counties and prefectures in the upper reaches of Yunmengze and the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Many wealthy officials and businessmen came to visit with their wives and children to participate in this only Dragon Boat Festival event in Jiangzhou.

However, the tourists who walked off the tall and luxurious boats such as the wharf were not all Jiangzhou people who were suffering from floods in their hometowns and could not pass the Dragon Boat Festival. There were also some luxury merchants from other states in the middle...
