After being widowed, I pampered the rough man general by farming

Chapter 100: She really hit the imperial examination question

"General, everyone's food has been returned one after another, how about yours?"

Villagers in each village picked up food and returned it to Zhu Jiangjiang one after another, and Xiaohuang Village also began to return it. Only Pei Ji remained silent.

"My husband is going to Jiangbei prefecture this time, and I will help you to remind the Jiangbei county government to return the food for you." Pei Ji was very fond of him, and he was reluctant to get on his horse and leave.

He has dragged on for two days. If he doesn't go to Jiangbei Prefecture today, Tu Jing will go crazy.

"That's good!" As long as she returned the food, she could say anything.

"But..." Pei Ji glanced at the direction of Pei's house, very puzzled, "Where did you hide the food that came from the villages these days? Why can't I find it?"

These days, the grain sent by the villages was enough to fill several Pei's houses, but it was strange that he couldn't find a grain of extra grain in Pei's house.

When Zhu Jiangjiang heard this question, a trace of guilt appeared on his face, and he forced to change the subject with a dry smile, "Why, do you want to find out where I hide the food so that I can transfer my property?"

"Miss!"

Pei Ji sighed, "We are husband and wife, why should I transfer your property?"

He never meant it that way.

"In that case, don't ask any more questions. I have to go to the construction site. See you later." Zhu Jiangjiang was afraid of revealing his secrets, so he hurriedly slipped away.

She came to the construction site on the way, not to see him off.

On the construction site of the school, the villagers who can come to help after harvesting the rice have already arrived.

Together with the people brought by the Zhou brothers, they shoveled up the soil, picked it up with baskets and dustpans to fill the official road, and picked up the excess to the planned vegetable field.

Zhu Jiangjiang came just to see the progress, and stopped by to settle the wood's money.

She agreed with the Zhou family brothers that the payment must be made when the materials enter the site, otherwise they will not build the house. This is what they suffered last time, so both parties need to be cautious.

Zhou Shi and Zhou Xian were unloading the truck with the wood delivery workers. Seeing Zhu Jiangjiang approaching, Zhou Shi stopped what he was doing and ran towards her.

He wiped off the sawdust with the towel he carried with him before approaching her.

"Miss Zhu, I heard that you've been very busy these two days. In fact, you don't need to come in person. I'll just go and find you." Zhou Shi laughed.

He came to work from the city these few days, and on the way he met many people who came to Xiaohuang Village carrying food.

After asking, I found out that they all came to return Jiangjiang's food.

After meeting wave after wave of people who returned food, Zhou Shi's impression of Zhu Jiangjiang suddenly increased several levels.

He thought she was just a little rich country lady, but he didn't know that she had done such a great thing, saving the whole Jiangnan Town villagers by herself.

So the two brothers were more concerned about helping her with work.

"No, I just dropped by the way as I was taking my husband out." Zhu Jiangjiang pointed at a galloping figure on the official road.

Although she refused to admit their husband and wife relationship in front of Pei Ji, she always regarded Pei Ji as her husband-in-law in front of outsiders.

There is a lot of gossip in front of the widow, even if it is for convenience, she will not do it if she can not be a widow.

The two found a place and sat on the floor, Zhu Jiangjiang took out the abacus he carried with him, and counted it.

After arriving at a number that both of them have no objection to, count the money and settle the payment on the spot.

She now has food in her hands and is full of confidence.

Coupled with the fact that autumn tea is hard to come by, she has earned a considerable amount of money in the past few days, so she can build a school and build roads at the same time.

When returning to the village, Lu Cuihua and the others were helping to cut rice in their own crop field.

Now, in Xiaohuang Village, her family's crops have not been harvested yet.

"Sister-in-law, Grandpa Wu said that Brother Zhou is coming back soon, right?" Pei Xiaoyu didn't know when he heard the news, so when he saw Zhu Jiangjiang, he ran over to ask.

"Really?" Zhu Jiangjiang looked dull, "I don't know, there hasn't been a letter from the city..."

The two aunts and sisters-in-law were talking, but before they finished speaking, they heard the sound of carriages and horses coming from a distance, accompanied by the shouts of Xiaojiu and others.

"I wish my sister, my brother won, and my brother won the exam!"

"Who wins?"

The people who helped cut the rice in the fields, and the old people in the village who picked up the ears of rice that fell in the fields, couldn't help but straighten their waists to look at the sound.

"Sister-in-law, who won the exam?" asked the person closest to Zhu Jiangjiang.

Zhu Jiangjiang smiled awkwardly, "I don't know either."

They were too far away, and the autumn wind was in a hurry, so they only heard the word "zhongju", but they couldn't figure out who had won it.

Moreover, it was not only Xiaojiu's carriage that was driving towards them, but also Ming's carriage.

If Ming Ji came, Zhou Liang and Zhu Qingran would both be possible.

When the carriage approached, Xiao Jiu, who hadn't seen him for a long time, hurried down from the carriage and ran to tell Zhu Jiangjiang the good news.

"I wish my sister, my brother won the exam, my brother won the exam!"

They were singing in Jiangbei Prefecture, and when the news came, they had just finished singing, so they returned to Xiaohuang Village with the news.

It's just that when I went out of the city, I happened to meet Ming Ji.

In fact, Ming Ji also came to tell her the good news, "I wish my lady, congratulations."

"It seems a bit weird for you to say congratulations to me, just tell them." Zhu Jiangjiang felt that the congratulations had nothing to do with her, so he didn't need to congratulate her.

Mingji just smiled and didn't speak.

He congratulated, in addition to congratulating Zhou Liang Zhongju, he also congratulated her husband for returning.

"Xiao Jiu, did your brother say when he will be back?"

Zhou Liang lived up to expectations, she really won the exam, then she can let go of her agricultural plans for the coming year!

Before Xiao Jiu and the others had time to ask about this question, Mingji explained: "It may take ten days and a half months for the champion of Jinke to return to his hometown for a job. Master Zhu has not received any news yet."

Any news he said refers to promotion or returning to his hometown.

But judging from Zhu Lin's situation, he hasn't been able to get promoted in all these years, so it might be difficult this time.

"It's okay, I've won the exam anyway, so there's no harm in waiting another ten and a half months."

Zhu Jiangjiang was happy for Zhou Liang, but he didn't act as crazy as Pei Xiaoyu and the others. They were almost jumping into the sky.

"Second brother, take your younger brothers and sisters back to pack up your things first, and come to my house for dinner at night, and I will make a celebration banquet for you."

No matter what they said this time, they came back from a tour, so of course they have to celebrate.

I don't know if their performance went well, and if the shopkeepers took good care of them for her.

in the village.

After Liang Wenzhou heard the news about Zhou Liang's Zhongju, he immediately fell ill.

He regretted it, regretted that he was blinded by profit and missed the opportunity when Zhu Jiangjiang said he would help him win the exam.

He also never expected that she actually won the imperial examination question. How did she do it?
