Chapter 99: Master Of The Local Government

Liu Sanniang walked quickly, but she couldn’t shake off Chu Yan.

She returned home and slammed the door behind her, panting heavily.

Chu Yan smiled outside the door and turned to leave.

Liu Sanniang returned to her house and washed up before sleeping.

At night, she saw Liu Ju’er’s future.

In a daze, she heard Liu Ju’er’s laughter. Liu Sanniang was very happy for her.

She knew that when one was loved, one would definitely be happy.

In Yang Village.

After everyone left, Yang Qingshan brought the two roosters into the house. Liu Ju’er looked at the torn red sack and felt a little sad. “Zhi’er, Sanniang, and Huihui gave this to me.”

Yang Qingshan touched her head, not knowing how to comfort her. “Didn’t your mother prepare this?”

Liu Ju’er smiled bitterly and shook her head. “No, she’s not my mother. My mother pa.s.sed away very early. My father married her later.”

Yang Qingshan felt a little sorry for her and said, “I see.”

It was because Madam Zhou was her stepmother that she would go out of her way to make things hard for Liu Ju’er. After Yang Qingshan understood the matter, he was a little angry. He thought that Madam Zhou was kind-hearted. He did not expect her to be so vicious.

Come to think of it, a normal mother would not have set the marriage on this day.

Yang Qingshan reached out and hugged Liu Ju’er. He was now a husband and the pillar of the family. He said gently, “Don’t be sad. You won’t need to tolerate her in the future. Tell me who treats you well. I’ll go up the mountain to catch some wild animals to send them as a gift. From now on, you make the decisions in this family, and I’ll just listen to you.”

Liu Ju’er couldn’t help but laugh. “You said it.”

Yang Qingshan was a little embarra.s.sed. “Yes, I said it and I mean it. You are in charge.”

In any case, he did not have anything. He had to work hard in the future.

Liu Ju’er felt a warmth in her heart. This was their wedding night, but she was not familiar with Yang Qingshan. Before this, she had only seen him once from afar. She only knew that Yang Qingshan had no parents and was very poor.

But now, she understood Yang Qingshan. Although it was just the beginning, she already had feelings for him.

Sanniang did not lie to her. She would get better in the future. Her stepmother made things difficult for her and made her feel aggrieved. However, the outcome was already very good.

Liu Ju’er leaned against Yang Qingshan to feel the warmth of his body.

…

After Liu Ju’er’s marriage, Liu Sanniang was finally relieved.

In her previous life, Liu Sanniang never heard that Liu Ju’er had experienced something like that on her wedding day. However, her married life was indeed very difficult. In the first two years, she did not return home.

Liu Sanniang didn’t know if that had anything to do with Madam Zhou, but anyhow, it was all good now.

In her previous life, Liu Sanniang didn’t go out much.

But now, she didn’t care about the opinions of others because she was going to take on a different path.

If there was a problem, she would solve it.

Madam Wei decided to let her get engaged to Chu Yan. This way, they could show up in public together.

Liu Sanniang thought about Chu Yan’s request and gritted her teeth in anger.

Madam Wei found Chu Yan to be an especially likable boy. She said that if they were engaged, not only could he protect her openly, but he could also come to their house for dinner.

If you wanted to grab a man’s heart, you had to grab his stomach. When he came, Sanniang would be asked to cook for Chu Yan.

Mr. Liu, Liu Erlang, and Liu Dalang all agreed with Madam Wei.

Liu Sanniang didn’t know what to say.

In late July, Wei s.h.i.+lai finally had time to pay a visit to Liu Sanniang.

When Wei s.h.i.+lai came, it was noon. He avoided Madam Wei and Mr. Liu.

Wei s.h.i.+lai came in and smiled. “Miss Liu, what are you doing? I can smell the fragrance even before I enter the house.”

Liu Sanniang entered the kitchen and quickly brought out a stack of peach pastries. “Sir, you came at the right time. These are the snacks I made.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai looked at the small and beautiful peach pastries. He took one and nodded. “It’s delicious.”

The peach pastry was fragrant and sweet. Coupled with a cup of hot tea, Wei s.h.i.+lai was satisfied.

Liu Sanniang sat down and ate the peach pastries too.

Her culinary skills had been honed for decades. Be it embroidery skills or culinary skills, they were all very good. In his previous life, his eldest brother’s great-grandson loved to eat the snacks she made the most.

Wei s.h.i.+lai smiled and said, “Miss Liu, to be honest, I come this time because I have something to ask of you.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Please go ahead.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai said, “Ever since I became an official, I’ve encountered many difficult cases. Sometimes, I’m always a step behind. My colleagues recommended some masters to me. They didn’t like me, and I didn’t like the way they did things either.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai was very straightforward, so he could not tolerate the masters who liked putting on airs. Not only were they pretentious, but they also asked for a lot of money.

However, after knowing Liu Sanniang, his understanding of this world had been overturned. He was willing to put down his pride and invite Liu Sanniang to work with him.

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Okay, I agree.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai was a little surprised. “Miss Liu, don’t you want to take your time and consider it. You don’t have to give me an answer so quickly.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “The last time I went to River Village, I heard your thoughts and already knew you wanted to hire me.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai was speechless.

Therefore, Liu Sanniang already knew about it and had been considering it for almost a month. That was why she gave him the answer so readily.

Wei s.h.i.+lai looked at Liu Sanniang solemnly. “Miss Liu, I can only give you ten taels of silver a month. I know hiring masters will cost a lot and you are much better than most of the masters.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “I’m not like them. Ten taels is enough for me.”

Ten taels a month was an amount that ordinary people might not be able to earn in a year.

Wei s.h.i.+lai looked at Liu Sanniang and remembered that when he was in River Village, he saw Liu Sanniang bathed in the Buddhist light. Her entire body was filled with a holy light. Wei s.h.i.+lai stood up and cupped his hands at Liu Sanniang. “Thank you, Miss Liu.”

Liu Sanniang stood up as well. “Magistrate Wei, you can just call me Sanniang. You are almost the same age as my father.”

Magistrate Wei smiled. He was much older than Mr. Liu.

“Miss Liu, you are different from others. I need to show respect for you and call you Miss Liu.”

“If you insist,” Liu Sanniang replied with a smile.
