In the afternoon, Xiao Hanzheng and Fei Yuzhe returned and heard such a play.

Xiao Hanzheng told the yamen runners to treat the people in the prison the same way they usually treat prisoners.

Anyway, they broke off their relationship a long time ago. Ge Chunru was not his elder, and no one could say anything.

Ge Chunru knew the law but broke it, so there was nothing wrong with him locking people up.

Xi Rui and the others enjoyed the play, and everyone went back to the inn to have a good meal before they dispersed.

Back to the room.

Shi Qingluo asked with a smile: “Little Mother Ge brought her brother to the county government office to make a scene, and now she is detained in the prison. Should we send a message to the scum father?”

Xiao Hanzheng chuckled and said: “Don’t worry, wait for the scumbag father’s people to deliver it.”

“I found out that at noon today, Little Mother Ge had someone forcefully get the scum father’s confidant drunk and throw him into the inn.”

“Otherwise, the scumbag father’s confidant would stop them from doing so.”

The scumbag father sent his confidant to follow to keep an eye on Ge Chunru and prevent her from causing trouble.

But the scumbag father probably didn’t expect that his newly married wife was so capable.

Shi Qingluo thought about it and it was right. Letting the scumbag father’s people report the news, especially adding the drunkenness, would make the scum father even more angry.

She asked with some curiosity: “What do you think the scumbag father will do?”

“Will he come to Heyang County to pick her up in person?”

If the scumbag father came in person, then the pit she dug before would only be half effective.

Xiao Hanzheng chuckled and said: “Given the character of the scumbag father, he won’t come in person, it will make him look partial and pervert the law.”

“The main point is that we are here. The scumbag father knows that he will not end up well if he comes. He is a smart man.”

“Besides, he just arrived in North City and has just handed over the position of deputy governor. He is really busy and has to deal with Prince Jin.”

“Even if he rides back and forth on horseback, it will take several days. Some of the things he has laid in North City will have problems. He will not affect the layout for such a thing.”

Hearing him say this, Shi Qingluo was relieved: “Sure enough, in the heart of the scum father, only himself and power are the most important.”

However, Ge Chunru has indeed consumed almost all the scumbag father’s love.

The scumbag father’s house has caught fire once, and it should not catch fire again.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded: “Yes, he always puts power and himself first.”

So in fact, Ge Chunru’s true love was just a joke.

They should let her recognize this reality as soon as possible.

The two exchanged a few words and then changed the subject.

Xiao Hanzheng used a handkerchief to dry Shi Qingluo’s hair: “Have you decided what workshop to open?”

Shi Qingluo replied: “Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao are going to jointly set up a workshop to make nougat and milk candy, and then open a wool workshop.”

“Wool is twisted into wool, and female workers are specially recruited to weave wool products.”

“Xi Rong will continue to run the rouge workshop.”

“Here in the county, I suggest that the county government can open a candle workshop and a canning workshop.”

“Everyone here raises sheep, and there are nomadic peoples next to them. We can purchase sheep fat and mutton at a low-cost price.”

“Sheep fat can be used to make soap, scented soap, candles, and hand cream.”

“All the meat will be made into canned meat.”

“Just for the canning workshop, you still need to discuss with the Emperor and ask him to have someone send a batch of rubber here. ”

“If the canned food doesn’t deteriorate after being stored for a long time, you have to use rubber to make a rubber ring and embed it in the bottle cap.”

Xiao Hanzheng nodded: “Okay, I’ll write an urgent letter and send it to the capital tomorrow.”

Shi Qingluo said again: “By the way, there is a kind of rubber grass on the northern border that can be cut into rubber. I will take people out to find it recently.”

“As long as I find it, I will breed rubber grass seedlings and let the people of Heyang County plant it. The future income will not be bad.”

“If we need rubber in the future, we don’t have to ask the Emperor for it. While allowing the people to generate income, we can also be self-sufficient.”

In modern times, rubber grass, Brazilian rubber tree, and silver guayule were known as the world’s three major rubber-producing plants. The Academy of Agricultural Sciences has researched rubber grass, and she also participated in it at that time.
It just so happens that rubber grass is distributed here, so of course we have to make good use of it.

Xiao Hanzheng embraced Shi Qingluo from behind: “Thank you for your advice for your husband.”

He had a plan for how to govern and develop Heyang County, but he was short of money.

His wife helped to make up for this biggest problem.

She was his good wife.

Shi Qingluo leaned against him lazily: “We are in the same boat, who can I advise if I don’t give you advice?”

If her husband lived better, she could live better.

She was mainly good at making money, but she was not good at governing and developing the county.

So many things still need to be coordinated by her husband, such as how to recruit workers in the county government, how to use people, etc., all of which he has to do.

And how to communicate with the Emperor to ask for things, that also need to be done by the young husband.

Xiao Hanzheng chuckled and said: “That’s right, we are not tired when we work together as a couple.”

Then he picked up Shi Qingluo and held her sideways: “Let’s go surfing on a boat first.”

Shi Qingluo hugged his neck and gave him a look of laughter and tears.

Her husband was getting more and more flirty.

That day, she casually made a metaphor, saying that it was surfing or something, and he remembered it.

Then the two of them went to sail the boat……

The next day, Xiao Yuanshi’s confidant woke up in the inn.

Then he found that none of the people they brought with them were in the inn.

The confidant suddenly panicked. Where did the Madam go?

Someone got him drunk. Is she going to do something big?

He immediately ran to ask the innkeeper.

Only then did he know that Ge Chunru led people to the county government office to make trouble yesterday, and also beat the county magistrate and the yamen runners, so she was put in jail by the new county magistrate.

Hearing this news, the confidant wanted to faint.

If the master knew about this, he would not end up well.

So he hurried to the county government office to visit the prison but was rejected.

Then he also learned that it turned out that the master’s eldest son was transferred to Heyang County as the new county magistrate, no wonder he dared to arrest the Madam and throw her in jail.

The confidant knew the Xiao Family’s affairs very well and also knew the hatred between Ge Chunru and Xiao Hanzheng.

Now that Ge Chunru has taken the initiative to deliver the handle to Xiao Hanzheng, it would have been strange if Xiao Hanzheng hadn’t taken this opportunity.

So this matter couldn’t be settled peacefully.

He thought about it and didn’t write a letter to report the news, but rushed to Beicheng at full speed.

Anyway, he couldn’t save anyone if he stayed in Heyang County, so he might as well go back and confess his crime in person.

The confidant didn’t delay along the way and was also on the road at night, so it only took two days to get to Beicheng.

After returning to the Deputy Governor’s Mansion, he went directly to the study.

Xiao Yuanshi was practicing calligraphy at this time. Since he was mocked by Mrs. Kong, he habitually practiced calligraphy every day.

While practicing, he couldn’t help but think of Mrs. Kong.

He doesn’t know why, when he went to the war, Mrs. Kong was still his wife, but he forgot about her day by day.

But now that they were divorced, the memory of Mrs. Kong’s beating and fighting him in the capital, as well as her lively appearance, became clearer and clearer in his mind.

As he thought about it, he even wrote the wrong word.

Then he heard someone report that the confidant who went with Ge Chunru had returned alone.

He couldn’t help but have a bad premonition.
