Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 94 The Swordsman



He squinted his eyes to look at Jiang Ling, and then looked at the tidy yard, and suddenly found that Jiang Ling didn't seem to have a male master beside Jiang Zhishan, his younger brother, and all the people in Lujia Village were named De Lu.

Thinking of this, Mr. Zhao suddenly showed a treacherous smile. He cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Jiang, I haven't seen your husband for so long. Did you go to work in the fields?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Ling, and even Zhao Qianyu showed a look of gloating.

"Master Zhao, it's not good for you to inquire about a private woman's privacy, right?" Before Jiang Ling could open his mouth, County Magistrate Duan immediately made a relief.

"County magistrate Duan, what you said is a bit too big. What is privacy? Isn't it normal to get married and have children? Could it be that the Jiang family in front of you gave birth to so many children alone?" Mr. Zhao sneered.

"You...you are not allowed to insult my mother!" Jiang Yaojie ran up to Jiang Ling and said, staring.

"Yaojie, go back!" Jiang Ling patted Jiang Yaojie's shoulder lightly, signaling Jiang Yaojie not to get angry.

Jiang Ling walked up to Mr. Zhao, first saluted Mr. Zhao casually and said: "My lord, have you ever beaten your wife?"

"This..." Mr. Zhao didn't expect Jiang Ling to ask this sentence, he opened his mouth for a long time but didn't say anything.

Jiang Ling pursed her lips and smiled. She looked at Mr. Zhao and continued, "Since Mr. Zhao can't answer my question, it is enough to prove that Mr. Zhao is a good husband who loves his wife."

"It's a pity that I'm not as lucky as Mrs. Zhao. My previous husband disliked me for not being able to have a son and always abused me. If I don't reconcile with him, I'm afraid Mr. Zhao won't be able to see me today. Yes, I am indeed alone. With four kids!"

"Master Zhao, you must be more curious. I said I can't have a son, but why are there two sons, one big and one young, right?" Jiang Ling raised her eyebrows and looked at Master Zhao in front of her.

Mr. Zhao was even more speechless, and his complexion became particularly bad. He stared at Jiang Ling as if he wanted to swallow Jiang Ling alive. In this life, he hated others for being able to figure out his thoughts, but the Jiang Ling in front of him happened to be him. The kind of person I hate the most.

The village chief next to her was so frightened that she almost lost her breath, but Jiang Ling was unflappable in the face of danger. She replied calmly and neither humble nor overbearing: "These two sons were adopted to me by others, but I don't care if they are adopted or not." , since they call me mother, then I have to take on the responsibility of mother!"

"My lord, so I don't think He Li is ashamed, not to mention that I take care of these four children very well now!"

Jiang Ling's answer made County Magistrate Duan and Mr. Zhao froze in place, and they opened their mouths for a while and were at a loss for words.

Jiang Ling added calmly: "Master Zhao, is there any question?"

"No...no more!" Mr. Zhao took advantage of drinking water to hide his embarrassment repeatedly, and Zhao Qianyu who was standing aside was even more surprised, his father was usually so articulate that he couldn't speak fluently.

Just as he was about to open his mouth slightly, his father glared him back with a sharp knife.

"Why is it so lively?" A majestic voice came from outside the door.

Before Jiang Ling could see who he came to know, County Magistrate Duan and Master Zhao quickly lifted their robes and knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, Jiang Ling pulled the four children over and followed closely behind. After seeing this scene, the village chief immediately bent his legs and knelt on the ground.

"Master Zhifu, why are you here?" The county magistrate Duan's words almost scared the village chief into fainting.

Prefect?For these peasants, they are people who are out of reach and untouchable. Now two county magistrates and one magistrate have all appeared in Lujia Village.

The village chief patted his chest hard, trying to relieve his beating heart in this way.

"Get up!" the magistrate looked at the people kneeling on the ground and said.

Everyone nodded and stood up sparsely.

"Kang'an, Tianqi, you two come here!" The magistrate waved his hand and said to them.

After hearing this, the two walked up to the prefect, first saluted the prefect, and then stood beside the prefect with some rigidity.

"My lord, why are you here?" Magistrate Zhao asked attentively.

"Me? Why did I come here and do I need to report to you?" It was obvious that Magistrate Zhao's flattery was not in the right place, and the magistrate gave him a hard look.

After hearing this, County Magistrate Zhao quickly shrank his neck and drooped his head and stopped speaking. The magistrate's gaze fell on County Magistrate Duan, and his originally indifferent expression was instantly replaced with joy. He looked at County Magistrate Duan and said: "Kang Ann, I heard that you solved the drought in your subordinate villages and towns?"

"Yes, magistrate, but I didn't do it alone!" After the magistrate Duan finished speaking, he pointed to Jiang Yaojie who was aside and continued to add: "This person is named Jiang Yaojie, and he was the first to solve the drought problem in Lujia Village. He also provided the solution to the surrounding villages free of charge, without his solution, the villages and towns under his command would have no harvest this year!" The county magistrate Duan is not a person who is very successful, he quickly pulled Jiang Yaojie out and said.

"Oh? This is really a strange boy? Come here, kid!" The magistrate narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiang Yaojie after hearing this.

Jiang Yaojie trembled when he was watched by the magistrate, and he immediately looked at Jiang Ling for help, but Jiang Ling raised the corners of his mouth and nodded to Jiang Yaojie.

Jiang Yaojie walked up to the prefect with a little weakness in his legs, kowtowed respectfully to the prefect, and then stood up.

"You are Jiang Yaojie? You discovered this source of water?" Although the magistrate's tone sounded peaceful, it gave off a strong sense of oppression because of his official position.

Jiang Yaojie didn't dare to say much, so he could only nod his head slightly. The magistrate praised Jiang Yaojie a lot. Seeing Jiang Yaojie wearing patched clothes, he quickly took out an ingot of silver from his purse and put it in Jiang Yaojie's arms, signaling Jiang Yaojie went to buy two good clothes.

"Then who came up with the method of controlling locusts?" the prefect continued to ask.

County Magistrate Duan pointed to Jiang Ling and replied, "It's Jiang Yaojie's mother, Mrs. Jiang!"

"Oh? Mrs. Jiang?" The magistrate's eyes suddenly fell on Jiang Ling. He never thought that the person who proposed such a method was actually a village woman.

He carefully looked at Jiang Ling, who was wearing coarse linen clothes full of patches, and he didn't think that the village woman with dark skin in front of him could think of such a way.

But the magistrate never judges people by their appearance. He squinted at Jiang Ling and asked, "Mr. Jiang, how can you, an illiterate village woman, know this method of exterminating insects?"

"Returning to my lord, this is also due to my deceased grandmother. My grandmother is a female doctor. She has a deep understanding of medicinal herbs since she was a child. She also wrote a prescription for controlling locusts. In fact, the credit for controlling locusts There are also all the villagers of our Lujia Village, Li Shanren and Duan County Magistrate of Changning Town, without their cooperation, even if I have three heads and six arms, I will not be able to control this locust plague!"

Jiang Ling's words stunned almost everyone present. No one would have thought that Jiang Ling didn't ask for credit alone, but included everyone in Lujia Village.

The magistrate also showed a satisfied smile after hearing Jiang Ling's answer. He glanced at the county magistrate Zhao next to him and scolded: "Zhao Tianqi, listen to me! Look at you again! I am also here together How can there be such a big gap between my colleagues!"
