The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

Mr. Wen ate a bowl of hot chicken soup noodles and took a shower under Zhou Jia’s service. Sitting on the bed, Zhou Jia helped him dry his hair. Mr. Wen patted Zhou Jia’s hand and said in relief, “Xiao Xi! I didn’t have a family in my life and have taught several disciples. The most loyal people are you and your wife. I’m very gratified. After coming back from this trip, I don’t plan to travel far anymore. I’m prepared to organize those medical cases at home and record my experiences.”

Zhou Jia sat in front of Mr. Wen and looked at him with admiration. “Sir, you’re already old. Although your body is strong, you have to walk so far every time you go out. Yu’er and I are really worried about you climbing mountains and wading in water. It’s good that you’re at home sorting out the medical cases. If you’re bored, choose a child with good character from the farm and slowly train him.”

Mr. Wen nodded happily. “I know you’re filial. I’ll listen to you and help you take care of Yang’er and Seven Pounds at home. However, I still don’t like living in the city. I’ll still move to the farm after the new year.”

What an old child. Zhou Jia looked at Mr. Wen’s tired expression. “Alright, the manor is not far away. If you like to stay on the manor, I’ll leave it to you. Look, your eyes are bloodshot. You must have been busy traveling and didn’t sleep well. Sleep well first. We’ll talk tomorrow.”

“Alright, tell your wife not to hit and scold the children. You have to be reasonable. It was not appropriate for me to say this in front of the children just now. I’m afraid it won’t be easy for you to teach the children.”

“Got it.” Zhou Jia pulled the blanket away. After Mr. Wen fell, he smiled at him and said, “Go!”

Zhou Jia nodded and went to the main hall. Seeing that Ruyi and the children were gone, he smiled and asked Li Yu, “Yu’er, how did the children slip out?

How did you punish them?”

Li Yu told Zhou Jia about the children crawling out of the dog hole and how she punished them to write and sweep the floor. When Zhou Jia heard this, he told Li Yu what Mr. Wen had said. “Sir was still worried that you would beat them up. I realized that Sir is not as energetic as before when he came back this time. I’m a little worried about his health.”

Li Yu patted Zhou Jia’s hand and said considerately, “He promised you that he wouldn’t go far and would stay on the farmstead. After the new year, we’ll also move to the farmstead to accompany him. This way, you’ll have to work harder. ”

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu with a smile on his face. “What’s so hard about waking up two hours a earlier daily? I’ll go see the two children. Oh! Old Madam Liu said that it’s the 8th of December. She asked how much Laba Congee you want to prepare as a gift.”

“Alright, it’s good for you to go and talk to them. There aren’t many families to send Laba Congee to, but we have to prepare more. I’m afraid that people who don’t usually interact with us will send Laba Congee over. We have to return the favor!” Li Yu said with a smile. The couple left the main hall. One went to the small study, and the other went to the kitchen.

When Li Yu saw Old Madam Liu, she suddenly thought of the new thing that

Xiaoyu had mentioned. After arranging for the Laba Congee, she asked Old Madam Liu, “Granny Liu, how’s the lady boss of the Linji grocery store? Did she offend the immortal again?

“No, there was something else new at her house. Her daughter-in-law ran away with someone. On the second day after Shopkeeper Lin returned, she couldn’t find her for a few days. The lady boss was furious. Her daughter-in-law’s family even came to her family to ask for her. They said that her family harmed her daughter. The lady boss said that she spent more than a hundred taels of silver on her daughter-in-law. Why would she harm her? In the end, she still insisted that she saw her daughter-in-law run away with the shop assistant ot the pharmacy, so that tamily gave up.”

Old Madam Liu sighed and said, “Madam, actually, the Lin family is quite honest. The lady boss is straightforward, Shopkeeper Lin is smart and capable, and their son is not bad-looking. The only flaw is that the son woke up with a high fever when he was six years old. Such a tall young man actually speaks and does things like a child of a few years old. He’s also an only child. They originally wanted to spend some money for their son to marry a wife, but who knew that a daughter-in-law would be unfaithful? Don’t you think you’re sad?”

Li Yu thought to herself that the adulterer was a shop assistant of the pharmacy. No wonder the lady boss was drugged with hallucinogenic herbs. Perhaps the two of them originally thought that Shopkeeper Lin would die on the city wall after becoming a commoner, so they attacked the lady boss. Seeing that Shopkeeper Lin had turned around, they stopped. It was better for such a woman to escape. Otherwise, the lives of the Lin family would be in their hands.

“He’s quite sad. His son’s brain might have been affected by the high fever. Teach him based on his age. With a few sisters to help him, he won’t have to worry about not having a good life in the future.”

“That’s right! The Lin family is still considered kind. They didn’t even let that family return the betrothal money. These days, I saw the lady boss bringing her son to help in the shop. I’m afraid it’s the plan you mentioned.” Old Madam Liu smiled.

“Alright, pack the Laba Congee according to my list. Send it over tomorrow with Aunt Zhang and the others.”

Old Madam Liu smiled and agreed. Li Yu came out of the kitchen and went to the small study. She saw that the two children were still writing seriously, and that Zhou Jia was already gone.

Xing Hua said to Li Yu, “Madam, Master went to see Grandmaster Chu.”

In the living room in the front courtyard, Chu Sihai was looking at Zhou Jia happily. “Lord Zhou, we’ve been receiving good news one after another these days. We already know what was written in the letter Madam Li sent back last time. It was to inform Crown Prince Qi that the old emperor of Great Qi is seriously ill.”

When Zhou Jia heard this, he smiled and said, “The Crown Prince of Great Qi has planted spies beside the emperor. Looks like the old Crown Prince can’t wait anymore!”

Chu Sihai smiled and said, “Crown Prince Qi is afraid that his father will cripple him and pass the throne to his younger brother. This time, we planted a spy beside Crown Prince Qi. In the future, we will know everything about Great Qi. General Shen Yu of Qingzhou led the troops to conquer the border city of Great Qi. Great Qi sent an envoy to negotiate. We’re just waiting for the emperor’s

“Haha!” Zhou Jia clapped his hands and laughed. “It’s indeed good news. The Shen family are all valiant generals.”

Chu Sihai chuckled and leaned toward Zhou Jia. He said in a low voice, “There’s also good news for you. I received news that you’re going to the capital.”

“Going to the capital?” Zhou Jia widened his eyes and looked at Chu Sihai in surprise. “Head Shopkeeper said that I am to go to the capital, but I’ve only been in Yunzhou for a year! Could you have made a mistake?”

Chu Sihai looked at Zhou Jia with certainty. “It’s definitely not wrong. I also know that the imperial edict is already on the way. You’ll receive it after the new year. Tell Madam Li that His Majesty has already sent someone to investigate the matter of her submitting a letter. Also, His Majesty has also approved your joint proposal with Lord Wu to settle those veterans who are unwilling to return to their hometowns. From now on, the disabled military service from the battlefield will be settled according to that method. Lord Zhou, I heard that His Majesty praised you and Madam Li for working for the Imperial Court and sharing His Majesty’s worries!”

Seeing Chu Sihai’s confident expression, Zhou Jia also believed that Chu Sihai had legitimate news. He was overjoyed and thought that if he could really return to the capital, his family would be able to reunite with Ah Qing. Yang’er had yet to see his uncle! He wondered if that kid had a woman he wanted to marry..
