“You,” Zhao Xiuying glared at him angrily, then snorted coldly and left with the docunt.

She brought their son and the servants back to the main residence.

I lowever, they were robbed by refugees on the way and had to give up all their money and food before escaping.

After dinner, Zhao Xiuying took the docunts to Lord Zhao’s study.

When Lord Zhao saw her while handling so docunts, he turned around and pointed to a stool at the side. “Have a seat. I heard that you were robbed on your way back.”

“I was; they’re a group of poor peasants who escaped from the wilderness. Father, you have to avenge your daughter.” After Zhao Xiuying finished, she described the scene in detail.

Even now, she was afraid they wouldn’t let her off after taking their money.

Lord Zhao sighed. “There has been a drought for two years in a row, and the land is basically barren now. Refugees are fleeing everywhere, so we won’t find anyone even if 1 send people to look for them.

“Just treat it as losing money to avoid a worse disaster.

“By the way, why did you bring your child back in such a chaotic ti?”

“Oh, that’s right, 1 ca over because I have sothing for you.” Zhao Xiuying handed the docunt to Lord Zhao.

After reading it, Lord Zhao’s expression was hideous.

“Father,” Zhao Xiuying said imdiately, “This Mayor Kong is sure making things ugly. We shouldn’t let him off so easily.”

“You know nothing.” Lord Zhao snapped.

If he were to make things difficult for another governnt official just because of a servant, his position in the governnt would be over.

However, it was pretty embarrassing that this happened.

He knew he couldn’t openly do sothing about this, but that was different if he did it in the dark. Thinking of this, his eyes flickered as he smiled.

“Father….” Zhao Xiuying looked at his malicious smile and couldn’t help but shiver.

“Do this….” Lord Zhao waved at her and whispered a few words into her ear.

“Rember to do it in private. Don’t give anyone anything they can use against you,” he reminded her.

Zhao Xiuying s eyes lit up at the great idea. Not only could this vent their anger, but they would also solve the problem of the refugees. It was akin to killing two birds with one stone. She nodded and said, “I’ll rember that. I’ll go back and implent it tomorrow.”

“Okay, I’ll arrange for soone to send you back tomorrow. Rember, it won’t be peaceful in the future, so don’t go out alone.”

“I will rember that. Well then, I will take my leave.” Zhao Xiuying left the study after she said goodbye to her father.

The following day, the Zhao family’s guards escorted her ho.

Half a month later, many refugees arrived in Yunhe County, causing more chaos.

However, it was quickly suppressed by the soldiers.

County Mayor Kong had to call on large families to open their warehouses and provide porridge to calm the refugees.

When Zhou Ying saw this, she asked Sun Hongliang to follow the wealthy families in the town and build a shed outside the town.

However, what she gave was not porridge but a soup with so flour dumplings. She added a little at, oil, and vegetables, which the refugees loved.

At noon, Zhou Ying went to the cloth shop and picked two sets of fine cotton clothes for Gu Ziqiu as a congratulatory gift.

When she returned, she saw Chang Shun waiting in the restaurant. “Uncle Chang, why are you here? Did sothing happen in the manor?”

“That’s right. There were thieves in the village last night. Although they were discovered in ti, many white potato vines were still ruined.” Chang Shun stood up and spoke with a pained expression.

Those were the sweet potatoes that they had painstakingly preserved. Just like that, these thieves had ruined nearly an acre of land. It really made them furious.

After Zhou Ying heard this, she thought of the groups of refugees outside, and her face suddenly darkened.. She asked, “Did you catch anyone?”
