Sheng Rouzhen was lying on the bed, unable to move.

Her eyes were wide open, but their expressions were empty, like a puppet.

Her intimate servants were a little scared and gathered around her bed, calling her in a low voice: "Miss, please speak to me."

Sheng Rouzhen didn't move.

After a while, she turned over and turned her back to the servants.

"She succeeded. Yan Xin succeeded." Sheng Rouzhen's tears fell down her eyes.

Yan Xin really deduced the important matters of people's livelihood.

Sheng Rouzhen could not match the credit she had given to the Governor's Mansion this time, no matter how hard she tried.

When you realize that the person you are trying to compete with is far more accomplished than you, and you may not be able to catch up with him in your lifetime, you feel very desperate inside.

Sheng Rouzhen cried silently for a while and sat up.

She wiped her tears, washed her face and makeup again, changed into a set of clean clothes, and went out.

After the flood, the city was in chaos.

Fortunately, the general order still exists, and the chaos is only temporary and superficial, and does not cause any damage.

The Governor's Mansion suffered no damage, but the west wall of the West Mansion collapsed.

The second lady was furious and scolded the butler and scolded her sons and daughters.

"None of you are useless, you all deserve to die!"

The children avoided her.

"Yan Xin has made a meritorious service again. My father exaggerated that the adopted daughter my wife found was capable, and my mother was very angry."

"Mom was gloating before. I heard her telling the deputy officer that after this incident, even if my father didn't punish Yan Xin, she asked the deputy officer to lead people to Jiang Mansion and shoot Yan Xin." Miss Jing Jiatong said .

Several children were frightened to death after hearing this.

Their mother is really too reckless.

"She has no brains!" Jing Feiyan lamented, "Our mother, why is she like this?"

"If Yan Xin made a mistake and killed her, my mother would be able to vent her anger and take the opportunity to hit my wife; if she then behaved with her father and pushed out six of us brothers and sisters to block the gun, she would still be able to escape." Jing Jiatong said.

Everyone: "..."

But I didn't expect that Yan Xin's prediction was accurate and the second lady's idea failed.

And because Yan Xin's success made the eldest lady discerning and wise in recognizing people, the second lady's head was filled with jealousy.

Xifu is in a state of turmoil.

The brothers dispersed, and sisters Jing Feiyan and Jing Jiatong got together to talk.

Jing Feiyan: "Master Guo also said that Yan Xin would fail. At this moment, he was too embarrassed to see anyone. I heard Deputy Chief Lian Musheng said that Master Guo couldn't even raise his head in the conference room of the military government. .”

Jing Jiatong: "Yan Xin is so amazing."

"...It's nothing special. People who tell fortunes will commit five shortcomings and three shortcomings, and her future may not be good." Jing Feiyan said a little sourly.

Jing Jiatong heard it.

This Miss Jiatong only has half a brain.

When she saw that her sister was a little jealous, she said, "Why are you cursing her? It's a good thing that she has abilities. Dad will not be harsh on us if he has such a powerful adopted daughter."

——We can hide under Yan Xin’s halo, eat and wait for death.

Isn’t this a good day?

Jing Feiyan: "Our biological son cannot compare to our adopted daughter, how embarrassing!"

Jing Jiatong didn't quite understand: "Every mountain is higher than the other. No matter how powerful and outstanding you are, there are still people who are better than you. If you feel embarrassed if you can't compare, why don't you die from exhaustion?"

Jing Feiyan: "..."

The second lady lost her temper and didn't dare to do anything. She stayed at home and didn't go out.

The wives of other high-ranking officials walked up to the governor's wife and asked about the flood, whether they wanted to donate money, and so on.

Also praise Yan Xin.

"The eldest lady is really a lucky star. She has saved so many lives this time that I can't even count them. It's Madam's luck that God sent her to you."

"It's also Madam who has your discerning eye. Without you, no matter how talented the young lady is, there will be no use for her."

When the lady heard them openly praising her and secretly flattering her, she just laughed and said, "My daughter is extremely intelligent and an extraordinary person."

Sheng Rouzhen went home and went to Madam's main courtyard. She heard voices talking in the distance, and they were all talking about her appearance.

Yan Xin will be in the limelight every once in a while.

Sheng Rouzhen straightened her expression and entered the room.

The officials and wives saw her and greeted her warmly.

This is respect for the Overseer's wife.

"...Mom, the water in the city has drained out, and every household is spreading quicklime, including on the streets." Sheng Rouzhen told the governor's wife.

She went out in the morning, which was explaining what she went out to do.

Although Madam does not need her to report.

"Every place flooded must be sprinkled with quicklime, otherwise people and animals will get sick." A lady answered.

"Yes, this is a small disaster." Sheng Rouzhen said, "Should we do something for the people?"

The lady smiled and said, “We are still talking about fundraising.”

"Others are fine. I guess there won't be enough rice. Unless the military government opens a granary. The price of food in the city has already increased." Sheng Rouzhen said.

Wife: "This is a major military and political matter. Let's not discuss it. Let's just raise some rice donations."

Sheng Rouzhen: "..."

Why is it that Yan Xin can dictate military and political matters and even go to the conference hall, but they can't talk about it?

Sheng Rouzhen covered up her strangeness.

Anyway, her message has been conveyed.

After lunch, everyone dispersed, and the wife immediately called her adjutant and asked him to take people to visit the city: "The main thing is to see the rice and grain shops, what are the current prices."

The adjutant said yes.

Soon, the adjutant came back and told his wife: "The prices have tripled."

Madam: "The price is not outrageous, and the city government can't do anything about it. But at this time, the price is rising, taking advantage of the situation and robbing people of their money."

The adjutant said yes.

The lady added: "We should quickly release grain into the market to stabilize rice prices."

However, even if the grain reserves in the military government's granary are released, certain procedures will be required, and it will take three to five days to complete.

The price increase is like a flood, coming with unstoppable force, so this matter must be arranged immediately.

Even though such a small price triples the price, it will still cause some turmoil and cause public dissatisfaction.

"Go to other provinces to buy grain in bulk, or open a granary?" the lady pondered.

It would be nice to have a batch of ready-made rice now.

Jing Yuanzhao is still busy.

Things after the disaster are as important as before the disaster. If you are not careful, everything will be lost. Jing Yuanzhao has been too busy these days to eat or sleep.

It's not easy for Madam to discuss with him.

As for the Overseer, to discuss something important with him, you need to come up with a reasonable plan instead of discussing it with him.

Madam needs to make the final decision and convince the Overseer with the result instead of discussing with the Overseer what to do.

——Nothing can be agreed upon.

Madam muttered alone, wanting to call Yan Xin over and ask her what she meant.

However, she knew that Yan Xin was also busy recently, probably with a lot of things.

Madam was pacing in place, thinking about several ideas in her mind.

At this moment, Yan Xin is entertaining Cheng Sanniang at home.

Cheng Sanniang wanted to transfer half of the shares in the two dance halls under her name to her. Yan Xin shares the money and earns dividends.

Yan Xin was very happy.

"By the way, Sister Cheng, I have something more important and I need your help," Yan Xin said.

Cheng Sanniang: "What's the matter? You can stop the loss in time for me this time. If you have anything to do, just say it."

"Does Sister Cheng have a vacant, large shop in the city?" Yan Xin asked, "It can be used at any time. It's best to clean it up tonight and use it tomorrow."

Cheng Sanniang: "What are you going to do?"
