My Wife is a Psychic

104 A Paradise

“Jiang Si will be an official, and I’ll just get married. We don’t need to rely on each other. I wish Jiang Si the best in the exam.” Jiang Xi smiled and swallowed Yang Fen’s words.

Yang Fen was so angry that she rolled her eyes and turned around to leave. She thought, ‘Jiang Xi, this girl, is really unforgiving with her mouth. Let’s see if you’ll suck up to him after Jiang Si marries the eldest daughter of the prefecture governor and becomes the top scorer!’ However, since Jiang Si’s future wife come to visit him, they had to give her a gift. Yang Fen turned around and looked at the things that Jiang Xi had casually thrown in the corner of the room. Any one of those things was worth a fortune!

Yang Fen’s thoughts were clear, but she did not think that much now. Yesterday, the matchmaker said that Jiang Si was still busy with the exam. She might as well take advantage of this time to get engaged for good luck! Maybe Jiang Si could become the top scorer in one go!

Yang Fen was also afraid that something would go wrong and she would lose a good wife, so she agreed. Although the matter was a little urgent, she was relieved that everything was settled. Yang Fen was very clear about her family’s situation. If Jiang Si could not get married to the prefecture governor’s eldest daughter and could not take advantage of the prefecture governor’s influence, she was afraid that Jiang Si would not even be able to fork out the money to take the examination in Jing City.

Putting aside the fact that Yang Fen was in a hurry to prepare the things for the marriage proposal, the Song family of Jiang prefecture was also so anxious that blisters appeared on the corners of their mouths.

“This time, I’ve found you a son from a poor family to marry. He definitely doesn’t know about your past. He’s going to Jing City to take the exam. While time is tight, you two should get married immediately. During this time, you’re not allowed to go anywhere. You’ll be married directly to the Jiang family!” Song Qi’s face darkened as he looked at his daughter, who was standing straight and holding a horsewhip in her hand. His eldest daughter had been weak since she was young and had lived in the old home to recuperate. Who knew that his once weak and gentle eldest daughter’s temperament had changed greatly after she fell into the water? Her eyes would light up when she saw the maidservants in the manor and she found three marriages for them. She had even beaten all of them until they were half paralyzed.

Song Qi felt that his eldest daughter was becoming more and more strange. If he was not sure that his daughter was a girl, he would have thought that she was the reincarnation of a hooligan who flirted with young girls every day! Therefore, he was in a hurry to get his elder daughter married. In order to make his elder daughter behave, he locked her in the house without any room for negotiation.

The wedding is being hurriedly prepared…

The post-disaster population registration for the happy village was soon carried out. the official carried a book and started from the first village. basically, every village had a lot of casualties. among them, seven people in Laifu Village were frozen to death, and twelve people starved to death. Daming Village was united against the outsiders. Moreover, the village chief was a capable person. no one was frozen to death or starved to death. However, there were two drunkards who went out to drink. After drinking, they fell asleep in the snow and could not get up. In Qingfu village, 17 people were frozen to death, and 19 people were starved to death. It was said that several of them were girls. In Baofu village, three people were frozen to death, and six people starved to death.

At this moment, the bailiffs had arrived at the entrance of Happy Village. A few of them were wearing thick cotton-padded jackets and holding onto booklets. They sighed as they walked, “It’s been a whole morning, and I haven’t even had a sip of tea. So many people have died, and I’m too embarrassed to ask them for tea.

“The blizzard has just passed. There’s nothing to eat at home. Bear with it for a while. The investigation will be over soon.” The officers were a little numb. “I think there will be more casualties at Happy Village. The former village chief wanted to curry favor with general Zhao Ruifeng’s unmarried wife, so he made the little girl the village chief. What do you think a little girl knows? I’m afraid many people in the village will starve to death! By the way, when we investigated, those villages built a lot of new houses, but they did not tell us why they were building those houses. They just told us to go to the Happy Village.”

As they were talking, they walked through the gate of the Happy Village. As soon as they entered the village, they were stunned. The originally empty village was now full of houses. Smoke rose from the kitchen chimneys, and children were playing in the snow. They were holding white steamed buns in their hands, nibbling as they ran. It was completely different from what they had imagined. The cries of babies could be heard from the houses from time to time.

“You’re here for the village chief to count the number of people after the disaster, right? The village chief’s house was right in front. You just had to walk to the end of the road. You guys can just follow the big red ‘happy’ sign. Someone in the village chief’s family has passed an imperial examination and is going to hold a wedding. We’re still making arrangements.” The pregnant woman saw the officers and pointed them in the right direction.
