Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1011: Chapter 1008: The Person Behind

However, this was not a difficult task for Ye Muyu. In a society with a background of big data, extracting useful information from an abundance of data had already become a most critical skill in business.

And she, had previously studied business.

Ye Muyu sat down and asked Chunqin to bring her paper and ink. After spreading out an entire sheet of paper, she drew a chart. Her writing was in small seal script, and with small characters, she was not worried about running out of space after drawing the chart.

Chunqin passed her books of the same type, and Ye Muyu then extracted the key information, compiling it according to content, uniformly.

Chunqin saw what she was writing, and although she couldn’t quite understand it, the characters were neat and orderly, not at all like they were written haphazardly.

While Ye Muyu was immersed in her hard work.

In the back house, the beloved concubine watched the two people who had been sent over and had already cried twice. If County Magistrate Sun had not been able to speak out to stop her, she might have already been furious enough to find someone to plot against them in secret.

“My lord, how can you bear this? They will only bully you more and more,” the beloved concubine sent all the servants away, clutching his hand, and said with indignation.

County Magistrate Sun knew all too well, “Now is not the time. We haven’t heard back from Minister Lin yet. We need to deceive Chu Heng into getting the method of managing the floods, but we can’t really let him manage it well. Otherwise, in the future, the Ministry of Revenue won’t continue to allocate funds.”

“You just bear with it for now, this ugliness will surely be avenged once Chu Heng and Eunuch Ren have left the county government,” ground his teeth and said.

“My lord, I knew you were the most capable,” the beloved concubine smiled satisfactorily.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But her gaze fell on their injured buttocks, and her eyes immediately reddened again. While applying medicine to the two men, she said bitterly, “Husband, I have already sent my brother to teach Chu Heng a lesson. He wants to manage the floods? I’ll make sure he can’t find any information.”

“What have you done?” County Magistrate Sun asked while drawing in a breath of cold air.

“I had my brother warn the villagers, making sure they dare not tell Chu Heng much. If there’s a chance, they’re to make Chu Heng stay in the water a bit longer; who knows, if he’s unlucky he might turn into a fool,” the beloved concubine sneered coldly. “He’s just a minor official from the capital and newly appointed as an imperial examination graduate this year. I’m afraid he doesn’t understand any of being an official. What’s most laughable is that he even brought his unsophisticated country wife with him.”

“To think that woman dared to make me look foolish in front of others!” The beloved concubine’s face was filled with resentful anger, “I must make her pay dearly!”

County Magistrate Sun stroked her hand, “Calm down, don’t get angry. The daughter of a concubine from Minister Lin’s house has entered the Chu family’s backyard. Even for Minister Lin’s sake, we must take care of this woman Ye Muyu.”

“Today’s caning has made me realize, that woman is not stupid. Knowing to please Eunuch Ren makes it somewhat troublesome,” County Magistrate Sun frowned, his mind already full of schemes he wanted to use against Ye Muyu.

“Find an opportunity when she’s out alone and directly abduct her,” he said offhand.

The beloved concubine nodded, a cold smile on her face, “Rest assured, my lord, I have plenty of ways to deal with her.”

As the two spoke, anxious footsteps sounded at the door.

The beloved concubine abruptly looked up, scolding displeasedly, “I ordered that no idle people should come over.”

“Lady, it’s not good, Eunuch Ren has brought people and barged into the archives storage,” the bailiff at the door was sent by the sub-prefect.

The beloved concubine’s complexion changed drastically, “How dare he.”
