Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 324 The Madam officially remarried!
Time flies and it’s March.

Zhang Sui took the officials to the fields and personally supervised the dredging of reservoirs, ditches and other water conservancy projects.

He also piloted an "ecological farm" near Wuji County.

The so-called ecological farm is what he learned in biology class in high school. It uses fish in the pond, grass on the shore, chickens and ducks, etc. to achieve a self-sufficient ecological environment.

In addition, Zhang Sui also ordered every county to advertise for the absorption of refugees!
In this age of war, population is the basis of everything.

The conditions for absorbing refugees were also simple: according to the work point system, as long as they worked, they would have food and clothing.

In order to retain the refugees, Zhang Sui also led some craftsmen to build simple mud houses in groups.

Zhang Sui also established a "Wuji University" in Wuji County.

The teachers at Wuji University were all famous teachers hired by the Zhongshan County government.

Students are divided into two categories.

One type is the intelligent children from aristocratic families, such as the fifth lady Zhen Rong.

The other type is people who have special talents in carpentry, medicine, meteorology and other strange skills.

For all those who were selected into Wuji University, the Zhongshan County government guaranteed their daily food and clothing.

On March 15, Zhang Sui received a reply from Ju Su in Yecheng.

The military supervisor Ju Su highly appreciated his drastic reforms to Zhongshan County.

Ju Su also brought him a piece of news: Yuan Shu of Huainan proclaimed himself emperor in Shouchun!

The Jizhou government was extremely shocked by this.

Yuan Shao even got very angry.

However, Yuan Shao did not make any comment!

On April 20th, Zhang Sui also received a reply from Tian Feng in Yijing.

Not long after Zhang Sui led his army to Zhongshan County, Tian Feng also went to Yijing again.

However, Yuan Shao's army made no progress in the siege of Yijing.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou led their troops to attack the city dozens of times.

The city walls of Yijing were in ruins.

Yuan Shao's army attacked the city wall several times, but they all fell in front of the city wall!
Gongsun Zan did not know whose advice he followed, but he built a large number of iron plates and installed them in the city wall.

The iron plate was full of soldiers.

The passage in the city wall was originally small and could not accommodate a large number of soldiers.

Now that it is guarded by an iron plate, Yuan Shao’s soldiers cannot break through at all.

It was almost impossible to move forward.

Yuan Shao personally led his troops to attack, but was defeated.

What was even more despairing was that when Yuan Shao personally led his troops to attack in anger, he was ambushed and shot by an arrow in the neck!
Fortunately, the force of the arrow had been partially reduced by Yuan Shao's personal guards before it hit him, so Yuan Shao did not lose his life.

Even so, Yuan Shao returned to Yecheng to recuperate.

On April 27, the eldest daughter of Yecheng, Zhen Jiang, her husband and children returned to Wuji County.

The second lady Zhen Mi stayed in Yecheng.

The second son, Zhen Yan, who was the county magistrate of Zhending County in Changshan, also resigned from his post and returned.

This time, the lady did not blame the second son Zhen Yan for being rash.

Although Zhending County was Zhao Yun's hometown, Zhang Sui had already asked Zhao Yun to arrange someone to take care of the second son Zhen Yan.

However, the second son Zhen Yan's ability was too mediocre.

During the nearly one year in Zhending County, he did not achieve any results nor came up with any outstanding strategies.

Instead of continuing to waste time in Zhending County, it is better to return to Wuji County.

Firstly, Wuji County is now the seat of Zhongshan County and is developing.

Secondly, as the largest aristocratic family in Wuji County today, the Zhen family, with the support of Zhang Sui, will only move forward as long as they do not make any mistakes in principle.

When Zhang Sui saw that the eldest lady Zhen Jiang and the second son Zhen Yan had returned, he temporarily put aside all his affairs and freed up a day.

He called together the eldest daughter Zhen Jiang, the second son Zhen Yan, his wife, the third son Zhen Yao, and other managers of the Zhen family and organized a banquet at the Zhen family.

It seems that it will be difficult to see the second young lady Zhen Mi again. Some things have to be said sooner or later.

Especially since my wife is about to give birth.

At this time, everyone was sitting in the hall of the Zhen family mansion, sitting on four-cornered octagonal tables.

Zhang Sui and the second son Zhen Yan sat in the first seat.

The lady sat below Zhang Sui.

Zhang Sui looked at everyone from the Zhen family who had arrived, and then he and his wife looked at each other.

The lady is usually very decisive and does things without any hesitation.

But at this moment, I felt nervous and at a loss.

After looking at Zhang Sui, a blush appeared on her pretty face. She lowered her head and stared at her bulging belly in a daze.

Everyone's eyes were on Zhang Sui and his wife.

Zhang Sui took a deep breath, then stood up and filled the cups of himself, the second son Zhen Yan, and the eldest daughter Zhen Jiang with wine. He raised his cup and said to the second son Zhen Yan and the eldest daughter Zhen Jiang, "Second son, eldest daughter, I will not beat around the bush about the purpose of today's family dinner."

Glancing at the lady beside him who didn't dare to look up like a little woman, Zhang Sui said, "Madam, well, you know, she's about to give birth, and she's pregnant with my child."

"I think that Madam doesn't owe anyone in the Zhen family."

"Over the years, she has worked hard enough for your Zhen family."

"Now that she has found a man like me who suits her temperament, I don't think it's excessive."

"Now, she has chosen to follow me and is willing to completely give up her power."

Looking at the eldest lady Zhen Jiang, Zhang Sui said: "The eldest lady is also a capable person."

"The Zhen family is your Zhen family, not Madam's."

"I believe that after Madam gives up her power, you will be able to run the Zhen family well."

"Besides, even if the lady remarries and becomes my woman, she is still your mother."

"I can only say that if I can help in the future, I will definitely try my best."

"So, I hope you can help me."

Everyone looked at each other with complicated expressions.

Especially the second son Zhen Yan, who looked at the eldest daughter Zhen Jiang and stammered a few times.

He really wanted to say, what should I do with my second sister?
But now, his mother was pregnant and was about to give birth, so it seemed useless to ask this question.

Seeing this, Miss Zhen Jiang forced a smile, raised her glass, and said to Zhang Sui: "The county governor and my Zhen family have a long history."

"Something has happened, and that's all it can be."

Then she pointed the wine glass at the lady and said, "Mother, I am not good at talking, so I won't say much. I wish you and the county magistrate a harmonious marriage and a long life together!"

Seeing this, the second son Zhen Yan hurriedly raised his wine cup and said to Zhang Suihe's wife, "I, I do the same."

Zhang Sui then took his wife's hand and stood up.

The other members of the Zhen family also stood up.

Zhang Sui and his wife held hands and toasted them.

After that, the lady explained the main affairs of the Zhen family to the second son Zhen Yan.

After giving the instructions, the banquet ended and the lady was led away from the Zhen family by Zhang Sui.

Fifth Miss Zhen Rong followed closely behind, chatting and laughing with Zhang Sui about something.

During this period, Zhang Sui also chose a house.

It was the residence of the Wang family that was originally destroyed.

A few days ago, Yuan Mi, Cai Wenji, Zhang Chunhua, Hongyu and others had moved in.

Firstly, the two residences are not far from each other, so the lady can come and visit at any time and even help with the affairs of the Zhen family.

Secondly, the Wang family residence is not much smaller than the Zhen family mansion.

The second son Zhen Yan and the eldest daughter Zhen Jiang looked at Zhang Sui, his wife and the fifth daughter Zhen Rong leaving with strange expressions.

Miss Zhen Jiang wondered, "What are you doing with me?"
