After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Chapter 145
Although it was time to rest, Su Xiaomu still had some things to say to Gu Jingcheng.

After she moistened her throat, she went to the cabinet and took out the membership card she had prepared and handed it to Gu Jingcheng, asking him to take it to his wife.

"Now the city where my club is located is quite famous. Many wives and young ladies like to come here. I think my wife is also very interested in this place. When you go back tomorrow, help me bring this to her. There is some money in it, and it is a little love from me to her."

Su Xiaomu was thinking about the failure of her last visit. She could not help Gu Jingcheng with his studies, and that was the only thing she could do.

So he added: "When Mistress comes here, I will play with her personally."

"Thank you, thank you for thinking of me in everything."

Holding the card, Gu Jingcheng did not refuse Su Xiaomu's kindness.

He knew that Su Xiaomu was doing it for his own good, and that he was the first in all planning, so he was naturally moved in his heart, and he was even more reluctant to part with Su Xiaomu.

The imperial examination is coming soon, he must let Su Xiaomu see his sincerity towards her within this period of time, and let Su Xiaomu know that no matter what, Gu Jingcheng will not let her down.

Gu Jingcheng secretly made a decision in his heart, and he took out the gift he had prepared for Su Xiaomu from his bosom.

A double lotus wood hairpin was carved by himself.

"Give it to you, I'm not good at craftsmanship, I hope you will forgive me."

Gu Jingcheng handed the hairpin in front of her. Under the dim candlelight, Su Xiaomu looked at the wooden hairpin in a daze. It was the style she liked, but why?
Gu Jingcheng likes to give her hairpins so much?
Su Xiaomu had doubts in her heart, but she didn't think too much about accepting a gift, and accepted it happily.

"Thank you. In fact, the most important thing about a gift is the intention. The one that suits the intention is worth even thousands of gold."

It was made by Gu Jingcheng himself. I didn't expect his craftsmanship to be so good. The whole body of this wooden hairpin is smooth and round. One can tell that the maker has polished it very carefully without any barbs.

Looking at it like this, she became more and more happy with this thing.

But Su Xiaomu likes it, so of course Gu Jingcheng is also happy.

As the days passed day by day, Su Xiaomu was in a very happy mood every day.

This clubhouse plus the daily revenue of the dessert shop, it can be said that she earns a lot of money.

Looking at the daily ledger, Su Xiaomu suddenly had a feeling that he didn't know what money was.

Moreover, at the end of the month, Zhou Lin sent someone to deliver the fruit saplings she wanted, and Su Xiaomu's mood was at its peak.

Su Xiaomu asked the people sent by Zhou Lin to help her transport the saplings to the farm, and then called Uncle Liang to call someone to plant all the saplings in the ground.

Because of the clubhouse, Su Xiaomu has long been a famous figure in the village. In addition, she spends a lot of money, and everyone in the farm loves to work under her, so now when they hear that Su Xiaomu is looking for someone, everyone There was a rush for her work, and in a short while there were all the people planting trees.

It's just... the tree was planted, but there was a problem with the water for the tree.

Su Xiaomu looked at the people from the next village who came to look for trouble, and suddenly lost his good mood, one head and two older ones looked at them.

The people from the next village were very arrogant towards Su Xiaomu and the others. They all held iron rakes or sickles in their hands. Those who didn't know thought they were going to work in the fields, but those who knew knew that they came to make trouble on purpose.

"The people in your village are really selfish. This water source is obviously flowing from us to you. They use the water from our village, but they refuse to give any compensation. Isn't it too shameless?"

Standing in the front is Xu, the village head of their village. Now he is looking at Su Xiaomu with a greedy face and a longing face. His eyes are like looking at a lot of money!
"It's true that this water source belongs to you, but if it flows to us, our people can still use it. No one wants to listen to the words you are saying that are not beneficial to the overlord, and there is no reason at all."

Uncle Liang stood up and spoke first. After all, it wasn't the first time that this creek was kept here. Our ancestors have come here for generations, and it was the first time I heard that someone wanted to benefit from the water.

Of course, the head of the village next door also knew this truth, but they were just jealous. Why did they suddenly have a Su Xiaomu building a clubhouse in their farm?

The business of this club is so booming now, I heard that there are high-ranking officials and dignitaries who come and go every day, how much money do you want to earn?

Their village just has less chances, otherwise, if they also met such a big boss, they wouldn't be so poor now!
When he thought of the delicious food and spicy food in the neighboring village, and the poverty and hardship in his own village, Lao Sun, the head of the neighboring village, became even more unbalanced. His face was cold and his face suddenly distorted.

"Let me tell you that you must pay us for using our water, 500 taels of silver a year, otherwise we will cut off your water source. Let's see where you can find water!"

After Lao Sun finished these words, his whole body suddenly became clear, and he laughed loudly: "I really want to see how your clubhouse can continue to operate without water!"

After all the words have been said, Su Xiaomu would be a bit stupid if he couldn't understand.

The people from the village next door obviously came to them to take advantage of the autumn wind, it was really hard for them, and they even came up with a grandiose reason for asking for money for water.

But don't say it, it really threatened her a little bit.

When Su Xiaomu first built the clubhouse, she inspected the surrounding environment, so she was very clear about the water problem.

The farm has a source of water, and the hot spring water comes from the mountains above the farm.

But its water volume is too small. After supporting the daily hot spring water, it cannot support the farmland water.

Most of the villagers farm and still need river water for irrigation.

Besides, her hot spring water clubs are not enough, and there are too many minerals, which is not suitable for irrigating crops.

In this way, if the water source is really cut off in the neighboring village, it will really be a disaster for their farm.

Su Xiaomu stood behind Uncle Liang and didn't say a word. She kept thinking in her heart, could there be a solution to this matter?
But she was silent, and Lao Sun and the people he brought would not be silent. The inside and outside of the words were that if they didn't give money today, they would cut off the water source when they went back, and they would have to fight with them today.

Such a big posture made Su Xiaomu really difficult to deal with. Before she could think of a reason, a stone flew from a distance and hit her on the head. She was stunned instantly and called her His head was smashed, and blood gushed out.

The momentary pain made Su Xiaomu wake up, which also stimulated the people on the farm side to wake up. Everyone started to fight like a guy, as if they didn't make a scene and felt uncomfortable.
