Chapter 150 Harmonious Mother-in-Law and Daughter-in-Law Relationship
Dealing with intelligent and knowledgeable people is so much easier.
He Zhang had read extensively since childhood, possessing a wide range of knowledge and exceptional comprehension skills. He could often quickly guess what Jiang Xinyu was describing.
In addition, the governor's mansion has money and manpower.
Unless it's something particularly rare, once this is confirmed, the other side can quickly bring the actual item over. After confirming that everything is correct, it can be recorded in the register.
With He Zhang's help, Jiang Xinyu's work efficiency improved significantly.
After finally finishing her morning's work, Jiang Xinyu didn't let He Zhang return to Ye Xiao's courtyard. Instead, she had someone set up a meal there.
At this critical moment, time was of the essence, and they had to make the most of every second. Even at the dinner table, the two of them were discussing topics related to flood control.
Jiang Xinyu has recently resumed a normal diet and is thinking of slowly replenishing her nutrition after Xiao Yuan leaves and everything is completely alright.
He Zhang and the eunuch's wife got along very well. He never expected that a young lady from the inner quarters of the house would be so knowledgeable.
However, it is strange that he only knows the general idea of what the lady is talking about and often calls things by the wrong names.
Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing; this state between knowing and not knowing is truly strange.
It's as if someone once taught her this knowledge, but she only listened to the general idea and didn't study it seriously. Now that she wants to use it, she has to pull it out of her memory.
Fortunately, Jiang Xinyu was unaware of He Zhang's inner thoughts, otherwise she would have definitely grabbed his hand with tears in her eyes and cried out that she was a kindred spirit.
That's right, she just didn't study hard enough; she owes all her non-core subject teachers a sign-in sheet.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were having a pleasant conversation, but Ye Xiao was getting restless.
In the past, he found He Zhang's constant chatter annoying, but when He Zhang suddenly went silent for a whole morning, he felt quite lonely.
She flipped through the book for a while but couldn't concentrate. She finally made it to lunchtime, thinking He Zhang would come back, but the maid found out that the lady had invited her to stay for lunch and the two of them had already eaten.
Ye Xiao nearly smashed the table.
Could these two have actually started dating?
He's really courting death; he can't be his godfather just for show.
The young man couldn't quite tell whether he was worried about He Zhang's life or whether his godfather's reputation would change.
Anyway, he heard that they were having a very pleasant conversation, so he didn't even eat.
Ye Xiao really wanted to go to Jiang Xinyu's courtyard and cause a scene to drag He Zhang back.
Unfortunately, our strength doesn't allow it!
Knowing he couldn't beat them, he wasn't stupid enough to walk right into their trap.
It must be said that Jiang Xinyu's strategy of striking once to avoid being struck a hundred times was absolutely correct.
It is indeed very effective in dealing with impulsive and easily angered brats like Ye Xiao.
With his godfather not home and unable to fight back, Ye Xiao had to find other ways to vent his frustrations in order to avoid getting sick from holding it in.
He had someone carry him to the courtyard, grabbed a dartboard, and shot it at a target, pretending the wooden figures in front of him were Jiang Xinyu and He Zhang.
Even if he can't use his legs, he can't lose his skills; he has absolute confidence in his darts.
If those two really did hook up, he would personally kill the adulterous couple without his godfather having to lift a finger.
He Zhang didn't leave until Xiao Yuan returned in the evening. When he got back to Ye Xiao's courtyard, he saw the target that had been torn to pieces.
Well, seeing how lively Xiao Ye is, he feels relieved.
Ye Yexiao didn't give him a good look when he saw him come back. He snorted and turned his head away.
Although he didn't say a word, he exuded the message, "You know how to come back, why didn't you just die out there?"
He Zhang chuckled and took the medicated oil to rub Ye Xiao's hands. Sure enough, his skin was rubbed red, showing that he had practiced a lot today.
Ye Xiao, being young and easily angered, awkwardly withdrew his hand and retorted sarcastically.
"I came back at this hour because my godfather sent me back?"
You're supposed to be pretty smart, how come you don't even know this basic sense of propriety?
That woman asked you to stay with her, and you really dared to? Aren't you afraid...?
He Zhang finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Ye Xiao shoved him angrily.
"What's so funny? I wasn't worried about you. I was afraid you'd anger my godfather and drag me down with you."
He Zhang wasn't annoyed by being pushed and continued to apply the medicated oil to Ye Xiao with a good temper.
While giving him a massage, he told Ye Xiao about what he had discussed with Jiang Xinyu that day.
"If Xiao Ye doesn't believe me, come with me tomorrow. You've been out there for quite a while, so you can come up with some ideas."
Putting everything else aside, the lady truly treated the Grand Eunuch with utmost sincerity and care, attending to every little detail.
Such painstaking preparations were made in case the Grand Eunuch suffered even the slightest hardship outside.
Ye Xiao looked at He Zhang suspiciously, "Are you serious?"
That woman...she really...
Hmph, that's to be expected. Her godfather is her husband and her everything.
Any other woman would have taken it to heart too.
He Zhang knew that Xiao Ye was being disingenuous, but he didn't argue with him. He only let people set out the meal after he finished rubbing the medicated oil on Xiao Ye, coaxing him just to get him to eat a few more bites.
Ye Xiao has lacked love since childhood and likes to be coaxed by others. Now that Xu Qinglan no longer has that love, he is truly powerless against He Zhang's tenderness.
Although he still had a cold expression, he ate all the food that He Zhang put on his plate, acting as proud and arrogant as a cat.
It's not unreasonable to say that Ye Xiang resembles Xiao Yuan; the father and son share the same nature.
If Ye Xiao is a little tabby cat who loves to fight and is easily angered, then Xiao Yuan is a Maine dog who appears aloof on the surface but is actually a henpecked husband.
He rushed home excitedly, wanting to get close to his wife, only to find a beautiful plush toy sitting next to her. He didn't immediately fly into a rage, all thanks to his wife's excellent training.
However, his aloofness only lasted until He Zhang was kicked out. Once there were no outsiders in the room, he immediately snuggled into his wife's arms, looking for comfort.
While he was out dealing with trivial and messy matters all day, He Zhang was fortunate enough to spend all his time with his wife.
This is unfair; he wants to change.
Who could resist a strong, muscular cat that keeps rolling over and begging for a pat on the back? Jiang Xinyu knew he was deliberately picking a fight, but she still played along and coaxed him.
They cursed Zhang Zhongyi for being treacherous and cunning, criticized the court officials for being incompetent and lazy, and also cursed the dog emperor for being idle and making trouble out of nothing.
Her supervisor is so busy every day, he's so pitiful! My dear wife, don't feel bad about it!
It's fortunate that the governor's mansion was surrounded like an iron barrel, preventing any news from getting out; otherwise, those rebellious couple would have been killed eight hundred times over.
When Jiang Xinyu discovered that He Zhang had a great learning ability and was definitely quick-witted, she had the idea of taking him on as a disciple.
It wasn't really about taking on a disciple; it was just about passing on some modern knowledge to He Zhang so that he could explore new avenues and carry it forward.
Many things are just a thin layer of paper away; once you understand the theory, it's easy to do them.
Jiang Xinyu is very self-aware.
In modern times, He Zhang would be considered a child prodigy who was admitted to Tsinghua University in his teens without taking the entrance exam. As an ordinary person, she couldn't even come close to his intelligence.
The reason she became a teacher was because she had the advantage of information asymmetry; she was better at making friends through martial arts than inventions.
Ye Xiao was both anxious and angry that He Zhang had been spending so much time with Jiang Xinyu for several days in a row, but since his godfather hadn't stopped him, he was helpless.
Every time He Zhang came back, he would throw a little tantrum, but even though He Zhang coaxed him, he still went to report for duty on time every day.
He Zhang's exposure to modern scientific knowledge was like a carpenter meeting Lu Ban, or a folk inventor meeting Einstein.
If it weren't for the fact that the supervisor would really kick him out when he came back, he would have preferred to cut down his sleep time and learn from Jiang Xinyu.
Jiang Xinyu hadn't expected He Zhang to be so eager to learn.
The two of them had originally been researching disaster relief-related topics.
Now she feels that after Xiao Yuan leaves and she has more free time, she can teach He Zhang some other physics and chemistry knowledge as well.
Who knows, there might be some invention that benefits the country and its people and brings good fortune to the masses.
