Jin Qi praised Jialan for being brave and resourceful, and asked her what other rewards she wanted.Jialan only asked for a day off to go home and ask for some military ointment to use on her mother who had frostbite on her hands.Jin Qi agreed.Delphinium pretended to apply medicine for Xiao Lian, and casually asked how Hua Sheng was discovered. She learned that Lan Xiang found out the problem by looking up the book. She felt unhappy, but still spoke softly on her face. Xiao Lian still thought she was a nice person.

It was rare for Jialan to rest. Her parents were afraid of waking her up, and even the neighbors had called her in advance to let her have a good sleep.After getting up, the food was ready. She applied the medicine to the sweet-scented osmanthus with her own hands, fearing that her mother would be reluctant to use it.After the meal, she took out the bounty. The couple had never seen so much gold in their home, and they thought they could finally redeem themselves.However, Jialan reminded that the Lin family was not short of money, so it was not appropriate to propose it rashly now and they would have to wait for an opportunity.Even though her parents didn't fully understand, they were still willing to listen to her.

But something big happened in the military camp: the cotton-padded clothes under the clothes were stuffed with inferior stuffing, and some soldiers froze to death.Sun Yong brought people to ask for an explanation, suspecting that Jin Qi had colluded with businessmen and swallowed military supplies.The boss could only suspend him first.Jin Qi promised to find out the truth and go to the person in charge. The person in charge said that time was too tight at that time, so he purchased from Lu Dalang. Someone testified that the goods were inspected before delivery, and he could not be held accountable at the moment.

Jin Qi's loss of power also affected the second lady's marriage.The Xie family broke off the engagement because of the incompatibility of their horoscopes, and the second wife came to inquire about the suspension.She believed that Jin Qi was not unconscionable and did not blame him. On the contrary, she saw clearly that the Xie family was following the trend and felt that it would be better for her daughter not to marry him.Lin's father came to reprimand his son, but his second uncle made sarcastic remarks. The two brothers started to fight, and Lin's mother and second wife could only busy protecting the things in the house.

Jiugao and Nanke looked for Lu Dalang everywhere, but could not find him.Jialan thought that sewing women would always be hired to make large quantities of cotton clothes, and workers would often take back the leftover materials for their families to use. Maybe she could get clues from this.She took the two of them to Nancheng, where poor families live. Jiugao pretended to be a salesman and visited. Sure enough, he saw that the children's shoes were made of the same fabric as military uniforms and stuffed with reeds. The woman who took over this batch of work was probably nearby.
