Chapter 1,702 Extra: Cleaning up the Battlefield

Except for Shen He's family, every family in the village has been harmed, but the degree is different.

The village chief immediately called on the whole village to clean up the battlefield and report the losses.

Shen He was not idle either. The guards who had come to rest dragged the wolf carcass back outside the yard. They skinned the wolf carcass when it needed to be skinned and hung it when it needed to be hung.

Shen He was grateful for their help, so he cooked a large table of sumptuous meals for them.

All the injured guards received good treatment.

Uncle Wang came over and asked Shen He: "What do you plan to do with so many wolf corpses?"

"Second Uncle, do you have any good suggestions?" Shen He asked with a smile: "I plan to keep part of the wolf skin, make some mattress pads, sew leather pants for Second Uncle, and sell the rest."

Second Uncle Wang suddenly felt embarrassed: "No, Second Uncle doesn't need these, just sell them all! I have a good relationship with the butchers in the city, and I won't cheat you on the price."

Shen He said seriously: "This wolf corpse also has the credit of my second uncle, how can I forget it? Second uncle, leave this matter to me. I will handle it all."

Uncle Wang scratched the top of his head and said, "Okay, you can make the decision. I'm not good at this."

On the third day, the snow on the official road began to melt, and several carriages were parked outside Shen He's house.

Wen Jian rushed in like a breeze: "Sister, are you okay? I rushed here non-stop as soon as I received the news. I didn't expect that it would be too late to hurry up."

When Shen He saw Wen Jianqing, he immediately smiled and frowned: "It's okay, what can happen to me? This level is over. After cleaning the battlefield, it's time to prepare for the New Year. Jianqing, are you over there in Kyoto?" Is there any special news?"

Wen Jianqing replied with a frustrated look: "There is no useful information. I have been keeping an eye on the rising young men in the officialdom these days, but none of them are the people we are looking for."

Shen He could not hide the disappointment on her face, but she still comforted Wen Jianqing: "It doesn't matter, take your time. We still have decades to find each other. Look at me, it took me half a year to find you, maybe next year We can find others." Wen Jianqing nodded, cheered himself up, and said casually: "Sister, don't worry, this snowstorm will be fine. Emergency preparations have been made, and disaster relief food will be provided soon. Just bring it over. I'm worried that you don't have enough food here, so I'll give it to you.

I’ve given you two carts, and I’ll give them to you again after you finish eating. "

Shen He immediately called to other people at home, unloaded all the food from the carriage and loaded it into the storage room at home.

She would not be polite to Wen Jianqing!

What's more, there are many people here, and food is consumed quickly, especially since she has eaten so much in the past few days, and the food reserves at home are about to be exhausted.

Wen Jianqing came just right!

Shen He said with a smile: "Since you are here, I will make you bone soup for lunch. This wolf meat is rare."

In previous lives, wolf meat was also hard to come by.

This life is also rare.

As expected, Wen Jianqing was not polite to Shen He. He stayed with Shen He for another two days and returned to the town with the others.

Shen He still only had ten guards left, two young men and two maids.

It's the end of the year, and the guards have to go back to pay their dues.

Sure enough, Second Uncle Wang contacted the butcher for Shen He, and Shen He sold all the unused wolf meat and fur for more than three hundred taels of silver.

With money, Shen He became more confident again.

Originally, Shen He planned to buy some New Year goods, but with Wen Jianqing here, he had prepared everything, so Shen He could just wait and celebrate the New Year with peace of mind.

The village chief only came over to ask if there were any casualties, and left after making sure that Shen He was fine.

Other people in the village didn't care about others, and everyone was busy rebuilding after the disaster.

Suddenly, people in the village stopped talking and everyone was busy.

Second Uncle Wang came back from outside and unloaded the New Year's goods from the car. Shen He immediately said, "Second Uncle Wang already has everything at home, why do you still buy it?"

The second uncle Wang said with a smile: "What you prepared is what you prepared, and what the second uncle prepared was what the second uncle prepared. It's not the same thing. If the second uncle shamelessly lives here with you and doesn't buy anything, how can that be okay?" "

Just as Shen He was about to speak, he heard someone calling outside the door: "Is the second son of the Wang family at home?"

Seeing that the other party was looking for him, Second Uncle Wang immediately responded: "Here you are, who are you?"

Shen He and Uncle Wang looked outside at the same time and saw a matchmaker standing at the door, looking at them with a smile on his face.

Most of the matchmakers in this era are state media.

The official media means that those who have passed the clear path and have legal procedures are linked to the government.

There are also matchmakers among the people, but they have few resources and a low success rate.

So most people still like to deal with official media, after all, they have a lot of resources!

Second Uncle Wang saw that it was a matchmaker and hurriedly greeted him: "This is Second Aunt Zhao."

When Matchmaker Zhao saw Uncle Wang, the smile on her face became more genuine: "I've been having bad luck these days, so I didn't come to see you. It's a great day, so I just wanted to come and have a look."

Shen He on the side immediately understood that this was the matchmaker who introduced Uncle Wang to his partner, and immediately said: "Second Mrs. Zhao, come in and talk. Don't stand outside. It's cold and you can go inside and have a sip of hot tea."

"Hey, hey, hey!" Matchmaker Zhao responded happily, took Shen He's hand and looked up and down, and said, "It's the Chinese New Year, isn't it the eleventh day for Shen He?"

"Yes." Shen He smiled and answered. She didn't have to get married anyway, so age had no other meaning to her.

Shen He invited Zhao Matchmaker into the house, and a maid immediately brought hot tea.

Zhao Matchmaker looked around and became more and more satisfied. She said to Uncle Wang: "Such a big family business is really not easy! This requires servants and maids. I see there are guards outside?"

Uncle Wang smiled faintly: "These are all earned by Shen He."

The implication is that no matter how good this place is, it is not his own, and he is just staying here temporarily.

If it weren't for the house being broken, he wouldn't be here.

Shen He understood what Zhao the matchmaker meant and replied, "This is also Uncle Wang's home." Zhao the matchmaker was waiting for this sentence. Zhao the matchmaker turned to Uncle Wang and said, "Today at the market, I took people from Xuejia Village and Fengjia Village in Sangou Township to have a look secretly. Both families were very satisfied, so I came here to listen to your opinion.

You sold so many things at the market today, they are worth a lot of money, right? It's no problem to build a house, right?"

Uncle Wang was a little embarrassed: "Those things are also Shen He's, I just helped sell them."

But Shen He replied, "It's absolutely no problem to build a new house. Uncle Wang is building a house, and as his niece, I will naturally not stand idly by." So, Zhao the matchmaker, you should be brave and introduce a partner to Uncle Wang!
