Chapter 628: Chapter 615: Grievance
Zhuang Qingning herself wouldn’t have been unable to go, but chose to send him instead. This was obviously meant to give him an opportunity to show his face to the county master.
For him, as the village chief and his son working in the County Government Office, it was indeed a rare opportunity.
You have to say, Zhuang Qingning really is thorough about looking out for others in all matters.
A real nice guy in every sense!
Zhuang Jingye secretly gave Zhuang Qingning a thumbs up in his heart.
Zhuang Jingye chatted for a while, and then happily left with the drawings of the water gun.
After Zhuang Qingning sent off Zhuang Jingye and played with the water gun in her hand for a while, she began to make the next water gun.
Once the second water gun was made, Zhuang Qingning bundled up the gun and the blueprints tightly and went to Qingzhuyuan to find Fan Wenxuan and Chu Jinzhou, asking Fan Wenxuan to quickly dispatch these items to Chu Jinnian in the capital city.
Since the time she was awarded the title of County Master for creating the waterwheel, Zhuang Qingning, after much reflection, realized one thing.
Only achievement can guarantee status and honor.
However, in these peaceful times, there were no military merits to be had, the only merits that could be earned were those related to the welfare of the people.
If the waterwheel could be a merit, then the water gun could surely be one too.
If Chu Jinnian proposed to mass-produce water guns in the capital city and prepare the Submarine Fire Army, it would be a great merit in ensuring the stability of the entire capital city.
In the perilous capital city, having this kind of merit would provide an extra layer of protection for Chu Jinnian against his enemy, reducing the danger he faced.
However, Zhuang Qingning only mentioned these in the letter that she included with the water gun, and did not discuss them in detail with Fan Wenxuan, to prevent any eavesdropping or other unexpected incidents.
She only reminded Fan Wenxuan that this matter was of great importance and he must arrange for someone to deliver it to Chu Jinnian as soon as possible.
Fan Wenxuan did not know Zhuang Qingning’s plan, but since she rarely asked him for help, and was very serious this time, he immediately turned serious and said, “Rest assured Miss Zhuang, I will send someone straight to the capital city and put it in the hands of the First Young Master.”
“Thank you, Mr. Fan.” Zhuang Qingning thanked him and took out the snack box she brought for Fan Wenxuan, “This is a new taro cake I made specifically for you and Jinzhou, give it a try and see how it tastes?”
“If it’s made by Miss Zhuang, it must be delicious.” Fan Wenxuan eagerly took the snack box from Zhuang Qingning, his excited eyes getting misty.
It’s not his fault for not being able to control his emotions. Since Chu Jinnian began to hang around Zhuang Qingning, all the food sent by Zhuang Qingning was intercepted by Chu Jinnian, which made him long for the food, but he never got the chance.
Besides this Chu Jinnian, Zhuang Qingning has become increasingly selfish. She used to care about him and Jinzhou, but since she confirmed her engagement to Jinzhou, she didn’t think about them anymore, and all the food was prepared for Chu Jinnian…
Did she think that they were full of dog food in their daily life, so they didn’t need to eat anymore?
Fan Wenxuan has been depressed about this, but now seeing Zhuang Qingning specially prepared food for him and Jinzhou, the previous gloom was instantly swept away, and he felt the sunshine was pleasant and brilliant.
Zhuang Qingning only stayed in Qingzhuyuan for a short while before leaving, Fan Wenxuan and Chu Jinzhou sent her out, then arranged for Ning Feng to deliver the things Zhuang Qingning brought to the capital city before retreating to the study. The two of them started to share a box full of taro cakes, planning to keep Zhuang Mingli’s share for him to eat the next day when he came.
The taro cakes, true to their name, were incredibly crispy and fragrant, delicious beyond measure.
