Recap "The Lady in Butcher’s House" Episode 19

That night, two uninvited guests came to the Xu family, one was the man in black who was going to meet Hu Jiao and others many times, and the other was A Wu who was ordered to take Xiaobei away. And it was these two people who collided head-on for the first time, and the fight was inseparable. Hu Jiao vaguely sensed something was wrong, so he went out to check the situation, and Gao Zheng also came over at this time.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ah Wu had to run away first, but was subdued by Gao Zheng, and the man in black hurriedly left Xiao Bei. He originally wanted to set fire to the school, but Hu Jiao rushed up and kicked him over. The man in black subconsciously reached out his hand to reach the fire, which made him scream. Gao Zheng and Hu Jiao cooperated properly and quickly knocked down the man in black.

After Cui Wulang received the news, he ordered A Wu to be brought back to the barracks. As for the man in black, he looked silly, and it was very likely that Gao Zheng was too heavy. Under the care of Hu Jiao, Xiao Bei finally regained consciousness. After waking up, he hugged Prince Ning and didn't let go. This made Prince Ning feel very uncomfortable and decided to take the child back to his side.

When he was about to leave, Prince Ning asked Xu Qingjia to work hard when he went to Xiangzhou to take office, and promised that Prince Ning's mansion would be his strongest backing no matter the good or the bad. With the words of Prince Ning, Xu Qingjia felt a lot more at ease. After seeing Prince Ning away, he took Hu Jiao to bid farewell to Gao Zheng and Yuniang and set off for Xiangzhou.

After a few days of travel, they soon reached the border of Xiangzhou. When Xu Qingjia and others were resting on the roadside, they suddenly found a man walking into the river crying, suspected of wanting to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river. Because of the previous experience, Xu Qingjia patiently asked about the situation before knowing that the other party's name was Hua Tuo, and he was the one who collected medicines for a living in Xiangzhou Prefecture and collected several bags of medicinal materials for several months. He fell into the river halfway, causing all the medicinal materials to soak in water.

Hu Jiao couldn't bear what happened to Hua Tuo, so she simply spent money to buy all the medicinal materials. Hua Tuo was grateful for this and returned some silver taels to Hu Jiao. When Hua Tuo left, Hu Jiao and Yongshou both felt that the price of this batch of medicinal herbs was too fair. According to the market price, it was definitely not such a small amount of money, but there was nothing strange about it.

Arriving in the city of Xiangzhou, Liu Lushi arranged a first-class house for Xu Qingjia, which looked extremely lavish. Xu Qingjia decided that the prefect of Xiangzhou Hannan would hold a grand banquet for him, but no one came to pass the news in the middle of the night. It was true that Xu Qingjia could not come down to the stage, so he had to run to the kitchen to cook for his wife.

Han Nansheng's move was to give Xu Qingjia a slap in the face and destroy the prestige of his new office, and Xu Qingjia came to meet him without being humble or arrogant. He could clearly feel that Han Nansheng and Duan Gongcao were cooperating with each other, deliberately concealing the situation in Xiangzhou, and did not want to Arrange him to take over the current official business.

Duan Gongcao said that there is still a person in the government office who has passed the sentence, and he can return to Xiangzhou about this afternoon, when the two will hand over official duties, and how to allocate them can be discussed again. Xu Qingjia took Yongshou to Xiangzhou for a stroll, and found that the local folk customs were more sturdy than Shangyong. It happened that at this time, someone came to inform Xu Qingjia to go to Xiaoxiangzhi Hall for a gathering.

On the other side, Hu Jiao stayed at home doing nothing, so she wanted to find a business to do it, and suddenly noticed the medicinal materials in her hand, so she first took Lamei to the nearby medicinal materials shop to cover the news, unexpectedly Xiangzhou medicinal materials are not lacking and expensive. Because of this, Hu Jiao decided to open a medicinal herb shop while she had medicinal materials in her hand. As long as the price was fair, she could grab the business of those black-hearted shops.

Hu Houfu and Lin Cui received Hu Jiao's letter and rushed to Xiangzhou non-stop. After learning about Hu Jiao's thoughts, Hu Houfu planned to run for her to the countryside. On the other hand, when Xu Qingjia came to Xiaoxiangzhi Hall to make an appointment, he did not expect that what Duan Gongcao said was actually a classmate Yu Ze, and Tang Ze had come to Xiangzhou as early as half a year ago.

When the two returned to the government office to hand over official business, Xu Qingjia suggested that when checking the household registration, he checked the property and land tax incidentally, so as not to have to make another trip in the future. Hearing these words, Yu Ze looked a little unnatural, so he found an excuse to prevaricate and persuade Xu Qingjia not to rush into the matter.

After lunch, Hu Houfu and Yongshou went to a nearby village to inquire about the price of the medicinal materials. They did not expect the medicinal materials to be so cheap, so they decided to bring the money tomorrow to cover the medicinal materials. In the evening, Xu Qingjia personally entertained Hu Houfu and Lin Cui, and Hu Houfu also had full confidence. Everyone wished the herbal medicine shop a prosperous business in advance.
