Chapter 41 of "After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband" unveils a new twist: Chapter 41: Chapter 41 HelpingIn front of Tianxiang Building. The government officials resignedly wiped the door... See what happens!

Chapter 41: Chapter 41 HelpingIn front of Tianxiang Building. The government officials resignedly wiped the door and the walls. The smell of rotten eggs made their eyes roll back. Su Jin and Xie Jingchen sat in the tea shed diagonally across from Tianxiang Building, drinking tea. Xingxing was pouring tea. Don’t ask where the tea shed boss is, he’s already fled in fear. When Su Jin arrived, the tea shed boss ran away in a flash. Not just the tea shed, he even abandoned his wife. Su Jin tossed his wife a silver tael, the tea shed boss’s wife thanked her, then took a club and chased him out. By now, the tea shed boss might already be half-dead from the beating. So now, Su Jin and Xie Jingchen were watching the officials wiping away the rotten eggs while minding the tea shed. Not everyone knows that Su Jin is a bandit from Feihu Village in Qingyun Mountain. The fearless ones, feeling thirsty, sit down and call out, "A bowl of tea, please." Xingxing goes over to pour tea for them. They sat for half an hour. The officials were exhausted and finally finished cleaning. From afar, it looked clean and shiny. Passersby couldn’t help but take a second look, after all, seeing officials help clean rotten eggs was a first. And then— Su Jin, who had asserted her dominance at the Duke Mansion, did it again on the bustling street. Even officials could be ordered around like servants. The Eldest Young Madam of Duke Zhen’s Mansion must be really domineering. The officials came over and said, "Young Master Xie, Eldest Young Madam, there’s no more rotten egg smell." Su Jin and Xie Jingchen rose. They arrived at Tianxiang Building. Xingxing sniffed hard and said, "There’s a faint fragrance." Su Jin, "..." Xie Jingchen, "..." The official laughed and said, "Nose so sharp, we just put a bit of fragrant powder on the door." "So extravagant, I don’t even use Rouge," Xingxing exclaimed. "..." It’s not extravagance, just that an official who bought Rouge for his wife dropped it and it shattered. To avoid waste, he sprinkled it on the walls to cover the last bit of rotten egg smell. After a while, the smell would dissipate. Seeing Xingxing say this, the official complimented, "Miss is naturally beautiful, no need for Rouge." "You’re so sweet," Xingxing said. Su Jin asked Xingxing to reward the officials. Xingxing slipped them ten silver taels, and the grateful officials thanked her profusely. But they were happy too soon— Xingxing poured a basin of water over them. "You cleaned the door so well, if anyone throws rotten eggs again, they’ll find you to clean it." "..." The silver was indeed burning hot. Inside the tavern, it looked the same as when they left yesterday, even the dishes on the tables were untouched, which was quite a headache. Xingxing turned back and saw the officials ready to slip away, she said, "Can you help tidy up the tables?" The officials, "..." Tianxiang Building was hit with rotten eggs; it could be said their work was ineffective, but tidying up tables wasn’t related, right? They grumbled silently but none dared to complain aloud. This maid had whipped the heir of Marquis Jingguo right in the street... Even to whip the heir mercilessly, wouldn’t she whip them into minced cabbage? Shivering, the officials helped clean the tables. Su Jin took a look downstairs, then went upstairs and then to the backyard. The kitchen still had plenty of dishes, which Su Jin didn’t want. The only useful thing was the cellar. There were at least hundreds of jars of wine inside, filling the air with aroma. Xingxing looked at Su Jin and said, "Miss, don’t you want the wine? If not, we can move it to the Marquis Mansion, both the Marquis and Young Master enjoy drinking." "Sure." "I’ll call the officials to move them." "..." This maid sure knows how to orchestrate the officials. The scary part is the officials didn’t resist, one call and they’d comply. They worked harder than the Duke Zhen Mansion’s servants. The Hidden Guard, "..." A few hundred wine jars were loaded onto carts and grandly sent to Marquis Dongxiang Mansion. The carts rolled along, exuding a rich wine aroma. The servants swallowed hard. These officials were truly bold; wasn’t this tempting them to rob in broad daylight? They resisted the urge to act rashly. And then— The carts stopped. The servants exchanged glances. Was this someone trying to curry favor and bribe their Marquis? It was quite ostentatious, suited their Marquis’ tastes. The servants went to report to Marquis Dongxiang. Marquis Dongxiang came out smiling and said, "In all my time in the capital, it’s my first time being bribed, who’s so perceptive?" The officials, "..." Stunned for a moment, the officials said, "These wines were sent by the Eldest Young Madam of Duke Zhen’s Mansion. They’re rare collections from Tianxiang Building, which she no longer needs for her charcoal business." Marquis Dongxiang laughed heartily, "She’s indeed my daughter, so considerate." "The Marquis was just complaining about the empty cellar, and the young lady sent so much wine, the cellar might not fit it all," the steward laughed. "Move it to the cellar first. Tonight we’ll have a good drink," Marquis Dongxiang said. The servants moved the wine, the officials were pitiful, almost losing half their lives. The servants were thrilled and excited, patting the officials’ shoulders, muscular and strong, the officials’ shoulders almost got dislocated. Today was the most exhausting day in their careers as officials. Not just physically, but mentally too. After delivering the wine, they had to return to Tianxiang Building as laborers. Hopefully, it was just for today. But the leftover dishes, meats, tables, chairs inside the tavern, Su Jin wanted none of them. The Duke Zhen Mansion certainly wouldn’t want them either. Disposing of them required effort, and they didn’t know where to throw them. As long as the officials needed them, they could take whatever they could carry. The officials were delighted— They called over other officials. Searching here, scraping there, moving this, lifting that, each of them earned at least dozens of silver taels. Su Jin wandered around the backyard and said, "The backyard is a bit small. If we don’t buy the adjacent inn, we’ll have to incorporate part of the backyard of the bookroom, also take down this and that wall, and the kitchen is too big, it’ll need to be demolished too..." As she walked along. The most frequent word Xie Jingchen heard was ’demolish.’ Not just the backyard. Also on the upper floor. If he remembered correctly, only two walls would remain after demolishing. After another round, perhaps even those two walls wouldn’t be safe. Seeing Su Jin wanting to demolish more. He rubbed his forehead and said, "Demolished to this extent, I think you should just rebuild it completely." Su Jin turned to look at him, her face lit up with a smile. "You also think demolishing and rebuilding is better?" "..." "I was just thinking of tearing it all down upstairs but couldn’t decide, since you also think so, let’s demolish everything." "..." Xie Jingchen felt helpless. He wasn’t agreeing. He was just prodding her, seeing the mess. "Aren’t you going to reconsider?" Xie Jingchen said. It’s just charcoal selling, no need for such elaborate measures. Su Jin thought for a moment and said, "Well, then I’ll think it over tonight." "Right, let’s go check the bookroom’s backyard." "..." Xie Jingchen felt a headache. Seeing Su Jin’s excitement. He figured the bookroom might lose its backyard.
