As Xiao Hanzheng lowered his head, he saw her clear eyes looking at him curiously.

His heart beat even faster.

Although answering would expose his secret, he still nodded and said, "Yes, Mo Qingling 's achievements in the future will not be too bad."

When he died, Mo Qingling had already established a firm foothold in the Ministry of War.

If nothing unexpected happened, Mo Qingling would take over after the current Minister of War resigned.

Shi Qingluo's eyes lit up. "Then we can find an opportunity to build a relationship with him in advance."

The instruction manual for refining iron and steel was in her hands.

After Mo Qingling mined the iron ore, she would find an opportunity to pass him the instruction manual to build a relationship with him.

In the future, they would also have someone in the capital to rely on.

Xiao Hanzheng read his little wife's plan. He smiled lightly and said, "Alright!"

In this life, his immediate family members were still alive.

Now that he also had a little wife, he decided to take a different path.

Revenge was no longer his only goal in life.

He wanted to lead a better life with his mother, wife and younger siblings.

At the same time, he wanted to make up for some of the regrets he had in his previous life.

Let's see if befriending Mo Qingling would translate into a friendship this time.

Shi Qingluo realised that her young husband was really very good.

Not only did he understand what she meant, but they were also very compatible with each other.

He wasn't a machismo and was very accommodating towards her.

She might not even meet such a man in modern times.

She asked, "Did the ex-magistrate have a deep relationship with the Wu Family? I heard from the servant of the Bai family that the Bai family is very happy with our new county magistrate."

Xiao Hanzheng replied, "Their relationship is very deep. That county magistrate is greedy, incompetent, and very timid. The Bai family is afraid of the magistrate backing the Wu family. Hence, he was previously able to make the majority of the decisions in Nanxi County.

"Even if the Bai family has a fourth-rank official to rely on, they still have to avoid him."

Shi Qingluo nodded. "No wonder the Wu family hasn't come to stir trouble recently. It seems like they are too busy with the sudden change of magistrate."

Xiao Hanzheng wasn't surprised that the Wu family would want to provoke his little wife.

Not only did his little wife not marry in, but she also stopped his younger sister from the marriage.

The Wu family was narrow-minded and insolent.

They would definitely want to settle the matter next time.

"When they are free, they will definitely come and make a nuisance."

In his previous life, the Wu family was backed by that magistrate.

At first, he could not do anything to them.

Later on, he rose through the ranks and managed to destroy him with some evidence.
