Master Wu stroked his beard and said, "I brought this issue to the county magistrate's attention some time ago, it seems he hasn't done anything about it."

Master Wu shook his head, expressing a silent sigh in his heart.
It's not bragging, but how many officials in this dynasty are as committed to serving the people like his son?

Jiang Sanlang linked this situation to the dream his daughter had and was deeply worried.
He felt the urgent need to return to his hometown now.
