"Congratulations to maintainer No. 9 for achieving an A-level overall score in this mission."

As soon as Nai opened her eyes, she heard these familiar words. She sighed and calmly prepared to open the work cabin and go out to chat with her colleagues.

But as soon as her hand touched the button to open the cabin, a new prompt sounded from the mission assistant, "Maintainer No. 9, please enter the work cabin. A new mission is about to begin."

"Hey, wait, let me go out for a breather, okay?"

The rickshaw pulled a young girl wearing a cheongsam and stopped in front of the Commander's Mansion in Pingcheng. The housekeeper who had been waiting in front of the Commander's Mansion early in the morning saw the girl and hurriedly greeted her.

"Miss, you're here." The housekeeper paid the fare, helped the girl get out of the rickshaw, and then picked up the two small suitcases the girl brought with her.

"Thank you." The girl thanked the housekeeper. The housekeeper quickly shook his head and said, "You're welcome, Miss. This is what I should do."

This girl is Lin Jiu, and the Commander's Mansion in front of her is where she will live. Lin Jiu smiled implicitly at the housekeeper, "Uncle Zhao, is brother here?"

"Here, there, the young master knows that you are coming back today, so he has specially postponed his official duties and is waiting for you at home."

Lin Jiu's smile seemed a little more sincere, "Then let's go in."

Uncle Zhao responded, half a step behind Lin Jiu and walked into the magnificent new Western-style building.

The most talked-about news in Pingcheng in the past half month is that the forty-seventh commander of Pingcheng married a thirty-five-year-old widow, and the widow also had a sixteen-year-old daughter.

Speaking of the commander of Pingcheng, he can be regarded as a legendary figure. In this era when gunfire is everywhere and there is no peace for a day, Pingcheng can still be regarded as a rare piece of pure land in the war.

What's even more rare is that the taxes in Pingcheng will only be collected this year. People in Pingcheng occasionally hear from people who have fled from other places that the taxes in some places have been collected fifty years later.

Let’s talk about the commander’s private life, which is even more unique. Not to mention marrying several concubines, the commander has been single since his first wife passed away due to illness ten years ago, and he quietly announced it half a month ago. Got the wedding news.

Someone familiar with the matter said that the commander's newly married wife was indeed a beauty. Although she was already in her thirties, she still looked like a girl in her early twenties.

It is said that the lovely wife was originally the wife of a wealthy businessman. A year ago, the wealthy businessman was involved in a warlord dispute and died in vain for no apparent reason. All his family property was also swallowed up. It was also at that time that the commander was asked to perform A hero rescued the beauty, and finally captured the heart of the beautiful girl.

As for the commander's cheap stepdaughter, firstly, her beauty is not inferior to her mother, and secondly, her biological father has pampered the girl since she was a child. She goes to school and learns foreign languages, and everything she eats, uses, and wears is made of gold.

The people in Pingcheng discussed it happily for less than half a month, and the commander took his newlywed wife south on a business trip.

So after Lin Jiu sent her mother and stepfather away, she moved out of the small western-style building where she had lived for only half a year, packed her luggage and headed to her new home, Pingcheng Commandery.
