Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Man Bao went to Master Bai's house next door in confusion.

The servants of Master Bai's family were also very familiar with Man Bao, and when they heard that she was here to find Young Master Tang, they put them in.

Man Bao ran to the front hall, and before she got to the place, she heard voices inside. She didn't rush forward, but lay by the door and looked in.

Bai Shanbao saw her at a glance, there was nothing he could do, he stood behind his grandmother, while his grandmother and Aunt Bai sat on top, facing the door.

There was a familiar round head sticking out from the door, and it was hard for him not to pay attention.

Bai Shanbao winked at her and told her to wait, and he went to find her later.

Man Bao also winked at him in reply.

The guests who came were three handsomely dressed men. They were talking to the old lady Bai, with their backs to Man Bao, but it was very strange. One of them seemed to have noticed something and turned his head.

There was nothing by the door.

Man Bao squatted behind the door, held down the kitten that ran over and bumped into her, and hugged her happily.

The little girl who was chasing did not dare to step forward, and waved at her again and again.

Man Bao ran over with the cat in his arms, "Miss, is this cat yours?"

"This is the old lady's. I was about to give it a bath, but it didn't like bathing and ran away. Miss Zhou, can you give it to me?"

"Oh, okay." Man Bao reluctantly gave her the cat, and when the little girl saw that she really liked it, she smiled and said, "Little lady can touch it again."

Looking back at the person at the door, he retracted his gaze. What he didn't know was that Liu Shi, who was sitting at the top and talking with a smile, also retracted his gaze.

Bai Shanbao didn't want to stand here and listen to the adults, mainly because the things they were talking about were boring, so he took a careful look at his grandmother, saw that she was not paying attention, and slipped out quietly.

Liu Shi saw it, but said nothing.

The guests sitting at the bottom seemed to know that Bai Shanbao only went out because he was bored, so he didn't say anything.

Bai Shanbao slipped out the door, saw Man Bao playing with the cat, and ran up immediately, "Why are you here?"

Man Bao said: "Sir said that your grandmother was ill, so you didn't go to school because of the illness. As a result, you lied to us. Grandma Liu is obviously fine."

Bai Shanbao said, "Grandma herself said she was ill, but my uncle sent someone to look for her, saying that there was a guest at home who wanted to see us, and grandma will be fine again."

He looked left and right, whispered in Man Bao's ear, "I think my grandmother wanted to be lazy, so I pretended to be sick."

"Then why are you asking for leave?"

Bai Shanbao scratched his head, "To be real?"

He said: "For example, if I pretend to be sick, I will put a hot towel on my forehead first, so that my mother feels that I have a fever when I touch it."

"..."

Man Bao shoved the note to him and said, "Here, this is the note from the morning. The master said that you should not only copy all the notes, but also don't leave the homework behind. You said, does the master know that Grandma Liu is pretending to be sick, so on purpose?"

Bai Shanbao: "..."

"Do you want to go back to class this afternoon?"

Bai Shanbao thought for a while, shook his head, glanced at the front hall and said, "I don't know what's wrong, my grandmother seems to be very interested in the guests coming this time. I may accompany my grandmother to the village chief's house in a while."

"Who are these guests?"

"It is said that the imperial court sent statistics on the disaster situation. If the disaster is severe, the imperial court will provide an additional subsidy. It seems to say that everyone has it, and the subsidy is paid according to the household registration."

With a wow, Man Bao said, "Really, there are twenty-one people in my family."

Bai Shanbao also came back to his senses, "Yes, then your family can get a lot of subsidies."

Man Bao was about to move, "I'll go with you to find the village chief, it's better to have a look."

Bai Shanbao responded, holding her hand to go back to the front hall, but before they went in, the people in the hall came out first.

Liu Shi took them out and said with a smile: "My old sister is not feeling well. Since it was sent by the imperial court, then I will take you to find the village chief."

The leader's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled: "Then thank the old lady."

It was the moment of endless rest, Man Bao was full of energy and wanted to go with him.

Bai Shanbao dragged her and ran into the hall to get a few snacks, and then ran after her grandmother and the others.

The two children had snacks in both hands, and whispered behind them while nibbling, "Mr. afternoon is going to tell us a story, are you really not going to school?"

Bai Shanbao hesitated for a moment, "I think about it, I have to ask my grandmother."

Man Bao nodded.

The group rushed to the village chief's house. The three said that they were from the imperial court and needed to make statistics on the disaster. However, Qili Village was reported to be severely affected. After checking, they would report it, and the imperial court would provide subsidies based on human hair. That is, everyone on the household registration can receive the subsidy.

Such a subsidy method was unheard of by the village chief, but seeing the other party in fancy clothes and a saber, he did not seem like a liar.

And people didn't ask him for money, did they?

So the village chief asked excitedly: "Do you really want to compensate according to the household registration?"

"good."

"Daughter-in-law and underage dolls also make up?"

The other party seemed a little impatient, but nodded, "Yes, so you lead us to every house, we have to check."

The village chief immediately laughed and said happily: "That's easy, let's start with my family statistics. By the way, do you want to see people?"

The other party pondered for a while and said: "If you are at home, of course you have to see people. Even if it is written on the household registration, what if there are mistakes?"

"Oh my lord, I don't dare to say that. The people in our village are very honest, and we have to pay taxes for over-reporting the population. Why do we over-report?"

"So there is an underreporting?"

"No, no, that's not it," the village chief thought they were fools, but explained with a smile on his face: "This child can be divided into small fields after he becomes a small child, who will underpay."

Regardless of overreporting and underreporting, it is impossible for them here.

But because the three of them wanted to see people, the village chief called the eldest son and said, "Go, tell Mr. Zhuang, and ask the children in the village to take a half-day leave, and let the second child go and call back all the people in the field. They can’t be less, and they will be counted in a while, which can be related to subsidies.”

The two sons responded and ran out.

Bai Shanbao and Manbao looked at each other, and they didn't have to think about going back to class, but they still ran into the classroom holding hands.

Dazhu's nephew went to ask them for leave. The teacher must gather the students and announce that Man Bao could not be absent.

When Mr. Zhuang called all the nearby children back into the school, he found someone sitting next to Man Bao. He was slightly surprised, "Bai Shan, isn't your grandmother sick?"
