I have become immortal, Taoist friends still need to be diligent

"Ah, Goudan, ah, no, Tiedan, what you said seems to be like this. Every summer, I can see a few wheat plants that are about to mature in the cornfield, but they did not grow well because they were blocked by the corn, so I put them away. When the weeds are pulled.”

As soon as the village chief heard Li Mu's words, he remembered the past as soon as he recalled it.

"Brother, is it true?"

At this time, Li Youliang grabbed his trembling right hand with his trembling left hand and stared directly at the village chief, trying to get some affirmative answer.

"It's true, it's true."

The village chief held Li Youliang's trembling hands and immediately answered in the affirmative.

"Let's go, now I will write a letter to my senior brother and send it to him immediately. No, I will go in person."

"Let him talk to the county magistrate. If this matter comes to pass, the county magistrate will have to thank your iron egg."

The village chief suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly called Li Youliang to his home. After all, he, a scholar in growing grain, was still not as good as Li Youliang, a farmer.

If you want to impress the county magistrate, you have to write down the matter in detail, so that Li Mu's conjecture can be better recognized by the county magistrate.

"Okay, okay, I'll go with you."

Li Youliang also understood what the village chief meant, and immediately drove Li Mu to the village chief's home.

More than an hour later, the village chief finally finished writing the letter. After pretending, he quickly drank a sip of water to moisten his throat.

After all, Li Youliang had been discussing it for a long time and didn't even have time to take a sip of water.

"Dad, I'm back."

At this moment, the village chief's son also came back from the town.

"Well, let's have dinner first. We'll eat at our house. After that, you can follow me to the county."

The village chief ordered when he saw his son and several young adults from the village coming back.

"Ah, Dad, I haven't said what I've learned yet. Why are you going to the county seat?"

Wang Wenhua, the village chief's son, is a little confused about the village chief's behavior. Shouldn't he first ask him about the news he went to the town to find out?

"Oh, tell me."

Only then did the village chief remember what he had arranged before.

"Dad, it's like this. This year, the county magistrate is going to each county to understand the disaster situation. Our newly appointed county magistrate in Qingping County thought it was an opportunity to show off, and ordered that there should be no beggars in the county."

"Ha, I knew it. No matter what, you go arrange for your mother and your wife to cook, and we will go to the county seat later."

After hearing what his son said, the village chief was not surprised. Then he waved his hand and arranged the following things.

From the village chief's point of view, it doesn't matter what his reasons are now. As long as this matter is done well, other things will not matter.

"Okay. I'll arrange for them to eat right away."

Wang Wenhua didn't think too much, so he went to arrange meals without asking the village chief why he wanted to go to the county seat.

"Brother, Tiedan and I will go back first."

Seeing that nothing happened to him, Li Youliang was ready to go home and praise his precious grandson to Zhang Caiyun.

"Hmm, Wenhua, give Tiedan ten steamed buns."

"Good."

"Ah, brother, you can't do this."

As soon as Li Youliang saw the village chief holding the steamed buns, he immediately declined.

"It's okay. I think your grandson is smart and I like him too. Just a few steamed buns are not worth much."

The village chief pressed Li Youliang's hand and said with a smile.

"Then...Okay, Tiedan, please thank your village chief grandpa."

"Thank you, Grandpa Village Chief."

What could Li Mu do? He looked at the calligraphy written by the village chief for more than an hour. Before his thoughts came out of the words in this world, he was forced to say words of thanks.

But Li Mu didn't care. It happened that he hadn't eaten steamed buns for a long time, and he couldn't stand steamed buns every day. So the words of thanks to the village chief were sincere.

……

"Honey, let me tell you, I feel that Tiedan will definitely have a future when he grows up. He is worthy of being a member of my Li family."

"That's right, my precious grandson must be smart. Unlike you, it took him five years of reading to recognize all the characters and he can't even write an article. If you can write articles, you can come back and be a scholar for us and earn a second degree." Ten acres of tax-free land came out.”

"Hey, I was still young at that time, I was just ignorant."

……

"Dad, Mom, it's time to eat."

Seeing her father-in-law and mother-in-law praising Li Mu, Wang Lanhua was also very happy. He said with a smile while holding the ten steamed buns and a plate of wild vegetables that his father-in-law brought back today.

"Okay, Lan Hua, go and call Tiedan. Let's have some white steamed buns from the village chief's house today. We haven't had them in a long time."

"Uh-huh."

Wang Lanhua went to find Li Mu after hearing the news.

Speaking of which, although Li Mu's family was poor, they were very harmonious. Li Mu's grandparents had always raised Wang Lanhua as their own daughter, so Li Mu could live in peace and contentment for five years as a child.

"Tiedan, it's time to eat."

"I know, mother, come right now."

Li Mu, who was thinking wildly on the eaves, heard Wang Lanhua calling him and responded quickly.

Li Mu's family usually cooks meals together at his grandparents' house, and he basically doesn't use his own earthen stove.

After all, there weren't many people there, so the house on Li Mu's grandparents' side was bigger. Although it was also an adobe house, it had at least three rooms connected together.

To the west is the granary, which is about 20 square meters. In the middle is the room of Li Mu's grandparents, which is about 30 square meters. To the east is the kitchen with an earthen kang.

We ate on the wooden table in Li Mu’s grandparents’ room. The table was a little old, but it wasn’t lame. Although it is not big, it is enough for a family of five to have a meal together.

……

"Senior brother, what do you think of this matter?"

After two hours of rickety riding in a bullock cart, the village chief finally arrived at the county seat and met his senior brother, a seventy-year-old man with completely white hair.

This old man is not a simple man. I heard that he had been an official of the fifth rank. He retired and returned to his hometown two years ago. He returned to Qingping County to take care of his old age.

The reason why the village chief called him senior brother was because they had both studied under a scholar in Qingping County. The village chief was confident that his letter would reach the county magistrate and be taken seriously.

"Well, it is indeed feasible. Your letter may really attract the attention of the court officials. I will go find the county magistrate now."

……

"Sir, Mr. Yang is here and said he wanted to see you. He is waiting for you in the living room now."

"Oh, Mr. Yang is here? Please come, Mr. Yang is a rare visitor."

The county magistrate who was working in the county government office was a strong man in his thirties. When he heard the announcement from his subordinates, he immediately put down his writing and hurried to the living room.

"Mr. Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder what you can do for me? I have admired Mr. Yang for a long time."

The county magistrate looked at Mr. Yang who was sitting on a chair and sipping tea, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the people who went to the morning court were indeed different. His calmness alone was not comparable to that of the newly appointed seventh-grade county magistrate.

"I have a letter here. I would like to ask Mr. Zhao to read it first. You will naturally know the purpose of my visit."

Mr. Yang didn't explain much. He just smiled and asked his entourage to take out the letter and hand it to the county magistrate. He stopped talking and continued to drink tea.

"Okay, Mr. Yang, please wait a moment until I finish reading this letter."

When the county magistrate saw that Mr. Yang said nothing else, he understood that there was probably something really important in the letter, so he quickly took the letter and sat down to read it.
