When they were talking, Ding Tian stood aside and watched, showing no sign of shyness, not only he was watching here, but also Old Zheng Shu.

Uncle Zheng was a little embarrassed.

Well, he planned to talk to Ding Tian about this matter. Ding Tian once said that if you don’t want to eat or drink cards easily, the imperial court’s salary will not be enough to support you?

But the people below are used to it, and suddenly they are not allowed to take it, and some people feel it is a pity.

What's more, there is another point, everyone always thinks, if you don't give some benefits, if you don't stuff some money, the family members will suffer in it.

In order to seek peace of mind, they will try every means to give the jailer money...

In this case, it's really hard to say no.

What's more, the money is not embezzled by one person. It used to be shared equally by everyone, but now it is used to buy something. The money is not divided, but things are divided.

But it's all small things, such as buying some peanuts and melon seeds, and everyone eats them.

Or buy some ingredients, enough to add an extra dish to everyone's table.

They are really not corrupt, but... According to Ding Siyu, this money is gray income, and it is not justifiable...〇

Ding Tian didn't care about this, he just stood there and checked the time. According to the regulations, the visiting time is a stick of incense, which is 15 minutes, and the longest is half an hour, which is an hour.

However, it usually takes 15 minutes. If it takes half an hour, it is probably a death row prisoner. If you see him off, it is a farewell. If you meet again, it will probably be a corpse.

With Ding Tian here, Zhao Laosi didn't talk much, and the four brothers didn't dare to say too explicit things, so Zhao Laosi had no choice but to tell Zhao Laosi: "I heard that there is going to be an arraignment, honestly, what should you say? We were all drunk at the time, what can a drunk person know?"

Zhao Laosi moved his shoulders: "Yes."

"Fourth brother, you have to hold on!" Zhao Laowu felt sorry for his fourth brother: "We are waiting for you to come out!"

Zhao Laoer was a little impatient: "Think about it, this matter... oh...!"

Zhao Laosan handed everything to Zhao Laosi sullenly: "The weather is hot, and you don't know how you are doing here. These are mats and pillows, and I made them up. You can deal with them and use them. There are wormwood whips, light one every night, and it can smoke mosquitoes."

Ding Tian's eyes lit up when he saw the wormwood whip.

This wormwood whip is a long strip made of wormwood. Like a whip, when one end is lit, smoke will come out. It is especially useful for smoking mosquitoes. It is a folk way of smoking mosquitoes.

If you make some of this now and sell it... even if it is sold to the post station, it can be regarded as income....

After 15 minutes, Ding Tian asked them to leave without hesitation: "There are rules in the prison. If you don't follow the rules, don't come in next time."

The four brothers left without bowing their heads, but they were in a depressed mood. They didn't say a few words to the fourth brother, and some things were inconvenient to say in front of outsiders.

After walking out of the yamen, after two streets, Zhao Laosan pulled his hair irritably: "What should I do, brother? Young Master Ma is still waiting for a reply!"

"What can we do? I heard that there will be a trial. If the fourth child tells the truth in class, then our family will be ashamed." Boss Zhao was also annoyed: "I said at the time, this is impossible, you must Do not believe……."

"At that time, Young Master Ma agreed, and each person would give 20 taels of silver. That's 20 taels of silver!" Zhao Lao Er curled his lips: "What's so good about that woman? A girl from an extinct family..."

20 taels of silver, in the eyes of small peasant households, is enough to marry a house of wives.

The eldest son of Zhao's second family is about to turn seventeen, and now he is thinking all day about how to find a suitable wife for his eldest son...

"No matter how bad it is, she is an honest daughter-in-law." Boss Zhao gave him a white look: "Yes, her parents are gone, but Zhangjiacun is still there, and the Zhang family is also there. She has six uncles, eight What about the grandpa of my ancestors, it’s really making trouble, do you think Zhaojiacun can support Zhangjiacun? There are also two scholars in that village!"

"At the beginning, I said no, you insist...what should I do?" Zhao Laowu was more depressed than his brothers: "At that time, it was really... Oh, I shouldn't let the girl marry me."

"Shouldn't it? If it shouldn't be, now our old Zhao family can have such a good family as the Ma family? Even if it is the third wife of the Ma family, it is also a member of the Ma family." Boss Zhao was cruel: "The fourth brother must let go. "

"What if he doesn't let go?" Zhao Laoer asked: "He may seem the most honest, but he is also the most stubborn. If he becomes stubborn, he won't be able to pull back eight cows."

"If you don't let go, you have to let go. The money has been collected, and there is no way to get it back!" Zhao Laosan said fiercely: "It's just a woman."

"Women are like clothes, brothers are like siblings." Zhao Laowu was more ruthless than his brothers: "Does he want to break his siblings, or does he want to throw away a piece of clothing and get a new one?"

"What are you talking about?" Boss Zhao yelled angrily: "That's your brother! No matter how bad that woman is, she gave birth to three boys in my old Zhao family. After being with the fourth child for almost ten years, all of them What nonsense? If the fourth child is not willing...the money will be refunded, and as for how the case will be tried and the Lord Fu Zun will judge...we just listen."

The other three fell silent.

They walked all the way in silence, and started a new round of discussion when they returned home, but what they didn't notice was the two people following behind them.

One is the golden armor, he changed into an ordinary farmer's attire.

The other one is Ma Xiaofeng. This kid also changed into a short farm boy's short clothes, and his clothes are still very old. He was thrown in the crowd, and he couldn't be recognized without raising his hand.

When they arrived at Zhaojia Village, Jin Jia said that he was here to collect herbs. He passed by Zhaojia Village and came in to find some water to drink. He and Ma Xiaofeng both brought dry food.

It is steamed green vegetable dumpling, and the vegetable stuffing inside is mixed with oil residue, which tastes delicious.

After the golden armor was given to each child of the family who provided them with boiled water, the men of the family were happy.

Jin Jia has gone out to collect herbs countless times, and has encountered many things. Naturally, he knows how to deal with these people, so he waited for the boiling water to cool down and chatted. The man also asked his wife to prepare a vegetable soup for the two of them.

Ma Xiaofeng is also a half-grown boy. When he came, his mother packed more than a dozen green vegetable dumplings for him, but he would be full after eating two. When there are several children, he will give one to each of them, and when these children are finished eating, he will give another one to each of them....

I became acquainted with this family in a short while, and even the hostess of this family thought that this young man was a good boy. After going to the vegetable garden, I deliberately picked two palm-grown cucumbers and planted them in early spring. The earliest cucumbers came out and washed them for them. Two to eat.

Ding Tian waited in the yamen until it was almost time for dinner, and the two didn't come back.

"Have you really gone to collect herbs?" Ding Tian saw that in the wicker basket carried by Jin Jia, there were a large bundle of windproof, a large bundle of isatid root, and a small bundle of gentian grass.

This looks like a real medicinal herb harvester.

"If you don't really collect herbs, can you get in?" Jin Jia took the wicker basket off his back: "Xiaofeng, take yours too."

In Ma Xiaofeng's basket, there are fresh herb, sealwort and Bupleurum.

"Young Master Tian, ​​we also dug up a small ginseng." Ma Xiaofeng showed off, "It's fresh, and it hasn't been hurt at all. Mr. Buchang said that it will be planted in his yard."

"Then plant it!" Ding Tian felt that ginseng was not a hundred years old, so it would be a waste to eat it.

It is a legend that it is thousands of years old. He read a piece of news before. A wild ginseng found in Changbai Mountain grew for more than 2000 years. That is to say, it already existed in the Qin Dynasty. Even if it is dried in the sun, it is worth more than 100 million...

Ding Tian doesn't think that the golden armor can live for more than 1000 years....

"I'm going to bury the ginseng, and I have something to tell you when I come back." Jin Jia brought the ginseng over. The ginseng is now in a small box with a layer of mulch and leaves spread inside to ensure that the ginseng will not leave. Soil, can increase the survival rate of transplanting.

"Xiaofeng will follow. I'll go home and have shredded chicken to eat tonight." Ding Tian said: "I'll go make two or two rice wine."

He didn't dare to drink strong alcohol anymore, the feeling of headache was too uncomfortable after drinking it last time.

"Okay!" Jin Jia was not polite.

He left with Xiaofeng, while Ding Tian asked Zheng Dang to eat quickly. After the meal, old Uncle Zheng sent Ding Tian back with his son.

On the way, Old Uncle Zheng said a few words about the money for visiting the prison, and looked at Ding Tian with some anxiety, wondering what his reaction would be.

"I didn't think carefully about this matter." Ding Tian knew what Uncle Zheng meant. If it wasn't for too much pressure, Uncle Zheng wouldn't be able to immediately

He immediately explained to him that these jailers were already very satisfied with their current life, but it was a windfall after all.

People like Cui Jiu and Wang Qiang are usually arrested, and there will be no family members visiting the prison, so why talk about "benefit fees"?

Even in modern times, when some family members go to visit the prison, they will stuff a pack of cigarettes for the janitor or the person on duty. It is not expensive, but it is a thought.

Whether to accept or not is the second matter, but it is the decision of their family members whether to give or not.

"Huh?" Uncle Zheng didn't expect Ding Siyu to react like this, and he first realized his own shortcomings.

"I think everyone is doing the right thing. I shouldn't be too strict with everyone. However, we will accept what people give more and less. We must never take the initiative to ask for it, let alone just because someone has money. The price is sky-high, this is not what we should do." Ding Tian knew that he could not really veto the gray income, because all the prisons in the world did this, he could not change the whole world, it would be too much effort, he just had to do his job well Just work: "Give it to us, even if it's a copper coin, it's human

The heart of the family must not be too much or too little. Another thing, don’t force it if you don’t have money. It’s a poor family. What about it? "

"That's right!" Old Uncle Zheng was deeply moved by the people who came through the poor days: "You should tell the big guys tomorrow, what you said makes sense, and I can't say it."

There is one more thing he didn't say. What Ding Tian said, everyone will be more convinced of him as a prison manager.

"Okay, we have a meeting tomorrow... well, let's get together, I want to lecture!" Ding Tian smiled.

When I was in Niujiao County, I was alone in the cell, and I could do whatever I wanted, and there were no prisoners.

It's different now, now there are thirty male and female jailers, not counting the cook and two handymen.

There are more people, so there are more things to do, and all aspects must be considered... When I got home, I asked Aunt Jin to bring a roast chicken to Old Zheng: "This is a gift from a friend, you can take it home and taste it."

In fact, it was sent by Wang Fugui. The post station bought a batch of fat chickens and made them into roasted chickens. Wang Zuo used them as a treat, but after they were cooked, Wang Zuo asked Wang Fugui to send five chickens to Ding Tian first.

They are all the best roast chickens, the kind that are fat and oily. Ding Tian asked Aunt Jin to take one, and asked Aunt Jin to send another to the dim sum shop, and this one was taken away by Uncle Zheng.

He and Jin Jia ate the remaining one in a while, and the other one was taken away by Jin Jia.

Because the weather is hot at this time, the food will become sour overnight, so it should not be wasted.

What's more, it's meat!

"Okay, then Old Zheng Uncle will go back and have a drink!" Old Uncle Zheng was not polite, let his son carry the roast chicken, waved goodbye to Ding Tian, ​​and went home.

After a while, Jin Jia came and said to Ding Tian before entering the door: "I have something to tell you about Liu Laoshi's case, you guessed it right, there is indeed something else hidden."
