Wearing a county magistrate to build infrastructure

"Qingcheng did not misunderstand the person." Xu Qingcheng smiled.

Tang Zisheng also laughed, but when he caught sight of the wound on Xu Qingcheng's hand from the corner of his eye, he frowned slightly, "The wound hasn't been treated yet?"

After Xu Qingcheng was reminded like this, he remembered that he was so preoccupied with thinking about Mr. Tang's identity last night that he didn't remember the scar on his hand from the rope, "It doesn't matter."

"It doesn't matter how it happened." Tang Zisheng took out another jar of medicine and handed it over, "This is the medicine I brought back from the county. I rub it on the wound every morning and evening. It will heal soon. I'm afraid there is rubbed on your left shoulder too. Injury, don't be careless."

"Since it was Mr. Tang's kind intentions, Qingcheng accepted it." Xu Qingcheng took the small medicine jar, and he should have refused, but Tang Zisheng bought the medicine for him, but he didn't want to accept it, "Mr. Tang Are you free? Daddy said he wanted to treat you to a light meal, thank you for saving me yesterday."

"If you're free, you're free. It's just that what I did yesterday didn't count as saving people. Brother Xu, you also contributed. The wound on your hand is the evidence left by subduing the wild boar."

"Since Mr. Tang agreed to come to eat, he naturally said what he said." Xu Qingcheng followed Tang Zisheng's words when he saw Tang Zisheng agreed.

When the two were about to leave for Xu's house, Uncle Mo suddenly chased him out of the house, "Hey, Empress Tang, I missed one more thing."

Tang Zisheng looked back at Uncle Mo who hurriedly chased him out, and asked, "Uncle Mo, why are you in such a hurry?"

"It's the two boys from Wang's family last night. The village chief has already punished them. Let me remember to tell you when I see you today."

Uncle Mo heard the screams of the two boys from the Wang family last night, and he only hoped that the lessons learned this time can make these two rogues settle down for a while.

"Well, please trouble Uncle Mo to tell the village head, just say that I know, this matter is exposed, I hope the village head manages the village well, and similar things don't happen again."

"Okay." Uncle Mo nodded, watched Tang Zisheng and Brother Xu leave, and went to the village chief's house with his hands behind his back.

-

When Xu Yingle heard the sound of the door opening, he was busy working on the stove. After not doing heavy work these years, he put his mind on light work.

On weekdays, sewing, mending, making tea and cooking are also good skills.Since you are inviting people to dinner, you can't be too shivering. If you don't have good food, you have to have a good skill.

"Mr. Tang, sit down, I'll pour water." Xu Qingcheng took a small bench, went into the kitchen and scooped up a bowl of water.

"Thank you." Tang Zisheng took a sip of water. The last time he drank it at Aunt Mo's house because he was so thirsty, he basically swallowed it into his mouth. Now that he tasted it carefully, the water quality is really good. Is it the well water in the village?"

"Well, that well has been around for some years. The ancestors of Baihe Village have relied on it for generations. Even in these years of drought, the water in the well has never been less."

Tang Zisheng nodded. It seems that the underground water source near Cang'er County is still abundant.

"By the way, Mr. Tang, yesterday I heard from Uncle Mo that you went up the mountain to find something. I often go to the mountains, so I can help you pay attention to it, Mr. Tang."

"Hehe, I'm not afraid to meet wild boars in the mountains again."

"I don't go into the deep mountains. The outer and inner mountains are very big. I usually go to the outer mountains to find some herbs, and the range is wider."

"Herbal medicine? Brother Xu, do you know medical skills?"

Xu Qingcheng shook his head hastily, "Medical skills in Cang'er County are the skills of housekeepers. I don't have the ability to do that. It's just that when Dad delivered embroidery to the shop, he met the wife of a small medical clinic in the county. The lady was kind. So she asked her husband to teach me how to recognize a few herbs, so that I could dig some useful medicinal materials from the mountains and send them to the medical center to earn some money."

"So that's how it is." Tang Zisheng picked up a twig from the ground after understanding it, made a few gestures on the sand, and roughly drew the appearance of sweet potatoes and potatoes, "I'm looking for these two kinds of things. Please pay more attention to Brother Xu."

Xu Qingcheng firmly memorized these two things before replying in embarrassment, "It's easy, don't bother."

Village entrance.

Zheng Gongshu rushed all the way to Baihe Village with his subordinates from several workshops.Since he wanted to perform well in front of the county magistrate, it was natural to ask where the county magistrate went yesterday to discover their omissions.

Fortunately, some of his subordinates were clever. After half of the journey after Tang Zhi County left the government, he judged that the place Tang Zhi County was going to was Baihe Village.

Without further ado, Zheng Gongshu led his people to Baihe Village. Originally, the people under his command wanted him to come by carriage, but he refused.

Isn't this hurting him?Now in the county government, except for the county magistrate himself, no one dares to say that the horse-drawn carriage is used for travel. It is the wealthy family of the county magistrate Zhou who bought a private-use horse-drawn carriage with his own money.

But what kind of official position is the county magistrate, and what kind of official position is he, taking a carriage to Baihe Village not only fails to show courtesy, but also puts himself on the fire, which is simply an idiot's behavior.

After walking for half an hour, Zheng Gongshu's pampered body almost confessed to being on the road. Fortunately, his hard work paid off. Before he reached the entrance of Baihe Village, he saw the county magistrate's carriage from a distance, and silently standing beside him. long follow.

"Master Sui, your lord is in the village now." Zheng Gongshu wiped his sweat with the handkerchief he was carrying. The sun is strong enough, so he needs to be more skillful in flattering.

"Master Zheng, I'm here." Tang Mo and Miao Xunjian's two subordinates had been waiting at the entrance of the village for a long time, just waiting for Zheng Gongshu to throw himself into the trap.

"It's fine, it's fine, then I won't bother you much, and I'll go to the village head of Baihe Village to find out about the situation."

After confirming the news, Zheng Gongshu waved his hand and let the younger ones follow. As the clerk of Liufangzhong Workshop, he still knew the layout of several villages around Cang'er County no matter how he didn't do practical things.

What's more, he still has people under his command, and several of them were selected from the village. This time he came to Baihe Village, he naturally brought a person who knew the details of Baihe Village.

There was an acquaintance leading the way, and Zheng Gongshu didn't spend any time inquiring, so he arrived at the village head's house in Baihe Village. Coincidentally, there was not only the village head at the village head's house, but also several people in the village who could talk. If it weren't for Zheng Gongshu Knowing that he made a temporary decision, he thought that Baihe Village was a roundworm in his stomach, and knew that he was coming.

"But Village Chief Zhang?"

Zheng Gongshu's tone was friendly, and he was taken aback by the village head Zhang, who used to be angry when he went to the county government. It turns out that these officials can speak human language.

"That's right, I just don't know who you are?" Village Chief Zhang hasn't seen a senior official in the county who can talk to him for many years.

Apart from being able to tell that the person is a person in the county by his clothes, he can't tell anything else.

"I'm the clerk of the Liufangzhong workshop in the yamen of Cang'er County, that is, the steward. I came here today because our new county master said that all villages are in trouble, so he sent me to check and find a way for you. .”

Zheng Gongshu seemed to have a good temper when he spoke, but Village Chief Zhang, who had known the temperament of the county officials, felt that something was wrong, "Did Master Tang really order it?"

Their Baihe village offended the new county magistrate yesterday, although brother Mo came over just now and said that the county magistrate is no longer bothered.

But how could they have arranged someone to solve the problem for Baihe Village so quickly, it could be that they were lying to him.

"Of course it is true. I got Master Tang's order early this morning. Your village is the first one I visited. Hurry up and find someone to take me to see the fields. We have to rush to other villages." Zheng Gongshu's tone was a little tough, these villagers just have a lot of things to do.

"Hey, okay, I'll take my lord there now." Village head Zhang got up immediately, and then called the elders in the village to leave, "You guys have worked hard today, I have something to do, so let's leave for now."

"Okay, let's get busy in the village and leave us alone."

"That's right, I didn't rest last night, so I will go back to sleep now."

……

Xu family.

Xu Qingcheng was washing the dishes, while Tang Zisheng and Xu Yingle were left sitting on the edge of the door talking.

"Listening to Uncle Xu's words, does it mean that you have studied?" Tang Zisheng felt that Xu Yingle was not like the other people he met in Baihe Village. The family who could let his brother study, not to mention rich and powerful, should also be well-off, why? will fall here.

Xu Yingle sighed when asked about this, "I used to be a slave in a rich family, and I learned some things from my master. Later, I committed a crime and was kicked out. At that time, I was with a caravan. They passed by this place. place, I will stay."

Tang Zisheng clicked his tongue, why did he ask other people's sadness just by asking, he remembered that he didn't have this skill before, "Then Uncle Xu stayed because he met Brother Xu's father here?"

Xu Yingle smiled wryly and shook her head, but did not open her mouth to explain.

It's over, and he stepped on the thunder again. When did he have such bad luck, "Hey, I'd better go to the kitchen to see if Brother Xu can help. Uncle Xu, sit down."

Seeing this young man fleeing into the kitchen with an embarrassed expression, Xu Yingle felt a lot better when he was mentioned about his heartache. The young man's words made it sound like he was the guest.

"Why did Mr. Tang come in? The kitchen is full of oily smoke. Don't get smoked." Xu Qingcheng had already washed the bowl, wiped the water from his hands on the apron tied around his waist, and then untied the apron. Cloth is ready to come out.

"Where is it, all the food I eat is made in this room, how can I dislike it." Tang Zisheng didn't want to face Brother Xu's father alone for the time being. .

Xu Qingcheng nodded in agreement, then suddenly stood on tiptoe and took a peek at Daddy outside, then turned his gaze away and asked with a smile, "What did Mr. Tang say to Daddy, you came in like you escaped like this."

Tang Zisheng touched his nose, which was obvious, "It's my fault. I asked some bad questions. It must have touched your father's heart."

Xu Qingcheng immediately understood what Mr. Tang asked. After all, the only one who could make his father feel sad was the father he had never met.

"Young Master Tang, don't worry about it, my father is just"

"I said something wrong. If Brother Xu still comforts me, I'm helping the evildoer." Tang Zisheng interrupted Brother Xu, thinking that he should go to Uncle Xu to apologize later.

Xu Qingcheng was amused by Tang Zisheng's words again, Mr. Tang is really an interesting person.
