Chapter 004: Sue the City Lord

After the snow, the streets are not a little sluggish in winter, and the cars and horses on the road move slowly, and the people wear heavy jackets and carry small baskets in their hands, buying and preparing for the New Year along the way.

Wait until the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, there will be a snow every few days, the weather is cold, every household is closed, sitting on the kang to keep warm, Laqi Laba, frozen jaws, is a true portrayal of Licheng, if you cry outside, tears will immediately condense into ice flowers.

Licheng was still the territory of the barbarians a few decades ago, and the people were upright and fierce, and the two of them were on the road, because whoever looked at him more could fight, and the lines were like this.

"Who are you looking at?"

"Look at you, what's wrong?"

"No, you can try again!"

Then, the man really tried, and the two of them fought in the street, and if they were really evenly matched, they patted each other on the shoulders and called each other brothers, as if they had strangled each other to death for a moment.

Mo Xiaohe has been here for five years, and has encountered countless fights, since she gave birth, she has suffered from hemopathy, and when she sees blood, she feels black in front of her eyes, and wants to find someone to come forward to persuade her, and finds that the onlookers are not afraid of big things, and they applaud again and again.

Fortunately, these people are all measured, so far, except for the blue nose and swollen face, there is really no other big problem, the people of Licheng are accustomed to this, only Mo Xiaohe was shocked, but it made people laugh a few times.

However, after the first snow in winter, the people become unusually kind, and if there is any small friction between the neighbors on weekdays, they all hold the attitude of calming things down, or keeping accounts, and wait for the spring of the next year to bloom, and then do a competition, and win the winner.

"It is said that no matter how high their martial arts are, they are afraid of kitchen knives, and they are afraid of the cold no matter how good their kung fu is."

Mo Xiaohe imagined that the two of them were rolling in the ice and snow, rolling into a big snowball, the snow went down her neck into her clothes, she shrunk her neck, and goosebumps got on her body, no wonder these people have to be patient, the taste of the snowball wrapped around her body is not pleasant.

The snow on the street was flattened by the passing carriages, and the imprints left by the deep wheels on it, Mo Xiaohe pulled Gu Zheng and specially picked the path where the snow had not been trampled, and the sheepskin boots were buried in the snow, making a creaking sound.

The west of the city is the gathering place of ordinary people in Dayue, and there are many foreigners who moved to escape the war.

Drinking is a big hobby of the people of Licheng, regardless of men and women, up to the old people who are close to ancient times, down to the little dolls without hair, they are all good to drink a few sips, especially in the cold winter of the number nine. The couple shuttled along the small alley, and during this time they met several officials of the yamen. As the lord of Licheng, Gu Zheng doesn't care too much about people's livelihood issues, but Mo Xiaohe, who is soft-hearted, is always worried that the heavy snow will collapse the roof and the affected people will be homeless. In order to calm the heart of his own lady, Gu Zheng gave a death order, every time after the snow, the yamen officials had to divide the area, routinely inspect, and report to the yamen when they encountered dangerous houses, and the city lord's mansion was responsible for the repair of the people's houses.

Of course, with Mo Xiaohe's stingy personality of picking on the door and being a fan of money, this silver will definitely not come out by itself, and finally make up for it in the big merchants, and share it evenly on both sides, which can just constitute a balance and a good reputation.

"Husband, your lady is smart!"

Mo Xiaohe narcissistically praised herself a few words, and sometimes thought about it, she is also a crossing woman, and Mo Yan has the life of a mother, but only for thinking about it, she is not envious and jealous, because she is very satisfied with her current life.

is in a high position and has a heavy responsibility, Mo Xiaohe feels that he is used to being casual, and he may not be able to do it.

"Hmm." In this regard, Gu Zheng never refuted, nodded yes, and his face was serious, giving people the feeling that this answer was quite rigorous, but in fact, he didn't care at all.

The official has a good ability to do things, the record is very serious, and the attitude towards the people is also good. What are you kidding, they are disciplined, if they accept it and are reported, this good errand will be gone. In the past, everyone didn't do the same thing, thinking that it was a rule on the surface, but in private, everyone did their own thing, and they didn't know how the city lord knew, and those who looted the people were all beaten and lost their errands, which shows that the rules are quite strict, not a joke.

Since the coal has been available, the people of Licheng have a much better winter life, and everything is going on in an orderly manner. The couple walked and stopped, by the way to enjoy the snow scene, there is a bleak beauty in winter, and the elegant Jiangnan water town is different, there is a unique sense of simplicity and heaviness.

It's not early, the market is about to disperse, Gu Zheng and Mo Xiaohe just started to buy things, there is a century-old lo-mei shop on the street, pig ears are a must, idle and boring, the couple sit opposite each other, get some snacks, use the red clay stove to scald the wine, and the two of them have a few drinks.

In the mess at the entrance of the medical hall in front of us, a woman was sitting on the ground, making an earth-shattering cry, scolding while slapping her thighs, and a couple next to her was wiping her tears, unable to say a word, she could only lower her head, rubbing her red hands helplessly, and looking sad. "Isn't this the father and mother of the second pillar?" When Mo Xiaohe saw the two, her heart tightened, she didn't know the woman sitting on the ground. The two buns in their own house are still playing in the village, and they are at home, why did the two of them go out of the village with their front and back feet? There were no adults at home, Mo Xiaohe was very worried, she pulled Gu Zheng and walked forward quickly, in a hurry, her brain was sweating urgently, the road was slippery in the snow, she stumbled, and she almost fell, but Gu Zheng was quick and took her into her arms, so that she would not make a fool of herself in public. There was movement here, the father and mother of the second pillar looked over, and when they saw the two of them, as if they had found a savior, their eyes lit up, and the mother of the second pillar even grabbed Mo Xiaohe's sleeve, "Big sister, I can be regarded as finding you!" ”

The second pillar is called Osmanthus, she is honest, and both husband and wife are a little wooden, so they are not treated by the families of both sides, and they were swept out of the house as soon as they got married, and they didn't get a big son. A few years ago, the couple lived hard and lived in a shack in the village, but fortunately, both of them were diligent, not as lazy as they were, and they built a house and bought land with their own skills, which can be regarded as saving a family business.

Because he understands the personality of the couple, Mo Xiaohe is relieved to let Erzhuang and Meimei play with those crazy boys in the village, for fear that the two little ones will be too autistic and will not fit in in the future.

"Sister Osmanthus, what happened to Erzhuang and Meimei?"

Mo Xiaohe had already denied this conclusion in her heart, if something happened to the two, Osmanthus would not have a relieved expression when she saw her, but a look that she couldn't explain. "You're the mother of the dead girl?"

The woman who was crying at the door suddenly stopped, wiped a handful of snot with her hand, stood up without warning, and came straight to Mo Xiaohe, "If my dog is a little bad, I will let your family lose money and pay for your life!" "Dog eggs, I think it's donkey dung eggs!"

Inexplicably rushed out of a shrew and insulted her own beauty, Mo Xiaohe quickly replied, but the reason for the matter, she still has to investigate clearly, if it is Meimei's mistake, she must educate when she goes back, but an outsider scolds her own heart and soul baby, then it is absolutely impossible, otherwise where will her face be put by the city lord's wife?

"Okay, your daughter hurt people at a young age, and it's reasonable! I'm going to sue the yamen and find the city lord to judge!" The woman's hair was messy, her eyes were red, and she had a tendency to go crazy, this posture made Mo Xiaohe stunned, was she looking for the wrong person? Gu Meimei is only more than three years old, can she hurt people? It's really a bit incredible, but looking at the expression of Erzhuzi's father, it seems that there is such a thing.

"There are a little stumbling between the little babies, your dog is injured, why, it's not ......" Erzhu's mother Guihua wanted to say a few words for Mo Xiaohe, and saw the dog's mother's posture of wanting to die, and uncomfortably pulled the corner of her clothes, the dog boy was the cheapest, and he was disrespectful and bullied Meimei, so Erzhuang and Meimei joined forces and cleaned up the people.

This kid ran home crying, I don't know what's wrong, maybe someone chiseled ice fishing before, and the dog fell into the ice hole.

Mo Xiaohe took a deep breath, her face was calm, her identity could not be concealed sooner or later, she nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "The dead girl in your mouth is held in the palm of your hand by Mrs. Ben, just your words, I will not be wronged by slapping you ten times." Ignoring the woman's expression, she continued, "Aren't you trying to sue the city lord?" You don't need to go to the City Lord's Mansion, right now, you'd better have a proper reason. ”

Looking at the excitement around, you look at me, I look at you, I don't quite understand the meaning, their city lord, right in front of him, is it hidden among the people?

In order to facilitate travel, Gu Zheng wore a mask, and no one thought of the city lord and the city lord's wife with the two of them, even the father and mother of the two pillars turned their heads and looked outside, with curiosity in their eyes.
