Ping'an County Ya

Now it is the Republic of China, but this emerging political system is still very chaotic, Shandong has been newly divided, using the county system, the Ping'an county magistrate of the Republic of China, living and working in the Qing Dynasty left over from the Ping'an County Ya.

In the afternoon of this day, the county magistrate of Ping'an County, as usual, paced back and forth in the back office, like a trapped beast, if you look carefully, you can find that the eyes of the county magistrate Zhang have been densely covered with a lot of red silk, which is very scary.

At that time, he was just in his thirties, the most energetic prime, and in the past three years, he has made a lot of money, and he thought that since then, he will return to the hermitage and live in the countryside, not tired by the case, and have no worries about food and clothing, and be free and easy.

But I didn't expect that this money and wealth would come and go quickly, the family business was getting bigger, the money was consumed, the neighbors were restless, and the children and grandchildren were not good, and they slowly fell up, and they were slowly going to return to the down-and-out situation before the middle lift.

At this time, County Magistrate Zhang was already fifty or three years old, although he had passed the year of the Mandate of Heaven, he felt that his body was still quite strong, and he repeatedly searched for the amount of thought, and the only way was to re-enter the official career.

Looking at this world again, it is very different from 20 years ago, the emperor abdicated, and the one who sat on the throne changed his name to call the president, saying that the world is republic, but the president is not as stable as having the emperor in charge. The governors and commanders of all places were able to lead troops to attack each other.

County Magistrate Zhang gathered all his money and connections, put down the glory and pride of the past, and entered this stormy sea after 20 years. At first, it was quite smooth, and he took the line of the governor of Shandong, but he didn't think about it, and he suddenly started a war, and he fought with foreign guns and foreign artillery for half a year, and his backer was still the losing side.

The backer of the backer fell, and the backer was smart enough to drill the camp, and after some tossing, he still got himself a position as a county magistrate as agreed.

I rely on the backer, and the backer is also a talent who is a confidant, hoping that I can help him stabilize a safe county, and it is also the capital to save his life in the future.

So this county magistrate Zhang, he received a letter of appointment from the Jinan Prefecture Department, and brought his master's family, full of hope to take office, only to know that the county magistrate of Ping'an County is difficult to do, the county government is a dense iron plate, Rao is his face is as thick as the city wall, his head is as sharp as an iron vertebrae, and he still can't get in.

County Magistrate Zhang had no choice but to ask the backer for help, and the backer's face was not good-looking, and he said:

"I still expect you to be a capable person, this Ping'an county magistrate is very good, as long as the local big Zhang family nods, you, the county magistrate, want wind and wind, rain and rain, what kind of world is it now, and then I want to have such an easy errand, but it is difficult to find a lantern."

County Magistrate Zhang was gloomy, it was simple to say, but it was difficult to do, the Zhang family in Ping'an County was really stubborn, let's talk about it first, he didn't have half a soldier in his hands, so he naturally wouldn't move his tough mind, and he knew it in his heart.

The old house of the Zhang family, a while ago, was beaten by a group of soldiers of the former overseer, and I don't know what grievances have been accumulated, so I pulled the artillery to bombard the old house of the Zhang family, and brought artillery to bombard the house, which sounds bizarre enough, and what is even more bizarre is that they exchanged hands, and the mutual fire of muskets and artillery between the two compartments, the soldiers of the former overseer were defeated.

The Zhang family is also interesting, they only said that they were beaten by the Xiangma bandits, and naturally there was no need to emphasize that it was the regular army that beat them, not to mention, the prince of the Cheng was defeated and became a coward. This overseer has fought a lot of battles with people, and now he is defeated and can no longer be defeated, and now everyone shouts and fights the appearance of a water dog, and it can be said that it is appropriate to call his men to rattle their horses.

It will definitely not work to come hard, and County Magistrate Zhang has never had such a plan, County Magistrate Zhang is planning to come to a soft one and be a small low.

The old lady of the Zhang family did a funeral, he easily handed over the name card and went in to worship, but he didn't say a few words, and he came to Taiping County for two months, and he didn't even get anyone who could talk.

In Zhang County's abacus, there is basically no bottom line, and he began to plan that the old lady of the Zhang family is about the same age as himself, and he has the same surname, so he is wronged, and it is okay to recognize a junior.

Later, the conditions dropped again and again, and Zhang Xianling even felt that if the uncle of the Zhang family allowed it, it was feasible for him to simply think that he was his junior, since it was the same surname, it was easy to explain, the same surname, the grandson on crutches, and the grandfather in the swaddling clothes were also very many. But in the end, I still didn't talk.

Later, the county magistrate Zhang inquired and knew that this Zhang family, several generations of single transmission, to the last generation, only a big girl, has long been decided to recruit a son-in-law. Although his grandsons are not angry, just in terms of appearance, they can all take a shot, if the Zhang family can see one, then it will be developed.

County Changkong Zhang had planned a lot, but there was no one who didn't deliver the message.

The two masters who came together have their own strengths in looting and managing accounts, criminal names, and academic politics, but they also need this situation to open up a little bit before they can show that.

County Magistrate Zhang also knows the role of his wife's diplomacy, and this time he also deliberately brought his wife who married after his development, and wanted to leave the door of the female dependents of the Zhang family's compound.

The post of the county magistrate's wife also handed over several copies, but the concierge of the Zhang family's mansion did not accept it, and all of them replied that it was not good to meet guests by keeping filial piety.

As the days passed, County Magistrate Zhang still couldn't interfere in all kinds of affairs in the county, although he had also participated in several necessary ceremonies with a cheeky face, and the attitude of his subordinates was unsatisfactory, but one by one, just like the window glass of the West, he could see it clearly, but he couldn't get in.

In the afternoon of this day, the weather was quite good, neither hot nor lukewarm, and County Magistrate Zhang was very bored, and in the back house of the yamen, a person turned his back and repeatedly paced and thought in the patio.

"Sir...... Master...... Lord......"

I saw his stepwife, wearing a split red cheongsam embroidered by Hunan embroidery, trotting all the way, joyful, jubilant, shouting loudly and rushing in.

"Master, look at what I brought, Shandong pancakes, haha, Shandong pancakes, sir, look at Shandong pancakes."

County Magistrate Zhang only felt that his heart, liver, stomach, lungs, and kidneys were all uncomfortable, and small flames were rising in his internal organs, and he raised his hand to smoke this crazy woman to death.

But after all, he still didn't make a move, Zhang Xianling was born in the Qing Dynasty after all, and he had a good temperament and cultivation. He just lowered his voice and reprimanded:

"What are you yelling about, are you crazy? When I came to this Shandong, I ate pancakes and green onions at once, and I was disgusted when I smelled my appetite, so I threw them all out. ”

Mrs. Zhang, the county magistrate, didn't care about her master's attitude at all, and happily brought up the food in her hand:

"Master, this pancake was given by the eldest girl of the Zhang family, the eldest girl of the old house of the Zhang family who has been passed down for several generations, I can see her, she is young, pretty, this pancake, but the eldest girl of the Zhang family gave it."

"What do you say? The big girl? Are you talking about the eldest girl in the Zhang family's old house? ”

County Magistrate Zhang excitedly grabbed his wife's hand, looking at the pancake, it was like seeing the dragon liver and phoenix marrow.
