Just as the little leader greeted the prefect, the two servants over there wanted to rob the woman and left quickly. Who knew that before they could get close to the woman's side, they were kicked aside by Zhang Han one by one, and seeing their panicked appearance, Zhang Han intuitively felt that there was a problem. So he went closer to the woman to protect her from being forcibly taken away by the two men.

And this woman was very shrewd, as soon as she saw that the kind military master actually knelt down to a young man, even if the scene was full of words, and there was no chance to hear these words of the prefect clearly, but this did not prevent her from guessing the identity of this young man. At least this person's status is higher than that of the military master just now, and he can protect himself more from being killed by that vicious man.

As soon as she thought that she had a better chance of survival, she was full of strength, ran to Xiaolong in a few steps, knelt down and fell to the ground suddenly, and begged loudly: "Ask the official master for help!" ”

Xiaolong remembered that Anzi's brother's letter mentioned that for things he didn't understand, don't rush to say anything to deal with, it's best to keep silent and wait to find out the situation before making judgments. Therefore, he said to the woman, "Please go back to the yamen and tell me if you have anything!" After saying that, he said to Zhang Han: "Take the two subordinates who are with this woman back to the yamen." ”

At this time, Zhang Han consciously brought in his identity, straightened his waist, and replied loudly: "Yes!" My lord! ”

Xiaolong's official authority also grew taller unconsciously in this loud shout. Erya saw Xiaolong in the car subconsciously straightening his waist, straightening his neck, raising his head, and shrugging his shoulders, as if he wanted to shake up the official authority. I remembered the "Xu Jiujing Promotion Record" I once watched, and I was full of joy, and I unconsciously covered my mouth and laughed. Wen Yue, who was sitting on the other side, saw his mother stealing fun. asked curiously: "Mother! See what's fun? ”

Erya shook her head and replied with a smile: "It's nothing! It's just that when I see your little uncle coming out now, I want to laugh when I think of him when he was a child! ”

Wen Yue nodded, "I know!" I often hear the eldest grandmother and the second grandmother say that you are used to the lawlessness of the little uncle. ”

Erya reached out and rubbed her son's hair, and said with a smile: "It's not!" When I first married your father, your little uncle was only two or three years old, thin and small. Timid all day long, they hide when they see people, and they don't dare to look up at people. The timid don't even dare to touch a sparrow. Where can lawlessness go? Later, although he was a little bolder, he was just a little naughty compared to before! ”

Later, with the connivance of his sister-in-law, this little guy who became naughty and mischievous grew up so quickly, and became a big official in the blink of an eye. remembered the first time he slept with his brother and sister-in-law at home. Wake up early the next morning. Before her eyes opened, she called Erya "Niang" in a daze, and her heart suddenly softened as if it was about to melt. Ay! I have to find him a decent daughter-in-law as soon as possible, so that my sister-in-law, who has always played the role of a mother, should complete the task.

Thinking of being Xiaolong's daughter-in-law, Erya had a headache. She herself lives in a peasant family all the year round, and even if she has some contact with people in business, it is not the insight and etiquette that can only be seen and courteous when interacting with officials and wives. Although she watched a few minutes of the TV series in the former world, what use does that work in real life? Maybe the TV series is also a nonsense made up for granted, and if it really comes to this kind of real life, I'm afraid it won't work either. Think about the limitations of your own life. This brother and daughter-in-law must be selected from the family or official family no matter what, and she must be a knowledgeable, educated, generous and decent descendant. lest they be excluded and discriminated against in the dealings between the wives of official families.

Erya thought beautifully. It's a pity that Xiaolong's current state, even if he is a four-grade official, even if the Wang family has a little money. But in the capital or the Central Plains, people with a slightly thicker background seem to be just vulgar nouveau riche and champions who are disgusted by the emperor, so they don't look down on them at all, let alone any marriage between descendants and daughters.

But these two girls don't know! She also felt good about herself, and she was thinking about finding the Kong family, the Qin family, and who else would find candidates for Xiaolong's official family or family in the capital! Hehe!

Not to mention Erya's dream, and said that they didn't need to check it anymore, they took the woman who asked for help and the two domestic servants who didn't have time to escape. The original prefect of the palace had been waiting impatiently for a long time, although his family had already left with their luggage in advance, but he had to stay here and wait for the handover to be clear before he could get out. In fact, there is nothing to hand over to the poor and white in the government, but Tongzhi insisted that he have a face-to-face handover with the newly appointed prefect. After all, this is an official matter, and he does not dare to leave everything and leave without knowing that he is willing to take responsibility. Otherwise, you will inevitably eat and fall in front of the saint! No matter what kind of attitude the Holy Lord has towards the new prefect, it is not a colleague that he can snub off. has been an official for many years, and he still has this knowledge, so even if he is very dissatisfied with the young prefect arriving too late, he can still welcome Wang Xiaolong with a smile on his face, a very huge team.

Er Ya looked at the surprised eyes of the onlookers, and couldn't help but ask herself: Is it too high-profile to get so many carriages, luggage and entourage for Xiaolong to take office?

Ay! Oh my! Is it too late to regret it now?

Xiaolong may be open-minded by nature, but he didn't see anything wrong in the eyes of the old prefect and other people who were about to become colleagues, so he just happily met them one by one and introduced each other.

After listening to Wang Xiaolong's self-introduction, the old prefect was only secretly glad in his heart that he did not treat this little prefect slowly. The emotional family is from Hepu Town! There are so many officials in his family, there are people in the capital, and there are people in the localities, so it is not a matter of raising his hand to pull him out of this quagmire!

There are also officials who have been in the remote places of the west for a long time, the news is closed, and they have never heard of the prestige of Hepu Town, and they all stupidly look at the sudden courtesy of the old prefect. secretly guessed that this new prefect must be the son of a nobleman in the capital who pretended to be a poor man and came here to experience.

After the greeting was completed, he was finally able to enter the mansion where the prefect lived. They were greeted by slaves kneeling on both sides of the main courtyard road, men on the left and women on the right. Both old and young. It's a pity that there are no children, but maybe my colleagues borrowed them from home temporarily!?

After all, Xiaolong had never experienced this, and Brother Anzi hadn't mentioned it in the letter, so he had to ask himself: "Lord Shen!" Are these servants left behind by you or from the government? ”

This Lord Shen is the old prefect, he shook his head with a smile and said, "Definitely! It is neither left by the old man, nor is it the original. They were chosen from among the servants of the house to honor the king. ”

When Erya heard this, she put her mind at ease, this is the best, where did these people come from, and where will they go back, so that cleaning them up will not cut off their way of life. Buying and selling human beings has always been a difficult hurdle for Erya to overcome. However, it is always necessary to face it, and at this point, everything that was once acceptable or not has to be faced calmly. Although changing oneself and accepting reality is a helpless way to survive, it is also the best shortcut.

The hospitality hall and even the tea room behind the screen in the hall are all cleaned, and the tables and stools are polished, and it seems that they are ready to welcome the arrival of the new prefect at any time.

Xiaolong and Xiaohu received their colleagues who entered the door together in the front hall, and Erya selected a few maids to help put their luggage in their respective rooms. You don't have to rush dinner, but you have to make the bed you want to sleep in at night as soon as possible, and you have to pack out all the clothes and toiletries. It's already in place, and those disposable, underwear, and clothes made of cotton yarn are put away and reluctant to use them again.

There are many people who do things quickly, and it doesn't take long for Xiaolong, Wen Yue, and the rooms of their husband and wife to be sorted out, so that they can live in immediately. Then he brought a few mothers-in-law to help arrange a place for the entourage and guards to stay.

The design of the house in this mansion strictly separates the boundaries of the place where the owner lives and the place where the subordinates live, and the hierarchy of the subordinates' houses is also clear, and it is not a general casual residence. In this way, it stumped Erya, these children were Xiaolong's retinue and overt and covert guards, and she never thought of grading them. Once the grades are divided, it is not only the difference in accommodation and housing, but also the treatment of money, travel, clothing, and food. This is completely different from the harmonious environment in which her husband and students, factory director and employees, and even her boss occasionally used to eat in a canteen in her own school and factory.

The children brought from home, whether they were Xiaolong's right and left hands or to protect his safety, even the coachman selected from the children of the Changgong family, Er Ya did not intend to let them be inferior to the Wang family like slaves. She just wanted these people to be free and independent, just like the people she had hired in the world.

I'll talk about the troubles in a moment, but now I'll sort out the accommodation. Of course, those servants couldn't ask Erya to do it themselves, so they first took the new bunk that had been prepared and made the bed according to the number of people. Hearing that these new covers were prepared by He Tongzhi at the expense of He Tongzhi, Erya praised it in her heart and wrote down this favor.

After finishing the important business of staying that night, Erya was able to call the woman who asked for help to the inner room, and instructed Kaneki to take care of the two domestic servants. Wen Yue spontaneously guarded outside the door, and the woman who had already cleaned the wound on her forehead and bandaged it sat on the stool and began to interrogate the woman for help.

The woman sat on a stool, her posture and demeanor were very standardized, and she did not look like she came out of an ordinary family. Erya looked at her with a little doubt, but the woman didn't speak. It wasn't until Erya couldn't stand silent anymore that he whispered: "I'm afraid my wife can't control this matter!" Can you please invite the prefect to come? ”

As soon as the second girl heard this, she knew that she had made another mistake in experience. I thought it was just a family conflict, but looking at this woman's cautious, serious and frightened appearance did not look like a simple family dispute. (To be continued.) )
