Chapter VII Conditions

Zhuzhu also got up early this morning, just waiting for his mother to make sesame shortbread. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis sesame shortbread is somewhat similar to candied fruit, but it is softer than candied fruit, has less sugar, and has a layer of sesame seeds, making it more sweet and delicious.

Since she was young, Yu liked to cook all kinds of delicious sweets, and everyone in the village knew that she was skillful, and she made sesame cakes by herself. Recently, she found that when some merchants from other villages came to the village to sell goods, they sometimes brought sweets to sell, and a halva cake was sold for four copper plates, and the taste was not as delicious as what she made, so she had a bold idea, why can't she make sweets and sell them to others? Seeing that the bolt pillar has grown into an adult, after this year will be sixteen, it is time to find someone to discuss marriage, his father died early, leaving the mother and daughter, although he usually saves money, but there is not much savings, if you can sell the pastries to the people in the surrounding villages, earn a few taels of silver, you can give the bolt pillar a kiss, take more dowry, find a good girl.

With this idea, recently Yu often asked the bolt pillar to go to the city to buy some materials for making pastries, and made some a few days ago, trying to make the bolt pillar sell it a few times in Yangliu Village and Heqing Village in the west, and actually earned ten copper plates.

This morning, she heard that the Lotus was going to take his ox cart to the county seat, so she made a few sesame shortbread and asked the Bolt to bring to the Lotus. The two packs of snowflake crisps that the bolt came back last time made her feel that the lotus flower had really grown up and sensible, and besides, this child was also pitiful, so she must let the bolt wait for her to make it and bring it.

"Sister Lotus" said hello from afar this time, and found that Shen He looked better this time than last time, which made him a little embarrassed to look at him directly. "Waited a long time, didn't you? My mother insisted that I bring you this new shortbread she made, so I left a little later." The bolt pillar lowered his head and said.

"I didn't have to wait long," Shen He said, and quipped, "I can also move my muscles and bones by the way, I'm too fat."

"This is my mother's new one this morning, you can try it" Zhu Zhu handed the shortbread to Shen He and drove the ox cart on the road.

Shen He was not polite, took it and thanked him, then picked up a shortbread and ate it. She was in a hurry this morning, and she just hadn't eaten. After eating two bites of shortbread, I felt that the taste was very palatable, not as sweet and greasy as candied fruit, fragrant and crispy, and I actually ate two in one go.

Seeing that she ate so sweetly, Zhu Zhu smiled and said, "If Sister Lotus likes to eat, I will send you some in the future."

"No need, these are enough" Shen He said, "If you eat like this again, you will really become a pig," he laughed after speaking.

Zhu Zhu didn't expect Shen He to be quite joking, and he also smirked twice.

The two of them talked and laughed and soon arrived in Yong'an City, and returned at the time and place agreed last time, and Shen He ran to Yong'an County again.

Today's county government has been busy early in the morning.

Lu Yu almost didn't sleep all night last night, looking at the file and seeing the fifth watch, it was dawn after a little nap, and today he has to re-interrogate Liu Cheng, and he has to listen to the rhetoric of the relevant people again, he is busy.

Hearing a noise in the room, Moying, who was waiting outside the door, walked in with toiletries.

"Master, Yin Xiancheng and Master Chen have already arrived, and they have been waiting in the front hall for a long time."

"Oh, I'll go over right away" Lu Yu wiped his face slightly, and Mo Ying helped him change into his official uniform and went to the front hall.

When Shen He walked into the county office, he happened to see Lu Yu walking towards the front hall. The two walked to the courtyard at the same time and looked straight at each other.

Lu Yu didn't sleep last night, he had just woken up, and suddenly he seemed to see a cabbage coming over, and after a closer look, it turned out to be a chubby woman.

Shen He was a little surprised to see Lu Yu. In the previous life, it was this newly appointed magistrate who sent herself to prison, and of course she remembered it clearly. At that time, several uncles of the village family interceded for her, hoping to give her a light sentence because of the death of her parents and her miserable background, but the young magistrate said that she was vicious and had no cure, so she was sentenced to a heavy sentence and let her stay in prison for an extra year.

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered a big event. If you think about it carefully, that major event happened when Liu Zhixian was dismissed and Xinzhi County took office. Shen He remembered that it was the "headless male corpse case", which caused a sensation in the city at that time, Shen He remembered that after the new county took office, the case was solved in less than half a month, and the people of Yong'an City were about to praise him to the sky, and during that time, everyone in the streets and alleys was talking about the bizarre case and the wisdom of the X county order.

She was still thinking about it, Lu Yu only glanced at her twice and rushed to the front hall to discuss the matter. She also slowly came back to her senses, and suddenly had an idea in her heart, and hurriedly went to the back office to find Wu Changzhi.

Wu Changzhi was talking to the crowd about the new Lu Zhixian in the back office.

"Look at this Lord Lu is an urgent child, and he started to try the case on the first day he came," someone said. "Yes, I heard Yan Tou say that this Lord Lu didn't close his eyes last night in order to study the case", "What is the use of studying for a night?" We've been studying it for half a year", "Maybe he can come up with some tricks", "You just look forward to it, so we can breathe a sigh of relief".

Everyone was talking, and some of them saw Shen He coming from a distance. "Hey, look" someone stabbed Wu Changzhi with his elbow. Wu Changzhi raised his eyes and saw that it was Shen He who came.

Shen He followed Wu Changzhi to his dormitory in the county office. Wu Changzhi was also a little surprised in his heart, after not seeing her for a few days, this mother-in-law was not as ugly as before, and she was much thinner than before. However, none of this would affect his determination to get rid of her, and Wu Changzhi took the prepared and divorced book to Shen He, which was already stamped with the official seal of the county government and his signature. Shen He took it and read it carefully, but he didn't sign it, but gently put the book back on the table.

"Why, you don't want to regret it, do you?" Wu Changzhi was a little annoyed.

"Don't worry, since I promised to leave and will not regret it," Shen He said, "But I still have one condition, as long as you promise me, you can sign."

"On what terms?" Wu Changzhi asked.

"Is there a big case being tried in the yamen recently?" Shen He didn't answer, but asked.

"There is a case," Wu Changzhi was a little puzzled, what did they have to do with Li's trial of the case, "Why are you asking this?" ”

"I've heard people talk about this case before," Shen He said, "and now I have a good plan to help close the case, and I hope you will take me to meet the new county magistrate."

"What? You want to see Lord Lu? Wu Changzhi was a little surprised, and felt that her words were not credible, "What can you do as a woman, you will understand the matter of adjudicating the case?" ”

"Don't worry, my method is absolutely feasible," Shen He said again, "If I'm not sure, how dare I go to the county master and talk nonsense?" Besides, even if it doesn't work, I won't blame you." Shen He knew Wu Changzhi's concerns, Xinzhi County had just taken office, what if she went to make trouble and affected her future?

"But if this method is useful, it will be of great benefit to you," Shen He continued, "We are happy to leave, and you have made meritorious contributions in front of Xinzhi County, why not do it?" ”
