Chapter 11 Add water to the tank
For the first time, Cao Wei hated himself for being so good!
If you stayed at home honestly and didn't go to the county government to brush up on your sense of existence, you wouldn't be remembered by thieves...
If you don't have to be remembered by thieves, you don't have to get up at 5 a.m. every day to go to work. According to Cao Wei's knowledge, the Yamen has the saying of painting Mao and painting unitary, and painting Mao is to go to Yamen to paint and sign in at the right time, which is five o'clock in the morning and five o'clock in the afternoon.
In other words, every day from 5 in the morning to 5 in the evening, working twelve hours a day, Cao Wei thought that it was better to be broken leg...
At the moment, when Cao Wei came to the gate of the county yamen, his heart was half cold, only to see that the gate of the yamen was closed, where could he see half a figure, the cool breeze in the early morning blew through the crotch of his pants, Cao Wei clamped his legs, and muttered to himself: "I'm so stupid, I really ......"
It is indeed necessary to draw Mao and draw unitary in the yamen for assessment purposes, but when the errand boy can get up so early, every day at home unhurriedly after breakfast, he will come to the yamen, fill in his name in the Mao Shi column, this is considered to be on time today, this kind of operation is not something that a rookie like Cao Wei can understand.
Didn't you see that the county order was still tired of the concubine's bed? So don't be so wronged yourself, otherwise you will feel more distressed.
At three o'clock in the morning, that is, at eight or nine o'clock, the gate of the yamen finally opened, and some errand officers came to the county government intermittently, only to see a young man running into the county government in a panic with his stomach in his hands.
In the thatched house, Cao Wei wanted to scold his mother, on the east side of the yamen, the uncle who set up a stall to buy meat cakes in the early morning must be a profiteer, and the meat in the cake was placed for at least three days, no wonder he expressed his willingness to add another penny, and the boss looked so strange when he asked for more meat.
He is a mother!
Hey, I'm so angry! Cao Wei picked up the-stirring stick placed on the side of the thatched house and threw it at the thatched house next door.
Then I heard a scream from the hut next door, followed by a heart-rending howl......
Cao Wei's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly ran out of the thatched house and walked to the side to watch the changes.
After hearing the screams, a lot of officials gathered at the door of the thatched house, all looked at the thatched house with a surprised face, and after a while, I saw a big man coming out of the thatched house, his face was pale, and his clothes were still sticking to the things of the courtesy, and he was holding a ... -stirring sticks.
The big man opened the thatched house where Cao Wei had just squatted, and was disappointed when he saw that there was no one inside, and after yelling, he threw the-stirring stick into the thatched pit, splashing a ripple and startling away a group of officials.
Then the big man splashed his yellow and white stuff again......
"Isn't this the king catching the head? How can you look like this today, how can the last thatched house still be contaminated with these things, and you don't go in to eat..."
When Wang Zhutou heard the whispers of many officials, he was eager to find a crack in the ground and get in, which person casually threw a-stirring stick into the thatched house, and if he let a certain family know, he would definitely be thrown into the thatched pit for half an hour.
Thinking about it, Wang Zhutou felt extremely aggrieved, his tiger eyes were slightly red, and tears almost flowed out.
Cao Wei didn't dare to take a breath at the moment, and only breathed a sigh of relief after watching Wang Zhutou leave, and then talked to the official next to him: "Unfortunately, God is jealous of talents, and I don't know what happened, I made Wang Zhutou look like this, poor Wang Zhutou is afraid that he can't work today." ”
There was a servant who sighed and said: "Who says no, Wang Zhutou is a person who loves and hates clearly, and revenge will be avenged, and it is estimated that he will not give up if he does not find out who is harming him, and last time there was a dog who stole the food he led to the yamen, and as a result, Wang Zhutou slaughtered the dog as a meal that night......
Cao Wei heard a cold sweat, is it really good for such a big man to have such a small heart? I hate it, don't you all say that people with strong bodies are very honest?
I heard another official say very excitedly: "No matter what, Wang Zhutou can't hide his ugliness this time, this matter will become a joke, the kind that can be laughed at for a year." ”
Cao Wei bowed his hand to the two messengers, and then hurriedly retreated, and hurried to the inner hall to report to Ma County.
"The one just now is a noodle student, is it a descendant of your family?"
"No, I thought you brought it..."
“……”
Cao Wei arrived at the inner hall, but found that there were two middle-aged people sitting in the inner hall in addition to Ma Xianling, the one on the right was wearing a green robe, and there was a yellow oriole patch in the middle of his clothes, which was obviously Qinyang County. The one on the left, wearing a scarf hat and official uniform, was talking to Ma Xianling.
After seeing Cao Wei coming, Ma County Ling pointed at Cao Wei and said: "This is the new master of this county, and everyone will work together to benefit the people in the future." Cao Wei, I haven't seen Lord Zhou of the county and Lord Huang of the warden. ”
Cao Wei saluted the two uncles with an unusually respectful expression.
The two also got up and returned the salute, and they were quite surprised, the master is not an ordinary person, this person needs to be mature and steady, improvised, and able to speak well, and become an accident. I usually do important work such as handling case files and liaising with officialdom. But this new master is too young, could it be the junior that Ma Xianling wants to promote?
Ma Xian Ling looked at Cao Wei and said: "The virtuous nephew has a clean background, and he is still a friend of the old man's cousin, and the account books are handed over to you to take care of, and the old man is relieved."
However, the accounts of money and grain are very important, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise when the patrol is checked according to the imperial history, the whole county government will have to take responsibility, do you understand? ”
Ma Xianling's words seem to be said to Cao Wei, but in fact, they are also said to the county officials and the wardens, this is to reassure them that Cao Wei is available.
Moreover, Ma Xianling's weight was obviously increased when he said the last four words, and Cao Wei understood that this was to ask him to hide the accounts that were privately withheld.
Cao Wei hurriedly said yes.
…………
When Cao Wei was about to leave the county office, he was left alone by Ma County.
"Cao Wei, there are some things in the officialdom that you can't do if you don't want to, if I don't do it, what will so many servants below eat, and what will these officials below eat?" Ma Xianling's tone was tired.
Cao Wei was silent, Cao Wei didn't know what to say about such a thing, after a long time, Cao Wei raised his head and said: "The county respect, for the official, the herdsmen are in the world, they will fatten the people and benefit themselves, and the fat people need to be put in front of self-interest, if you can do this, even if you reach out and get something, why not?" ”
Ma Xian Ling looked at Cao Wei silently, and said after a while: "A jar of water in this tank, take a little less with a scoop." ”
"County Honor, students can take water from the river and put it in it, and this tank is always full. The student quit, and there is still soup in the pot at home......"
Ma Xian Ling stared at Cao Wei's back and muttered, "How difficult it is to add water!" ”
