Spring to summer solstice, autumn to winter, in the blink of an eye to February of the following year, Li Yanqing has been in charge of Jiayu County for a year, since last year after the extermination of the river thief black-hearted dragon king, Zhang Shun also disappeared without a trace, the middle reaches of the Yangtze River no longer have the river thief harassment, passenger and cargo transportation is getting busier and busier, as an important port of the Yangtze River Jiayu County, both commerce and shipping have become more prosperous.

The property seized from the hands of the black-hearted dragon king, except for the grain and ships left to Ezhou, the rest of the gold and silver money were all handed over to the inner treasury by Wang Boyan, Zhao Jilongyan Yan Dayue, Wang Boyan was promoted to the prefect of Yingtianfu, Li Yanqing was meritorious in suppressing bandits, promoted to the first level, from the founding baron to the founding viscount of the fifth grade, and rewarded a pair of purple gold fish bags.

Although Wang Boyan was hated by the states for handing over his property and asking for credit, everyone was helpless, and the grain and boats left behind became the objects of contention among the states and counties, Li Yanqing fought hard and got 300 ships, Li Yanqing left more than 10 ships for official use, and the rest of the ships were rewarded to the big donors who donated money and materials in this crackdown on bandits.

With the passage of time, the story of the bandits gradually disappeared in people's mouths, in the autumn everyone began to pay attention to the imperial examination, the autumn passed, the imperial examination was no longer concerned, people began to wait excitedly for the New Year, with the end of the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month, the breath of the New Year gradually disappeared, and the spring ploughing season came.

In the fields east of Jiayu County, you can see the busy figure of spring ploughing everywhere, in the Song Zhenzong period, the Champa rice with high yield, drought tolerance and can be harvested twice a year has been promoted in the states of the south of the Yangtze River, so after the beginning of spring, irrigation and transplanting in the rice field has become the largest scenery in Jiayu County.

As a local county magistrate, persuading farmers is one of Li Yanqing's duties, he must personally go down to the field to cultivate, this afternoon, in the county seat 20 miles away in the official field, Li Yanqing is leading the county officials and officials to plant rice in the field, he wears a short coat, trousers are rolled high on the thigh, holding a handful of seedlings in his hand keeps retreating, he is young and strong, skillful movements, the speed of rice planting far exceeds the county lieutenant Zhou Ping next to him.

Zhou Ping wiped the sweat on his forehead, straightened his sore waist and said to Li Yanqing: "The county gentleman is very skilled in rice planting!" ”

Li Yanqing smiled, "When I was a child, I had to go to the ground to plant rice every year, which can be regarded as an old style!" ”

"Are there rice fields over there in Xiangzhou?"

"Yes, but not much, the dry field is wheat and millet rotation, the paddy field is wheat and rice rotation, our village is close to the Yongji Canal, the water source is abundant, so it is wheat and rice rotation, but it is not spring, but after the summer harvest to plant rice, the same as fighting, men, women and children have to go into battle."

Zhou Ping slapped his back again and said with a smile: "County Jun, go have a drink when you return to the city!" I'm in for a treat. ”

Zhou Ping's eldest son opened a restaurant in the county last year, and the business was very good, which also greatly facilitated Zhou Ping's alcohol addiction.

"Since you're in for a treat, then you're welcome."

As soon as Li Yanqing finished speaking, he saw several ox carts driving on the official road in the distance, Li Yanqing hurriedly put down the seedlings, and didn't bother to wash his feet, so he walked quickly to the ox cart.

In the ox cart sat his family and a few maids, they went to the front of Bao Yan Zhai Baihua Villa to enjoy the flowers, Bao Yan Zhai rented 5,000 acres of official land in Jiayu County last year to plant flowers, a few days ago 5,000 acres of red and blue flowers and other flowers together in anger, beautiful, suddenly became the largest scenic spot in Jiayu County, the county old and young have gone out of the city to enjoy the flowers.

Today, Li Yanqing came to Guantian to plant seedlings, and Cao Yun, Sisi, and Qing'er took more than a dozen maids and daughters-in-law to take two ox carts to the manor to enjoy the flowers and go to the manor. Why don't you take me with you? ”

Cao Yun covered her mouth and smiled: "Where did this mud leg come from, and he dared to tease the officials?" ”

Sisi blinked, "Yun Niang, why do I think this person is a little familiar?" ”

Qing'er next to him also couldn't help laughing: "He looks a bit like the eldest brother, but he is more obscene than the eldest brother, you see that he is wearing a pair of black socks on his feet!" ”

The three girls laughed together, and Li Yanqing said angrily: "I refuse to give a sip of water, and I am so happy." ”

Cao Yun hurriedly handed him the kettle, "How many days do you have to plant?" ”

"It's been three days of planting, and today is the last day."

Li Yanqing drank the kettle to the bottom, wiped his mouth and asked them, "Have you fun going to Baihua Villa?" ”

Cao Yun nodded, "It's really beautiful there, it's a sea of flowers, and the manor also has a special place to enjoy flowers, which is crowded with people from the county to see the flowers." ”

"You're going to squeeze too?"

Sisi shook his head and smiled: "How can we squeeze, there are special people to take us in to enjoy the flowers, Yang Xiancheng's wife and Zhou County's wife and daughter also entered the villa with us, by the way, Qing'er also met acquaintances." ”

"Qing'er, who have you met?"

Hu Qing'er pursed her lips and smiled: "I met Aunt Gu!" ”

"Ahh Aunt Gu is also here? ”

"She is in Jiangxia County, and today she is here to be responsible for picking flowers, and the third aunt said that she is going to recruit two hundred flower picking girls in Jiayu County, please help you, the county gentleman."

"How much does she pay?"

"Three hundred wen a day, a total of ten days."

"That's a good income!"

Li Yanqing said with a smile: "Ten days is three thousand yuan, which is equivalent to a month's income of an ordinary person, do you still need my help?" ”

"You spread the word!"

"Alright! I'll go back and let people spread the word. ”

At this time, Cao Yun smiled again and asked, "Will the husband come back for dinner in the evening?" ”

Li Yanqing scratched his head, "Why do you ask that?" ”

Cao Yun smiled lightly, "Today's last day of ploughing is over, aren't you going to have a drink?" ”

"I really want to go, County Lieutenant Zhou invited me to drink."

"Then let's go, don't come back too late in the evening."

Li Yanqing nodded, and the ox cart slowly started and drove towards the county seat.......

Since Li Yanqing took office and sold the land in front of the City God Temple, in just two months, a new tile shop covering an area of nearly 50 acres appeared in the middle of the county, although the county government named it Zhongxian Tile, but the people of Jiayu County prefer to call it the City God Temple Tile, and the superior geographical location made it soon become the new commercial center of the entire Jiayu County.

The gate of the tile shop and the gate of the city god temple are together, one is in the east and the other is in the west, enter the tile shop, there are a variety of small shops in it, there are as many as two hundred, many small shops are only the size of a point, sell all kinds of gadgets, eat, wear and play, there are everything, there is a special stage for selling artists, there are all kinds of juggling every day, attracting a large number of people to watch.

In addition, the open space in front of the City God Temple has become the world of small stalls and vendors, and it is not allowed to set up stalls here during the day, but as soon as the sky is dark, a large number of small stalls and vendors will occupy the open space, shouting and shouting, and they will be busy until dawn before closing the stalls.

Zhou Ping got two cheap pieces of land, he put the two pieces of land together, and his son built the largest restaurant in Jiayu County, called Sihai Restaurant, covering an area of three acres, located at the entrance of the tile shop, the front is the East Street, and the business is very prosperous every day.

At dusk, Li Yanqing and Zhou Ping, as well as Mo Jun and Liu Fang, came to the restaurant for dinner, and the county Cheng Yang Ju went to the state on a business trip and has not returned, today is also the last day of the three-day persuasion of farming, although the scribes and officials are tired, they also meet to go to various restaurants in the county to drink.

Li Yanqing treats his subordinates well, although it is very hard to plow the fields, but each person can get a subsidy of 500 yuan per day, and everyone is also tired and willing.

In a private room on the second floor of the restaurant, the four of them sat in front of the window and drank, and the bartender kept coming in to serve them food. ”

"Probably not! Why did Brother Mo say that? ”

Mo Jun pointed at the fish and smiled: "Every time I come here to eat, I have to order the scallion fried sauce saury here, but the taste of this fish is not right today?" ”

"Could it be that the fish is not fresh?" Zhou Ping asked with a frown.

"No, it's a bit spicy!"

"I'll try it!" Li Yanqing also tasted the fish and said with a smile: "The taste hasn't changed!" It's the same as before, I know, you must have eaten this garlic raw fish just now. ”

Li Yanqing pointed to a plate of sashimi mixed with garlic paste next to him, Mo Jun thought about it and said embarrassedly: "It seems to be the case, I said that my mouth is so spicy!" ”

Everyone laughed together, but Zhou Ping didn't comply, and seized this opportunity to punish three glasses of wine, Mo Jun had to drink three glasses in a row, the wine was a little up, just looked at the little lady who was singing a little song next to him and smirked.

At this time, the door suddenly opened, and Li Yanqing's little maid Xu Wuxiao ran in in a panic, "Official, the second lady asked you to go back quickly." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Madame has been unwell since she came back, Miss Hu went to ask Dr. Jiang Ming to check the pulse, and Dr. Jiang said.... Said ....." She looked at the other three, a little afraid to say,

Li Yanqing frowned, "What did Doctor Jiang say?" ”

Xu Wu's little lady whispered to Li Yanqing in her ear: "Doctor Jiang said that it is very likely to be a happy pulse!" ”

"Ahh

Li Yanqing stood up suddenly, he was overjoyed, he hurriedly clasped his fists at the three of them and smiled: "You continue to drink, I'll go home and take a look, maybe Madame is happy." ”

The three of them hurriedly got up to congratulate, Li Yanqing was so excited, he and Cao Yun have been married for a year, Cao Yun has not been pregnant, and has been taking medicine to recuperate in the past few months, but finally heard the good news today, he turned around and hurried home.

"Officials wait for me!" Xu Wu's little lady chased after her in a panic,
