What Qi Tian didn't expect was that the county lord was already waiting at the door to greet him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing Qi Tian appear, he instantly gave Qi Tian a bear hug, and laughed and said, "Brother Qi, this case is thanks to you!" ”

was suddenly hugged by the county lord, Qi Tian was really surprised, so much so that he was embarrassed to be hugged.

Soon, the county adults let go of Qi Tian, and walked into the county office with Qi Tian shoulder to shoulder, and talked and laughed all the way.

It's just that the county lord took Qi Tian to the back hall, and after sitting down, he chuckled and said, "Brother Qi, thanks to your help last night." As for you, don't be in a hurry to leave, let your sister-in-law cook you two specialty dishes, and let's have a drink. ”

The prefectural lord said as he took something from his sleeve.

Qi Tian didn't take the actions of the county adults to heart, but thought that people in this period were not ranked according to age, and the difference of twenty years was actually called brothers.

What's more, most of the people Qi Tian met were civilian officials, and military attachés like Zhang Xietong could understand, like this one in front of him, Yan Chong, Qiu Mingyuan, Lord Hao of Liaoyuan, and even Hou Tianzheng, they were all commensurate with Qi Tian as brothers, but they didn't know that their children were just the same age as Qi Tian, which was very embarrassing.

Qi Tian chuckled and said: "Don't bother the county lord's wife, there are still important things to do in the next rush to Liaoyuan, thank you for your kindness, I really understand it in the next place." ”

The voice fell slightly, only to see the county lord take out a pile of paper and hand it to Qi Tian, Qi Tian didn't understand what it meant, but before he could ask, the county lord said: "This is the rich man's house deed, land deed, and list of money, food and goods, you can take a look." ”

Qi Tian knew what the other party meant, but he pretended not to understand, so he said, "My lord, what are you?" ”

"Brother, just now my brother said more than once that this case is thanks to you, so that my brother can gain a foothold in Nong'an County in the future, and this is all your credit."

After finishing speaking, he took a sip of tea and continued: "You and Yan Chong also know each other, and our brothers are not outsiders, this is my brother's gratitude to you." ”

Immediately afterwards, he looked around and said, "The first time I did this kind of thing, I was flustered, your brother and I are a good official." However, your brother is also a person who will repay his kindness, so you must take these. ”

Before the words fell, he knelt down for Qi Tianxia.

Qi Tian was the most annoyed and knelt down at every turn, so he was about to help him up, but the county lord said, "If you don't agree, I won't get up." ”

If you don't get up again, Qi Tianju is speechless.

"Brother, I promise you, I'll take these things."

The voice fell slightly, and he looked at the county lord who got up very seriously, and then said: "It's just, I took these things, how can I explain them?" ”

Seeing Qi Tian receiving it, the county lord didn't mention how happy he was, so he said: "Brother, you would never have imagined that this rich man has been a rich man for three generations, and his family is very fat, and you are only one-fifth of these, and I am also afraid, so I don't dare to take too much." ”

After finishing speaking, he chuckled and said, "There are two hundred bags of grain, which will be pulled to Houjiaji for you overnight." ”

When Qi Tian heard this, he pretended to refuse, but saw that the county lord hurriedly interrupted and said: "I know that you will not agree, the convoy transporting grain has already left before dawn, and there is no need to worry about bandits, it is on the official road." ”

Qi Tian was speechless, and then hugged the county adult without saying a word.

Facing Qi Tian's active embrace, the county adults were particularly happy.

……

In the morning, it was more than halfway through.

Qi Tian, Xiuyan, Saren, Cui San, and the injured Wan Banlazi packed their bags, left the Yuelai Inn and went straight to the city gate.

For Wan Ban Lazi, just when Qi Tian rushed to the county office, he borrowed a horse from Cui San and went home, told Qi Tian about saving him, and told his poor parents to go to Houjiaji.

Although the family is poor, they all know how to repay their kindness, so their parents agreed to follow Qi Tian with half a child.

When she borrowed a horse to go home, Xiuyan gave her twenty taels of silver, but she didn't want it, and she didn't dare to ask for anything from Engong.

Later, after Wan Ban Lazi left, the county lord found a landlord's house for his parents to do farm work, and the landlord knew Qi Tian's reputation and was naturally willing to take him in.

When Qi Tian and others led their horses to the city gate, the villagers on the road said goodbye, and sent Qi Tian and others a variety of agricultural and sideline products, fruits and wines, etc., because the villagers were too enthusiastic, Qi Tian was helpless to accept only two kinds of thirst-quenching fruits.

However, because there were too many villagers on the road, they were all reluctant to leave Qi Tian, and it only took two quarters of an hour, but when Qi Tian and the others walked to the city gate, it had already used up an hour.

Looking at Qi Tian who walked in front of him, the county lord said reluctantly: "Look, look at it, how the villagers treat you, I haven't been treated like this for so long." ”

At this time, Qi Tian did not answer when he heard it, but bowed deeply to the villagers, and the audience instantly quieted down, and then said loudly: "In Xia Qitian, thank you for the care of the villagers, because you have an urgent matter to go to Liaoyuan Mansion, I can only be sorry for the villagers, I will definitely come again if I have the opportunity in the future, and I also hope that everyone will have the opportunity to go to Houjiaji in Tonghua County." ”

After speaking, Qi Tian bowed deeply again.

Immediately afterwards, he turned his head to look at the county lord, leaned into his ear and whispered: "As long as you do practical things for the people, think about everyone everywhere, you understand." ”

After the words fell, Qi Tian waved goodbye to the villagers.

Then, Qi Tian and his entourage went out of the city gate, all the way to the east, and went straight to Liaoyuan Mansion.

Qi Tian walked out of the city gate, the county lord and many villagers were quietly watching, and soon someone shouted: "Farewell to Lord Qi, gongs and drums sounded!" ”

After the words, many villagers began to dance dragons and lions, twist Yangge, gongs and drums, and firecrackers, just to get rid of the rich man Zhang who oppressed the poor people.

Qi Tian and his group of five people began to speed up their way when they left the gate of Nong'an County, just at noon, in order to rush to Huaide County before dark.

Soon, Qi Tian and his entourage, who had been running all the way, rested three times on the road, and arrived at a village called "Nanshan Village" in the middle of the afternoon, which was two quarters of an hour's distance from the county seat, and went east along the small river, so that they could arrive in Liaoyuan Mansion before sunset the next day.

Looking at the village in front of them, Qi Tian and his party slowed down.

In fact, Qi Tian didn't plan to take this road, but half an hour ago, he happened to see deep ruts on the road and a little grain scattered on the ground.

Looking at the sunset sprinkled across the sky, Qi Tian sincerely admired: "Tomorrow is another sunny day!" ”

After finishing speaking, he said to Xiuyan and Saren beside him: "The village in front of you will take a break and strive to rush to Huaide before dark." ”

The voice fell slightly, and Cui San on the side whispered, "Captain, something may be wrong." ”

Hearing this, Qi Tian suddenly saw a tree appear in the middle of the road, but the corners of his mouth immediately rose.

A tree?
