"Yo, Lao Zheng, are you back?"

While Su Hao and Lu Xiu'er were muttering, Zheng Chun and Li Xing had already jumped out of the ox cart and went straight to the county yamen. The official guarding the door saw Zheng Chun and greeted him with a big grin.

Zheng Chun asked, "Old Yao, is the county magistrate in the hall?" ”

"Here, I'm discussing with Master Fang." The official named Lao Yao replied, he looked at the ox cart that sent Zheng Chun and them, and asked, "What, this cart is the Xiucai that the master wants to invite?" ”

"Exactly, is it appropriate for me to take him in now?" Zheng Chun asked.

Yao Ya said: "I'll go and report it first, in case the county master has something important, it's not appropriate for you to bring a sour show to break in." ”

Zheng Chun thanked Yao Yashi, came back and said to Su Hao: "Su Xiucai, the county magistrate is discussing matters in the court, and I will let someone report it." If it's convenient for the county magistrate, I'll take you in again, and I'll bother you to wait here for a while. ”

"Well, it's fine." Su Hao waved his hand disappreciably.

Zheng Chun instructed Su Xiaohu to drive the ox cart to the side of the tree and stay, while Su Hao accompanied Lu Xiu'er to stand on the empty field and look around. Lu Xiu'er came to the gate of the county government for the first time, and she felt fresh when she looked at everything. As a traverser, Su Hao looked at this authentic ancient county town and was also very interested.

After waiting for a little time, I saw that Yao Ya Servant ran out. Zheng Chun hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Old Yao, how is it, is the county free?" ”

"Free, free, Master Fang personally came out to welcome that showman." Yao Yashi said breathlessly.

Zheng Chun looked up and saw that his master Fang Mengjin walked out of the county office with small steps, he hurriedly ran to greet Su Hao, and before Fang Mengjin walked out of the county office, he dragged Su Hao to the door of the county office.

"Master, how dare you move your big driver?" Zheng Chun said to Meng Jin with a smile on his face.

"This is Brother Su Hao, right?" Fang Mengjin didn't pay attention to Zheng Chun, but arched his hand to Su Hao with a smile and said, "Old Fang Mengjin." ”

"Master Fang, the student is none other than Su Hao. Master Lao Fang personally came out to greet him, and the students were inexplicably moved. Su Hao said politely to Fang Mengjin with the etiquette of a junior.

"Listening to Zheng Dian's words, Brother Su's kung fu in surveying the well location is unpredictable, and several high-quality wells have been surveyed one after another to benefit the people. Fang Mengjin threw a high hat that didn't want money on Su Hao's head, this is called a mistake to kill without missing it, hold Su Hao up first.

"Master assists the Lord of Zhixian County, there are many opportunities for the day, the student has just done a little thing, how dare he travel far away? Hearing that the county magistrate had summoned him, the students hurried over, but the road was far away and the time was delayed, and I don't know if the magistrate would blame. Su Hao also said beautiful things.

Zheng Chun was on the side, his mouth pursed as if he had eaten bitter melon. Bullshit, what are you starting to say now that you are afraid that the county magistrate will blame, why don't you say that you still finished changing a stove and went home to drink tea for a long time before coming.

Even Fang Mengjin was polite to Su Hao, Zheng Chun naturally couldn't say anything, he said to Fang Mengjin: "Master, this is not the place to talk, can you invite Su Xiucai inside, I don't know where the county master plans to meet Su Xiucai." ”

"Oh, it's old and confused." Fang Mengjin pretended to pat his head and said, "Little Brother Su is so talented, how can he stand outside and talk, it's rude, rude." Brother Su, let's go in, Lord Zhixian is waiting for you in the second hall. ”

"Okay." Su Hao nodded, he turned around and shouted to Lu Xiu'er, who was standing more than a dozen steps away: "Xiu'er, you and Xiaohu are waiting for me outside, I'll come when I go." ”

"That girl is ......" Fang Mengjin followed Su Hao's gaze and saw Lu Xiu'er, and asked casually.

"Oh, that's the housemate." Su Hao said, "Country girl, I haven't seen the world, I brought her to the county seat to open her eyes." ”

"What a beautiful and lovely girl." Fang Mengjin praised, "Since I brought her here to open her eyes, why don't you let her go in and have a look." The daughter of the magistrate is the same age as Ling Mei, and I believe that the magistrate will also love Ling Mei. ”

"Okay." When Su Hao heard Fang Mengjin's invitation, he didn't feel that there was anything inappropriate. In his opinion, the magistrate is just a department-level cadre, and in his previous life, Su Hao and cadres at this level were both brothers.

"Xiu'er, come here." Su Hao beckoned to Lu Xiu'er and shouted.

Lu Xiu'er looked at several officials beside Su Hao, hesitating and not daring to step forward. Su Hao smiled at Meng Jin and said, "Let Master Fang see it, the country girl has never seen an official, so she is timid." ”

After that, he walked up to Lu Xiu'er, and without saying anything, he took her hand and dragged her over.

"Xiu'er, this is Master Fang." Su Hao introduced to Lu Xiu'er.

"What shall I say?" Lu Xiu'er's face was flushed with embarrassment, and she asked Su Hao in a low voice.

"Haha, don't be formal, the old man is a few years older, Miss Su can call the old man Uncle Fang." Fang Mengjin pretended to be an amiable old man and said to Lu Xiu'er. He heard Su Hao call Lu Xiuer a "sister", so he thought that Lu Xiuer was also surnamed Su.

"Xiu'er, you should be called Uncle Fang." Su Hao didn't say anything polite to Fang Mengjin, and directly instructed Lu Xiu'er like this.

Lu Xiu'er blushed and shouted "Uncle Fang" in an inaudible voice, Fang Mengjin laughed, stretched out his hand to Su Haoyi and said, "Little Brother Su, please." ”

"Master Fang, please first." Su Hao replied.

The group walked towards the county office, and Lu Xiuer was involuntarily pulled by Su Hao and entered the county office. When he walked into the county office, Su Hao didn't need to pull Lu Xiu'er's hand anymore, because Lu Xiu'er was so frightened that she grabbed Su Hao's clothes tightly with her two hands, her eyes looked at the ground, and she didn't dare to come out.

Fengcheng County Ya is very large, enter from the gate, there is a long road, in front of the instrument gate, archway, platform, and then the county government hall. On both sides of the road, there are six rooms for the officials and soldiers, as well as the history office, the fast class room, the official house, the prison, the shrine and so on.

All of these are only the first half of the county office, and behind the lobby there are buildings such as the county office, the main thin office, the cabinet library, the second hall, the third hall, and the account room. After that, there is the inner government, that is, the residence of the magistrate.

Fang Mengjin took the Su Hao brothers and sisters through the lobby and came to the second hall, which was the place where the county received guests. Zheng Chun and Li Xing were no longer qualified to follow, they returned to their official quarters, waiting to be summoned at any time.

"My lord, Su Hao has already arrived."

Outside the second hall, Fang Mengjin asked Su Hao's brothers and sisters to wait first, and then went to the door to report by himself.

"Please." The voice of the magistrate came from the house.

Fang Mengjin came out of the curtain and said to Su Hao: "Two, the county magistrate is invited." ”

"I'm ......" Lu Xiu'er looked at Su Hao, the expression on her face as if she was about to cry. The people inside are the county magistrates, she is a country girl, how dare she go in.

"Let's go, it's okay." Su Hao dragged Lu Xiu'er and dragged her into the second hall.

The furnishings in the second hall of the county government are no different from the living room of the ordinary landlord and the old rich man. On the wall facing the gate, there is a landscape painting, in front of which are two Taishi chairs, and there is a coffee table in the middle, which is where the host and the VIP sit. There is a row of seats on each side, and there is also a small coffee table between each two seats, which is where the subordinates sit when they meet their masters.

When Su Hao and Lu Xiu'er walked into the second hall, the county magistrate Han Wen was sitting upright on the main seat, and when he saw Su Hao and them coming in, he stood up with a smile and took two symbolic steps forward to greet them. Of course, Su Hao couldn't put on a score in front of the magistrate, he took two steps, came to the front of the magistrate, and saluted: "Student Su Hao, see Lord Zhixian." ”

"Excuse me, excuse me." Han Wen bowed his hand to Su Hao and returned the salute.

"My lord, this is Su Hao's sister, Miss Su Xiu'er." Fang Mengjin introduced Lu Xiu'er to Hangul.

Su Hao hurriedly corrected: "Oh, I forgot to say just now, the housemate is the adopted daughter of my family, and she has a different surname from the student, her surname is Lu." ”

After that, he said to Lu Xiu'er: "Xiu'er, come over and see Lord Zhixian." ”

"Min...... The folk girl Lu Xiu'er saw the county master. ”

Lu Xiuer has finally listened to a few scenes, and she still remembers a little bit of the drama. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Han Wen, stumbling to finish her words.

"Haha, no need to be polite." Han Wen said with a smile, and he said to Fang Mengjin: "Master, I think this Lu girl is about the same age as Qian'er, right?" The country girl is stronger than Qian'er. ”

Fang Mengjin smiled and said: "My lord, Brother Su said that his sister has not been through the world much, and he wants to take her out to see the world, so I took it upon myself to ask her to come in." ”

"Good come, good come." Han Wen said, he slapped twice outside the door, and a person who looked like a girl ring came in, and Han Wen explained to her: "Red Lotus, you take Miss Lu to the inner office to see Mrs. and Miss, and let Miss Lu accompany Miss Lu to play in the back garden, so that Miss Lu will not be restrained here." ”

"Yes." The girl named Red Lotus came over, blessed Lu Xiu'er, and said, "Miss Lu, please." ”

"Shall I go?" Lu Xiu'er was so nervous that she didn't dare to catch her breath, and asked Su Hao in a low voice.

Su Hao pushed a palm on her shoulder and said, "Go ahead, go open your eyes, and go back to brag to your female companions." ”
