Chapter 218: The Wolf Is Coming

Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Zhenlei asked Pony to drive outside the town to inform Ma Xiaoshuang to gather the tent and luggage and rush to the town office, and Pony took the order. Here, Xiao Zhenlei ordered a few soldiers to start cleaning up every house in the town office.

Ma Xiaoshuang quickly rushed over with the guard platoon and reported to Xiao Zhenlei: "Report to the chief, the guard platoon has brought it, please instruct the chief!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei pointed to a circle of houses in the town office and said: "From now on, we will live here, you take the brothers to clean up the house together, lay out the bedding and luggage, and clean the yard, and clean up a house and an office for me alone, and then move the tables, chairs and benches outside, and when someone will bring the food over, after eating, you have to arrange for someone to be on duty at the door and someone to patrol the office, you can't be careless at any time, start doing it!" ”

"Yes, sir!" After Ma Xiaoshuang saluted, he immediately beckoned the guards and soldiers who were lining up behind him to clean up the house and clean up.

When Ma Xiaoshuang and the others finished cleaning, it was already dark, but at this time, He Hanlin happened to bring some family members to drive a few carriages over, and the carriage contained a lot of food boxes and large wooden barrels and wine jars, the food boxes were naturally filled with dishes, the big wooden barrels were steamed white rice, and the wine jars were filled with liquor.

"Oh, I'm really embarrassed to ask Mayor He to bring someone over. Excuse me! Xiao Zhenlei greeted him with a smile.

This attitude made He Hanlin a little unsure of Xiao Zhenlei's thoughts, and he looked like he was going to kill if he didn't cooperate. Why are you smiling now? This changes face too quickly, right? It's no wonder that you can achieve the standard at a young age, and there are very few people who can change their faces and have a thick skin! He hurriedly pretended to be flattered: "Oops. The standard is too polite, too polite, the villain should do something for the adult, it should be! ”

After speaking, He Hanlin turned his head and shouted to the family members next to several carriages: "What are you doing in a daze? Bring all the food in and put it on the table! ”

The family members listened to He Hanlin's angry shouts, and immediately moved the food boxes, rice buckets and wine jars into the town office one by one. Xiao Zhenlei couldn't let all these family members work, he beckoned Ma Xiaoshuang to bring in all the soldiers who didn't need to be on duty and patrol to help, how much can more than 30 people eat, can they use so many people? Xiao Zhenlei is actually just putting on a show.

When the food, wine, jars, bowls and chopsticks were placed on a few tables, and the courtyard of the town office had been lit up by the soldiers, and the public office was brightly lit, He Hanlin felt that he had nothing to do, so he said goodbye to Xiao Zhenlei: "My lord, since the wine and food have been delivered." I think the adults and these military masters are also hungry, so the adults and military masters should hurry up to the table, and the villain will leave a few family members here to wait for the adults to finish eating and clean up the dishes, and the villain will not bother. Farewell, farewell! ”

Xiao Zhenlei grabbed him and said, "Oh, Mayor He, what are you doing here?" Now that the food and drinks are on the table, they are all on the table. Why, you have to eat it and go back, don't you? If you let you leave like this, people who don't know will think that I, Xiao, don't know how to count. I let you go away when I was about to eat, what do you let others think of me? Come on, come on. Today I am borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and treat you with the wine and food you brought! ”

He Hanlin was pulled onto the table by Xiao Zhenlei involuntarily, seeing this situation, he also knew that he couldn't leave, so he could only eat here and go back, but carefully, it seems that this standard system surnamed Xiao is actually not difficult to get along with, and it is not bad to have a good relationship with this standard system, as long as these Qiu Ba are full of food and drink, don't go crazy drunk, so he half pushed and half followed Xiao Zhenlei to sit at a table.

Everyone didn't move the chopsticks after they were on the table, Xiao Zhenlei didn't speak, and the others didn't dare to move the chopsticks first, Xiao Zhenlei took the wine jar and opened the seal to prepare He Hanlin to pour wine, He Hanlin looked at what kind of line this is? He hurriedly snatched the wine jar and said, "Oh, isn't this a villain?" I'm coming, I'm coming! ”

After pouring a bowl of wine for everyone on the table, He Hanlin picked up the wine bowl and got up and said to Xiao Zhenlei: "Lord Biaotong, today you are here for the first time, the villain is not well-informed enough, and he did not bring people to greet him in time, it is really the villain's sin, and I don't know if these drinks and dishes are prepared in a hurry I don't know if it suits the appetite of the adults and the military masters, this bowl of villains respects the adults and the military masters, the villain does it first as respect, the adults and the military masters are at will, at will!" ”

When he said this, everyone who listened to it felt comfortable, and Xiao Zhenlei also felt that He Hanlin could be the mayor of the town or really have some ability, but this ability to speak is not something that ordinary people have.

After He Hanlin finished speaking, he gulped wine into his mouth, Xiao Zhenlei smiled when he saw him finish drinking: "Mayor He is too polite, in the future, the brothers will have to rely on Mayor He to help him a lot here, since Mayor He has toasted, then my brothers and I will naturally appreciate it!" Brothers, they all took up the wine bowl, thanked Mayor He for his hospitality, and dried it in one gulp, but after drinking this bowl, they were not allowed to drink it again, dry! ”

"!" Everyone got up and made a bowl together.

Xiao Zhenlei put down the wine bowl and said to He Hanlin; "Mayor He, how about introducing us to this precious dish? How to eat, tell us about it, and let us know how to eat it! ”

He Hanlin readily agreed, so he began to introduce the dishes on the table one by one, the topic of eating this meal was naturally lively, and it was not over until midnight, of course, the soldiers didn't eat for so long, they had already left the table, some were literate and studied, some were tired and went to bed early, and some were arranged to be on duty and patrol.

He Hanlin returned home drunk, and when he was about to rest, he suddenly figured out that he was fooled by Xiao Zhenlei, Xiao Zhenlei wanted to borrow the town office and the ancestral halls of the major families in the town to give the soldiers as a temporary shelter, he was forced to agree, but he reluctantly agreed, and just now at the wine table, Xiao Zhenlei mentioned the matter again, he actually called Xiao Zhenlei a brother, patted his chest to ensure that there was no problem at all, He also swore that he could persuade the big families to agree to lend their ancestral halls.

You must know that the ancestral hall is the resting place of the ancestors' souls, and those big families are willing to lend it to those Qiu Ba to live? He estimated that if he went to tell those big families about it, those big families would definitely fight with him!

Thinking of this, He Hanlin was shocked into a cold sweat, and the wine woke up, he couldn't sit still anymore, walking back and forth in the room, the old woman turned over on the couch and saw him like an ant on a hot pot, so she asked: "I said what's wrong with you?" Lost your money? ”

He Hanlin said impatiently: "It would be nice if I just threw some silver, this time the matter is very troublesome!" ”

"What's going on?"

"I'll tell you, you can't help, okay, you go to sleep first, I'll go out and think of a way!"

An hour later, many people came to He Hanlin's house, all of whom were the heads of the big families in the town, including the directors of the town board of directors, the members of the council, and the officials of the town office and the landlords and gentry, among whom Liu Wancai was impressively listed.

At this time, Liu Wancai yawned and said: "I said Lao He, what the hell is going on, what are you calling us over for the middle of the night, it's very cold outside!" ”

He Hanlin saw that everyone was looking at him, and he immediately said: "Today, there is a vanguard of soldiers and horses in our town, and from now on, we will be stationed in our Nanqiao Town!" ”

Hearing him say this, the inspector Xu Honghai nodded and said: "I know this matter, it is the 46th standard of the 23rd Mixed Association of the New Army, and in the afternoon, the prefect also sent someone to come to me to talk about this matter, let us provoke those new troops less, people are not easy to provoke, I came to your house to find you later, but your family said that you went out, I will leave first, thinking that it will be the same for you tomorrow, you came to us to talk about this matter?" They're coming, they're coming, as long as we don't provoke them, what the are you? ”

He Hanlin stomped his feet and said hurriedly: "Ouch, sometimes it's not that you don't look for trouble, and things don't look for you!" This afternoon I sat at home and didn't do anything, this disaster fell from the sky, the man who guarded the door of the public office came to tell me that the town office came to the official, let me hurry over, I went over to see, it was indeed a big official, but it was some big soldiers, hey, the leader was Biao Tong in front of me to levy the town office to make a temporary station for his subordinate Qiu Ba, saying that they would move away when their military camp was repaired, and his brigade had not yet arrived, and after a few days of arrival, the town office would definitely not be able to live, Therefore, I want to borrow your ancestral ancestral hall to make a temporary residence for those soldiers. ”

Ren Anzhi, the general director of the board of directors of the town autonomous office, sighed faintly when he heard this: "The wolf is coming! This always peaceful Nanqiao Town is only afraid that it will be restless from now on! ”

Liu Wancai stared at He Hanlin and asked, "Have you promised to lend the town office and our ancestral halls to those Qiu Bazhu?" ”

He Hanlin smiled bitterly: "It's not a question of whether I promise or not, when I went, they had already cleaned up in the town office, when Xiao Biaotong told me, that fierce look, I was afraid that if I didn't agree, he would pull out a gun and give me peanuts to eat, everyone, it's not that I, He Hanlin, want to harm you, let you lend out the ancestral ancestral hall for them to live, but I am still old, young and young, I can't die, I can only agree first!" ”

When everyone heard this, a landlord and gentry took a few steps back and said with a sad face: "It's over, it's over, after letting those Qiu Ba live in, our ancestral hall will definitely be made into a miasma, doesn't this make the ancestors' spirits in the sky unable to live in peace?"
