Protect his face......

Qi You responded with a light smile and sighed in his heart. This is not necessarily, according to this old man's usual temperament, he will only feel that his last bit of face is given by the junior he has always looked down on, even if everyone doesn't know why he took the initiative to resign, he himself can regret shame and be angry.

He no longer looked at the old man who was frozen in place, and called Cheng Zhong and a few people in the courtyard next door, took the list, and went to the official kiln on the outskirts of the town to inform the officials who inspected to take down a cadre according to the list, and escorted them in the official kiln first, and today's work will be done at this time.

Tomorrow there will be rewards and punishments in parallel.

As for this Qi steward, the deed of sale is at the outsider's place, so he will send it back to make this matter clear and clear, and his own master will dispose of it.

"Steward Qiu, let's send Mr. Cheng over first, and I don't have to mention the matter in this courtyard to others, just say that Mr. Cheng came to visit."

Steward Qiu naturally understood, and knew that it was time to send this old man away, so he sent Liu Yi into the front porch first, and then sent him to the outskirts of the town to be locked up with others. called someone again and sent Old Man Cheng into the carriage half-supported and half-coerced.

After these few people left in the courtyard, Qi You showed a sincere smile again, and saluted the two clan elders: "The two clan grandfathers have never been here since the day Qi You got married. ”

The two old men are not twisted, so they naturally responded.

As soon as the front yard quieted down, the family in the back yard also understood that this was over.

Aunt Cai and Father Li, who took care of Cai's family, came from the backyard and met with the village chief.

A few people only laughed and didn't start the matter in advance, so this unpleasant thing was naturally forgotten early.

After having a harmonious dinner, Qi Youcai asked someone to send the three elders away, and Zhigao, who was followed by Ah Rong Ah Ren and Guo Zhanpeng, also came back by moonlight and took his grandparents and in-laws away.

Before leaving, the old village chief took Qi You's hand and said solemnly: "He asked for resignation, and the people next to him can hide it, and several clan elders can't hide it. ”

Qi You looked at the three old grandfathers helplessly, and said with relief: "Grandpa don't worry, I am now the county commander, and I should take care of this matter. ”

Hearing him say this, the three old men were also relieved, patted him on the shoulder, and said no more.

Deal with it tomorrow, and then wait for the old man to take the initiative to resign, and this place on the outskirts of the town will be too peaceful.

After sending a few people away, an official messenger came to report that the twelve replacement workers in the official kiln had been taken down, and the other eleven people except Liu Yi were also arrested in various places in the streets and alleys to the cave, and many people were now sent to guard there. At the beginning, in order not to startle the snake, Qi You and Zhixing did not explain to all the officials, but today this matter was suddenly revealed, and the remaining officials were so angry that they hurriedly took a few mouthfuls for dinner, and stayed in front of these 20 people, and asked about every move. It shows how terrified these people who are being imprisoned should be.

The other uninformed people in the cave were informed by a group of homeless people who knew and secretly investigated, and at first hearing this, the rest of the workers were all angry.

"I'll just say that the progress of the cave in Xiaoliangshan, where my brother works, is much faster than ours, we have only built most of the frame, and it is time for Xiaoliangshan to finish!"

"It's not these sneaky things! I see how to punish them after being found out by the adults today! ”

Looking for people and arresting people everywhere near the streets and alleys, they didn't avoid the county residents, and they knew what was going on as soon as they inquired smartly.

After inquiring, many people shook their heads in fright, this broad daylight, in front of the official mission, these people are eating the bear's heart and the leopard dare to calculate so much, how can there be any life! Thinking of the noon today, Uncle Liu escorted his own son over, isn't this Liu Yi working in the official kiln on the outskirts of the town! I'm afraid he has a part in it! Otherwise, how could Uncle Liu be so angry, and he would send his son over in public to lose face.

The suburbs of the town suddenly poured into a lot of people who watched the excitement, and from a distance, a large number of officials in the official kiln were strictly guarded, and they were all serious.

From afar, the county residents can also recognize Cheng Xingcheng Wang and a group of familiar faces. Who in the town and several surrounding townships didn't know which people had reported the quota quickly, and they said words of envy in their hearts, but now when they saw it, they naturally knew which people had come up to top the quota.

"These boys, they are all idle on weekdays, and now they have kicked the iron plate." The villagers seemed to breathe, and they didn't have a good face for these people.

Looking at the posture of this group of officials and guards, I am afraid that these 20 or so people are going to suffer......

In the evening, the housekeeper who sent the Qi steward to the house of the Wai Lang also came back, and the housekeeper of the Wai Lang family came with him, and he knelt on the ground and made amends, saying that the family was not strictly guarded, and such a thing happened, the Wai Lang was very old, and his son was studying elsewhere, and there was no one in charge of the family to make this steward take advantage of the loophole, and the deed of sale of Cheng Xing Cheng Wang had been drafted by him, and he had also changed his surname back to Qi, and then pressed the handprint after Qi You's disposal.

The housekeeper's face was sincere, and he seemed to have been fooled by Steward Qi, and Qi You didn't want to be embarrassed, so he naturally agreed.

Early the next morning, the whole county got up earlier than usual, and many people didn't often go out on weekdays. He also left a slight crack in the door, so that the sound of outside could be heard. The street was full of people coming and going, talking in groups.

There are many people who have already gathered at the official kiln.

Although the workers were asked to go back early yesterday because of the arrest, they also let it go and said that they had to come early today, and the adults had something to order. Therefore, early in the morning, dozens of workers, plus the onlookers and villagers, plus those who heard the news from the next county and came to investigate, it was just dawn, and the suburbs of the town were already very lively.

With sharp eyes, I immediately saw Liu Abel who was standing at the front and didn't know when he came over, he looked tired, and he didn't have the spirit of his usual days at all, which showed that he had been greatly hit.

At this time, the people next to him didn't dare to appease more, for fear that one would accidentally poke someone's heart and lungs, and make him even more sad.

didn't ask this group of people to wait long, at the other end of the road on the outskirts of the town, Qi You Zhixing came over, followed by the remaining group of officials, and there were four people behind the officials, looking at the subordinates of Cheng Liu's two families, each holding a wooden plate covered with red silk cloth in their hands.

Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by the red silk cloth, and they all guessed what was underneath. I'm here to deal with these 20 people, isn't there a rope punishment in this plate? But these two adults are not the ones who are tortured in public, is it difficult to give a few warnings to the surroundings?

Although it was crowded with people, seeing that Qi You Zhixing was coming, everyone didn't dare to crowd, and hurriedly made a way.

There is something important to deal with today, and the villagers are not good at laughing, and they don't dare to disturb the two adults, so they are silent on the side after their debut, and they are still looking at the four wooden plates with their eyes.

In this open area on the outskirts of the town, there is a row of newly built houses in the east, the displaced people who fled two years ago have formed a village of their own, a private kiln in the west, an official kiln that is about to be completed, and there are many stalls in the middle of this vacant land, which has gradually formed a small market. However, the daily needs of several surrounding townships do not have to go to the town, which is very convenient.

This is a world away from two years ago.

Qi You and Zhixing glanced around, feeling a little satisfied, the busyness in the past few months has been somewhat fruitful.

Seeing the two adults coming, several officials immediately came up to ask for instructions, and after asking for instructions, the 20-odd people who had been locked up all night could finally be released, a group of people were lazy and lazy, and ordinary people under the sun could see the lazy bones inside.

"This group of second-rate bastards is hidden inside, and I'm afraid this official kiln won't be built in another month......

Many of the other workers were angry, and they couldn't help but scold: "We are working non-stop here, for fear that it will be difficult for adults to do it slowly, you are good, every day is cheating and slippery, and the other three official kilns are almost built, let's talk about the whole month here!" ”

The actual process in this official kiln is only known to these workers who are actually working hard, and because of this, they are even more disgusted with these people.

Qi You and Zhixing also vented by them.

Being scolded in public like this, even a group of skinless bastards can't stand it if they suffer a lot, not to mention that there are thin-skinned people like Cheng Xing and Cheng Wang. The two brothers couldn't have imagined that the Cheng family's skin couldn't cover up for them, but asked Qi You to take it out and open the knife first.

Qi You glanced at the two of them, and said in a clear voice: "Cheng Xing Cheng Wang is in the Qi family, and the house slaves should have been disposed of by the master's family, and Qi Yuanwai sent someone to report the news last night, and I will deal with it personally." ”

This sentence "house slave" was like thunder on the ground, which scared the surrounding people a lot.

Everyone looked at each other: "House slave?!" ”

"Didn't Steward Qi pass his two sons to the Cheng family! This is what Cheng Xing Cheng Wang got rid of his slavery, what's the matter, this is still fake? ! ”

"This ...... How can there be such a good thing that is not willing to give up his son to support his old age and is afraid that his son will become a slave! This father and son are actually the same fake! ”

"I also deliberately faked to Lord Cheng's own family, this thought, I'm afraid I wasn't waiting to take advantage of the loophole in this stubble, but I didn't expect that Lord Cheng is an iron-faced and selfless person, and his relatives still grasp it, and he is digging out such a thing as a subsequent fraud!"

This group of people scrutinized decently, and they did not avoid others, everyone could hear it, and interjected by the way.

On the other side, the two brothers on the other side turned red immediately when they were executed in public, but a hundred eyes were projected, telling them to have nowhere to hide.

Qi You ignored these and continued slowly: "There are two things today, I will make a long story short, one is that everyone knows about it, it is the punishment of these people who participated in Li Daitaozhuang's incident, and the other is ......."

Hearing Qi You's voice, the noise of the crowd stopped in twos and threes.
