"I have the strength to help my dad now...... They farm, just in time to come to the county seat, even if they are porters, they always have to earn more food for their families. ”

Yu Erzhu was a little worried.

"Brother You, the injuries on your body haven't healed yet, can you bear these jobs? Why don't you finish the New Year slowly? ”

Yu Dayou shook his head.

"It's the end of the year, and it's easier to find a job, and when the spring opens, other families will come to find work, but they can't make a lot of money."

"But your ...... hurt"

"It's okay, I'm rough and thick-skinned, this injury is nothing."

While the two were talking, a man riding a horse came across from them.

Nowadays, there are not many people riding horses, especially in the countryside like them, so the two of them subconsciously looked at each other.

The young man on the horse was about twenty years old, wearing a blue narrow-sleeved robe, with dense pleats underneath, a red cloth ribbon tied around his waist, and a somewhat round face.

"This person looks like he's from the yamen."

The two of them saw the origin of the young man at a glance, and suddenly their hearts were shocked, and they immediately took their eyes back, not daring to take another look.

The young man galloped and passed them. Yu Erzhu listened to the sound of horses' hooves getting farther and farther away, and glanced back.

"That person seems to be heading in the direction of our village."

When Yu Dayou heard this, he also turned around and glanced at the young man's back, and found that as Yu Erzhu said, the young man meant to go to Guoshu Village.

The two of them didn't talk anymore, these years ordinary people have a natural awe of the officials in the yamen, and the officials left the county seat to come to a village like theirs, and they always felt that something terrible had happened.

The ox cart then proceeded slowly, and it was not long before they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them, far and near.

"Phew"

A man and a horse came to a steady stop in front of the ox cart.

But the young man went and returned.

The young man glanced at the people on the bullock cart, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and showed a hearty smile.

"Hey, I didn't pay attention just now, I just thought that the people in the carriage seemed to be a little familiar, and I almost missed it."

Yu Dayou's eyes were a little subtle, and he glanced at Yu Erzhu, and the two seemed to want to go together.

"You're Miss Yu's father, aren't you?"

The young man glanced at Yu Dayou and Yu Erzhu, and had a good understanding of Yu Dayou, who was a little older.

Yu Dayou nodded.

The girl Yu in this young man's mouth is his second daughter Yu Xia.

The young man smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"I came here to invite Miss Yu on the order of the county commander, who knew that you would also go to the county seat, or you would have missed it."

Previously, Yu Dayou and Yu Erzhu spoke with suppressed voices, but at this time, the young man's voice was clear, and several people who had not slept deeply on the car board woke up.

Yu Xia felt as if he had heard a familiar voice in a daze, and when he opened his eyes and looked up, he was stunned for a moment.

"Brother Lu?"

The person who came was Lu Liang.

Yu Xia couldn't figure out how Lu Liang could come to her, and her eyes were full of doubts when she looked at him.

Lu Liang smiled, his eyes caught a glimpse of Yu Chun on the side, his face flushed slightly, and he immediately moved away.

"The county commander sent me over to invite you to a banquet at Heyi Tower in the evening."

Yu Xia was stunned, the county magistrate?

If she remembers correctly, Wen should have left Jintan a month ago, so who is this county magistrate who came to invite her?

Why did you invite her if you didn't know each other?

Lu Liang saw that her expression seemed to understand something, and immediately explained, "It's Lord Wen." ”

Wen?

Isn't he gone?

He has been a parent official here for three years, it's time to return to Beijing, and if he doesn't leave now, do you want to celebrate the New Year here?

Lu Liang clamped the horse's belly slightly, walked forward a little, and approached Yu Xia. Yu Xia Yiyi immediately sat up and leaned over to his mouth to listen.

"Lord Wen was going to leave last month, but because something happened and the trip was delayed, I came to you for a banquet today, it was a farewell banquet, and Lord Wen will leave tomorrow."

Something happened?

Yu Xia didn't understand it even more, what would be so big as to delay the trip of a local official who was going to return to Beijing to report on his work? If you only return to Beijing at this time, wouldn't you want to celebrate the New Year on the road?

Yu Xia looked at Lu Liang's expression, and didn't seem to know much, so he only sighed and nodded.

"Got it, I'll be over in the evening."

Lu Liang was not in a hurry to go back after passing the letter, so he simply followed them to the county seat slowly, chatting with Yu Erzhu and Yu Xia's family along the way.

"Eldest sister, this official has peeked at you many times along the way."

Yu Xian leaned into Yu Chun's ear and whispered.

Yu Chun immediately reached out and twisted Yu Xian's ears, the strength of the hand was extremely tricky, obviously he didn't use much force, but it hurt so much that Yu Xian's facial features were squeezed together.

Yu Xian took care of the people on the side, and he didn't dare to scream, so he only suppressed his voice and begged Yu Chun for mercy.

"Sister, I was wrong, I was wrong, you let go!"

Yu Chun was unmoved, and he put more effort under his hands, Yu Xian was so painful that his snot was about to fall off, and his whole face was red.

"Eldest sister, I don't dare anymore, you let go, otherwise I'm going to scream!"

Yu Chun snorted coldly and let go of his hand.

"Hmph, let's see if you dare to talk nonsense in the future."

Yu Chun looked around, and the other people's attention was on Lu Liang, after all, it was a bad master, and a few of them naturally didn't dare to slack off, so no one noticed the movements of the two of them.

"But eldest sister, I'm not talking nonsense, I deliberately counted it just now, and he peeked at you eight times!"

Yu Chun raised his hand again.

"Big sister, big sister, don't screw my ears anymore! It's too ruthless, how old am I, you treat me like this, I'm so wronged. ”

Yu Xian still had tears in the corners of his eyes that had just been twisted out of his ears, and his face was pitiful, but his two eyes kept turning, and he was using his brain crookedly when he saw him.

"You're young, I'm old? You don't want to think about how old I am, how old this poor man is, you just talk nonsense, you want people to hear, you don't have to beat you to death. ”

Yu Xian thought about it, too, this Lu Liang looks like he has ten **, his eldest sister is only eleven years old after the New Year, not to mention that Lu Liang may be married now, but he is not married yet, and when the eldest sister reaches the age of going out, this Lu Liang is also an old man, how can he be worthy of his eldest sister.

A few people talked and laughed and arrived at the county seat. Lu Liang told Yu Xia again about the time and place of the evening banquet, and then said goodbye to everyone and left.

He will never be honest and upright when he is on an errand, and he will go to the market with a group of villagers to buy New Year's goods.

"Xiao Xia, why did this county magistrate invite you to dinner?"

Yu Erzhu asked curiously.

Yu Xia smiled and said, "Master Wen is leaving Jintan, this meal can be regarded as practice." ”

There's nothing bad to say, Wen left, and naturally there was a new county magistrate coming over, which was no secret. It's just that I don't know if the new county magistrate will be a parent official like Wen who is dedicated to the people.
