Next, I listened to Guan Jiatian: "Why do you look better than me?" ”

Du Jinning: "......"

Tao Huahui: "......"

Lu's appearance is beautiful, Guan Jiatian took over his mother's appearance, and he is indeed stronger than ordinary people.

But he is a twenty-nine or almost thirty-year-old man this year, and he has two mustaches, plus he is tall, and he is completely a bearded and slashed man. Now he came to compare his beauty with the flower-like girl Du, which instantly made Du Jinning subvert his impression of Guan Jiatian.

"Poof, big brother, you're really humorous." Du Jinning couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, just kidding." Guan Jiatian raised his hand and arched his hand to Du Jinning, "Little junior brother, I have admired my name for a long time." All these years, you have been happy in front of your father, and our brothers are very grateful to you. ”

"It was the teacher and my wife who took care of me, but I was ashamed of my brother's gratitude." Du Jinning returned the salute.

Guan Jiatian patted Tao Huahui's shoulder again: "Brother Huahui, this is my little junior brother." Don't bully my junior brother like Cao Hongshou, be careful that Lord Benzhizhou gives you small shoes to wear. ”

Du Jinning couldn't help laughing again.

I didn't expect the senior brother to be a tease, and her life was fun.

Tao Huahui seems to be an old acquaintance with Guan Jiatian, and the relationship is quite good.

He glanced at Guan Jiatian and said to Du Jinning: "Your senior brother is sowing discord, let's ignore him." We both know the same thing, and we should be connected to deal with him. Usually late and early leave halfway through, we have to take care of each other and help us play a sloppy eye. ”

Saying this, Du Jinning laughed again.

Although the three of them did not wear official uniforms, Du Jinning's appearance was really eye-catching. Because of the fall of Cao Hongshou and Wang Yugui, in just two days, Runzhou City's ability to know Du Jinning, a fellow knowledger, was spread everywhere, and rumors spread everywhere about how she fought against Cao Hongshou, the living king of Yama.

And the officers and soldiers guarding the city, as people who had been amazed by Du Jinning's appearance, even took out Du Jinning's appearance and boasted about it, and in the process of boasting, they became more profound about Du Jinning's appearance.

When Du Jinning just arrived at the city gate to pick up people, the officers and soldiers guarding the city noticed her presence. Later, Du Jinning received Guan Jiatian and the others, and then heard them put forward Cao Hongshou's name, and repeatedly mentioned the words "Zhizhou" and "Tongzhi", so he guessed that these two were the new Zhizhou and Tongzhi.

Looking at Du Jinning's familiar appearance with these two, everyone's speculation has been further confirmed.

Master Du really has a tough backstage, Cao Hongshou didn't deal with him, so he broke Cao Hongshou down, and got one or two Zhizhou and Tongzhi who had a good relationship with him, which was simply hand-eyed.

Master Du, you must not be offended.

Because the officials in the yamen have not been able to see Lord Du, and the posts they have tried to hand in have been sunk into the sea, they are worried, just waiting to be settled by the autumn queen, and they don't dare to gossip about Lord Du's courage and thoughts. The officers and soldiers defending the city belong to the military attaché and are not in the same system as the civilian officials, so there is no taboo when it comes to discussing this kind of thing.

But seeing the scene in front of him, the captain was still taken aback by his conjecture, and warned his soldiers: "In the future, you can't tell people that Master Du is more beautiful than the eldest girl, if you think you are more powerful than Cao Hongshou, then say, otherwise shut up for me." ”

The soldiers nodded hurriedly.

If Du Jinning can even control which one comes to Runzhou and Ren Zhizhou, then pinching a soldier like them to death is not as simple as stepping on an ant?

Du Jinning didn't know what these people were saying about her, she walked forward with Guan Jiatian and Tao Huahui and asked, "The two of you haven't been settled yet, right?" Why don't you come to my house first? ”

She glanced at the carriages that had just been inspected: "Is there a companion for my sister-in-law and my nephews and nieces?" ”

Guan Jiatian said: "The holy decree is urgent, we are all in a hurry from our respective places to Beijing, and after receiving the emperor's order, we hurried here, and our families are still in the original location, so we can come later." ”

After a pause, he said: "So don't worry, if the state government has a place to live, we can live in the state government." As for Brother Tao and I, plus a few male servants, it doesn't matter where we live, so let's not bother Aunt Du. ”

As he spoke, he smiled and patted Du Jinning's shoulder: "If you have the heart, help us inquire about the house, Brother Tao and I are afraid that we will have to stay here for a few years." ”

It takes a while for officials to get acquainted with the local situation, so the term of office is not short, but it is not very long, so as not to breed corruption and power, and it is usually three to six years, staying for one or two terms.

Guan Jiatian and Tao Huahui will stay here for at least three years.

The state government for officials to live in has a house, but the area is not large, and it costs a sum of money to repair it, so unless the family is very poor and cannot afford to buy a house, everyone will not live in it.

Du Jinning smiled: "In this way, then I won't force the two." Naturally, there is no problem in buying a house, and the two of them told me the requirements of the housekeeper, who is still very good at doing the work of the middle. She pointed to Yao Shuqi.

Yao Shuqi hurriedly saluted.

Everyone laughed.

"Alright, let's get in the carriage." Guan Jiatian said, "The state government is still some distance from here. ”

"Yes, there is probably a stick of incense before you can get to the state office." Du Jinning said.

So everyone got into the carriage.

Before Du Jinning got into the carriage, he glanced at Yao Shuqi, Yao Shuqi rode on the horse and led a few people to gallop away.

Since Du Jinning came to pick up people, he naturally would not be unprepared.

The house behind the state government has long been dilapidated because it has not been lived in for a long time. Although Guan Jiatian said that he would only stay for a few days, he would have to repair and clean up, at least pick the roof tiles, replace the doors and windows, and then clean and clean.

These need to be led by Yao Shuqi to do it.

When Guan Jiatian and Tao Huahui arrived at the state government, they saw Yao Shuqi leading a group of subordinates to be busy, and the two of them were very fond of Du Jinning's affection.

At this time, Yao Shuqi had already cleaned up the hall and came out and said, "The villain ordered a table of noodles according to the young master's instructions, and he can ask someone to put it on immediately." Do the two adults clean up for a while and then eat, or do they eat and then clean up? ”

Guan Jiatian and Tao Huahui glanced at each other and said, "Let's just wash our faces." After a day's journey, I was hungry. ”

When the two of them went to wash their hands and feet and changed their clothes and came out, they saw a tall and thin man in his forties talking to Du Jinning.

Du Jinning hurriedly introduced the two of them: "This is Master Ma Jianma, the original acquaintance." ”

Ma Jian stepped forward to salute Guan Jiatian and the others, and his heart was full of gratitude to Du Jinning.

In the past few days, he has been closed to Du Mansion, and he still thinks that Du Jinning treats him the same as Cao Hongshou and Wang Yugui treated him. He was mentally prepared to continue to sit on the cold bench.

Unexpectedly, today, the descendants of the Du family went to inform him, saying that the new Zhizhou and Tongzhi were here, and Lord Du asked him to come over for dinner together.

He was really flattered.
