After writing the letter, Lin Jia ordered Ah Qing to ask Ye Chunshan to come over.

Ye Chunshan is a close confidant of his father King Xingping County, this time Lin Jia came to Zhao County to serve, because he was worried that he would not be able to serve the public at a young age, so the King of Xingping County sent Ye Chunshan over, and also brought the most elite palace guards - according to the system, the King of Xingping County can raise five hundred personal soldiers to defend the palace, and the two hundred soldiers brought by Ye Chunshan were all carefully selected from the personal soldiers of the King of Xingping County!

Ah Qing is a ghost, so he went directly out of the county government and went straight to the martial arts arena opposite the county office.

Ye Chunshan was training in the snow with the guards in the martial arts arena, and when he heard that the county magistrate was invited, he ordered his deputy Shen Xin to continue to direct the drill, and he followed Ah Qing to the county government in the snow.

Lin Jia was standing in front of the back window looking at the flying snow outside, and Ah Cheng's voice came from outside: "My lord, Lord Ye has arrived!"

After a slight groan, Lin Jia said lightly: "Please come in, Lord Ye!"

Ye Chunshan, who was wearing the costume of a fourth-grade military attaché, walked in, and a thin layer of snow fell on his body, which brought a layer of cold air as soon as he came in.

Lin Jia glanced at Ah Cheng.

Ah Cheng stuck out his tongue, hurriedly took a duster, and helped Ye Chunshan brush off the snow on his body.

Only himself and Ye Chunshan were left in the room, Lin Jia lowered his eyes and said slowly: "Lord Ye, I have something to trouble you."

Ye Chunshan immediately got up and said respectfully: "Son, please speak!"

Lin Jiajun's face was slightly red, and he said slowly: "I want to ask Lord Ye to help me investigate someone."

Ye Chunshan's eyes were bright, staring at Lin Jia, waiting for Lin Jia's next words.

Lin Jia's face was hot, he knew that his face must be red, so he took a deep breath and told himself in his heart: Lin Jia, why are you blushing? You haven't done anything unseemly!

But no matter how he does psychological construction, the heat on his face just can't go away.

Lin Jia was desperate for her thin skin, and sat there in a daze, without saying a word.

Ye Chunshan is a close confidant of Lin Tao, the king of Xingping County, and naturally knows that the handsome and sick young man in front of him is the most beloved son of the king of Xingping County, and he is also the most beloved nephew of Lin Yuanpai, the emperor of Yongtai, today, but he has gone to two extremes with the character of his father, Lin Tao, the king of Xingping County-Lin Tao, who is a father, has no discipline at all, and is extremely shameless; And Lin Jia, who is a son, is the most face-saving, and has a double cleanliness habit of spirit and **, which has reached the point of pathology.

Therefore, seeing that Lin Jiajun's face was flushed and Xiuchang's eyes were watery, Ye Chunshan remembered what the prince had explained before leaving-"If Ajia's face is slightly red, it means that he is just shy; If his face is red, and his eyes look like they are covered with water, you must not think that he is shy, he is angry with himself and himself! ”

Ye Chunshan was able to climb to the position of the fourth-grade military attache at a young age, so he was naturally extremely thoughtful, he stood there without saying a word, looking at his nose and nose, as if he had forgotten the passage of time.

Lin Jia picked up the tea that was already cold on the bookcase, took a sip, and the slightly cold tea slowly lowered the heat on his face.

Only then did Lin Jia open his mouth and continued: "Lord Ye, you can help me check Li Xixi in Rouge Lane, see who she has been in contact with on weekdays, and what is her relationship with the county Cheng Hu Yingzhi and the county lieutenant Helian Shan."

Ye Chunshan bowed his hand and said respectfully: "Childe is asking me to check Li Xixian in Rouge Lane, right?"

Lin Jia knew that Ye Chunshan was careful, and this was to confirm it, so he nodded.

As soon as Ye Chunshan left, Helian Shan came.

After talking about business, Helian Shan talked about last night's events with a smile: "Fortunately, last night, the adults left first, the adults walked on the front foot, and the lower officials also left, but when the lower officials left, the snow was already heavy, and the road was a little slippery.

Lin Jia raised his eyes to look at Helian Shan, and Xiuchang's eyes were clear: "Lord Hu has a treat?" Didn't Lord Helian know about it before? ”

Helian Shan knew that this was Xiaozhi County testing himself, so he argued: "My lord, Xia Guan originally proposed to have a large private room in Meixi Building, the largest restaurant in Zhao County, and all the officials accompanied the adults to have a drink, but later Lord Hu proposed to go to Rouge Lane, and Xia Guan first arrived, and he was not familiar with the county officialdom, so he also agreed."

Lin Jia looked at Helian Shan's eyes and found that he was a typical double eyelid with big eyes, and the eyes under the sword eyebrows were black and white, very clear, so he smiled slightly, changed the topic, and talked to Helian Shan about the imperial examination in Zhaoxian: "Lord Helian, I heard that Zhaoxian has not been a jinshi for ten years, and has not been a lifter for five years, what is going on?"

Helian Shan's expression suddenly became serious, and said: "My lord, I also heard after I came to Zhaoxian that Lord Chenghu of the county was the last person from Zhaoxian County, and for five years, not a single person in Zhaoxian County was admitted."

Lin Jia's voice was gentle: "What do you think is the reason?"

His expression was a normal look of a superior caring for a subordinate, and his voice was very gentle, but such a look was matched with his childish sixteen-year-old handsome face, how to look at it.

Helian Shan simply lowered his eyes and didn't look at Lin Jia: "My lord, although Xia Guan doesn't care about the county school, he has also studied this problem. Xia Guan believes that there are many reasons, but there are two fundamental ones, one is that there is a problem with the atmosphere of the entire Zhao County, and the other is that the county school has not been properly run. ”

When Lin Jia heard this, he was very concerned, so he looked at Helian Shan with a smile: "Lord Helian, please continue!"

Helian Shan continued: "Zhaoxian is a famous place in the Great Zhou Dynasty that is rich in handsome men and beautiful women, so that the family concubines raised by the powerful in the capital are prolific in Zhaoxian, and Zhaoxian is often used as a signboard in the courtyard, which has formed an atmosphere over the years."

"The people of Zhao County have gained sweetness from selling their children and girls, and most of them think that reading and literacy is not as good as selling their children and daughters, and the reading atmosphere in the county is not strong. As for the county school, if the adults are free, the next official will accompany the adults to have a look! ”

He was originally a general, but his father died and his family was defeated, so that he was a dignified martial artist, but he was reduced to Zhaoxian as a county lieutenant.

Since he came to Zhaoxian to be an official, Helianshan naturally had a lot of enthusiasm and wanted to do his part to govern Zhaoxian well, but after coming for a few months, Helianshan found that the entire Zhaoxian County was like a pool of stagnant water, and he couldn't change the officialdom of the entire Zhaoxian County at all, so he could only do his part, and then live in a mess.

Now that there is Lin Jia, a young magistrate, Helian Shan puts the hope of change on Lin Jia.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, Yu Yu and Qing Cha shared an umbrella, and according to the instructions of the grocery store guys, they held each other's hands, walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and finally came to the first alley.

There is a wooden sign hanging at the entrance of the alley, which is engraved with the three big characters of "Yapo Wu".

Yu Yu smiled and pointed to let Qingcha see: "Qingcha, this is it!"

Qingcha also rejoiced and said, "Let's go!"

Yu Yu held an umbrella in his left hand and a tea in his right hand, and turned into the alley.

The snow in the alley was very thick, and Yu Yu and Qing Cha were wearing deerskin galoshes on their feet, which was really a pit to step on.

The two of them helped each other to the first house in the alley.

Seeing that there was also a sign of "Ya Po Wu" hanging outside the door, Yu Yu knew that this was the house of Ya Po Wu Yuhui's wife mentioned by the grocery store worker, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Yu Yu had just knocked on the door a few times when she heard footsteps coming from inside, followed by a little girl's voice: "Who?"

At the same time, a crack opened in the door, and a little girl stood behind it, looking curiously at Yu Yu and Qing Cha.

Yu Yu said with a smile: "Is this the house of Wu Yuhui's wife?"

The little girl smiled and nodded, "It's my home."

Yu Yu said: "We want to buy a rough maid, so come and have a look!"

The little girl smiled and said, "My mother is in the house, please come in!"

She opened the gate, welcomed Yu Yu and Qing Cha in, and led them into the courtyard.

The yard was neat, and there were a few trees planted in the courtyard, but because it was winter, the leaves had fallen, and Yu Yu didn't recognize what tree it was.

The owner was obviously a diligent man, and although there was a thick layer of snow in the yard, the snow on the blue brick road used for walking in the yard had been swept away, and there was only a thin layer of floating snow.

There was a thick chrysanthemum pattern light purple thick curtain hanging on the door of the main room, and before he reached the door, he said loudly: "Mother, someone came to buy a rough maid!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the door curtain was lifted, and a young woman in her twenties came out and said with a smile: "Where are the guests?"

Yu Yu and Qing Cha looked at it and found that this young woman was very beautiful, with a snow-white goose egg face, black and curved eyebrows, big double eyelids, clear and agile eyes, and her lips should have been smeared with balm, red and moist.

The little girl pointed to Yu Yu and Qingcha to show her mother: "Mother, here!"

The beautiful young woman looked at Yu Yu and Qing Cha, her eyes circled around Yu Yu twice, and said in her heart: How can such a beautiful little girl come out to buy a maid in person? Look at dressing up, she should be a maid herself!

She smiled slightly, came out to salute, and invited Yu Yu and Qingcha in.

The bright room was paved with green bricks, and a large brazier was placed, and an iron hook hung from the roof beam above the brazier, and a clay pot hung from the iron hook, which was boiling water, and the room was filled with water, but it was not cold.

The young woman let Yu Yu and Qingcha sit down on the chair against the west wall, and sat down on the circle chair in front of the table, and instructed the little girl: "Xingyun, quickly make tea for the guest!"

The little girl agreed, quickly took out two tea bowls, scalded them with boiling water, and then pinched some tea leaves from the makeup on the table, put them in the two tea bowls, then flushed in boiling water, and then put them one by one on the small table between the jade gardenia and the clear tea.

Yu Yu smiled in the thick fragrance of tea and said, "Sister-in-law Wu, I want to buy a rough maid, I wonder if you have the right person here?"

That Wu Yuhui lady didn't smile or speak, she was likable when she looked at it, she smiled and said: "I have two or three consignment people here, but I don't know if the girl has any other requirements?"

Yu Yu had already thought about it in his heart, and immediately said: "Do your work cleanly and quickly, keep your mouth strict, and treat people more realistically!"

The lady Wu Yuhui suddenly laughed and said: "If it is necessary to be a beauty, I may not find it for you immediately, this condition is not difficult for the girl!"

At this moment, there was a sudden cry outside, which was very miserable.

Yu Yu raised her eyes to look at Wu Yuhui Niangzi.

Wu Yuhui's lady saw that this little girl Biqing's wonderful eyes looked at her for a moment, obviously suspecting that she had done something bad, so she smiled bitterly and said, "It's Xu Er's wife and her daughter in Xujiagou in the west of the city." Xu Er died, the in-laws and the eldest uncle were in charge, and they put this mother and daughter here for sale, I thought that I was a good white man, and I couldn't send them to the prostitution door, so I kept it, thinking about seeing a real family......"

Yu Yu said with a smile: "In this case, Sister-in-law Wu will take us to have a look!"

Wu Yuhui's lady has been dealing with people all the year round, and she has long seen that the sweet and lovely one of the two little girls is in charge, so she led Yu Yu and Qingcha out of the bright room and went to the west wing.

Mrs. Wu Yuhui stood in front of the door of the West Wing and knocked on the door, saying, "Second Lady Xu, it's me!"

The door opened, and it was a slender young woman with puffy eyes and timid, with a white velvet flower on her hair, who looked only twenty-one or twelve years old, with fine white skin, willow eyebrows and almond eyes, and although she had a thorn hairpin cloth skirt, she also had seven or eight colors.

She curtsied and invited the group in.

Yu Yu saw that the young woman was still holding a seven or eight-year-old girl in her hand, a pair of black and white eyes were looking at her, her eyes were full of fear, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little sour, so she asked the young woman: "You are Xu Erniang?"

The young woman bowed her head and timidly replied "yes."

Yu Yu thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know how to cook and do laundry?"

Before the young woman could speak, Wu Yuhui's lady laughed first: "She cooks the best, I can prove this!"

Yu Yu asked again, "How's the needlework?"

The young woman was still cowardly, and when Wu Yuhui saw this, she took out a small cotton jacket from the needlework dustpan on the side and opened it for Yu Yu to see: "This is what she made for her daughter, look at this stitch, how fine it is!"

The young woman suddenly looked at Yu Yu, her wet eyes full of fear: "I...... My daughter and I don't ...... Do not separate! If we were to be separated, I'd rather hit the wall and die! ”

Her voice trembled, and it was obvious that she had mustered great courage to speak, and as she spoke, she desperately sandwiched her daughter under her squeaky nest, and the bodies of the mother and daughter trembled in unison.

Seeing this, Yu Yu's nose was sour, and her eyes were moist - this mother, to this point, has to protect her daughter; And her own mother, as long as she can sell for more money, she doesn't care where she is sold!

Yu Yu was already determined to buy this mother and daughter, but she was afraid that Wu Yuhui's mother would open her mouth, so she calmed down her emotions for a while, and then asked: "Sister-in-law Wu, if you buy their mother and daughter, how much silver will you get?"

Wu Yuhui's lady looked at Yu Yu carefully and said, "I don't know where the girl is?" How do you look at some faces? ”

Yu Yu smiled slightly, and said: "I am the maid of the new county magistrate's inner house, I want to buy a person to do rough work to go back, if the price of Sister-in-law Wu is right, I can take the person away at this time!"

When Sister-in-law Wu heard this, she was overjoyed and said: "Since it is the mansion of the county magistrate, then it is easy to say, I will not say anything about the little daughter-in-law, the mother's twelve taels of silver, the daughter's three taels of silver, a total of fifteen taels of silver, what does the girl think?"

When Yu Yu heard this, she felt that the price was very cost-effective, she was afraid that things would change, and someone would cut off her beard in the middle, or someone would take advantage of it, so she said: "Then let's do it, let Xu Erniang's mother and daughter pack their luggage and go back with us directly, Sister-in-law Wu, you also follow the past, let's find a government officer in the county government to be a middleman, and redeem the value of the silver, and the deed is written, what do you think, sister-in-law Wu?"

Mrs. Wu Yuhui didn't expect this little girl to look at the delicate and timid, like a delicate flower, but she did things so neatly and orderly, so she said: "The girl really understands what she does, I will take their mother and daughter to the county government with the girl!"
