"Who is this son, and what is the matter with us in Qiaoli Village?" Qiao Guangwen opened his mouth politely, and those who didn't know thought he was a showman.

Hua Banxia didn't have time to tell Qiao Da about this morning, since Qiao Guang asked, Qiao Da couldn't show the discord between the two in front of the official, "This is the head of our Nancheng government, Cheng Putou."

When Qiao Guang heard it, it was really the son of the lord of the mansion, no one in the village did business, and it was difficult to see Cheng Ze in the city.

"It turned out to be Cheng Putou, and Qiao Guang, the head of Xiaomin Qiaoli Village, saw the process of paving", Qiao Guang pretended to be fortunate in three lives, and exaggerated to salute Cheng Ze.

Qiao Guang bent down, and the other villagers behind him all saluted Cheng Ze, and after a closer look, most of the people who wanted to salute were men, and the women seemed to have never seen such a handsome son in their lives, and they all looked straight. There are even unmarried female babies, who look shy.

Cheng Ze didn't pay attention to how many people he was targeting, he just casually made a polite gesture and asked them to get up.

Qiao Guang thought that Cheng Ze was really polite, so he picked up his village chief's shelf, straightened up, and put his hands behind his back, "I don't know what Cheng Putou is doing, why don't you go to Xiaomin's house for a drink?" ”

"Village Chief Qiao?" Only then did Cheng Ze notice this Qiao Guang, who was full of flattery, but was a little self-contained.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes".

"This shop is ordered by the government to come to check the results of the waterwheel in Qiaoli Village, presumably this is it", Cheng Ze pointed to the waterwheel that was still spinning slowly.

Qiao Guang's eyes lit up, it was really a good thing, no, the yamen was here! "Yes, yes, that's it, this is what I did with my fellow villagers."

Qiao Guang couldn't wait to fight for credit, but he didn't think about it, this thing can't be used now, it's good if he doesn't take responsibility, and he still wants to take credit, so he doesn't care about anything as soon as it is beneficial.

"Oh...... Is it? Cheng Ze pretended to be surprised and asked, "How did the head of the shop hear that this thing belongs to this girl?" ”

Cheng Ze didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, so he led the problem to Hua Banxia to see how she coped with it.

Sure enough, the mansion compound is the easiest to cultivate people into intrigue, Cheng Ze is black enough! "On the return trip, this thing folk girl really did not participate in the production", Hua Banxia was very disrespectful and perfunctory to Cheng Ze and replied.

Qiao Guang heard Cheng Ze say that this thing belonged to that woman, and he was so anxious that he almost pounced on it to explain, fortunately, the woman didn't dare to talk nonsense, otherwise she wouldn't want to stay in Qiaoli Village in peace!

"Yes, yes, yes, this is all done by me and the people of our village, their Qiao family is expensive, and they didn't do anything", Qiao Guang and a few villagers came forward, you and I said one sentence at a time, trying their best to prove their merits.

"Really?" Cheng Ze kept staring at Hua Banxia, with a smile in his eyes, "Village Chief Qiao, it seems that there are a lot of capable people in Qiaoli Village, who can come up with such a clever plan to lead the water to a high place, can you please come out and let the official see it?" ”

Cheng Ze said lightly and lightly, he didn't give Qiao Guang a look, either staring at Hua Banxia or secretly observing the waterwheel next to him, where did this woman set up a 'trap'.

"It's... This ......", Qiao Guang was embarrassed, this thing came from Hua Banxia's hand, do you want to overturn what you said before and admit that this is Hua Banxia's credit? No way!

"Back to the adult, it's Xiaomin", just when Qiao Guang didn't know how to answer, Qiao Li on the side rushed out and said to Cheng Ze.

Cheng Ze raised his eyebrows playfully at Hua Banxia, and then turned to look at Qiao Li who came forward, "Who are you?" Did you really do this? ”

Qiao Da's family didn't expect the village chief and Qiao Li to be so shameless, and they all wanted to rush out to tell the truth, but they were all stopped by Qiao Yu, and Qiao Yu secretly told them that this matter had been solved in Banxia, and they were being set up at this time.

Although Qiao Da and his group didn't understand what Qiao Yu meant, they saw Hua Banxia and Qiao Yu's confident appearance, so they quietly waited on the side to see, if it really didn't work, it would not be too late for them to theorize.

"Back to the adult, Xiaomin Qiao Li, this thing is what I thought, and our village chief strongly supports it", Qiao Li didn't dare to take the credit alone, so he had to bring the village chief with him.

He knew Qiao Da, he was too honest, he didn't speak at this time, he must have been afraid when he saw the official, even if the official asked, he had listened to Qiao Da in the courtyard of Qiao's house before, and he could deal with it.

"Oh, then tell me how this thing can lead water", Cheng Ze wanted to hear it, what this man said was not the same as what Hua Banxia said.

Qiao Li had already been prepared, and began to talk endlessly about what he heard in the courtyard of Qiao's house in combination with the waterwheel in front of him.

The more he talked, the more excited he became, the more proud he became, and this thing was just as he said, it could lead water.

"Well said!" Cheng Ze praised it, which made Qiao Li very happy to hear it, but the next sentence made him lose his confidence, "Then why can't it attract water?" ”

"This ...... It's ......", Qiao Li didn't know how to explain, his lowered head kept sending a look for help to the people next to him, but everyone couldn't help it, so anxious that Qiao Li was sweating.

Cheng Ze shook his head, as if he was very disappointed in the ability of these people to bear, "Today, the flower girl went to the government to explain the waterwheel, and Lord Cheng sent the head of the shop to check when he learned about it, what you said is no different from what the flower girl said, and the head of the shop doesn't know how to judge it."

Cheng Ze pretended to be embarrassed, Qiao Guang and his party couldn't judge when they heard Cheng Ze, and they were suddenly relieved, so they couldn't tell whose it was.

"Cheng Putou, is it true that whoever can bring this waterwheel to water proves whose thing this waterwheel is?"

Hua Banxia opened her mouth leisurely, as if it had no effect on her, but her words scared Qiao Guang and Qiao Li.

"Huh? I think this method is good, if you can successfully divert water, the head of the shop can be regarded as having an explanation to the yamen, and by the way, it can prove the innocence of any of you, if you deceive the head of the shop, I want him to look good! Cheng Ze suddenly turned cold, and said sensen.

Then, Cheng Ze naturally used supervision as an excuse to live in Qiaoli Village, Qiao's family had no place to live, Cheng Ze naturally lived in the village chief's house, at least he could have a separate house.

After everyone dispersed, Hua Banxia naturally didn't care how the village chief entertained Cheng Ze, and he wasn't afraid of what he did, anyway, no one knew how to make the waterwheel successfully divert water.

"Village chief, what can I do", Qiao Li secretly grabbed the village chief, and the two discussed under the wall.

"What's the hurry, didn't you see that Cheng Putou lives in my house, when I find a chance to talk to him, that woman must have explained to Cheng Putou, he knows", Qiao Guang was still holding on to luck.

But he still underestimated Hua Banxia's courage, she really didn't give Cheng Ze the complete drawings.

When Hua Banxia and Qiao Da's family returned home, Qiao Da began to worry, "Banxia, this waterwheel is like this, what else can you do, you didn't dare to say that just now!" ”

Qiao clapped his hands anxiously, looking worried.

"Uncle, Dad, it's okay, that's Banxia deliberate", Qiao Yu told everyone about his time in Chengfu today, and then put his mind at ease.

"Banxia, do a good job, the girl should pay more attention", Chen Jiahua admires this niece very much, if she has such a mind, she will not fall into such a poor situation.

"Auntie, don't you blame me?"

"Silly boy, blame you for what you do, that's it, we will get better and better!" Hua Banxia has only been here for so many days, and the Qiao family has begun to change so much, and Chen Jiahua's subconscious slowly followed Hua Banxia's thoughts.

Hua Banxia was very happy to hear this, and took the initiative to explain the one hundred and fifty taels of silver, Qiao Yu may have selfish intentions just now, and he didn't tell them about it, Hua Banxia felt that it didn't matter.

Qiao's family was stunned when they saw this huge amount of money, and Tian Fuzhen hurriedly grabbed the broken silver of the silver ticket that Hua Banxia put on the table and stuffed it into Hua Banxia's hand.

"Quick, put it away, the village ladies are very good, but they can't let them see it."

"Yes, yes, put it away!" Several people also stretched out their hands to ask Hua Banxia to put the money away.

Hua Banxia originally wanted to propose to Qiao Da for part of the right to use the money, but now depending on the situation, Hua Banxia directly proposed to be the financial manager of the family.

As soon as the request was raised, the four elders were as if they had seen a warehouse full of grain, their faces were full of smiles and touches, "Banxia, great, we have always wanted you to take care of it, you know more than us, we can rest assured!" ”

In this way, Hua Banxia became the person who held the financial power of the Qiao family, but Hua Banxia was not so lacking in heart, they would be afraid to do things without money, and Hua Banxia still gave them silver as pocket money.

In this way, Hua Banxia and Hua Qingqing have officially become part of the Qiao family, and it just so happens that because there is a carriage back to the village today, Hua Banxia bought a lot of vegetables at the market at noon, and they can celebrate in the evening.

Under Hua Banxia's repeated assurances, Qiao Da finally gave up the idea of carrying water to water the fields, and instead helped Hua Banxia to cut bamboo. Since they promised to rectify the waterwheel, their unqualified bamboo tubes had to be replaced.

There is not much bamboo to want, one for each of the Qiao family is enough. When they went into the mountains to cut bamboo, Qiao Guang also arranged for someone to follow behind, and they also cut whatever Qiao Da chopped, and they were not taboo at all.

However, Hua Banxia had long expected that something like this would happen, with Cheng Ze here, they would be under great pressure, and they would inevitably do whatever it took to do so.

After a while, Qiao Da and the others came back from cutting bamboo, and they all carried the sharpened bamboo poles on their shoulders and put them in the yard.

"Banxia, come and see, are these successful?"

Qiao Da put it down and went into the house to call Hua Banxia, Chen Jiahua handed Qiao Da a bowl of water, and Hua Banxia went out to see it by himself.

Outside the door, Qiao Er and they had just put it down, and when they saw Hua Banxia coming over, they happily stood up and let Hua Banxia take a look.
