The wine is not much good wine, and the bamboo leaf green wine that is often found in Shudi. This kind of wine is not too strong, not too mild, or in other words, some people feel too strong when they drink it, and some people feel bland and tasteless when they drink it.

Bamboo leaves are green for a pot of silver, and ordinary people can afford to drink it.

The food and drinks were quickly prepared. The county lord looked around in the hall, the lady was not there, and the children were not there, they all went to her mother's house with the lady, this is what the lady has to do every month, the lady loves home.

Xiancheng thought to himself, if his wife was there, I am afraid he would not drink. It's not that Madame won't let him drink it, but Madame doesn't like the smell of wine very much, and since Madame doesn't like it, he won't drink it.

After drinking three glasses of wine, Lord Xiancheng stared at the wine glass in his hand, falling into the inevitable remorse after each drink. The reason for regret is, of course, because I did something wrong, and of course I have a past.

It was many years ago, when he first arrived at the post of county minister, he was full of spirit and pride in helping the people. The county lord was generous and kind, and often gave him a lot of encouragement and teaching, which deeply touched him.

One day three months later, he drank too much wine at a friend's banquet, as the saying goes, wine strengthens people's courage, and the county lord was on the way to the thatched house, and saw a servant girl, and for some reason he suddenly became lustful, so he did the woman in the backyard. The process can be imagined, the maid has a low status, and she is facing the county lord, so she doesn't even dare to shout.

When he was done, he sobered up. The young man was stunned, scared, regretful, trembling... Countless indescribable feelings came one after another, and the county lord knelt on the ground in a daze and kowtowed to the maid. The servant girl only cried, and did not dare to shout or run.

There is such a stalemate, on one side are the big people in Bazhong City, and on the other side are the dusty ordinary people.

"Lord County, this is..."At this time, Lord County suddenly appeared.

Lord Xiancheng trembled, like a thunderbolt ringing in his ears, he didn't dare to look at the county at all, and continued to kneel on the spot in a daze.

Lord Xianzun gasped: "What's your woman's name, where do you live?" or the county zun reacted quickly and immediately asked.

"Little... The little girl's name is Gui Zhi, she is a countryman, and her parents died early... Be... It's an orphan, woo," said the maid, kneeling on the ground, muffling her cry as she spoke.

The county lord stretched out his hand to pull the county man up, and said to the maidservant, "Have you been working in this restaurant?"

The maidservant said, "Yes, my lord, there are two... It's been three months. ”

"Later, I will tell the shopkeeper of the restaurant, you come with me, I will give you silver, so that you can live without worry, do you understand what I mean?"

The maidservant still wept and did not answer.

"Answer me. Lord Xianzun said in a deep voice.

"The slave family understands, the slave family understands. The maidservant trembled, and her tears seemed to be broken, but she nodded her head.

Since then, the private county lord has become a vassal of the county lord. On the surface, the county lord and the county lord are fighting each other, but in fact, no matter how big or small, the county lord almost does not dare to call the shots.

For so many years, the county government has been the hall of words of the county lord.

Lord Xiancheng has tried many times to get rid of the shackles of the county, but in the end he can't do it. The woman in the hand of the county lord is the trump card of the county lord, it is a sharp sword hanging above the head of the county lord, as long as the county lord is a little disobedient, this sword may fall down and split the county in half.

He also wanted to escape, and he made it clear to the county lord that he wanted to be transferred to another place, even if it was just to make a history, he was willing. But the county said with a smile, it's good that you will work in Bazhong City for a lifetime, let's go together when the time comes, don't go to other places, there is always no comfort with our old friends.

Therefore, the county is probably the most aggrieved high-ranking official in the entire county government.

It's a good thing that the county is so aggrieved, but he still hasn't indulged in wine. Every day, in addition to going to the county government to do official business, I go home to read and write, and I rarely have a banquet with friends.

He often thinks that he has no very fondness for women at all, and he will not be too indulgent with his wife, why did he lust for such an ordinary servant girl that night?

The more I thought about it, the more unreasonable I felt, until later he thought that this must be the conspiracy of the county zun, the chance encounter with the maidservant on the day of the banquet, everything was planned by the county zun a long time ago. The county zun wants to use this means to firmly control him and make him, the county leader, a puppet.

The prefectural orders and prefectural commanders of each city are two factions vying for power, which is also a normal system of constraints. But in Bazhong City, everything was broken by the county honor. The county is not

I don't have to admire the wrist of the county honor.

Although he was full of doubts in his heart, although he tried to escape many times, but all ended in failure, and now he has long since accepted his fate. The career in this life is only in Bazhong City, and there is no doubt that there is no suspense.

After a pot of wine, the county lord said to the maidservant next to him, "Did Madame leave anything when she left?"

The maid said respectfully: "Back to the master, the lady didn't leave a word, but just said to the servant, if you drink wine, master, you can only let you drink two pots at most." ”

Lord County Cheng couldn't help but smile: "Madam, it's just too wide, otherwise I wouldn't have paid a single concubine by now." ”

The maidservant didn't dare to make a sound, but she thought in her heart, Madame has given you several Zhang, but you have rejected them, and you have scolded Madame, and now she has come to complain again, which is really unfair for Madame.

For the second pot of wine, the county man stood up, grabbed a handful of peanuts in his right hand, carried the wine jug in his left hand, walked to the yard, and walked under the plum tree.

The spring plum blossoms in early spring are very beautiful, and they stand proudly in the red, delicate and cold.

It's not as proud and tall as Hanmei, and it's not as delicate as the spring flowers in March.

It has a warmth between cold and warmth.

The county man shook his nose and smelled it, the fragrance of the flowers is not strong, the fragrance is clear, he likes this aroma very much, he likes it since he was a child, just as he likes this wine, it is neither strong nor light.

Sir once said that this is the golden mean.

But he didn't think so. At first, he believed what Mr. said, but then he felt more and more that his liking was not modest, he simply liked this feeling of not being too much and not being enough.

He argued with Mr., and later, he suddenly felt one day that he had to argue with Mr. Why do you have to argue with Mr., maybe the spring plum in Mr.'s heart is the mean, and the one in his heart, as long as he knows that it is not the mean, it's okay.

"Plum blossoms bloom in February, when will the concubine come?" The county Cheng directly poured a mouthful with the pot on his neck, and suddenly recited a limerick poem, and laughed after he finished speaking.

The maid also covered her mouth and snickered beside her. It's rare for a master to have such a time, and it's really good to look good when the lord is not serious...

The maid was a little stupid, and the county suddenly said: "Xiaomei, your name is Xiaomei, but it is like the lotus flower, blooming in the hot summer." ”
