Chapter 191: Guilt

Looking at the side again, it is rumored that Fu Dalangjun, who was detained, has free access in this county government and is highly respected.

It can be seen that rumors can only be rumors, and these rumors are outrageous.

Of course, a group of people couldn't stand at the door of the county government to chat, so Chang Ning suggested that everyone go into the county office to talk.

Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan walked side by side in the front, inviting this distinguished guest from afar to sit in the lobby, and she took Fu Tinghan out to get information under the pretext of changing clothes.

Fu Tinghan said: "Chang Zhu's book said that the merchants are a small business in Shudi, mainly engaged in fabrics, they must have a lot of wool on their hands, if we can have a good relationship with him, it will be more convenient for us to buy fabrics in the future." ”

He paused and said, "And maybe we still need to sell it in the future?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang asked, "I forgot to ask just now, what is his name?" ”

"Zhuchuan," Fu Tinghan said: "Master Chang talked to him, the price of the goods in his hand is not low, he heard what you said outside the county government just now, and he knows that we are short of wool, but I am afraid that it will rise again." ”

Zhao Hanzhang regretted slightly, "I knew that I wouldn't have appeased everyone at the gate of the county government, and I was watched, why didn't you remind me?" ”

Fu Tinghan said: "The stability of the city, the people's will is more important than him. ”

"Yes," Zhao Hanzhang said: "I'll talk about it later, buy it at the right price, we are really short of wool now." ”

Fu Tinghan wanted to say something, but his gaze crossed her and fell on Fan Ying, who was not far away, and swallowed the words.

Zhao Hanzhang followed his gaze and looked back, and when he saw Fan Ying standing some distance away from them, he smiled and waved at her cordially.

Fan Ying immediately stepped forward, curtsy with red eyes, "Girl, I did something wrong." ”

Zhao Hanzhang asked funny: "What did you do wrong?" ”

"I shouldn't have brought them to the county government to ask about the quilt and winter clothes," Fan Ying tightened her fists slightly, pursed her lips and said, "Girl, am I being used as a knife?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang didn't expect her to be so keen, so she thought of it, she didn't answer this question, but asked, "Are you used to living in the county?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang occupied the county office, Fan Ying, as the daughter of the former county commander, was full of loyalty, of course Zhao Hanzhang couldn't treat her badly, so after knowing that she didn't want to stay in Zhao's Wubao, she arranged a courtyard for her in the county seat.

It was Zhao Hanzhang who got the dowry from Zhao Zhongyu, and she directly asked people to change the name of the deed to Fan Ying, and also set up a female household for her.

The people living in that area are not poor, they are all gentry, and it is not very far from the county government, so it can be said that the living environment and safety are good in Xiping County.

However, Zhao Hanzhang was very busy, and these things were all ordered to be done, and she didn't go to see her.

Fan Ying said: "With the care of the Zhao family, I have a good life. ”

Zhao Hanzhang not only gave her a house, but also gave her two honest subordinates, and gave her a lot of fields, relying on subordinates to cultivate those fields, plus some money she sent, Fan Ying was not bad.

At the beginning, the county government was occupied, and the people of the Fan family died and fled, and their property was naturally looted.

Zhao Hanzhang picked out a marked thing and handed it back to her, and then gave some to the little girl from his money bag.

Although it is not a lot, as long as she does not spend a lot, it is enough for her to live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

So Fan Ying had nothing to do, and seeing that the people in the whole city were busy, she also wanted to do what she could, after all, this city was guarded by her father and brother.

She couldn't do such work as farming and building houses, and after knowing that the county government was recruiting people to make winter clothes and quilts, she took the maid out and got some fabrics to go back to do.

Because of the shortage of manpower, she also encouraged her neighbors on the street to help.

They didn't lack that little money and food, but they had also received Zhao Hanzhang's favor, and they also wanted to make Xiping County better, so they followed her to get the fabric and came back to make it.

It's fun for everyone to get together on weekdays to make clothes and talk.

Because the county government is the first cloth, it will take a while to send the wool to be filled, and according to the fabric they receive, they can get the corresponding weight of the wool back to fill.

At first, it was fine, it was indeed cotton catkins, but when they came back two days ago, they brought back a pile of fluttering catkins and reeds.

Fan Ying didn't feel inappropriate at first, and happily filled it in and sewed it up, who said it later, reeds and catkins are not warm, and wearing such clothes in winter will freeze to death, Fan Ying only then knew that reed catkins and cotton catkins are different.

She lowered her head and said a little sadly: "The more everyone gets together, the more angry they become, I thought that the girl was kept in the dark, so in a fit of anger, I took everyone to the county government to discuss the law, I thought that the girl should know about such a thing, otherwise it will be a big blow to the girl's reputation." ”

Zhao Hanzhang didn't expect it to be like this, "You didn't do anything wrong, this time I didn't think about leaving." She smiled: "Originally, I planned to explain it when the finished clothes and bedding were handed out, but it was better to advance so that everyone could have a process of acceptance." ”

Fan Ying shook her head, "No, it's best to explain to them one by one when you send it, if it weren't for me, this matter wouldn't have started now, I couldn't have thought of these at first, and for a while, I couldn't even remember who told me that wearing reeds would freeze people to death, and I knew that I was being used as a knife when I thought about it." ”

When the knife is forgotten, it is still stabbed at Zhao Hanzhang, Fan Ying is very angry in her heart, angry with herself.

Zhao Hanzhang saw that she was so sad, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Miss Fan, are you literate?" ”

Fan Ying was stunned for a moment, raised her head and glanced at her before nodding, "I have read a few books with my brother." ”

"That's good," Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "I have already said, you have not done anything wrong in this matter, if the people have doubts in their hearts, they should ask the yamen calmly, and the yamen should also answer calmly, the officials and the people are honest with each other, and there will be no so-called misunderstanding." ”

"But since you're so guilty, how about you come and help me make up for what you think is lacking?"

Fan Ying's eyes widened, "Me? ”

"Yes, you."

Fan Ying said uneasily: "But what can I do?" ”

"There is too much that can be done," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Don't look at the fact that there are so many more people in the county now, but there are not many literate ones, so there is a shortage of manpower in the county government, if you are willing to help me, I and the officials will be much easier." ”

How much work can she share as a stinky little lady, Fan Ying felt that Zhao Hanzhang was comforting her, and she felt even more guilty for a while, but she still asked, "What can I do?" ”

"Help me count the cloth that has been distributed, the winter clothes and quilts that have been recovered, and the next day I will set up a table to buy cotton wool, and I have to record the daily entry and exit of the account, some of the errand soldiers are illiterate, or they only know how to write and can't write, so ......"

Fan Ying immediately said: "I am willing to do it." ”
