Lin Xi was startled, put down the things he was carrying and went out, and the four small groups also hurriedly followed.

It was Aunt Zhang who came outside.

Lin Xi greeted him and asked, "What's wrong with Shen Chen?" ”

Aunt Zhang ran too quickly, out of breath, Lin Xi patted her on the back to give her a good breath, Aunt Zhang said intermittently: "Your father-in-law, where is the county yamen!" ”

"What?!"

When the four groups heard this, they immediately panicked: "How can Daddy be in the Yamen?" What is he responsible for? Will it be serious? How's it going now?? ”

Aunt Zhang had a headache when she was asked, and Lin Xi stopped the children when she saw this, and said, "Aunt Zhang, what's going on?" ”

Aunt Zhang replied: "It was this morning that Aunt Li's family and Mrs. Chen's family suddenly came to my house, crying and shouting that something had happened to their family, and asked the village chief to administer justice." ”

Lin Xi's eyelids jumped.

Isn't this the same family of those children last night?

Was it because she beat the child last night?

Aunt Zhang said: "My family asked what was going on, and they said that the family had an accident in the county, and it seemed that they had lost gambling by gathering a crowd, and they couldn't afford to pay for it, and then they fought, and there seemed to be people from the yamen. Now, they are all at the county yamen. My family went with them in a hurry. ”

It turned out to be because of this.

This Lin Xi knew that the Great Qin Dynasty, where the original owner was located, was a dynasty that had no history before, and the county system was implemented to manage many local affairs.

And it was Qin Taizu who opened up the Great Qin Dynasty. Five years ago, Qin Taizu was critically ill, and the traitors of the dynasty took the opportunity to launch a mutiny, coupled with the rebellion of the Biansaihu people, which caused frequent wars and chaos in the world, and the people were struggling to make a living, which is the root cause of the people's poverty today.

Later, the crown prince successfully quelled the rebellion and ascended the throne as Qin Taizong, and the Great Qin Dynasty was already riddled with holes and urgently needed to recuperate. Because too many Qing ministers were loyal to the generals who died in that mutiny, the imperial court was unavailable, and the local management was not enough, so an additional article was added on the basis of the county system, and the local squires and township officials assisted in the management of public security.

The village chief of Chenyang Village is one of them, and he not only has to manage and coordinate the security of Chenyang Village, but also has to deal with it if something happens to the villagers of Chenyang Village in other places. This is the reason why Wang Ma Mian made trouble at her house the day before yesterday, and when she saw the village chief and his wife coming, she suddenly wanted to run.

Aunt Li's family members who have an accident and go out to the yamen will definitely be punished, but if the village chief goes, coordinate with the yamen, maybe the punishment will be lighter.

But—

"Why is Shen Chen there?"

Aunt Zhang said: "It seems that Shen Chen happened to be selling things in the county, passing by there, and then the people from the yamen brought him back for questioning." It was also my family who sent the news back, I only knew that Shen Chen was there, thinking that he didn't return all night, you must be worried, don't you hurry up and inform you. ”

Lin Xi thought of the things in the stove room, those prey were indeed gone, and he thought that Shen Chen should have gone out early to bring them to the county.

To be bad!

She just beat Aunt Li and their children last night, and now if they bite people in a hurry, wouldn't they want to splash Shen Chen's dirty water?

Lin Xi immediately decided, "Auntie, I have to go to the county to have a look." ”

Can't let Shen Chen take the blame for her!

Aunt Zhang sighed: "What about the children, are you still sending them to my house?" ”

Dabao hurriedly said: "I'm going too!" ”

The three of Erbao then nodded violently: "We're going to find Daddy too!" ”

Lin Xi said: "You children are at home with peace of mind. ”

looked at Aunt Zhang again, "Auntie, I just made breakfast, seeing that you came so early, you must not have eaten, if you don't like it, you will eat at my house, and help me accompany the child by the way." ”

Aunt Zhang had a little change in her opinion of Lin Xi, and said, "It just so happens that Uncle Li in the west of the village is also going to the county, he has an ox cart, you can take a ride." ”

Lin Xi was worried that he didn't know the way, and when he heard the words, he hurriedly thanked him, led Aunt Zhang in, thought about it and went to the stove room again, put all the wild vegetables he had packed into the bamboo basket, hesitated and put some medicinal herbs on his back.

As soon as she turned around, Dabao stood at the door and looked at her.

Lin Xi's heart softened and said, "I'm sure I'll bring your father back, he'll be fine." ”

Erbao asked without giving up: "You really can't take us?" ”

Lin Xi shook his head: "No, if something happens to you, how can I explain to Shen Chen?" Honestly, wait for us at home. ”

Lin Xi went out, drank half a bowl of porridge to pad his stomach, said goodbye to Aunt Zhang, and left under the eyes of the four little balls.

Afraid that he wouldn't be able to catch up with the ox cart, Lin Xi ran fast.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the west end of the village, Uncle Li was already leaving, and Lin Ci hurriedly shouted to stop.

Lao Li Shu stopped, looked back and saw that she was a little surprised, took a puff of dry tobacco and asked, "Shen Chen's family, you also want to go to the county?" ”

He didn't know anything about the yamen yet.

Lin Xi breathed slowly, took out two copper plates for him, and got into the ox cart.

There was a bad smell in the car, the board was dirty, and I didn't know what kind of dirt it was. Lin Xi, who has a habit of cleanliness, silently sat at the back of a slightly cleaner place.

There were also several aunts in the village, all of whom went to the county's morning market to sell things.

Their eyes were very subtle when they looked at Lin Xi, it may be that the original owner didn't have much contact with the people in the village before, and his reputation as a demon was too loud.

Seeing that Lin Xi was also carrying a bamboo basket, one of them asked, "Shen family lady, what are you doing in the county?" ”

"Something."

Lin Xi smiled and replied ambiguously.

A few people didn't care: "I've never seen you and us gather in the morning before." ”

"You want to open it, and finally have to do some work to subsidize the family?"

"That's good, Shen Chen's kid can finally relax."

"It's not me who said, the lady of the Shen family, since she is married, she can live a good life. Although Shen Chen's family ...... There are four oil bottles, but the children are sensible, and you are also exempt from the pain of having children, aren't you? ”

Lin Xi was not used to talking to them, so he closed his eyes and made up for sleep.

Although the speed of the ox cart was not slow, it was more than half an hour later when it arrived in the county.

Lin Xi asked Uncle Li about the time when he would go back, and asked the location of the yamen by the way, so he hurried to the yamen.

When she arrived, the three layers outside the yamen were full of people.

"It's amazing! I have never heard that there are ordinary people who dare to beat officials! ”

"It's not like that, the people in there are too bold! This time, they will suffer! ”

"To tell the truth, the tall man inside is really powerful, and he smashed many people by himself. Haven't hurt yet! ”

Lin Xi, who was whispering around him, felt cold.

Don't Shen Chen really be implicated and beat the official in a fit of anger?!

It's like a villain can do something, but he can't do it!

"Let's Jean! Trouble let's go! There's people from my family in it! ”

There were too many crowds, Lin Xi's small body couldn't squeeze in at all, and his voice was drowned out by the noisy voices, and he was finally squeezed out.

I don't know who pushed it, Lin Xi didn't stand firm and was tripped up, and fell back unexpectedly.
