"Press the gourd to float the scoop!" Chen Hua sighed to Xu He while scalding his feet full of blood blisters in the back office.

"Finally, the salt field is safe, but I still want you to help me go here, I really can't bear it, but I have no one to use in my hands, and although you are young, you are calm and reliable, resourceful, and I can rest assured that things will be handed over to you!"

Xu He wanted to complain when he heard this, but he looked at him grinning with hot water, and his face was full of folds like air-dried bacon.

Forget it, this county order is more bitter than the stove Ding of Zhangcha in the past two days.

Xu He said: "Do my best, the county still has to mobilize those grain merchants and big households!" ”

Don't mention these people, as soon as Chen Hua mentioned it, he immediately exploded: "Them, they should all be killed, killed!" ”

Seeing that the blue tendons in Heixian Ling's neck were bursting, Xu He knew how deeply Chen Hua had a grudge against those people these days.

"Liangsheng, I'm not afraid that you will laugh at the official, I have a grudge, they will wait for me, but if I can pass the second level this time, I will let these people go around without eating!"

……

Coming out of the county office, Xu He thought about Chen Hua's gritted teeth just now, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Although Lao Chen is a seven-grade county magistrate, how do you say it?

"The county order of the broken family!"

He really couldn't figure it out, what were those people putting in their heads?

Gambling?

Annoyed by the prefectural order, I want to take away the good fields in the county in waves.

The idea is very good, and it is operable, but they don't want to think about it, what if, in case the grain is transported and Chen Hua's official hat is guaranteed, the first thing is to settle accounts with them after the autumn.

Back at his home on Shisheng Street, Xie led Gu Hengbo out.

As soon as he saw Xu He, Xie stroked his son's face and said with tears in his eyes: "Black and thin, have you suffered these two days?" ”

Xu He glanced at Sister Gu and looked at her with a deep sense of shame, so he smiled and said, "There is nothing to suffer, but the second uncle has made great efforts to help." ”

So he told Xu Dai's performance this time.

When Xie heard this, he recited the scriptures in a row, and finally sighed: "There are countless living people, your second uncle can be regarded as having done a good deed, and your Xu family has finally accumulated virtue and done good!" ”

The three of them talked, and Xie Shi and Ding Ze's wife went to dinner.

Only Xu He and Sister Gu were left in the backyard.

Xu He took advantage of the fact that there was no one left and right, and took Sister Gu's hand and said, "Sister, my brother has been out recently, have you missed me!" ”

Gu Hengbo's face flushed, and he quickly broke free of his hand and said, "You are not a good person, as soon as you come back, you will despise me!" ”

These days, this is the time when Xu He is most relaxed, and I saw him laugh and say, "How can this be called lightness? Sooner or later you will still be my man? ”

When Gu Hengbo heard this, he simply turned his head away, pretending to be angry and ignoring him.

However, when she heard that not long after Xu He came back, she was going to go to the Caodu Yamen of Huai'an Mansion to do errands, she turned her head and frowned: "Why are you going again?" Is there no one in the county? ”

Xu He explained to her.

Who knew that after Gu Hengbo heard about this, he thought for a while and said, "I'll go with you this time, right?" ”

Xu He was taken aback: "What are you going to do?" It's not far, but ......"

Gu Hengbo pouted his cherry lips and was unhappy: "What's this?" Do you really think of me as a boudoir lady who doesn't go out of the door? ”

"Besides, I'm not going to play, I was sold to the academy in Songjiang by my parents before, and I had a sister who played well since I was a child, and when I grew up, I was sold by the academy to a general of the twelve general of Caosi as a concubine, just if there is any difficulty, you also have multiple ways!" Gu Hengbodao.

The so-called 12 general commanders of Cao Si are the 12 general commanders of Caoyun who maintained public order, escorted and suppressed bandits along the canal with reference to the 12 battalions trained in the capital after the imperial court set up the governor of Caoyun in Huai'an, with a total of 120,000 troops.

The leader is the general soldier, and there are two staff generals under him, so it can be said that Gu Hengbo is still very hard-rooted in this way.

In view of this, Xu He nodded generously and agreed to bring Sister Gu.

When Sister Gu heard this, she was immediately excited like a bird about to be released from the cage.

In the future, she is definitely a career-oriented strong woman, and she has long been bored in the backyard of the Xu family during this time.

When she said this, she wanted to try Xu He's attitude towards women going out.

I didn't expect Xu He to agree so generously.

Suddenly, she was moved to tears, and hugged Xu He with a sigh.

Xu He was directly surprised by her move, but he didn't expect that he just took her out, and Sister Gu's reaction was so big.

In fact, women in this era, at least the upper class of middle-class families, will not easily let women show their heads.

But Xu He comes from a later life, so naturally he will not bind women in the backyard as his own confinement.

That's a blasphemy against a woman, and it's also a lack of confidence in yourself.

A big man, as long as he has the ability to attract a woman, what if he lets her out?

Xu He has this confidence!

Well, it is still necessary for a woman to disguise herself as a man, and ability is ability, but don't fight the drum face to face with secular etiquette, at least not at present!

When the two of them took the opportunity to talk about the heartfelt feelings that they hadn't seen for many days, Wu Decao suddenly said, "Bright voice, you come out!" ”

Xu He struggled to let go of Sister Gu's waist and reluctantly came to the outer courtyard.

Who knew that the person who came was Lu Heng, who had not been seen for a few days.

Seeing Xu He, Lu Heng happily took a few steps, and when she was about to reach Xu He, a sudden light cough made her stop suddenly.

Xu He looked over there, only to find that a middle-aged man with a white face and delicate skin at the gate of the courtyard was looking at him indifferently.

Xu He immediately felt an awkward feminine temperament from that person.

He thought about it for a while, and heard that the nobles in Beijing all had the habit of raising [Yin people], and they must have been the dead eunuchs of the British government.

Lu Heng explained: "Uncle Zheng is the steward of our house, don't look at him fiercely, he has treated us very well since childhood!" ”

Xu He laughed dryly and did not speak.

After a pleasantry, the two people who had a lifelong friendship suddenly seemed to have lost their ability to speak and didn't know what to say.

After a while, Lu Heng suddenly said with tears in his eyes: "Xu He, I'm leaving!" ”

Although Xu He knew that the daughter of the honorable relatives would always leave one day, he didn't expect that when he arrived at this stall, he was a little reluctant.

"When you arrive in Beijing, remember to write to me to say goodbye!" Xu He smiled!

Lu Heng said: "I heard Wu Decao say that Hailing is in trouble, and you are about to leave for Huai'an Mansion?" ”

Xu He glanced at Wu Decao, this big tongue, he said everything.

However, he nodded: "Caoyun Yamen's refusal to release grain for disaster relief is a bit troublesome, I'll deal with it!" ”

Lu Heng stared at Xu He for a long time, and then said, "You are a good person, these things are not what you should do as a scholar!" ”

Xu He smiled: "No way, I'm super capable!" ”

This joke broke the sorrow at once!

Lu Heng smiled with tears in his eyes: "You are always so annoying!" ”

Xu He didn't speak, just smiled!

Seeing this, Lu Heng said in frustration: "I'm leaving, remember, write to me, I still want to see those ghost stories you wrote!" ”

Xu He nodded: "Don't worry!" ”

Seeing this, Lu Heng wanted to say something again, but after all, it was time to say goodbye, she turned back three times in one step, and when she arrived at the door, and was about to get on the sedan chair, she opened the sedan curtain and suddenly said, "Xu He, do you know?" I'll remember that night by the lake, that story you told me! ”

After speaking, his face turned red, and he suddenly got into the sedan chair as if fleeing for his life.

Seeing this, the white-faced father-in-law looked at Xu He deeply and shouted, "Get up the sedan chair!" ”

Waiting for the sedan chair to turn around the corner, Wu Decao looked at the direction where the sedan chair disappeared in the distance and asked, "Liangsheng, what story did you tell that night!" ”

Xu He smiled: "Oh, it's ......"

Suddenly, as if a lightning bolt flashed through his mind, he clearly remembered that night when he talked about painting and talking about horrors, Lu Heng and Sister Gu suddenly fell into his arms.

"Damn, won't you?"
