Usually Zhou Ming goes out, whether it is to visit relatives and friends, or to go to the yamen on an errand, it is generally Laifu who drives a carriage to send him there, so after a long time, it gradually forms a habit, so that as soon as Zhou Ming goes out, he will call Laifu to serve.

Zhou Zhou Ming was bent on returning to the yamen just now, so in a hurry, he actually forgot that he had dealt with Laifu yesterday, and it wasn't until after those words came out that he realized what a ridiculous mistake he had made.

Zhou Ming, who knew that he was speechless, smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Look at my brain, I was tired for a day yesterday, and my brain was exhausted, and I was in a hurry and forgot about the stubble of Laifu." ”

Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao also smiled awkwardly, the two of them knew that at this time, it was best not to speak, otherwise, it would only make Zhou Ming even more embarrassed.

After Zhou Ruhai heard the word Laifu, he sighed in his heart, the bits and pieces of getting along with Laifu before, all came to his heart, and he was even thinking about whether to take the opportunity to intercede with Laifu when his son mentioned Laifu, and let his son spare him, even if he couldn't continue to keep him at home, let him have a way to live after leaving the Zhou family.

But after brewing for a long time, Zhou Ruhai never had the courage to speak and mention this matter to his son, because he knew that the reason why his son gave himself face just now proved that he could still afford to be a father.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ruhai immediately became honest, he no longer had any illusions about saving Fu, but said to Zhou Ming very practically: "What does it matter? If you forget about the blessing, it means that your noble person forgets things, which is a good sign.

There are many people available in our family, and without Laifu, why don't we take a carriage? ”

In fact, after Zhou Zhou Ming mentioned Laifu's name just now, he was a little worried, he was afraid that his father would miss the old too much, so he would take this opportunity to intercede for that bastard.

But it turned out that his worries were unnecessary, and his father not only did not speak for Laifu, but began to comfort himself, which made Zhou Ming feel flattered.

Without waiting for Zhou Ming to react, Zhou Ruhai said to Mrs. Zhou: "Madam, go and see what that old family in our family is doing?" He used to drive for my father at home, and his skills were very good, and if he was allowed to send our son to the yamen, it would be fast and safe. ”

Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao both know who the old family member their master is talking about, but that person is over eighty years old, old and frail, and usually walks around.

Zhou Zhou Ming also didn't understand his father's arrangement, and said that the old family was so old, and he was in a state of old-age care in the Zhou family, and he never told him to do any work at home, even those who were subordinates, seeing that he was always in a state of rest, and he didn't work at all, and they didn't care about him.

Although he had objections to his father's arrangement, Zhou Zhou Ming had no way to raise objections, after all, his father did this, and on the surface, it seemed that he was also concerned about himself.

Although Lin Ajiao is worried about Zhou Ming's safety, she is also difficult to say anything in the face of such a problem.

In the end, Mrs. Zhou stepped forward to solve the problem.

"Master, you feel sorry for your son, we all know this." Mrs. Zhou walked up to Zhou Ruhai with a smile on her face and said gently, "The person you sent is also the most suitable for this errand in terms of ability."

But there is one thing you haven't noticed, this old family was serving his father-in-law at the beginning, and now his father-in-law has passed away for many years, this old man is over eighty years old, and he usually has a problem taking care of himself.

Have you forgotten how your father-in-law entrusted us when he was dying? He told us that no matter what situation the family is in in the future, this old family will definitely stay, saying that he is kind to our family, and we will support him in old age.

You said that this old man has been enjoying his old age in peace, and we suddenly sent him such an errand, what would he think in his heart?

My father-in-law will definitely not be happy if he knows about this under Jiuquan. ”

Mrs. Zhou's words quickly took effect.

Zhou Ruhai nodded, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Madam, what you said is also reasonable, but except for Laifu and this old family, no one else in our family knows how to drive at all."

When I was younger, I drove out a few times out of fun, but you can't let me drive for my son, right? This is not unorthodox, and after arriving at the yamen like this, it is inevitable that people will make irresponsible remarks about their son. ”

It was only at this time that Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao realized the seriousness of the matter.

Although there is no carriage, Zhou Ming can walk to the south of the city to inspect the yamen with his feet, but this speed is too slow, it is easy to delay things, and more importantly, this is an extraordinary time, and a famous person like Zhou Ming is likely to cause unnecessary trouble if he walks on the street.

In Zhou Ming's opinion, such a problem is not worth mentioning at all, and he has even planned it, wait for him to go back to the room and disguise himself, and then walk back to the yamen directly with the two messengers.

Although this is not as safe as riding in a carriage, Zhou Zhou Ming is confident that even if he encounters trouble on the way, he can easily resolve it.

But before he could say what was in his heart, an unexpected scene happened.

The two messengers who had been watching from the sidelines were worried when they saw that the Zhou family had no carriage to sit on, and both of them felt very incredible in their hearts, because they had always thought that it was impossible for a big family like the Zhou family to make things difficult for such a thing.

In fact, when Inspector Deng sent them to invite Zhou Ming back to the Yamen, he sent them a carriage, and the reason why he did this was because he was afraid that they would swagger through the market and attract the attention of idle people, and on the other hand, he was also afraid that they would delay on the road for too long, so as to delay major events.

Originally, as long as the two of them opened their mouths and told the people of the Zhou family that they could let Zhou Zhou Ming take their carriage, the Zhou family's problem would be solved, but after being reprimanded by Zhou Zhou Ming, the two of them were already frightened, they were afraid that after they spoke, Zhou Zhou Ming would not only not be grateful to them, but would blame them for talking too much, in that case, whether they had the life to take the carriage back to the yamen would have to be marked with a big question mark.

It was precisely for this reason that they did not speak for a long time, until finally, when they saw that the people of the Zhou family really couldn't think of a way, the two of them relied on their courage and finally spoke: "Lord Zhou, don't hide it, when Inspector Deng sent us, he was afraid that we would delay time on the road, so he sent us a carriage.

If you don't like it, you might as well take the carriage, and as for the two of us, we can follow behind it. ”

After listening to the words of the two poor people, Zhou Zhou Ming was angry in his heart, and said in his heart that if you two didn't say this earlier, it would make my father and mother worry for a long time.

Although he was angry in his heart, Zhou Zhou Ming did not choose to clean up the two errands, because he knew in his heart that this was an extraordinary time, and it would be very worthwhile to delay time for these senseless things.

But Zhou Ruhai and Mrs. Zhou didn't have such a good self-cultivation, and the two of them stared at the two bad people viciously, planning to go crazy immediately.

Zhou Ming saw his father's intentions, so he hurriedly stepped forward to play the round, and said to the two messengers: "In that case, you two hurry up and get the carriage ready, and I will come out later." ”

When the two messengers heard this, they were like grasping a life-saving straw, they said yes and quickly ran out of the door.

These two people both knew in their hearts that what they said just now had actually angered Zhou Ruhai and Mrs. Zhou, if it wasn't for Zhou Zhou Ming at the critical moment, giving them a chance to get out, the two of them would probably not be able to eat and walk around.

"It's all your fault, I'll just say don't talk to you, stay honest, but you have to do it, it's good now, if it weren't for Lord Zhou to protect us, we would be finished."

"I didn't expect Master Zhou and Mrs. Zhou to have such a big temper, I knew it would be like this, beat me to death, I didn't say that we came by carriage."

The two messengers complained to each other as they walked outside.

Zhou Ming was in the study, and explained some things to his father, and then hurriedly walked out of the study and walked out of the door.

The two messengers were already outside the gate, ready the carriage, and as soon as Naruto arrived on Monday, the two of them respectfully invited him to get into the carriage, and the group of three people immediately set off and went straight to the south of the city to inspect the yamen.

The carriage came to the gate of the inspection yamen in the south of the city, and as soon as Zhou Ming jumped off the carriage, many small officials came around, and they scrambled to pat Zhou Ming's ass and say good things to him.

Although these people have a low official position, they are all small roles in the patrol yamen in the south of the city, but each of them is very shrewd, since they personally experienced yesterday's incident, they have decided in their hearts that the chair Deng Tong is sitting on under his ass will be Zhou Ming sooner or later, and they all want to have a good relationship with him before Zhou Ming has officially taken the position, in that case, as long as he sits in the position of the inspection envoy, they will naturally have their benefits in the future.

"Lord Zhou, this is my family's ancestral treasure porcelain, according to my father, it is a priceless treasure, you see what you want to like, just take it home and play with it."

"Zhou Zhutou, I heard that you like knives very much, our relatives happen to make knives, this knife is the most expensive one in his shop, I think you must like it after reading it, so I bought it for you.

You see, this blade is extremely sharp, and it is absolutely easy to use in your hand. ”

All the little officials tried their best to compete for favor in front of Zhou Ming, but unfortunately Zhou Zhou Ming didn't react to their whiskers, and even walked directly past them without even looking at them.
