Zhou Qi was very aggrieved, but in order not to cause trouble, he finally obediently paid the old lady.

The old lady counted the copper coins, and then said to Zhou Qi: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you commit another ......"

Without waiting for the old lady to finish speaking, Zhou Qi waved his hand impatiently and interrupted: "Double the fine, right?" We got it! ”

The old lady was happy.

"If it's just a fine, I won't remind you."

"Today, the county magistrate will go to Chengxi Pan's house to eat and drink, and I don't know when I will pass by."

The old lady stretched out her hand and pointed to the wooden stakes and said, "If the county magistrate sees you spitting, he will definitely strip you naked and tie you to the pillar for two days." ”

Zhou Qi subconsciously turned his head to look at the two naked fruit bodies, who were being watched like monkeys.

Even if it's death, jump from here.

Our family can't have anyone tied up in this place to watch.

In the end, the old lady left contentedly with the fine, but Zhou Qi gritted his teeth with hatred.

"Master, you have seen it all."

"This Wolong County Order is really unorthodox."

"Compel the people to do this and that, and tie the people to pillars, so that the people will bear the shame in public."

Zhou Qi said indignantly: "If all the officials in the world are like him, the people will not be able to live?" ”

"If there are no rules, how can it be a circle?"

Li Anmin said with his hands behind his back: "If there are no these rules, how can Wolong County have today's scenery?" ”

"By the way, did she say just now that the county order was going to the west of the city to eat wine?"

"Yes!"

Zhou Qi nodded.

"It's better to see it than to hear it, you go to find a few gifts, and let's go to cheer for others."

Li Anmin said unhurriedly: "By the way, let's see what kind of character the Wolong County Commander is." ”

……

Wolong County, Pan House.

Today's Pan Mansion is very lively.

The courtyard is lit up, and the house is full of red sleeves.

And next to the gate of the mansion, there is also a plaque.

[Welcome to the county princess to the dog wedding banquet! ] 】

Li Anmin looked up, and suddenly there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Trick yourself and show off the market."

Zhou Qi said indignantly: "This person just came to attend a wedding banquet, and he even forced the host's house to sign a sign to greet him, which is simply unseemly." ”

Li Anmin also felt that something was wrong.

Officials should be low-key and high-profile.

Wouldn't such an act ruin the reputation of the senior officials?

"Let's go in and have a look."

As he spoke, Li Anmin led Zhou Qi over together.

At the entrance of Pan's house, there is a huge table.

The bookkeeper sat in the back, recording the gifts given by the guests.

Zhou Qi swaggered forward.

He placed the two silk cloths in his hand on the table.

Zhou Qi proudly raised his head and said: "Master Li in Beijing, two silk cloths!" ”

As soon as this statement came out.

The eyes of the people around him fell on him.

Some were surprised, some were surprised, and of course more were puzzled.

See the look in their eyes.

Zhou Qi was even more proud in his heart.

Backcountry is backcountry.

Just sending two silk cloths scared them like this.

And seeing that the bookkeeper did not mean to write down the number of rites for a long time.

Zhou Qi frowned with some dissatisfaction and said, "What do you see our family doing?" Remember! ”

"Uh......"

The bookkeeper laughed dryly.

The bookkeeper pointed in the opposite direction to himself and said, "This distinguished guest, you are in the wrong place, you should go over there." ”

Hear this.

Zhou Qi looked back in a daze.

It was also at this time that he discovered that there were two scene tables in the Panfu Courtyard, one on the left and one on the right.

It's just that because there are not more than two people on the right side, he ignored it directly.

Feelings, that is also a place to be a casual part?

Just when Zhou Qi was puzzled.

The bookkeeper added: "That's where the small account gifts are recorded." ”

Implication.

Even his own gifts are not worthy of being recorded in his book?

After Zhou Qi realized what he meant, he only felt a burst of fire.

"A horse of silk cloth costs a hundred taels of silver."

"Even if this is placed in the capital, it must be a valuable gift that can only be given by blood relationship."

Zhou Qi said with a gloomy face: "Are you deceiving me from other places and not understanding the rules?" ”

"Don't be angry, guest."

The bookkeeper hurriedly raised the ledger in his hand.

"You might as well see for yourself."

"Master Zhai of Dongcheng, with five hundred taels of silver and two pieces of silk!"

"Master Xicheng Wang, with eight hundred taels of silver, two mountain ginseng!"

"Master Zhang of Xicheng, with a thousand taels of silver, ten jars of aged wine!"

"The minimum amount of gift money in my account book is five hundred taels, and your two hundred taels are really ......."

The minimum is five hundred taels, which is still not a gift from others.

If you count the gifts, it has already exceeded this number.

In contrast, the two silk cloths in Zhou Qi's hands are indeed a bit shabby.

It wasn't until this time that Zhou Qi came back to his senses.

No wonder those people looked at him like that.

After doing it for a long time, it's not envy, it's not surprise, it's a proper treat him as a fool.

Li Anmin watched from the side, extremely embarrassed.

He was too lazy to talk nonsense, so he took out two silver tickets from his cuffs and handed them to the bookkeeper.

"Shangjing Li Zhen."

The bookkeeper took the silver ticket and looked at it, and both of them were 1,000 taels.

"Come on, lead the guests into the house!"

He sang loudly again: "Master Li in Beijing, with two thousand taels of silver!" ”

Accompanied by voice.

Immediately, a small servant came to lead Li Anmin.

And in this process, Li Anmin didn't even look at Zhou Qi, as if he didn't know him at all.

Zhou Qi's eyes were resentful, like a little woman who had been scumbag.

Just when Zhou Qi was thinking about whether to chase it.

Suddenly, there was a cacophony outside.

A handsome man with a good temperament walked over surrounded by a man and a woman.

When he got closer, Zhou Qi also recognized one of the men.

Isn't that the stone tiger and stone barbarian who just showed his might in the city?

And so it goes.

The identity of the person who was surrounded by him in the middle is self-evident.

It is the Wolong County Order, Wu Hua Nian.
