The county order called Liu Zhutou again.

"From today on, Zhou Heihu will be by your side and trained well for this county. He is young, he can take down the thieves you haven't caught for more than a year, and if you train them well, you will definitely have great achievements in the future. ”

Liu Zhutou glanced at Zhou Heihu and nodded appreciatively, "My lord, my subordinates must cultivate Zhou Heihu well." ”

Zhou Heihu thanked him again.

He also said that he wanted to go home and settle his younger brother, pack up his luggage and come to the county yamen to report in two days.

The prefectural ordinance allowed it.

"No problem, you are an orphan, and your life is difficult, but you still think about your brother, it's really commendable."

As he spoke, he began to write the letter.

"I ordered Tianfeng Village to take care of your brother, you don't have to worry."

Zhou Heihu was overjoyed, "Thank you, Lord County." ”

The county magistrate waved his hand, "Do a good job, just thank the county." ”

"Yes." Zhou Heihu responded happily.

Lin Xirou secretly praised that the county order is not bad.

The prefectural magistrate wrote the letter, took his own seal, and stamped it at the end of the letter.

I don't know if the seal is worn, or if the ink is missing, and the stamp is missing a corner.

The county magistrate shook his head, "Something is missing." ”

He shouted to the attendant outside the door, "Find the little boy and bring his magnifying glass." ”

Lin Xirou was puzzled, what was he going to do?

Not long after, Mu Chengrui came, and when he saw that Lin Xirou was also there, he shouted "Seventh Grandmother" with a smile, and gave the magnifying glass to the county order, "Dad, be careful with it, don't use it badly." ”

The county magistrate glanced at him coldly, pinched up the magnifying glass, and studied the seal.

"I still use this mirror to see clearly, and sure enough, it is a little worn, and I have to change the seal."

"Dad, will you give me back? I'm still useful. Mu Chengrui began to urge.

The county magistrate had a calm face, "You kid! ”

He glanced at Lin Xirou and suppressed his anger.

But Mu Chengrui ignored his father's face, and kept standing at the table to remind him that his father should return the magnifying glass.

The face of the county order is getting more and more ugly.

Lin Xirou couldn't help but want to laugh.

It turned out that the county order intended to study the seal in order to deceive Mu Chengrui's magnifying glass.

She took a reading glasses from the space and gave it to the county magistrate, "My lord, use this to see more clearly." ”

The county order is in his fifties, and people of this age have presbyopia six or seven times out of ten.

The prefectural order had never seen such an object, and he didn't know how to use it, "What is this?" ”

"Use this object to read the scroll, the handwriting is clear, which is better than Chengrui's magnifying glass." Lin Xirou opened the temples and placed them on the bridge of the nose of the county order.

The county magistrate looked down at the seal, and it was really clear.

He was pleasantly surprised, "Good thing! ”

Lin Xirou said again, "However, you can't look up at the sun when you wear this thing, it will hurt your eyes." This is given to me by my master in the capital, there is only one piece, suitable for the elderly, and I will send it to you today. ”

The county order was taken down and looked left and right, and couldn't put it down, "So, thank you Aunt Seven." ”

Lin Xirou pointed at Zhou Heihu, "The adult accepted him, I should give the adult a gift, no need to thank you." ”

Li Shen attaches great importance to the cultivation of the Zhou family brothers, presumably because he wants to cultivate them into left and right hands.

Let Zhou Heihu be an errand here in the county order today, for the sake of Li Shen's identity as the "seventh uncle of the county order", the county order will definitely cultivate Zhou Heihu well.

In fact, the county order to accept Zhou Heihu was not to please Li Shen, but to please Lin Xirou.

He originally thought that if he would please Lin Xirou and pretend to be pitiful, he would be able to ask for a magnifying glass to read the small characters on the books and seals.

His eyes are getting worse and worse, and his office work is becoming more and more difficult.

If you are sick, you can be cured, but when you are old, your eyes are spent, and it is an old disease that cannot be cured.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xirou sent a more practical one.

He was overjoyed.

It was getting late, and the county order kept Lin Xirou and Zhou Heihu to rest in the mansion and return to the village tomorrow morning.

Lin Xirou agreed.

When he left early the next morning, the prefectural commander gave a horse as a thank you gift.

This is exactly what Lin Xirou wants, with horses, it is more convenient for Li Shen to travel.

.

Leaving the county yamen, Lin Xirou bought some daily necessities on the side of the street, and left the county seat with Zhou Heihu.

The car was empty when it went back.

It's much faster.

In the evening, they returned to the village.

Lin Xirou drove the donkey cart, and the jubilant Zhou Heihu sat on the horse and followed behind.

When the villagers saw Zhou Heihu's horse, they were surprised and said, "Heihu, did you buy a horse?" Awesome, capable! ”

A few days ago, Zhou Heihu beat a roe deer and caught a pair of sika deer, which were enough to exchange for a horse.

So the villagers were not surprised to see him on horseback.

Zhou Heihu patted the horse's back and said, "Ah, no, it was given to Sister-in-law Lin and Brother Mu Sheng by the county magistrate." ”

"So that's the case, Lin Niangzi and Mu Langjun are relatives of the county magistrate, so they sent the horses, right?"

"No, it's not." Lin Xirou glanced at Zhou Heihu and said with a smile, "I gave the black tiger to the county commander, and the county commander gave me a horse as a return gift." ”

"What?" The villagers didn't understand.

"In a few days, the black tiger is going to Yamen on an errand, and the county magistrate designated Liu Zhutou to accept him as an apprentice." Lin Xirou said.

When I entered the county yamen, I was eating a public meal.

A fixed income of twenty-five taels of silver a year, plus some tips, and three meals.

This is much better than farming in the village.

"Ah, the black tiger is out of breath."

The people in the village congratulated Zhou Heihu.

Someone also said, "Black Tiger, in the future, my family will go to the Yamen to fight a lawsuit, you have to help me." ”

Zhou Heihu has been discriminated against since he was a child, and for the first time he was respectfully respected by the villagers along the road, he was happy in his heart, "It's easy to say." ”

Returned home.

Zhou Heiniu, who was tiptoeing at the gate of the courtyard, ran towards them quickly, "Sister-in-law Lin, eldest brother, you are back!" Ah, there really is a big horse! ”

Zhou Heiniu passed by excitedly and touched the horse.

Zhou Heihu rushed to his younger brother to introduce the horse's temper, "It has a good temper, it doesn't kick or bite." ”

Li Shen walked out of the courtyard on crutches and looked at Lin Xirou, "Did the county order accept the black tiger?" ”

"You got it?" Lin Xirou smiled, "The people in the village are so fast-mouthed. ”

When they entered the village, they were stopped by the villagers.

Come to think of it, someone with fast feet and fast mouth told Li Shen the news that she had won a horse and Zhou Heihu entered the yamen.

"Hmm." Li Shen nodded.

"Brother Mu Sheng, the county magistrate wants me to go to the yamen on an errand." Zhou Heihu said excitedly.

Li Shen bowed his head, "My leg is almost healed, you should indeed find another errand to make a living, the county magistrate appreciates you, you have to work hard." ”

"Got it, Brother Mu Sheng." Zhou Heihu nodded seriously.

"I didn't tell you beforehand, you're not going to be angry, are you?" Lin Xirou blinked and looked at Li Shen.

Li Shen raised his eyebrows, "How come?" ”

"I guessed it." Lin Xirou pursed her lips and smiled, "You accepted them, not for servants, but for assistants, so the county order asked me for a black tiger, and I immediately agreed." ”

Li Shen raised his eyes to look at her, she was really smart and understood his thoughts.

It's just that she doesn't know that she doesn't understand his further plans.
