Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Toddler Cries at Night
"Lord Shi, you said that our county magistrate who has not yet arrived is not coming. ”
As soon as Su Mo drove the carriage past the crowd, there was a person in the crowd who spoke.
In fact, when Su Mo had just entered the city, he didn't make it clear to Su Ruyu that these people standing at the gate of the city were all wearing the autocratic official mansion of the Great Chu Rite Department!
It's like the person who is talking at this time is the master of Taopu County, and the Lord Shi in his mouth is the county master of Taopu County.
"That's right, Lord Shi, the date mentioned in the news from the court is the last day today, if you don't come again, this will be a violation of the will!"
The county lieutenant who was standing on the other side of Shi Xiancheng also spoke, and there was still some impatience in his tone, in order to greet this county magistrate, but after standing here for more than ten days, they didn't see the figure of this county magistrate.
"Zhang and Jiang, don't be impatient, our Taopu County has been vacant for all these years, but this suddenly airborne county order has come here, don't you think it's strange? What's more, this is the county commander who has not yet appeared and is still surnamed Su!"
Compared with the other two, this Shi Xiancheng's qi cultivation kung fu is too much stronger than them, and he has waited for ten days and a half in a row, and he has not seen any dissatisfaction, no wonder he can be the second-in-command of Taopu County!
"Lord Shi, if it weren't for the fact that this person surnamed Su was here, why would we be delaying all these days here?
The county lieutenant, who had a slightly fiery temper, said.
"But, in my opinion, this newly arrived county magistrate has nothing to do with that Su Xiang, don't make a fuss when you see him from the capital, but if he has a relationship with the prime minister, he will not be sent to our Taopu County, that is, staying in the capital as a gatekeeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion is better than coming to Taopu County as a county magistrate!"
The master Zhang, who looked more like a teacher, analyzed it reasonably.
"You know a fart, this is called gilding! The officials in the capital are not fools, and they are not looking for death if they stuff their sons and nephews into the official yamen in front of the emperor. If you come out for a few years and then go back, it will be logical, even the emperor can't say anything!"
In this regard, Master Zhang asked with doubts.
"Then according to what Lord Shi said, this person is not only not an inconsequential little person, but a big man with a lot of background?"
But what this Master Zhang didn't expect was that Master Shi still didn't agree with his statement.
"It's hard to say, according to past experience, the children of the official families in the capital want to gild and go to the kind of big county with developed commerce and trade, but why do they come to our small Taopu County?
Lord Shi's expression was very emotional, as if he felt that the deception in the capital was too sinister, and even the people of the Minister of State were not stable, but he never imagined in his life that this was done by the Minister of State himself.
Master Shi looked up at the sky, and only when he felt that his attitude of knowing everything about the world was almost displayed, he withdrew his gaze and said to the people around him.
"No matter what the background of this person is, it is not something we can afford to provoke, if you can not conflict with him in the future, don't provoke him, if there is a real contradiction, you have to endure him for three points, otherwise, don't say that I won't save you when the knife is on your neck!"
"Thank you for your teachings. ”
The people around him bowed down to him in unison, and the vanity in his heart was satisfied, and his expression was extremely enjoyable.
......
"Hey, it's strange, it's still time to go to the yamen! Why is there no one in this yamen!"
The words were divided into two ends, and when the carriage driven by Su Mo arrived at the county government of Taopu County, he found that there was not even a duty official here, which was so cold that Su Ruyu suspected that the county government of Taopu County had moved to another place.
"Anyone? Anyone?"
Su Moke was not as quiet as Su Ruyu, he shouted directly in this hall, and as soon as Su Ruyu wanted to stop him, he saw a chef in charge of a spoon wearing an apron running out from behind the yamen.
"What are you howling? What are you howling! The county lord is going to greet the new county order, don't you know? If you don't come out to talk to you, it's not over, is it!"
"Hey, I said you're a cook, don't you know anyone! This county magistrate is standing in front of you, how dare you speak?"
The cook glanced up and down at Su Mo and Su Ruyu a few times, and three words appeared in his eyes: Ghost only believes!
"Come on, just the two of you are still the county magistrate? Is it you? Or is he? Now that the county magistrate is not here, I will pretend not to hear, get out! Get out! I'm still boiling soup behind me! Don't miss my time later." ”
"Yo, I'm so short-tempered, you dog looks down on people, if Lao Tzu doesn't teach you a good lesson, you will really treat Lao Tzu as a charlatan!"
As Su Mo spoke, he snatched the burden from Su Ruyu's hand, took out the edict representing the imperial court appointment letter and smashed it into the man's face.
"Stinky cook, see clearly, do you know the words?"
Of course, the cook didn't know how to read, but that didn't prevent him from knowing the seal of the ministry! No one dared to copy this thing, and if people knew it, they would be beheaded.
"Ahh......h This... It turned out that the county magistrate had arrived, but the county lord and they all went to the city gate to greet you, which I... I..."
After knowing Su Ruyu's identity, the yamen cook, who had just been invincible, was so nervous that he couldn't speak, and then he seemed to think of some way to get out.
"Lord County, I'm going to call the Lord County Cheng and them back, you wait, wait a minute!"
Before he finished speaking, he ran away, if he could keep this speed, it would be a waste of talent not to do a quick catch.
Until the man ran away, Su Ruyu, who had a warm smile from beginning to end, lowered his face.
"Su Mo, why didn't you remind me where the county lord was when I was in the capital just now!"
Su Ruyu's eyes erupted with anger, like an erupting volcano, and even Su Mo in the Sanpin realm was frightened by him.
"Childe, you... You can't blame me, I... I just reminded you that there are a bunch of people at the gate of the city, and you said that if you are not beautiful, don't call you that. ”
"Then they are all wearing my Da Chu's official uniform, and you can't recognize them!"
Su Mo's voice became smaller and smaller, like mosquitoes surrounding Su Ruyu.
"A group of petty officials who are not in the stream, I have never seen such ugly official uniforms in the capital, I can't recognize them, can you blame me?"
Su Ruyu sneered.
"Then what do you mean by this, do you blame your son and me?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, son, I have to blame those officials in Taopu County for this, they go to pick up people, and they don't know how to set up a sign!"
Su Mo's brain is not slow, and he suddenly put the responsibility on others.
When the Shi County Cheng ran back to the yamen with the rest of the officials out of breath, Su Ruyu's face was like a spring breeze again.
Qi is sprinkled on one's own family, and outsiders still have to protect their image when they are present.
"Shi Linwu, Zhang Boday, Jiang Hanlin. I guess I remember the names of a few adults in my head!"
Looking at the three of them who were out of breath, Su Ruyu said as gently as possible.
"Sue... Master Su came from afar, and he had to bother to write down the names and surnames of the three of us, which was really hard to worry about. ”
As the second-in-command in the county and the backbone of everyone, Shi Linwu stood up and spoke.
"What did Master Shi say, the three of them are above my junior in terms of age and qualifications, and there are still many things to ask the three of them for advice in the future in official business!"
"Don't ask for advice, what does Master Su don't understand, just ask the official. ”
Since Shi Linwu and them came in, the smile on Su Ruyu's face has never disappeared, as the son of the Prime Minister who has not needed to flatter others since he was a child, it is really difficult for him.
"When I entered the city today, I failed the kindness of your lordships because of my negligence, so let's do it! Please Lord Shi lead the way to the best restaurant in this county, and I will set up a table for everyone to compensate for it. ”
Hearing Su Ruyu's words, Shi Linwu's eyes lit up, he was actually most afraid that this county magistrate from the capital would not be able to serve him, but from the current point of view, this county magistrate is still very good at talking!
"Master Su, you are a guest when you come from afar, and you can still break the bank there, this money should be paid by me Shi!"
The two said polite words and walked out of the gate of the county government, but Zhang Boyang, who was walking behind, stretched out his hand and touched Jiang Hanlin next to him.
"Hey, it seems that this county magistrate doesn't have a tendency to ask new officials to take office and burn three fires!"
"How can you be sure he's not saluting before soldiering?"
After Jiang Hanlin finished speaking, he didn't pay attention to Zhang Boyang, but quickly followed Shi Linwu and the others in front.
......
"Hey, old man, you touch my wounds, you don't know how to be careful!"
Since the last time the two dogs rescued the two masters and servants of Na'an Junyi, they have not been delayed on the road, all the way to Youzhou, these days have arrived at Hualiu County in Youzhou, and then go out, and they will arrive at Chixia County, where the Xinyi Sect is located.
They rushed to Hualiu City, the county town of Hualiu County, this evening, and it is estimated that the ancients were troublesome (more than a word, in fact, the author was too lazy to think of the name), so they used the name of the county of Hualiu County as the name of the city.
After wandering around the city several times, they were unable to find a hotel to stay in.
"What the fuck are you called? I don't know what you think? The wound has long healed, isn't it just an excuse to lie on your master's back and I don't want to come down? I don't know how old I am when I think about your master."
"Hehe, old man, you are called old and strong! You see that you have carried me all these days, I have never seen you gasp for breath, in my opinion, you can live for at least thirty years! No, at least fifty years!"
Lying on someone's back, of course the second dog had to say something polite, otherwise he would be thrown down, but the old man obviously didn't know how to appreciate it.
"Hmph! If you can be angry with me a few times, Lao Tzu can live for a hundred years!"
"Hey, hey, where can this be!"
When the second dog spoke, he pretended to be embarrassed and twisted on the old man's back.
"Woooooo
Just as the master and apprentice were talking without a word, there was a cry of a baby in front of them, followed by the sound of a woman shouting.
"My child!"
"Old man, go and see what's going on!"
Hearing the sound, Ergou jumped off the old man's back as if he had been healed all at once, and there was still a little injured.
"Yo, don't pretend to be sick!"
"Old man, when has this been, and you are still talking about cool things!"
There was eagerness in Ergou's voice.
"Even if you kid has a little conscience, I'll go over and see the situation first, old man. ”
After speaking, the old man's figure disappeared in place, and Ergou quickly followed.
