Chapter 163: A Day in the City
Mrs. County Order: "It's still preparing, there are no more vegetables in the vegetable market at this time, so I asked the housekeeper to buy them outside the city, so it took a little more time." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The county commander nodded, still believing in his wife's ability to do things: "Don't worry, they probably won't come so early." "The luggage brought back by the county commander from the countryside has already been cleaned, and when the others go home, they must have to deal with these things themselves, so the county magistrate is not in a hurry.
After Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng had disposed of their dirty clothes, a servant came to inform them to eat dinner together.
Wu Yong was a little helpless: "It seems that the county order doesn't plan to let us rest so early." ”
Gongsun Sheng: "This is also human nature, officialdom always has to pay attention to some human relations, and we are guests, so it is not good to give the host too face." ”
Wu Yong nodded: "Then let's hurry up." "Perhaps there was something that needed their help, or the servant would not have informed them so early.
The two came to the place notified by the servant, and the county magistrate sat there alone and tasted tea, obviously very leisurely, and when he saw Wu Yong coming over, he motioned for them to sit opposite him, and the servant quickly served them two teas, these two were obviously the honored guests of the family, and they did not dare to slack off.
The prefectural order: "The priests will also come here today, just to invite you to have a meal, and you can leave at any time after eating." "The county magistrate obviously knew their concerns from the servants, could it be that his image in their minds was so careful.
Wu smiled wryly: "The county magistrate is really considerate. ”
The goosebumps in the county order are about to come out: "Okay, okay, I won't blame you, if you have any ideas in the future, just say it directly, otherwise I wouldn't have invited it tonight." ”
Wu Yong explained: "It's okay tonight, as long as it's not too late, after all, everyone just came back, and it's time to rest." ”
The county magistrate said "um" and continued to drink tea.
Within half an hour, the priests came over one after another, and when they saw that Wu Yong was also there, they came over to say hello, and then they moved freely, obviously they often came to the county commander's house, and they were very familiar with this place.
Wu Yong didn't expect them to be so comfortable, and said a little helplessly: "It seems that we are thinking too much." ”
The county magistrate glanced at them: "I've done this before, except for you, no one else has an opinion, okay?" ”
The county magistrate then brought someone over to serve the food, and pulled the county magistrate to ask him not to talk like this.
The county magistrate stood up and beckoned them to take their seats: "Okay, everyone come and eat, I won't say much today, just to reward everyone for their hard work during this time, and then I will continue to trouble everyone for a while." ”
The priests said very respectfully: "No trouble, no trouble, let the adults break the bank." "Obviously, this table of good food costs a lot, and they know the approximate price even if they don't go to the market much.
Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng expressed their gratitude among them, and then everyone let go of their stomachs to eat, and the county order did not interfere with them much, and focused on exchanging feelings with their own wife, and everyone was not surprised.
This is also the reason why they are willing to work under the county commander, although he often keeps everyone busy, but he is quite easy-going in private.
Wu Yong was also a little surprised when he saw the county order like this for the first time.
After the meal, the county magistrate really didn't keep them longer, and directly told them: "Go back early, you have to get up early tomorrow morning." ”
The priests said goodbye to them one after another and left, and Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng stayed behind to help clean up.
The county magistrate's wife motioned for them to hurry back and rest: "It's enough to have servants here, you still have to do things tomorrow, so let's rest early." "For these two good talents, Mrs. County Ling still takes good care of them.
When the prefectural magistrate heard his wife say this, he also said, "Go back." "Don't take away your lady's attention here.
Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng inexplicably felt that they were disliked, but they didn't insist and went back to their respective rooms together.
Early the next morning, when Wu Yong got up early to exercise, he met the county magistrate, who was actually boxing, and he looked very vigorous.
After Wu Yong practiced the Tai Chi that he barely remembered, he watched the performance of the county magistrate on the side.
The county commander persevered to the end under Wu Yong's gaze, and Wu Yong leaned in and asked, "Is this the boxing technique that Lao Dutou taught you?" ”
County order: "The power of people who practice martial arts is really good, it's just a showmanship to me, it's just to strengthen the body, but your set of boxing techniques is soft and charming, and Gongsun Sheng taught you, right?"
In the view of the county order, the set of Tai Chi used by Wu has a Taoist rhythm and is very suitable for self-cultivation.
Wu Yong: "This was originally created by Taoism, but it was not taught to me by Gongsun Sheng, I taught it by myself." This is what Wu Yong learned from the old man in the park in modern times, but she didn't practice again after she got busy, otherwise she wouldn't have come to this world, and now in order to avoid her untimely death, Wu Yong decided to pick it up and continue practicing.
County order: "Then you have to persevere, it's useless to give up halfway." ”
After the two exchanged ideas, they went to have breakfast together, Gongsun Sheng had been waiting there for a long time, and after the three of them finished eating, they went out to the county government together.
Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng went to the county government just to make a point, and then went out directly, and the first one they went to visit was Ximen Qing's house.
Fortunately, after Ximenqing heard that they were back, he didn't go out in the morning, and asked the people in the concierge to pay attention to whether anyone was coming to visit.
When he heard that they were useless, he hurried out.
After Wu Yong greeted him, he directly explained his intention: "We are here to make you pay taxes today." ”
Ximenqing motioned for them to follow him: "Well, I'm ready, are you free for dinner today?"
Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng said while following inside: "I don't know yet, if things go well, I will be free, and we will come to you when the time comes." "After eating Ximenqing so many times, it's time for them to invite back.
Ximen Qing handed over a small box of silver to Wu Yong and asked them to count it in person.
Wu Yong was not polite, he counted it carefully, asked Gongsun Sheng to count it again, and then pasted a seal, which was to be sent to the silver treasury to be sealed, and they didn't dare to be sloppy at all.
Ximen Qingliu sent them out after drinking a cup of tea, after all, they were very busy today.
Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng spent a whole day walking through the rich households in the county, because of the previous visits, they were very happy when they paid taxes, even if some people couldn't get together for the time being, they also said that they would personally send it to the county seat when the time came, Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng were quite early when they returned to the county office.
