Xiao Qingyue saw that the account books and silver of He Lichang had already been placed on the side, and thought to herself, maybe Uncle Li was ready to give up his seat a long time ago.

"Brother Lobby, rest assured, my brother will live up to your high expectations."

He Dazhong happily held the account books and silver in his arms, things went very well, although He Liang was puzzled in his heart, he didn't think deeply, and then stood up and said goodbye.

"Wait!" Xiao Qingyue spoke up at this time.

"What else do you have to do?" He Dazhong was in a good mood, so he asked.

"It's nothing, I just hope that the new adult can stop the people in the village, the government has no conclusions, chew the root of the tongue one by one, otherwise I won't be soft when I hear it."

He Dazhong, the new official, was looking for something to do when he took office, and when he heard Xiao Qingyue say this, he hurriedly said, "You are right about this, you can't spread things that are inconclusive, and within two days, I will make the village quiet." ”

His confident appearance made Xiao Qingyue very disdainful, obviously the people in the village talked about him, but this would pretend to be a righteous face, which was really disgusting.

After everyone left, Xiao Qingyue asked He Lichang, "Uncle, are you deliberately not the chief here?" ”

"It's not intentional, it's just that He Dazhong knows how many catties and taels he has. Next month it's almost time to cut the wheat and pay the tax, and then you will see how many people will not pay their taxes on time. When he arrives in the county, you will see how those people in the county government will make it difficult for him, in previous years, there was no relationship between the third child and the county master, and I had to spend two dollars when I went back to the county government. ”

Nowadays, the imperial court collects taxes, and the village chiefs collect them on their behalf, and then send them to the county government after collecting them. Naturally, the village chiefs don't dare to make a moth on taxes, but they can't stand the bones in other people's eggs. If the people who collect taxes from the county government deliberately say that your wheat is not good, so as to make you bleed, you can only bear it.

"I see."

He Li Chang smiled, "Girl, look, when the third child comes back, how he took the chief away, how to send me back." ”

"But I don't know when the third child will come back." Zheng muttered.

"I'm afraid there are still some days, and he said before he left, if it is fast, it will be mid-July."

Xiao Qingyue hoped that he could come back earlier, but the capital was really far away from Jiangbei, and it would take more than 20 days to ride a fast horse.

——

In a certain house in Jingzhou City, a man in only underwear leaned on the bed, his eyes staring at the purse in his hand.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and someone reported outside, "Son, the letter from Minjiang has been sent to Jingzhou." ”

"Bring it in."

The man on the bed put away his purse.

When someone came in, he took the letter and looked at it, and then sneered coldly, "Interesting, not long after the master left the Minjiang River, someone couldn't wait to put a basin on the master's head." ”

"Childe, I don't know what's going on?"

"After the death of the sixth daughter-in-law of He Lao, the daughter-in-law of the Ding family in the town also died, and some people saw the murderer wearing a mask, no, they all think that I am the murderer, the people of the Ding family besiege the county government all day long, and let our county magistrate order me to arrest me."

Well, these two people are none other than Xiao Qingyue and Zheng who are talking about how they haven't come back yet.

Hearing the rain, I was happy to think of the purpose of their entry into Beijing this time and the things they encountered.

Whoever planted the blame on their master's head had to be done this time.

He Jinhuai continued to read the letter, and when he saw the part where Xiao Qingyue beat Xiao Jiang, he laughed, she was still so protective of him.
