"Constable Qin?"

"It's me." Qin Zheng touched the Hu dregs on his face and said with a bitter smile, "can't I recognize him like this?"

It's not only hard to recognize, it's like a changed person.

In front of him, Qin Zheng was bony, and his face was even thinner. Fortunately, he was in good spirits.

Li Changting saw his standing posture a little twisted, "what's wrong with your feet?"

Qin Zheng looked at his right foot and said, "I was injured when I killed the mountain bandit the year before last."

Had it not been for the inconvenience, Qin Zheng would have come two days ago.

Li Changting: "after the drought, where have you been living?"

Qin Zheng: "Sifang village, my hometown is Sifang village. I've been hiding under the ground for the past two years. I'm looking forward to a better world this year."

Li Changting thinks that nearly a hundred people have survived in Sifang village. He thinks that Qin Zheng should be responsible for this. Qin Zheng is upright and can distinguish right from wrong. If he gets bad, he will come back to help the county master work for the tiger instead of working with everyone in silence. He is still as thin as a ghost.

Li Changting thought about it and said, "I'm short of someone here. Do you have any interest?"

Qin Zheng originally wanted to say hello and leave. After all, he couldn't say it without saying hello. Now he heard Li Changting's words and asked suspiciously, "who are you short of?"

Li Changting: "lack of a county magistrate."

Qin Zheng

If Qin Zheng didn't know Li Changting's character, he thought Li Changting was joking with him.

Qin Zheng said that he did not understand: "brother Li, you should know that the captor is not in the official establishment and does not belong to the court officials, so I am not qualified to be a county magistrate."

Li Changting: "if you are willing to be a magistrate, then you are. I'm an imperial envoy. It's OK to recommend someone to be a magistrate."

Qin Zheng did not understand: "Why me?"

Li Changting: "you have experience, know the rules, easy to use, in addition to you, I can't find the right person."

Qin Zheng did not expect that he was just polite to say hello, but such a big pie fell from the sky, which made him feel dizzy.

At half an hour, Qin Zheng said cautiously, "can I go back and think about it and give you a reply tomorrow?"

Li Changting nodded in agreement.

Although Qin Zheng went back to think about it, he had already agreed.

Compared with doing farm work and drudgery, handling cases and managing yamen are his strengths. This is a rare opportunity. Now Qingfeng town is full of waste, and he also has his own ambition. He hopes to lead everyone to a good life of food and clothing.

The next day, Qin Zheng went to see Li Changting. Li Changting said that the appointment document would come down in half a month. By the way, he asked Duanmu Xiang to show him his feet.

Qin Zheng didn't hope for his own feet at all. He was surprised at the efficiency of the imperial court. In the past, it took two or three months for him to appoint local officials.

After the Duanmu ring checked, he said, "only 80% can be recovered."

"What?" Qin Zheng jumped and asked in surprise, "I Can my foot recover? "

Duanmu ring face calm: "at least normal walking no problem."

Qin Zheng was stunned by the surprise, and only half a sound came back to him. He was grateful to Li Changting and Duanmu.

Duanmu Xiang applied medicine to Qin Zheng's needle. He told him not to touch water or do heavy work for the first three days. After three days, he soaked his feet with medicine every day. After three months, he could get better. However, if he wants to recover to 80% of Duanmu Xiang's point, he still needs to stick to the medication for a year.

As long as he can recover a little, this year and two years is nothing for Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng's whole foot was numb after he was put in a needle and applied medicine. He was asked to ask two brothers to come and carry him back.

Duanmu ring came out after washing his hands. Suddenly he pulled Li Changting and pointed out: "look."

Li Changting looked in the direction of Duanmu's fingers, and saw that Hu Zi was talking to Xiao Zhiyin. He was so honest with a smile.

"What are you looking at?" Li Changting didn't understand what Duanmu Xiang wanted him to see.

"Beard, you see how he laughs. He's a happy flower." Duanmu rang touched his chin, "it's really spring."

Li Changting first picked his eyebrows, then carefully looked at the state of his beard and Xiao Zhiyin. It seemed that he was more attentive than usual.

"Are you sure?" Li Changting was a little skeptical. After all, he was just a little attentive, which didn't mean anything.

"Just ask." Duanmu said with a smile. He really went to pull his beard over. While there was no outsider around, he asked directly, "do you like Miss Xiao?"

Beard a listen, Leng for a while: "have so obvious?"

Duanmu xiangchong Li Changting raised his eyebrows: Look!

Beard shyly smile, some distressed to scratch his head, said: "you say, on my condition, she can see me?"

Li Changting thought that his daughter-in-law once said that Xiao Zhiyin didn't even like Yu poming. Could he like beard? Obviously not.But Li Changting won't say it. After all, it's a bit hurtful.

Duanmu Xiang patted his beard on the shoulder, sighed sympathetically, pointed to Li Changting and said, "if you can grow his face, people can paste it back to you. Believe it or not."

Beard:???

Li Changting kicked Duanmu and warned him not to talk.

Beard: "why should I look like brother Li? Do you mean brother Li is handsome? There's no way The appearance was given by my parents, and I don't think Miss Xiao is a person who can judge people by their appearance. It's the first time I've seen such a capable and intelligent woman... "

Duanmu ring: "isn't Xu Qing also very capable and intelligent? Why don't you pay so much attention to Xu Qing? To put it bluntly, if you don't like people at the first sight, how can you have a chance to understand so many advantages behind them?"

When he thought about it, he felt that the woman was elegant and special when he saw Xiao Zhiyin for the first time.

Beard asked, "but what are you trying to say?"

Duanmu rang: "do you think you have a good impression on Miss Xiao?"

Moustache touched his own moustache and suddenly came up to the bronze mirror not far away. He looked at himself carefully.

"How old do I look?"

"Forty."

"Go away, I'm only twenty-nine!"

Although Li Changting didn't say anything, he shared the gossip with Xu Qing after he went back.

Xu Qing's expression is hard to explain at first. The uncle with the beard looks like Well, I don't want to mention it, but beard's character is really good, lively, enthusiastic, cheerful and upright.

Although she did not hold any hope in her heart, she thought that if Xiao Zhiyin could be with beard, she would be very happy in the future.

Xiao Zhiyin has a rough love road. It's not easy to meet someone who really likes her.

Xu Qing is just worried that after Xiao Zhiyin has experienced so many setbacks, it is difficult to open her heart again.
