"It's really cold this year."
Walking on the street of Anning County, county magistrate Liu greeted skillfully and looked up at the sky from time to time. These days, we depend on heaven for food. If God wants to clean up people, there will be starving people everywhere. As a court official, he may not be hungry, but if there is a big problem, the evaluation will be very ugly.
Of course, Li Bai understands these principles, but he can say it too deeply. He can only vaguely nod his head and say, "yes, I heard it's colder in the north this year."
"Isn't it? Those nomads don't know how many animals will freeze to death this winter."
"Isn't there another war in the north?" Li Baishun stroked down his words. Sure enough, Liu county magistrate's face became ugly. The five Zhou Dynasty is the dynasty of scholars, but those who go to officialdom after the imperial examination have their own aura on their heads. In short, state affairs, family affairs and world affairs are all their worries.
However, this worry is internal and a sweet burden they are willing to bear. What qualifications do petty officials like Li Bai have to worry about? Even now, as soon as Li Baicai opened his mouth, county magistrate Liu frowned and scolded: "you don't have to worry about these things. Do your own job well. Let's talk about the four people in black."
The Liao family courtyard without lintel finally arrived. Li Bai was relieved. However, after entering the door, he was surprised to find that Li Luoyang was not at home.
"I'll find it now."
"Where can I find it?" county magistrate Liu looked down at his shoes and looked angry. He knew he wouldn't do anything close to the people today. Wouldn't it be good to come in a sedan chair? He had to go back for a white trip. This pair of official boots had to be brushed again. This time, he lost his own money.
Just when he didn't know what to do in worship, he suddenly heard the voice of someone from the next door. He was listening carefully. Who was it, not Li Luoyang.
"My Lord, I'll go and get him back!"
"Where to catch?" county magistrate Liu is not deaf. When he hears the voice of the next door, there are two children, including a girl. Since he has a heart of flattery, he will never ruin his reputation in front of Li Luoyang, so he stopped Li Bai's idea and prepared to go to Lao Zhu's house next door in person.
At this time, Li Luoyang is chatting with Zhu Ying. Today, he can finally buy fresh fish at Lao Zhu's house. The butcher doesn't lie. Lao Zhu's house does keep fresh river fish at any time. The only pity for Li Luoyang is that he still can't see Lao Zhu.
Zhu Ying's parents were also at home, but they didn't go out in the cold, so when county magistrate Liu and Li Bai knocked on the door, the little girl went to open the door.
"Two masters"
County Magistrate Liu and Li Bai are not young. Although Zhu Ying has not read a book, she still understands the basic politeness. Li Luoyang saw Li Bai at a glance, and then smelled the official flavor of county magistrate Liu, which is much stronger than that of Zhang Ling.
"It's a senior official of Anning county. Is this a private visit in micro clothes?" Li Luoyang thought a few times, but his face still pretended that he didn't see anything. He went to Li Bai and called "Uncle", and then stared at county magistrate Liu honestly.
"Who's here?"
It's normal for Lao Zhu's family to greet Li Luoyang alone, but when Li Bai and Liu county magistrate come, it's impolite for Zhu Ying to greet them again.
Besides, old Zhu with white hair doesn't know the county magistrate.
Lao Zhu, still holding a shuttle and fishing line in his hand, hurried to give a big gift as soon as he saw clearly the appearance of county magistrate Liu.
"No gifts, no gifts."
County Magistrate Liu modestly stepped forward to help Lao Zhu. After all, they are still more than ten or twenty years away. Respecting the old and loving the young is a virtue of the Chinese nation.
"Lao Zhu, I haven't tasted River fresh for a long time." while chatting with Lao Zhu, county magistrate Liu went to see Li Luoyang. He wanted to make a good impression in front of Li Luoyang. Unfortunately, Li Luoyang didn't know what county magistrate Liu planned. He looked at the two carp he carried in his hand and quickly hid behind him.
Li Luoyang's move made Zhu Ying cover her mouth and Li Bai stare. County magistrate Liu pretended not to see anything, while Zhu old man couldn't stop blowing his beard!
"Adults want to eat river food. Say, even if they don't keep it at home, I'll get it from the river immediately."
"No, no, I'm just talking casually." of course, county magistrate Liu didn't come to buy fish. He came to Li Luoyang.
"You are Luoyang from Lijia village. It is said that you are beautiful and intelligent. Today, you really deserve your reputation!"
Lao Zhu is a little silly, and Li Bai is also silly. Only Zhu Ying can't hear the flattery. He just simply recognizes the words of county magistrate Liu: brother Luoyang is handsome, smart and can make up grasshoppers.
"Uncle"
Li Luoyang pulled Li Bai's sleeve with a "overwhelmed" look. His move made Li Bai cry and laugh. Li Luoyang is not this virtue as usual. It is clear that he is pretending.
"This is Lord Liu, the parent official of Anning county. Don't hurry to salute Lord Liu!" Li Bai taught Li Luoyang with a straight face. However, Liu county magistrate over there can't wait to start criticizing Li Bai. Don't be too strict with young people. It's still the king's way to "be earnest and kind".
"It's the county magistrate. Li Luoyang has seen the county magistrate. I beg the county magistrate to decide for the boy and find the boy's mother and brother as soon as possible!"
Li Luoyang jumped up and hugged county magistrate Liu's thigh. The strong contrast stunned everyone, especially county magistrate Liu. After Li Luoyang hugged his thigh, he didn't know where to put his hands.
"Luoyang. My good nephew, get up first. Let's take a long-term view of what's going on."
For other things, county magistrate Liu must agree. The key is to get Lin Luoshui back. I'm afraid it's not easy. Just think about the two names of "Chang'an" and "Luoyang", county magistrate Liu will fully feel what a big head is.
"Isn't your adult a parent official? You should ask your adult to make decisions about these things of the grass people! Although the grass people haven't been in Anning County for a long time, they have heard that there has been a great master in Anning County in the past three years, referring to the county magistrate!"
Master Qingtian is a hat that all officials are willing to wear, but since ancient times, there are few hats worthy of the name. Although county magistrate Liu knew that Li Luoyang was flattering, he was helpless. He felt very useful and the whole person was a little floating.
Among the several people, Lao Zhu, the fisherman, was the most ugly at this time. Just now the county magistrate said he wanted to eat river food. Later, he said he was just talking casually. Do you want to eat or not? Would he like to go to the backyard and wrap up the live fish and take it away to the county magistrate later?
Lao Zhu's grandparents are fishermen. He really doesn't understand these things in the system.
"Cough, there are still some exaggerated rumors in the market. I can only say that I work with conscience." county magistrate Liu was modest first, and then asked Li Luoyang if he, as a prodigy, was willing to accept some preferential policies from the Yamen.
Even for weeks, I didn't know what preferential policies the Yamen had. Li Luoyang listened patiently, but there were not many things he was really interested in, nothing more than going to school, practicing martial arts, and eating.
Of course, most of the children who go to the county school have to provide bundle repair for their teachers. However, now there is nothing in the Liao family courtyard.
"Uncle Li, I really want to go to county school?"
After Liu county magistrate left, Li Luoyang reluctantly discussed with Li Bai. Can't he go to the county to study with empty hands? Although teachers are all scholars, scholars are even poorer.
