Chapter 60 Waiting
Zhou Po and others were thrown into the county jail by the county magistrate because they gathered at the gate of the county government to make trouble. After entering, they did not panic.
After the others left, Zhou Madam took out the consistent money from her pocket and waved to the jailer over there: "Little brother, come here!"
The jailer said impatiently: "What are you doing? Just stay inside!"
Mother Zhou knew that, in fact, they would not be recorded, but they were locked up for three or five days, and then they were released.
But who is used to being in jail?
And it's still a mixed prison, if she stays for a day, her reputation will be completely ruined, how can she be a matchmaker in the future?
"Little brother, it's convenient for you to ask me, how much can I get out this time?" Mother Zhou knew that someone like her who didn't commit a serious crime could go out after paying a sum of money.
When the county magistrate was there before, there was no one hundred taels, so don't open that mouth.
Most people can't take it out.
"Twenty taels." The jailer heard that he wanted to exchange money, but his attitude was good.
Cao County Lieutenant is now assisting the imperial envoy to manage the yamen, and these sums of money are all recorded on the record.
is usually used on the yamen and the common people.
After a quarter of an hour, Mother Zhou shook her clothes and walked out of the county jail.
But she only got out of the prison. As the perpetrator, she had to stay in the county government office for a long time, listening to an old pedantic babbling lecture, and then she could go out.
The old pedant despised women very much, and when he saw Mrs. Zhou, he even scolded her for embarrassing her parents and husband's family.
Zhou Po was sitting on the cold bench and heard the old pedant say "not keeping the woman's way" one by one, she gritted her teeth and thought: "Hujia Village, right? You wait for me, this is not over!"
She wants to let the people in this rundown village know that if she offends her Zhou matchmaker, she will have to pay a price!
After their village, no matchmaker will come to the door, and watch them kneel down and beg her!
Zhang Zhan took care of the official business of the county office a little, and walked out of the study, rubbing his shoulders.
"When will Tianjia send the new magistrate? Today, I'm almost done with their magistrate!"
If he knew earlier, he would not take this imperial commissioner's errand. He thought he had chosen a small place with nooks and crannies where he could do some good deeds to accumulate merit, but he stumbled here.
trouble.
He casually asked the servant next to him, "Where is the young master?"
The servant said something, Zhang Zhan went over and saw that Qin Huai was sitting by a gazebo, staring at a pool of water in a daze.
In the early spring, there were only a few tender lotus leaves in the pond, shyly growing by the water.
"How are you playing with that little girl? Do you look like a lucky dumpling? He is also well-behaved and well-behaved, no worse than the ladies in Wanning City."
Qin Huai didn't answer, and Zhang Zhan didn't mind either.
This kid doesn't like to talk, he already knew it.
Zhang Zhan said some things about Xiao Ayu to himself, including letting people find him during the avalanche.
"Speaking of which, she is really my savior." Zhang Zhan said with a smile, "Today, when they came to the county government office, they also wanted me to fulfill the promise. I thought about it, it was not difficult for them to fulfill the promise, but It might be better if I leave it to you to do it."
Having said that, Zhang Zhan will not talk about it.
Qin Huai's fingertips on his knee moved, and his face involuntarily turned to Zhang Zhan's side.
and then?
"Forget it, you probably aren't interested either."
Then, Zhang Zhan left.
Qin Huai pursed his lips, his eyes were filled with unknown emotions.
"Red Armor."
A person jumped from the tree, blocking Zhang Zhan's way coldly, and said to him, "Sir, what do you want the son to do?"
Zhang Zhan was really taken aback. He took two steps back before he stood still, and said in an angry voice, "Your son doesn't ask himself? I think he's always diligent in calling you a day."
The person is not big, but the temper is not small!
Zhang Zhan walked in front of Qin Huai again, and said angrily, "Xing Xing Xing, tell you."
If I hadn't understood Qin Huai's bad temper, I really didn't want to tease him, but after each tease, it was me who was angry.
Thinking about it this way, he probably has a problem with his own mind.
"That little girl is not from Hujia Village. She was picked up by the villagers some time ago. I found out that she is..."
Zhang Zhan briefly explained the origin of Xiao Ayu, and finally said: "Before the little girl grew up, I was afraid that she had suffered a lot of grievances, so it looked like she was two years old, but she was actually four years old. They just wanted to register the child. When she is two years old, give her another identity recognized by the yamen."
Speaking of this, Zhang Zhan added: "I think that the old lady of the Wang family has some knowledge. I thought that it was just one registration, because I was afraid that I would not be able to do much, so she came to me and asked me to improve some information and make the registration book more justifiable. It is inevitable to add some details such as maternal registration and mother-in-law delivery. Aren’t there two people in your Chiwei who are good at this? Let them scrutinize, how can it be more realistic.”
Qin Huai listened silently, but remained silent again.
Zhang Zhan thought he was talking about loneliness, but saw the little boy take out a small token from his arms and put it on the stone table beside him.
"Yo, I'll just say it casually, you kid is really willing! When I was in a hurry, I asked you for this token, but I didn't see you give it—" Seeing that Qin Huai was going to be in a hurry, he hurriedly put the token in his arms, Hehe smiled, "I think that little girl is also lucky, maybe you helped her this time, and you can help you a lot in the future!"
Zhang Zhan just said it casually, but he didn't expect it, but it came true later.
Judging from the information he currently has, the little girl who was registered as Wang Ruyu is indeed a little different.
Not only those golden eyes, but also the deeds she saved several times from danger are worth investigating.
But that's it, he wants to help cover up the traces, as a way to repay her for saving her life.
As far as Zhang Zhan is concerned, the old lady of the Wang family asked him to help cover up Ayu's origin.
Covering up her strangeness is the real reward.
Little Ayu didn't know about this, and she was waiting with old lady Wang to receive the food.
Because there were too many people receiving food, they waited all day, but they were only in the middle of the queue.
The villagers couldn't help but feel a little anxious: "Wait like this, don't get to us, there will be no food!"
Village Chief Hu said: "Don't worry." Master Zhang had sent someone to say that as long as they waited at ease, there must be food.
However, these words cannot be said in front of other people, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
All day long, Xiao Ayu sat on the scooter obediently, neither making noise nor making trouble.
But when she fell asleep, Dango would call her into the space and let her grow food together.
Xiao Ayu first took out the water in the space for everyone to drink, but Mrs. Wang calmly stopped it.
【The impurities on their bodies have not been removed, and they will have diarrhea after drinking water. By then, everyone in your village will have diarrhea. Who will guard these cars? 】
Xiao Ayu thought it made sense, so she stopped thinking about giving everyone water and continued to play with the peonies.
One day in the county seat, everyone eats dry food, but fortunately, the dry food brought can last a day.
Village Chief Hu took out an extra two cents and wanted to buy a meat bun for Xiao Ayu to eat.
Xiao Ayu swallowed at the steamed buns, and Village Chief Hu couldn't help laughing and laughed, so he bought her a steamed bun.
With a penny left, he bought her another bunch of candied haws.
