Chapter 102 The heavy snow is a crowd
Chapter 102: The heavy snow is flying, and it is a crowd
The next day, snow was flying all over the sky, and the snow that started at night did not stop at noon.
The people in Sanshui County gathered together, followed the county magistrate, the county magistrate and a group of others, and stood in the snow three miles outside the Sanshui County town, waiting for the arrival of the new county magistrate.
County Magistrate Zhang wrote some things about the Xinlai County Magistrate yesterday. The whole piece of paper was written about the New County Magistrate's goodness. He said that he loved the people as much as his son, said that he was good at planning, and said that he could bring a better life to the people. He posted it in various parts of the county in the morning. There was a horse in the house, and people who were slightly farther away also rode horses to snow.
The people didn't know that the new county magistrate was going to take a look here yesterday and find a way to find a way to greedy money. I really thought that as the county magistrate wrote, he pulled the person who knew the words to read the contents on the notice and looked happy. County magistrate Zhang only wrote about what to greet at the bottom, and the people rushed over spontaneously.
They don’t have many requirements, as long as they can be like the time of County Magistrate Cheng and the time of this period, they can do odd jobs when they are idle, and having a good New Year is their greatest wish.
Jia Weiran and his father came out yesterday and were going back today. The two of them dared not delay too much. This time they learned their intelligence and brought a few people from their families, and more families were behind, and they drove all the way.
"Dad, what would happen if you waited for the place today? Can you not meet someone who was alone in the past? Then as soon as you took over, many people came to complain, or were there any trivial matters? Your desk was filled with documents, from a few years ago to the present, and it was ten feet tall?"
Jia Weiran said worriedly, thinking for a while and adding: "When you give the order, there are obviously so many yamen runners, but they are not sick. The county magistrate and the lord Bo changed his cleverness yesterday, and they didn't know what kind of person with some power came to find trouble?"
County Magistrate Jia didn't know what could happen. What his son said seemed to be correct. Usually, some people below did not want the people sent from above to use this seemingly simple and very useful method. There were not many people who could survive.
After pondering for a while, he said to his son: "Don't be afraid, I'll find a way to deal with it then."
Jia Weiran was in a bad mood, so he knew that he could only do this.
The people who were following around to protect themselves were not so calm. They were not stupid. They knew that the master had used means to become an official this time, and perhaps they lived in dilapidated houses and did not have good food.
With their own thoughts, the group gradually approached the county town. When they were four miles away, they could not see the situation ahead because of heavy snow. The surrounding area was white, but as the team got closer, everyone finally saw the situation ahead. Countless people stood in the snow and looked at this side.
The people there should have seen them, and led by some people wearing the same clothes, came to us. This scene scared Jia Weiran and others, thinking that they were going to come and besiege them.
"Master, look at the clothes, it should be the yamen runners of Sanshui County, there are so many." A person following the car reported to County Magistrate Jia who was lifting the curtain to look out.
"Well, I saw it, stop." County Magistrate Jia felt a bumpy heart, but he had to act.
"Sanshui County Lord Bo Zhaoxiang (Zhang Mingsheng), came to welcome the county magistrate, welcome the adults, please start." Zhang Mingsheng and Zhao Xiang came to the car at the same time and said to the county magistrate Jia in the car.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the yamen runners and the people also said things to greet each other in a mess at the same time, and gave up the road and stood on both sides.
County Magistrate Jia, who was sitting in the car for no reason, could no longer sit still. Even though he planned to make a fortune here when he came, he had to move to see so many people greeting him in the heavy snow.
The lord is the lord, and it’s okay to say that the county magistrate came to greet him, so he gave himself face. The yamen runners came to him because they were afraid that they would make things difficult for them in the future, but the people also followed him. I don’t know if it was the arrangement of the yamen. No matter what, taking office this time was a glorious.
He couldn't sit still and got out of the car, looking at the yamen runner's serious and respectful expression, and then looking at the people's joy, he immediately knew that the people were not forced to come over, and walked a distance forward, came to a seven- or eight-year-old child who was nestled beside the adults, and squatted down and asked:
"What's the name of the little kid? How old are you? Are you cold?"
The child was a little afraid of having sex, so he hid back and held his father's waist and poked his head out, and said in a crisp voice: "My name is Li Xiaoshu. I'm seven years old, it's cold. When the wind blows, it's cold. My father said that I'm not cold anymore. Are you a good official?"
The child's innocent appearance and slightly trembling body made County Magistrate Jia unable to speak for a moment. He could feel the expected gaze of the people around him. He wanted to say that he was a good official, but he felt that he was against his will. He said that he was not a good official? What a joke.
While the child was waiting, County Magistrate Jia finally spoke, "I don't know if he is a good official, I will do things well."
As he spoke, he untied the cloak on his body, put it on the child's body, touched the child's head, then stood up and said to the person behind him: "Let's walk in with me."
With him leading the way, other people who were originally on the horse also came down and led them away. Jia Weiran followed him foolishly. He thought of many things he would encounter, but he never expected it to be like this. He was surrounded by so many people, and the cold wind was weaker and his body was warmer, but he felt uncomfortable.
After looking at the head Bo and the county magistrate, he could only secretly praise the people for their power. So many people are welcoming them with snow. If they really do something in the future, what will the people say then? The Zhang family and the Wang family have two seventh-rank officials. At that time, they will join forces with one thousand people to write a letter. Not to mention the county magistrate, the governor will have to take it down, especially so close to the capital.
Thinking of this, Jia Weiran came to the county magistrate and whispered: "It's so scheming."
Zhao Mingsheng also replied, "Good official."
After walking three miles, the moment I entered the county town, the sound of gongs and drums and firecrackers began to ring one after another. Many people were waiting along the street. When they saw the new county magistrate coming, they cheered, and the children were also smiling happily and dancing.
County Magistrate Jia smiled and signaled to the people on both sides, but he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. He could think that many people would know about today's events. Maybe there would be praises from the people in the state, or even the people in the court, in a few days, and everyone knew that he was a good official.
Good official? Oh~! Awesome, this is even better than what my son thought before. Good official can't be greedy for money or think about himself, otherwise...
Thinking about things in his mind, the road seemed so long that he finally came to the yamen. He already knew that it looked very glamorous from the outside, and he really didn't know what it was like inside, and his son couldn't find out.
As we entered the main hall, we saw this place well. County Magistrate Jia was quite satisfied. After the handover, the people dispersed happily. The group began to see where they would live in the future, and each of them was not very safe.
"Ah? Dad, this is the place where we live in the future?" When we arrived at the back, Jia Weiran saw the neat bluestone bricks on the ground, the withered flowers and plants on both sides, the beautiful courtyard walls, the newly tiled house, leading to the curved path behind and the erect locust trees. He couldn't believe his eyes.
County Magistrate Jia was also surprised. Looking at the yard that was clearly newly built, he didn't expect that the yamen would treat him like this. He was waiting to bypass the front yard. When he arrived at the second entry behind, he even more doubted whether he had gone to the wrong place.
There are still blue bricks paving roads, with yellow sand on both sides of the road. There is a flower bed on the left and the moon gate leading to another yard on the right. This entry is clean and tidy.
After passing through the moon gate, you will see that the path ahead is bent again, with a small pond and a corridor leading there. There is a pavilion between the pond, and there is a clump of plum blossoms on the other side of the pavilion. Wind chimes are hung straight up in the hexagon, which sounds with the wind.
"Sir, please come here." A yamen runner walked in front and led the magistrate Jia and others to follow the path for a few turns, and came to another place surrounded by the trees, surrounded by some curtains. People around him cleaned the snow from time to time. Before they could see what was inside, a fragrant cucumber smell floated over.
"Sir, this is the cucumber prepared for you. You can pick fresh ones and eat them. Go to the pavilion over there to cook wine and watch the snow and enjoy the plum blossoms." The yamen runner introduced.
"Oh, okay, County Magistrate Zhang, I don't know why this is?" County Magistrate Jia suppressed his shock and asked Zhang Mingsheng who was following behind.
Zhang Mingsheng looked puzzled, "What did you say?"
County Magistrate Jia knew that he did it on purpose, so he had to make it clear and said, "Why did my official place be so good?"
"What the adults are asking about is not that good. You can live in someone else's house. You can't let your family live in the yard. This is what the people in the county mean. Adults are good officials, so of course they have to repair the place for them. It's cold, and if the adults get sick from freezing, the people will suffer."
County Magistrate Zhang Mingsheng told the reason, but no one around believed it.
"Sir, and, from time to time, people will send some ordinary food and food in the yard, which are spontaneously caused by those who are engaged in business." Zhao Xiang added from the side.
"Well, then thank you all the people."
County Magistrate Jia couldn't say anything else. Now he fully understood that the people here, to be precise, the Zhang family just didn't let him greedy for money. All the benefits can be given to you, so that you can live well and provide you with food and drink. Just do your business honestly. As your county magistrate, don't stretch out your hand, otherwise...
