Chapter 235
"So what, this can't be an excuse!"

"Don't you think she came running over in the middle of the night humming?"

"It's reasonable, isn't it?" Su Dai looked straight at her husband, "Ask yourself, since Nan Zai left the master bedroom, how many times have you made trouble for no reason and came to find us halfway?"

Mu Yao was speechless.

Because his son has been fighting against him, he subconsciously wants to completely control people.

As for the child's idea, maybe he considered it, but finally ignored it.

"And before," Su Dai got angry after thinking about it, "he believed in you so much, but you lied to him to work and played tricks on him, how can he not be dissatisfied with you?"

"In the future, I will try my best to change my career."

The tone was reluctant, but in fact, he had already agreed with his wife's statement in his heart.

Su Dai was not used to him, so she pointed to the place next to Nan Zai and said, "You also go face the wall and think about your mistakes, and write a hundred big characters!"

Are you sure it's not outright revenge?

Mu Yao slandered in his heart, but he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face, and stood beside his son dejectedly.

"Daddy also wants to face the wall and think about it?"

Nan Zai turned his head in surprise.

Mu Yao glanced at him, "Do you have an opinion?"

"Do you want to write capital letters too?"

"none of your business!"

Mu Yao had a stinky face and didn't want to talk to his son at all.

Seeing this, Nan Zai immediately understood, "It turns out that Daddy will also be punished, so I know that I am not the only one who is wrong."

After he finished speaking, he covered his mouth and laughed furtively like a mouse eating lamp oil.

Sure enough, mother still loves me!
Thinking of this, the reluctance that was suppressed in my heart finally disappeared completely.

He twisted his buttocks, patted the ashes on his hands, and then patted his father's shoulder comfortingly, "Don't worry, I won't laugh at you!"

They are both fallen in the world, so they don't care about adults when they are young.

Mu Yao: ...

What is the bastard thinking about?
Although the two still have knots in their hearts, after the same adversity, they are indeed much closer than they were before.

For two days in a row, both father and son practiced calligraphy bitterly.

The Mu family is peaceful, but the county town is different.

In the tense preparations, refugees are still welcome.

It was late at night, and there were only a few patrolling people chatting casually.

"What's the matter with the refugees every day, I haven't seen a shadow for so long, is it fake?"

"This kind of thing, it's better to believe it or not. If they don't come, we will be busy for a few days. If they come but are not prepared, everyone will be unlucky."

"It's not such an exaggeration, it's just a bunch of rabble!"

"Don't underestimate the enemy. The people on the frontier have dealt with the barbarians all year round. They are extremely brave and brave, comparable to enlisted soldiers."

"Blow it you guys, I won't tell you, I'll take a nap for a while, anyway, it's impossible for anyone to come over."

When the voice fell to the ground, the man had already whispered.

Seeing this, the remaining people immediately divided into two factions.

The people who were put in bad shape lay directly on the ground and fell asleep.

Those who think that there is nothing wrong with it can't wait to curse people directly.

Suddenly, with a whoosh, a stone fell over.

"Wake up, the refugees are coming!"

"A refugee is here? Really? Where is it?"

"Are you blind? Didn't see the bright torch ahead!"

The county magistrate of Pingyang was well prepared, not only training five hundred young men, but also displaying sharp weapons such as catapults and tung oil.

In the beginning, the unsuspecting refugees did suffer a lot.

Later, they concentrated their all-out attack on one place and successfully entered Pingyang County.

Three hours later, everything was settled.

The county magistrate of Pingyang hid under the table in disgrace, and only came out with a livid face until the refugees left.

"What are these mud legs doing? How can you let these thugs break in?"

Master's condition is not good.

Dust was all over the clothes, and the hair crown didn't know where it hit and was crooked.

"Xianzun, the top priority is to quickly find out what they did!"

Even dare to break into the county government office, what else can't be done?

"That's right," the county magistrate nodded repeatedly, "We haven't paid our taxes yet, so don't let them find us!"

However, what is disappointing is that the entire Pingyang suffered little damage, and even the five hundred young men recruited were only slightly injured.

Only the county government office, not only the warehouse was emptied, but even the key to the grain cellar disappeared without a trace.

"Master, are you sure this batch of taxes is hidden?"

"In the mountain nest, it is impossible for outsiders to find it. Adults can put their hearts in their stomachs."

"That's good!"

After being appeased by the master, the magistrate let out a long sigh of relief, and then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "It's really evil, there are so many big families in the county, why do these refugees only stare at the county government?"

His family members and private treasury had already been given away by someone.

But there are not only money in the warehouse, but also various important items such as account books, registers and files, which is more serious than losing your own money.

"The common people are ignorant and always feel that the government has the most money, and this group of refugees should be the same."

"Damn it, if something like this happened, I will definitely fail this year's assessment."

"Alas," the master sighed, "after what happened, don't even think about being idle for the second half of the year!"

The land needs to be re-measured, the roster must be re-entered, and there are all kinds of odds and ends. Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

"The county government is in trouble for donations, and those big households in the county must also bleed. This official will spread all the losses on them!"

"That's a good way, but what's the reason, my lord?"

"Do you still need a reason?" The county official looked cold, "The county government is in trouble, but they are fine. I suspect that they are colluding with the refugees. Is there a problem?"

"No problem, no problem at all!"

The master also gritted his teeth in hatred.

His house is very close to the county government, so it must have been ransacked as well.

Although most of the valuable things were sent to the countryside, the rest still made people feel very distressed.

After the refugees passed away, it was supposed to celebrate with gongs and drums, but because of the county magistrate's actions, the whole Pingyang was in turmoil, and the grass and trees were full of soldiers.

Hearing this, Mu Yao paused his wrist, and uttered a sentence unhurriedly, "If you don't do it, you won't die!"

How rampant they are now, how much they cry when they find out that the tax and food have disappeared.

"It's really strange," Su Dai couldn't understand, "How dare he offend so many locals at once as a county magistrate from outside?"

"It's been so smooth for too many years, and my brain has degenerated," Mu Yao couldn't help complaining, "Because he was born in Juren, the county magistrate has always been more measured, even if he wants to be filial, he won't be too much. Be kind to each other, now..."

He hasn't caught any money for nine years, and he finally found an opportunity. It is impossible for him to give up without taking a layer of skin from others.

However, will it really come true?
What about the magistrate?
A strong dragon can't overwhelm a local snake!

How could the wealth accumulated by generations of people be surrendered because of an unwarranted crime?

 I have something to do tomorrow, it may be too late to update, don't wait~
