Chapter 178 List
At the entrance of Fulai Building, Zhou Laosan and Fat Miaoer waited anxiously.

After a stick of incense, Yang Shu rushed over with a sharp knife.

"Brother Yang, thank you for your hard work. Hurry up and invite me inside, private room on the second floor."

Zhou Laosan rushed up to greet him, grabbed Yang Shu's shoulders, and glanced back at Li Xiaodao.

Li Xiaodao didn't speak, but nodded to Zhou Laosan.

The four of them came to the private room on the second floor, Zhou Laosan ordered Xiao Er to serve the food, without mentioning anything about Master Cao, he picked up the jug and filled a glass for himself and Yang Shu.

Zhou Laosan stood up, picked up his wine glass and said, "Brother Yang, I am very grateful for what happened today. I will thank you on behalf of Xiaodao, and I will do it first as a respect."

When you're done, drink it up.

"They're all my brothers, why be so polite, you're too out of touch."

Yang Shu reprimanded, picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

Seeing this, Li Xiaodao quickly got up to serve the two, then raised his own wine glass and said, "Thank you Uncle Yang for your help. Regardless of whether today's matter is successful or not, Uncle Yang's kindness will always be in my heart."

"If you need a small knife in the future, Uncle Yang just asks, and the small knife will go through fire and water."

There is a touch of sincerity in the slightly green eyebrows and eyes. No matter what, people are willing to help, and this love must be remembered in the heart.

"What are you talking about? It's serious. It's just a matter of little effort."

Yang Shu raised his hand and patted Li Xiaodao on the shoulder twice, looked at him with joy and appreciation in his eyes, and sat down beside him.

"Heroic boy, Xiaodao is brave and resourceful, speaks and does things crisply, and does not stick to rules and regulations. It is very rare. Not bad, not bad!"

"Come, come, let's have another drink with Uncle Yang." Yang Shu said.

After drinking it all down, Li Xiaodao filled the wine glasses for both parties again, and said in a bright voice: "I want to respect Uncle San for this glass, thank you Uncle San for following our brothers and sisters busy."

Zhou Laosan is Fat Miao'er's father, but not Li Xiaodao's relatives. Li Xiaodao himself also understands that this time Zhou Laosan can help him make connections and find ways, it is entirely for Fat Miao'er's sake .

But even so, he is still grateful. After all, there is a saying that is good, helping is a kindness, not helping is a duty, and one must know how to be grateful.

"Don't say thank you. You are Fat Miao'er's big brother and our own nephew. As an elder, I wish you well."

Zhou Laosan reached out and touched Fat Miao'er's head, then put it down and picked up the wine glass.

"Come, come, Xiaodao, let's respect Brother Yang together."

"I also want to respect Uncle Yang."

Fat Miao'er followed along to join in the fun, holding an empty wine glass to Zhou Laosan, her big watery eyes beckoning her father to fill it up.

"That can't be done!"

Zhou Laosan's face was serious, and he smiled lightly: "You are too young to drink, and you are a girl, and drinking is not suitable."

"Who says girls can't drink?"

Fat Miao'er retorted in a low voice, rolled her eyes, picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup, and said loudly, "I will serve Uncle Yang with tea instead of wine."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Yang Shu laughed loudly, said three good words in a row, and teasingly clinked glasses with Fat Miao'er.

During the banquet, the cups were exchanged, Yang Shu and Zhou Laosan came and went, the more they chatted, the more speculative they were, and the guests and the host enjoyed a meal.

After dinner.

Yang Shu drank a little too much, his feet were flimsy, and he staggered when he walked.

Seeing this, Zhou Laosan and Li Xiaodao supported him from left to right, while Fat Miao'er followed behind him, and the three of them sent Yang Shu home all the way.

At the door of Yang's house.

Yang Shu raised his hand to wipe his face, and shook his head vigorously.

"Enjoy yourself without drinking, but you will be on duty tomorrow, so it's really not appropriate to drink too much."

"Another day, another day I'll be the host, and we two brothers will drink until dawn."

There is nothing wrong with Zhou Laosan.

"Okay, let's get drunk with Brother Yang in a few days."

Poplar nodded.

"By the way, third child, it's rare to come to the county. It's getting late, so stay at home and don't go back, so you don't have to go back and forth."

In two days, the yamen's recruitment list will come down, and Zhou Laosan and Li Xiaodao will definitely come to the county to see their results.

After listening, Zhou Laosan shook his head.

"Brother Yang's kindness is appreciated. I still have something to do at home, so I won't bother you."

Zhou Laosan looked up at the sky. The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky red, and the sun was about to set. If he drove faster, he could save some night walking.

"Brother Yang, let's meet again some other day."

Zhou Laosan arched his hands, and the three said goodbye to Yang Shu respectively.

After all, Zhou Laosan urged Li Xiaodao again: "Xiaodao, let's go back quickly."

It's hard to walk when it's dark.

……

Two days later.

The list of recruiting yamen servants in the county was announced, and it was pasted outside the county yamen gate, with five names neatly written on red paper and black ink.

All the personnel participating in the assessment stood there, looking forward to it, and stopped to watch.

"There is me, there is me, I am on the list, I can enter the yamen, and I am a yamen servant."

"Missed, without me, I was brushed down."

"Not me, hey! I failed again. I don't know when the next time the county will recruit yamen servants."

Some were cheering, some were downcast.

Some even shouted at the results of injustice.

"How can there be Zhao Wensong? This person is in the same group as me, and his performance in the assessment is obviously not as good as mine. Why should he be a yamen servant? It's not fair! It's not fair!"

"Hush! Brother, please keep your voice down. This is the gate of the yamen. If you make trouble here, you are not afraid of being arrested and beaten."

"Why hit me? Anyone with a discerning eye knows that he is inferior to me. I don't accept it! I don't accept it!"

The man in front of the notice was saliva flying, emotional, his eyes were scarlet, the veins on his forehead grew violently, and his face was full of resentment.

The surrounding people listened to it and began to whisper softly.

It didn't take long for the movement here to attract the attention of the county government officials.

They came over and reprimanded loudly: "This is the gate of the county government office. You must not make trouble here, otherwise you will be punished as obstructing public affairs."

With this voice, the surrounding crowd died down, and everyone lowered their heads like quails.

Only the man who had just shouted at injustice pursed his lips, clenched his fists, stepped forward and said, "Brother, this list does not match the results of that day's assessment. Is there something wrong?"

"Go! Go! Go!"

The officer waved his hands impatiently, and chased people away like a fly.

"All the assessment results are based on the overall quality and are admitted by the Master Registrar. How can you make a mistake?"

"Stop making trouble for no reason here, or you will suffer!"

The official gave the man a warning look.

The man refused to accept, but in the face of the official's strong attitude, he could only keep silent and bow his head.

Who told him that he was just a commoner, with no money and power, and he could only consider himself unlucky when he met a related family.

The man shook his head and left in a depressed mood, just in time to run into Li Xiaodao and others who came to see the results.

Li Xiaodao glanced at it, but he didn't have much sympathy.

This society is like this, you can use certain methods without others, so why bother yourself and be a saint in vain.
