Chapter 167
It can be said that Yao Zhixian's visit to Lushan Village in person was a big news, and it didn't take long for it to spread throughout Lushan Village.

The villagers in Lushan Village all looked proud, and they would have something to brag about in the future.

Zhang Chengwang naturally also heard the news, it was his younger brother Zhang Wanli who came back and told him.

Zhang Wanli didn't know that Yaozhi County came because of the Nuomi Road, so he said to his brother, "Yaozhi County must have come here to encourage you talents because the township examination will be held in a few months. Wait a while, he will definitely come Our home."

Zhang Wanli was not convinced that Yaozhi County went to Yuan's house first.In his eyes, Yuan Suijun has been delayed for so many years because of his health, and his talents and learning are long gone.This year's Guangning County Township Examination still depends on his brother. Last year, his brother was just hanging on the tail because of bad luck.

Of course, Zhang Chengwang had met Yao magistrate before, but there was no occasion for such a private meeting.Even he was a little overwhelmed.

He said to Zhang Wanli: "Our whole family should put on clean and tidy clothes, don't lose our family's face."

Needless to say, Zhang Wanli knew about it.

Su Yuewei was also very excited, that was the county magistrate, their parents and officials from Guangning County were going to come to their house today.

If she wasn't married to Cheng Wang, how could she have the chance to talk to the county magistrate?

If she behaved well in front of the county magistrate and won a few compliments from him, her reputation would definitely be reversed.

With a gentle smile, Su Yuewei said to her husband: "When the lord comes to our house, I will discuss the Four Books and the Five Classics with you, my husband. I will go and exchange some meat and vegetables with the neighbor next door. Maybe I can keep the lord to stay and taste it." Try my specialty."

Zhang Chengwang thought it was a good idea. Although County Magistrate Yao went to Yuan Suijun's side first, if he stayed with him for a longer time, in the eyes of outsiders, he would naturally feel that he valued him more.The county magistrate of Yao has always been respectful and corporal, and he attaches great importance to scholars like them. If he asks him to keep him for dinner, he should give him face.

He nodded and said, "It's ready to make chestnut chicken and eggplant with minced meat."

Su Yuewei happily agreed, and the chickens are raised in the yard, just kill one.But chestnuts and eggplants are not available at home.

There were only two dishes, so I simply bought a duck from my neighbor and killed it directly to make the sauced duck.

The current Su Yuewei is not the same as before, she can't wait to break a penny into two pennies.For her husband's one hundred taels of silver, she bought the fertile land with ninety taels, and she still held ten taels in her hand.Now she has figured it out, she won't be able to have her own son within ten years, and Cheng Wang is hypocritical to her, working hard to save money for him, and she still doesn't know who will be the cheapest in the end.It's better to spend it when it's time to spend it, and you can make a good name for yourself.For example, the day before yesterday she gave Zhang Xinghua a hundred cash to buy silk flowers to wear.

Su Yuewei went to buy ducks from her neighbors with the copper coins, and it was too late to go to the city to buy them now.

The neighbor was surprised, "Why does your family suddenly want to eat duck?"

Su Yuewei showed a slightly ostentatious smile, "When the county magistrate comes over, I can just ask him to taste my special sauce duck. It's okay for us to deal with two casual meals at home, but we can't deal with the county magistrate with what we usually eat. My lord, such words are too rude."

"The county magistrate is going to your house? Sure enough, if you pass the exam, you will have a good reputation. You will have the opportunity to talk to the county magistrate, and even treat you to dinner."

Although the neighbors don't like Su Yuewei's behavior, and they don't want to have too much contact with her.But when people come to buy ducks with money, of course she accepts them with a smile.

"Come on, let me personally pick the best duck for you. My ducks eat earthworms and vegetable leaves, and the meat is very firm. I didn't expect that the duck I raised would be eaten by the county magistrate one day. I can brag to the outside world."

Su Yuewei still had a faint smile on her face, she just felt that the neighbors were just so promising.

She chose the biggest duck and slaughtered it for Su Yuewei.

Su Yuewei didn't want the duck's blood, so she kept it for her, and gave her the copper coins, and then went home with the duck.

The neighbor quickly publicized that the county magistrate was going to Zhang's house.

Not to mention the envy of the villagers, but their family has no talents, otherwise they would be able to stand out like the Yuan family and Zhang family.

Su Yuewei cleaned up the ducks and the chickens she slaughtered by herself in the kitchen, and asked Zhang Xinghua to help remove the hair.Normally, Zhang Xinghua would definitely not do it, but this food was made for the magistrate of the county, and she also expected to get more money from Su Yuewei, so she obediently helped with the work.

On the other side, Zhang Wanli was doing the cleaning, and even ran to clean the tea set.

Zhang Chengwang has never done these housework. He chose to just think about what questions he needs to ask the county magistrate to get closer to him after meeting the county magistrate.

Asking questions is also a culture. If it is too simple, it is easy for the county magistrate to look down on him and feel that he is a fake.But if it's too difficult, what if the county magistrate can't answer and can't step down?

He racked his brains until he picked two.

Zhang Chengwang also opened the window of the room, looking towards Yuan's house from time to time, waiting for the county magistrate to come out.

Waiting and waiting, after waiting for about half an hour, he heard movement over there.

coming!

Zhang Chengwang looked forward to it.Not long after, he saw the figure of the county magistrate and a few police officers behind him.

Wait, the village chief is here too.

He frowned slightly, the village chief wouldn't deliberately stop him, right?He has always admired Yuan Suijun more, maybe it might really trip him up.

Zhang Chengwang's face turned cold, he felt that he could not sit still, he had to take the initiative to attack.

He quickly walked out of Zhang's house and waited at the door - when the county magistrate was about to leave, he would definitely pass by the door of Zhang's house.

He had just arrived at the door when the county magistrate and the others had already walked over.

Zhang Chengwang said with a gentle smile, "Students greet you."

Yao Zhixian was only thinking about going back to write the notebook, he took a look and recognized Zhang Xiucai, he nodded, "There is no need to be polite."

He lifted his foot and walked forward.

Zhang Chengwang was stunned, and quickly called to him, "My lord, won't you come to our house for a drink of tea?"

What tea do you drink? Writing notes is the most important thing.

Yao Zhixian shook his head, "I remembered that there are still some official documents that have not been processed, so I will go back first."

He directly led his master and a few policemen to leave without giving Zhang Chengwang a chance to keep him.

Zhang Chengwang stared blankly at his receding back.He had time to stay at Yuan's house for half an hour, but it was a waste of time to even talk to him, and he didn't want to give him a sip of tea before leaving.

Does he look down on him that much?
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but he just feels like a glow is on his back, and everyone is watching his jokes.The one who took care of him just now for the sake of Master Yao is simply the number one idiot.

Zhang Chengwang's face was hot. He was pale, not in the mood to greet the village chief and the others, and went straight into the house.

The village head only thought that Zhang Chengwang was really watching people order food. Once Yao Zhixian left, he didn't even do superficial skills.Won Soo is better.

After returning home, he heard his wife Lu Li asked him if the county magistrate had gone to Zhang's house for dinner, so he looked puzzled, "Why did the county magistrate go to Zhang's house for dinner?"

Lu Lishi said: "What Su Yuewei said, she even bought a duck from her neighbors to entertain the village chief."

Only then did Lu Li come to his senses, and couldn't help laughing.

Dare Zhang Chengwang think that Yaozhi County came to Lushan Village for him?This is too self-indulgent.

He laughed and burst into tears, and said, "Thinking too much, the county magistrate is here for Nuomi Road."
