Chapter 138
After Si Jinbai left, Si Qing started chatting with the old man, mainly asking him how much he could earn a month selling wontons.

The old man answered less than five taels of silver.

Si Qing couldn't help but click her tongue when she heard this. It wasn't enough to buy a cow. She thought that such a small stall could earn dozens of taels a month, but it turned out that she was thinking too much.

But it's true, five taels of silver is quite a lot for ordinary people, like the people of Dajia Village, who spend less than ten taels of silver all year round.

For ordinary people, about five taels of silver a month is considered a big income.

Si Qing chatted with the old man for a while, and a few customers came to the wonton stand, and the old man became busy, until Si Jinbai came over, the old man didn't relax.

Si Jinbai paid ten cents for wontons and left with Si Qing.

"Grandma, shall we go to the blacksmith shop or Dongshi first?"

"Go to the county government office."

Si Qing put his hands behind his back, and said old-fashionedly.

"Ah? Why are you going to the county government office?" Si Jinbai was a little confused.

Si Qing turned his face and glanced at Si Jinbai: "Where are there so many problems? You can just follow me. Why are you so talkative like your father at such a young age?"

Si Jinbai patted his head, a little embarrassed, he thought he was not long-winded.

One big and one small went to the county government office.

Xing Wu is still standing guard at the door today.

Watching a child walking this way from a distance, he didn't take it seriously.

It wasn't until I got closer that I realized, hey, it's that little aunt from last time again!

Si Qing swaggered to the gate of the yamen with his little hands behind his back, looked up and met Xing Wu's eyes.

"Hey, little girl, why are you here at the county government again? Who do you want to sue again today?" Xing Wu couldn't help joking with Si Qing when he saw Si Qing.

Si Qing rolled his eyes at him, and said seriously with a soft and cute little face: "Go and talk to your county magistrate, and tell him that I have something very important to see him."

Seeing her serious appearance, Xing Wu couldn't help laughing and said, "If you have something important, let's hear it."

"It's important to say it all. How can it be said casually? You can just say whether you want to go or not. If you don't go, I will beat the drum of injustice."

Si Qing was impatient to chat with him and looked at him angrily.

"Little girl, you have a big temper."

Xing Wu muttered: "You wait first, I'll go later and talk to the county magistrate for you, but it's not certain whether he will see you or not."

After all, that is the county magistrate, so whoever wants to see him can see it?
Si Qing pursed his lips, and added: "You told your county magistrate that if you want political achievements, you must meet me."

Xing Wu waved his hand: "Got it."

As soon as Xing Wu left, Si Jinbai quickly approached Si Qing and asked, "Auntie, can the county magistrate see you?"

Why does he feel a little overwhelmed?
Having said that, didn't my aunt come to buy cattle and plow tools?Why do you need to find the county magistrate? Is it possible that the county magistrate still sells cattle?

Si Jinbai was at a loss.

Secretary Si nodded affirmatively: "He will definitely meet me."

The backyard of the county government.

County magistrate Zhao was having dinner with his old mother and wife when he heard that Xing Wu was waiting in the study.

"Mother, you and Wanhua eat first, and I'll go to the study." Magistrate Zhao put down the bowl and chopsticks, and looked at the old mother.

The old mother nodded: "Go."

Xing Wuhou was outside the study, when he saw County Magistrate Zhao approaching, he quickly stepped forward and whispered: "My lord, it's the little girl from before. She wants to see you and says it has something to do with your political achievements."

Zhao County Magistrate raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "Political achievements? That little girl really said that?"

Xing Wu nodded.

A flash of thought flashed in the eyes of County Magistrate Zhao. After Si Qing left last time, he sent someone down to check on Si Qing's situation, but nothing unusual was found. A family is not a person of high status.
