Chapter 71 The Great Oolong

"Grandma, why don't we go to the county and find my father first?"

With his father around, he felt at ease.

He has learned a lot from his father over the years, but he has never met the magistrate of Yang County, only heard about him from his father.

It is said that he is a good official, but who knows what it is?
After all, these two unreasonable yamen servants are under Zhao County Magistrate!

"Does your father have any friendship with the magistrate?" Si Qing asked.

Si Jinbai hesitated: "No."

"It's useless to ask him to go without friendship. We can handle this matter ourselves." Si Qing replied.

But Si Jinbai is still worried, such a big matter, can my aunt handle it as a child?
The two bullock carts bumped and walked towards the city of Chaoyang County. Except for Si Qing, everyone else was in the same mood as the bullock carts, feeling uneasy all the way.

Dajia Village is really not that close to Yang County, and the people traveled for two hours in bullock carts before arriving at the county seat.

In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Si Qing asked Si Jinbai to hide Si Dashan's family and the yamen servants in a relatively secret place when he was half a mile away from the city gate.

Then everyone lined up at the gate of the city for half a quarter of an hour in an ox cart, and then entered the county after passing the inspection of the guards.

As soon as he entered the county, Si Qing immediately felt a different lively atmosphere.

Small stalls can be seen everywhere on the street, food and entertainment abound, and various scents waft in the air from time to time.

Pedestrians come and go on the street, there are poor people who are dressed in patches like the people in the village, and there are rich people who wear silk and satin.

"Auntie, we have to walk a short distance to the county government. Bullock carts are not allowed in the city." Si Jinbai explained to Si Qing in a low voice.

"Then let's go." Si Qing jumped out of the car, and everyone else followed suit.

The bullock cart was pulled by another young man who was driving to find a place to stop.

Chen's daughter-in-law supported the injured Chen Shitou to go to the hospital for treatment first, and the rest went to the county government office together.

Before the Chen family's daughter-in-law Li Shi left, Si Jinbai deliberately avoided Si Qing and whispered to her, asking her to go to the blacksmith shop in the west of the city to find his father, Si Zhengping.

Li nodded in agreement.

Yang County is a small county, and the county government is located in the very center of the county, and it takes about a quarter of an hour to walk there.

Si Qing looked at the grievance drum at the gate of the yamen, raised his leg and walked straight over. He was about to reach for the drumstick, but was blocked by a hand.

"Little girl, if you want to play the drum, go home and play. This is the county government's grievance drum, and you can't just beat it casually." A fair young man in a government uniform stopped her with a smile.

"How do you know I'm here to play the drums? Could it be that you have to be old to play the grievance drums?" Si Qing didn't give him a good look. He had a small face and looked very serious.

Xing Wu was stopped by Si Qing's question.

For a long time I didn't know how to answer it.

Fortunately, the villagers saw that something was wrong and ran over quickly.

When Si Shanhe saw Xing Wu, he immediately recognized him, and was about to say hello to him, but when he thought that they had just tied up two yamen servants, he felt a little guilty, so he didn't dare to speak out.

Xing Wu obviously didn't recognize him and Wu either.

"Grandma, it's too tiring to beat the grievance drum, you rest first, I'll do it." Si Jinbai smiled and went up to block Si Qing behind him, looking at Xing Wu.

"Grandma, are you okay?" Others in the village looked Si Qing up and down nervously to confirm that she was okay, and then they were relieved.

Then he turned his head and glared at Xing Wu.

The current officials are really bad. At such a young age, they want to bully one or two of them!

"Grandma?" Xing Wu was a little dumbfounded when he saw that such an elderly group of people called a little girl Grandma.
