Chapter 33
The next day, Lingbao got up and asked, "Big brother, can we go to the county today?"

Cheng Yun brushed her hair gently, without feeling any pain, and said softly, "No way, the village head's ox cart hasn't come back yet."

"Okay." Ling Bao shook his drooping calf, "Big Brother, can you drive an ox cart?"

Cheng Yun paused, and realized that he had overlooked a big problem: he doesn't know how to drive an ox cart!
In the past, there was a horse-drawn carriage for travel, and he didn't need to drive the horse-drawn carriage. Subconsciously, he ignored the fact that the ox cart still needed to be driven.

It seems that I still have to ask the village chief.

The village chief's brother-in-law returned the ox cart on the third day, and when he learned that Cheng Yun and the others wanted him to help drive the cart, he agreed without saying a word.

"There is no need for remuneration. They are all from the same village. What kind of remuneration is there?" The village head said disapprovingly, "As the village head, I have to take care of the villagers' affairs."

Cheng Yun was embarrassed to ask the village head to do the work for nothing, and the village head said: "I really want to thank me, so please be nice to Ling Bao, this child is a hard-fated boy."

Cheng Yun nodded seriously, and said with a smile: "She is my younger sister, of course I will treat her well."

The village chief said with a smile, "Meeting you is also her blessing."

Before going, Lingbao made a special trip to Aunt Osmanthus's house.

"Sister Guoguo, we are going to the county seat tomorrow, and my father is going to shave. When we come back, you will know that my father is the most beautiful person!"

On this day, Cheng Zhongqian and the others got up early and went to the county town together with the village chief.

The dug turmeric was placed on the bull cart, and Cheng Zhongqian sat beside him, very uncomfortable, and his brows did not loosen during the whole process.

The cart is too hard, the bullock cart is too shaking, and the turmeric has a smell.

Cheng Yun could only say: "Father, bear with it."

Cheng Zhongqian didn't speak, his eyebrows were lowered.

He thought this was the limit, but he didn't expect that the wheels got stuck in the mud halfway.

The village groaned: "No, the cow can't be pulled, we have to push it. Dalang's father, come down and help."

Cheng Zhongqian pointed back at himself and asked in disbelief, "Me?"

The village head said yes, looking at him with strange eyes, who else could it be?

Cheng Yun coughed lightly: "Village Chief, no need, Erlang and I can just push."

The village chief is quite familiar with them, and knowing that they are not as vicious as he imagined, he frowned: "Well, he is my father, how can he be so lazy, can that family still want it!"

"Quick, Da Lang's father, hurry up and push."

Cheng Zhongqian's lips trembled, as if he was too angry to speak.

Cheng Yun hurriedly followed his father's middle path twice, and said with a smile: "Village chief, it's really unnecessary, my father is not well, Erlang and I can do it."

"Nonsense, when did your father get sick, eat and drink well during this time, get well soon."

That is to say, they were pampered and raised in the past. As long as they are not dead, they can continue to work.

"Dalang's father, hurry up, the children are here, you can't act badly, be careful that they follow your example."

Cheng Zhongqian slapped Cheng Yun's hand away, jumped off the bullock cart, took a deep breath, and said through gritted teeth: "I push, can I push!"

"That's right." The village head said cheerfully.

Lingbao also jumped down from the bullock cart, she was not tall enough to get a seat behind, so she could only hold down the side of the bullock cart, exerting all her strength: "Mmm——ah!"

Everyone worked together and finally pushed the bullock cart.

However, Cheng Zhongqian exerted too much strength and suddenly lost his support. After staggering a bit, he knelt in the mud with his hands propped up.

Cheng Zhongqian closed his eyes and felt the mud splash on his face: "."

The calf and hands were covered with mud, and the rest of the place was muddy, dirty and smelled earthy.

Cheng Zhongqian's eyes darkened, his face was dull, and he wondered why he got down to push the cart.

"Father, are you alright?" Cheng Yun didn't dare to speak anymore, "Are you injured?"

Cheng Yi grabbed Ling Bao who was rushing forward, let the eldest brother handle it at this time.

He looked at the sky and the earth at the little idiot, but he didn't look at his father.

Ling Bao asked worriedly: "Is Daddy injured?"

The village chief showed him a look, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, it's nothing, it's just a fall."

Cheng Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

But Cheng Zhongqian's complexion didn't improve at all, he lost all face!
"Come on, keep going."

Cheng Zhongqian stared: "How can I hurry like this?"

The village head said: "It will dry in a while, and after it is dry, it will fall off after one tap."

"No, I need to change clothes." Cheng Zhongqian couldn't bear it, he felt his body was completely dirty.

Pointing to the way we came from, the village chief said, "It will take an hour to go back. Don't we come out in vain? Father Dalang, bear with it. We country people love cleanliness so much."

How can you bear this? !

Cheng Zhongqian clenched his fists, feeling a bit broken.

Under the friendly persuasion of the village head, Cheng Zhongqian got back into the bullock cart with a black face.

Originally, Lingbao and Dawang were sitting next to him, but Cheng Yun hesitated for a while, and changed Lingbao's position.

Cheng Zhongqian saw it in his eyes and was annoyed in his heart.

Cheng Yun looked away guiltily, washing one piece of clothes is better than washing two pieces of clothes, right?
Lingbao sat in the front corner, pulling the sack, tiptoeing to ask Cheng Zhongqian at the rear of the car: "Daddy, are you not injured? Is there any pain?"

Cheng Yi patted his forehead, little idiot, why are you joining in the fun at this time!

Cheng Zhongqian didn't turn his head, and no one paid attention to him, let him be quiet for a while.

"Daddy."

Cheng Yun shook his head at her, Ling Bao shut up obediently, and asked in a low voice: "Big brother, why doesn't daddy talk? Is it too painful?"

Cheng Yun rubbed her head: "No, Dad is sleepy, let's let him take a nap."

"Okay." Lingbao said in a low voice.

After another hour, I finally arrived at the county seat.

Looking at the mediocre Feng'an County in front of him, Cheng Zhongqian was obviously disappointed. Unlike the streets in the capital, which extend in all directions, there are only two main streets here.

When entering the city gate, the guard took another look at Cheng Zhongqian, and Cheng Zhongqian stared back bitterly, wondering what to look at.

Driving the ox cart to Miao Ren Tang, Cheng Yi was a little bit tangled.

"Brother, do we really want to go in? If this is not medicinal material, we will be kicked out." That would be too embarrassing.

"It's all coming."

Cheng Yun straightened his robes and stepped into the hall.

Lingbao and the other three also went in.

Everything was fine before, but when it was Cheng Zhongqian's turn, a little accident happened.

"Wait, you." The apprentice frowned, looked up and down, and stopped talking halfway, "Forget it, come in."

Cheng Zhongqian was slightly startled, realizing what he meant, his face immediately sank.

After all, he has been an official for many years, more than his superiors, more than his inferiors, and he is very majestic. The apprentice has an inexplicable illusion of being scrutinized.

Cheng Zhongqian sneered: "What about me? Say the whole thing if you want to say it, and hide half of it, it seems you are stingy."

Apprentice: "How do you talk? I didn't say anything."

"Your 'didn't say anything' is much stronger than 'said something'." Cheng Zhongqian sneered and walked away, "I won't go in, my clothes are filthy, I'm afraid I'll dirty your place!"
