Chapter 92
With the help of An Xiaoxiao and the villagers, the county magistrate could only quickly hold a second simple election meeting for the village head. The only elector was Uncle An. In the register, it was publicly announced that Uncle An would take over as the head of Anjia Village.

The new village head's notice needs to be pasted at the village entrance for three days, and Uncle An can officially take over the job of the village head only after no one raises any objections.

During these three days, the villagers spontaneously sent congratulatory gifts to Uncle An's house. Those with better conditions slaughtered live chickens and ducks and sent them over. The glutinous rice cakes were placed at the door of his house.

"Take them all back, I don't want these things." Second Uncle An was really annoyed by rejecting wave after wave of villagers these days, so he could only just pull his face down and send people away in a confused and frightened manner.Some villagers listened to the persuasion, and when they saw that they would not accept it, they obediently collected the good things and left. Some villagers bit their heads and fought with Uncle An, swearing that they would die at his house if the other party did not accept it.

"Second Uncle An, please accept it, we have no other intentions, we really just want to congratulate you."

When An Xiaoxiao brought the two catties of pork that Dawu bought from the county to Uncle An's house, he saw from a distance that Da Niu kept stuffing things into Uncle An's hands at the gate of the farmhouse.I saw him look left and right, and after confirming that there was no one around, he sighed and said, "It's not that I didn't want to vote for you that day, it's really ah, it's my fault. I know you blame us, but you take the things anyway. It's all on our minds."

Having said that, there is no point in arguing about anything. The thing wrapped in red paper was firmly held in his hand. Second Uncle An was stunned for a moment, then took the thing in silence.

"Go back." Second Uncle An, who had been planting the land for most of his life, didn't know how to respond. He loosened and clenched his clenched palms, and finally reached out to pat each other's shoulders, and said, "Thank you."

The other party smiled happily and walked back happily.An Xiaoxiao hid in the dark, and after confirming that the person was far away, she walked out slowly with the pork, "Second Uncle An, congratulations!"

Second Uncle An was still standing there in a daze. When he saw her coming, he opened his eyes and entered the room. An Xiaoxiao happily followed.

"Look at you, you have caused me such trouble!" Second Uncle An sat on the bench, looked at the gifts piled up all over the floor, and slapped the table angrily. An Xiaoxiao grabbed Second Aunt An who was pouring tea for her. She said coquettishly, "You can't blame me."

Second Aunt An patted her on the head and cast a reproachful glance at Second Uncle An. The man rolled his eyes so angry that he wished he could pick up An Xiaoxiao and throw him out the door.

Except for medical visits, An Xiaoxiao seldom came to Uncle An's farmhouse. This time, it was rare that she had some free time. Aunt An cooked the food herself. The three of them had four dishes, and they drank slowly with a jug of wine.

"Second Uncle An, what's your plan next?" An Xiaoxiao poured Aunt An a cup of tea, raised her glass to touch Uncle An, and drank with her head straight up.

The rice wine brewed by farmers is of high purity and strong alcohol.After taking a sip, her throat was hot, and her whole body was filled with heat, within two strokes, An Xiaoxiao's cheeks turned red.

"Drink slowly, my daughter's family." Uncle An frowned, knocked off An Xiaoxiao's hands and continued to touch the jug, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry now, the magistrate will be there in two days. Bring someone to liquidate, and after the liquidation is completed, I will discuss the follow-up matters with the county magistrate."

After Village Chief An and Cui Cui were arrested, except for his family's land and property to be redistributed in the village, all the gold, silver and jewelry hidden in his home had to be liquidated and confiscated. My lord specially wrote a letter to ask for instructions, and left part of his assets as a subsidy to subsidize Anjia Village.

"The county magistrate is a good official." Thinking of this, Village Chief An praised him sincerely.An Xiaoxiao agreed with this, after all, not any local official could stand such a toss.

"Why don't Da Wu and Xiao Jiang come over?" Second Aunt An picked up some food for An Xiaoxiao, as if remembering something, she suddenly smiled and said, "There is also Miss Rong from the day before yesterday, looking at her face, she is not from our Anjia Village, right? "

"She lives in Daoxiang Village now." An Xiaoxiao explained with a smile, "Jiang Chao sent her back to the village, and Da Wu followed her back to see Shuyue and the others. It's been a long time since I saw her, he almost wanted to die."

"Bring them over to play some other day, your second uncle is the one who misses them the most." Second Aunt An teasingly winked at Little Thief An, and Second Uncle An coughed uncomfortably, pretending to be serious Putting down the cup, he turned his head and said, "I didn't say that."

The three of them were talking and laughing. After eating for almost half an hour, An Xiaoxiao helped Second Aunt An clean the dishes, cleaned up the table, and rushed to the inn.

The weather is still a bit cold now, the young man leaves early, and the inn is unattended, so the door must be closed in time.When An Xiaoxiao hurried back to the inn, she saw a long figure squatting in the middle of the inn. She took a deep breath and slowed down, "Jiang Chao, you didn't say anything when you came back, and you made me run away." In such a hurry."

"The small road I took, I came back earlier than in the past." Jiang Chao smiled, and then explained: "Da Wu said that he would stay in Daoxiang Village for a few more days, so I asked me to come back and tell you."

An Xiao gave a small oh, as expected.The two little ones haven't seen Da Wu for a long time, and they probably pester him to keep him from coming back. They're fine recently, so it doesn't matter if they stay for a few more days.

The two were silent, and Jiang Chao ignored her. After drinking a few glasses of wine with his head down, he raised his eyes and saw An Xiaoxiao still standing there. rest?"

"Jiang Chao, do you know the verdict issued by the two village chiefs yesterday?" An Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows.

"I don't know." Jiang Chao shook his head and poured himself another glass of wine, "I don't care about it."

"Cui Cui was sentenced to five years in exile. Village Chief An was supposed to be beheaded, but he was sentenced to ten years in exile." An Xiaoxiao said lightly, "An Qilin was adopted by the gentry in the town."

Jiang Chao nodded, expressing his understanding. He pondered for a moment and said, "It should be the squire who made a deal of it and saved the life of Village Chief An."

The power of the county magistrate is not big, but not small.Let's talk big, you have to file a letter to liquidate your property, talk small, even a death row prisoner dares to be exiled.

An Xiaoxiao shrugged and didn't express any opinion on this.

"Miss An, go to bed early." Jiang Chao drank the last glass of wine, cleaned up the table, got up and walked to the backyard. An Xiaoxiao looked at him silently.

When he was about to brush against him, An Xiaoxiao suddenly reached out and threw something at Jiang Chao, "Take the thing well, I may not be the one who picked it up next time."

Jiang Chao reached out to catch it, and opened his palm to see that it was the sentry sent to him by An Xiaoxiao when Rongniang came to Anjia Village for the first time.

"I found it in Lai Hunzi's house." An Xiaoxiao smiled. She stared at Jiang Chao's face and raised the corners of her mouth, "After the death of the little wife, you went to Lai Hunzi's house alone. before me."
