When Li Si returned to the yamen, Zhou Bi stayed in the yamen to take care of the affairs when he arrived at the next yamen.

Li Si handed the medicine to him and said, "Miss Li has just made this medicine. I specially asked me to bring it to you. It is said to nourish your body, so you don't need to drink it."

Zhou Bi looked at the large bag of medicines on the case, and his anger went straight to his forehead, "Is she not sick? For her sake, I asked you to send a message to her. She is fine and asked you to bring me the medicine. She is an annoyance." The trouble is not big enough, and I won't be mad at me. So I took medicine to reduce my fire, and I thank her."

Seeing him losing his temper, Li Si hurriedly said good things to Li Yan, "My lord, you have wronged Ms. Li. Why is Ms. Li trying to get angry with you? She knows your hard work, sir, and she is afraid that you will ruin your health. You bring the medicine. Not only the adults, dozens of subordinates got the medicine from Miss Li."

When Zhou Bi heard that the yamen servants also had medicine, he felt uncomfortable again.

He is not alone.

Judging from Li Yan's attitude towards him, it is estimated that he is the one who goes by the way.

Li Si suddenly felt that the adult looked at him a little strangely, he didn't offend him.

At this time, Wang Fugui came in sweating profusely.

He has an unshirkable responsibility for the trouble caused by moldy rice.

If he had been able to inspect the food carefully when it was entering the treasury, the matter would not have ended in front of the common people.

It also caused my brother-in-law to offend the imperial envoy in front of others.

Wang Fugui's heart sank.

"How are things going?"

There was a shortage of rice and grain in the treasury, and Zhou Bi asked him to make atonement for his sins and go to adjust the grain.

Wang Fugui had a bitter face and said angrily, "Brother-in-law, those wretched and bastards, don't give money or borrow food."

"At first, the shopkeepers of several grain shops I approached made excuses to perfuse me, saying that they had no grain on hand, and they would think of a way to see if they could buy grain from other places."

"The next few families probably heard the rumors, and they either made excuses that they were not there, or they just excused themselves to be sick and bedridden at home, trying to find all kinds of excuses to avoid me."

He knew that he was not doing his job well, and at the end his voice became lower and lower, and he didn't dare to look up at Zhou Bi's face.

Zhou Bi didn't have time to listen to his chatter, so he asked him with a calm face, "So, how much do you raise for the disaster relief food tomorrow?"

Wang Fugui lowered his head even lower, and said in a low voice, "Only half of the money is raised."

"Only half?"

After Zhou Bi heard this, he pressed his brows together, worried to death.

When these profiteers ask him for something, they don't look like this.

Wang Fugui slapped himself, "Brother-in-law, I'm all to blame for this, if it wasn't for me."

Zhou Bi interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "Since this is the case, what's the use of blaming you?"

"Besides, this is not your fault alone."

If you really want to make a mistake, it is also a big mistake for those who privately used disaster relief.

Li Si suggested, "My lord, why don't you go and look for Miss Li. When I came, I saw that she still had some food in store, so it should be able to relieve her urgent needs."

"It can only be this way."

Zhou Bi sighed helplessly, "You go to Li Yan's place again. Tell her that the money is owed first, and then I will pay her back with interest at the same time."

"promise."

Just as Li Si was about to leave, Zhou Bi remembered something again and hurriedly stopped him, "Wait a minute."

Then he said to Wang Fugui who was standing beside him, "Why are you standing there, go get your pen and ink."

When Wang Fugui did something wrong, he didn't dare to breathe, and he did what he was called.

In front of the two of them, Zhou Bi immediately wrote an IOU, stamped his fingerprints, and stamped his personal seal.

This wave of skillful operations left Li Si dumbfounded.

Zhou Bi didn't look at his stupid look, and handed him the IOU, "Hurry up and come back."

At this time, a voice as sweet as rain came to my ears, "You don't have to go, I'm here to deliver food."

Li Yan, who was dressed in a black Taoist robe, entered the Yamen as if entering a deserted land.

Zhou Bi looked at this magic trick with doubts in his eyes.

Xindao, is there such a good thing?

impossible.

Every time the little ancestor came to the yamen, he would not give up if he didn't do something.

This time, let's see what she wants.

In front of him, Li Yan took the IOU in Li Si's hand with a smile, "This is the IOU, the old rules, I will keep it for you."

He said obediently again, "The county magistrate is so reassuring in his work. I just like dealing with you."

Zhou Bi hehehe, I thought that if I didn't write you an IOU, you could easily hand over the food to me.

What kind of heart the little ancestor is, Zhou Bi has seen through it a long time ago.

If there is no profit, it is she who said it.

Li Yan blinked, "The food is at the gate of the government office, you can send someone into the warehouse."

After speaking, Zigu found a chair and sat down.

Since Li Yan said so, the food must have arrived at the gate of the yamen.

Zhou Bi arranged for Wang Fugui and Li Si to transport grain.

"Is there anything else?" Seeing her drinking tea, Zhou Bi had no intention of leaving, so he sat down beside her.

"Look at what your lord said, it's okay, my little girl can't come to the yamen, and have tea with you, my lord?"

Zhou Bi said, "Stop pretending, just talk about something."

Li Yan smiled and said, "Actually, I'm here for adults this time."

Zhou Bi raised his eyebrows, "How do you say that?"

Li Yan turned her eyes and said with a smile, "Did your lord offend Mr. Sun?"

"You instigated Qin Xiaochun to come to the government office to make trouble, right?" Zhou Bi asked without answering, looking at her sharply with bean eyes.

Li Yan smiled.

Zhou Bi's eyes were full of inquiry, "How did you know that the disaster food delivered by Mr. Sun is different?"

Li Yan opened her eyes and said nonsense, "I said I calculated it with my fingers, and I figured it out, my lord, do you believe it?"

Zhou Bi, "."

Believe me!
I really want to give her a big slap in the face.

He rolled his eyes and ignored her.

Li Yan blinked a pair of almond eyes, and continued to babble, "On the way they delivered food, I happened to meet. The road was bumpy, so I spilled some rice."

"Isn't the little girl bright-eyed and quick-handed? When she saw the color of the rice was different, she picked it up and had a look."

"Oh, I didn't expect it to fall out and it was all moldy. At that time, I kept it in mind."

Zhou Bi was so angry, he stretched out his hand and pointed, "You even noticed something was wrong, why didn't you call me in advance."

Li Yan looked at him with dark eyes, "I'll tell you, can you trust me?"

Besides, even if you find out, what can you do? "

"Can you still refuse the disaster relief food from the imperial court?"

"Then you can't keep silent and just mess around by yourself."

Zhou Bi was speechless, "At least you should talk to me first, so that I can have a countermeasure."

"I think you did it on purpose, you didn't want me to know about it." Zhou Bi said more and more angrily.

If she had told him earlier, there would be nothing he could do, and he wouldn't be forced to go to Liangshan like he is now, like a duck trying to get on the shelves.

Li Yan comforted him with a smile, "It's my daughter's fault. It's my daughter's lack of thoughtfulness. No, I've reflected on it, and I'll give you an idea."

Hearing that she had an idea, Zhou Bi suddenly became energetic, "What is the best plan? Tell me carefully."

"It all depends on the courage of the county magistrate?" Li Yan smiled like a fox.
