Chapter 78
Mrs. Zhou saw him like that, and slapped his ear hard, "You still want me to rub it, you deserve it to death, and see if you will still drink too much in the future?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." Such a thing would kill him once, how dare he do it again.

Zhou Bi kept his head down and acted small, distracting his wife's mind.

Xiaodou rolled her eyes, covered her ears, and said bluntly, "Madam, you can accompany me to the Yaoxiang Hall tomorrow. Just treat me as a poor husband."

"Hmph, who wants to pity you, you clean up your own mess." Mrs. Zhou turned her head and ignored him.

Zhou Bi stretched out his hand and took him into his arms, "Madam, just help me."

The nephrite jade was warm and fragrant in her arms, and her hands began to feel restless.

"Speak well, what are you doing?" Mrs. Zhou patted his hand.

With the beautiful scenery unfolding in front of him, he couldn't bear it.

The husband and wife have not been tender for several months, he thought about it.

Zhou Bi couldn't help panting, begging, "Madam, please."

The one who killed a thousand swords, took advantage of the drunkenness and started drinking madness, see if I can't cure you.

Mrs. Zhou pushed him, pressed him on the couch, and blocked his chattering mouth.

. . . . .

Speaking of Li Yan, she went back to the Yaoxiangtang, went straight into the pharmacy to make medicine, and after the little girl fell asleep, she went to the warehouse secretly.

Ten boxes of gold ingots and six boxes of jewelry were going to be buried nearby at night. The private treasury was next to the yard. Li Yan, a young girl, could not move such a heavy box far away, so she decided to bury it in the yard. Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

A bright moon hung high in the sky, and a little girl in the world took advantage of the moonlight to move the box under the tree. It took most of the night and finally dug a big hole. Except for the three boxes of jewellery, the other ten boxes of gold and three The little girl buried all the jewels in the box, piled up the soil, and the little girl stepped on the soil with her feet. After all this was done, the sky was slightly pale, and the little girl clapped her hands, stretched her waist, and yawned , covered his mouth and went into the room to catch up on sleep.

As soon as the sky was bright, the yamen servants came to the Yaoxiang hall in twos and threes, and the courtyard was noisy.

After digging pits and filling gold all night, the little girl who slept for half an hour was woken up.

He simply didn't sleep anymore, and after washing up, he got up and started working according to the old time.

Zhoufu
After a night of absurdity, Mrs. Zhou accompanied Zhou Bi to the Medicine Fragrance Hall early the next morning under Zhou Bi's hard work.

Entering the Yaoxiang Hall, Zhou Bi ran into the government servants who came out of the yard head-on.

The yamen servants each carried a bamboo basket and followed behind that little girl Li Yan. Judging by the situation, they should go up the mountain to collect herbs.

Zhou Bi could tell that Li Yan was very serious about making medicines, and these yamen servants were also very serious, full of energy, drinking five or six, much more active than when they were in the yamen.

Zhou Bi felt sour in his heart.

"Morning, my lord." Seeing that his face remained unchanged, the yamen servants greeted him calmly.

After that, he passed him and walked out of the yard.

These yamen servants used their rest time to help Li Yan collect medicines. Even if Zhou Bi, the county magistrate, had no right to interfere with their spontaneous behavior.

What's more, this matter was reached with Zhou Bi's tacit consent.

Such acquiescence has now naturally become the norm.

After greeting him, the servants smiled and waved to Li Yan.

"Miss Li, let's go out."

Zhou Bi clicked his tongue and got sour again.

His nominal Shangfeng is no better than a little girl.

After the acid passed, Zhou Bi frowned, feeling worried.

He lost his composure after drinking last night, said the wrong thing, and exposed his old background. It is too difficult to speak now, and he is really a little cowardly.

Mrs. Zhou glanced at him, found an excuse and walked away. Let the master talk about such a shameful thing.

After Mrs. Zhou left, Zhou Bi blushed, and was thinking of saying something nice to brighten the atmosphere, when the little girl spoke first, "Father, you came just in time, I was looking for you on something?"

Zhou Bi's whole body trembled.

No way, the little ancestor is so shameless.

Anyway, they are already father and daughter in name, and they are going to be carried early in the morning?
His legs were a little weak from the noisy last night.

In order to let her take a breather, he even came here to show his weakness, isn't that okay?

Zhou Bi avoided looking at the herbs in the yard. In broad daylight, his old face was naked like these spread herbs.

The mistakes I made, I have to bite the bullet and get rid of them.

Zhou Bi was shy, like a big girl.

Li Yan looked at him amusedly, and relieved, "Father, don't be nervous, it's a good thing I'm looking for you."

Zhou Bi's eyes widened, not believing it.

I am not afraid that the little ancestor has a bad temper, but I am afraid that the little ancestor has a good temper.

He buried her like that last night, with the temperament of the little ancestor, it's fine if he doesn't torture him to death, but can something good come to him?

When he is stupid.

Zhou Bi picked up a root of herb, chewed it, and waited for the next article.

"Father." The little girl shouted in his ear.

This loud cry brought back Zhou Bi's soul, spit out the herbal medicine in his mouth, and looked at her speechlessly.

"Father, it's really a good thing."

While fiddling with herbs with a smile, Li Yan threw a thunderbolt at him, "I don't want the 2000 taels of gold that I said before."

Zhou Bi was directly blown out by these words.

"What, you don't want it anymore?"

Zhou Bi shrank his pupils and looked at her with disbelief.

One of the little ancestors was greedy for money, 2000 taels of gold, if you say no, you don’t want it, even if you beat him to death, he wouldn’t believe it.

He shook his head again and again and said, "No, I will give it to you as agreed, and I have already issued an IOU. This officer is very trustworthy, he will do what he says, and he will never go back on his word."

I was really panicking, what kind of trouble was going to be done.

Zhou Bi looked anxious and sweated.

Li Yan didn't sort out the herbal medicine anymore, and took out the IOU from her sleeve pocket in front of him, showing her sincerity, "Here, here you are."

Carry them all with you, greedy for money.

Zhou Bi believes that she has a ghost, and there is definitely something waiting for him.

Zhou Bi stared at the IOU spread out in the girl's hand, but didn't stretch out his hand.

Seeing that he looked like an enemy, Li Yan was amused by him, and forced the IOU into his hand. Zhou Bi jumped up and threw the IOU back to her as if he had touched a sweet potato.

Seeing this, Li Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You are my adoptive father now, we are all a family, I can still ask for your money."

Gu Xuan thinks highly of Zhou Bi, and will support him sooner or later.

After the 2000 taels of golden week, I have nothing to lose, and I definitely can't get it out. The money still has to go to the county government's public account.

Whether it is a clear account or a hidden account, no matter how thorough the things you have done, you will always leave traces.

If nothing happens, everything will be fine.

Once something happened, it would be a stain on Zhou Bi's official career.

Originally, she thought that Zhou Bi had been the county magistrate in Hejun County for ten years. If nothing happened, his official career would come to an end. The affairs in the officialdom were extremely complicated. Zhou Bi came from a poor family and had no support behind him. Also normal.

It is not a big deal to move 2000 taels of gold on the account of praying for rain, after all, it is famous.

But she and Zhou Bi got married and got married, so it's not clear.

At that time, it is not impossible for Zhou Bian to be accused of using power for personal gain and enriching his own pocket.
