Early Tang Dynasty: forge ahead

Chapter 67 The only kindness shown to Ren Yazi

Chen Qingsi gave Fei Quan and Fei An fifteen Tongbao each on the spot to show his attitude.

The powerlessness of facing similar situations in later generations, in this era, it is natural to make yourself feel more relaxed.

Bandits and the like can be treated according to the situation, but people must not be treated lightly.

Fei Quan and Fei An held the fifteen Tongbao tightly in their arms. They glanced at the kind county magistrate in front of them with some awe, and felt a surge of strength in their hearts. Next time they encounter this kind of situation, they should give more to the thieves. Two hoes, otherwise these fifteen Tongbao will deserve it.

Brothers Fei Quan and Fei An were a little timid when facing Chen Qingsi, but as soon as they walked out of the county government gate, they immediately became arrogant, puffed out their chests, and swaggered so proudly that their heads were raised to the sky.

The common people who had followed the two of them all the way felt regretful at this moment. If I had helped them out at that time, would I have had my own share of the reward?
They each made up their minds that next time they encounter this kind of situation, they have to act quickly.

The people watching outside the county government office also had the same expression, thinking that if they encountered such a situation, they would seize the opportunity.

"County Magistrate Chen, you don't know what to do with the corpse of this thief?"

Hao asked with a bit of timidity.

Even though her brother had done such a thing, Hao herself hated him deeply and didn't know how to face her parents-in-law, her children and her neighbors.

But after all, we have the love of flesh and blood, and if we can help him to be buried, I still want to give him one last dignity.

Chen Qingsi looked at Mr. Hao in front of him and said, "Want to bury him?"

Hao nodded.

Chen Qingsi said: "Let's collect the body tomorrow..."

As he spoke, he immediately said to Kuang Zheng: "Carry this guy down and burn him."

After hearing what Chen Qingsi said, even Kuang Zheng was stunned for a moment.

Hao looked at the gentle young county magistrate with some disbelief.

In ancient times, there was a saying that the deceased was the greatest, and all past grievances and grievances were settled once a person died.

Therefore, even if it was a death row criminal who was beheaded or cut in half, the court allowed the criminal's family to collect the body. Even if it was a person with a long history of evil, the corpse would only be exposed for three days, and then the family would take it away, sew it up, and bury it.

Some people even travel thousands of miles to transport bodies in order to bury them in their hometown.

It is indeed shocking that Chen Qingsi directly burns criminals to ashes.

Chen Qingsi didn't explain that much, but just left one sentence: "Not spreading his ashes was the only kindness I showed to Ren Yazi."

He glanced at the dark little mute.

The little mute was a little afraid of him, and when he met his gaze, he shrank back.

Chen Qingsi said: "Send this child home. How did this mother become a child? The child was almost abducted. Until now, no one has seen him."

Kuang Zheng whispered: "Ms. Zhang went to visit relatives in Tonglu County and entrusted the child to Mr. Hao. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen!"

Chen Qingsi asked: "Can you tell me how long Zhang will be gone?"

Hao's eyes were filled with tears and he whispered: "As little as three days, as long as five days."

Chen Qingsi was suspicious and asked, "Does Mr. Zhang often visit relatives?"

Mr. Hao shook his head and said, "Not very often. When I was in Gaotong Village, I went there once every six months. In the past year, I have gone more frequently, once every two or three months."

Chen Qingsi wanted to ask again, but the little mute suddenly let out a cry of "wow wah wah" and ran outside.

Chen Qingsi had good eyesight and quick hands. She quickly caught up with him and hugged the little mute. When she saw that he was trying to bite her, she wanted to subdue him, but she was afraid of hurting him, so she just carried him on her shoulders.

The little mute was dancing and moving.

Chen Qingsi slapped the opponent's butt directly.The little mute's butt was hit so hard that he stopped moving as if he was electrocuted.

As expected, the naughty child will become honest only after being beaten.

Chen Qingsi did not continue to ask, and just said: "This child is probably scared. Let's do this. If it is not suitable to continue living at your place, let him live in the county government office. When Zhang comes back, you ask her to come to the county government office to receive people. I It’s easy for the officer to give her a lesson, how can anyone take care of a child like this?”

Mr. Hao had no shame to take the little mute back, looked at his brother's body that was dragged away, and left crying.

The little mute was slapped and obeyed, lying motionless on his shoulder.

Chen Qingsi put him down. Seeing his red eyes, she felt a little regretful and said, "Be obedient and wait for your mother at the county government office."

The little mute nodded slightly.

Chen Qingsi pulled the little mute towards the back of the government office, and the little mute shrank.

Chen Qingsi said as gently as possible: "Don't be afraid, the county magistrate brother doesn't know how to eat people."

The little mute stopped moving.

After explaining the little mute's situation to Xiao Miaochen in detail, Xiao Miaochen looked at the little mute distressedly and asked Qian Yan to take him to wash up.

Xiao Miaochen whispered: "This child is very pitiful. He suffered a serious illness in his early years and has been unable to speak since. His father also died fighting with the rebels, leaving his mother alone in the family."

Chen Qingsi said: "Do you recognize her?"

Xiao Miaochen nodded and said: "My student in Class B is called Sun Qing. Even though he is dark, he looks pretty. He is just very naughty and dirty."

After being a Tian teacher for a while, Xiao Miaochen has already integrated into it, with a sense of responsibility and love, and said: "How about we ask a doctor to look at her and maybe she can be cured."

"It's up to you!" Chen Qingsi didn't care much. The Tang Dynasty also had high salaries to support integrity, and the salary of officials was second only to the Song Dynasty among previous dynasties.

The salary of Chen Qingsi, a seventh-grade sesame official, is enough to support his family and there is still some leftover.

Xiao Miaochen was in charge of accounting, and Chen Qingsi never asked how to use it.

After the little mute Sun Qing washed up, it turned out that just as Xiao Miaochen said, his facial features were extremely delicate, but his dark complexion greatly lowered the little guy's appearance.

The family had a full meal with a bottle of oil, and Xiao Miaochen discussed where Sun Qing should sleep.

"Let him squeeze in with Qingkong?"

Chen Qingsi felt a little disgusted when he heard Xiao Miaochen. There were many vacant rooms in the backyard of the county government office. However, due to the rebels' attack, many of the houses were dilapidated and there was no time to renovate them.

The better rooms were divided between the couple, Qianyan, Qingkong, Kuangzheng and Jiang Chen.

"Let the little one sleep with me! Let Qingkong sleep in the main room... The situation in the county is very good now. I will find some people to repair the county office a little tomorrow, so that there will be no guests at all."

The bed in the main room was large, and sometimes Chen Qingsi would sleep with Xiao Miaochen and Qianyan, the girl in the room, together under the quilt.

Not to mention sleeping three, sleeping four is not a problem.

When Sun Qing heard this, he was greatly frightened and ran to hide behind Xiao Miaochen, babbling, not happy.

Chen Qingsi suddenly became angry. You don't even want to sleep with me, but you still want to sleep with my wife?

Can you be confident at a young age?

He grabbed the little guy like a chicken and walked to the study. He didn't want to sleep until he copied the "Three Character Classic" three times...
