Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 69 Can do things that cannot be said

He gestured to walk out and shouted, "I can't bear it, aunt, please find someone else for me!"

"Stop it, stop it!" Mrs. Zeng held out her hand to stop him. The more she stopped Mr. Zeng, the more energetic she became.

It happened that the courtyard door rang at this time, "Second sister-in-law, did you enjoy watching the theater? There are people at home, why don't you open the door."

"Third brother, what are you talking about?" The second sister-in-law wanted to scold him.

But now Zeng Laosan is the new emperor of the family. How can Mrs. Zeng be willing to let others lecture Zeng Laosan, "Open the door when I ask you to open it, and you can't do anything?"

The second sister-in-law kept mumbling reluctantly that the person knocking on the door was none other than Boss Zeng who had sent him off to the front door.

"What's wrong? I can hear the noise at home while I'm outside."

"The eldest brother has established a relationship with Li Zheng, and his words are tougher than before." The second sister-in-law said: "Don't forget to win over brothers in the future."

Zeng Laosan took advantage of his injuries and lay down directly on the ground.

His mother was so anxious that she said, "What's wrong! Third child, what's wrong with you? Boss, go and call the doctor."

"No!" Zeng Laosan pretended to be weak and shook his head, "I can't listen, I can't listen..."

Mrs. Zeng leaned close to his mouth and listened, "What can't you hear?"

"I can't listen to my second sister-in-law's speech. My wound hurts when she speaks."

Mei Zi looked at it and wanted to laugh. The third child was a rare understanding person in the family. This understanding person also understood now that it was unreasonable to the other people in the family.

"Third brother!" Boss Zeng quickly ran to his side. "I'll carry you back to your room to rest first. How can you lie on the ground before your injury heals? Mother, help me."

Mrs. Zeng always gives priority to her son. She doesn't care about anything else at the moment and helps Zeng Laosan on the eldest son's back.

Before leaving, Boss Zeng looked at Mei Zi and said, "You take the package to the kitchen first. There is medicine in it. Take it out and cook it first."

Mrs. Zeng cared about her son all the way to the bedside, but Mr. Zeng suddenly grabbed her and said, "Mom, I'm worried that my second sister-in-law will take away my medicine. Please go to the kitchen and have a look."

"What are you talking about? Why does she want your medicine?"

"That's a good medicine that the adults from Beishan County rewarded me with. It's worth a lot of money. The second sister-in-law has seen it a lot, so she must know it. When the time comes, she will snatch the medicine away. She will push it on the elder sister-in-law and say that she didn't keep it properly. Are you still willing to blame her?

Even if you blame her, my injury won't heal!Go and have a look! "

Otherwise, Zeng Laosan still knows everyone in this family.

After listening to her youngest son's words, Mrs. Zeng deliberately kept her footsteps quiet when she went to the kitchen. Sure enough, she saw the second daughter-in-law standing next to the eldest daughter-in-law, reaching out to grab the packages, "Sister-in-law, you don't know how to do any delicate work. Leave it to me to prepare the medicine from now on."

Mrs. Zeng knew that this second daughter-in-law was usually as lazy as possible and would never rush to grab a job.

Sure enough, she was interested in the medicine, which was the medicine for her youngest son's injuries!This greedy guy!

"What do you want to do!" Mr. Zeng scolded his second daughter-in-law for the first time in many years.

Chi Chunmei was pointed in the face and scolded, and was eventually kicked out of the kitchen and was not allowed to enter.

The few packages they brought back were also collected by Mrs. Zeng herself. She made medicine and cooked rice by herself every day.

After driving all the way and making a fuss for a while, Meizi felt extremely tired when she lay on the bed.

But I'm tired, but I can't sleep.

This bed and the quilt on the bed are not as warm as the cave in Beishan County.

Boss Zeng also knew that she was not asleep. He sat up and opened the cotton-padded jacket covering the end of the bed and took out a piece of stuff.

"Look." He handed it to Mei Zi like a treasure. "What's this?"

"It's two pieces of armor." Boss Zeng said, "When I was cleaning the battlefield, I hid it when no one was around."

"How dare you? Aren't these things all going to be handed over to the Lord's warehouse?"

"Not only me, but the group of people who went out after us all tried their best to hide."

"Is this illegal?" Mei Zi touched the deformed armor, which had uneven patterns printed on it.

"You can't shout out openly, but the adult saw it when I hid it, and he didn't say anything."

"Are you sure this is your tacit consent?"

"Otherwise, how could I dare to take it? Wouldn't I get into trouble?" Boss Zeng said, "Tomorrow I will go out to find a trustworthy blacksmith and melt these two pieces. Then I can exchange for some money and buy some things for my family. Meizi, what would you like?"

After Meng Changqing finished talking to the people, she had to talk to the soldiers again, which gave her a taste of what it was like to be a leader holding a meeting for a day.

We haven't decided yet what to do, but the mobilization meeting will start first.

Meng Changqing rubbed his face when he returned to the Yamen.

"Changqing." Wen and Liang Jiujiu came in with a casserole, "You must have talked a lot today, drink some soup to moisten your throat."

"Thank you mother, thank you mother."

"You have something to worry about." Wen said.

"To be honest with mother, there are indeed many things going on."

Liang Jiujiu put the casserole in front of her, "Take a sip of the soup and tell your mother if you don't understand anything."

Wen said: "If there are too many things, do the most important things first."

Meng Changqing reported what he had to do at the moment, "The official road can be repaired after the land is planted. Just send two people to the post to take care of it first. The difficulty is now. Housing and land reclamation are equally important, but I don’t have enough people on hand.”

"You should react to Mr. Wei about the shortage of manpower." Wen said, "I think you seem to be worried about other things."

"Indeed." Meng Changqing took out the map of Beishan County that he drew. There was nothing in it except the framed borders and the two mountains in the middle.

“When I asked people to draw the map, I also asked people to measure the size of Beishan County. It was not much different from what I estimated at that time. Not counting mountains, it only covers an area of ​​less than 40 acres.

As a county, it is really small and pitiful.

I was thinking about how to plan and manage such a place. "

Meng Changqing pointed to the center of the map and said: "The two dangerous mountains in the middle are really an eyesore. If I place the town on the north side, people traveling to and from Yangmen County will inevitably be robbed by them.

But if the town is located on the south side, although it is closer to Yangmen County, the location on this side is small and difficult to extend.

What does the mother think should be done? "

Wenshi said: "Wherever your county government is located, that side is the center of the town. Since it is difficult to extend the south side, it should be located on the north side.

The terrain cannot be changed, but the people on this mountain have solutions no matter how difficult it is. "

"What mother said makes sense." Meng Changqing received her advice, but felt that he was asking for trouble before.

At this moment, she suddenly felt like she had thoughts, and immediately started drawing on the paper, forgetting to drink the soup she had put aside.

Zhang Feng returned to the capital five days later.
