Chapter 109 Class
The passage of time causes gray hair, and life is unpredictable and things are complicated.

Zhou Xing of this era did not know this seven-character ancient poem from later generations.

But he was really lamenting the ever-changing world, and felt that gray hairs suddenly appeared on his temples.

It was obvious that he just followed Lady Gongsun's instructions and went to take a nap.

Why was there a stranger standing next to Mrs. Gongsun, and she was arranged to be his assistant, as if she wanted to replace him.

"Everyone, this is Zilong's uncle, Mr. Zhao Xi Zhao."

Gongsun Yan introduced everyone with a smile.

The old man wearing a bamboo-green scholar's robe on the side lowered his eyes and cupped his hands, and bowed to everyone meticulously.

Everyone in the room had different expressions and turned aside to avoid him.

Tian Kai carefully looked at this old man who had just arrived and was announced by Gongsun Yan that he would be entrusted with an important task.

There was a thoughtful look on his face. He knew that the young lady trusted Zilong very much, but he didn't expect that she could trust her to such an extent.

He did not question Zilong's character and loyalty, but would it be easy for trouble to arise if Zilong was in charge of the army outside and under the control of his uncle?

And although the manager Zhou Xing is a little weak, he has been working hard for several years. Isn't this inappropriate?
Thinking in his heart, Tian Kai didn't show anything strange on his face and greeted Mr. Zhao Xi politely.

If Zhou Xing is the most worried and anxious among everyone present, then Xia Houlan is the most confused.

He and Zhao Yun were from the same hometown and grew up together since childhood. Zhao's family name was Changshan, but he had never heard of Zhao Yun having such a close cousin, but Xia Houlan couldn't question it.

The old man's eyebrows and chin are similar to Zhao Yun's. I'm afraid that people who don't know him will mistake them for father and son.

"I've met Uncle Zhao." Xia Houlan bowed honestly.

"Are you Zixiu?"

"Exactly."

This Uncle Zhao must be a man of few words, Xia Houlan thought after hearing the old man's stiff voice.

"I heard that Zilong and you have been friends since childhood. Zilong was naughty and asked Zixiu to be more considerate." Zhao Xi said expressionlessly.

"What?" Xia Houlan was stunned by his words, Zhao Yun is naughty?
Zhao Yun has always been so steady since he was a child, and naughtiness has never had anything to do with him.

"Ah, in the eyes of elders, juniors are all naughty, right? Zilong." Gongsun Yan laughed a few times and hurriedly smoothed things over.

It seems that because it just left the factory, the personality simulation is not running smoothly?

This system manager doesn't seem very smart.

"Yes, Yun was very naughty when he was young. He has been separated from his uncle for many years, so he may not have gotten used to it yet." Zhao Yun on the side also said seriously.

Xia Houlan also felt that his reaction seemed disrespectful and hurriedly confessed.

At this time, Gongsun Yan noticed Zhou Xing, who was stooped and had a bitter look on his face.

She knew that such an arrangement would make Zhou Xing think what he wanted, so she called him: "Manager Zhou, don't think too much about it. In the short term, you will be the principal, and Uncle Zhao will be the deputy."

"Yes." Zhou Xing felt as if he had fallen into an ice hole, and his whole body was shivering.

Hey, too!He first reduced the rent privately and then failed to control the situation well. Even if he ended up like this, he had no one to blame.

Zhou Xing lowered his head.

Tian Kai opened his mouth to intercede for Zhou Xing, but even Xia Houlan looked troubled.

Seeing that Zhou Xing was extremely depressed, Gongsun Yan was worried that he would be too depressed and lose a few more of his sparse hair. He quickly winked at Zhao Yun and came up with the comfort plan he had prepared: "Manager Zhou, I have other important matters later."

Zhao Yun stepped forward, took out a small copper turtle button from his arms, and invited: "I would like to ask Manager Zhou to go to Lulong County with me." "Wha, what?"

Zhou Xing opened his mouth in confusion.

"Yun is now the magistrate of Lulong County and also the captain of Zhansai. He is in a foreign land and is not familiar with everything in Lulong County. He needs someone with outstanding knowledge like Mr. Zhou to guide Yun."

"If Mr. Meng does not give up, he may be temporarily appointed as the county magistrate of Lulong County to assist Yu Yun."

Zhou Xing stood there at a loss, not knowing how to react. When he saw Zhao Yun holding turtle buttons in both hands and bowing down, how could he really dare to accept his gift?

He hurriedly lifted him up with both hands and took the turtle button uncontrollably.

Zhou Xing's father was from Jia, and his mother was just a Hu slave, with the lowest background.

For him, it was a blessing to be able to take charge of the manor for Gongsun Zan and be a big steward.

He had previously used tricks like wearing Ge Yi to gain fame in front of his master's wife, but it was only because he was unwilling to do so, so that his descendants could escape from such a lowly status of being dependent on the master's family.

The magistrate of a county may be nothing in the eyes of the big shots, but this is a [-]-ton local official who was recruited and received official food.

This status, for Zhou Xing and his family, was a class leap from a humble status to an official recognized by the regime.

After that, his children and grandchildren can also get rid of their lowly status.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xing burst into tears.

Everyone present was born in the Tian family of Yuyang, Tian Kai, but he was just a concubine.

Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan were both from humble families.

They all know what a class leap and an opportunity mean to a lowly person.

No one disturbed Zhou Xing at this time.

Tian Kai thought of Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan also gave him a chance to get ahead in this way.

Only Gongsun Yan, who came from a later generation and had never truly experienced the profound impact that class can have on people, saw Zhou Xing crying hoarsely and wanted to offer some words of comfort.

Zhao Yun shook his head gently at her. She was stunned for a moment and said nothing.

After a long time, Zhou Xing finally stopped crying and held the small turtle button with both hands.

He stood up and saluted Gongsun Yan first, and then saluted Zhao Yun without waiting for Gongsun Yan's reaction.

"Thank you, little lady, for making it possible, and thank you Captain Zhao for making it possible."

He knew that this matter must be promoted and approved by Gongsun Yan, otherwise Zhao Yun would never suddenly conquer someone else's manor and serve as an official.

He also knew that even if Gongsun Yan pushed for it, Zhao Yun would have to give permission, otherwise how could he, a lowly person like him, become the county magistrate.

He did not play the three-push-three-give trick like the officialdom of the old days. He was afraid that he would give away this golden opportunity.

He sniffed, raised his arm and wiped his face, still holding Fang Xiaoyin in his hand.

Seeing him like this, Gongsunyan couldn't help but laugh, and said jokingly: "Manager Zhou, no, County Magistrate Zhou, it will be a while before you take up the post. Recently, the affairs of the village still need more attention from you."

"Don't worry, little lady. Thanks to my great kindness, I will be the supervisor all my life. Once my lady has something to do, I will do whatever I can to help you."

Zhou Xing knew in his heart that there was no one else in the room at this time, so he showed his loyalty solemnly.

Then he turned to the system steward who had been standing aside with an expressionless face and said: "Mr. Zhao, please rest assured. I will hand over all affairs in the village and will never hide any secrets."

"Yes." The system steward Zhao Xi responded with a dull face, paused, and then gave Zhou Xing a stiff smile with the corners of his mouth pulled up, "Congratulations!"
