Chapter 148 Meet an acquaintance again
Qiangwei was overjoyed when she heard it, pulled Zheng Maocheng's sleeve, and said pitifully, "Daddy, can I go to the county with you? I haven't been there yet?"

"This? Daddy is also going in Uncle Cui's carriage, which will cause trouble." Zheng Maocheng rubbed Qiangwei's mane, glanced at Cui Dafu, and said to him apologetically.

"Oh, a baby, it doesn't take up space, so just go, my carriage is spacious." Cui Dafu was anxious to finish his work and go back as soon as possible.

On the way to the county, I passed Da'ao Village, and just happened to send Pan Lizheng back. Sitting in Cui Dafu's carriage, Qiangwei understood what he meant by spaciousness.This guy is clearly a fun-loving guy.Let alone three people, even if there are three more people can sit down.

The speed and comfort of the carriage drove the ox cart several blocks away, and it took an hour and a half to arrive at the county seat - Wenzhu County.

Qiangwei looked at the scenery outside through the small window of the carriage, and it was indeed much more prosperous than the town.The bustling crowds on the street, the mobile small vendors, the sound of hawking and soliciting business, there is an endless stream.

The carriage took them all the way to the corner of the yamen before stopping. After getting off the car, they were taken by Cui Dafu to the office area of ​​the yamen, "Brother Zheng, wait a moment, I'll go find the master here, there are people who can do things, and it's good Simpler procedures."

When Zheng Maocheng heard this, he quickly agreed, and took Qiangwei to stand beside him and waited. He and Lizheng had been here several times in the county, and they were quite familiar with each other. Looking at the people shuttling back and forth in the yard, everything big and small had to be done. For the record here, it is the busiest department.

Wenzhu County was not a big county in the Jinyue Dynasty, and it was located in a remote area, such as land sales, household registration and relocation, population transaction registration, etc., were all handled together, which shows how busy it is.

Qiangwei blinked, "Daddy, do you think this Cui Dafu is looking for Mr. Liu?" It's good to know acquaintances, but I don't know how familiar they are.

"Is this so? There should be only one master in a county, right?" Zheng Maocheng also hoped that it was Master Liu, no matter how close he was, he was familiar with him.

After a while, Qiangwei saw Cui Dafu swaying his fat body and bowing his head to follow a person from a distance, and took a closer look, isn't it Master Liu?Qiangwei was delighted when she saw it, and seeing Cui Dafu's obsequiousness, she probably didn't have a good relationship.

It is sad enough to say that the lowest status in this era is those local tyrants and gentry who have a little money but don't even know a word, and their status is worse than that of a businessman.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, they didn't take any of them!

When someone came to the front, Qiangwei bowed to Master Liu with crooked eyebrows, "Grandpa Liu is well."

"Huh, it's you?" Master Liu saw Zheng Maocheng's father and daughter's eyes lit up, stroking their beards, nodding and smiling, and the attitude towards Cui Dafu was obviously different.Cui Dafu, who watched, was dissatisfied and did not dare to show it. Identity means everything.

Because Master Liu has an official position, Zheng Maocheng also hurriedly greeted him, "I have to trouble Master Liu again."

Cui Dafu felt bad, he only saw it after stuffing money, he didn't expect the Zheng family to know him, if he knew it earlier, he wouldn't have to spend this wronged money.

"Hehe, Master Liu and Brother Zheng know each other? It's a coincidence." Cui Dafu said with a bit gritty teeth. Isn't this Zheng family a farmer?How do you know people in the county?Suddenly, he was a little confused.

"We do know each other. The last time I was a guest in the village, I still remember the taste of the countryside." Master Liu did not disappoint Cui Dafu, and looked at Zheng Maocheng and his daughter with a smile.

"Hehe, Mr. Liu is very busy. If you have time to go to the village again, we will be waiting for you." Zheng Maocheng laughed and invited repeatedly.

"Okay, I will definitely go to Houshan Village again." The county master is already interested, and it probably won't take much time.

The corners of Cui Dafu's mouth were very stiff when he smiled, "Brother Zheng is blessed, he went around and let us get together again, why don't I be the host today, so we can catch up on the old days together?"

"Get down to business first. It's the most important thing. Come with me." Master Liu didn't object or agree, and directly changed the topic.

"That's right, let's get down to business first, hehe..." Cui Dafu smiled wryly, he knew that his status would be looked down upon by others, but the treatment was too obvious, right?
Qiangwei lowered her eyebrows, and followed Zheng Maocheng obediently all the time. When she walked to a window, Master Liu called a copywriter to handle the matter, and handed over the materials for their transfer to him.After explaining again, the copywriter took a special look at Zheng Maocheng, and then nodded.

Zheng Maocheng and the others were arranged by Master Liu in a guest room, "Wait here for a while, it will be ready soon."

Qiangwei looked at the simply decorated guest room, and thought that there are all kinds of people who usually come to go through the formalities. Of course, there is a gap between the rich and the poor, so this should be considered a VIP room.

After about an incense stick, the copywriter came over with the title deed document, "Master Liu, everything is done and the file is saved,"

"Well, okay, give it to Brother Zheng." Master Liu waved his hand, and respectfully handed a copy of the copy to Zheng Maocheng and Cui Dafu.

"Thank you, hard work." Zheng Maocheng took the land deed, trembling with excitement, Qiangwei expressed her understanding, and even her heart was surging.

  After the matter is done, I have to express it no matter what.But Qiangwei looked at Cui Dafu, she didn't mean anything, she couldn't help complaining in her heart, no wonder everyone hated those local gentry with a bit of family background, besides being full of fat, they were just stingy and stingy.

  Since she was shameless, Qiangwei no longer hesitated, took out a small red envelope from her purse, stood up and stuffed it into the hand of the copywriter, "Uncle Hard Work, take a cup of tea." Because it was not specially prepared, it contained A silver nude the size of one tael.

  "Well, what an embarrassment, you are friends of Lord Liu, so I can't accept it." The copywriter seemed a little older than Zheng Maocheng, and he often worked at the window, and he was very clear about these things.

  He glanced at Master Liu and saw that he didn't intend to blame him, so he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

  "Since the girl is thanking you, let me accept it." Master Liu took a sip of tea, glanced at the little girl, and smiled faintly from the corner of his eyes. She is a clever baby, but I don't know if it was her own idea or the adult's instruction. ?

  "Thank you, miss, for the reward." The copywriter knew the weight as soon as he took over, and he was overjoyed, and thanked again and again and withdrew.

  Of course, Cui Dafu also saw Qiangwei's actions, except for a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, he immediately turned his head away.Really, does an errand runner use such dog legs?Gifts should also be given to those in charge, like Mr. Liu, at least someone who can talk.

  But he ignored it. Mr. Liu didn't like him at all. Sometimes, the little people couldn't ignore him. As the saying goes, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one.

  Qiangwei didn't bother to pay attention to Cui Dafu's face, and wondered how his family property was earned, and he didn't even distinguish the occasion.Didn't he notice that Master Liu looked at him with disgust?

  Zheng Maocheng was only happy with Qiangwei's actions, and he didn't think it was wrong at all. At this time, he looked at the land deed in his hand, and he still couldn't hide his excitement. It was still the names of Zheng Wenhui and Wen Tao, and their family background was a little thicker!

  "Father, be happy. No matter how happy you are, you have to settle Uncle Cui's money." Qiangwei reminded the dizzy father, who was already a little anxious when he didn't see Cui Dafu, and kept trying to open his mouth, but Due to Master Liu's face, I tried my best to bear it.

  "Ah, that's right, this is 500 taels of silver, you keep it, and you will get both money and goods." Zheng Maocheng quickly took out the bank note from his pocket and handed it to Cui Dafu.

  "Hehe, good, both money and goods." Cui Dafu smiled stiffly, and said that more than 100 mu changed hands and then changed hands, still a little bit reluctant in his heart.Seeing the happy face of the Zheng family, he still opened his mouth in a hypocritical way.

  "Brother Zheng, Brother Cui reminds you that the villagers in Da'ao Village are not very talkative, so be careful."

  "Ah? Why?" Zheng Maocheng looked at him and asked.

  "That's right, Uncle Cui, why didn't you tell me so long ago." Qiangwei asked innocently, pretending to have deep brotherly love, as an afterthought, hoping that they would appreciate it?
  "This...I think you have all been to Daao Village, and you already know about it." Cui Dafu regretted it, feeling a little like throwing a stone at his foot.

  "The land has been transferred, so don't think about anything else. You can come to me if you have anything to do in the future. I won't refuse if I can solve it for Brother Zheng." Disgusted, didn't even bother to look at him again.

  "Thank you, Master Liu," Zheng Maocheng said with a look of emotion, which was tantamount to solving his worries.

  "Thank you very much, Grandpa Liu. Next time you come to our village, you must ask daddy to prepare a lot of good wine." Qiangwei is very grateful for Master Liu's support. Compared with Cui Dafu's resignation, this is a timely gift.

  I also know that Master Li is not used to Cui Dafu's way of life, so he said that, it's all right now, with the backing of the Yamen in the future, Cui Dafu will send the news if he wants to come.

  I have to tell the truth about Qiangwei. Cui Dafu doesn't know what it feels like at this moment. The people he has been fawning over dismiss him, but he is so enthusiastic about a country boy who suddenly became rich. .

  After the matter was finished, several people were about to get up and leave. They all knew that Mr. Liu had official duties and it was impossible to accompany them all the time. He was very grateful for being able to help with matters.

  "Isn't Mr. Liu on duty today? I have something to look for him, has any of you seen it?"

  She was about to leave when she was suddenly interrupted. Qiangwei frowned when she heard the voice, why was it familiar?

Master Liu also heard it, pushed the door and walked out, followed by Qiangwei and the others.

Seeing the young master standing in the yard, Qiangwei was happy.

She felt that the voice was familiar, and seeing the person was so familiar!
