Chapter 161 Familiar
Mayor Wu couldn't help looking at Du Xiaozhu twice, and thought to himself, "Is Du Shi really humble, or has he seen through his plan?"I did it on purpose! '

Of course, Du Xiaozhu didn't think so deeply, nor would he have thought that a person with no grudges or enmities would want to plot against her as soon as they met.

I just thought, they are all from the village, and if you can call them here immediately, it is also a favor, and there is nothing real to repay.

And the reason why Mayor Wu wanted to plot against her was not just to ensure that he would continue to make money. After all, a small village head like Wang Biao paid him a lot of filial piety a year, which shows that he is also good at making money.

Such a person, he naturally wants to protect him. If he directly puts the hat of framing on the Yang family, then naturally, the fat aunt's accusation will not be established, let alone this Wang Biao is his own, he is in This Du Shi has suffered several losses in a row, so he naturally wants to get back in this place, so that he can work harder for him in the future.

It's just that he didn't expect that this little woman was much more difficult than he thought.

Just as he was about to say something else, he saw Yang Xiaomei running in in a hurry, seeing Du Xiaozhu in the house, regardless of other people, he directly pulled her sleeve and said, "Second sister-in-law, we are here at the door." The carriage said it was looking for you, mother told you to go home and have a look!"

It wasn't that Du Xiaomei was too courageous to ignore this group of people, but that she was overwhelmed by the excitement.

Yesterday, Du Xiaozhu agreed to invite them to join in the business. Unexpectedly, the second sister-in-law just went to the town today, and when she came back, a carriage would come to her door.

Donkey carts and ox carts are not uncommon in this town, but this is only a small town after all, not a prosperous place, and there are few mule carts coming and going in and out on weekdays, let alone horse carts.

What's more, since the Three Kings' Rebellion in the eighth year of Apocalypse, horses have been controlled by the government, and the government's approval is required to raise horses, and the tax on horses is quite high, which is not something ordinary people can afford.

There are only a few people in their town who can afford horses.

Hearing Xiaomei Yang's words, Mayor Wu couldn't help being slightly shocked, and couldn't help but ask, "Didn't the little girl make a mistake and mistake the mule cart for a carriage?"

It's no wonder that Mayor Wu is suspicious, after all, there are very few people raising horses in this town, and this country girl has even fewer chances to see horses.

Only then did Yang Xiaomei look at Mayor Wu, only to see a smile on his face, but no smile in his eyes, so she was a little scared, turned half of her body and hid behind Du Xiaozhu, only showing her head and said, "My elder brother joins the army When I went to see him off, anyone who has seen a horse will not admit his mistake."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a hearty voice from behind the human wall, "Mayor Wu thought that the county government couldn't even afford a horse?"

Hearing the sound, Mayor Wu stood up from the main seat with a jerk, took two steps forward, and then stood still. Then he saw that the people around the door moved out of the way, allowing the person who had just spoken to come in.

Du Xiaozhu also turned around to look at the person who came by, only seeing something familiar but didn't remember where he saw it.

Seeing that he was about the same age as Mayor Wu, and he was dressed in a soap-colored gown that made him stand upright. Just looking closely, he found that his shoulders seemed to be a little hunched, but it was hard to notice unless he did it deliberately.

Presumably it should be the result of sitting at the desk for a long time.
