When the three Fu family members entered the city, they were very enthusiastic. Even the local officials of Lingxian County seemed to be more enthusiastic than the local officials of Meiling county. As soon as they arrived, they surrounded Su Yi and went to the county government.

When he went to the streets, Su Wanping found that Ling county was more lively than Meiling county. Looking at the people who met each other on both sides of the road, they dressed better than the people in Meiling county. There were few patches on their clothes, most of them were cotton clothes, and there were some coarse clothes of Gebu. However, all of them were smart and vigorous, and there was no sign of decadence.

If you look at the green brick main road on the street, you can see that Lingxian is rich. The teahouses and restaurants on both sides of the main street are full of customers. Some people stand on the second floor and some stand under the corridor to watch.

However, it is obvious that the former magistrate did a good job, and these people are also full of confidence in the new magistrate.

Looking at the scene, Su Wanping suddenly thanks Fan Jing for his arrangement. Otherwise, her brother may have to go out to a remote place.

All the way slowly, we finally arrived at the gate of the county government office. All three of the Fu family were smiling.

Su Wanping helped his mother get out of the carriage. Many people exclaimed that the mother and daughter were really beautiful.

If you look at the county yamen, you can see that it is very powerful. There are lifelike kylin patterns carved on the screen walls in front of the yamen, which makes people awed.

Lai's face was kind and respectful. Together with Hu Dian, the master book, he introduced the new magistrate into the county yamen. After Zhaobi, there were three gates. The County Yamen in Lingxian county was much better than that in Meiling county. Even the red lacquer had never fallen off.

However, when I first came to Baodi, I didn't need to enter the Yamen hall, so I went around the back yard of the Yamen hall. The head of the county yamen was the place where the family members of the magistrate lived. When they were in Meiling County, Qizhi county and Tian family also lived in the back house of the county yamen when they first came to take office. However, old lady Qi came and had to buy a house.

There is a gate between the Yamen office and the back house, which is called the second gate. It has been locked for a long time. In order not to let the male who is in charge of errands enter the back house of the magistrate, you can only enter the back house through the side door, which can go to the front of the Yamen or go out to the street directly, so that the women in the house will not meet the man in the Yamen.

In front of the second gate, several people of Lai County didn't leave. It was a man who knew the rules.

However, when the three members of the Fu family entered the house, they were silly. Originally, there was a wall in the house, but it was dilapidated. So was the courtyard. The flowers and plants were adjusted to zero, and the courtyard could not be inhabited. It was not only dilapidated, but also some years old.

What's the matter? The government office is still in good condition. It's beautiful. Looking at Lingxian County, it's rich. But why is the house so unbearable.

When Su Yi saw him, his face was very ugly. This is his official residence. How can he treat him like this? At least he will repair it before the new magistrate comes. This can be built with silver.

Su Yi turned around and went to the meeting hall. Lai County Cheng, Hu Zhu Shu, Qu Dian Shi and others all came in. Su Yi asked about the house behind him.

However, he looked at Hu Zhushu, who quickly explained: "to the magistrate, we didn't do all this well. The last magistrate left a year ago. Now he went back to Beijing and didn't tell us when he left. After all, the magistrate who came to Lingxian County didn't want to live in the official residence behind, but they all bought their own residences outside Over the years, no one has said anything about it

"As subordinates, we can't open two doors to see the official's house. This is also a matter of overstepping, so this matter has been delayed. Now it is the magistrate who talked about it that we know. In this case, we will send someone to repair it immediately, but only the silver..."

Su Yi looked at master Hu with a serious look. Hu's face changed slightly. Lai county magistrate came out to fight the battle. "Magistrate, I will try to find a way to deal with the silver matters, just..."

Lai County Cheng looked at the assembly hall and said, "just a few of us came out."

"Why?"

Su Yi asked in a stern voice.

Lai County Cheng explained: "you don't know. You may be the first time to take office. It's normal for you to know. Liu Zhizhou made a rule that we shouldn't bother him with the monthly expenses of Lingxian every year. Therefore, he set all the expenses of the year at the beginning of the year. With the approval, we can get the money at one time. At the beginning of the year, we didn't know this official So... "

Lai County Cheng looks embarrassed.

Su Yi didn't say anything, so did Hu Zhushu. If Su Yi persisted in this way, he seemed to have some new official's temper.

After hearing this, Su Yi looked at master Hu and said, "in this way, master Hu is responsible for repairing the official house. You just need to hire some craftsmen to pay for the money. Since the county government can't pay for it, I'll pay for it by myself. I'll make it up at the beginning of next year. When the money comes down, I'll give it to me."

Lai County Cheng and Hu Zhu Shu looked at each other and hurriedly responded.

After the meeting hall was scattered, Su Yi went back to his house. Lai and Hu came together. They went to the secluded place. Lai looked puzzled and said, "I have inquired. This new magistrate is from a poor family. Now that the official house is built, he has his own money to pay for it. Is it possible that the rich gentry support him?"Hu nodded, "maybe so. The last magistrate was born in a poor family, so the official house couldn't be repaired. Finally, he didn't have to live in the small house we arranged. Because of this, we should be more kind to both of us."

"The new magistrate is not up to the mark. We have to find another way."

Hu suggested.

Lai Xiancheng nodded. He thought of the man in black and the letter he had seen that day and night. He said, "Hu Dian, don't worry. We don't have to worry about this person's staying in Lingxian County for a long time. As long as we are onlookers, if the new magistrate wants to implement the new policy, we can only follow our advice. Everything will be pushed to Liu Zhizhou, which will make him a new man The number one scholar in the discipline was born in a poor family. He didn't know how to be an official. If something happened in the future, he would have to bear it. I think he didn't dare to ask Liu Zhizhou, but he had no way to deal with us. "

When they said this, they looked at each other with a smile, and Hu went to look for craftsmen. He didn't even pay much attention to the ability of these craftsmen.

In the official residence, Su Wanping and Fu's people have already cleaned up the courtyard. Flowers and plants have been pulled out in the garden. The most depressing thing is that the wall is so bad that anyone can enter the back house of the county government. Compared with the front of the county government, it is a far cry. They can't have been unaware of it. It must have been intentional.
