Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 8402 Who do you look down on?

Changping Village.

Yang Huaming arrived in the village after noon.

"Qing'er, I came to you directly as soon as I got off the carriage, and I didn't even go to the old house."

In the small hall of the dormitory in the backyard of the Luo family, Yang Huaming took two sips of the hot tea in front of him, then took out two envelopes and put them on the table.

"Hey, here are two envelopes, one contains a letter written by the county magistrate Zhang to you and Tang Yazi, and the other contains a bank note, please see it yourself!" He said again.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Fourth Uncle, here's some snacks, and you have some snacks too."

Yang Huaming chuckled, grabbed a piece of Shuanghua winter melon candy and took a bite.

Frost flower winter melon candy is cool in the mouth, watery and glutinous, sweet but not greasy, and you can eat winter melon paste after careful chewing. It is very suitable for tea when drinking tea.

But Yang Huaming knew that this Frost Flower Winter Melon Candy was not cheap, and it couldn't be bought in Qingshui Town, so he had to go to Wanghai County to buy it.

Even if it is sold in Wanghai County, you have to go to a special store to buy authentic ones. As for the winter melon candies in those corner grocery stores... don't eat it!
Hey, he didn't read County Magistrate Zhang's letter because it was sealed with wax.

But the envelope containing the bank note was not sealed with wax. He had seen it, and it was a full 100 taels of silver note!
County magistrate Zhang deliberately did not seal the wax, probably because he clearly mentioned the denomination of the bank note in the letter, so he was sure that Yang Huaming would not dare to tamper with it.

Those who are really officials are hypocritical, they don't seal the wax, on the surface they trust him, but in fact... Bah, who do you look down on!
However, Yang Huaming believes that this trip to Qing'er will definitely not let him work for nothing. It was so cold last night that he stayed in the county to help with the account reconciliation. A carriage ride back... Qing'er should not treat me badly!
While Yang Huaming was pondering over and over again in his mind, he had already eaten several sticks of Shuanghua winter melon candy, and he was almost down to the bottom of a bowl of tea.

And at this moment, Yang Ruoqing finally finished reading the three pieces of letter paper from County Magistrate Zhang.

She put down the letter paper and rubbed her eyes.

To be honest, she dislikes the text templates of this era the most, just a bunch of traditional characters, and they are all read vertically from right to left.

God knows how much effort has been put into adapting to this way of reading for a person who has time-traveled from later generations!
Moreover, this County Magistrate Zhang speaks very detailed, so detailed that it is almost long-winded, and there is nothing wrong with the brush calligraphy, after all, he is a Jinshi.

Anyway, looking at the three letters, Yang Ruoqing's eyes were sore, and she probably understood what magistrate Zhang wanted to express.

The meaning expressed is very simple, that is, he led someone to copy Brother Dao's lair, and all the stolen goods under his name were handed over.

Then, based on the interrogation and account book records, a list of victims and defrauded persons will be sorted out. According to the defrauded amount, the victims will be contacted accordingly, and the money they lost will be refunded.

After the work is over, there is still some money left. Either the sufferer has been killed long ago, or the contact information cannot be found, so there is no way to return it, so that part is naturally confiscated.

In the words of County Magistrate Zhang in his letter, what is taken from the people and used by the people will be used to build Wanghai County and serve the people in the future.

What happened to the 100 taels of silver in the other envelope when it was over?
Let's just say it's a reward.

On behalf of the people of Wanghai County, County Magistrate Zhang thanked Yang Ruoqing, Luo Fengtang and the others uncovered Brother Dao's cancer, and cooperated with the government to eliminate harm for the people...

"Qing'er, what did the county magistrate say in the letter? Why did it take you so long?" Yang Huaming couldn't help asking as he estimated the time.

Yang Ruoqing said, "I don't understand some characters."

"What?" Yang Huaming thought he had heard wrong, and was a little dumbfounded.

"You still have words you don't understand? Don't fool fourth uncle." He said again immediately.

If Qing'er couldn't read some words, how could the business be so big?I ran all over the south and north, but I didn't see her getting lost or anything.

Yang Ruoqing just smiled and didn't answer the topic.

Why can't she be illiterate?
Not to mention her, even if the experts and masters who specialize in writing and language in later generations have unrecognizable characters, let alone this is ancient?

"Fourth Uncle, County Magistrate Zhang said that you have done your best to help them count their belongings this time, thank you for your hard work!"

Yang Huaming was a little surprised. He smiled and waved his hands repeatedly, but his face couldn't hide his complacency: "Huh? Lao Zhang also mentioned me? Hehe, it's not hard work, it's not hard work, it's better for those who are capable!"

"Well, yes, those who can do more work." Yang Ruoqing nodded.

"The 100 taels of silver were awarded to us by County Magistrate Zhang," she added.

"Hey, this old Zhang is a nice guy, and he is generous." Yang Huaming rubbed his palms, he knew he would have something to eat this time!

"Fourth Uncle, this is what I planned for the 100 taels of silver."

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Yang Huaming knew that the important point was coming, so he quickly sat up straight, and retracted the hand that was going to get the frost melon candy, and put it on his lap, straight and upright Waist looked at Yang Ruoqing seriously...waiting for her to pick up the knife and drop the meat to the house.

Yang Ruoqing took out the banknote worth [-] taels of silver and said to Yang Huaming: "This trip to Wanghai County, it's you, me, Tang Yazi, and my fifth aunt and the four of us."

"Brother Dao's criminal gang exploded, and all four of us participated in it, so the 100 taels of silver are divided into four parts..."

"Wait." Yang Huaming suddenly raised his hand to interrupt Yang Ruoqing's words.

"Qing'er, well, Fourth Uncle is not a stingy person, but there are some things that I have to ask clearly, and I have to make things right."

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, "Fourth Uncle, you can ask whatever you want."

Yang Huaming said: "Didn't the three of us participate in that matter? Your fifth aunt doesn't seem to be involved at all, right? I haven't even seen her!"

Seeing Yang Ruoqing opened his mouth, Yang Huaming realized that his question was a bit too straightforward, so he added two sentences: "Of course, if you really want to share her share, my father has no objection. Anyone who sees it will have a share. Besides, we are still a family!"

Yang Ruoqing put down the bank note in her hand, clasped her hands together on the table, looked directly at Yang Huaming, and said, "Fourth Uncle, you probably didn't hear what I said earlier, the four of us have had this incident. participate."

"What Aunt Wu did was to go to the county government office to find Magistrate Zhang. Otherwise, how do you think Magistrate Zhang and the others came here? Hearing the news, they came here?"

"Ah? It's your fifth aunt who went to the county government to move County Magistrate Zhang?" Yang Huaming was also surprised.

"Your fifth aunt usually dares to go to the county government to look for the county magistrate when she sees the master who is too afraid to speak in the village? You've grown up!"

Yang Ruoqing didn't have time to discuss with Yang Huaming whether Bao Suyun was progressing or not. She continued, "So, if four people participate, the four should share equally, which is fair and just."
