The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 256 First day in office

When she returned to the backyard of the county yamen, Zhao Yunlan had just gone to bed and lay down when she heard the movement and got up again.

"What are you doing when you get up, be careful of catching a cold." Li Mingren hurriedly pulled Zhao Yunlan onto the bed.

Zhao Yunlan: "It's okay, I know my own body. What did you guys talk about?"

Li Mingren said while changing his clothes: "Shiyang County is poor, that Cao County Prime Minister should pay more attention. He also said that General Chengping is there, so there is no need to worry about fighting. It is still peaceful now."

Zhao Yunlan: "As long as there is no war, other matters can be easily resolved."

"Well, I'm going to wash my feet."

Zhao Yunlan gave an 'hmm', turned over and closed her eyes.When Li Mingren came back after washing his feet, Zhao Yunlan had already fallen asleep.

The next day, Li Mingren got up early, seeing that Zhao Yunlan was still asleep, he couldn't bear to wake her up, so he took the official uniform and went outside to change into it.He Hua cooked porridge and steamed steamed buns in the morning, and Li Mingren went to the county government hall after a simple breakfast.

"Everyone came so early! Have you all eaten yet?" Li Mingren looked at the people standing in a row, feeling overwhelmed.

Cao Yingfa: "Be more sympathetic, we all came after breakfast. Everyone has arrived, please give me some advice."

Li Mingren nodded, and looked at Chen Yiqing with a straight body: "Master Chen, come and count the number of people, and those whose names are called should say 'here', and I will also get to know everyone."

"Yes, my lord." Chen Yiqing opened the roster and began to roll the names one by one. Only after this roll call did he feel that there were many people in the yamen. After counting for half an hour, Chen Yiqing's mouth was parched.

Li Mingren didn't show it on the face, thinking in his heart: It makes sense that this yamen is poor.

"Master Chen, thank you for your hard work, drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat." Li Mingren said compassionately.

Chen Yiqing still couldn't react to being cared by his immediate superior. He had to shout his name at the top of his voice just now. Some people stood behind, and the people below whispered a few words from time to time, so they couldn't hear them at all.

Ye Sheng followed and brought tea for Mr. Chen, and Chen Yiqing drank a couple of sips before he felt his throat feel much better.

Li Mingren was annoyed by the buzzing noise, but he tried his best to restrain himself.

"Cao Xiancheng, take the lead, and everyone will patrol with me." Li Mingren just wanted to get out quickly, but his words were very calm.

Cao Xiancheng made a gesture of invitation, with a respectful expression on his face: "My lord, please first." After Li Mingren stepped out, he followed to lead Li Mingren.

A group of people began to inspect the county government. Li Mingren thought that it would be less noisy when he came out, but he didn't expect that everyone would be more relaxed after he came out.

"It seems that we need to rectify it." Li Mingren muttered in a low voice.

Cao Yingfa: "My lord, what did you say?"

"I said that these broken places should be repaired."

Cao Yingfa: "Yes, my lord will let them fix it later."

Before Li Mingren could speak, Chen Yiqing said: "My lord, there is not much money in the account of the county government now, and it will be the day when the monthly salary will be paid soon, and I will prepare some money in winter."

Li Mingren looked at this group of people, thinking about how much money he had to pay.

"Let's talk about this later, let's go forward."

Cao Yingfa: "If you go further, you will be in prison. I will ask Xie Dianshi to lead the way for you."

Li Mingren nodded, Cao Yingfa glanced behind, and Xie Dianshi came forward.

"The little Xie Changwang will lead the way for the adults."

Li Mingren nodded, and Xie Changwang led the way. The light in the prison was not good, and it was a bit dim during the day.The guards lit the oil lamps on both sides to ensure that Li Mingren could see clearly.

The prisoners all sat blankly on the floor and on the bed, and no one dared to make a fuss.Before Li Mingren came in, he was still wondering if someone would yell that he was wronged. This is how foolish Mr. Qin thinks, Li Mingren shook his head lightly.

Cao Yingfa saw it, and thought that the new magistrate was dissatisfied with the prison, so he quickly asked, "My lord, is there something wrong?"

Li Mingren: "Huh? Oh, no. Let's go out!" The county magistrate is quite careful in his observations, and it seems that he should pay more attention to his demeanor in the future.

After walking around, there is almost everything that needs to be seen. The county office is a little broken, but there is nothing unusual about the rest.After everyone returned to the county government lobby, Chen Yiqing and the county magistrate came up with a stack of ledgers.

"My lord, these are the account books of the bank, grain depot, and material depot. The officials have sorted them out. Shall we check them now?" Chen Yiqing asked.

Li Mingren looked at the sky, it should be lunch time, and his stomach growled when he thought about it.

"Let's eat first, and then check after eating."

Cao Yingfa: "Yes."

Li Mingren saw that everyone didn't want to leave, nor did they intend to eat, so he could only go back to the backyard of the county office.On the way back, he asked Ye Sheng: "Did anything happen last night?"

Ye Sheng: "Master, nothing happened. It's just..."

Li Mingren: "Say anything."

Ye Sheng: "The county government doesn't have the habit of eating at noon."

"Ah, this~ I'm back, don't care, I'll eat first and then talk about it." Li Mingren thought that he would not be able to go to work if he was hungry, and he had to check the accounts in the afternoon, and there were still many things to do!
"Are you done?" Zhao Yunlan saw Li Mingren come back.

Li Mingren shook his head: "No, I have to check the accounts in the afternoon, so I'll come back for dinner first."

Zhao Yunlan: "Let's serve dinner. Does the county government care about lunch?"

Li Mingren chuckled: "It's not just about lunch, they don't eat lunch at all, they have two meals a day."

Zhao Yunlan: "That's right. Shiyang County is like this. It's really not good for parents and officials to eat three meals a day with big fish and meat. Don't come back for dinner tomorrow. Take some cakes with you and eat a piece secretly when you are hungry. To avoid Leave something to others to say."

Li Mingren: "Huh? I didn't expect to be able to make myself rich when I became an official, but I couldn't solve the problem of food and clothing."

Zhao Yunlan rolled her eyes, "You are a parent officer, there are so many 'children' waiting to be fed!" Knowing that Li Mingren was joking, even if he didn't say it, Li Mingren would do that tomorrow, but if It looks like a mouth is owed.

At this time, Chen Yiqing and Cao Yingfa looked at each other in the hall of the county government.

Chen Yiqing really couldn't bear the noise of the whole room, so he said: "Everyone go back and do your own business first, cheer up these few days, don't leave any excuses for Mr. Li."

Even though everyone left one after another, only Cao Yingfa, Chen Yiqing and Xie Changwang were left behind.

Seeing that everyone had almost left, Cao Ying smiled and said, "Master Chen is a principle of respect and loyalty."

Chen Yiqing: "I just do what I should do."

Cao Yingfa: "Hehe, we are also doing what we should do." After finishing speaking, he winked and said: "Hey, didn't you say that the new county magistrate came from a farming family? His family shouldn't be rich, so why did he imitate that nobleman? Dahu’s three meals a day!”

Xie Changwang didn't want to make trouble with this, so he saluted: "The younger one will go back to work first, the two adults chat slowly." After saying that, he ran away.

Chen Yiqing said: "I'm leaving too. If Cao Xiancheng is hungry, he can go back to eat. After all, Cao's house is not far away."

"You~" Cao Yingfa flicked his sleeves, blowing his beard angrily.

Chen Yiqing said this to insinuate that Cao Yingfa's family came from a wrong source of money to buy the mansion, but there was never enough evidence, so he didn't point it out.Otherwise, with that little salary and the original family background of the Cao family, can they afford the big house next to the county government?
