suspected wife

The magistrate finished speaking and looked at Yue Zhongyao firmly.

The person in front of him was personally selected by him in order to balance the forces of all parties.He has only been promoted for a few months, and he is extremely satisfied with everything he has been ordered to do. He is young and capable.

The most important thing is that there is no background, and no one has been wooed.If you want to go up, you can only cling to him as a parent.

He is extremely comfortable with it.

And if he wanted to move up to the position of seventh-rank magistrate, there were not many people at the bottom who could use him, so he would never be able to do it on his own.

Just when he was secretly happy to accept a useful person.I didn't expect how long it took, and the person in front of him handed him his resignation letter.

Zheng Zhixian heard Yue Zhongyao bowing again: "Yes, my lord. This subordinate asked you to resign half a month ago. It was you who asked your subordinate to complete this task before resigning. This subordinate really There are reasons why you must resign. Besides, the subordinates don’t understand what it means to be loyal to the court and the people. The subordinates just want to spend some peaceful and smooth life with their wives and daughters.”

Yue Zhongyao organized his words a bit, and then said: "The little one was on the bloody battlefield, thinking about it all the time, if he can survive, he must guard his wife and daughter day and night, not daring to leave for a moment. This subordinate has no great ambitions. Whether he worked hard or desperately before, it was all for his wife and daughter to live a better life. Please also see that this subordinate has been dedicated to his duties for more than a year. I can grant my subordinate's request."

After Yue Zhongyao finished speaking, he bowed to the ground.

The county magistrate felt quite a headache after hearing this.

He was very distressed at this time.

He has the right to directly appoint and dismiss this headhunting position, it would be great if he didn't.You can also drag on.Now that people's feelings and reasons are placed in front of him, he can't find any reason to shirk.

The magistrate's mind changed sharply, and Fang said: "You want your wife and daughter to live a stable and stable life, and there is no conflict with your current official duties? I also know that they are in the countryside and you can't take care of them, but you can't take care of them. Wouldn’t it be fine to just live in the city? Wouldn’t it be great if you could help me and take care of them with peace of mind?”

Yue Zhongyao smiled wryly after hearing this.

If only it were that simple.

Don't say whether Jinniang agrees or not.For example, if his mother found out that he only brought Jinniang, mother and daughter to the city, and left her and her father in the countryside, what kind of trouble would there be?

And if the whole family is brought in, not to mention whether his salary can support a large family, Jinniang is also unwilling to live with his mother.

Yue Zhongyao's head was as big as a bucket.

In that dark night, he listened to Jin Niang sobbing alone in her dream.My heart ached so much that I made up my mind.

No matter what, he couldn't live without Jinniang, and he couldn't let his own flesh and blood call someone else his father.

Yue Zhongyao bowed again and said: "My lord, my subordinates really have unavoidable difficulties and have to do this. There are many talents under your lord, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a humble job. But a humble job really needs a humble job."

The prefect magistrate really couldn't understand the man in front of him.

You say he has no ambition?Not quite.He fought.Have fought and sought to improve.It is someone who wants to make some achievements.

But in front of him like this, it seems that the love between children is too long.

How many people came up from a class of handymen and climbed to the position of the head catcher, and the position of the Bapin County Captain is clearly in sight, but at this time they have to abandon everything, just to go home for the mother and child?

The magistrate shook his head and smiled wryly.

This is the most affectionate person.Why doesn't he have many such people in his hands?

Either they can't afford it, or they only have power in their eyes.

The county magistrate neither agreed nor criticized.He just waved to Yue Zhongyao, telling him to go back and think about it for a few more days.Talk about it in a few days.

Yue Zhongyao opened his mouth and waited to say more.Seeing that the magistrate had already closed his eyes with his hands on his forehead, he had no choice but to say goodbye.

Yue Zhongyao went back to his residence to tidy himself up, lay down on the bed and wanted to sleep, but he didn't expect the chaos in his mind, like ten thousand horses galloping on the battlefield.

Those bloody four years were a nightmare he dared not bring up again.

Originally, those recruited from the countryside like them did not have any experience and did not know how to do it. They would not be arranged on the front line before the war, but just do some chores.

Such as being in the stables and kitchens, or carrying grain and grass, and so on.

He worked successively in stables, kitchens, grain transportation department, warehouse...all of them.There is no place on the battlefield that can last long. People die at any time, and new people are replaced.

If you work here for a few months, or even a day or two, you may be sent to another place.

He changed several places in a row, and by chance, he was noticed by others for his strength and good archery skills, so he was taken away to the front of the battle.

I still remember the first person he killed, that person was as inexperienced as he was, and his eyes were still full of horror, he swung it so hard, and the blood of that person spurted out...

The man fell to the ground so straight, and was stepped on by the people pushing up from behind...

The man's blood splattered on his clothes, everywhere...

He couldn't close his eyes for days.As long as one lays down at night, the eyes of the dead man will appear in front of his eyes...

Later, he killed more and more people. His Shangguan was right, if you don't kill people, people will kill you.

There was more and more blood on his hands, and there was an indelible smell of blood on his body.It was so strong that he would vomit when he smelled it.

Gradually, more people were killed, and it became numb.It's not like before, after returning to the camp, I wash off the blood on my body first, but I take advantage of the rare gap, catch the time, and fall down to sleep.

Even in a smelly stable, in a dark ditch, or in a muddy field, as long as he listened to an order: "Rest in place!" he would make the most of the time to sleep, so as to replenish his strength, and he could fall asleep even standing up.

He just wants to live.

Come back alive to see the newly married wife who has been missing for less than half a year.

His heart and eyes are full, and he has only one thought: to survive, to survive.

When he was free, besides sleeping, he used a horizontal knife to carve hairpins for his lovely wife.

The wood and branches picked up at random are carefully carved with various patterns and colors in the hand, to pass the time of yearning, and forget the blood.

He practiced very well, and his skills were not worse than those of the artisans who specialize in making hairpins for a living.It's just that in that kind of place, where can anything be left behind?

It would be nice to come back with a life.

Jinniang, do you know that you are the belief that I survived, you have supported me for four years, are you going to leave me now?

Why don't you let me die on the battlefield...

Yue Zhongyao's eyes were hot, he turned his body sideways, and buried his face in the quilt...

Yue Zhongyao slept for two hours, got up in the afternoon, and went outside.

Always make a break.

There is always one party who is sorry, since ancient times, how can loyalty be both?

It's because he thought too simply.This year he has been photographed.

The small courtyard rented by Liu's mother and daughter was quiet, Yue Zhongyao knocked on the door for a long time, but no one came to answer the door.

Yue Zhongyao sat blankly on the threshold and waited for a stick of incense before he saw Mrs. Liu leisurely appearing at the other end of the alley carrying a few oiled paper bags.

"Zhong, Zhong Yao?"

"Aunt Liu."

Yue Zhongyao sat up from the threshold, patted the back of his buttocks, and stood up to meet him.

"Zhongyao is here? When did you come?" Liu's gaze towards Yue Zhongyao was somewhat dodge.

Yue Zhongyao was slightly surprised.But it didn't show up.

He took the package from Mrs. Liu, and waited for Mrs. Liu to open the door.

Liu Shi hesitated for a moment, then handed the package in his hand to Yue Zhongyao, took out the key from his pocket and opened the door.

The two entered the yard one after the other.

The smell of meat emanating from the oiled paper bag made Yue Zhongyao salivate, and his stomach became even more noisy.

This morning, I rushed back from the neighboring county on a fast horse, so I didn't even have time for breakfast.I didn't even bother to eat well for lunch when I came back, so I came here when I woke up.

Yue Zhongyao looked down at the oiled paper bags in his hand, the meaty aroma was overflowing from the oiled paper bags, and oily stars were still radiating from the oiled paper bags.

The oiled paper is not difficult to recognize, it is the mark of Fu Ji, a century-old shop.

Fu Ji is a century-old brand in Qingchuan City.The cooked food is famous in neighboring cities and counties.There are also semicolons in some large cities.

His family's meat and some appetizers are especially famous, and the braised hoof there is a must in the shop.How many people in Qingchuan City lined up and waited outside before the pot was cooked.

Every morning and evening, you can see long queues on the East Street, which has become a scene in Qingchuan City.

That braised hoof is two taels of silver.Generally, small families can't afford it.Small households in Erliang Silver City can eat for a month.

In order to save money for her son, Mrs. Liu wished that every penny could be broken into two pennies, and she was absolutely reluctant to go there and wait in line to buy one for two taels of silver.

Yue Zhongyao also carried one for them when he first came to the door, but it was only that one time, and it still made his heart hurt for a long time.Still borrow money everywhere.

Apart from hoofs, I'm afraid there are other meats from Fu Ji in this oil paper bag.

There is no five taels of silver in these bags, I'm afraid I won't be able to get it down.

Seeing Yue Zhongyao's gaze, Mrs. Liu took it with a guilty conscience, hurriedly carried it to the kitchen and put it away, and then let Yue Zhongyao into his son's room.

The Liu family didn't have a flower hall for guests, not even a main room.The only option is to let him sit in Liu Youcai's room.

"Why are you free today? Didn't you go to a neighboring county on business?" Mrs. Liu asked, pouring Yue Zhongyao a glass of water.

Yue Zhongyao took a sip, nodded and said, "Yes. I won't be back until noon."

Yue Zhongyao is not good at words.

Originally, when he came to Liu's house, he was the one who was listening, while Liu Shi was talking non-stop.Liu Shi also became quiet today.

The two sat opposite each other.I don't know what to say.

Liu raised her head and glanced at Yue Zhongyao, expressing pity in her heart.

This person in front of him is definitely the best candidate, he is affectionate and righteous.Even if her children are unfilial in the future, she will not worry about what will happen after her death.

But now...

Mrs. Liu sighed, looked up at Yue Zhongyao, the man in front of her was more mature and steady than she had seen a year ago, he was someone who could be trusted with confidence.But now...
