Chapter 475

Osmanthus fragrans responded, and then retreated with Chu Yannian.

"Brother, the speed of the ox cart is slow. You should drive the ox cart back to the village first. It's getting dark now. You must drive slowly and be careful. I will stay and discuss with the county magistrate later. After returning to the village I won't be with you for now."

Listening to Osmanthus fragrans' instructions, Chu Yannian nodded, and in turn told Osmanthus fragrans to be careful.

Seeing Chu Yannian leaving with the ox cart, Osmanthus finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that he has persuaded the magistrate, he has won half the battle.

As for the remaining half, it depends on how Mo Shi and Yu Shi are doing.

It has been three years since Meng Liang came to Antao Town as the county magistrate.

Those classmates who took office with him at the beginning have all become prefects at the last time.

As the only county magistrate among his classmates, it would be a lie to say that he has no pressure.

But this Antao town is not a rich town, let alone a place with important government agencies. It is simply too difficult to achieve any political achievements.

In addition, he married a shrew as his wife. If someone sends some gifts during the holidays or something, then he will accept it.But in normal times, even if you ask for a cabbage from the common people, your wife will clean herself up.

So he has no money, and his family is not rich, so it is impossible to climb up by bribery.

Over the past three years, he has gradually figured out that he can live a peaceful life in this county magistrate's position, and when he retires and returns home, how can he still have a small amount of savings.

At that time, it would be a good thing to take my family to find a place with better mountains and rivers, buy two pieces of land, build a row of houses, and slowly retire there.

But what he never expected was that in the third year, Antao Town had a major event, a pest plague, which almost wiped out all the crops in several villages.

For such a big event, Meng Liang couldn't sleep well all night.However, Shizi came to the door early the next morning and asked him what he could do to solve it.

Seeing the son of the world, Meng Liang felt rather complicated in his heart. This is an opportunity, an opportunity to be promoted, but it is also a trap. If one step is not careful, let alone an official, it may cost his life.

Fortunately, a village girl named Chu Osmanthus came out later, who somehow got the attention of the Shi Ziye and was sent to solve the problem of the victims' winter.

But Meng Liang didn't wait to breathe a sigh of relief when the village girl found him and said that there was a problem with the food and that he would be involved. Now he couldn't calm down again.

On the carriage, Meng Liang couldn't care less about being an adult or not, and hurriedly asked what happened to Osmanthus fragrans.

Osmanthus blocked her nose, pretended to cry, and said aggrievedly: "Master Meng, you must help Osmanthus this time!"

"What's going on, you tell me!" Meng Liang was also anxious, a village girl is a village girl, she panicked when something happened, she was really mud that couldn't support the wall.

"Chu Yanyi, the eldest son of my second uncle's family, do you know him?" Osmanthus doesn't care what Meng Liang thinks about herself, what she has to do now is to induce Meng Liang to go in the direction she wants to develop step by step.

Chu Yanyi?
Meng Liang subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but suddenly he was taken aback and asked, "Are you talking about that scholar from Qinhe Village?"

"Yes, that's him! Brother Yi is the only talented scholar in Qinhe Village, and the eldest son of my second uncle's family." Osmanthus fragrans nodded hurriedly, and then said, "It's him who wants to occupy all the food in our family, and then pays for it In his own name, give it to those disaster victims. My lord, if he is really allowed to do this, then he will have the good reputation of helping the world and saving people all by himself. Not only that, but he only wants to rely on this matter In exchange for a good reputation, and then prepare for next year's autumn. My lord, but this disaster relief should be the credit of my lord!"
