The magistrate's wife was startled when she heard this, "What? They know Zhenbeihou? That Bai Zeyuan who the emperor wants to give three points of face to?"

"Yes, it's absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes. He was the same as the rumors. He was wearing a black weft hat, and he had a token in his hand, the personal token of General Zhenbeihou." The yamen servant was very sure.

"What?" The yamen servant thought he heard it wrong.

"Mrs. Chen, show me quickly. Is my makeup okay today?" While speaking, the county magistrate's wife, who is usually not good at all, got out of the car and asked her personal mother to check her appearance.

"Very good lady!"

"Okay, let's walk over and show sincerity, Wang Da, hurry up and let the officers and soldiers stand in two rows, no matter what, we can't let her see that we came to find trouble before, and let Tong Xiaowu feel that , we are here to congratulate her, by the way, Mrs. Chen, what do you think we are going to do with the gift money?"

The sheriff's wife was a little embarrassed.

While speaking, the magistrate's wife took out the 1000 taels of silver note that Feng Dafu had stuffed into the envelope, and put it in a red envelope, "You can't reveal the money, and you have to let them know that we gave it to you. A red envelope is special." Some."

"Madam, you're a little nervous." Mrs. Chen has never seen her like this.

"Can I not be nervous? In the past, when I treated Tong Xiaowu like that, I'm afraid I offended people so much. No wonder Xiao Junyi spoke for her. The Xiao family is the most brilliant in the capital. The only son of the Xiao family speaks for her, for sure. There is a reason, why didn't I think of it! I'm really worried, she won't accept our red envelopes. "

"Look, isn't that the county magistrate's wife? She even spoke at the chrysanthemum appreciation meeting a few days ago. Why did she come here? This battle is really big!"

"Yeah, it looks like she's here to cheer, to see her smile, but she didn't even have a smiling face at the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Party..."

"Love a rich ghost!"

There was a lot of discussion around, Tong Xiaowu came out of the store, she saw the officers and soldiers making trouble just now, why did the wind direction change after such a short while.

"The wife of the magistrate is here, what can I do?" Tong Xiaowu didn't want to talk to this official wife at all.

"Congratulations, congratulations to shopkeeper Tong on the successful opening. We all live in the same county. I think you opened today, so let's take a look. Congratulations, congratulations..." Saying this, the wife of the sheriff handed over the red envelope in her hand.

Tong Xiaowu frowned slightly, what kind of trouble is she making?Why are you being so polite to yourself all of a sudden?Didn't you still want to get oil yesterday?Just now, he was dancing with a knife, but after a while, it changed?Maybe you're looking for something again?
Feng Dafu on the opposite side was dumbfounded when he saw this scene, what's going on?He twisted his fat body and walked over in a few steps, squeezed away the crowd, and looked inside: "Mrs. Sheriff, are you going to personally suppress the troublemakers?"

Looking at the red envelope in her hand, Feng Dafu had a bad feeling.

"Who are you? What nonsense are you talking about? Who caused trouble? What happened? Why did it become a trouble when they opened their business properly? Come, someone, drive him away..."

"Yes! Get out, who told you to talk nonsense, shopkeeper Tong abides by the law, why should you suppress it? You will be punished if you commit the crime of slander, do you want to taste that feeling?" Rushed in front of Feng Dafu, pushing him away.

Seeing that Tong Xiaowu didn't pick it up, the magistrate's wife handed it to the maid next to her. Just as Qingxiu was about to reach out, Tong Xiaowu stopped her.

"I don't dare to accept the gift money from the governor. Just tell me, what's the matter?" Tong Xiaowu has already thought about it. Even if she doesn't open the store today, she won't be in front of this kind of person. bow your head.

"Xiao Wu, don't worry too much. I really came here to accompany the ceremony. I heard about you in Rongshui County. It's really touching. If those cotton farmers didn't have you, I'm afraid they would starve to death. , I must respect you, a high-minded person like you, not only me, but I feel that everyone in the county should respect, let's go, let's talk inside..."

Speaking of which, Mrs. Pang actually held Tong Xiaowu's hand, and walked into the store, "Wow, this decoration is really nice, Yaoyao, and this thing is too novel, what is it?"

Saying that, the sheriff's wife touched the beautifully embroidered backpack, and asked kindly.

"Backpack……"

"Okay, it's so beautiful, it will definitely sell well." After the magistrate's wife finished speaking, she wanted to grab Tong Xiaowu's finger again, but she put it behind her back and avoided it.

The magistrate's wife was a little embarrassed, and grabbed Qingxiu who was beside Tong Xiaowu, "Put it away, it should be done, and no one can say anything. It's all about favors. Your shopkeeper has a good relationship, so it's normal to have a gift."

Qingxiu wanted to refuse, but the magistrate's wife firmly grabbed her hand, seeing that Tong Xiaowu didn't stop her, Qingxiu had no choice but to accept it.

Even though Tong Xiaowu doesn't like the smiling face, she doesn't know what kind of medicine she sells in her gourd?But since he's here, it's hard for her to kick him out.

"Madam of the Sheriff, please..."

"well……"

Tong Xiaowu let her go to the inner courtyard, and Mrs. Pang also wanted to go in and sit down, talk and win over her feelings.

Outside the gate of Yuebailibu Village, the leading yamen servant saw his wife entered the inner courtyard, so he let the officers and soldiers scatter to rest.
