Chapter 163 The money can make a ghost run the mill

Su Wan began to eat under the baptism of everyone's eyes, and cast a slightly reproachful glance at Chen Fusheng involuntarily.

"What's the matter, Wanwan, what are you staring at me for?" Chen Fusheng didn't know what to do, and thought he couldn't do well, so he asked softly, a little embarrassed.

It doesn't matter if he asked this question, everyone present knew that Su Wan glared at him, so they became more certain about their guess and laughed even more happily.

Su Wan wished she could bury her face in the porridge bowl, now she would not be able to wash herself off even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

He is really not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs.

She stomped on Chen Fusheng's foot under the table, and cursed in a low voice: "Are you a pig?"

"I, I..." Chen Fusheng panicked all of a sudden, Wan Wan got angry, he must have done something wrong, but damn he didn't know where he was wrong at all.

"Haha..." Mrs. Li and the others laughed even harder, and even Su Laifu and Su Chengcai showed bewildered smiles on their faces.

Su Wan couldn't sit any longer, so she stood up and said, "I'm full, I'll wait for you outside, hurry up, or I won't be able to make it back today."

"Hey, Wanwan, you haven't finished this bowl of porridge yet, why are you full? We won't laugh at you anymore, let's eat quickly, there are still things to do." Mrs. Li quickly reached out her hand to hold Su who was about to go out. Wan, and pushed her back to the table.

Li Shi also felt that she was a bit too much. After all, Su Wan was young and just married, so she must have a thin skin. She was too happy, so she couldn't help teasing her.

Thinking of the business to be done in a while, she stopped joking and hurriedly coaxed the children to eat.

Su Wan wasn't that narrow-minded, she naturally knew what was the most important thing, and she didn't want to be hungry on the road, so she didn't say anything, and started to eat quickly.

Chen Fusheng was the saddest one. He was in a state of ups and downs throughout the meal, all he could think about was that Wanwan was angry with him, what did he do wrong?How will he coax her for a while?

After finally finishing their meal, Su Wan asked Chen Fusheng to go to Wang An's house to help set up the ox cart. She and Mrs. Li waited at the gate with the children.

Originally, they didn't want to take Su Qian and Su Zhe with them, but when they saw that Su Man and the others were going, they also clamored that they had to go. In the end, they had no choice but to take them all.

Chen Fusheng and Wang An drove the ox cart, and everyone, big and small, got into the cart, which was almost full. Because Su Wan gave enough money, Wang An didn't wait to pull other villagers, and went directly to the town. up.

The children sat on the bullock cart and chattered non-stop all the way. They were so excited that Mrs. Li would also say a few words to Su Wan from time to time.

However, from the beginning to the end, Su Wan didn't know whether she was shy or afraid that Mrs. Li would make fun of her and Chen Fusheng again, and she didn't even look at Chen Fusheng, making Chen Fusheng even more depressed.

When they arrived in the town, Su Wan asked Chen Fusheng to hire a carriage with money, and went directly to the county. Because the carriage was relatively small, it was not suitable for Chen Fusheng to squeeze in with the children, so she sat on the shaft of the carriage with the driver.

In this way, he would have no chance to talk to Su Wan in the carriage, so he was entangled and worried all the way to the county.

Su Wan went to the gate of the county government office to ask the guard at the door to explain her purpose. The young man looked Su Wan up and down, and said impatiently: "If you have any grievances, go and beat the drums to express your grievances, and you will naturally see my family." Master, do you think the magistrate has nothing to do every day? Everyone can see each other in private?"

Su Wan smiled and said: "This little brother is joking, I have no grievances at all, how can I just beat the grievance drum casually, isn't this causing trouble for the magistrate? It is true that the magistrate promised me before that if something happens You can come to him as much as you want, or even if you lend me some courage, I won’t dare to come, will you?”

"Everyone says this, how do I know if it's true or not? What do you think this is? It's an important place in the yamen, where people are not allowed to make noise. You should leave quickly." The boy rolled his eyes and said.

"Whether it's true or not, you'll know if you report it to the county magistrate. I'm from Hexi Village, Shanshui Town. My surname is Su." Su Wan smiled and announced her family name.

"I don't care where you come from, why are you so ungrateful? It's lunch time, how can I bother you?" The boy glared at Su Wan and said impatiently.

Su Wan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, took out an ingot of about one or two taels of silver from her pocket, stuffed it into the boy's hand, and said with a smile: "Brother, please take a trip, I'll treat you to a cup of tea. "

The young man's complexion improved a bit, he put the silver into his arms with a flick of his wrist, said "wait", then turned and went inside.

Su Wan thought to herself, money really can turn ghosts around, no matter what era, money is a good thing.

"Wanwan, it's costing you again." Li, who had been waiting behind, stepped forward and took Su Wan's hand, smiling embarrassedly.

"Third Aunt, you don't need to be polite, as long as Third Uncle can go back with us to celebrate the New Year, this little money is nothing." Su Wan shook her head indifferently and said.

"En." Li was grateful, nodded, and didn't say anything, just stood there looking forward to it.

After about a cup of tea, the young man came out of the room just now, with an obviously respectful attitude, he cupped his hands at Su Wan and said with a smile, "Miss Su, my master invites you in."

"Thank you, little brother." Su Wan nodded at him, and was about to walk in with Mrs. Li and the children.

The young man stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a embarrassed face: "Miss Su, my master is eating, and he said he only saw you alone. Isn't it inappropriate for so many of you to go in?"

Su Wan thought it was right, so she asked Chen Fusheng to wait outside with Mrs. Li and the children, and she followed the young man into the backyard of the county office.

The backyard of the county government office is not too big, but it is exquisite, with rockery, ponds, gazebos and corridors.

Su Wan followed the young man for about a stick of incense, and then stopped outside a room. The young man rushed inside to announce: "Master, Miss Su is here."

"Please come in." A slightly old voice came from the room.

"Miss Su, please." The boy opened the door and invited Su Wan in.

Su Wan nodded to the boy, and stepped into the room.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw that the county magistrate had just finished his meal and was wiping his mouth with a handkerchief. Next to him were two little maids who were cleaning up the dishes on the table.

"Minister Su Wan, I have met the county magistrate." Su Wan walked over and bowed to him.

"Oh Miss Su, hurry up and excuse me." The county magistrate stood up from his chair and said with a smile, "Just now the boy said that it was Miss Su from Hexi Village who wanted to see me, but I still didn't believe it. I never thought it was really you."

"It's really a sin to come here and disturb your lord's meal." Su Wan lowered her head and said softly.

"Hey, it's nothing. Since the last time you came to complain, I think you're an unusual girl. I'm glad you can come before it's too late. Sit down quickly." The magistrate smiled and offered to sit down.

"Thank you, sir." Su Wan thanked her and sat on a small stool next to her.

The county magistrate made someone serve tea, and then asked with a smile, "What's the matter this time?"
