During this period, only Wen Shi and Liang Jiujiu entered the room. As men and women grow older, the differences between men and women become more and more obvious. This is inevitable.
Liang Jiujiu rejoiced, "Fortunately, I hid in Beishan County. If I were still studying with you in the East Palace, my flaws would be exposed sooner or later. Fortunately, you have been exercising all year round, so you didn't feel much discomfort during this period. Remember not to catch a cold in the future, especially here." Don’t touch cold water for a few days, otherwise in the future..."
Liang Jiujiu couldn't say anything else.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to have children in the future, but Meng Changqing was in such a condition that it was impossible to get married, so how could she reach the stage of having children again.
"Let's talk about the future in the future." Meng Changqing rested for five days in a row. There was a lot of things in the yamen that she had to deal with.
Although there are few things for people in Beishan County, Meng Changqing has a lot of routine documents to write, and her yamen is not full of people, so she has to write and submit everything.
Fortunately, she doesn't mind the trouble. She can write hundreds of words of nonsense just by picking up a pen, so she is very comfortable in dealing with these official documents.
She had been busy for most of the day, and had basically completed all kinds of official documents. Light snow started to fall outside again.
In the past few days, snow has been falling intermittently. Seeing that the snow on the ground is getting thicker and thicker, Zhang Yuan has added a lot of people to his men. They not only patrol at night, but also clean the streets and guard against people on the dangerous mountains. In just a few days, I have a lot of frostbite on my hands, feet and face.
He took off his shoes and warmed himself by the charcoal pot when he saw Yang Zheng passing by his duty station. Every time he saw Yang Zheng after winter, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but regret. If he had continued to be the chief bookkeeper, he wouldn't have to suffer what he is doing today. tired.
Once the frostbite area warms up, it becomes even more uncomfortable, and the itching is more unbearable than the pain. When he was about to scratch his feet, Yang Zheng, who had been walking past, suddenly turned back and walked in.
"Brother Zhang." Yang Zheng saw the frostbite on his hands and feet. "It's not easy to go out on patrol today. It's hard for you. Oh, don't scratch it. It won't be easy to heal if you scratch it. Why don't you go to Mr. Meng's place?" How many boxes of frostbite cream can you get? All the brothers who follow you will also use it."
"Master Meng, isn't he sick?" Zhang Yuan resisted the urge to scratch and only put his feet on both sides of the charcoal basin.
"Okay, I went to the study just now. Didn't Brother Zhang see you?"
"I didn't pay attention." When he heard that Meng Changqing came to the front office, Zhang Yuan took his feet back and rubbed them, then put on slightly wet socks, "Mr. Meng has always been in good health, why did he suddenly fall ill this time?"
"No one will get sick from eating whole grains." Yang Zheng said, "I guess you caught a cold. Anyway, it's better now, so we can rest assured. Yes, your shoes and socks are wet and it's inconvenient. I'll go find Mr. Meng and ask for frostbite cream." matter."
"No, no, no." Zhang Yuan held the person who was about to leave, "I haven't seen you for a few days, I should go see you."
He quickly put on his shoes and said, "I'll go there by myself."
"Okay." Seeing him like this, Yang Zheng knew that he might have something to say to Meng Changqing, "My lord, you will be busy in the study for a while, so you might as well change into a pair of dry shoes and socks to save on covering up."
"No need." Zhang Yuan didn't care, "It's not wet. It will dry after a while."
In this case, Yang Zheng stopped persuading him.
Zhang Yuan quickly walked to the door of the study. After winter, a thick curtain was hung outside Meng Changqing's study.
This curtain not only blocked the wind, but also blocked the sound. He shouted twice outside before someone opened the curtain to check, "Colonel Zhang, is something okay?" The person who poked his head out was Bafang.
"I haven't seen Master Meng for a few days. I heard that your health has recovered, so I came to say hello."
Bafang opened the door curtain to let him in, and at the same time said with an apologetic smile: "I dare not, you are much older than my young master, and the young master has always regarded Captain Zhang as his uncle."
"In official circles, it only depends on the size of the official rank."
"In terms of official rank, you are above my young master." Bafang led the way and spoke, and then opened a door curtain, "Master, Colonel Zhang is here to see you."
"Please sit down quickly." Meng Changqing put down his pen and rubbed his eyebrows, "Bafang, make a cup of ginger tea."
"Hey." Bafang retreated to prepare tea.
"Just came back from inspection?" Meng Changqing asked.
"Yes, are you feeling better, sir?" Zhang Yuan asked with concern as he sat down.
Meng Changqing sniffed pretentiously, "It's almost done, otherwise I wouldn't have the energy to sit here." From the moment he came in, Meng Changqing noticed the frostbite on his hands, "Beishan County has less land and more people. You have many places to inspect. Thank you for your hard work. I have been ill these past few days, and I have to ask you to share my workload and make you work harder."
"What did you say, sir?" Zhang Yuan said, "This is what we should do."
At this time, Bafang came in with ginger tea and placed it in front of Zhang Yuan, "Captain Zhang, please have some tea."
"Bafang." Meng Changqing handed him the note he had just written, "You ask Captain Zhang to open the warehouse and take out a few bags of medicinal materials for frostbite ointment."
Zhang Yuan looked at the back of his hand and smiled, "It doesn't matter if I have thick skin and thick flesh. Besides, this thing doesn't grow long in winter."
"Chilblain is an injury. Since there is medicine, it is natural to use medicine to make it heal as soon as possible." Meng Changqing said to Bafang, "By the way, take out some furs and go to the county to find two people who are good at needlework and invite them. Sew some gloves and leather socks.”
"Hey." Bafang ran out with the note.
Zhang Yuan: "It's causing trouble for you, sir."
"What did the captain say? This is what I should do, that is, I have been sick these days, otherwise these things should have been in your hands long ago."
Zhang Yuan looked at Meng Changqing, and just when Meng Changqing thought he was going to say something, he lowered his head again.
"We have known each other for a long time. If you have anything to say, just say it." Meng Changqing said.
"Yeah, it's winter again in a blink of an eye. I still remember the first time I saw you. The snow outside was also like it is now. The deepest part can reach the calf." Zhang Yuan said with emotion: "Time flies so fast, for us people , it can be regarded as seeing how Beishan County came from nothing."
Meng Changqing: "Among them, there is no shortage of Zhang Xiaowei's contribution."
"Don't dare."
Meng Changqing understands Zhang Yuan's personality. This person is very interested in interests and has little emotion. There is definitely something wrong with what he said now.
"After not seeing each other for a few days, the captain has become sentimental."
"I have been in the military camp before. Although I have been away for many years, I have never seen more than one camp. Every day I train to prepare for war." Zhang Yuan said, "It was only after I followed the adults that I gradually gained more experience."
"What can you expect from an official like me, who is as big as a sesame seed? Lieutenant Zhang, stop teasing me."
Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Experience, no matter how high or low, is not only in the capital or among the nobles and officials, but also among the common people, there are many interesting things that can make people wake up."
"It seems that Colonel Zhang has seen a lot of interesting things in the past few days since I was ill." Meng Changqing put down his brush and simply closed the official documents in front of him, "Can you tell me?"
"At this moment, I really don't know which one is better to start with." Zhang Xiaowei thought carefully and picked someone Meng Changqing might be interested in saying, "Shu Er came to the county government to fight against Li Li. Flower, do you still remember?"
