Qiao Yan is a fan of officials, so she is familiar with the things that happen in the court. The second place in the fourth rank is wrong!
"How can the second-ranked person be ranked fourth?"
"It doesn't matter what grade he is, is Ting Yu born?"
"not yet····"
"Hurry up and make one for you too."
"No, no, I still want to practice and don't want to take care of children..."
"Then just practice."
Review and review the Double Cultivation Technique. I haven’t practiced it for so long that I almost forgot about it.
He Tingyu was indeed about to give birth, so it was just right to come back at this time.
However, he was a celebrity in Qingshi County after all, and the news of his return spread quickly. People who followed his movements quickly got the news, and the front of his house suddenly became lively.
The most enthusiastic person is to ask how he is doing. If he is doing well, he will be able to get ahead by asking for help.
If you don't get along well, whether it's a joke or comfort, you have to know what's going on.
Therefore, the first people to come were people from the martial arts field, especially those who could fly with swords. Naturally, they had the fastest reaction speed. They kept flying swords and landed in front of his house. In the end, they were all people he knew and started to fight happily. Say hello.
These people also have seniority. Qingshi County is so big, they are basically people from a few cultivating families. Cultivation families are the easiest to distinguish between seniorities. People like Zhou Xiaozhou, who is considered to have no seniority, can get along with everyone as equals. However, it is different in their respective families. When someone taller appears, they have to step back.
No one without any identity could reach Zhou Xiaozhou's house. Several old men and women from the Xiuxian family in Qingshi County rushed there in person, while the younger ones had to go aside.
"It seems like there was a bet on how big an official this guy could be. Whoever loses shouldn't default on his debt."
"Old man He, isn't your granddaughter about to give birth? What a happy event!
Since Mr. Zhou hasn’t come back, I can’t even remember this matter. You will at least have to set up a table at the Yang Family Wine..."
"Why should I, a poor old man, serve wine?
The grandson has become an official, so he has to arrange double happiness..."
"Why are you standing at the door? Let's go in and have a cup of tea..."
"I have to ask the Zhou family boy if he still wants the elixir..."
Noisily, these people pushed open the door and went to sit down in the living room, but no one paid attention to them.
"Where are the people?"
"This...it seems like a little separation is better than a wedding..."
"You, an old man, still understand this?"
"Why doesn't the old man understand?"
These people were not polite and made tea by themselves.
On the other hand, He Tingyu came over with a big belly to take a look, and greeted the guests with a smile.
"Grandpa, Grandpa Yang, Grandpa Lan, Grandma Hong..."
Old Man He immediately said: "I'm about to give birth, are you embarrassed to come and visit me empty-handed?"
Hurry up and give gifts..."
"No, if you ask a poor person to give a gift to a rich person, won't it cause thunder and lightning?"
In this circle, those who don't rob their families and homes must be poor. Making a little money is not enough for cultivation, and they have to take care of the family's descendants.
Especially in the golden elixir period, one by one...
No matter how poor you are, you can still give something.
Then came the second wave of guests.
The new county magistrate.
The former owner actually invited this person over and came to show off his authority in person... to take a look.
Because of his stance, the former county magistrate thought he was a die-hard from the previous government, so he would naturally be dismissed from his post and disappeared.
The new county magistrate has only been in office for a few months, and he is relatively young, probably in his thirties. I don’t know what path he took to get the position. After taking office, he was very high-spirited and wanted to show off his talents. Because he was young and energetic, he acted rather domineeringly and was far less tactful than when he took office.
He offended all the local gentry and noble families in Qingshi County, and has never been able to integrate into the local circle.
As a result, he almost had a smooth game.
Being an official in a different place is also a skill. If you cannot integrate into the local forces, you will be ignored.
If you integrate into the local forces, you will be easily coerced.
Whether they can stand firm and make a difference is also a test of officials' abilities.
I can't even stand on my feet, and it's just extravagant to hope to make a difference. Government orders can't get out of the yamen at all, and no one pays attention to them.
Now this person is in such an embarrassing period and seems to have nothing to do.
Nothing really happened at all.
If something happened, the local leader would settle it, and even the person who complained could not be found in front of him.
I really wanted to show off my talents and ambitions, but in the end, I was hit by the air and didn't even have a place to draw on.
He was in a hurry, so this relative came to him and brought him something. He thought it was a good starting point, so he immediately brought a group of government servants to his door without saying a word.
These government officials were all locals. When they saw it was Zhou Xiaozhou's house, they didn't want to go in.
He is the eldest brother of the world, and he is not someone they can mess with when he is married to so many people in the world. He doesn't dare to speak loudly, let alone shouting, and stays outside the door.
So, only a newly transferred head catcher followed in, plus the former owner, three more.
Because there were guests, the door was open, so they walked in directly, turned around the screen wall, and saw many people sitting in the living room.
"Who is the owner of this house?
The county magistrate is here, come out to greet him. "
Seeing these people sitting motionless, the head catcher was very disrespectful and scolded them loudly.
He was new to Qingshi County and didn't know these people.
The former owner was just a businessman who had fled again before, and had no contact with people in the circle of immortal cultivators. He then shouted: "This is my residence. You are not welcome. Please leave quickly."
The county magistrate touched his official uniform and motioned for everyone to take a closer look. It was so rude!
He Tingyu stood up quickly, but Old Man He waved his hand to stop him: "Ignore it."
Old Mrs. Hong said: "Have you found a stable wife? You must find the best stable wife. Giving birth to a child is a big deal and cannot be careless."
He Tingyu said hurriedly: "We've found it, please pay more attention to Grandma Hong..."
"By the way, does your husband take concubines?"
He Tingyu subconsciously glanced at her face covered with old tree bark.
"It's not me, it's not me..."
Mrs. Hong is so anxious, why do she think so!
"We have a young and beautiful girl at home, let's get closer..."
The county magistrate came, but he was so ignored and talked nonsense. The head catcher couldn't help but get angry and scolded him again: "You are bold and unruly, and you don't know what is right. I suspect that you are the relics of the previous dynasty, so I want you all to do it." Take him back and torture him severely."
"What's the fuss about?"
Zhou Xiaozhou ran out while getting dressed, feeling very unhappy.
Very busy.
The former owner pointed his hand and said, "That's my nephew."
The arrester's face darkened: "The county magistrate has arrived and is so disrespectful. The crime is not small. The owner of this household has no choice but to arrest him."
As soon as he waved his hand, he realized that no yamen servant followed him.
When Zhou Xiaozhou saw this posture, he realized that the county magistrate really came to the door for such a trivial matter. He must not be a good bird. He became furious and pointed at the door: "Get out."
