The moonless night passed as the stars moved, and the sun rose.
Li Zhixian brought someone to bring breakfast again: "I don't know if you are used to the sudden change of place, and you don't dare to make other things, just wontons."
All the students thanked him one after another and found that Li Zhixian also knew how to eat. He had worked hard all day and really didn't sleep well at night. It was too hot!
Xuancheng is farther south and is hotter than Nanjing. There is no mosquito coils, so living under a mosquito net makes it stuffy and hot.
I had no appetite when I woke up in the morning, but when I saw the wontons, I felt like I could eat them. The wontons come with soup.
Add refreshing cucumber pickles, salty garlic eggplant, and Laba garlic. After two bites, your appetite will be restored.
"No matter what situation you encounter, just remember one thing. Ningguo Mansion is on the side of Xiaqiu Village, not to mention those in Xuancheng County. For those who come to Xuancheng County today, we will accompany you to 'take office'."
After waiting for the students to finish their meal, Li Zhixian revealed the information to everyone when he took them to the government office to register.
The students felt the strong home advantage and registered happily one by one.
They are scholars who come from Nanjing to the local area. The local area must record it and call them when something happens.
After all the formalities were completed, horse-drawn carriages came and took the students away.
Li Zhixian, Chief Zheng, Guanxian Cheng, Wang Dianshi and a large group of government officials escorted him.
They are the most relaxed. There are 22 villages in Xuancheng County, which is called peace!
The people are busy making money and have no time to do anything. Those who are disobedient in the village have long been asked to obey.
We are currently looking for bamboo fungus, mushrooms, herbs, and bamboo rats. Yes, each village has prepared to raise bamboo rats. We will find some of them ourselves, and Xiaqiu Village will borrow the ones that are missing.
In addition, it is time to sharpen the knives, and it is time to harvest winter wheat, rapeseed, and ramie.
The cotton has been sown long ago, and other vegetables are being dried while being eaten, with the intention of selling them to the department store when it opens.
They also bought phosphate rock, bitter salt, and lime, and added water soaked in plant ashes to prepare for the situation in the fields.
Lizhi County sent the students to one village after another. Every time they arrived at a village, the villagers showed great enthusiasm.
At the end of noon, Li Zhixian and others came to Xihe Village. Feng Gui, the head of Xihe Village, received the report and led people to greet them.
"Have you given away the business from our brother's village? We are waiting for you! Don't worry, you guys are home.
In my village, there will be no problems with business in Xiaqiu Village. You can live with peace of mind. Tell us what you need.
Li Zhixian, Guanxian Cheng, Zheng Zheng and Wang Dianshi will eat first. Our village is all happy today. "
Feng Gui took the hands of the two students and spoke first, then invited Li Zhixian and others to dinner.
"Wang Xin, Zhao Fanju, you go to dinner with Feng Lizhang, he can make arrangements for you. Li Xin, Li Yan, let's go."
Li Zhixian ordered the two shopkeepers here and turned to leave. The other officials and government officials also had the same intention.
"No! It's hard to come here once, what's wrong with having a meal?" Feng Gui wanted to stop him and grabbed Li Zhixian's sleeve.
"Why does this magistrate want to eat in your village? The last place is Xiaqiu Village, what else? Of course it is not as comfortable as eating in Xiaqiu Village!"
Li Zhixian waved his sleeves and strode away without giving any face.
"Next time! Definitely next time!" Feng Gui shouted from behind.
After the people from the county got in the car and drove away, he turned to the two students and smiled: "I didn't want to keep him at all, it was just for fun."
Two students: "..."
…
"Get off the car, Li Xin, Li Yan, we have to get off the car. Have you seen the archway? You have to walk in. Unless you take the waterway, stop directly at the pier over there."
Li Zhixian and others arrived at Xiaqiu Village and were blocked by three archways. Everyone got out of the car and led the animals inside.
"You two are really home. You haven't been here before, right? I'll take you around tomorrow." Li Zhixian relaxed.
"The county magistrate is busy with official duties, why not..." Li Xin was afraid of delaying others' work.
"What? You want to drive us away? Let me tell you, you are just doing things here, and you have no right to prevent us from living here." Li Zhixian glared.
"Misunderstanding, magistrate, are you leaving tomorrow morning?" Li Xin quickly explained.
"Do I need to tell you if I can leave? If I don't leave, I have to stay for three days. It makes me so angry.
oops! Xiaoqi, prepare the meal quickly. Eat a bowl of wontons before going out in the morning and drink only water along the way.
Now I am so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back and my chest is almost in pieces. Can I stay in the village for three days? "
As Li Zhixian was talking, he saw someone trotting up to meet him in front of him. He quickly trotted over, held the other person's hand and spoke.
"Li Zhixian is joking, what can't be done? Doesn't Xiaqiu Village belong to Xuancheng County? Isn't it under the jurisdiction of Li Zhixian?
The county magistrate is willing to handle official affairs in Xiaqiu Village, but it’s not too late for Xiaqiu Village to welcome him!
The bedding in the house has been removed, washed, and taken out to dry, and things are placed according to your habits.
Most of the horses in the village were there, carrying news and official documents back and forth, four at a time.
Eat mutton skewers? I will cook two more dishes, eat in the cafeteria, and drink cold beer. "
Xiao Qi nodded to the others first, talked to Li Zhixian, and led them inside.
"You can eat anything. These are the two people who came to be the shopkeepers, Li Xin and Li Yan." Li Zhixian was not picky at all.
"I've seen it before, you two, there's no need to order the goods, the door of the department store is open! You can stroll around as much as you like in the village."
Xiaoqi and the two students who were looking after each other actually met each other in the library.
Moreover, the department store in the village was not locked at all, even if there were two people holding the key.
"Do you have their clothes?" Li Zhixian saw someone coming to unload the horses and take them away. He was about to take a bath when he thought of the two students.
"Yes, new clothes, depending on your figure, you can have many sets." Xiao Qi nodded.
"We brought clothes." Li Yan looked around and took his package to the front.
"Keep what you have and wear the ones from Xiaqiu Village. Let's go take a shower together and I'll get some clothes."
Li Zhixian said hello and went to the big bath here.
Other officials and government servants also ran to their rooms to look for clothes. Xiaoqi took two students to compare them, and after selecting them, they asked them to take them to the bathhouse. Underwear was provided.
Half an hour later, a group of people appeared in the cafeteria wiping their hair.
There are other people hired by Xiaqiu Village in the canteen. They are all young people. They learn skills, literacy and arithmetic while working here.
Xiaoqi sat at a table with four officials and two students, and grilled mutton skewers were served.
"Li Zhixian, everyone, you're welcome." Xiao Qi took a bunch first.
The four officials drank beer first. After taking a swig of beer, they all looked satisfied.
Li Xin and Li Yan also drank, burped and looked at the officials.
"What do you want me to do? Take it yourself! Can I feed you two?" Li Zhixian said and fucked with the meat skewers.
"Remember, you two, you don't have to think about other things in Xiaqiu Village. Seeing as we have public housing here, we used to stay in the village for many days."
Guanxian Cheng said as he walked over there, took a bunch of unbaked thousand-sheet rolls, and scooped up a plate of garlic sauce and brought it back.
Use chopsticks to roll off a thousand-sheet roll, dip it in the dipping sauce, and chew it in your mouth.
