When Shao Xi saw Zhao Qiaoyun, the other party also saw Shao Xi and Lao Wu, and suddenly a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He quickly took small steps to come to Shao Xi and Lao Wu, and bowed deeply to them.
"My little girl has met two benefactors."
Shiliu also followed behind and saluted Shao Xi and others. For Zhao Qiaoyun and Shiliu, Shao Xi and Lao Wu could be considered a blessing to them.
Zhao Qiaoyun fell into Han Song's hands and was humiliated by him for half a year. If Shao Xi and Lao Wu hadn't come to the rescue, we don't know what her final fate would have been.
Similarly, when Shiliu sought help for Zhao Qiaoyun, she unfortunately fell into the hands of Han Song and was tortured. Although she couldn't help but reveal the whereabouts of Shao Xi and others after the torture, no one would blame her.
When a little girl fell into the hands of someone like Han Song, it was the same for anyone. Fortunately, she was rescued in time, otherwise she would have lost her life.
When Shao Xi and Lao Wu decided to arrange Zhao Qiaoyun to be taken care of by Zhang Chong, they also deliberately wanted to bring them together. Now that they saw this master and servant appearing here, they expected that they had a pretty good life this year.
Shao Xi quickly returned the courtesy: "I have met Miss Zhao, maybe I should call her Mrs. Zhang now."
This sentence made Zhao Qiaoyun blush. Because of the arrangement of Shao Xi and Lao Wu, she and Zhang Chong are now married, and the two couples are happy and harmonious.
She has always been grateful, and today she unexpectedly reunited with her old friend, so she was naturally very happy.
"I never expected to see these two benefactors again in Wanxian County. It is really my daughter's luck. The kindness between the two of them will be unforgettable in my life. I will call my husband to come and pay homage to these two benefactors."
When Zhao Qiaoyun said this, Shao Xi was sure that Han Shaoguang, Zheng Yuanxiu and Zhang Chong must be in the Wanfu Restaurant at this time.
But he was a little confused, why did Zhao Qiaoyun appear here?
It was said that one of the three gentlemen was the county magistrate, one was the county magistrate, and the other was the head catcher of the government. They were drinking and having fun together and they would not let Zhao Qiaoyun come to accompany them.
So Shao Xi couldn't help but ask, "Is Zhang Chong in this restaurant? I wonder if you came here to look for him?"
Zhao Qiaoyun smiled sheepishly.
“He often goes out to drink with the county magistrate and the county magistrate, and every time he asks the two adults to pay the bill, which is really unsightly.
"Today, I came here specially to give him some wine money. No matter what, I can't let the two adults pay the bill anymore. How can there be any reason for the chief catcher in the government office to always take advantage of the county magistrate and the county magistrate?"
When Shao Xi heard this, there was actually such a thing?
I'm thinking that you, Zhang Chong, are in trouble now. It's okay to sit at the same table and drink with the county magistrate and the county magistrate. Why the hell are you asking your immediate superior to pay you for the drinks?
Have these three brats become kings now?
Although to Shao Xi, the three of them are all friends, but based on their status, the relationship between them as superiors and subordinates is still very clear.
It's okay for me and Han Shaoguang. After all, Xiao Changyi was already friends with Bai Jinqing and four others when he didn't appoint him as an official. If they were more casual, they could still be regarded as classmates.
But you, Zhang Chong, as the head catcher of Wanxian County, actually hang out with the county magistrate and county magistrate. It is obvious that you can no longer distinguish between superiors and subordinates!
You want to say that there are a few people who have a good relationship, and it's okay to drink together in private. But if your drinking got to your immediate boss, isn't it a bit too much?
It seems that Zhao Qiaoyun saw this matter and knew it well, so he took the action of giving Zhang Chong wine money today.
"There's no need to call him. Why don't we go in together? It just so happens that the county magistrate and county magistrate of Wan County are my classmates and friends in Daliang, Kyoto. Speaking of which, we are all acquaintances. We might as well take this opportunity to get together. Let’s get together and catch up on old times after not seeing each other for a year.”
Shao Xi said this seemingly casually, but Zhao Qiaoyun was shocked when he heard it. Although Shao Xi's identity was false, she and Zhang Chong did not know it.
In her eyes, Shao Xi is a fourth-rank official in the current dynasty. How lucky are they that they can meet such a person in their lives?
Therefore, she has always had a sense of awe in her heart. Compared with the fourth-rank official in the court, a county headhunter is like a firefly to a bright moon.
Zhang Chong is usually very carefree and may not feel that sensitive, but Zhao Qiaoyun is a well-informed and sensible person, and she is well aware of the gap between identities.
Previously, Zhang Chong had become brothers with the newly appointed county magistrate and the county magistrate, drinking and bragging together every day. She already felt that something was wrong, but at least they were still within the ten thousand counties, so it was still okay.
That's why I came to Wanfu Restaurant to give Zhang Chong money for drinks today. I thought that no matter how good the relationship is, we can't go too far.
After all, you, Zhang Chong, are just a catcher. No matter how harmonious you get along with these two adults, you still have to be somewhat measured.
Now that I know that those two adults are classmates and friends of Mr. Shao in front of me, their relationship is different now.
Those two adults and this Mr. Shao can call each other brothers. If you, Zhang Chong, call those two adults brothers again, wouldn't you be involved with this Mr. Shao?
Wouldn't this mess up the identity?
There is a difference between officialdom and martial arts. In martial arts, as long as you have ability and prestige, you can have an identity. But in officialdom, it is different. In addition to ability and prestige, you must also have the approval of the current emperor.
The official rank thing is there, even if it is only half a rank, it can crush people to death, not to mention that you are a little catcher who doesn't even have a rank, you are just a fast catcher in the county government.
If he and his benefactor were confused about their identity, would it be more than just disrespectful?
Zhang Chong may not have thought much about these things, but Zhao Qiaoyun did, and he seemed a little flustered for a moment.
He quickly apologized to Shao Xi and said, "Please forgive me, Mr. Shao. Zhang Chong is a rough man and doesn't know much about official status. Mr. Shao may be the biggest official he has ever seen in his life.
"He always thought that if he got along with the county magistrate and the county magistrate, he could treat each other as friends and brothers. Little did he know that these two adults were actually classmates and friends of Master Shao.
"In the future, I will definitely remind him more to remember his identity and not to act arrogantly again."
Shao Xi saw that Zhao Qiaoyun understood the truth and secretly felt lucky for Zhang Chong to marry such a virtuous and courteous wife.
In fact, to himself, Zhang Chong's actions were nothing, but you must know that not every official is as easy to talk to as himself.
Since Han Shaoguang and Zheng Yuanxiu failed to grasp the rules when they first entered the officialdom, and Zhang Chong was such a down-to-earth person, they naturally seemed to have no problem. However, if they encounter someone who is difficult to talk to in the future, this matter could be a big or small matter.
Shao Xi couldn't help but shook his head secretly. Zhang Chong would only be a head catcher in his life. He was really not suitable for contact with officialdom. It seemed that if there was a chance in the future, he would have to help him find another way out.
Because here, Han Shaoguang and Zheng Yuanxiu will leave Wanxian sooner or later, and by then there may not be anyone who can take care of Zhang Chong.
With Zhang Chong's temperament, not to mention the former fake county magistrate Han Song who disliked him, it is estimated that even Zhao Qiaoyun's father Zhao Tianrong would not like him if he became the county magistrate.
After all, although Zhang Chong is not stupid, his temperament is too straightforward. There is no problem with such a person's IQ, but his emotional intelligence is a flaw.
Although it was for this reason that he and Lao Wu asked him to help expose Han Song's identity and rescue Zhao Qiaoyun, it did not mean that this was an advantage.
But it's too early to think about this now. Now that I have arrived in Wan County, I haven't seen any of them. I'd better wait to talk about things like this later!
"We are all old acquaintances, and Miss Zhao doesn't have to be so outspoken. However, I don't think it is a long-term solution for Zhang Chong to be a catcher in the county government. If there is a chance in the future, I will find a way to help him find a job." Good way out.
"After all, he is no better than he was in the past. In addition to earning more money, people who have a family also need stability. I believe Miss Zhao thinks so too, right?"
At this time, Zhao Qiaoyun was feeling uneasy. She could understand the meaning of Shao Xi's words in two ways.
On the one hand, it means literally. Shao Xi said that he plans to find another way out for Zhang Chong in the future, but on the other hand, it may mean that Zhang Chong is not suitable for this bowl of rice anymore, and sooner or later he will not be able to succeed as a head hunter.
However, Zhao Qiaoyun would rather believe that Shao Xi meant it first. She always believed that Shao Xi was not a narrow-minded and picky person, and he should have seen the problems in Zhang Chong's temperament like herself.
But at this time, she couldn't express any of her thoughts. She just bowed slightly and nodded towards Shao Xi, indicating that she understood.
Shao Xi saw that Zhao Qiaoyun was very afraid of her identity. Although she and Lao Wu personally rescued her in the first place, it was this kindness that made her fear her even more.
"Let's not stand here talking anymore, let's go in together! I haven't seen Zhang Chong in a year, and I haven't seen my two friends in nearly a year. I came to Wanxian County specifically to visit you. Let’s get together today!”
With that said, Shao Xi made a gesture of invitation to Zhao Qiaoyun. Firstly, he asked Zhao Qiaoyun to go first out of etiquette, and secondly, he also asked Zhao Qiaoyun to lead the way for him.
In this way, Zhao Qiaoyun led Shao Xi, Lao Wu and others into Wanfu Restaurant, and rushed to a private room on the second floor in a familiar manner.
As soon as he walked up the stairs, Shao Xi heard the sound of laughter and guessing coming from the innermost private room. This was Han Shaoguang and Zheng Yuanxiu.
Shao Xixin said, you two county magistrates really have no image at all. You only know how to go to restaurants to eat and drink, guess the game and give orders. How can you look like officials?
This completely still maintains the same moral character as when he was at Bailu Academy.
Shao Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly. If he wanted these two guys to be his helpers in the future, it seemed like there was still a long way to go!
