Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 521: 521: Meet at the same door [ask for a monthly ticket]

  Chapter 521 Chapter 521: Meet in the same family【Seeking a monthly ticket】

  The former sheriff was flatly transferred to the border.

   This incident once caused panic among the common people in Heyin County.

  Compared to Shen Tang, the "abnormal" sheriff, the common people know too well what a "normal" sheriff looks like.

  The previous county guards, if they were alone, would probably be harmed; if they chose to collude with local snakes and flatter them, they would show their teeth and squeeze out the last drop of oil and water from the already skinny commoners.

   Their days are hard.

   It was hard to live a life like a human being with Shen Jun for two years... who knew that Shen Tang would be demoted! Really a bolt from the blue!

  Many common people wiped away their tears in secret, wanting to take care of their belongings and salute and escape here, but they were afraid that it would be more difficult to escape.

  In the end, we can only hope that the successor is an individual!

  Official officials also know what the common people worry about.

   In fact, they are also worried.

Worried that the newcomer Shangfeng is not as easy to get along with as Shen Jun, worried that the other party will take the new official's position as soon as he arrives, and overthrow the foundation that Shen Tang built before to declare his sovereignty, worried... But fortunately, the successor is Xu Jie, who was personally selected by Shen Jun .

  Although this person's ancestors started as merchants, he doesn't have a bit of acrimony and caressing philistinism in him. Tell them what was before and what will be in the future without worrying.

   Not long after, the common people also discovered that the new sheriff did not bring the disaster they imagined, and their lives were still going smoothly.

but-

   There are also many inconveniences.

For example, the "Fugu Department Store" they often love to go to, the variety of sales in the grocery store is not as diverse as before; for example, the various notes that were once very convenient have been canceled since then due to the liquidation before Shen Jun left, and the county government has not launched them. Similar to the meaning of substitutes; for example, without the help of warriors in their spare time, the pressure on farming has increased sharply. Fortunately, it is not difficult for the county government to rent farm tools...

  On the whole, more than the above and more than the below. Life hasn't gotten better, but it hasn't become as bad as imagined. It's just that I still recall the past occasionally—in those two years, when I opened my eyes every day, my life improved visibly.

  Day-to-day life is also full of motivation.

   It's just that they don't know that their new county sheriff has also encountered a difficult situation, and his face has not been good for several days.

   On this day, Xu Jie handled government affairs as usual.

  Just as I was about to put down my pen to take a rest, I heard someone pass me on.

  Xu Jie frowned when he heard this, and his tone was somewhat displeased: "Did the person who came tell you who it is from?"

  Unexpectedly, the servant shook his head and said, "I didn't say which one, she just said that she was an old friend from the same class, and she came to bother you..."

  Xu Jie bowed his head in thought: "A classmate?"

  For a while, I can't think of who will come at this time.

   Then he got up and adjusted his appearance.

   "You take him to the reception hall, and he will come later."

  The servant bowed and retreated.

  Xu Jie gathered his thoughts, and walked slowly to meet this "classmate" who didn't even tell him his name. Although this county mansion is newly built, it continues the simple and unadorned style of the previous owner, Shen Tang, with a somewhat rough and comfortable taste.

  The side hall is rarely used, and there is no interior decoration. Only the warm sun in the afternoon slanted in, reflecting the lines of the window leaks, making the room look less empty. The young man sat on the mat, looked around from left to right, and adjusted his posture from time to time to make the sleeping girl in his arms more comfortable. The mother of the baby girl is different from the laziness and casualness of the teenager, with a straight and strong back.

  The boy muttered: "This is too simple..."

  He has seen the luxury of the palace, where everything is exquisite, and every piece is a treasure.

  The "poor" coming to your face!

   Before he finished speaking, footsteps came from the door.

  The boy immediately fell silent and looked over.

  The wooden door was opened.

  The visitor is a well-dressed and handsome young scribe. Although he has a neat beard, he does not diminish his youth in the slightest. The young scribe also looked over, seeing his face, the previously relaxed face tensed slightly.

  Emmm…

   Obviously, the other party doesn't like his face.

  The boy shrank his neck and lowered his head.

  The visitor looked away indifferently, and looked at the woman. He was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the identity of the other party.

  He strode forward: "You are... Senior Sister Ning?"

   It took me a while to be sure.

Without him, the woman in front of me didn't know what had happened, her face was sallow, her temples were stained with white silk, her eye sockets were sunken, and there were creases at the end of her eyes. This haggard and tired appearance was about twenty years younger than the person in my memory. , he almost didn't dare to admit it.

When the young man heard this title, he looked carefully at people from the corner of his eye—even though he was not literate, he also knew what "senior sister" meant, which meant that the young scholar in front of him was in the same school as the woman next to him. Impressive.

   Studying and studying has always been exclusive to men.

   And the woman—

  If you come from a wealthy family and the elders in the family love you, you may hire a female gentleman to teach the girl to read and write, otherwise, it will be enlightened by the girl's mother.

   When you really go out of the house and enter the school, only the storybook exists.

  The woman responded: "Junior Brother Xu."

  Xu Jie finally came to his senses and ordered someone to watch the tea. After the two were seated, he asked, "Senior Sister, this is..."

  Why are you so down and out?

The woman smiled wryly when she heard the words: "It's a long story, because first... my husband has gone, so I took my daughter to flee... find a shelter, hide from the limelight for a while, so that I can raise my daughter with peace of mind. Let her inherit her husband's behest..."

  The woman pauses in addressing her husband.

   Those two words scratched her throat like a knife.

  The mood that I thought was numb was unspeakably sour again. His eyes were red, but he didn't want Xu Jie to see the joke, so he turned his back slightly and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. He turned around after his emotions stabilized a bit, and said with a strong face, "I made Wen Zhu laugh..."

"First, first husband? Brother Yan, he, did he say..." Xu Jie hadn't received the news of Yan An's death, but after seeing what happened to his widow, he vaguely guessed what happened to his widow. Thinking about the twists and turns, he could only sigh, "This is the end of the matter, please mourn."

  Xu Jie and Yan An can only be regarded as a casual friendship.

  The two once studied under a celebrity.

   We greeted each other and exchanged words.

   There is no in-depth understanding.

In contrast, he is more familiar with Yan An's wife, the Senior Sister Ning in front of him, and has also received the favor of the latter. You know, although Xu Jie has a wealth of money, his ancestors have always been criticized for starting a business. In every way. He went out to study when he was young, and admired various celebrities, but he was either rejected directly or politely declined...

  Regarding this, Xu Jie was both angry and helpless.

   Once on a boat trip to get drunk, he accidentally bumped into someone else's boat, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly pleaded guilty. The owner of the boat was a handsome young man with a feminine appearance. Seeing that he was depressed and drunk, the young man casually asked why. Xu Jie used his drunkenness to vent all his frustrations and dissatisfaction during his studies, and the other party sympathized with him very much. He also said that he has connections and can help introduce him to another famous person with high morals and high prestige.

  If Xu Jie is awake, I definitely don’t believe it.

   He even speculated that the other party had ulterior motives and had the idea of ​​extortion, but he believed it when he was drunk.

   Sober up the next day.

   In his bosom, there was a letter of recommendation from the boy.

  Introduce him to Yan Mingshi—a person he dare not visit, because there are too many students who admire him. But I have the letter in hand, if I don't try it, I'm afraid I will ruin the good intentions of others.

  Thinking about it, Xu Jie, with the feeling of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, came to the door and handed over the greeting card, begging to see the other party.

  Master Yan just read the notes in the letter, then agreed with a smile, and arranged for him a place in the academy.

  Xu Jie was in a daze after hearing this.

  This matter—

   That's it? ? ?

  Who is that boy? ? ?

   Could it be the precious son of the banquet master? ? ?

   Soon, Xu Jie met yesterday's rafting boy. His surname was Ning, not Yan, but he had a very good relationship with Teacher Yan, who also liked this bright student very much. With the help of young people, Xu Jie's school life can be regarded as like a fish in water. Occasionally discriminated against, but I didn't embarrass him because of his youth.

  The only thing Xu Jie regrets is that the young man is obviously talented and intelligent, but he was born ignorant. It means that you can't condense your literary heart and open up the Danfu, you can only be an ordinary person.

  He regretted it, and bluntly said that he would help the young man find good doctors and treasures, so that the young man might gain a literary heart.

  The young man smiled and said: [I know you have a lot of money, but there are some things in the world that cannot be resisted by human and financial resources. Me, this life is my life, just admit it. 】

   ヾ(ω`)o

   Today is not as long as yesterday, woo woo woo.

   Shiitake add another one or two hundred words, making up two thousand and five, at least equal to yesterday
