At the beginning, the little koi carp was grabbed by a wolf and became the favorite of the beasts.

Time passed day by day.

Everyone also took off their thick cotton clothes and put on thin shirts.

During this time, there was a lot of discussion in the village, and the topic always turned to Lao Zheng's family.

"The Zheng family has made a fortune. They actually built such a big yard again."

"No, otherwise why would Zheng Gentian's wife come back?"

"Let me tell you, she just likes the Zheng family's property. She is really thick-skinned. She ran away and came back."

"I grew up like a fairy. What will happen when I come back? I think it's the Zheng family's good luck. Otherwise, how could good things continue to happen?"

"Yes, I heard that Mr. Zheng is getting married soon, and he is marrying a young lady from the town."

"Hey, what a pity. I originally planned to introduce my niece to the fourth child, but I didn't expect that they have already booked it!"

Speaking of Zheng Laosi's marriage, both Zheng Lao and Zhou were quite surprised.

They asked someone to arrange marriage. They had already made plans for the fourth child to get married, but they didn't expect Shopkeeper Sun to be so understanding of justice. They didn't need to get married, but only wanted their character.

Zheng Laosi has been working in their shop for many years and knows his character very well.

Shopkeeper Sun originally planned to recruit a son-in-law.

It was Father Zheng and Mrs. Zhou who made him change his mind.

He didn't expect them to be so sincere. They asked someone to come to propose marriage, but they directly said they agreed to the fourth child's marriage, and they would pay for the betrothal gift and so on.

As long as the two children can live happily.

Now he didn't have to think about it. If he could marry into such a good family, he didn't care whether he married into his wife or not. He just agreed to it, so as not to be robbed by others.

Besides, he already valued Zheng Laosi very much and couldn't be more relieved to have him as his son-in-law.

Shopkeeper Sun only made one request, which was that after the two of them had a child, they would have a surname that would follow his.

For Father Zheng and the others, this is simply a trivial matter.

When you marry into the Zheng family, the most important thing you don't have to worry about is giving birth to a son and just changing your surname. They don't care about it.

In this way, the marriage between Zheng Laosi and Miss Sun was decided.

On this day, Father Zheng and Zheng Gentian were weeding in the fields as usual.

"Dad, uncle! Go back quickly, the county magistrate is here." Meihua stood at the head of the field and shouted breathlessly.

Father Zheng and the others didn't have time to ask any more questions. They picked up the tools and hurried back with Mei Hua.

After they got home, they cleaned up and then walked into the main room.

"Lord Magistrate, why are you here?"

When Father Zheng and the others entered the house, they began to bow and salute.

"Don't look outside. I'm here this time to announce the good news." County Magistrate Huang narrowed his eyes with a smile.

Father Zheng and Zheng Gentian looked at each other, both confused.

If they could have any happy event, they would ask the county magistrate to report it in person.

Seeing their curious looks, County Magistrate Huang took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Don't worry, there is still one person who hasn't arrived yet!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the village chief ran in from the door panting.

"Sir, you are here!"

He was about to salute, but was stopped by Magistrate Huang.

"Don't be polite, just sit down and talk!"

Hearing this, the village chief and Father Zheng all sat down.

"Lord County Magistrate, why did you come here in person?" Father Zheng couldn't hold back and asked.

"A happy event, a great event!"

Magistrate Huang gave up and took a sip of tea.

Father Zheng was so anxious that his palms were sweating. What kind of happy event is this?

When Magistrate Huang saw that the atmosphere was almost over, he spoke again: "Your Majesty, please show mercy and plan to build an academy near your village."

The village chief and the others were stunned when they heard this, academy? Are they nearby? Your Majesty?

How is this possible?

Something I couldn't even imagine.

Father Zheng came to his senses and said with a smile: "Sir, please stop joking. How can we build an academy in this remote village?"

To return the gift from the Holy One, the Holy One may not even know that such a place exists.

The village chief and Zheng Gentian also nodded in agreement. They didn't believe that such a good thing would happen to their village.

Magistrate Huang said helplessly: "Do you think I am joking? I don't have the time to travel so far to make a joke."

It's no wonder that they couldn't believe it. He didn't believe it himself when he first received the news.

Father Zheng saw that his expression was serious and it didn't look like he was cheating, so he asked doubtfully: "County Magistrate Huang, how come this kind of good thing has to be our turn?"

They couldn't imagine it.

"Do you still remember the snow clearing thing?"

Father Zheng and the others nodded. How could they not remember that during that time, the first thing they did every day was to clear the snow.

"Didn't the prefect say at the beginning that this method should be passed down? I will inform you when I get back. The results are very good!"

He also took advantage of it and got some rewards. It seems that getting closer to the Zheng family will bring him good luck.

When the village chief heard this, he relaxed. He smiled and said, "It's good if we can help. This is what we should do."

Magistrate Huang continued: "This matter was reported to the court by the magistrate, so we got this reward. Now you believe it."

Only then did Father Zheng and the others completely believe that it was the magistrate who had helped. Otherwise, the emperor was far away, so there would have been no way that the news would have reached the ears of the Holy Emperor.

This made them so excited that they couldn't sit still. Once there is an academy, not only their village, but also nearby villages will benefit.

The children can all go to the academy to study.

This is really a great joy.

"Thank you, Magistrate Huang, for coming to announce the good news. We have to celebrate today."

Father Zheng was so excited that he didn't know where to put his hands. He was not so excited after the new yard was built.

Magistrate Huang nodded with satisfaction. The news had arrived and his mission was completed.

"By the way, I forgot to ask you, is it your son who sets up a stall selling cakes in the town?"

Although he only glanced at it from a distance, he still recognized it.

"They are the two sons of Cao Min. There are not many people in the family, so we can only think of other ways to make some money."

Father Zheng was a little uneasy. Could it be that those two boys caused some trouble?

Seeing his nervous expression, County Magistrate Huang comforted him: "Don't worry, I'm just curious to ask if your pastries are better than those in the capital. Have you considered opening a shop?"

The pastries their family has been eating recently were all bought from the two Zheng brothers. Since I started eating the pastries made by the Zheng family, I couldn’t even take a bite of the pastries they bought before.

Seeing the county magistrate asking about the cakes, Father Zheng laughed.

He said sheepishly: "To tell you the truth, we are looking for a shop. Setting up a stall all the time is not a long-term solution. Once it rains, we won't be able to sell."

Magistrate Huang nodded and said, "As long as you have this idea, I have a vacant shop there. If you don't mind it, just give me some rent."

As long as he can eat salty pastries every day.
