Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 228 The savior arrives
Yao Shu did not dare to claim the credit. She was not sure what Magistrate Ning was thinking. If he was interested, even if she declined at this time, the credit and reward she deserved would not be less. If the other party doesn't have this idea, she will show too much concern for credit, which may lead to disaster.
She didn't dare to gamble. Just now, she didn't miss the excitement and enthusiasm in Magistrate Ning's eyes.
Judging from the posture, the other party wanted to take the credit. She did not dare to compete with the local parents and officials. Even if this was the credit she deserved, she had to give it up.
Even if Yao Shu was unwilling, she could only choose to lie dormant.
It was obvious that her attitude made Magistrate Ning very satisfied, and the smile on his face became more and more genuine.
"I know your merits very well, and I will not treat you badly."
Ning Quan didn't mind letting them drink the broth. Presumably these refugees were very easy to satisfy. He only needed to give them a little money to stop their mouths.
He worked hard again and found that most of the credit for the high-yielding grain crops was his, and his promotion to Zhangzhou was just around the corner.
Yao Shu didn't take his words to heart. She just hoped that the matter would be understood as soon as possible. Her eyes swept across the sand, fearing that they would not be able to save these sweet potatoes and potatoes.
In the following time, everyone in Dahe Village stood aside one after another. It was obviously their fields and crops, but they had no place to get involved.
The yamen servants brought by the county magistrate can be said to be hands-on, and they never stop collecting grain from the fields.
Yao Shu and others stood in the corner, consciously keeping their distance from the government officials.
"Sister-in-law, what should we do now? The food is all being taken away. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have reported it to the official."
The village chief blamed himself for this. In his impression, things taken away by the government were never returned, and there was no compensation.
Without this food, it would almost cut off half of the livelihood of the people in Dahezhuang Village. This made the village chief not anxious.
It's better to endure the anger for a while and ignore the villain behind the fire, at least half of the food can be saved.
"Don't worry, even if you don't report it to the official, the situation won't get much better."
Yao Shu knew very well that if they did not show a strong attitude, they would be targeted by countless people watching in the dark, and the food in the village would not be able to be saved.
"But if we wait any longer, they will leave with the food."
How could the village chief not be anxious? He even had the urge to pick up weapons and confront the government.
He now understands that the many bandits in the mountains may not be willing to go up the mountain themselves. Perhaps they are forced to do so by the world. They just want to live.
"Wait a minute, the Wang brothers have already gone to invite someone."
If not, Yao Shu would have been unable to hold back for a long time. Now, she placed almost all her hopes on Wang Chengzhi, hoping that the other party would not fool her.
Before this, Wang Chengzhi said that he had people he knew in Zhangzhou City who had some connections with the officialdom.
As for Yao Shu, her idea is very simple. Since she can no longer hide it, she might as well publicize the matter. It would be best if it attracts the attention of many parties and competes for the credit. By then, they may be able to find a way out of the cracks. vitality.
"Invite someone? Invite who?"
The village chief looked confused. In his impression, the Wang brothers were also foreigners who had fled, so who could they invite?
"I do not know either."
Yao Shu really didn't know. She hadn't asked specifically before. This time she remembered it in a hurry. No matter who she could invite, it would be of some use.
After getting the news from Yao Shu, the village chief frequently looked in the direction of the village entrance, hoping that the "savior" would appear soon.
Just when Yao Shu could hardly sit still, there was finally movement from the direction of the village entrance. However, the group of people coming here was really big. She didn't know if she had seen it wrong. How did she feel about this person? The unknown official traveled with more fanfare than the county magistrate.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, is this really our savior?"
"It should be right."
She was slightly more stable than the village chief, at least she wasn't frightened.
It is a good thing for them that the visitor has a higher status. After all, only people with high official status can compete with the county magistrate, otherwise it will not be effective.
As the visitor gradually approached, Yao Shu could see more clearly. She saw soldiers wearing armor and had some guesses about the visitor's identity, but she herself was a little unconvinced.
If the Wang brothers really had such a relationship, why should they stay and suffer in Dahe Village with Kuhaha? There was no need to follow the escape all the way, why not just come here and join him.
Furthermore, how could the man who had everything in his sights be called upon so easily?
When she saw the county magistrate stand up from his seat and hurriedly ran over to greet him, Yao Shu confirmed his identity, and her guess was indeed correct.
"Old lady, why does that person look familiar to me?"
Shen Nanshan poked his head out from behind Yao Shu. When he looked at that person, he always felt that he had seen him somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it for a while. He was really old and his memory was not very good.
"Of course it looks familiar."
Yao Shu said this with gritted teeth. She had not forgotten that this man threatened to interrogate her and wanted to torture her. It was rare for her to be so panicked, so she was deeply impressed.
"This is our General Ling who guards the northwest."
With this arrival, Yao Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief. General Ling's moral character was unquestionable, and she no longer had to worry about everyone suffering.
I saw Magistrate Ning stepping forward to greet General Ling warmly, but his warm face went against his cold butt. The other party's attitude could not be described as lukewarm.
"I'm here to pay my respects to the general. I wonder why General Ling is here. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Although Ling Hui's official rank was much higher than his, military generals rarely interfered in political affairs, especially agricultural and mulberry affairs, so Ning Quan still had some luck and wanted to ignore this matter.
It's a pity that Ling Hui came here for high-yielding grain crops. The food and grass for his 100,000 troops have not yet been obtained. The court is now in chaos, and the grain and grass imported from Houyu is already somewhat insufficient. But for this high-yield grain, he Grain seeds have high hopes.
"Where is Yao Shu?"
"The civilian woman is here."
Yao Shu was stunned for a moment when her name was suddenly called. Her expression was a little strange. How did General Ling know her name?
She acts fairly low-key, so she probably hasn't been exposed yet.
"How many seasons can these sweet potatoes and potatoes be planted in a year? When should they be sown? How should they be planted..."
As soon as the two met, Ling Hui asked eagerly.
