After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich

Xu Mengxiao felt that Lu He had disappeared in the blink of an eye. Without waiting for her to be confused, she followed Uncle Li Zheng and Lu Hai to greet him.

Several tables of villagers sitting in the lobby and courtyard were so frightened that their legs weakened.

Although they heard the "good news", the common people at the bottom were deeply afraid of such officials. Even if the other party walked in with a smile, they still did not dare to express their anger and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"See the magistrate!"

"Hey, you're all up, why are you kneeling down? I'm not here today, I'm here to attend the Lu family's housewarming banquet, just like you."

The new county magistrate seemed to have an easy-going smile, but Xu Mengxiao noticed the slightest hint of majesty in his smile.

He is not a simple character. He looks quite young. He is in his twenties, but he has a sense of maturity, which blurs the feeling of age.

"Lin Gui, give me some more delicious dishes so that the magistrate can taste the delicious food of Taoyuan Township." Xu Mengxiao ordered, immediately attracting the other party's attention.

"Hey, good!"

"Is this?" Song Jiu asked, actually he already had the answer in his heart.

"This is Cao Min's eldest daughter-in-law." Lu Lizheng introduced, "She is also the one who has provided many suggestions to Cao Min."

Lu Lizheng had revealed before that he got many of his ideas from this young woman. Song Jiu was surprised by how delicate and beautiful she was. However, thinking about how the Lu family's life had skyrocketed in a short period of time, he smiled. Deepened a little.

"So this is Lu Lizheng's eldest son?" He looked at Lu Hai next to him, as if he was extremely interested.

Lu Hai clenched his fists suddenly, thinking of his elder brother's strangeness, he almost couldn't help showing any emotion.

"No, this is Cao Min's youngest son. The eldest son is not feeling well and is resting in the house."

I feel unwell...

Song Jiu became serious, "Then should I go and visit?"

"Thank you for your concern! However, my husband-in-law has been very weak recently and cannot bear the cold. Your Excellency must have brought a lot of cold air when you came along the way. Please come and sit in the main room to get rid of the cold air. Food and drinks will be ready soon." Xu Mengxiao smiled.

Everyone secretly took a breath. This Xu Mengxiao actually dared to arrange for the county magistrate to come. Didn't they see that Li Zheng responded with a word, and didn't dare to say anything more.

Song Gao was also surprised for a moment, and looked at Xu Mengxiao twice. He was surprisingly not angry, but smiled and said: "Okay, I was negligent. Everyone eat quickly. It's cold today, don't let the dishes get cold!"

The more they blocked him from looking, the more curious and excited he became. Was it what he had guessed?

Even if it was just an unfounded association, he had to verify it himself!

Song Ji couldn't help but look around secretly. Although it was a new house, it was much simpler and simpler than the red walls, green tiles, jade railings and carved beams.

But among the green mountains and green waters, there is a rural atmosphere of returning to the fields, quiet, peaceful, and unconcerned with worldly affairs.

Hey, after disarming and returning to the field, don’t you care about worldly affairs?

"I wonder why you are here this time?" Lu Lizheng interrupted his thoughts, made tea and water for him and asked.

"Look at me, I almost forgot about the real thing!" Song Gao patted his head, "As I said when I came here, I brought you good news today, which will make you even more happy."

The voices in the main room were not covered up, and the door was opened. Not only the villagers sitting in the yard heard it, but Xu Shengjie, Shopkeeper Tao and others outside the door also heard a few sporadic sounds.

Immediately afterwards, I heard the county magistrate say: "After the last visit by Mr. He, the Minister of Industry, and Mr. Duan, the prefect, they all said that your Yaoyu Village has done very well under your leadership, and other villages have also been affected. Some benefits."

"The waterwheel you made has brought convenience and solved worries to many places in Daxing."

"So you two adults will discuss it after you return and ask me to reward you more."

"I've been thinking about it for a few days. I didn't expect the reward, so I came here right away." Song Jiao smiled and asked his accompanying men to take out a piece of official documents.

White paper with black characters and a red seal, written clearly——

"Transfer letter!?" Lu Hai exclaimed.

Zheng Lu Dayou from Yaoyu Village is now transferred to the position of mayor of Yunxi Town. He will be implemented next month. The official location will be the original Yaoyu Village. Another office will be set up in the town to be responsible for resolving chores and disputes in the town and coordinating with residents. The county magistrate, magistrate and others.

The town was originally in charge of people such as Yuanwai and squires, which was a form of management based on the private sector. However, Lu Lizheng was personally appointed by the court. Perhaps there were no elders who could make the people in the town obey.

But they have greater power and higher status than them, and they are directly managed by them!

For a moment, the voices of Lu Hai and others spread to the courtyard outside.

"Li Zheng is going to be the mayor?"

"Mayor? He is one level higher than Li Zheng. He can take charge of all the villages under Yunxi Town, all the people in the town, and the old squires in the town who are aloof and disrespectful?"

"Hiss, is this a promotion? Two levels? Or three levels?" Although there is no rank, there is real power, huge real power!

Shopkeeper Tao and Xu Shengjie outside the door naturally heard these discussions and couldn't help frowning. With the mayor's protection, will Taoyuan Township in the town be easy to deal with?

Mayor of the town, although he is not an official, he is better than an official. How could he let a mere child become the mayor? Xu Shengjie thought reluctantly, but he forgot that he was not even a child.

Lu Lizheng originally took the examination for a county clerkship. If he had not given birth to his sick eldest son, Lu He, and there was no money to treat the child's illness, and it was expensive to study, he would not have given up taking the imperial examination.

It was not until later that he became an official that his family's life became easier. At least they had enough money to support Lu He's life and marry him a wife.

If they hadn't been cheated out of money by the old Xu family, they wouldn't have become impoverished. Fortunately, they got married to a lucky daughter-in-law by accident, and as a blessing in disguise, they now became the first mayor of Yunxi Town. !

Lu Lizheng was not interested in fame and fortune, but if he had it, others had worked hard to win it for him. Naturally, he would not refuse. He immediately accepted the transfer order and knelt down and kowtowed.

"Thank you, Lord Magistrate, for your appreciation! The common people must do a good job as mayor of the town, so that the people of Yunxi Town can also benefit!"

Xiao Yatou has done so much, and if she wants her father to make a difference, then he will continue and do a good job, and he may be able to help her in the future!

Although Lu Lizheng could not see the ambition of his daughter-in-law, he did not think that this was not what a woman should do. Since he enjoyed her efforts, how could he say that she was not.

For her hard work and management, Lu Lizheng just felt that he, as an elder, could not do it well, otherwise how could the younger generation do this, without even taking a break.

If Xu Mengxiao knew that her love for money and her desire to be strong were regarded by Uncle Li Zheng as the whole family's hard work, she would definitely laugh and say nothing.

There is a kind of person for whom hard work is a joy, not a burden. Not only will he not feel tired, but he will gain a lot and have endless motivation.

"By the way, the prefect said that there is another reward - fifty taels of silver as a reward for your past achievements." Song Gao asked someone to take out a small plate of neatly arranged silver ingots.

The people around him were all jealous. Lu Lizheng had been working as a lieutenant for so many years, but he probably never got such a large salary.

I didn’t expect that the reward would be so generous!

Lu Lizheng was also very happy. He finally made a lot of money for the family and could straighten his back.
