Chapter 213: County Magistrate Zhou Sees the Lin Family Return Gift
There are more than ten counties under the jurisdiction of Anping Prefecture, and the situation in each county is similar to that in Linshui County. The county town is on the verge of running out of water and food, and there are groups of refugees outside the county town. The imperial court is unable to provide disaster relief, and Anping Prefecture itself is in danger. The county magistrates are worried and cannot sleep at night.
When the county magistrates received the official letter from Anping Prefecture informing them to collect relief grain, they were in disbelief and had no idea where the grain came from in the government office. After learning from the bailiff who delivered the official letter that Bodhisattva had appeared in the government office, the county magistrates happily ordered their men and carriages to go to the city to collect relief grain.
So far, troops from five counties have arrived in the provincial capital.
When they walked into the government office and saw the mountains of grain inside, the people from the five counties couldn't help but burst into tears of joy.
-
Upon hearing the news that the county government was distributing relief grain and that there was water in the government office, the people of Linshui County and the disaster victims who had entered the city flocked to the government office.
When Mrs. Zhou and her son returned to the county government office, there was a huge crowd in front of the south gate of the government office, making it difficult to move and the crowd was very excited.
For fear that something might happen if there were too many people, County Magistrate Zhou personally stood guard outside the gate of the county government office. Even though he knew that Madam Zhou and her son had returned to the county government office, he had no time to go to the backyard to see them.
It was not until the beginning of the You period that order was restored in front of the yamen, and then County Magistrate Zhou went to the backyard.
"Ma'am, come and help me change my clothes. I barely slept last night and I'm very sleepy now."
County Magistrate Zhou walked into the bedroom and saw Mrs. Zhou sitting at the round table as if she didn't see him, so he couldn't help but urge her.
"Master, here we come."
Mrs. Zhou came to her senses and hurriedly stood up to help County Magistrate Zhou undress.
"Madam, what did Patriarch Lin say?"
"I am incompetent and I don't know how to start."
"Madam, there is no need to blame yourself. After you left, the Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce came to sell grain. The Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce just closed last night, and a large amount of grain and water appeared out of thin air in the county government. With the blessing of the Bodhisattva, Linshui County will be safe for the time being."
"Master, don't you think it's strange? A few days ago, Xiao Baoer told me that a Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce was going to Linshui County to sell grain, and then a Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce really came to the county to sell grain.
This morning Tang Qiuhe told me that there was no shortage of food and water in the county government, and it turned out that there was really no shortage of food and water in the county government.
Their words are so accurate, either they have the ability to predict the future, or they were involved in these things..."
After learning about the recent situation in the county from Wang Laosan, Mrs. Zhou felt that there was something wrong with Tang Qiuhe and Lin Baoer. As it was inconvenient to tell the servants, she had to keep it in her heart. Now that she finally had someone to talk to, she couldn't help but chatter.
"Madam, I know Tang Qiuhe. She is Lin Changping's wife. Who is Xiao Baoer?"
County Magistrate Zhou also felt it was a bit strange when he heard this and asked curiously.
"Xiao Bao'er is Tang Qiuhe's daughter. She is 12 years old this year and looks like the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens. It is said that she has eaten an elixir..."
"Oh, there is such a thing!"
After taking off his outer robe, County Magistrate Zhou felt relaxed. After hearing what Mrs. Zhou said, he suddenly became interested and walked to the round table and sat down.
"Master, I have a feeling that the food and water that appeared out of nowhere in the county government office were not sent by the Bodhisattva, but were left by the owner of Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce before closing down. The owner of Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce might be the fairy Xiao Bao'er."
As she spoke, Mrs. Zhou had already placed Magistrate Zhou's official robe on the hanger beside the bed.
"Why are you so sure, ma'am?"
……
Madam Zhou walked over to the left of County Magistrate Zhou and sat down, "Master, just look at these gifts from the Lin family on the table and you will know.
I thought the Lin family's return gifts were just a courtesy, but I didn't expect that each of their return gifts looked so extraordinary.
Except for the Qilin ornament which was given by Patriarch Lin, the other three return gifts were given by the old lady from the second branch of the Lin family.
Before I left Linjia Village, Xiao Baoer took the old lady from the second house into the yard to prepare return gifts. These return gifts were most likely given by Xiao Baoer.
I just think these gifts are extraordinary, but I can’t tell what’s extraordinary about them. When you entered the bedroom just now, I was looking at these things and was distracted.”
"Oh, let me see."
Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Zhou became curious and looked at the return gifts on the round table one by one.
An exquisitely shaped desktop dressing mirror provides a clear reflection.
A jar of hard candy is colorful, crystal clear, and looks delicious.
A can of tea makes you feel refreshed just by smelling it, and it tastes even better when you drink it.
A pair of jadeite Kirin ornaments are transparent and moist, and they are full of luster. They are obviously good things at first glance.
Even though County Magistrate Zhou came from a poor family, he could tell that the gifts from the Lin family were extraordinary. As for how extraordinary they were, he couldn't explain.
……
"Madam, what you said makes sense. I also think that the owner of Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce might be the fairy Xiaobaoer."
After looking at the Lin family's return gift and thinking about what Mrs. Zhou said for a while, County Magistrate Zhou suddenly understood and agreed with what Mrs. Zhou had just said.
"Madam, since the tea leaves were sent by the fairy, they must be extraordinary. Quickly make two cups of tea for us to taste."
"Wait a moment, sir."
There was a pot of boiling water and several teacups on the round table. Mrs. Zhou responded and started to make tea.
"Madam, a large amount of food suddenly appeared in the Anping government office. The people who were notified by the government office to receive the relief food just left. I asked him to take a letter to Prefect Zhao."
"Xiao Bao'er has done a great deed by saving the people of Yongzhou from disaster with his own strength."
Mrs. Zhou praised when she heard this.
“Since the Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce opened, the Tang Family Escort Agency has had a steady supply of food and water. As soon as the Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce closed, a large amount of food and water appeared in the county government.
After noticing the anomaly of Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce and hearing the yamen runner who delivered the official letter talk about the strange things that happened in the government office, I suspected that Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce was closely related to these things. However, I did not expect that the owner of Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce was Xiao Baoer.
Fortunately, I asked Li Laishu to notify Linjia Village to come and collect relief food, otherwise I would not be able to face the fairy in the future."
"The master is wise!"
"Madam, you are too kind. The grain was originally sent to the county government by Xiao Baoer. I am just offering you a gift."
"Master, have some tea."
"Uh-huh."
Taking the teacup from Mrs. Zhou, County Magistrate Zhou couldn't wait to drink it.
"Master, be careful with the heat!"
"Madam, this tea is indeed extraordinary. It makes you feel refreshed, makes you salivate, and leaves a lingering fragrance on your teeth and cheeks. Once the tea goes into your stomach, your fatigue will disappear..."
County Magistrate Zhou tasted the tea and praised it highly.
"That's what the master said."
Mrs. Zhou picked up the teacup and took two sips.
"Master, Yan'er and Xiaobao'er's brothers and sisters are having a good time, and he also wants to go to Linjia Village to play."
"Madam, Yan'er likes Linjia Village so much, why not let him go to Lin's family school to study? I will ask Li Laishu to send him to Linjia Village in a few days. What do you think?"
There is a little fairy in Linjia Village. County Magistrate Zhou is eager to send his son to Linjia Village to get some of the fairy spirit. What Mrs. Zhou said is exactly what he wants.
"Okay, Master, it's up to you."
Although she was a little reluctant to part with her son, Mrs. Zhou readily agreed. She also wanted her only son to be blessed with immortal energy and grow up healthily.
-
"Big sister, why haven't Bao'er and the others come out yet? Is something wrong?
Not only that, I heard no movement in Dalang's bedroom."
Ever since Lin Baoer and the other three entered Lin Dalang's bedroom, Mrs. Tang would walk outside the bedroom from time to time to listen for any noises. Until the sun set and night fell, she still didn't hear any noise coming from the bedroom. When she could no longer bear it, she went to the backyard to find Tang Qiuhe who was washing a horse and told her about the matter.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. They will definitely not be in danger. They will probably come out in a while. Don't disturb them during the marrow washing. Sister-in-law, please don't go outside the bedroom and startle them."
Mrs. Tang didn't know martial arts and she only knew that there was no movement in the dormitory. Little did she know that Tang Qiuhe had already known that there was no one in the dormitory.
In order to cover up for Lin Baoer, Tang Qiuhe had no choice but to deceive Mrs. Tang.
Lin Baoer and the other three had not left the dormitory for several hours. Grandma Lin and Li Xianglan couldn't help but feel a little worried. Seeing that Madam Tang went to the backyard, they sneaked to the outside of Lin Dalang's dormitory and listened for any noise.
Grandma Lin and Li Xianglan had both taken advanced fitness pills, and their hearing was better than that of ordinary people. After listening for a while, they felt that there seemed to be no one in the dormitory, and they were both shocked.
"Mom, it seems that no one is in the room."
Li Xianglan whispered.
"Second daughter-in-law, let's go to the back window and listen again."
After saying that, Grandma Lin walked towards the side room...
Li Xianglan hurried to catch up.
……
Walking to the window of the inner room where Li Wenxuan lived, the two held their breath and listened to the noises inside the room for a while, and found that there was no one in the inner room.
"Mom, why don't you open the window and take a look."
Li Xianglan suddenly became anxious.
"Don't be impatient, second daughter-in-law. Wait a little longer. If you disturb them while they are washing their marrow, the consequences will be unpredictable."
Thinking that her granddaughter was a little fairy, even though Grandma Lin was a little anxious, she still believed that Lin Baoer would not be in danger and hurriedly stopped her.
"Oh……"
Li Xianglan responded helplessly.
……
After another cup of tea, there was still no movement in Li Wenxuan's dormitory. Li Xianglan couldn't help but walk back and forth outside the back window.
"Second daughter-in-law, go and prepare dinner, so I don't get dizzy walking around here."
Seeing Li Xianglan running around in the alley in a panic, Grandma Lin couldn't help but blame her.
"Oh……"
Li Xianglan responded absentmindedly and walked towards the front yard...
