Chapter 46 The Magistrate's Wife Goes to Lin Village
The wife of the county magistrate, Mrs. Qiao, was planning to take her 8-year-old son Zhou Yan to live temporarily in Linjia Village.
After packing from yesterday to today, Mrs. Zhou finally finished packing everything.
After the family had breakfast today, County Magistrate Zhou summoned Li Laishu and ordered him to take 10 yamen runners and two coachmen to escort Mrs. Zhou and her son to Linjia Village.
Li Laishu is the Li Laoer mentioned by County Magistrate Zhou. He is Li Xianglan’s younger brother and is 27 years old this year.
After practicing martial arts with Li Laitong for several years, the 19-year-old Li Laishu was spotted by the county's legal advisor who was recruiting yamen runners and entered the county yamen as an ordinary yamen runner.
Li Laishu, who worked diligently for 8 years, was promoted to the leader of the strong squad this year, in charge of 50 yamen runners.
A few days ago, because the Xinglong Escort Agency’s food was robbed, Li Laishu was ordered by County Magistrate Zhou to be beaten with a stick, and he was almost dismissed from his position as team leader.
-
If we really want to make a fuss about the robbery of the Xinglong Escort Agency's food, we can't blame Li Laishu entirely.
The 50 yamen runners under Li Laishu were divided into five teams, each with 5 people, and each team had a team leader.
The four squads out of the five squads were guarding the four main gates of the county town.
Li Laishu leads a group of people and is usually only responsible for patrolling a few city gates.
A few days ago, County Magistrate Zhou suddenly received a piece of news: it was said that several thousand refugees were going to cause trouble in Linshui County.
County Magistrate Zhou was so frightened that he not only sent people to Anping Prefecture to ask the prefect for help in the middle of the night, but also repeatedly instructed Li Laishu: Under no circumstances should the county gate be opened before the garrison troops from the prefectural city arrived at the county city.
The four teams under Li Laishu were responsible for guarding the county's four major gates: east, west, south and north.
When the rations escorted by the Xinglong Escort Agency arrived at the east gate of the county town, Li Laishu was patrolling the south gate of the county town with his men.
The team leader in charge of the East City Gate is Liu Yong.
Liu Yong listens to Li Laishu very much.
After listening to County Magistrate Zhou's instructions, Li Laishu passed the instructions to the five squad leaders under him without changing them.
The five class leaders were frightened by Li Laishu's fighting power and were all very obedient.
The obedient Liu Yong didn't know how to adapt.
The boss said: Before the garrison troops from the provincial capital come to the county town, the county gate must not be opened under any circumstances.
-
"What? The food supplies of Xinglong Escort Agency were looted by refugees, and the one guarding the East Gate is Liu Yong..."
When County Magistrate Zhou heard the report from his lawyer, he was furious and ordered his men to beat Li Laishu with 10 sticks. He was so angry that he almost fired his team leader.
-
Li Laishu received a task: to take 12 people to escort Mrs. Zhou and her son to Linjia Village.
At 9:00 pm, escorted by Li Laishu and his men, Madam Zhou, along with her son Zhou Yan, her mother-in-law Hu, her maid Ying'er, and her little book boy Zhou Xiaoyuan, rode in a carriage towards Linjia Village...
When Mrs. Zhou and her son went to Linjia Village, they drove two horse-drawn carriages.
One carriage carried Mrs. Zhou, her son and three servants, and the other carriage was loaded with all the things Mrs. Zhou had packed over the past two days.
Among all the things packed, part of them were the clothes, food and things that Mrs. Zhou and her son would need when they lived in Linjia Village.
The other part is the gift that Mrs. Zhou prepared for Patriarch Lin.
The carriage was filled to the brim with all these things.
Li Laishu and his 10-odd people dressed in yamen uniforms, holding swords tightly in their hands, guarded the two carriages and accompanied them along the way...
They set out from the south gate of the county town and walked along the official road for more than 60 miles. Along the way, they saw many groups of ragged refugees.
When the groups of refugees saw the two carriages of Madam Zhou and her companions, their eyes glowed green, and they were eager to try...
Due to the presence of more than 10 yamen runners with knives on both sides of the carriage, the refugees hesitated again and again and did not dare to act rashly.
Helpless, they restrained their greedy eyes and silently watched Li Laishu and the others leave...
-
At the end of the Wei hour, Li Laishu and his group arrived safely at the foot of Woniu Mountain.
There is a winding road leading up to Woniu Mountain from the foot of the mountain.
We followed this winding mountain road up the mountain, and after walking about 30 miles we arrived at Linjia Village.
There were 13 yamen runners with Li Laishu in total. Except for the two coachmen and Li Laishu, the other 10 yamen runners all walked.
From the middle of Sishi to the end of Weishi, the sun is at its highest and the weather is hot. (10am to 3pm)
It took 10 walking yamen runners more than 60 miles to walk from the south gate of the county town to the foot of the present Woniu Mountain.
These 10 yamen runners were sweating, panting, and exhausted...
"Boss... we really can't walk any more, can we take a break?"
The squad leader Liu Yong asked, bending over, holding the knife in his hand, and panting.
There were refugees everywhere along the way. Li Laishu wanted to send Mrs. Zhou to Linjia Village immediately, but he didn't want anything to go wrong on the way. If something went wrong, he would be the one to be beaten.
When Li Laishu heard Liu Yong's request to rest, he subconsciously wanted to say "No", but suddenly he saw that the 10 yamen runners who were walking were so tired that they looked like ghosts...
Li Laishu immediately stopped what he was about to say and said reluctantly, "Okay! Everyone, go and rest under the shade of the tree for a while and stay alert!"
When the 10 yamen runners heard that Li Laishu had agreed, they hurriedly dragged their legs to the shade of the tree...
Once under the shade of the trees, everyone collapsed into the weeds on the ground.
Li Laishu gestured to the two coachmen, asking them to stop the carriage for a while.
After signaling to the two grooms, Li Laishu got off the horse, tied it to a tree, and then found a place to sit down, drink water, and take a rest...
After sitting for a while, Li Laishu felt a little uneasy...
-
Tang Shoucheng handled the escort agency's affairs.
Tang Qiubai's wife packed up the things at home.
Tang Qiubai persuaded Mr. Chen and his son.
After the Tang family had settled everything, they left the south gate of Linshui County and headed towards Linjia Village half an hour later than Madam Zhou and the others...
Tang Shoucheng is 54 years old. His wife has passed away. He has a daughter, Tang Qiuhe, and a son, Tang Qiubai.
Tang Qiubai was 36 years old and his wife Huang was 32 years old.
The couple had two sons and a daughter.
The eldest son Tang Yu is 15 years old, the second son Tang Jin is 13 years old, and the youngest daughter Tang Jiaojiao is 10 years old.
Mr. Chen Ranzhi was 38 years old. His wife had passed away. He had a daughter, Chen Xiaoyu, 19 years old, and a son, Chen Xiuwen, 17 years old.
The 17-year-old Chen Xiuwen was a scholar and had not yet arranged a marriage.
The Tang family also has an old housekeeper, Tang Lai Fu, 50 years old. Huang has a maid, Liu, 45 years old. Tang Jiaojiao has a little maid, Liu'er, 11 years old.
Mr. Chen had an attendant named Chen Dazhi, who was 35 years old.
After the matter of Xinglong Escort Agency was sorted out, the Tang family dismissed all the escort masters and employees of the agency, and almost all of their family assets were lost.
Now the Tang family still has two horse-drawn carriages, two ox-drawn carts, nearly a thousand kilograms of grain, and the house of the Xinglong Escort Agency.
A horse-drawn carriage from Mr. Chen's family carried Mr. Chen and his sons and their family's valuables.
The Chen family also put about 300 kilograms of grain and a lot of books on the Tang family's ox cart.
There are nine people in total including the master of the Tang family and his servants. Only Tang Shoucheng and Tang Qiubai have decent martial arts skills, while the others are just show-offs.
In Mr. Chen's family, only Chen Dazhi knows a little martial arts.
The Tang family had three horse-drawn carriages and two ox-drawn carts, and there was so much food on the ox-drawn carts.
The group walked out of the south gate of the county town and went to the foot of Woniu Mountain, attracting the attention of many refugees along the way.
On several occasions, dozens of refugees rushed to the ox carts, ready to steal things from them.
Tang Shoucheng and Tang Qiubai were both experienced escorts, and they were used to seeing this. They had no sympathy for these refugees, and they just picked up their knives and started killing them...
These people are just refugees, not bandits. It is impossible for Tang Shoucheng and his son to kill them.
He just picked up the right tendons of the refugees who were in the front.
After several groups of refugees who rushed to the front had their right hand tendons cut by Tang Shoucheng and his son, these groups of refugees realized how powerful this father and son were...
……
The Tang family members traveled from the county town to the foot of Woniu Mountain and picked the tendons of the right hands of at least 40 people.
Walking the same route, Li Laishu and his group were able to defeat the enemy without any bloodshed and it was much easier.
