Chapter 19 Misfits

Pomegranate straightened his spine and said proudly, "Mrs. Young Master, our master is the only top scholar among the county magistrates."

"Is that true?" Qi Yaoyao smiled when she heard this.

"The master has checked that all the county magistrates were selected from the imperial examinations, and they paid more attention to official voices and political achievements. Most of them were honest." Pomegranate preached with a small mouth.

Qi Yaoyao shook her head slightly in her heart, and then she started fighting with the official voice and political achievements.

Your master is now the commander of the bare feet, and it takes some effort to gain a foothold in this county.

Qi Yaoyao looked at the empty county government office and secretly pinched herself and felt pain, and finally felt the reality of ancient times!

"What can you hold in your hand?" Qi Yaoyao looked at her arm holding a basket.

"The lady ordered to buy burn paper." Pomegranate looked down at the burn paper in his basket and said, "It's strange that there are still some days before Qingming Festival, so I don't know why I want to buy burn paper."

"I need it." Qi Yaoyao said with clear black and white eyes looking at the pomegranate.

"Mrs. Is this?" Pomegranate looked at her with concern and asked.

"A relative has passed away." Qi Yaoyao closed her eyes and looked at her sadly.

Pomegranate looked at her worriedly and said, "I don't know what to say about this? I'm so sad." He said nervously, "I'm all gone." He said optimistically, "The young master and wife will be your relatives from now on." The more he spoke, the less he said.

This is a bit of a matter of course. I wonder if the young lady is angry.

Qi Yaoyao smiled kindly and said, "If anyone leads this county government, you will really get lost."

"Let's go! I will lead the way." Pomegranate said quickly, "Without the county government, you can get the chance to see it." He secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he turned around. It seemed that she would not blame herself.

Qi Yaoyao shook her head and laughed. No wonder she dared to pass by the county government with a basket. It turned out that there was really no one at this working hours.

Pomegranate led her to introduce the county government office in detail. On both sides of the corridor in front of the lobby, there are officials, households, ritual rooms in the east, and soldiers, punishments, and workshops in the west, which are the functional agencies of the government office.

The county magistrate's yamen to the east and the chief yamen to the west. All the things Qi Yaoyao had just seen were closed, and no one had been working for a long time.

What should I do if I haven’t worked for so many days? Such protests have really convinced the people in these yamen. Are you really not afraid, are you afraid?

After visiting the lobby, Qi Yaoyao and the others walked towards the inner yard and returned to their original place. In Sanshengtang, the place where the county magistrate usually works, there is a cross-yard on the left, called the East and West Flower Hall Courtyard, which is where the county magistrate and his family eat and live.

There is a back garden behind it, which is where the county magistrate rests, entertains and avoids political affairs.

Qi Yaoyao roughly calculated that the county government has 18 courtyards and more than 260 houses. The overall layout is strictly in accordance with the regulations of the local government office.

The entire building complex integrates the style of the north and south, with a large scale, profound and rigorous and endless changes.

This county government office should be the only house in this county that can be seen well. The front government office should have been renovated, with carved beams and painted buildings, and the repainted colorful paint is very bright!

As for this county town, I will go out to see it another day.

"Qi, where have you been running quietly?" Chen stood in the corridor with anxiety and looked at her with an unpleasant look on his face. He almost scared her soul away. He promised that he would not do stupid things, and the back foot would be gone.

"Madam." Pomegranate said after saluting.

Chen glared at Pomegranate, his eyes fell on Qi Yaoyao and said, "Let her say it yourself."

"I'll take a look at the county government office, and pomegranate introduced me." Qi Yaoyao's dark pupils looked at her frankly and said.

Chen looked at her in surprise and said, "Have you recovered from illness?"

"It's much better after taking the medicine. The prescription he prescribed is very effective." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with crystal clear eyes and praised without hesitation.

Chen raised a bright smile on his face and said, "Of course, my son's medical skills are good!" He suddenly restrained his smile again, his eyes locked on her and said, "You have changed differently."

"Is there any?" Qi Yaoyao looked at her quietly and said.

"You have always looked at us like this before." Chen said, looking at her arrogantly with his chin slightly raised.

"My wife said this, I think it's okay. Madam doesn't bother to talk to us." Pomegranate stepped back and looked at her in horror and said.

I actually took her to look around the county government, and my eyes were gone.

"I just don't like to talk, and I don't know each other well." Qi Yaoyao's bright black eyes were as clear as the autumn sky. Although it was faint, it was frank and sincere. "I'm so tired that I haven't gotten off yet."

"Qi, you are really weak. Just plant this place with me." Chen pointed to the two decorated open spaces in the courtyard and said, "This salary is too low. If you don't grow vegetables and raise chickens, don't think about eating meat."

Qi Yaoyao's dark eyes were as dark as ink, looking at her like a calm deep sea, saying, "You want to grow vegetables and raise chickens, you are the mother of the county magistrate."

"What's wrong with my mother? You have to eat, drink, defecate and urinate! This salary is only enough for us to drink porridge. If we don't find a way, it's a shame, but the whole family will hold their heads and drink the northwest wind." Chen looked at her angrily and said, "This is the back yamen, the people who can't come in, and we don't steal or rob them. What's there to look down on people?" said, "I still look down on them!", "Why do you say that sentence?" He clapped his hands, "Four words are farming and reading to pass on the family!"

When Qi Yaoyao heard this, she looked at her with a smile on her lips. This mother and son are really interesting and rare! They are really out of place with the mainstream now.

"Qi, don't smirk. If you are cured of your illness, I will leave this place to you." Chen said to her with a serious look on his face.

"Uh..." Qi Yaoyao's eyes turned around the two vegetable fields, wanting to say something small. She grew up in the countryside so she could grow vegetables on the balcony after she entered the city!

"What's wrong, don't you?" Chen said, looking at her with her eyebrows raised.

As he is now, "Uh...I won't." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with her innocent big eyes and said simply.

"I won't teach you!" Chen looked at her with bright eyes and said, "If you say this, the emperor also advocates mulberry farmers! It's not a good idea to grow vegetables as his daughter."

Qi Yaoyao was stunned when she heard this, then shook her head and laughed, admiring her agility.

Although the emperor is just a noun to her, it has no meaning, it does not mean anything?

"It's getting late, hurry up and serve the meal." Chen's eyes fell on Pomegranate and said, "Since Qi can leave, let's put the meal in the dining room!"

"Yes! I'll go now." Pomegranate Fufu retreated.

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you." Chen said hurriedly, and he and Pomegranate left the backyard one after another.
