If only Zhou Daliang's family did this, even if the village head didn't hold grudges against him, he wouldn't have a good impression of him. That's what everyone does.
What he thought was wrong also became right.
County Magistrate Fu himself felt that this was normal, after all, the weather had indeed cleared up completely in the past two days.
The head of the village was used to the magistrate Fu's appearance, and deep in his heart he also felt that this was normal.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and he couldn't help but sigh when he went to look at the moldy rice drying in the yards of various households.
His family is in good condition, there is no damp and moldy rice or wheat, but there are quite a few relatives who have this kind of situation, and he is still the head of the village, so he is also very worried.
Magistrate Fu was even more worried than him. The wrinkles on his forehead were almost enough to kill mosquitoes, which made Man Bao look again and again.
Master Bai also came. After all, it was the county magistrate. As a member of Qili Village, he would of course come to greet him, so he followed him all the way, and naturally saw the situation of the villagers.
Qili Village is not very big, there are only about 60 households in total, even if we walked to 20 or so houses, it would only take about an hour to pass. It happened to be noon, and the sun became more and more fierce. .
Master Bai, who was walking beside Magistrate Fu, smiled and said, "Master Fu, you have worked so hard all the way, why don't you go to the house to rest for a while, drink some water, and come out to inquire after the most vicious sun has passed at noon."
He sighed: "I don't know what's wrong with the weather this year. There was heavy rain a while ago, but the temperature has gradually risen in the past two days. It seems to be hotter than in previous years. Someone went to the field to replenish fertilizer, and almost passed out from heatstroke."
County Magistrate Fu squinted his eyes and glanced at the clear sky without even a cloud, and nodded with a sigh.
Turning around and seeing the two children hiding behind Zhou Dalang, he smiled and waved, "I just saw you and forgot to ask, where are your two homes?"
Man Bao and Bai Shanbao felt a little guilty towards the county magistrate after they did such a big event. The two of them consciously hid themselves well, but they were a little dumbfounded when they were greeted.
Man Bao held Bai Shanbao's hand subconsciously, and the little hands of the two children moved as if saying hello, and then they all stepped forward to salute.
Man Bao turned around and pointed to the entrance of the village, "Go back to the county magistrate, my house is right there, and you went in to see it just now."
The old Zhou's family also dried the moldy rice just now. Although it has been dried once, but the sun is so good, of course it would be better to dry it more.
But Man Bao was guilty at the time, so he hid behind and watched.
County magistrate Fu had a deep memory of that house, and asked with a smile, "The two green brick houses that are connected together belong to your family?"
Man Bao nodded fiercely.
County magistrate Fu nodded thoughtfully, no wonder their family is willing to send the girl to school, it turns out that the family is rich.
According to magistrate Fu, in Qili Village, except for the two Bai families, the old Zhou family should have the strongest foundation, even stronger than the village head's family.
Where did you see it
Of course it's a house, the blue brick and tile houses are brand new, even the Li Chang's house that I went to see early this morning was not so good.
County magistrate Fu didn't know that Lao Zhou's family was just glamorous, but he had a good impression of Lao Zhou, and he respected him a little more.
After all, he is a capable person, who not only gave birth to so many sons, but also saved such a rich family.
"You two walk with me, we'll talk later." He looked at Master Bai with a smile, and said, "Master Bai, don't you mind adding two more kids?"
Master Bai couldn't wish for more, there is one of his nephews here, he quickly smiled and said: "Welcome very much."
Of course, County Magistrate Fu invited the village chief and Lao Zhoutou to follow him, planning to go to Bai's house to learn more about other situations, after all, he hasn't been to the field to see the situation yet.
It was the first time for Lao Zhou to participate in this kind of meeting, and he followed in a daze.
Both the village head and the village head still have some experience, not to mention the head of the village. In the past, the county magistrate went to the countryside. For small questions that you understand, the village head will have to answer them on your behalf.
So the village chief took advantage of the county magistrate's inattention and quietly said to Lao Zhou: "Uncle Jin, don't be afraid. After a while, the county magistrate will answer the questions. If we don't ask us, we won't talk. There will be no mistakes."
Old Zhou nodded, and glanced nervously at Man Bao who was walking beside the county magistrate.
County Magistrate Fu was asking them about their homework, and was slightly surprised when he learned that they had finished reading The Book of Songs and were reading The Great Learning.
You know, before the Chinese New Year, he contacted the clan, and his favorite cousin was twelve years old this year, and he had just read "University".
County magistrate Fu pondered for a while, and couldn't help but test a few words from "University" while walking.
Both Bai Shanbao and Man Bao can memorize it along the way, and both of them can say the meaning.
Bai Shanbao obviously understood it more thoroughly than Man Bao. When Man Bao explained it, it was as if she was telling a story. Besides, she was a chatterbox, and she was a little guilty at first, so she said it. But halfway through, County Magistrate Fu kept talking to them kindly. , she put her guilty conscience behind her, and when she was asked at this moment, she just kept talking.
County Magistrate Fu, who had already interacted with her, obviously knew that she had a habit of chattering, so he listened to her with a smile, and finally saw her take a breath to change the subject.
I haven't seen him for half a year, and this kid seems to be much more talkative than last year.
Mr. Bai invited County Magistrate Fu to visit Bai’s house. The villagers dispersed after arriving at the entrance of the village. Looking at the group of people walking towards the bridge, the villagers couldn’t help but whispered, “Uncle Jin is really lucky. Was called by the county magistrate to accompany him for a drink."
"For Man Bao's sake?"
"Hey, by the way, listening to that voice, Man Bao and the county magistrate know each other."
"You don't have any memory. Last year when Man Bao and the others went to repair the embankment, they met the county magistrate and had a long talk with the county magistrate when they went to see Thursday. It was winter on Thursday, and I My ears are almost callused."
"When you said that, I remembered. I think our luck is good. Thanks to the embankment built last year, otherwise, if the embankment burst above, our Qili Village would probably be completely flooded."
"Yes, yes, I heard that Xiaoluo Village was flooded, and two people were washed away. We are such a small flood, and two people were washed away. How many people do you think the place where the embankment burst outside had to be washed away? "
The topic gradually deviated, to the north and south.
Over there, County Magistrate Fu and Master Bai, who had just finished their two children's school exams, also focused on their children's education.
In this regard, except for Master Bai and the master secretary, everyone has no common language with him, because the family background is different.
At least they don't know how hard it is to force their nephews to study, because in their opinion, if the children can study at home, the children should be grateful and overjoyed.
