After death, I became the cannon fodder of the three protagonists

Chapter 99 The Hope of Luoshan Village
Fortunately, this premonition did not come true, otherwise Su Mo would feel bad emotions.

After the carriage stopped, besides Fang Shi, there was also a gentle and elegant man, wearing a robe embroidered with green bamboo, Fang Shi had a very upright attitude, not flattering or flattering.

258 cheerfully issued a reminder: "Master, the host, this is Gu Jinnian's mentor, thank you Wenci."

Su Mo was slightly taken aback, the name sounded familiar.

She thought about it carefully, and it suddenly dawned on her.

Xie Wenci, the mentor who was picked up by three children in the original book and later taught Gu Jinnian.

In the original novel with Gu Jinnian as the protagonist, there are not many descriptions of this person, and the main focus is on Gu Jinnian's studiousness.

But from a few words, we can still know that Xie Wenci is from Shangyang Village, Haiyan County.

In the 24th year of Yuan Yong's examination, he won the honor of juren, but he was unwilling to give up after failing in the final examination, but his luck was not good.

In the 30th year of Yuanyong, because parents forced each other to die, they gave up taking the exam again, married a wife and had children, and the relationship between the husband and wife was weak.

The book also emphasizes that his wife is an orphan girl in Shangyang Village, illiterate, who sacrificed her life to save Xie Wenci's mother in the 28th year of Yuanyong.

Of course, it is not clearly stated in the book that Xie Wenci's mother was forced to marry an orphan girl who could not read a single Chinese character because of this reason.

Withdrawing her thoughts, she looked at the two people who were slowly walking towards her, with a faint smile on her face, saluted with blessings, and said together with the village chief:

"I have seen the magistrate."

When the surrounding villagers heard it, they immediately knelt down in panic and saluted.

"The grass people have seen the county magistrate."

Fang Shi nodded slightly, although his words were gentle, he stood up straight.

"You folks, don't be too polite, get up quickly."

After all, he winked at Eleven who was on the side, and Eleven understood, and walked over to help the villagers up.

The villagers don't know what it means to be inferior to others, they only know that they can't afford to offend the people around the county magistrate, so how dare they let Shi Yi come to help them.

One by one knelt down and kowtowed to thank them, then got up swiftly, stepped back a few steps, and bowed their heads in silence.

The village chief knew that they were uncomfortable standing here, so he gave Chen Cihai a wink and asked him to lead the villagers back.

Fang Shi acted as if he hadn't noticed the village chief's little move, his eyes swept across the village school in front of him, and finally landed on the plaque.

"The village school is well built, and I have a heart."

"Adult praise."

The village chief was flattered, but he didn't take all the credit.

"The village school can be built well, thanks to the generous donation of Su's family, otherwise, the dismissal of the official is just powerless."

Fang Shi withdrew his gaze and said meaningfully: "She looks like her father."

The voice was so soft that the village chief didn't hear it clearly, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just lowered his head and looked at the fallen leaves on the ground.

Su Mo on the side heard it, raised her eyebrows slightly, and roughly guessed his purpose in her heart.

Sure enough, in the next second, Fang Shi shifted the topic to Xie Wenci.

"I thought that your village school was just established, and I was afraid that I would not be able to find a master, so I invited Xie Juren from the Yaozhou government."

Xie Wenci nodded slightly, and his voice was soft, making one feel like a spring breeze.

"I thank Wenci, whose name is Songzhu, from Shangyang Village."

The village head was not surprised, but rather panicked: "This...how can you be..."

"Don't worry too much, I'm just looking at Su Shi's sake, after all, I'm my righteous sister."

Fang Shi interrupted him, and looked at Su Mo with a kind smile, like a bosom brother.

"The tiger father has no dog daughter, I am very pleased that you can be like your father.

Looking back at those years, if it weren't for your father's righteousness, I don't know what the situation is now. "

He seemed to be emotional from the heart, but Su Mo knew very well that it was nothing more than that he was still profitable to him at the moment, or that in the dead of night, a little guilt came to his heart.

Su Mo lowered her eyes slightly, covering the coldness in her eyes.

"Thank you for remembering my father. If my father has a spirit in heaven, he will be happy to see your current scenery."

Fang Shi's expression froze for a moment.

He twitched the corners of his mouth, changed the subject with a stiff smile.

"How is the seven acres of land now?"

This topic moved a little too fast, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in Su Mo's eyes.

"It has been raining for the past few days, and I haven't visited it. The specific situation is still unclear."

Fang Shi straightened his expression, this is a major event related to whether he can return to Beijing.

"Well, let's arrange a place for Xie Juren first, and I will go to the field to have a look in person later."

The village chief hurriedly responded.

The village school is quite big, the front yard is where the teachers are usually taught, and the back is the yard reserved for the master, but they didn't expect Fang Shi to send a master here, and they didn't prepare anything inside.

This meeting can only let Xie Juren live in the village chief's house first, and let Xie Juren move into the village school after buying bedding and daily necessities.

After Xie Wenci settled down, the village head and Su Mo led Fang Shi to the field.

Eleven also wanted to go, but Fang Shi refused and asked him to stay and watch the carriage.

Due to the continuous rain for several days, the road beside the field is full of mud and it is not easy to walk.

Fang Shi didn't know what happened, he fell several times, his clothes were stained with muddy water, and his face was a bit ugly.

The village chief who was walking at the back turned pale with fright, "My lord, do you want me to help you?"

Fang Shi nodded sullenly, he didn't want to turn into a clay figurine later.

Su Mo, who was between the two, silently walked into the field to let the village chief pass, hiding his merit and fame deeply.

With the support of the village head, Fang Shi naturally did not fall, and his gloomy face disappeared when he saw tender grass sprouting from the field.

The village head was even more excited. He didn't care about the dirt on his clothes, and carefully dug out the tender grass, crying.

This is not just grass, but also the hope of their Luoshan Village...

After the three returned, they discussed planting wheat.

"This is a very important matter. The official will send people to find good wheat growers in the nearby villages. I hope you will cooperate more then.

When the dust settles, your rewards will be indispensable. "

Su Mo had no objection.

The successful improvement of saline-alkali land alone is enough for Fang Shi to return to Beijing successfully, and there is no need to add another credit for increasing food production.

The village chief dared not object.

The people in their village haven't farmed for many years. If they take it over, it will ruin the county magistrate's major affairs, and they will die.

That's how it was settled.

After Fang Shi left, the village chief called Su Mo to stop.

"Gu family, you said that the county magistrate sent Xie Juren, and Wang Kuixing, who was appointed before..."

"What happened to Wang Kuixing?"

Su Mo frowned, a little confused.

The village head looked around, and after making sure there were no other people, he said, "Xie Juren is a Juren after all, and he was ordered by the county magistrate to be a teacher."

Su Mo reacted now: "Are you worried that if he finds out that the village school already has a wife, he will be dissatisfied and think about dismissing Wang Kuixing?"

The village chief sighed: "After all, it belongs to the village, and I don't want to be like that.

But if the county magistrate is angered, it will not end well. "

The village head is just, but the official ranks crush people to death. Sometimes, there are some things that he can't let him decide.

"You don't have to think too much, Xie Juren is not such a narrow-minded person."

Su Mo smiled and comforted her: "Besides, you have also seen that there are so many children entering the village school today. I was worried that the village school would not be able to take care of only one teacher."
