Compared with the tense atmosphere of the government office, the back house is relaxed and pleasant.

Everyone had a smile on their faces because they had started preparing the sticky bean buns today but had never made time.

The sticky bean buns fresh out of the pan are steaming hot, uniform in size, and have an attractive aroma.

"Mom, this is what my father will have for dinner. You can give it to him." Li Yue suggested.

During this period, Li Hui’s lunch and dinner were delivered at home.

There are four dishes and one soup every day, two meat and two vegetarian dishes, and nothing is the same for three days.

If you stay up late and work overtime, you must eat exquisitely, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it.

Although Li Hui goes home every day, he comes back too late and has no time to chat.Cheng Xue understood what the child meant, flicked her forehead, and said "naughty" lovingly, and the mother and daughter smiled knowingly.

If you eat too much sticky stuff, your stomach will feel uncomfortable.So bean buns must be served with sauerkraut.Since she went to deliver the food, she fried the sauerkraut.

Stir-fry the pork belly until the fat is released, then add the sauerkraut that has been squeezed out of the water and stir-fry quickly, then add the seasonings and soaked vermicelli.

If it's just a normal meal, sticky bean buns are still a new thing. Bring some more for others to try.

"Bai Shao has packed all the bean buns. We can't just give them to the master. There are so many people in the yamen."

"Yes."

After Bai Shao finished speaking, she went to get the food box again.

After all the food was packed, Cheng Xue took Shunxi and Dexi to the front to deliver the food.

After passing through the Moon Gate, you can see that all the rooms in the Yamen are brightly lit.In order to seal the seal before the Lunar New Year and to have a relaxed start to the new year, these people worked really hard.

The concierge heard the sound and came out. Wen Xi walked up to him in a few steps, bowed his hands and saluted——

"Madam, you are here."

"I made some steamed sticky bean buns at home, and I was thinking of giving some to everyone. How are you busy in there?"

Wen Xi shook his head, turned around and walked to the door to report.

I had just come out to relieve myself when I heard the quarrels in the room and the loud voice of the master. Of course, I also heard about Fan Chengfang's "grain deduction system".

If it were him, he would also be violent. The people's life is already very difficult, so they can be bullied softly, what the hell!
Cheng Xue didn't know what had just happened in the room, so she stood there and waited until Li Hui came out of the room with a dark face.

"What's wrong? Who did you quarrel with?"

Facing his wife's concern, Li Hui nodded without concealment.

"I had a little quarrel with Fan Tongzhi. It's okay. It's so cold. Why did you come here? You're probably freezing."

As he spoke, he took the food box from her hand and held the person in his arms with the other hand.

There were only a few steps back and forth, but his concern was very useful to her.

The couple entered the house side by side, and the atmosphere in the house was obviously different.

Fan Chengfang pursed his lips tightly, staring at the couple with his eyes, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

He was involved in Gu Qingyan's confusion when he was in office, and he also meddle with it. But with Gu Qingyan's arrest, all the charges were pinned on him, and Fan Chengfang took care of himself without any problems.But his impulsiveness just now seemed to have ruined all his efforts.As if moving in his own home, Cheng Xue directed Shunxi, Dexi, and Wenxi to merge the tables and put the bean buns and pickled vegetables on top.

"Speaking of it, it's not a rare thing. Everyone just eats it fresh. Let's eat it while it's hot. Fan Tongzhi also comes to eat some. Don't be angry. In government affairs, it is inevitable that there will be disagreements. Our master is a You are impatient, you are simple and want to let the people live a stable life, please bear with me."

"Mrs. Li's words made Mr. Fan confused. Mr. Li is anxious for the people to live a stable life. Mr. Fan would be too ignorant if he was serious."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Jue shook his head.Others looked at Fan Chengfang like a fool, thinking he was a weirdo.

Who doesn't know that Mrs. Li's words sound like humility, but in fact they are just giving Fan Chengfang a step up. Just take advantage of the situation. What are you going to do with Qiao?

Li Hui looked at Fan Chengfang in amusement, who was "running ahead with his mouth and chasing after him with his brain", sneered twice and said:

"Fan Tongzhi hasn't clarified my doubts yet. Please tell me as soon as possible. I have to eat."

After saying that, he lifted up his robe and sat down, picking up the chopsticks to pick up the bean buns.He wasn't too enthusiastic about the stuff, but it was still refreshing to eat once in a while.

Cheng Xue didn't stay long. She took out all the contents of the food box and took the others away.As for the quarrel between Fan Chengfang and Li Hui, she didn't take it to heart at all.Anyway, there aren't many people who can make Li Hui angry, and that kid has never wronged him, so he might do something if he gets really anxious.

Shen Jue came back after sending Cheng Xue and others away. The door closed again and Li Hui pointed at the chair.

"Everyone sit down and eat quickly. There is still work to be done after eating. Everyone has to work harder. After the collection is completed, it will be handed over to the court. The only hard nut left before the year is to divide the land."

"Yes."

Everyone agreed and spontaneously found a place to sit down.

Anyone who can work in the government office is not a fool.Even before, he was not convinced by Li Hui and did not listen to him.But they opposed the suppression of bandits, and they succeeded.We opposed inspections, but they also carried out inspections.It is imperative for people to oppose the division of land.

If you act like this, why bother?He who knows the current affairs is a hero!

Fan Chengfang looked at the people who usually hung around behind him, but treated him like this today, and finally understood the formality.

He walked forward, cupped his hands, bowed deeply, and said:
"I hope Mr. Li can forgive me. It's my fault that I'm short-sighted and stick to the rules. Everything is my fault."

That's it, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. If you can't defeat others, just give in and resign after the year.

I thought Li Hui would hold on to him, but he didn’t expect——

"Master Fan, don't say that. I am just a young man and am anxious. Master Fan has been working hard these days and abiding by the rules and etiquette. I see it in my eyes and bear it in my heart. The imperial court allocates funds to schools and academies in various states every year. Ours has always been in vain. Tomorrow, Mr. Fan Fan and the household official Bai Dianli will go to the academy and the school to take a look and record what is missing. The school and the academy must start classes after the year."

Fan Chengfang still wanted to sing the opposite, but this time his brain caught up with his mouth in time, making him nod obediently.

The official in charge of the household, Bai Dianli, was anxious at the moment, but he didn't dare to say anything due to the situation, so he could only act anxiously.This Tongzhi master doesn’t refute when he should refute, and refutes blindly when he shouldn’t refute.

Li Hui didn't know Bai Dianli's psychological activities, but seeing Fan Chengfang readily agree, he stood up and walked over.

"In that case, Mr. Fan and Bai Dianli should go back first. Schools and academies are not trivial matters. We will start working on them tomorrow. If you plan to go to other counties for inspection, you should report to the official business. I didn't say anything here."

When Fan Chengfang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Going on a business trip is profitable. If you go on a business trip before the year, you will have money for the New Year.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Li for your generosity. I will do my best to live up to your cultivation."

"It's easy to say, go back and rest." (End of Chapter)
