Chapter 456 Who is the county head
Lu Jinfu ordered a few yamen servants who looked very upright, plus the fat and skinny people who had been to Xiajia Village didn't need cars and sedan chairs, so they just rode out of the county yamen, and they didn't care about horsepower along the way, rushing to Xia Home village ran away.

When I arrived at Xiajia Village, the people in Xiajia Village were still leisurely, no, they were busy farming.

February is the time for planting, how can it be leisurely.

As soon as Lu Jinfu arrived at Xiajia Village, seeing what everyone was doing, he immediately got angry, and shouted at the yamen servants below: "Go and let them wash their ankles, and hurry to meet the county lord and the captain of Qingche!" .”

The people of Xiajia Village heard that the county magistrate had come, but they didn't dare to neglect, especially Xia Zhengyuan, who was the village chief, even if he cared about the things in the field, he could only quickly wash off the dirt on his hands and feet. Trot to the county magistrate.

"Look at you, do you look like you are welcoming the county lord and Captain Qingche in this outfit? You don't want to change your clothes yet." Lu Jinfu scolded Xia Zhengyuan when he saw him.

"My lord, the biggest one in our county is you. Isn't that the county magistrate also you? What other magistrate is there?" Xia Zhengyuan went in without knowing it, and carefully paid a gift, looking at the magistrate and said.

"Stupid thing, what I'm talking about is the county lord, which is the title of the imperial court, not the lord of a county! Also, what are you talking about? Go back and change into decent clothes, and tell everyone in your village to Go change into your best clothes, and then go with me to meet the county head and Captain Qingche!"

"The county lord appointed by the imperial court, what is that? Is it big?" Xia Zhengyuan still didn't understand, and asked again cautiously with a smile.

"Big, most of them, that's a nobleman of the imperial court! In terms of rank alone, he's one level higher than the Governor of Ningzhou Prefecture. Do you think he's big?" Lu Jinfu said with an annoyed look at Xia Zhengyuan.

"But, this nobleman of the imperial court, what are you doing here in this remote mountain village? My lord, are you making a mistake?" Xia Zhengyuan looked at Lu Jinfu and asked boldly.

If it weren't for Xia Zhengyuan being a relative of the county lord, I'm afraid Lu Jinfu would order someone to give him a water and fire stick to let him know how powerful it is, but he is eager to curry favor with the county lord, but he dares not meet anyone and curry favor. The county lord, just beat up the county lord's family members, so even though his heart was already filled with anger, Lu Jinfu could only reluctantly shout: "The county lord came out from your village, this time she brought My younger brother came back to visit her relatives, why did you say she came to your mountain village?"

When Xia Zhengyuan heard it, he was a little dazed, blinked his eyes several times, and finally murmured: "My lord, you are talking about green bamboo and green shirt, right?"

"Aren't they the ones? How long do you want ink?" Lu Jinfu said to Xia Zhengyuan angrily.

At this moment, Xia Zhengyuan was really dumbfounded, but he couldn't help but said immediately: "Yes, yes, it's a little confused, isn't this green bamboo and green shirt from our Xiajia Village? Hey, this is for our Xia family." The head of the village is embarrassed, please sit down for a while, and the younger ones will immediately inform the people in the village."

As he said that, Xia Zhengyuan saluted Lu Jinfu and ran into the village, shouting as he ran, "Everyone stop working, hurry up, everyone go home and change into new clothes, women prepare dinner immediately, men put After the table is set up, it is in the dam in front of the ancestral hall, and all the tables, chairs and benches in the village have been moved there, a big event has happened in our Xiajia Village, what a great event!"

"Dasheng Dasheng, what about you, go back quickly and get the gong, and you must be notified of the ups and downs. Also, you go back and change my clothes, and I will wear what your mother made for you, for engagement. That new suit."

Xia Zhengyuan shouted, while running towards the house, before he ran home, Mrs. Du came out of the yard, and shouted at Xia Zhengyuan: "Master, what are you shouting for? What a happy event?"

"The green bamboo and green shirt are back, do you think it's a big happy event?" Xia Zhengyuan said to Mrs. Du with a smile that couldn't close his mouth.

"Hey, isn't it a happy event? Where are they? I'll go to meet them too." Hearing Xia Zhengyuan's words, Du Shi slapped his thigh and said with a smile.

"Why are you going to meet him? He is returning home now, and the county magistrates are here. You should take the women in the village to prepare dinner quickly." Xia Zhengyuan said, and ran into the yard.

"I'm her aunt. No matter how she returns home, what if I go to greet her?" Du Shi said happily, and when she turned around, she saw Xia Zhengyuan's feet and shouted quickly: "Hey, master, your shoes Woolen cloth?"

It turned out that after running for so long, Xia Zhengyuan even lost one of his shoes.

"I don't know, go and help me find a new pair. I'm busy changing clothes." Xia Zhengyuan said, and he was already in the room.

"Are you so happy?" Du Shi spat, but immediately laughed, and went to help Xia Zhengyuan find shoes.

After Xia Zhengyuan changed his clothes, Mrs. Du said: "By the way, the head of the house, what are you going to do for dinner? We don't even have much rations when we are out of stock."

Xia Zhengyuan didn't even think about it, and said directly: "White rice and white noodles, I'm going to get someone to kill our pigs, and kill a few more chickens, so that everyone can make it together. The richer the better, the better."

"Come together, it's easy for you to say, will people be willing?" Du pursed his lips, and then said: "Also, it's fine if you let me kill chickens. Anyway, when Qingzhu comes back, I'm willing to give up a few chickens." Yes, but our pigs, let’s forget about it, they were raised and killed when they were born, and now the pigs are still young, so they don’t have much meat after killing them, and besides, pork can’t be kept until then.”

"You stupid woman, what is a pig? You don't know. Qingzhu and Qingshan have become high-ranking officials. After they come back, can we still get less benefits from us? Besides, even if she doesn't give something , can help us transfer the land to the name of Qingshan, the land rent will be much less, so don’t be so verbose, hurry up and get someone to kill the pig.”

"Is there such a good thing?" Mrs. Du grabbed Xia Zhengyuan and asked.

Xia Zhengyuan said to Mrs. Du: "Of course there is. Hurry up and prepare. For this kind of thing, whoever takes the lead will catch Qingzhu's eyes the most. If you don't prepare, the third uncle and the others will take the lead later. I see who you will blame when the time comes."

"That's a good idea. I'll ask someone to kill the pig. Hey, I'd better let Dasheng go. His young man has quick legs and he's late, so I'll let him go." Hearing this, Mrs. Du became more happy and didn't feel sorry for her family. There are no pigs raised yet.

"Dasheng is notifying the others. When he comes back in a while, you let him go and remind him to run faster." Xia Zhengyuan said while planning to go out.

"Success." Du Shi nodded and said.
