Chapter 239 Letter (5)
As soon as the village chief Li Niu said this, the worry on his face became more serious. Although his village is fine, there are some dirty hands and feet. If the people in the town are caught clean, will those officials come here? Catch people!

"Will this implicate Murakami? Now is a sensitive period. I don't know if the county magistrate will arrest people here just because he's lost his mind!" Mu Lian was also worried about this. The county magistrate above is simply a dizzy man. If there was peace and prosperity, he might stay in that county government office and be an official with no merit or merit. But now the world is in chaos. If you want to make meritorious deeds at the right time, then you have to manage the scope of your own management well.

"Isn't it? Uncle is worried about this matter. Most of the people walking in the village are also afraid of this matter. Otherwise, why would they leave in such a hurry and run to other towns! Uncle also wants to understand. In a few days, uncle will go to inquire, if something like this really happens, we have to be on our guard." Li Niu, the village chief, patted his thigh and said.

Strange to say, Li Niu, the village head, usually doesn't like to talk about these things with others, but when he meets Mulian, he feels the desire to talk. speak out.

"Uncle, how about this, when you go, I will ask Gastrodia to accompany you, after all, it is really messy now, with someone like Gastrodia accompanying you, my aunt and I can rest assured!" Mulian smiled Li Niu, the village head, did not refuse this suggestion, and readily agreed, because he also knew that being polite is the most useless thing at this time.

When Li Niu, the village chief, went to inquire about the matter, Mulian ordered Gastrodia to go with him, and asked him to take good care of Li Niu, the village chief, and never let anything happen to him. Gastrodia heard Mulian's order, Naturally, he patted his chest to assure.

Village head Li Niu was driving an ox cart, looking at the tall and strong Gastrodia elata sitting behind him, he felt a lot more confidence in his heart, and the shout of driving was louder.Mu Lian looked at the carriage they left, and put away the smile on her face after entering the yard. Her eyes were also darkened now. That guy Lin Lang didn't want to say anything. According to him, after all, he He didn't stay in the capital, so he didn't know about the palace.

Time passed by, and when the village chief Li Niu and Gastrodia came back, they went straight to Mulian's house. Mulian, who had been staying in the house, saw them coming back, and hurriedly poured water for them to drink, and then it was okay. He asked calmly, "Uncle, what's the matter, did you get any news?"

The village chief Li Niu drank the water, wiped his mouth and replied: "Hey, I have asked about sesame seeds. Those people in the town have mouths as tight as clam shells. How can they say anything?" The situation, anyway, judging by their faces, it must be bad. Well, let’s just talk about it. Uncle will go back first. If you want to ask more carefully, you can ask Gastrodia. He is also listening. Your aunt must be at home Hurry up!"

When Mulian heard what he said, she immediately sent him out of the yard.

Seeing her coming back, Tianma immediately told what she had inquired about: "I really didn't inquire about anything, just like what the old man said just now. I couldn't inquire about anything, so I knew the atmosphere in the town was very tense. I I took a look, except for some necessary stores, all other stores are closed, and I saw that many people are starting to stock up, miss, do you think we have to start shopping too. "

Mu Lian nodded, and replied seriously: "I've already done this again. The vegetables harvested a few days ago will be stored, but after hearing what you said, I think we need to dig a cellar. Things must be stored in the cellar." Tian Ma nodded when she heard her words, and felt that she was quite right.

"Then when are we going to start doing it? The current situation is already so bad." Tian Ma asked with a spare head.

Mulian glanced at him with a smile, and then replied very earnestly: "I will start to do it tomorrow, otherwise I will be caught up in other things. Now that I know the current situation, I can't procrastinate any longer." " Gastrodia immediately nodded when she heard Mulian's words.

Not long after lunch, an official came to the door. When the nearby villagers saw an official coming to Mu Lian's house, they all stood outside pointing and whispering what they guessed.

"Could it be that someone in Miss Lian's family committed something, otherwise why would there be an official sent!"

"No way, girl Lian is a good girl, you can't say that about her." Some of the more sensible villagers said something fair, but some people who were afraid of chaos in the world twisted their mouths and retorted: "You How do you know that girl Lian is a good girl, whether you are her mother or her father, it's not so easy to guess, I guess something happened."

As soon as the words on this side fell, the official came out of the yard with a smile. Mulian took a hundred copper coins and put them in a bag, then handed them to him, and expressed her gratitude warmly. I put the bag in my hand, although there are not many, but it is not bad.

"Okay, then I'll go back and report first." The official put the bag in his sleeve and said goodbye.

Mu Lian smiled and nodded: "Then official, please go slowly, you can come here for tea when you have time."

Seeing that Mulian respected him so much, the official was naturally quite satisfied. This person wants to save face wherever he goes. Originally, he thought that he would go to such a rural place to deliver the letter, so he secretly lost his temper. For yourself, this is also a beautiful job.

Mu Lian watched the officer get on the horse and gallop on the path, and then closed the courtyard door to isolate the villagers who watched the fun outside. Those villagers who said good things, when they saw the closed courtyard door, immediately satirized the person who said bad things. Said: "It's only you who have high eyesight and low abilities, who say such things. Have you seen that there must be something good about the happy look of that official!"

When the person who said bad things heard his words, his face turned red and then turned pale, and he ran away in a desperate manner, while the villagers who expressed their neutrality were all curious about what the official sent or brought. What about the message!
