291: Killing chickens without monkeys [Happy New Year](1/2)
Regarding wanting to kill chickens to scare monkeys, she sharpened her knife but found that there were only chickens and no monkeys in the henhouse. Shen Tang was not ignorant of the risks, but now she had to take action. She had to get enough supplies to revitalize the dead city of Fugu. .
Fugu City is not alive——
Those who are going to die are not only the original natives of Fugu City, but also the old, weak, women and children brought by Shen Tang from Sibao County!
The chickens in the chicken coop are undoubtedly the biggest obstacle to the rebirth of Fugu City.
Bloated, cruel, violent, and full of desires.
It is also a sword that threatens Shen Tang's life.
Even though the sword was rusty and not sharp in her opinion, she couldn't sleep at night unless it was completely broken!
However, several officials in Fugu City did not understand these thoughts. Not only did they not understand, they even thought that Shen Tang could not wait to hug the lap of the local snake the next day. Such a flattering villain's behavior cost Shen Tang three months of monthly salary out of his own pocket. The goodwill brought by it has been reduced by half, and everyone is mentally preparing to "migrate" as soon as possible.
People, even if they don’t steam steamed buns, they still have to fight for it.
Shen Tang likes to live with them in a nest of snakes and rats, so go ahead, but they don't want to become the minions of the Zhang family. In the past few years, they have been humiliated and humiliated by them!
Thinking this way in my heart, I still gave him face.
Shen Tang asked them to present Zhang's name card in her name.
The head of the Zhang family raised his eyebrows contemptuously after receiving the name card: "Heyin County Governor Shen Tang Youli worships... What is the origin of this Shen Youli? But he is a good person. He knew that he was coming to the door the second day he came. It was better than before. A few are more sensible..."
If the military workshop in the mountain had not been looted, and the news of the mine had been exposed, which aroused the fear and covetousness of other companies, which in turn caused the Zhang family to be in a state of turmoil and not dare to make any big moves, the head of the Zhang family would have received this invitation from Shen Tang. Happy.
At this time, I felt a little upset.
"...too lazy to meet."
Be prepared to have people turn down the invitation.
But before he could continue the instructions, he made a move.
The head of the Zhang family remembered another thing.
Changed his words: "Forget it, just accept it."
This little-known Shen Youli was personally appointed by the tyrant Zheng Qiao. Who knows what kind of background he has? It’s not easy to offend him now. Find out the details before making plans. There was a rumor earlier that Wu Xian of the Tianhai Wu family is also coveting him. He Yin.
With Shen Tang watching, it would be difficult for Wu Zhaode to interfere.
Compared with Wu Xian (Wu Zhaode), a talented scholar with several generations of illustrious ancestors and a well-established family background, Shen Tang is naturally easier to handle. When people come to show their kindness, he can't refuse to give them any face...
besides--
"Does this Governor Shen have any contact with anyone?"
The visitor replied: "No."
The head of the Zhang family was surprised: "Oh?"
He thought that Shen Tang would also vote for other companies. After all, the Zhang family was not the only one in Heyin. However, it did make him feel much better to show his kindness to Zhang family first. He initially treated Shen Tang The impression is just above the passing line.
Order your servants to prepare for the guests.
His wife said: "I heard that this county governor is very young, only twelve or thirteen years old. He has the face of a good girl and is very pretty."
The head of the Zhang family knew what she wanted to say when he heard her words. He glanced at her and snorted noncommittally.
Mrs. Zhang: "No?"
Head of the Zhang family: "Of course not! This Shen Youli is not a member of an aristocratic family, so don't use your imagination."
The current Mrs. Zhang is not the first wife’s direct wife, but the second wife of the Zhang family’s head after the first wife had difficulty in giving birth to a daughter. The first wife’s family background was good, and he was supposed to be a high-ranking wife. However, the father-in-law’s family suffered due to the war, and the family only had one niece left. Zhang The head of the family managed the funeral of his father-in-law, raised orphans, and secretly devoured the father-in-law's family's huge wealth, turning the family around in one fell swoop.
Compared with the rigid character of his first wife who was always "upright and admonishing" him, he prefers his current step-in-law.
She is good at everything, but she is not happy with the daughter left behind by her first wife, and her living expenses are often squandered. If the head of the Zhang family had not covered her up, the outside world would have spread her reputation for being unkind. She also used her crooked brains to try to get rid of her. This daughter is getting married...
It's not that the head of the Zhang family has any conscience, or that there is some kind of father-daughter relationship, it's just that he looks down on Shen Tang. The name card Shen Tang handed over didn't say where he was born, but he was probably from a commoner, where Worthy of a daughter from a noble family?
Even if it's just his unloved daughter.
Therefore, he secretly warned Mrs. Zhang to give up this crooked idea, and there was no need to do this if she wanted to marry off the eldest lady.
Mrs. Zhang twisted the handkerchief with her fingers.
"He is also a county guard after all..."
The head of the Zhang family disdainfully said: "County guard? Although Shen Youli is the county guard, his name sounds good, but it also depends on where he is. In this place of Heyin, it is this person's turn to speak?" When a eldest lady gets married, she cannot afford to lose this man."
Just as he was talking, the brother of the head of the Zhang family arrived.
"Eldest brother is planning to marry his daughter?"
Before seeing the person, I heard the joke first.
"Second uncle is here." Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "We are talking about the eldest lady. She will have hairpins in two years. If we don't meet her husband's family, I am afraid that all the young talents of the right age have been selected, and there will be no chance of her. With her. Your brother said, your brother shouldn't do it."
"Oh? This is brother's fault.
"There is a new county guard in Fugu City. When she heard that she was about the same age, she wanted to tell her to the eldest lady. What does she know from a womanly family? She comes from a poor family - hmph! Is she worthy?"
How old is Ha Yin?
How many of the previous governors of Ha Yin County were killed?
The head of the Zhang family really didn't take Shen Tang seriously.
If it weren't for Zheng Qiao's appointment, Zhang's family suffered heavy losses from the army not long ago. He really didn't want to see Shen Tang. Even if he did, he would have to wait three to five days to see whether he wanted to see her or not.
The head of the family's brother heard this and agreed quite a bit.
Seeing that her plan was about to fail, Mrs. Zhang felt a little uncomfortable, so she changed the subject and asked: "I just saw that my second uncle's face was rosy, but is there another child in the family?"
This uncle is not averse to meat or vegetarian food.
I don’t know how many farm girls I have ruined over the years.
It was not enough to stuff more than 20 concubines in the backyard. All the maids serving in the house were touched. Even the maids around the old lady were not spared. She also liked pleasure, indulged in sensuality, and used beauty paper and beauty bowls. Beauty pot.
Previously, when an epidemic broke out in the villages under Heyin's jurisdiction, he took the opportunity to coax the sons and daughters of common people to have fun.
I think my husband is also a talented person, but this brother looks like the old lady had an affair with her father-in-law behind her back. She has a fat head and big ears, a lot of flesh on her face, and fierce eyebrows. She looks like a mountain pig that has become a spirit. Sometimes the way she looks at her is wrong.
Mrs. Zhang was extremely disgusted.
The head of the family brother said: "That's not the case. I found a good thing recently and brought it to show to my eldest brother."
The head of the Zhang family is not very interested in this.
I asked casually: "What?"
The head brother chuckled.
The head of the Zhang family knew at the first glance that his brother had found a beautiful woman. Although his brother was a bastard, he was good at this and acted generously. What's so good about him? He was the first brother that came to mind. However, today he was really No time to appreciate beauty.
The head of the family's brother asked: "Why?"
Head of the Zhang family: "The governor of Heyin County is coming."
What you say comes from what you say.
Not long after it got dark, servants came in to report.
The head of the Zhang family sneered: "This is coming."
The head of the family's brother has no respect or fear for the so-called county governor. He has a concubine in his backyard who was given by a certain county governor. The two of them called themselves brothers together. After hearing this, he said: "I want to take a look at this new county governor." Shou, who is this person from?"
Not long after, the servants led the governor of Heyin in.
The head of the Zhang family symbolically went out a few steps to greet him.
I was a little startled when I saw the person coming.
He knew that Shen Tang was very young, but only those who really saw how young would know, especially when there was a man standing behind him who was nearly two meters tall, with a tall body, a strong physique, wide shoulders and a narrow waist, and strong muscles in his limbs. Han Gongshu Wu!
He gave a salute: "I have met Mr. Shen."
Shen Tang returned the gift with his hands raised: "Master Zhang, it's a pleasure to meet you."
She was keenly aware of the sight that made her feel uncomfortable. She followed it secretly and saw a stalwart middle-aged man with fat head and big ears. There was a faint glimmer of greed in his eyes, and his sticky and foul-smelling sight almost stuck to her face.
This person: "Shen Jun is so young."
Shen Tang asked quietly: "Who is this?"
The head of the Zhang family led Shen Tang in, and the guests and hosts took their seats.
He said: "My brother."
When Shen Tang heard this, his eyes lit up.
Oh, what a coincidence.
This person's reputation can be described as "like thunder".
Shen Tang had been thinking about it for a while, but he didn't expect to see it. It was as Bai Su said, like a mountain pig turning into a spirit.
This "mountain pig spirit" ignored the etiquette, looked at Shen Tang's beautiful and handsome face, and said: "If it weren't for the Wenxin monogram on Mr. Shen's waist and his elegant style, I would have thought that Mr. Shen was a fairy from heaven who came down to earth... I would venture to say so. Ask, is Mr. Shen married?"
Shen Tang: "...Nothing."
