Chapter 219 Take the bait!(1/2)

On the other hand, Zhou Sheng followed Ye Zhuohua and muttered.

"I didn't expect that this man surnamed Tao could not help but be scared. Wang Wei's scholars didn't see any pride at all." Zhou Sheng was a little scared when he saw the magistrate of County Tao. He thought it would be a fat man with a big belly. Unexpectedly, an official with a look of Zhou Zheng's face full of scholarly anger.

If he hadn't kneeled down to himself as soon as he came in, Zhou Sheng would have to treat him as a character.

Ye Zhuohua didn't hear Zhou Sheng's words, thinking in his mind that he had just said something about his friendship with the boss of Zhuangzi.

How could I describe it as having some friendship when sleeping together every night?

Gu Yaoyao is wearing a hat when going out now. Naturally no one can see her hair combed. Ye Zhuohua wondered when Gu Yaoyao would say to the person below, she was a serious wife.

Hearing others calling her Miss Gu, Ye Zhuohua felt uncomfortable all over.

It was not until Zhou Sheng got the letter and handed it to Ye Zhuohua to see that Ye Zhuohua came to his senses. When he opened the contents on it, he couldn't help laughing. It was true.

Then the letter was sealed again and returned to Zhou Sheng, "Go, since they want to send it out, it will be as they wish."

The broken line seemed to be about to open soon.

When we arrived outside the county government, there were already people waiting.

"Sir." County Magistrate Tao took a few steps and quickly waited by Ye Zhuohua to get off the sedan chair.

After Zhou Sheng lifted the curtain, Ye Zhuohua came down from his head, but did not walk forward, and then looked at the sedan chair behind him.

Zhou Sheng knew what to do and waited for Gu Yaoyao and the others to come down after he left.

When entering, Lord Tao glanced back and said, "I wonder what the two girls are?"

Since Ye Zhuohua has come in, Lord Tao wants to settle them in the mansion to rest, so he asks about Gu Yaoyao and the others' identities.

How to deal with the good amount?

After all, it seems that Ye Zhuohua is quite fond of them.

Ye Zhuohua looked back and said, "Call them Miss Gu and Miss Liu."

"The official understands." After saying that, the magistrate Tao called out to the person behind him, "Go and invite your wife and arrange two girls well."

Since Ye Zhuohua asked to call him a girl, he was not a wife.

But if you like this, you have a lower status than a wife and a higher status than a servant, then you should be a concubine and you cannot neglect it.

However, Ye Zhuohua didn't explain clearly, so he can only call him a girl for the time being.

Ye Zhuohua nodded and followed Lord Tao to the front hall. As soon as he entered, he would first check the official documents.

The lady in the inner courtyard heard the report from the head of the head and hurriedly came out, "That's right, Miss Gu and Miss Liu?" A decent lady came towards her.

It has a long face and a little small eyes, so that people look at it and feel that the other person is a bit mean.

"Madam." Gu Yaoyao met the other party with Pingli.

Mrs. Tao reached out and grabbed Gu Yaoyao, "This girl from the capital will know the etiquette."

He smiled and welcomed the person into the house.

After sitting down, Mrs. Tao’s first words were about where she lived. Gu Yaoyao lived next door to Ye Zhuohua, so she could have a look after her.

Gu Yaoyao instantly understood her thoughts, but she didn't say anything else, "Thank you, Madam."

Seeing Gu Yaoyao's face calm, Mrs. Tao thought that they should have guessed correctly, "In this way, I won't bother the girl to rest. If there is anything, let the lower one tell me that it is."

After sending the person away, Gu Yaoyao led Xia Liu to look at the room.

According to what they know, Pingcheng is rich and the magistrate of Pingcheng County is a corrupt official, but this room is different from what they think. On the surface, the ornaments are somewhat particular in layout, and it seems to have a vague feeling, but if you look closely, these are mostly imitations.

Moreover, the surface of the table should be a sandalwood table. Gu Yaoyao touched it with her hands. Just by touching it, you can tell that this is connected, and the core inside is probably ordinary pine.

This Pingcheng County Magistrate is quite interesting.

"Two girls." Just as they were thinking, someone came in from below to report that Mrs. Tao asked the kitchen to prepare meals for them, and asked them what they had to eat?

Gu Yaoyao thought about it and said, "Don't eat spicy food, don't eat sweet food. There is no taboo for the others."

The girl responded and quickly stepped out.

"What did the girl find?" Xia Liu asked.

Gu Yaoyao shook her head gently, "I didn't find anything, I just wanted some people to get some news."

"By the way, can someone be sent over from the inn?" After sitting down again, Gu Yaoyao asked.

Xia Liu nodded. When he came in, Zhou Sheng gave her a letter, which he had not had time to give to Gu Yaoyao.

Gu Yaoyao opened it and looked at it. Jia Conghai was indeed quick. The words on it were written very carefully, and even if he thought of any countermeasures he might encounter during the process.

Gu Yaoyao nodded, "Wait until tomorrow, I will pass on this letter and let inns in various places prepare first."

After the explanation, he looked up and asked to look at Xia Liu, "Let Zhou Sheng find the background of the Tao Mansion in a while and give me a look."

Xia Liu responded and stood outside and called out.

Soon, the things arrived at Gu Yaoyao's hands.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Tao was the second wife. She was carried up less than two months after her original wife's death. However, the second wife had no children and only pulled the two girls left by the original wife's wife.

A man who is now married and becomes an aunt in the prefect's residence.

The other one, waiting for the name of the mother-in-law, is said to have been married to someone when he was a child, but now the family left Pingcheng during the disaster year, and there has been no news yet.

Therefore, the two girls have not yet got married.

After reading it, Gu Yaoyao put the booklet in the stove and burned it.

Gu Yaoyao stayed here all day, and when he was waiting at night, Ye Zhuohua returned to the house. After listening to the movement, Gu Yaoyao walked over from him.

"Why is it so late to come back?" Gu Yaoyao said casually.

Because Ye Zhuohua did not need to serve the county magistrate's office, the candlelight in the room became dark, so Gu Yaoyao tilted the candlelight more.

Ye Zhuohua snorted, "Do you know that the yamen master can't read a single word."

In other words, I am afraid that it is this master, so they bought the officials.

Because the difference is too small and the money is used, I guess it is only a little bit of land in the family who bought such a place for his stupid son.

At least not to mention it, he is considered a yamen person.

Ye Zhuohua was not surprised. He knew it well, but there was such a master in the yamen, but the account books of the yamen were written properly, which was nothing wrong.

If you make fake accounts so seamlessly, you must be a talent.

Just as he was talking to Gu Yaoyao, the subordinate reported that it was the second girl of the Tao family who asked for a meeting.

Gu Yaoyao narrowed his eyes slightly, then he took Ye Zhuohua and let someone come in.

Ye Zhuohua looked at Gu Yaoyao with dissatisfaction. At this time, a girl who was not married asked to see him. When she thought about it, she knew that she must have ulterior motives.

But Gu Yaoyao had already spoken, and Ye Zhuohua had no choice but to let her go.

Soon, after getting the news, he brought the second girl in.

Now that the elder sister is married, she is now the only junior in the Pingcheng County Magistrate's Mansion. Even her stepmother's subordinates are hard to bear, but she can't do too much.

But I didn't expect that I could pass so badly.

Not to mention the style of the clothes, they looked a little small, and when the arms were stretched out, their wrists were exposed, and the shoes under their feet were directly exposed.

On the head, I looked like it was a copper hairpin to tie my hair.

The whole person is naturally thin and a little distorted.

"I have met the adults, Miss Gu." After coming, I was very respectful.

She knelt down and kowtowed.

When you kowtow, fold your hands and make a handful of peaches, put them in front of you, and knock your head on your hands.

This posture should be used to pay homage to gods and Buddhas on weekdays.

Gu Yaoyao quickly helped the person up, "Girl is exempt from gifts."

Although she should respect Ye Zhuohua, there is no need to perform such a great ceremony.

"Thank you Miss Gu." The second girl stood up and stood aside.

Just the hands are trembling all the time.

Moreover, I seemed to be hesitating, not knowing whether to press the right hand with the left hand or the left hand with the right hand when standing, and constantly change positions when placed in front of me.

After a long time, I slowly raised my head, "I heard that Miss Gu was feeling uncomfortable, so I came abruptly and asked Miss Gu for Ping An's pulse."

"Miss Two knows medical skills?" Gu Yaoyao raised her eyebrows slightly. Perhaps because she was rushing to the road, she consumed less food today, and she deliberately pretended to be uncomfortable and felt disgusted for a few times.

She thought that the first person to express her opinion was the second wife, but she didn't expect that the second girl would get the news first.

"I know a little about the fur." ​​The second girl smiled embarrassedly, "I used to be sick, so I learned some from the barefoot doctor."

The county magistrate's yamen naturally did not have the qualifications to support the government doctor, so they mostly hired doctors from outside.

Gu Yaoyao nodded, "Then, I'm going to have to do the second girl."

He was not polite and sat on the chair next to him. The second girl looked at Ye Zhuohua who was sitting in the chair, and without waiting for Ye Zhuohua to explain, she lowered her head and sat in front of Gu Yaoyao.
