Gu Yuzhu watched this scene not far away, with a faint smile on his face.

Once, she was always worried that they would become like in the book.

But now everything is completely different.

Outside the West Village.

Several carriages and horses stopped at the entrance of the village one after another.

A group of officials in official uniforms of different colors came down from the carriage one after another.

And among them was a middle-aged man who was out of tune with them.

The head of the West Village greeted him here. Seeing so many people in official uniforms coming down, he subconsciously wanted to ask the middle-aged man: "Master Li Chang, these people are..."

"These are all grown-ups who came to see Dongmai." Li Chang, a middle-aged man, said in a low voice.

The village chief was about to answer, but an official in a blue official uniform looked around, frowned and said, "Why don't you even see the shadow of winter wheat?"

The village chief's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said: "My lord, please don't be impatient. It's also the first time we plant winter wheat here. We were afraid that something might go wrong, so we chose a field close to home. We still have to walk two steps to get it. see."

He hurried ahead to lead the way.

Fortunately, after walking for a while, they all saw the winter wheat.

During this period of time, the height of winter wheat can exceed the waist of a person, and it is verdant and growing gratifyingly.

"This batch of winter wheat is growing well." The official in Tsing Yi who was asking the question just now saw the winter wheat, and his cold expression finally improved. He glanced at the wheat, pulled off a wheat very carefully, and put it in the palm of his hand.

"Look, Master Song." He spread his palms in front of the people beside him.

Song Chengye looked down and saw that the wheat seeds were very full. It is not easy for the wheat to grow like this before it is mature.

So he nodded: "This side is doing well."

A relieved smile appeared on the chief's face.

It was not easy to hear these words. He governed several villages. The winter wheat planted in the first few villages was not satisfactory to these adults. Until now, he had never heard such a word of praise. .

To know the satisfaction of these people can determine his promotion and appointment.

He wanted to curry favor with these high-ranking officials who he would never see, so he said cautiously: "It's really hard work for the adults, and the next official's house is just ahead, why don't the adults stay for a light meal before starting the journey?" Let's go."

Several officials looked at each other in blank dismay, but in the end, they all turned their attention to the man in the crimson official uniform.

Song Chengye looked indifferent: "Yes."

Several officials were taken aback for a moment. They thought that the other party's indifferent personality would refuse.

Li Chang greeted them home with a smile on his face.

Previously, he had already ordered his wife to prepare delicious food and wine to greet these distinguished guests.

In a majestic blue brick and tile house, chicken, duck, fish, cattle, sheep and other delicacies are placed on the round table. The utensils for serving the dishes are also high-quality porcelain. The cup exudes a burst of wine aroma, which can be smelled at the door.

As soon as these officials came in, their expressions became a little weird.

I am afraid that this table of dishes will cost a lot of money.

The head of the village really paid a lot of money.

From the corner of his eye, the district chief noticed the moved expressions of these officials, and invited everyone to sit down with a smile on his face.

But who knew, when Song Chengye saw the food, he turned around and left.

And the few officials who followed him followed his footsteps without hesitation.

This incident stunned the head of the village, and he wanted to stop a few people in a panic: "What are you doing, my lords? My lords, my lords..."

But several officials were surrounded by officers and soldiers for protection, so how could it be possible for him to catch up easily.

On the contrary, among the few officials who stayed behind, one of them laughed and said: "I heard that Master Song of the Ministry of Officials came from the countryside. He has been pushed there before, Chief, you don’t need to panic, just sit over and eat.”

The person who spoke was one of the servants of the household department.

The Ministry of Households is in charge of the world's granaries, and they will naturally come to inspect the winter wheat that was only implemented this year.

However, the servant of the household department had money in his family, so he didn't feel that there was nothing wrong with the food on this table, so he sat down calmly.

"Master Song also likes to eat some dry food, let's eat."

On one side is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and on the other is the Minister of the Household Department, neither of them can afford to be offended. His head is covered with sweat, he looks left and right, shakes his sleeves, and finally returns to the house with a disgruntled face, to please the Minister of the Household Department. up.

He cursed secretly in his heart: that Minister of the Ministry of Officials is really ignorant of good and bad.

Song Chengye and the others returned to the carriage. He did not ask the officials to leave immediately. As the head there said, it was really late and it was time to eat. He let the officials who followed him rest on the carriage and eat them. Dry food to carry with you.

He himself took the lead, and the rest of the officials were not dissatisfied.

It's just that several officials were holding dry food, and suddenly smelled the smell of spicy meat, and all of them couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

"Who is eating meat here? Why is it so delicious?" A young master who had just entered the official department swallowed and looked around.

Why is there still "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in this village?

"It seems that someone is grilling meat over there?" Suddenly, another official pointed to a small hill not far away and said.

That scent came from there.

A group of people looked over with swish swish swish eyes.

Without him, it is too fragrant.

And the people on the hill also saw this group of officials who behaved informally.

Er Bao's eyesight was astonishing, and he suddenly yelled strangely: "Mother, Daddy is a lingering ghost, he chased us all the way here!"

Like a rabbit, he jumped to Gu Yuzhu's side, dancing and pointing not far away.

Gu Yuzhu was angry and funny, reached out and tapped his forehead: "What are you talking nonsense about? You don't respect your father so much, be careful if he hears you spanking."

Er Bao muttered: "I'm not afraid of him."

He rolled his eyes and said loudly, "And I'm telling the truth, he's right there."

Suddenly, Niu Niu also said: "Mother, Daddy is really over there."

Gu Yuzhu raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Is it really there?"

She walked to the edge of the hillside, looked over there, and actually saw the man in the crimson official uniform.

The other person's face was so conspicuous that Gu Yuzhu could tell it was him even if they were far away.

Others followed and looked over.

Song Wen stroked his chin and said, "I heard that a few years ago, the household department distributed winter wheat seeds and planted winter wheat. This item was added to the promotion assessment of officials. My elder brother assessed the officials. It is also necessary to inspect it personally, and it is not surprising to appear here."

But it was a coincidence to hit it.
