Farmer's Cannon Fodder: Listen to me, the whole family, change the plot

The young official knew how misleading his words were, so he stood by the horse, with his arms folded across his chest and a smile on his face, waiting for the people inside to come out and make a fool of themselves.

He was just a small fry in the yamen, no one could compare to him, and he couldn't show off his power.

But in front of these ordinary people, he can still show off his power as an official.

After all, people are afraid of officials!

As for the fact that the officer who was his leader had been sent to the clinic, he didn't care about the leader's life or whether he could be saved.

He can only get promoted if there is no one above him!

Right now, he just wanted to see the changes in facial expressions and the inner collapse of this family who was destined to be fooled by him.

Old Mrs. Su and Old Man Su came out hand in hand. It wasn't because the couple had a good relationship, but because one of them had a lame leg and the other was still sick. If they didn't hold hands and support each other, they would definitely fall.

"Our Xigen has become an official?" When Old Lady Su saw the young official, she walked quickly forward, her face full of surprise and the hope of the young official's affirmation again.

Old Man Su staggered due to Old Lady Su's footsteps and had to lean on his crutches to avoid falling.

If this had happened in the past, he would have definitely talked to Old Lady Su about it, but now, unlike in the past, the most important thing right now was to confirm whether his youngest son had really become an official, so he did not bother with Old Lady Su.

He didn't say anything, but the look in his eyes when he looked at the young official was filled with the same meaning as Old Lady Su.

"It's just a job as an official!" The little official had a playful smile on his face, but he refused to explain himself clearly.

Since he didn't make his words clear, Old Man Su and Old Lady Su naturally misunderstood.

"I'm an official now, I'm an official now, I really am an official now!"

The old couple clasped their hands together, full of excitement.

An official came into the village and rode his horse all the way to the doorstep of the Su family. It was hard not to attract the attention of other people in the village.

Many people came to watch the fun. When they first heard the minor official say that Su Xigen was going to be an official, no one believed it. But now after hearing it again, they became skeptical.

But when there are a lot of people, there will always be some individuals who are particularly careful.

"No, how can Su Xigen be an official in that condition?" Someone in the crowd muttered, "From the look on the officer's face, he doesn't look like he's here to congratulate the Su family for getting an official position!"

It can be said that one word caused a thousand ripples. As he spoke, those who had not noticed the little official's expression before all looked at his face.

They were not members of the Su family, so they were not overwhelmed by the surprise, although they could tell the amusement in the expression on the young official's face.

Besides, although they were uneducated peasants from the countryside, they knew clearly what kind of people could become officials and what kind of people could not.

Most of those who can become officials are scholars. Even those who can become clerks in the county government are people with connections and abilities in their families!

What does Su Xigen have?

The rest of the family, even if they were relatives, were just ordinary farmers with no connections and no money.

As for studying? Su Xigen was lucky enough to be able to write his own name!

The onlookers who thought about all this clearly, coupled with the playful expression on the face of the small official, became more and more certain that the small official was definitely making fun of the Su family, and Su Xigen must have caused some trouble that was related to the officials.

Everyone stepped back, planning to evacuate immediately if any emergency occurred.

The people should not be enemies of the officials. Everyone subconsciously feels that what happened to the Su family is definitely not a good thing.

At first, Old Lady Song and Li Taohua almost thought that Su Xigen had really become an official, but after seeing the expression of the young official and everyone's comments, they really wanted to slap themselves on the forehead.

Those were the words that their sister Dong personally changed!

How could it not be implemented?

I think the officer was just joking and deliberately said the word "sitting official" so that he could come and watch the fun.

Seeing how overjoyed Old Lady Su and Old Man Su were, the young official felt that it was time to break their fantasy.

"Ahem," the little official cleared his throat, still with that playful smile on his face: "Uncle Su, Madam Su, please come with me with the money! Su Xigen is really a talent, he sat firmly on my eldest brother's face! That's really a sitting official! My eldest brother's nose was broken by sitting, and he fainted. Now he is waiting in the clinic to pay for the medicine! I don't even know if he is awake or not!"

The young official spoke very clearly and loudly, ensuring that both Mrs. Su and Old Man Su could hear clearly.

The old couple were holding hands and still having a good time, fantasizing in their heads that after Su Xigen came back, they would split up the family, and they would go live in the town with the third brother and his wife and their lucky granddaughter Su Fuju, where they would eat and drink the fine food and live the life of townspeople.

They had just thought about living in a big house, but the words of the small official were like a basin of cold water mixed with ice, which was poured on their heads all at once.

"What did you say?" Old Mrs. Su reacted the fastest and asked the young official in a daze.

The officer was very satisfied with her reaction and did not hesitate to repeat his words:

"I'm telling the truth. Your son sat on my eldest brother's face and almost killed him! My eldest brother is an official, isn't this the same as being an official?"

The repetitive words of the young official were like thunder in her ears. The strength of Old Mrs. Su seemed to be suddenly drained away, and she sat down on the ground.

"Didn't Fuzhu say that his father could be an official?"

Old Mrs. Su muttered to herself, unable to believe that Su Xigen was such an official. But she was even more unwilling to believe that Su Fuzhu was wrong. They could see the blessings that Su Fuzhu brought to them on a daily basis.

So Old Mrs. Su began to find excuses for Su Fuju.

At first she wanted to put the blame on Su Xianger, but when she thought about it, she realized that Su Xianger had hardly ever appeared in front of him during this period of time, and she had never had any contact with Su Xigen before Su Xigen left.

This angle didn't make sense, and she couldn't convince herself.

So she sat on the ground and thought. No one urged her to get up, so she continued to think and think, and finally she really came up with a reason.

The two words "being an official" and "sitting in office" sound the same. She must have misunderstood them at the beginning. At that time, Su Fuzhu must have been reminding them that Su Xigen should not be allowed to perform corvée labor, otherwise something bad would happen!

Unfortunately, the children had just started speaking and knew only a few words, so when I reminded them, they misunderstood.

That must be the case!

"My Xigen! It was mother who misunderstood and harmed you!" After convincing herself, Old Mrs. Su slapped her thigh and started howling.
