Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

Is he here to teach?

The master and Pei Zhaoqi are both here. Not to mention the master, Pei Zhaoqi is much better than me in studying.

Why should I teach myself?

Could it be that in Brother Zhao's heart, I am even more powerful than Pei Zhaoqi!

He couldn't help but think of what Shen Zheng had said to his elder brother: Everyone in the county government likes him very much.

Is that really the case? Fang Ziyan immediately grinned foolishly.

Li Hongmao saw him coughing lightly and asked, "Why is it Ziyan?"

"Sir, you are going to issue food coupons to the county residents, and Brother Pei often comes to help you, and he loves reading. I am afraid that letting him teach me will delay his examination for the scholar degree."

Zhao Xiu replied that it was a well-known fact in the county government that Pei Zhaoqi was going to take the examination for the title of scholar.

Although Fang Ziyan also wanted to be with Pei Zhaoqi, he was stopped by Mr. Li, who asked him to study for a few more years before trying again.

If I delay Brother Pei's examination for the scholar degree because of such a small matter as mine, I will feel really guilty.

But Fang Ziyan is different. Apart from studying with Pei Zhaoqi and preparing meals in the public kitchen, Fang Ziyan has nothing else to do on weekdays.

When Fang Ziyan heard this, the smile on his face fell.

It turns out that it’s not because I like him, but because he is free?

When Zhao Xiu saw the expression on Fang Ziyan's face, he thought to himself that something was wrong and that he had said the wrong thing.

He quickly tried to make up for it: "In fact, the biggest reason is that Brother Fang helped me today. I think he is also very knowledgeable, and we have a tacit understanding in cooperation, so I thought it would be best for Brother Fang to teach me."

Very... knowledgeable?

When Li Hongmao and Pei Zhaoqi heard this, their faces froze at the same time, but neither of them refuted.

Just because Fang Ziyan was laughing so happily.

"Brother Zhao, do you really think so? If you ask me, it would be a piece of cake for me to teach you how to read and write!"

After saying that, he turned to look at Li Hongmao and asked, "Master, is this okay?"

Zhao Xiu also looked at Li Hongmao with the same expectant look on his face.

Li Hongmao agreed with a smile. As long as both of them were willing, he had no reason to disagree.

He said to Fang Ziyan, "I have some enlightenment books. I will give them to you tomorrow. You must teach your brother Zhao well."

Fang Ziyan nodded heavily.

He is so happy!

He is going to be a teacher too!

No! He had to go back and write a letter to his father and elder brother!

Li Hongmao saw him twisting left and right on the stone bench and knew that he could not sit still, so he said to Zhao Xiu:

"It's getting late today, can we talk about it in detail tomorrow?"

Zhao Xiu agreed immediately. If he went home now, Hui Niang would probably not be asleep yet, and they could still chat about some family matters.

......

After Fang Ziyan returned to his room, he rolled back and forth on the bed, too excited to sleep!

He couldn't help but wonder, does this count as accepting a disciple?

Then Brother Zhao would have to call his master "Grandmaster"!

Because of me, my master became the grandmaster!

Thinking of this, Fang Ziyan couldn't help but laugh out loud in his bed.

Pei Zhaoqi on the side couldn't stand him anymore and could only cough lightly.

Fang Ziyan then remembered that there was another person in the room, and his movements gradually slowed down, but he was still very excited.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard a rooster crow.

He turned around and looked through the window paper at the already dim sky outside, and was surprised to find that it was almost morning.

No! Fang Ziyan quickly closed his eyes. He needed to sleep for a while!

Otherwise, if he falls asleep while teaching students during the day, it would be so embarrassing!

......

In the early morning, the chirping of insects gradually died down, and a ray of morning light shone on the eaves of the Tongan County Government Office.

Fang Ziyan was the first person to get up in the entire Tongan County Government today.

He didn't fall asleep after all.

There was no way, this was the first time in his more than ten years of life that he was someone's teacher, this was simply too exciting.

When everyone from the county government went to the public kitchen to have breakfast, they were surprised to see Fang Ziyan sitting upright.

Shen Zheng even raised her hands and rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

The person sitting upright is indeed Fang Ziyan!

In the past, he would be very lucky to arrive at the public kitchen in time for breakfast, let alone early arrival.

What stimulated this child today?

However, no matter how they questioned him, Fang Ziyan remained silent and looked mysterious.

Old Qiao sat down with Cheng Yu, smiling, and said, "Young people's minds are the hardest to guess."

Shen Zheng asked, but couldn't get an answer, so she could only smile and shake her head, then asked everyone to start eating.

Then she turned around and asked about the progress of the textile machine in the past few days. Old Qiao also imitated Fang Ziyan's unpredictable smile.

"You'll know when you're done with your work."

Shen Zheng smiled helplessly. Both of them were acting mysterious.

At this time, Fang Ziyan was anxious. Why don't you ask him? Ask him again!

It’s not like he’s really not telling you!

He just wanted them to ask more questions, and when they were extremely curious, he would tell them the story and make them admire him.

But who would have thought that when they stopped asking, their expectations were dashed.

Ugh......

After finishing their meal, everyone walked towards the front yard of the county government office in groups of three or four. The gate had not been opened yet.

"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom."

There was a knock on the door.

The people in the yamen looked at each other in bewilderment. It was absolutely impossible for the county residents who came to collect food coupons to knock on the door, without exception.

Because the villagers had told them from the beginning that the county government would open on time every day, and they should just wait quietly at the door and not knock on the door randomly to disrupt the order.

At the same time, there was a discussion outside the door, but because it was too far away, the people in the yamen could not hear it clearly.

Something must have happened.

Shen Zheng turned to Xiao Yuan who was on duty last night and ordered, "Go open the door."

Xiao Yuan responded, walked quickly forward, removed the bolt, and opened the door from the inside.

As soon as he opened the door, he froze in place.

He looked at the middle-aged man dressed in the uniform of a constable opposite him and couldn't help feeling puzzled.

Brother Zhao is so efficient that he even gives clothes to the newly recruited constables?

The constable who knocked on the door didn't say anything when he saw Xiao Yuan. He just nodded to him, turned around and walked behind the crowd.

Xiao Yuan became even more confused. What was Brother Zhao up to?

Shen Zheng looked at the strange constable, had some guesses in his mind, and asked Xiao Yuan to retreat.

She chuckled and said to everyone in the county government office, "We have guests here. It's quite rude."

Xu Zhubu heard the displeasure in her words. He thought about the figure of the constable just now and searched his mind, but he was not familiar with him.

He replied, "I don't know which county he is from, but he got there early."

Only then did the others realize that the person who had knocked on the door was not one of Zhao Xiu's newly recruited constables.

But people came from other counties.

Everyone's faces darkened. Needless to say, they all knew why those people from other counties came.

Xiao Yuan recalled the way the man looked at him just now, a look of indifference mixed with scrutiny and a hint of disdain.

His anger suddenly rose and he clenched his fists unconsciously.

These people, don't talk about what they want.

Still looking down on them?!
