She looked at Xu Zhubu and Li Hongmao who were distributing food coupons to the villagers, and then she realized that she had forgotten to switch shifts with Li Hongmao for the past two days.

And Li Hongmao didn't even remind her.

Shen Zheng reached out and patted his head. He had been so busy lately that he really forgot about it.

She looked at Pei Zhaoqi, who was sitting next to Li Hongmao and reading a book seriously, and felt a little guilty.

We must not delay Pei Zhaoqi's examination for the title of scholar.

All matters concerning the county school have been arranged, and now the students from all villages are waiting for the county school to officially enroll students. It seems that she also needs to speed up the process.

Shen Zheng suddenly thought, could the matter of recruiting a gentleman be handed over to Li Hongmao with full responsibility, just like recruiting a constable?

But then she immediately rejected this idea. The threshold to become a constable is low and anyone can give it a try.

But it’s different for teachers in the academy. There are only a limited number of scholars in the county. If you want to teach in an academy, you must at least be a scholar, right?

But she is a scholar from Tongan County...

Shen Zheng searched her mind for a moment, wondering if she was out of touch with the news or if there really were no scholars in Tongan County.

At least as far as she could remember, Tongan County had not produced any scholar in the past two years.

It seems that I have to send these guests away today and then discuss the matter with Xu Zhubu.

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

There was a sound of horse hooves outside the county government gate, and the villagers who were queuing up dispersed to both sides to avoid it.

Shen Zheng's face immediately darkened.

These people didn't even dismount at the gate of her county government office. They behaved like this even when they came to ask for help. They really have no idea what they are doing.

After a moment, she curled the corners of her mouth again. This kind of people are actually easier to deal with.

Constable Xiao Zhan, who was on duty at the door, turned around and looked at Shen Zheng, asking her with his eyes what she should do.

Shen Zheng waved her hand to signal him to step back, and then shook her head at him, meaning to ignore him.

Xiao Zhan immediately understood what she meant. His face looked serious and he stood solemnly at the side of the gate, his back straight and his eyes not looking away.

Sometimes ignoring and treating others coldly can also be a humiliation.

Shen Zheng sat back in the armchair and used a wooden clip to pick up some tea leaves from the tea can and put them into the teapot.

At this time, the sound of wheel and horse reins were heard outside the door.

She didn't look up, but picked up the kettle and added some boiling water to the teapot to wake up the tea first.

"Master Shen! These are all for you!"

Fang Ziyan trotted over, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and a pile of jars of various shapes in his arms.

Shen Zheng looked at the pile of ceramic jars, stunned, and asked: "Are these all tea leaves?"

Fang Ziyan nodded, smiled innocently and said: "These are what my elder brother brought me before. He told me to give a can to whoever is good!"

Even Shen Zheng couldn't resist after these words came out.

She followed Fang Ziyan's words and asked, "So you gave me so many cans because you think I'm very good?"

A shy smile appeared on Fang Ziyan's chubby face.

He thought again of the mess they had made when they first met, and felt a little embarrassed to admit his true thoughts.

He raised his head proudly and said, "I am...giving you my power!"

In fact, during the time he was in the county government, besides his master and Pei Zhaoqi, his favorite person was Lord Shen.

Although Lord Shen can be a bit sharp-tongued sometimes, what he says can make him cry.

But he could feel that Lord Shen did not hate him, and sometimes Lord Shen would even carefully teach him some principles!

Shen Zheng was just about to ask him to put the tea aside when there was a commotion outside the county government office.

The county residents who were queuing in the county government office were talking in low voices.

"Where did these officials come from? One of them just came, but he doesn't look like he's from our county!"

"County magistrate! The one in the middle is wearing the uniform of a county magistrate! Which county is this county magistrate from? They came to the county government office. Could it be that they have something to ask the county magistrate?"

Some smart county residents combined recent events in the county and guessed the purpose of those people's visit.

"Our rice is heading now. I think these people have bad intentions!"

When the county residents nearby heard this, their minds became active and they couldn't help but gasp.

"Yes! I think that's what you said. What should we do? Should we ask the county magistrate to drive them out?"

After they finished talking, they turned around and looked at Shen Zheng in the pavilion. Seeing her talking to a young man, they couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Mr. County Magistrate, have you seen the person coming?

Xu Zhubu looked at the anxious faces of the county residents, turned his head to look at Shen Zheng, and then said to the county residents:

"Don't make a fuss, just arrange it as usual."

When the county residents heard the shouting, they quieted down even though they didn't know what the two adults were going to do.

The county magistrate is a god!

Now, for them, as long as the county magistrate is around, they are not afraid of anything.

At this time, six constables from other counties were surrounding a man and standing at the gate of the county government office. They looked at the scene inside the gate without any hesitation.

The middle-aged man standing in the middle was fat and had a protruding belly. The county magistrate's belt hung crookedly around his waist.

He saw that he had been standing at the door for a while, but the people in the county government had no reaction, and his face immediately showed some displeasure.

The leading captain understood what was going on when he saw the villagers lined up in the county government office.

The Tongan County Government Office has really turned into a vegetable market!

I had received news before that the magistrate of Tongan County had introduced some kind of subsidized grain, and the grain was much cheaper than on the market!

At that time, they all laughed at the people of Tongan County, saying that they were really starving to death, and the county magistrate was the same, who even threatened the grain shops for this group of unruly people!

The captain smiled contemptuously, moved over and said to the middle-aged man:

"Don't be angry, sir. I will go and call someone."

After he finished speaking, he walked towards Xiao Zhan, who was standing at the side of the county government gate, and spoke loudly to him:

"My Lord Ba, the county magistrate of Quanyang County, has come to look for Lord Shen of Tongan County. Why don't you go and report it quickly!"

His tone was full of arrogance. In his opinion, as a captain of a large county, it was an honor for him to speak to a constable from a poor county.

Go and report it immediately? ! Who is this person instructing?

When everyone in the county government heard this, they suddenly became angry and rolled up their sleeves!

Xiao Zhan was thinking about Shen Zheng's silent instructions just now. He didn't even glance at the person in front of him and continued to stand straight.

When the Quanyang County police chief saw that this young constable dared to ignore his words, his face immediately darkened.

He took a step forward and forced himself face to face with Xiao Zhan. From the looks of others, it looked like the two were about to kiss!

He gnashed his teeth and said, "I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me?"

Everyone in the county government office was secretly observing the movements at the door, thinking that if something went wrong, they would immediately step forward to help!

Xiao Zhan's expression remained unchanged. He just glanced at him and suddenly raised his hand.

The Quanyang County police chief immediately took a step back: "What are you doing! Are you going to do anything?"

Xiao Zhan smiled at him and wiped his face with his sleeves: "Don't get so close to people when talking to them. Your saliva is spraying on my face. It stinks."

"Pfft! Hahahahaha!"

The people in the county government laughed mercilessly. This was the constable of Tongan County, and he couldn't stand any loss!
