So what if you flee from famine? Start all over again and live a good life every day
Chapter 210 The whole village contributes
When the county magistrate entered the yard, the remaining villagers stood up. Others watched the fun, but the teacher didn't think so.
In recent years, Yingcheng has produced many scholars, but none of them can make the county magistrate come to visit in person. Most of them just send a legal advisor from the yamen. It seems that Lin Ze has caught his eye.
Thinking of this, the teacher lowered his head and smiled, stroking his gray beard and went to chat with the county magistrate.
Others who heard the news also rushed here. Village Chief Zhao also rushed back from the town. He walked, so naturally he was not as fast as these people.
"Village chief, village chief, the county magistrate is here!" When Village Chief Zhao was about to go in, he was stopped by Aunt Li.
"What?" Village Chief Zhao stopped and looked at Aunt Li: "Why is the county magistrate here?"
"I don't know," Aunt Li guessed, "It should be to give Lin Ze face. After all, he just passed the imperial examination and was the first in the exam."
"Village Chief, what does "Case One" mean?"
"First place?" Village Chief Zhao looked at the villagers surrounding him in shock. When he saw them nod, he took a deep breath and said, "The first place is the one who scored the best."
"He is so amazing!" the crowd exclaimed
Village Chief Zhao did not speak, but straightened his clothes. He had changed into a new set of clothes when he first came.
Take a deep breath and walk towards the house.
In the room, the county magistrate was chatting with the teacher, old man Lin and grandpa.
"I, the village chief of Qingshan Village, Zhao Yongquan, kowtow to the county magistrate." Village chief Zhao kneels on the ground
"Village Chief Zhao, please get up quickly. There is no county magistrate here." When the county magistrate saw Village Chief Zhao, he immediately told him to get up: "I am just a guest. Come and sit down."
"Yes, sir." Village Chief Zhao stood up and sat aside.
I have met the general before, and now I am meeting the old man of the county. I don’t want to be restrained at that time, so I can chat with him beside him.
The county magistrate had just taken office and had a good personality. He chatted with the teacher, Father Lin, the village chief, and Grandpa. He was very approachable and could talk to anyone.
There was a lively chat in the main room, and the yard also began to get busy.
Their house was small, so they used the village road outside the door. Each household brought stools, tables, and built a fire. Lin Ze's passing the imperial examination was a big deal in Qingshan Village, and all the villagers in Qingshan Village got moving.
Lin Youhao borrowed Chen's oxcart and headed for the city. It was faster to use an oxcart, and he had a lot of things to buy, so the oxcart was also convenient.
It is the end of March now, the season when there is a shortage of food. The vegetables in the fields are just beginning to grow, while wild vegetables are very abundant.
However, if wild vegetables are not handled properly, they will have a bitter taste.
At the same time, the wealthy businessmen in the county and those who had always wanted to make friends with the county master but had no chance, immediately put down what they were doing and hurried here after learning that the county master was here.
This also led to an increasing number of people in Qingshan Village.
There were a lot of people, but not enough supplies at home. There was no prior notice or anything, and many things were not prepared.
Zhou Guoer's family also rushed over after hearing the news: "Does anyone need help?"
Zhou's mother came over, and her sons began to help carry stools, set up the stove, and
"You are here too." Aunt Lin hurried over to greet Zhou's mother.
"Can we not come? We rushed here as soon as we got the news!" Zhou's mother smiled and looked at the busy people in the yard.
"Passing the imperial examination is a big deal!" Zhou's mother said with emotion.
In ancient society, scholars had a very high status, and passing the examination was an important step for them to officially enter the official career, just like the modern college entrance examination, which is to be admitted to a top-notch university.
A scholar who passed the examination and ranked first was equivalent to the modern top scorer in the college entrance examination and was even more highly regarded and respected.
"How is it? Are all the things ready?" Zhou's mother came back to her senses and asked hurriedly. It seems that there are a lot of people coming today. They must eat before leaving, right?
"I've asked Youhao to go buy some meat, but I don't know how much he can buy. Is it enough?" Aunt Lin said. She had never experienced anything like this before, so after the initial panic, she calmed down. "I hope the child will be more careful and buy more."
"Fellow villagers, as you can see, we have guests at home, and I haven't prepared much at home," Aunt Lin said to the villagers who were busy watching the fun, "I know you all have some chickens and ducks at home, and today I want to borrow some. Don't worry, after today is over, I will return them to you door to door tomorrow."
"Mrs. Lin, what's the big deal? We still have two chickens at home. I'll go get them for you." Aunt Li heard this and said, "Fortunately, every household in our country raises some livestock. Let's gather some together and prepare the feast first."
"I have some at home, from last year, and we have eggs too. I'll get them for you," said a villager.
"Thank you." Aunt Lin felt more confident when she heard this.
"Mom," Lin Youxiang came back driving a bullock cart. On the cart was half a pig, some other dried vegetables, groceries, etc.: "This is all the meat we have. I bought it all. Do you think it's enough?"
As soon as the ox cart stopped, several aunts came forward to take the meat down, and on the makeshift table, some cut the meat, some chopped the stuffing.
"There are so many people in our village, this half of a pig should be enough." Aunt Lin saw the half of pork and nodded: "I bought some chickens in the village, and it should be enough when added together."
"Aunt Lin" Sui He came over and pointed to the wooden barrels at the back: "I have fish and tomatoes here, you can take them."
The wooden barrel contained half a barrel of tomatoes and grass carps weighing three or four pounds. These grass carps were caught in the village river. There were many fat fish in the river, and a lot of them were caught with one net.
This is what Suihe and Xiaonan found online
"The vegetables are here too." A grain lady brought a few aunts with a basket of sweet potato tips. After a month of growth, the sweet potato vines have grown very long, and it's okay to pinch a little bit in one place.
The other basket contains some tasty wild vegetables.
"Okay, okay, okay, thank you." Aunt Lin was so moved that she was speechless.
The whole village is busy, everyone has something to do.
The tables were set and delicious dishes were served.
Tomato fish fillet, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, chicken stewed with wild bamboo shoots, tiger skin meat, dumpling tofu, mapo tofu, and a series of other dishes were served.
The tomato fish fillet was taught by Suihe. Even how to fillet the fish was taught by Suihe on the spot. At this time, the tomatoes were still young seedlings and had just bloomed.
Sui He took out so many tomatoes. Everyone present was busy and no one noticed this. However, Sui He had already thought of a way to explain.
At that time, she said that she wanted to try to grow tomatoes in winter for research. The tomatoes had just matured in the past two days. She had even planted the fruit-bearing seedlings in the corner. It was not discovered on weekdays because she covered it with thick hay.
However, this type of tomato is too expensive and time-consuming, so she would advise others not to follow her example.
