Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte
Chapter 11 Something big is going to happen
The next day, Song Jinshu was still thinking about the forced labor, so he went straight to the gate of the county government office and squatted there.
When Lu Ruoyu heard the news, she hurried over and saw Song Jinshu sitting on the threshold of the county government office. Her eyelids twitched.
Lady Song has been acting very strangely lately, always doing things that she would never do normally.
"Sir, what are you doing here...?"
Song Jinshu turned her head to look at Lu Ruoyu, and saw that his sleeve was stained with ink. She felt a little embarrassed. He was working seriously, but she was slacking off every day. It was really unfair of her.
"Good morning, County Magistrate Lu! Didn't we notify everyone about our recruitment of laborers? Why is there no one here today?"
She pointed to the empty door. She originally thought it was too early, but she waited all morning and no one came.
Some county residents were so frightened by her sitting at the door that they took a detour...
Lu Ruoyu was silent for a moment, then explained softly, "Each village counts the number of people for the labor service, and then the total is handed over to us by the township."
After saying that, he looked at the sky and continued, "Our county's population is not as large as other counties. It should be delivered before tomorrow."
"That's it!"
She was taking it for granted and thought the people here were too stupid. Whether they were modern or ancient, there were always many smart people.
Song Jinshu brushed off the nonexistent dust from her butt, turned around and walked back to the county office with her head held high. After a moment's thought, she paused and politely asked, "County Magistrate Lu, are you busy with official duties? Do you need my help?"
Lu Ruoyu was stunned and pursed her lips. Very busy! Almost too busy!
She looked into the other person's indifferent eyes, as if she would throw a tantrum and collapse if he dared to say he needed her.
Alas! He must have owed her in his previous life!
"I am busy with the affairs of the county government, but there is one matter that requires your decision!"
Song Jinshu blinked his eyes in confusion, tilted his head and asked, "What's the matter?"
Lu Ruoyu was suddenly stunned. The sunlight shone on her, and the person in front of her seemed to have changed, like a simple and harmless little girl.
His heart started beating uncontrollably and he was actually in a daze in public.
"County Magistrate Lu? County Magistrate Lu? What are you staring at? Is this going to be that difficult?"
Little did she know that his expression caused Song Jinshu to misunderstand. She waved her hands in front of Lu Ruoyu, but she felt uneasy in her heart.
She is very simple-minded and was just an ordinary girl before she traveled through time.
Now she is still an ordinary person. She is not interested in any national affairs. She just wants to keep her life and this golden rice bowl.
Lu Ruoyu woke up immediately, and felt embarrassed and ashamed when she thought about how she had just stared at a little girl in a daze.
He secretly despised himself...
"Awake? Tell me, what do you want me to decide?"
Song Jinshu felt uneasy. Could there be something wrong with the dam?
If there really was a problem with the dam, should she go back and pack up her things and run away?
No, if you don't have a pass here, you will be treated as a refugee, and you will be at the bottom of the contempt chain everywhere.
Lu Ruoyu's cheeks flushed red, and she didn't dare look directly at her. After a few seconds, she explained, "The Li family left Jingyang County last night, but they didn't redeem Li San's head. Li San's body is still at the county government office. Your Excellency, please decide what should be done with him."
"What? Who are you talking about? Is Li San's body still in the county government office?"
Song Jinshu suddenly jumped up in shock. So, after Li San was beheaded yesterday, his body was dragged back to the county government office?
Then didn't she spend the night with Li San, whose body was separated?
Just thinking about Li San's miserable appearance gave her goosebumps.
"Quick! Tell the Li family to come back and take Li San away! Take him away today!"
Song Jinshu rubbed his arms. Why did it feel colder all around?
She shook her head frantically, she was definitely overthinking it, there was no such thing as floating in this world!
But when she thought about it again, wasn't she just a ghost?
Lu Ruoyu looked at the little girl opposite him, her face turned pale with fear, her little hand still grabbing his sleeve, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily rose.
What a coward!
But he still obeyed the order to avoid really scaring her.
Unexpectedly, it rained heavily at night and the wind was howling.
Song Jinshu tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. It was not until the second half of the night that he finally closed his eyes.
In her dream, she relived the scene of being beheaded in her previous life, and then the scene of Li San's execution flashed to her mind.
She obviously didn't witness it with her own eyes, but it was so real and scary in her dream. Then she suddenly dreamed that Li San came to her covered in blood and asked her to pay with her life!
Song Jinshu was frightened awake. After seeing the surrounding environment clearly, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief. It was all a dream!
But, shouldn't it be the morning hour? Why isn't it morning yet?
An ominous premonition flashed through her mind. Will something happen?
Song Jinshu hurriedly uncovered the quilt, put on his clothes and went out, and met Lu Ruoyu head-on.
Lu Ruoyu's cheeks turned pale and she looked nervous. Her premonition might be right!
"Sir! This is terrible! It rained heavily last night, and the water level has risen. The dam is about to collapse! We must quickly order the people to evacuate!"
Song Jinshu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she was destined to suffer this fate?
"Sir! It's almost too late. Please give the order!"
Lu Ruoyu has been paying attention to the situation of the dam and is the person who knows the specific conditions of the dam best.
If the rain continues, the dam will collapse in less than ten days.
"Okay! Okay! I'll order them to hide in the mountains for a while. Oh, and let's go to the dam ourselves! I won't feel at ease unless I take a look for myself!"
Song Jinshu shook his wide sleeves and pulled Lu Ruoyu out of the county government office.
Lu Ruoyu also agreed to go and take a look in person, but he still held back the hurried Song Jinshu.
"Don't worry, sir! We can go faster by ox cart!"
"Oh! That's right! County Magistrate Lu, you lead the way!"
Song Jinshu patted her head. She was really confused.
The two men came to the stable, where an old cow was lying. This was the most valuable means of transportation for the county government.
Cows are already a very valuable means of transportation in Jingyang County, as ordinary families don’t even have donkeys.
Looking at the simple canopy, Song Jinshu was really afraid that it would collapse if the wind blew too strong.
Lu Ruoyu was the first to lift the curtain and signaled Song Jinshu to get on first. Now was a critical moment, and Song Jinshu had no time to be pretentious, so he jumped directly onto the ox cart.
In order to avoid suspicion, Lu Ruoyu did not get in, but sat side by side with the driver. The two chatted for a while and seemed to be very familiar with each other.
He gently reminded: "Sir, let's set off now, sit tight!"
Song Jinshu responded, held on to the frame, and the ox started to move slowly.
Because the rain was so heavy, the mud on the ground was sticky and the ox cart slipped from time to time, but it was a close call.
Inside the car, Song Jinshu felt like he was going to throw up. How come he brought motion sickness with him after traveling through time?
It’s really terrible! Woo woo woo…
