Chapter 83 Shen Wanning is actually an illegal resident?
"By the way, I have one thing I'm not clear on. Most families in Daqing Village are surnamed Lin, so why is your family the only one that can be called the Old Lin family?"
Shen Wanning didn't know this either. She had never asked these questions, so she looked at Chen Liehu.
Hunter Chen smiled innocently, "Most families in Daqing Village have the surname Lin, which is good, but only the old Lin family has produced a scholar, and he has now gone to Fuzhou to take the imperial examination. This title can be regarded as a recognition and respect for the scholar."
The county magistrate was a little surprised, but nodded and continued to ask, "Since you are the daughter of the old Lin family, why is your surname Shen and not Lin?"
"This... Actually, I am not the biological daughter of the Lin family. I accidentally lost my memory a few months ago and ended up here. Fortunately, I was rescued by the Lin family, so I was regarded as their goddaughter and was able to live in the Lin family." Shen Wanning answered truthfully.
"So, you are an illegal resident?" The county magistrate suddenly looked at Shen Wanning.
Shen Wanning choked. She hadn't really thought about this. Without a household registration, she couldn't even leave Fuzhou.
When I bought the land and built the house before, I was thinking about the Lin family, so I always wrote the names of Lin Dashan and Aunt Zhang, and never considered these things.
"Forget it. Considering that you have done so much for Daqing Village, I promise that as long as you can lead the officials to find Cassava, I will help you solve the household registration issue." Seeing Shen Wanning stunned and not saying anything, County Magistrate He continued.
"Thank you, sir." Shen Wanning bowed again.
County Magistrate He nodded, and finally asked Shen Wanning how to find water and how to obtain water, which ended the conversation. Before leaving, County Magistrate He praised Shen Wanning highly and decided to send people to Daqing Village to identify cassava the next day.
"I know you come to the county town every day to do your milk tea business. Let me tell you, I can't delay you from making money. Tomorrow, when you finish your business, send someone to tell me. I will send someone to accompany you back to the village and go up the mountain to look for cassava."
"Thank you, sir. It is my honor to do something for the people. It doesn't matter if this business doesn't continue for a day. People's livelihood is the most important." Shen Wanning said modestly.
County Magistrate He touched his nose and said, "It's settled. Remember to send someone to inform me tomorrow."
In fact, he was worried that his wife and daughter would not be able to drink milk tea for a day, and would blame him when they found out the truth.
"By the way, sir, I have a favor to ask. When the autumn harvest comes, could you send someone to Daqing Village to check the yield of sweet potatoes per mu? My family has planted exactly one mu of sweet potatoes, and I will hire someone to dig sweet potatoes together, which won't take up too much of the officials' time." Shen Wanning bowed and requested.
During the autumn harvest, after the results were announced, County Magistrate He pondered for a moment. If the Lin family boy could pass the imperial examination, he might become his colleague in the future. Going there would be a gesture of respect for him. Even if the sweet potato yield wasn't as high, there would be no loss.
If the output is really as Shen Wanning said, it would not only be a great contribution for Shen Wanning, but also a political achievement for him.
"Okay, I promise you. When the autumn harvest comes, remember to let me know and I will send someone there." County Magistrate He nodded and promised.
"Thank you, Lord He. I'll take my leave." Shen Wanning bowed again and went out with Chen the Hunter.
As soon as they left the county government office, the Lin family came to greet them. Aunt Zhang looked Shen Wanning up and down, and was relieved to see that she was intact.
Lin Daqiang, who was standing by, had already finished his caning. Mrs. Hu supported him and slowly moved him forward.
Seeing Shen Wanning come out, Lin Daqiang stood there, staring at her for a long time. Xu stood in front of Shen Wanning to block her, pointing at Lin Daqiang and cursing, "What are you looking at? Didn't the county magistrate beat you enough? Do you want more caning?"
Lin Daqiang turned away angrily, and Mrs. Hu helped him walk to the clinic. The doctor sighed and left.
The doctor just testified for Shen Wanning, so there is no way Lin Daqiang and Mrs. Hu would let the doctor treat him again.
Shen Wanning paid for another carriage and returned to the village with the villagers. This time, except for Lin Daqiang and his wife, who remained in the county, everyone else returned. The village head and several villagers also accompanied them on the carriage. Therefore, Shen Wanning did not mention the county magistrate's discovery of the truth, but simply said that the county magistrate would send someone to identify the cassava tomorrow.
"Wan Ning, is there any cassava on our mountain? What if the county magistrate sends someone, but there is no cassava on the mountain?" The head of the village was surprised and happy, but also a little panicked.
"There should be, but we dug too much a few days ago, so we need to go deeper to take a look." Shen Wanning replied.
"How about this, we'll find a restaurant in town to have lunch today, so that everyone doesn't have to go back to cook. Once we get back to the village, we'll go up the mountain together to look for cassava. That way, we can take people directly to identify it tomorrow." Shen Wanning suggested.
"How can we let you spend money on this? There are quite a few of us coming this time. How much will it cost to have a meal outside? That's not a good idea. We should go home and eat. It won't be too late to go to the mountain after that." Aunt Niu said quickly.
"Don't be polite, everyone. If you hadn't testified for me today, the county magistrate wouldn't have closed the case so quickly. This meal is my way of thanking you all. You must eat it, otherwise I'd feel bad for wasting your time for the whole morning." Shen Wanning looked at the villagers with a sincere face.
Aunt Zhang deliberately smiled and responded, "Wan Ning's words make sense. We're all from the same hometown. It's just a meal, don't take it to heart. My daughter is stubborn, you can't convince her, so you might as well listen to her."
"Well then, let's have this meal shamelessly."
The group chatted and laughed along the way and soon arrived in town. Shen Wanning took them to the largest restaurant and filled two large tables.
Finally, the village head and the Lin family ordered dishes together, and after eating, they took a carriage back to Daqing Village.
After returning, the village head called all the villagers to gather under the old locust tree. Except for Lin Daqiang's family, everyone else was there.
"Tomorrow the county magistrate will send people to our village to go up the mountain to identify cassava. Today, everyone go up the mountain to look for cassava. Remember, report to me immediately after you find the cassava. Do not dig it up privately." The head of the village said loudly.
"If we help the county magistrate find cassava, will he give us money?" someone in the crowd asked.
The village head was very disappointed, "Money, money, money, all he could think about was money. The county magistrate sent people to identify cassava and promote it in the future. Do you know how great a contribution this would be to our Daqing Village?"
"In the future, when we leave Daqing Village, if we just say we are from Daqing Village, everyone will look at us with respect. Moreover, we have shown our faces in front of the county magistrate. If there is a good harvest of sweet potatoes in the future, it will not only contribute to Qinghe County, but also to the Great Xia Dynasty."
