Wei and Jin cooks

The county magistrate did not expect that his headache was not how to entertain the sudden arrival of the governor, but a group of refugees and soldiers.

It was impossible to set up a table. Even if he wanted to set it up, there weren't that many seats, so he was silent for a moment and then said to the troubled steward: "Set up a few long tables, divide them into left and right sides, and entertain the soldiers on the left. The right side is for the refugees.”

He said: "Let people put the pot in the pot to make rice, and everyone will start cooking."

The steward asked: "Are you all cooking?"

There are so many people.

The county magistrate had vaguely sensed Zhao Hanzhang's dissatisfaction. He gritted his teeth and said: "We will feed the soldiers, and the refugees will cook porridge to make it thicker. If the food is not enough, we will take it from the warehouse and borrow it from the mill..."

In short, let’s calm down Zhao Hanzhang’s anger first.

Not only the Jun Cheng, but other officials also sobered up and pretended not to see the distressed Jun Cheng. They followed Zhao Hanzhang through the door with cheers.

At this time, the backyard was bustling. The female relatives were enjoying the scenery in the garden. The laughter and laughter came like bells, which made people happy when they heard it.

Zhao Hanzhang looked back at the five big and three thick soldiers, and then at the stupid Zhao Erlang. He felt that it was better not to go inside to scare people, so he turned his eyes and went directly to the main table.

The place was filled with wine jars.

As soon as she got closer, the mellow aroma of the wine aroused the greed in her stomach. She picked up a jar of wine and was about to pour it, but Fu Tinghan quickly held her down with quick eyes and hands.

Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but look at him.

"Drinking on an empty stomach is not good for your stomach. Eat something to cushion your stomach first."

Zhao Hanzhang could only retract his hand with regret. The officials behind him felt that they had a place to use them, and hurriedly caught up and said with a smile: "Your Majesty wants to drink, how can you forget about meat? Come here, bring the roasted venison up quickly." ."

The roasted venison was spiced, and the tender tenderloin was cut as thick as a knife. It was freshly grilled on the stone slab, sprinkled with spices and salt, and the fragrance kept coming into Zhao Hanzhang's nose.

She casually handed the plate to Zhao Erlang, who was watching eagerly, and then sat down at the main seat with Fu Tinghan, "Everyone is hungry. Do you only have venison here?"

The officials understood and immediately said: "Hurry up and let the kitchen prepare good food, and roast some more venison and send it over."

Another official lowered his voice and ordered, "Everything brought here wants tenderloins."

At this time, the servants of the Juncheng family had no time to think about the overstepping behavior of several officials, and left after listening to the order.

Roasted venison is delivered continuously, as well as various grilled meats and vegetables.

That's right, in the middle of winter, the county magistrate's house not only has boiled vegetable soup, but also grilled vegetables.

This was even rarer and more precious than the tenderloin of a deer. With a smile on his face, Zhao Hanzhang had a better understanding of the extravagance of Nanyang officials.

She wasn't angry at all.

There are also benefits to having rich subordinates. Zhao Hanzhang thought that the position of Jun Cheng was neither high nor low, and he had further ideas. She would feel bad if such a rich subordinate did not use him.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at Zhao Erlang lovingly and put more meat in front of him, "Eat more."

It’s hard for them to eat such delicious food outside.

Zhao Erlang nodded repeatedly as he ate. After more than a year in the army, he had long forgotten all the etiquette he had learned before. When eating, he only had one word: "Hurry!"

Zhao Hanzhang was not in a hurry, and Fu Tinghan also used a knife to help her cut the venison into pieces, so she was even less anxious.

While eating, he looked around and praised: "You have a good layout. It is windproof, you can also see such a snowy scene, barbecue in the fire pit, fine wine and food, not bad, not bad."

All the officials laughed heartily, and then Zhao Hanzhang asked curiously, "But if I remember correctly, the yamen has not been sealed today, right? Are you all absent from work?"

Everyone's expressions froze, and the county magistrate finally arrived and said quickly: "I was about to report back to the envoy that our county governor resigned from office and took the seal. We have reported the details of the incident. The official document is on the way, and I may have missed you."

Zhao Hanzhang waved his hands indifferently and said: "If you miss it, you will miss it. I know that County Sheriff Pei resigned and went into seclusion, but what does this have to do with you being absent from work? Shouldn't you be more troublesome if the Sheriff is not here?"

All the officials froze, not knowing how to argue.

Zhao Hanzhang poured himself a glass of wine, drank it all and sighed: "The wine is good wine, and the meat is also good meat, but what I eat is very unpleasant."

Everyone lowered their heads quietly and listened.

Zhao Hanzhang: "When I entered the city, I saw many refugees in ragged clothes sitting and lying on both sides of the road outside the city. When I entered the city, the aroma of wine filled the city. A beggar ran past me and said he wanted to wait here. Your Majesty will eat the remaining Gushui."

The Jun Cheng's face became even stiffer and he became panic-stricken.

Zhao Hanzhang sighed: "Now I see that the house is so lively and prosperous, but there are many people dying of hunger and freezing outside."

"People outside are dying of hunger and freezing because their ancestors were unable to protect their descendants, and they themselves are incompetent. What does that have to do with my father?" A young girl asked standing in the corridor.

At some point, the female relatives in the garden came over and were standing on the porch not far away, looking over here.

Hearing his daughter talking to Zhao Hanzhang like this, the county magistrate broke into a cold sweat and shouted hurriedly: "Mother Ying, don't talk nonsense. This is the governor, so why don't you come over and see me?"

Yin Ying walked over with a calm face and saluted Zhao Hanzhang, but still looked directly at her, "Forgive me, although my father stopped, I still want to say that those untouchables starving to death and freezing to death have nothing to do with my family's banquet with guests. What’s the relationship?”

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and asked Jun Cheng first, "Do you think it matters?"

Jun Cheng blushed and said, "Yes..."

Zhao Hanzhang raised his hand to stop him, turned around and asked Zhao Erlang, who had already eaten five plates of meat, "Erlang, do you think it matters?"

Zhao Erlang thought for a while and nodded fiercely, "Yes!"

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and asked: "Then what does it matter if you tell this little lady?"

"Her father is the county magistrate. The people in this county are all his responsibility. If they are not living well, it is because he has not done well." This is what Sister A taught him, saying that if his soldiers cannot fight well, , life is not good, that means he will not be good!

In the same way, if the people are not living well, it is natural that their "generals" are not doing well. "And today is not a holiday. They do not go to the office and drink and have fun at home. This is absenteeism and their salary will be deducted!"

Several times when he was supposed to be training instead of training, he went to play instead, and his sister deducted his salary and refused to allow her to give him pocket money, even if he wanted to buy candies.

Zhao Hanzhang nodded approvingly, and when he looked up at the little girl, there was only coldness in his eyes, "Eating the emperor's salary is a matter of loyalty to the emperor. My father eats my Nanyang Kingdom, and uses my Nanyang Kingdom, and the silk on your body, The fine wine and food in this house, as well as your honor, all come from my Nanyang country, and now you actually say that the hunger and cold of the people in my Nanyang country has nothing to do with your father?"

Zhao Hanzhang turned to look at Jun Cheng and said coldly: "Yin Sheng, your daughter is not taught well."

Yin Sheng's face turned red and he hurriedly bowed and admitted his mistake, "I have failed to teach you the right way. I hope you will forgive me."

Yin Ying's face also turned red, almost bleeding.
