Chapter 002 Complain
At noon, Lin Zimo, who returned to the back hall, was about to sit down for dinner when he saw Chu Han's appearance and not very happy, and Yang Mengqi's expression also seemed a little unhappy. Seeing the two of them like this, I was sure there must be something wrong. He knew that he couldn't hide things on Chu's face.
Lin Zimo, who sat firmly on the stool, said with a happy face, "Two ladies, if you have anything to say to your husband, just open your mouth. It's not a thing to be bored in your heart. After all, over time, you will become depressed. If you really fall ill, then I won't have a comfortable life.
Chu Hanlu sighed and said first, "The room here is much more dilapidated than the place where we used to live, and the room is empty. There is no garden outside the house for walking and ventilation. People feel a little unconvinced, feel uncomfortable all morning, and there is a nausea and vomiting impulse. I wanted to go out for a walk, but my sister wouldn't let me. She said that she is not familiar with the place and can't walk around.
Yang Mengqi, whose spirit is somewhat depressed, is afraid that he will misunderstand the two people's greed for pleasure, so he asked truthfully, "Father, don't mistake it for a little girl, and the slave family also has a similar feeling. I'm afraid that my sister and I are unconvinced. You are always a magistrate, and you still have to take care of yourself and the court. Things that need to be bought still need to be done. However, the slave family is really worried about whether there are any merchants selling the goods we need here? After entering the city, I always feel that this place is too lonely.
Chu Hanlu, who couldn't wait, continued to express his worries and said, "I feel that there is not only a shortage of water here, but also a lot of wind and sand. I have to take a shower every day. If you don't wash it one day, people will feel very uncomfortable. If we stay here for a long time, will people become dry? When we go back to our hometown, my mother may not recognize her little daughter.
Yang Mengqi, who agreed, nodded. On the one hand, he agreed, and on the other hand, he said that he was born as a beautiful woman: "My family, like my sister, needs to take a shower every day. Oh, depending on the local climate, we say it's not certain. We have to take a shower once in the morning, afternoon and evening. Other than that, our sisters' skin must not become less delicate.
Lin Zimo quietly listened to the complaints of his wife and concubine, and did not feel that the two of them were not doing right. I think their ideas are a little too much. Although the natural conditions here are worse than those in Guangxi, he will not believe that the women of the magistrate will even take a bath. He can only understand the skin problems of the two. However, before entering the city, I met a beautiful girl who was a native. Her skin does not look like the Gobi Desert, but quite white. As for the feel of touching it or not? He didn't experience it, so he didn't jump to conclusions.
Objectively, Anhua City is worse than Guiping City in all aspects. Lin Zimo felt that the two of them should not dislike the poor material conditions of life here, but the little Jiujiu of the girls. After all, they were worried that their guild did not like to lose their maintenance. In his opinion, they are still young. When they go far for the first time and leave their hometown, they will naturally feel uncomfortable and unaccustomed in all aspects, just like they left the local area to go to college. Lin Zimo put himself in their shoes and thought for them, so he could fully understand their feelings.
From Xunzhou Prefecture, Guangxi to Qingyang Prefecture, Shaanxi Province, their group has traveled thousands of miles for a long time, and must have worn out some good expectations in their hearts. Before the long trip, he believed that Chu Hanlu and Yang Mengqi would be quite looking forward to and slightly excited. I'm afraid that he would once think that the moon in other places would be rounder than that in his hometown.
After many state governments, Lin Zimo believes that it is enough to broaden their horizons and increase their knowledge. After all, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. For him, there are naturally some comparisons and contrasts in the hearts of these two little women. In addition, girls are more homesick than boys. They have some different characteristics, which are completely normal human nature and physical performance. After all, the delicate women who have lived in the south for a long time can't adapt to the water and soil in the northwest for a while, and so on.
At this time, he began to recall Lin Zimo in his previous life, laughing that he even shouted out the "grand words" that "I will never come back after I go out". After a lot of tossing, he still feels that it is the best place to give birth to him and raise him, and the ones who make him most reluctant are the dishes and people from his hometown.
Seeing Lin Zimo, who didn't talk, he smiled and said, "No matter how hard our family is, we can't suffer from the two wives. No matter how tired we are, we can only be a husband. What you said is really like that. Even if there are no conditions, I will create conditions to arrange for you.
Yang Mengqi and Chu Hanlu felt satisfied. A few smiles appeared on their faces. At this time, the three officially began to eat the first meal when they arrived here. The dishes are still their favorite, and they don't add the northwest flavor. After all, the thoughtful Yang Mengqi brought his cooks in order to let his father-in-law eat well and drink well.
After dinner, Lin Zimo went back to his room to take a nap. As soon as he got up, the defendant Chu Erlang and Zhao Wenxuan came. They were all brothers, so they calmly sat in the flower hall and drank tea. Knowing that there was no big event, he was not in a hurry and slowly walked towards the flower hall.
Lin Zimo, who walked into the flower hall, heard Chu Erlang say bluntly, "The thousands of households here are too tricky. The full staff should be 1,120 sergeants, but not even half of them. It doesn't matter, and the most deadly thing is that most of the people who are less than half are hired as impostors.
Lin Zimo, who picked up the tea, tasted two people leisurely. He knew that Zhao Wenxuan was a leading soldier. He believed that this trivial matter could not help his brother-in-law and said calmly, "This kind of thing is normal! It should be no wonder. If the guard office here was really staffed, then I wouldn't have heard the rumor that the government could not control the public security and local situation in the city.
"The magistrate's lesson is right." Chu Erlang, who realized that he had lost his normal "professional" level, said with self-reproach.
Zhao Wenxuan did not look nervous. Yun Danfeng said softly, "As long as we have enough food in our hands, we are not afraid of not recruiting people. In addition, we also brought a group of people, which should be enough to cope with the small storm.
Lin Zimo put the tea in his hand aside and solemnly said, "We still follow the old rules. In terms of money, we will pay in advance for the court first. After all, it is very necessary to have all the personnel. Although I have heard some bad news, I believe that there is no wind and no waves. If there is not enough power in this hand, even if what you say is the truth, others will be like you farting. Since I am in the position of Qingyang magistrate, I have the final say on an acre of land here. Neither the landlords here nor the foreign tribes can do it recklessly.
"Brother, you can rest assured that you can sleep peacefully. This matter of recruiting officers and soldiers is on me. Zhao Wenxuan, who was full of confidence, smiled and said, "Even if they turned out to be a flock of sheep, I will turn these sheep into tigers and wolves. If anyone dares to jump out and make trouble, I will lead them to destroy each other.
Lin Zimo never doubted his military talent, so he smiled and said, "I just want you to say this."
Immediately, Zhao Wenxuan laughed with his brother-in-law. Some Chu Erlang, who can't understand, seems to be a little uneasy in his heart. He has no idea where this money for recruiting soldiers comes from?
After laughing, Lin Zimo returned to the topic and said, "This sergeant is not enough to be recruited. Presumably their ordnance and so on should also be rusty and need to be replaced on a large scale. Wenxuan, you can work harder and do it together. If the money is insufficient, just let me know. As for other related matters, I will submit them in the form of official documents.
For Zhao Wenxuan, the most annoying thing about himself is this article. Naturally, it would be better for my brother-in-law to deal with these things. The two have a division of labor and cooperation, so that he can devote himself wholeheartedly to military affairs. The better they are, the more they can gain a foothold here. Zhao Wenxuan, who is arrogant in his bones, certainly does not want to see the situation of being kicked out by others. He understood the meaning of Lin Zi's silent words and deeply understood the truth that only soldiers can have the right to speak.
"Erlang, don't be lazy either." Lin Zimo, who had already had arrangements in his heart, smiled gently and said, "It is said that this street will not stop. Then you should first help the officials in the government to grasp the public security in the city. Only when the Anhua city is at peace can we have more energy and strength to govern things outside the city.
Chu Erlang, who stood up, felt a great responsibility and said with his fists in his hands, "I will never live up to the high expectations of the magistrate."
Lin Zimo nodded his head. The action in his hand was to signal him to sit down and remind him, "You can't just be strong. After all, this is a means, not the ultimate goal. Therefore, you must be measured, otherwise there will be more pressure and rebound.
Chu Erlang, who raised his ears and listened carefully, knew that he was going to practice his ability to handle affairs independently. Thinking of this level, he is both stressed and eager to express himself.
