Chapter 137 Lively
If they were to rely on themselves, they would definitely not be able to grab anything. Didn’t they see the envious and jealous eyes of those shops in the county? Village chief Guo felt very happy.
He smiled and told Ming Youyou and the others to stop, and even took out a handful of copper coins to give them, "Don't worry about it, you rarely have a day off, go over and have fun."
Ming Youyou happily took it. She had already seen Madam Zhang waving at her. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go over and talk first. You wait for me at the gate of the county government office later."
After saying that, she ran towards the stall selling mutton soup with steamed buns. She hadn't eaten it for a long time, and this time she deliberately didn't have breakfast to save some for herself.
Luo Xiucai saw her rushing towards him like a little firecracker, and was so scared that he immediately stood in front of her, "You better be careful, don't bump into anyone."
Seeing people coming around, he turned around anxiously to protect Madam Zhang, "Quick, go back behind the stall and stand. I told you not to come out, but you refused to listen."
When Ming Youyou and the other three saw how cautious he was, they glanced at the couple's faces and said "Oh" in unison.
Zheng Huan and Lu Tai smiled and bowed, "Brother Luo, congratulations."
Luo Xiucai smiled so hard that his mouth was almost split to his ears. "It's not even three months yet, so we can't tell anyone yet. Keep a low profile, keep a low profile."
Feng Xu bumped his shoulder and said, "You've been married for less than three months. You're amazing, Brother Luo. You didn't get pregnant on the wedding night. You hit the jackpot."
Zheng Huan gave him a stern look and warned him, "How dare you say such nonsense in public?"
Feng Xu smiled embarrassedly and subconsciously looked at Ming Youyou, only to find that the other person was not paying any attention to him at all.
She was sitting on a stool with a bowl of mutton soup in front of her. She held a steamed bun with meat in her left hand and pretended to feel Mrs. Zhang's pulse with her right hand. Uncle Zhang was watching happily with a satisfied look on his face.
"How is it? Is there any problem?" Mrs. Zhang asked a little nervously.
Ming Youyou had a tense face and was staring at the void in front of her with a frown. At first glance, she looked like an old doctor, if you ignored her bulging cheeks.
It was rare to meet someone who was willing to let her take his pulse. Ming Youyou didn't want to let this trust down, so she reluctantly opened the connection and spent points to send Madam Zhang's pulse case to the research institute.
"Don't worry, the pulse is very good." After she finished communicating with the other party, she came back to her senses and said, "It seems that I have been a little nervous recently, which has affected my sleep and appetite."
Madam Zhang's eyes lit up. "That's true. I've been waking up before dawn these past two days, and then I couldn't fall asleep again. I also have no appetite."
Uncle Zhang was extremely worried after hearing this. "Why didn't you tell me earlier about this kid?" He asked Ming Youyou, "Is this serious? Does he need any medicine?"
Ming Youyou shook her head. "All medicines are poisonous. Besides, Sister Zhang's condition is not a big problem. It's better not to take it if you can."
Uncle Zhang nodded immediately, "Okay, okay, then we won't take medicine. Do you think we need any other method?"
Ming Youyou thought for a while and said, "I'll prepare a herbal bag for you and hang it on the head of your bed. It can help you sleep. If you really can't sleep, just smell it. It can also have a calming effect. By the way, when you feel nervous, you can also massage a few acupoints on your body." She learned and used it immediately, following the instructions on the screen.
Uncle Zhang hurriedly pulled Luo Xiucai over and said, "Watch carefully and learn from him carefully."
When Mrs. Zhang saw her husband, she couldn't help but complain, "It's all your fault. You always forbid me to do this or that. I was fine before, but now I'm nervous too."
Luo Xiucai glanced at Ming Youyou and suggested in a low voice: "How about we ask a doctor to take a look?"
Mrs. Zhang felt the area where she was pressed was sore and swollen and felt very comfortable. She thought her husband was making a big fuss. She said angrily, "Didn't we just see him two days ago? There's nothing wrong. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at for going there so often?"
"Your son-in-law is also worried about you. I will go to check on you in two days. You should be more careful with this first child." Uncle Zhang was very satisfied with Luo Xiucai now. "It's almost time. You should hurry to the government office, otherwise you will miss out on a good seat if you are late."
Madam Zhang hesitated, "Dad, why don't you go and take a look, I'll keep an eye on this stall."
Uncle Zhang shook his head and said, "I am too old to join in the fun. I would rather sell more food and earn more money."
Mrs. Zhang and her husband followed Ming Youyou and the others to the county government office. Waiting at the door were Old Man Ming, Grandpa Yang, and the two village chiefs of Xiaguan Village and Dafeng Village.
Only then did everyone realize that Ming Youyou actually wanted ten spectator seats, and they couldn't help but give her a thumbs up in admiration.
Zheng Huan and the others looked at the growing crowd and asked in confusion, "Master Tao agreed to give it to you so readily?"
Ming Youyou blinked, "I promised to do a small thing, and Master Tao agreed."
She looked at them guiltily, "Lord Tao thinks this case has a certain educational effect, and wants to find someone to adapt it into a story. I think you are just right. This is a ready-made story material, so I helped to grab this job, haha, haha."
Zheng Huan and two others: ...Thank you.
With the task of writing an essay and just watching the fun, the mood was completely different. The three of them felt as if a mountain had fallen on their backs. Their silly and happy thoughts were gone in an instant. After discussing with each other, they started to inquire about the news separately.
Inside and outside the county government office, there were groups of people gathered together chatting. If they moved closer, they could immediately hear the general idea.
Sometimes, two groups of people nearby have different opinions. When they hear the other side's point of view and think it is unreasonable, they can't help but refute it loudly. The other side is not convinced at all and starts arguing unwillingly. After a while, they both get angry and it is not known who started the fight first, but they start fighting in full swing.
The county government had anticipated such chaos. At that time, Mr. He was sitting on the second floor nearby. Seeing a fight breaking out here, he pointed with a small flag and the bailiffs immediately rushed forward and separated the people in no time.
Seeing that the fight was not serious, he gave the two groups a lesson and let them disperse.
When the onlookers saw this, they felt that today was the perfect day. They hadn’t even started the trial yet, but they had already seen a big show. It was worth it for them to queue up before dawn.
Some people thought more about it. They looked at the yamen runners and even the hangers-on nearby and found that these people were maintaining order at the food stalls and did not touch the food at all.
The stall owners seemed to be used to it. Instead of bowing and scraping to offer tribute, they chatted and laughed with the yamen runners. The group of people who had just started the fight were let go after being scolded twice. They didn't even take the opportunity to collect some bribes...
It seems that the county magistrate of Yuqing County is not only upright himself, but also good at governing his subordinates.
