Chapter 71 Big Oolong

"Auntie, why don't we go to the county town to find my father first?"

With his father here, he feels at ease.

He has learned a lot from his father over the years, but he has never come into contact with the county magistrate of their Yang County. He has only heard of him from his father's mouth.

It is said that he is a good official, but who knows what he is like?

After all, these two unreasonable government officials are under the command of County Magistrate Zhao!

"Does your father have a relationship with the county magistrate?" Si Qing asked.

Si Jinbai hesitated: "No."

"If we don't have any friendship, it's useless to ask him to go. We can handle this matter ourselves." Si Qing replied.

But Si Jinbai was still worried. How could my aunt, a little child, handle such a big matter?

The two bullock carts bumped along the way to Chaoyang County. Except for Si Qing, everyone else felt as nervous as the carts.

Dajia Village is really not that close to Yang County, so everyone rode in a bullock cart and walked for two hours to get to the county seat.

In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Si Qing asked Si Jinbai to hide Si Dashan's family and the government officials in a relatively private place half a mile away from the city gate.

Then everyone drove ox carts and queued at the city gate for half a quarter of an hour, and then entered the county seat after passing the inspection by the guards.

As soon as he entered the county town, Si Qing immediately felt a different lively atmosphere.

There are stalls everywhere on the street, where you can eat and play everywhere, and various fragrances float in the air from time to time.

Pedestrians were coming and going on the street, including poor people dressed like villagers and covered with patches, and rich people wearing silks and satins.

"Auntie, we have to walk a little way to the county government office next. Oxen carts are not allowed in the city." Si Jinbai explained to Si Qing in a low voice.

"Then let's go." Si Qing jumped out of the car, and everyone else followed.

The bullock cart was pulled by another young man who was driving the cart and found a place to park.

The Chen family's daughter-in-law helped the injured Chen Shitou to go to the medical center for treatment first, and the others walked to the county government office together.

Before Chen's wife Li left, Si Jinbai deliberately avoided Si Qing and whispered to her, asking her to go to the blacksmith shop in the west of the city to find his father, Si Zhengping.

Mrs. Li nodded in agreement.

Yang County is a small county, and the county government office is located in the center of the county. It takes about a quarter of an hour to get there.

Si Qing looked at the drum of injustice at the entrance of the yamen, raised his legs and walked straight over. He was about to reach out for the drumstick, but was blocked by a hand.

"Little girl, if you want to play the drum, go home and play. This is the county government's grievance drum, and you can't just beat it casually." A fair-skinned young man wearing a government uniform stopped her with a smile.

"How did you know that I came here to play drums? Do you think you have to be older to play the drum of grievance?" Si Qing didn't give him a good look. He looked very serious with his small face.

Xing Wu was stunned by Si Qing's words.

I didn't know how to answer for a long time.

Fortunately, the villagers saw something was wrong and ran over quickly.

When Si Shanhe saw Xing Wu, he immediately recognized him and was about to say hello to him, but when he thought that they had just tied up two government officials, he felt a little guilty and did not dare to say anything.

Xing Wu obviously didn't recognize him or Wu either.

"Auntie, it's too tiring to beat the drum of grievances. You need to rest for a while while I do it." Si Jinbai smiled and went up to block Si Qing behind him and looked at Xing Wu.

"Auntie, are you okay?" The other people in the village looked nervously at Si Qing up and down to make sure she was okay, and then they felt relieved.

Then he turned around and glared at Xing Wu.

Today's officials are really bad. At such a young age, both of them want to bully my aunt!

"Auntie?" Xing Wu was a little stunned when he saw such an old group of people calling a little girl "auntie."
