Chapter Forty-Six Days
"The daughter of the people has one more thing to ask the magistrate." Tangchi raised his head and stared at him straightly.
"Oh? Say." What else could a little village girl say? Wen Lou looked at Tangchi curiously.
"Can you please let women sell things in the city? The rent in the city is too expensive."
Does this little village girl know how to bargain? Wen Lou couldn't help but look at Tangchi a few more times.
"So you want me to protect you?"
"Your Excellency is wise!" Tangchi looked at Wen Lou with respect and admiration, "What is free now? You can barely survive by selling mushrooms to the magistrate, but who doesn't want to live a better life?"
"You are quite ambitious." Wen Lou smiled and lowered his head to straighten his blue gauze clothes as he spoke.
Green smoke flows.
"Folk girls don't dare." Tangchi lowered her head, but she was neither humble nor arrogant. She continued, "If you can find a place for folk girls to sell things in the city, mushrooms can be sold for twenty cents! It's really not easy for a folk girl to live alone.
."
Looking at the pair of bright eyes on Tangchi's thin face and the expression of unwillingness to settle for poverty, Wen Lou was touched. Is this really just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old village girl?
As a parent official, Wen Lou would naturally not be so ruthless to a little village girl who is eager to live. "It's not impossible. It's just that I have to guarantee my lord's safety first."
Seeing that the magistrate agreed, Tangchi felt happy and said hurriedly: "I will never let you go hungry!"
"..."
"Your Majesty, the daughter of the people said the wrong thing again! Please don't blame the county magistrate!" The magistrate did not only eat the mushrooms from her soup pool, how could he be starving?
Uncle Wen couldn't stand it any longer, touched his moustache and said, "Why would the magistrate care about you, a little village girl?"
Tangchi nodded and said: "Young girls know it. Just like the scholar in the village said, the magistrate has to take care of everything, right?"
Uncle Wen nodded.
Tangchi asked again: "I wonder who this Li Wanji is?"
After solving these matters, Tangchi returned to his honest look.
"..."
When Uncle Wen listened, he choked and coughed.
The smile on Wen Lou's face deepened a bit. "You are a very interesting little village girl."
Tang Chi felt guilty when Wen Lou saw her, lowered her head and said: "The girl is just a little village girl. She has never read any books and can't speak. She made the county magistrate laugh."
Can't speak? Who was the person who was trying to get some benefits from him even though everything he said before was reasonable?
Wen Lou waved his hand. It was normal for a little village girl to speak incoherently and garbled. But just now she had every sentence in an orderly manner, and with that kind of confidence, she didn't look like a little village girl at all.
However, how could Wen Lou, a county official, pay special attention to a small village girl?
"I'm leaving first, Uncle Wen, I'll leave the rest to you."
"Yes, sir."
"Go well, Lord Magistrate!" Tang Chi looked at the back of the Lord Magistrate slowly walking away, feeling a little excited in his heart. The Lord Magistrate is a good man!
"Take the money." Uncle Wen took out a bunch of money from his sleeve.
Tangchi took the money and stuffed it into his arms without counting it, then said with a bright smile: "Thank you, Uncle Wen!"
Uncle Wen left, and then someone came to move the mushrooms away.
Tangchi, who was looking relaxed and relaxed, did not leave the city immediately after leaving the magistrate's house. Instead, she walked around the city to see where was the best place for her to sell mushrooms.
