According to the court's regulations, yamen at all levels should go to work on time at Mao every day, which is the origin of the word "dian Mao".
However, despite this, most local governments at all levels will not strictly abide by it, because most of the time, it is not dawn yet, so they generally adopt the working hours of "working at sunrise and resting at sunset"
.
Over time, this has become an unwritten rule.
It was already dawning at this time, and the prefect's office should have started working.
However, Lin Xu did not ask them to go to the prefect's office immediately, but asked everyone to have a simple breakfast.
Although the meal is simple, you must eat and drink enough!
Because lawsuits are not only an energy-consuming matter, but also a very physically consuming matter. It often takes most of the morning, especially considering that Aunt Sun and his daughter are weak, if they are hungry, they are a little overwhelmed.
When they arrived at the prefect's office, it was almost the same time. The two vermilion doors of the prefect's office were open, and there were two soap officials wearing soap clothes and holding water and fire sticks standing at the door.
It was the time of spring and autumn. Two soap officials drank a little late last night and got up a little early today. Now they were sleepy and were leaning against the wall and napping!
Although there were many pedestrians on the bluestone road in front of the prefect's yamen, no one stopped at the yamen because this was a heavy place in the yamen and was not a place to stay casually. If you stood curiously at the yamen and looked around, you were accidentally careful
If you get into any trouble, you really have no place to cry!
At this moment, Lin Xu and his group arrived at the prefect's office.
"Go and beat the drum!"
Yang Dingyuan said to Aunt Sun.
“I…I…”
Although on the way here, Aunt Sun had made up her mind to make a plea for the old man, she would do her best today!
But at this moment, looking at the majestic and profound prefecture office, Aunt Sun had finally accumulated enough courage to lose in an instant, her legs could not control themselves, her mouth was stammering, and she couldn't say anything.
"Why are you still standing there? Go quickly!"
Yang Dingyuan is not a patient person. Seeing Aunt Sun's appearance, he immediately got a little angry.
However, after being scolded by Yang Dingyuan, Aunt Sun was even less courageous and shook her head and did not dare to step forward.
Yang Dingyuan stared at her eyes and was about to get angry again. Ruolan couldn't stand it anymore. She glared at him and said, "Miss Sun was scared, you still scared her like this!"
Although Yang Dingyuan had a strange temper, he never quarreled with women. He shook his head and said nothing.
Ruolan took Aunt Sun aside to do psychological construction for her. After Ruolan's tireless consolation, Aunt Sun finally mustered up the courage again!
Finally, accompanied by Ruolan, Aunt Sun finally walked to the yamen gate and pulled out the dust-filled drumstick with his right hand trembling.
"Auntie, knock it!"
Ruolan continues to encourage Aunt Sun!
"Daughter, you... can you knock with me?"
Aunt Sun's eyes were filled with tears, and her tone was full of prayer.
"......OK!"
Ruolan didn't know if she could beat the drum of injustice with Aunt Sun, but when she saw Aunt Sun's begging eyes, she couldn't bear to refuse. After thinking about it for a while, she finally gave a positive answer!
So, the two of them picked up the drumsticks together and beat the drum of injustice! This chapter has been completed!
