Chapter 57 Greedy but not bad
Immediately, all the sergeants pricked up their ears and opened their eyes wide: Everyone really wants to know.
Zhao Liya smiled embarrassedly, so she briefly told the story.
Soldiers: "."
"It's still like this!"
"Ah, you are so lucky!" This is a great credit.
"Hey, thanks to Miss Zhao and Mr. Hu's good skills, if ordinary villagers meet them, it will be another tragedy in Zeng Yizhuang. This is also a fluke."
"indeed."
Zhao Liya and Hu Ling made a great contribution and deserved to receive a heavy reward, they were convinced. After all, this matter was really a fluke, and if there was a slight mistake, the two of them would probably die here.
Early the next morning, everyone went out of the mountain.
Zhong Lu and others escorted him back to his command, and Zhao Liya and Hu led them home.
Jong Lu told him not to talk about this matter, so the two of them didn't tell their family members, and just found an excuse to fool them.
The big reward and so on, of course the two of them didn't forget it. General Zhong is an upright person, and he will never forget it.
The two of them were exhausted from tossing and tossing for the past two days, each fell asleep and fell asleep in the dark, and didn't wake up until noon the next day.
The family vaguely knew that they were probably hiding something, but Zhao Xiang asked them if they were okay, and after Zhao Liya solemnly expressed his reassurance, Zhao Xiang didn't let Deng Shi and the others ask any more.
His daughter and adoptive son are not foolish people. Since they don't talk about things, there must be reasons why they can't.
As long as they are safe and sound, the rest is not important.
Zhao Liya is very grateful to have such a caring and trusting family.
The various mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and honeysuckle they brought back have been processed by Mrs. Deng, Widow Qu, and Aunt Li Shiyi. All kinds of mushrooms are so fresh that they cannot be eaten up. It can be eaten in winter.
Zhao Liya picked a lot of hericium erinaceus, red mushrooms, morels, etc., packed them in a basket, picked a big pumpkin, some red peppers, eggplants, beans, etc. from Widow Qu's vegetable field, and sent them to Hu Ling Go to Yu Gongcao's house.
Yu Gongcao's daughter-in-law was happy and proud when she saw that they brought so many things, and there really were delicious wild mushrooms such as Hericium erinaceus and Rhododendron, with a smile on her face, "Oh, you are too You're welcome! I'm really looking for fungus! I just said that casually!"
Zhao Liya smiled and said: "There are a lot of fungus in the mountains this season. We wanted to eat fresh ones, so we went to the mountains for a walk. It's hard work, but luck is not bad. It's not a special gift. You send some here, try something new"
"Then you really have a heart!"
Yu Gongcao’s daughter-in-law smiled, talked for a while, and then changed the topic: "By the way, I heard that you also captured a few remnants of pirates when you entered the mountain this time. Is it true? How did you catch them?"
Zhao Liya frowned secretly.
This daughter-in-law of Yu Gongcao is really not taboo about meat and vegetables, she dares to ask anything. Did Yu Gongcao even tell his wife this kind of thing? She didn't dare to talk nonsense about such things, and she didn't want to.
Although Zhonglu said that all the gangsters on the pirate list have either died or been brought to justice, even if there are some who are on the run, they are just Xiao Luoluo, who has no skills, and will spend the rest of his life either being caught or hiding his name as a rat in the gutter .
But, who knows if there might be some lunatics in it? What if he went crazy and didn't dare to seek revenge from the government, so he went to Yancun to take revenge on Zhao's family?
So only some people in the yamen know about her and Hu Ling's meritorious service, and Zhong Lu has instructed them not to let the discussion spread.
Yu Gongcao is a small official at any rate, so it’s not surprising that he knows something, and it’s not surprising that he talks to his wife casually, but Yu Gongcao’s daughter-in-law asked her specifically, which is too ignorant.
This is not gossip on the streets.
Zhao Liya smiled wryly and said: "This matter is because we were lucky. We found that some of them were injured and hid in the cave. We didn't think they looked like good people, so we reported to the officials. Later we just led the way. As for who those people were, I don’t know where I was taken. The officials in the yamen said that they are not allowed to discuss and inquire.”
Yu Gongcao's wife nodded: "So that's the case. Then you have made meritorious service. Didn't the government reward you? Cough, how much did you give?"
Zhao Liya suddenly understood, that's why!
This Mrs. Gong Cao is really.
The county magistrate is better off now, Zhao Liya doesn't want to offend her, but the money can't be given too happily. Otherwise, this Mrs. Gongcao might become even more unscrupulous and aggressive.
Zhao Liya smiled and said: ".This is not very clear, it must be. If there is, it will naturally be through the government. We will wait for the news from Mr. Gongcao."
Yu Gongcao is directly in charge of their Yan village. If General Zhong has a reward, the reward will naturally be given to the county government, and then the county government will distribute it.
As superiors, Yu Gongcao and the county magistrate must also have a share of credit. You must know that what Zhao Liya and the others caught was not an ordinary remnant.
Mrs. Gongcao thought about it carefully, and it wasn't exactly the reason. She nodded and said with a smile: "Ah, yes, that's the reason. I'm confused!"
Everyone laughed and laughed for a while, then skipped the matter.
Zhao Liya and Hu Ling took the opportunity to leave.
Madam Gongcao naturally wouldn’t keep them for lunch, so she sent them out with a smile.
Hu Ling was a little speechless, "This Mrs. Gong Cao is really greedy."
Zhao Liya smiled: "We are all sinners, inferior to others, and it's not surprising that she is unscrupulous in asking for it."
"In case she knows our sugarcane field."
Zhao Liya blinked: "The sugarcane field belongs to a certain wealthy businessman, please let the people in Zaihu Village manage it. Zaihu Village is very good to us, so please help us to go through the details. After all, Dad is the number one scholar. He has read a lot and knows a lot. There are a lot of people who know it! What else has it to do with us?"
Hu Ling's eyes widened, and he grinned, "Yes, yes, hey, it makes sense!"
"Well, that's right!" The two looked at each other and smiled.
Yu Gongcao's daughter-in-law is greedy for petty gains, but her nature is not bad, otherwise she wouldn't even give them a smile, and she wouldn't talk to them with such a smile on her face. Dealing with such a person is actually not difficult.
Look at the Gu family, that's bad. If Yu Gongcao's daughter-in-law had the temperament of those in the Gu family, she would have ordered the people of Yan village to come to the house to take turns serving as servants for her family. Not only do they have to be commanded, but they also have to be the kind of beating and cursing and wanton abuse.
Come to the city for a while, of course I have to buy some meat to go back.
I was lucky today and bought several catties of mutton. Buy a few more pieces of tofu, and cook mutton stewed carrot tofu at night. Keep half of it, and you can eat it for another two days tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
