Chapter 811 Entering Fucheng

The journey was bumpy all the way down, and when they saw the gate of Fucheng, they were all very happy. It took eighteen days to finally see the city gate.

Although horse-drawn carriages are faster than ox-carts, Baiyunxi also asked the blacksmith to make spring-type shock-absorbing rings.

 But the road conditions during this period were not good after all, and it was still uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. Also because of the female relatives, the speed of the convoy was relatively slow.

 After spending a long time on the road, everyone looked tired.

“Grandma, are we really here?” Yaya looked at the window, full of expectation.

Tian Fei suddenly felt weak after hearing this, "Don't worry, I promise not to make any mistakes."

Wei Ting said, slapping him on the brim of his hat again.

"Tian Fei, you little bastard, turn around and warn Zhang Li not to make any mistakes at this juncture. If someone takes advantage of you, don't blame me for being ruthless."

“It’s really enviable. No wonder our mountain village is so poor. It’s because we have too few workshops and too many people.” Du Shi nodded. This is the difference between the countryside and the city. She had an eye-opener today.

While complaining, he walked over unsteadily, took the document and looked down. He immediately stood up straight, held up his hands, turned around and raised his hat brim to the guard beside him.

 “You little bitch, you don’t have any eyes for me, get out of here.”

After entering the city gate, Baiyunxi raised the car curtains so that he could not only enjoy the breeze but also look at the scenery on both sides of the street.

 After that, he straightened out his clothes and handed over his hands to the book.

   "Haha... I don't mind, I don't mind, I want it. I wonder what your little brother's name is?"

"This is not surprising. After all, it is a Fucheng with a large population and is naturally prosperous. Look at the shops on both sides. They are large and spacious. I heard that there are many workshops around. The existence of these workshops is most convenient for the people in the city. If you are employed, if you have work to do, you will have income, and your clothes will naturally feel better."

 “Don’t worry, it’s really here this time,”

Hearing Wei Ting’s casual tone of laughter, Xiao Wu glanced at him and nodded.

"I see."

Everyone greeted them, and the motorcade entered the city one by one. Shuyi was at the end, taking out a purse from his arms and patting it in Wei Ting's hand.

Shuyi handed over the documents, and the city gate captain opened it, glanced at the carriage behind him, turned around and shouted. The man sitting in the armchair next to him with his legs crossed spit out the toothpick in his mouth.

 “Why are you howling and making such a fuss...”

 While joking, the convoy has already begun to enter the city for inspection. Xiaowu is entering the city on official duty and only needs to show the paperwork.

 “Good brother Shuyi, haha…”

It is worthy of being a prefectural city, and compared with it, the county city is much inferior.

“Mother, the city is really prosperous. I took a closer look just now and found that none of the people walking on the street were wearing patched clothes.”

A book boy who is a personal attendant, is with the Lord every day, and has more power than a housekeeper. He is a city gatekeeper, and he is naturally willing to make friends with the people around the Lord Zhizhou.

"Invite brothers to tea. Mr. Wei seems to have a straightforward temperament. If you don't mind, go back and wait for us adults to settle down. I'll treat Mr. Wei to a drink?"

As he said that, before Shuyi could speak, the man came to the window of Xiaowu Car in a familiar manner, and cupped his hands with a smile.

“Congratulations to Lord Zhizhou on taking office. I’ll tell you the truth. I’ve long heard that our Lord Zhizhou is this year’s number one scholar. I didn’t expect him to be such a young and talented person.”

“I, Shuyi, am just the book boy next to my master, not worth mentioning.” Shuyi smiled slightly and directly reported his name. "It turns out that we are Shuyi brothers. I am really lucky to be with you. It seems that I am a few years older than you. If you don't mind, let's call ourselves brothers?"

Wei Ting chuckled and scratched his head in embarrassment.

"I'll be honest with you, my lord, I've heard this too. We who guard the gate of the city like to chatter our teeth in our free time. You'll know if you pass it on... Of course, when I was not on duty, I met the housekeeper of the prefect's family on the road. So we had a drink together."

“I drank a little too much at that time. The housekeeper may have vomited his mouth and said that a big shot is about to come to our city. I also overheard it accidentally. Please don’t be offended.”

“Pfft~, what a pretty girl.” Du Shi and Bai Yunxi looked at each other and couldn’t help laughing.

But it was just fresh. Compared with her former prosperity, this was just childish... Just as she was sighing, she suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye, and she sat up straight with a sudden thrill in her heart. When he opened the window and took a closer look, the figure disappeared again.

"You guys have a sharp nose. This new official has taken office. I advise you lazy monkeys to cheer up and don't act greedy every day and make people laugh."

The two of them chatted for a while and then dispersed. Wei Ting watched the person walk away, raised his hand to rub his chin, and the guard who had retreated to the side came closer again.

“Huh, if you don’t want to listen, just wait. They say that when a new official takes office, there will be three fires. Just don’t howl when it burns you.”

Listening to Du's voice, Baiyunxi turned to look outside. In addition to the shops lined up on both sides of the street, the waiters greeted at the door, the crowds surging on the street, and the vendors selling goods, this kind of quaint atmosphere was everywhere. The breath scene was also new to her.

If her mother-in-law hadn't suggested taking them mother and daughter out, she probably wouldn't have had the chance to leave the village in this life. As a woman who grew up in the countryside, she was content to be able to go to Fucheng in this life.

Bai Yunxi rubbed her loose bun and chuckled, "Go and ask your mother to comb your hair and tie it with a hair tie, so that you won't be looked at like a lunatic when you get out of the car."

"It's good to know. I'll treat you guys to drinks when the night changes." Wei Ting said, throwing away his wallet, humming a small tune and sitting back in the armchair, crossing his legs and continuing to squint his eyes to doze off.

Tian Fei straightened his hat and said, "Head, it's not that serious."

“It’s really what I want, Brother Wei,”

“Boss, this magistrate is really generous. The purse he gave us is heavy, and we can have a big meal at night.”

“I’m in the imperial court, and I happened to be on duty today. Unexpectedly, I met Lord Zhizhou when he took office. It’s really a great fate. Haha..."

  Du Shi looked away and covered her mouth with a handkerchief, her eyes were extremely shocked.

"I don't want to be a little lunatic," the little girl covered her hair and rubbed her face in front of Du. "Mom, comb me quickly and put on the new silk flowers that my aunt made for me, the pair with silver beads on them."

Bai Yunxi picked up the handkerchief and rubbed his eyes, and looked outside again. Except for the people passing by, they were all unfamiliar faces.

   The author was hospitalized, had a lot of tests, and was given four or five intravenous drips. He felt dizzy every day, and it took him two days to finish a chapter...
