Chapter 262 Father-in-Law's Love
Houcheng can be said to be in ruins waiting to be revitalized.
After Lu Desheng became the new Houcheng County Magistrate, his official duties increased.
As the saying goes, if something happens, the disciple will do his duty. But for Lu Desheng, if something happens, his daughter will do her job. The daughter has that time, and the most important thing is that she has the ability to help him share part of his official duties.
Therefore, Lu Songli was recently arrested by her father, and she went to the county government office every day to help her father. At first, it was just some statistical work, but later on, no matter what the official business was, she would go through it again. She couldn't handle it. Her father will deal with it later.
Lu Songli goes there early every morning, and Qin Sheng picks her up at night.
Her father, Lu Desheng, waited for her to leave before taking anyone out.
She goes there frequently, but everyone who is currently on duty at the Houcheng County Government knows that Mr. Lu was sent to Houcheng unexpectedly for his second daughter, so it is not surprising.
The father can go out for the sake of his daughter, but the daughter comes to her parents' house every day to see what's going on?
Having said that, after Lu Songli took over her father's official duties, her father had more time to go down to understand the people's sentiments and solve some practical difficulties for the people.
County Magistrate Guo Chunsheng once secretly lamented to his wife that even though County Magistrate Lu was so busy and ran out every day, he was not delayed at all in his official duties and was really capable.
Xue Xu also heard Guo Chunsheng's sigh, but he smiled and said nothing.
Early this morning, Lu Songli, Qin Sheng and his wife got up early.
Lu Songli continued to go to the county government to help her father and take care of the county government affairs.
Qin Sheng went to the Houcheng military camp and revealed his idea of suppressing the bandits to Zhou Da and others.
Zhou Da and other brothers were very supportive of his idea. They were all eager to inquire about the situation of bandits in Liaodong County.
You won’t know if you don’t ask, but you’ll be shocked if you ask.
It turns out that there are so many bandit dens in Liaodong County?
Get rich, get rich.
"Sixth Master, when shall we take action?" Suppressing bandits, they like this job!
"I'm not busy. I still have to ask Master Lu and Master Le for instructions."
When they learned that he wanted to ask his father-in-law for instructions, Zhou Damajin and others didn't even let him stay. They pushed him to the county government one after another, "Sixth Master, go and ask for instructions quickly. Don't delay here."
There is no problem with this matter. Who doesn’t know that Lord Lu is the father-in-law of the Sixth Master? The suppression of bandits does require Mr. Le's decision, but with Mr. Lu taking the initiative, it is destined to be accomplished. Who doesn’t know that Mr. Lu’s mouth can talk about life and death?
Qin Sheng walked away with a frown. People like Zhou Da are simple-minded. Their eyes light up when they hear bandits and bandits. They have never thought that there is only one mountain village in Houcheng, and the others are distributed in the other seventeen counties of Liaodong County.
When he found out the news just now, he was a little disappointed.
Can the troops in their Houcheng cross the border to suppress the bandits? Of course, it is possible with Master Yule's consent. But will the county governments in other counties ask for a role and then divide the spoils?
When he arrived at the county government office and saw Lu Songli, he still looked unhappy.
Lu Songli stopped the pen in her hand and asked curiously, "What's wrong? What kind of problem did you encounter?"
Qin Sheng told the distribution situation of the bandits and also expressed his worries.
Lu Songli saw the troubled look on his face, as if the eighteen bandits were eighteen pheasants. Only one pheasant could be killed at any time in his own territory, and the rest were in other people's territory, making it difficult for him to attack.
Lu Songli laughed.
Qin Sheng looked at her, wondering how Lili could still laugh. Those were all her money, and he was annoyed to death.
Lu Songli comforted him, "Don't worry, first destroy the Black Wind Stronghold in Houcheng. The other seventeen places where the bandits cannot escape will make your wish come true."
Qin Sheng blinked, what does this mean?
Lu Songli told him quietly, "My father may be promoted to the new governor of Liaodong County, and then the entire Liaodong County bandits will belong to you."
Qin Sheng's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Lu Songli said with certainty, "It will only take a few days."
She guessed that Emperor Song Mo's reward this time would be distributed as soon as possible. Only when rewards are cashed out in a timely manner can the people below work harder. Moreover, this matter can also be concluded and recorded in the history books.
At this time, people in the backyard brought Lu Songli lunch.
Lu Songli greeted Qin Sheng, "Have you eaten yet? Come, let's go together."
Qin Sheng touched his stomach and sat down.
After dinner, someone came to report that the county magistrate and his wife had returned one after the other.
Lu Songli nodded. It was a coincidence that her parents came back at the same time. They both went out in the morning, but they went to different places. Her mother went to the street, and the family moved into the backyard of the county government office. There were a lot of things that needed to be purchased, and her mother should go and take care of this. Her father went to the countryside to supervise farmers for spring plowing.
Qin Sheng wanted to ask his father-in-law for help, so Lu Songli asked him to go there first. She still had some work to finish and couldn't leave for the time being.
Qin Sheng said oh and went obediently.
"Suppressing bandits?" Lu Desheng washed his hands and was about to sit down to eat.
He has been really busy recently. He just came back from the fields with his people and had dinner. Later, he had to meet the landlords and wealthy households in Houcheng to make some connections with them.
Qin Sheng: "Yes, suppress bandits and train troops by the way."
Just at this time, Mrs. Jiang personally delivered the food. When she saw her son-in-law was there, she greeted him warmly, "A Sheng, have you had lunch? If not, why don't you sit down and have some with your father-in-law?"
"Mother-in-law, I have eaten. I just ate with Lili." Qin Sheng stood and answered politely.
"Then sit down and have a bowl of soup to replenish your body." Lv Desheng said.
Qin Sheng couldn't refuse the kindness, so he had to sit down. He had just accompanied his wife to dinner, and after making sure that his wife was full, he took all the remaining food and was a little full.
Now his father-in-law and mother-in-law wanted him to eat more. Fortunately, it was just a bowl of soup, so it should be no problem to eat it.
Lv Desheng was much more pleasing to his son-in-law now.
He had thought that after he got the job done, he would clear out the bandits and mountain bandits in this area. He worked hard to run Houcheng, not to make wedding clothes for others.
Now his son-in-law has a job, which is great.
Lv Desheng was so happy that he couldn't help but pick up some food for him.
The father-in-law picked up some food here, and the mother-in-law picked up some food there. Before long, there was half a bowl of meat in his bowl.
What could Qin Sheng do? He could only eat slowly, and even secretly loosened his belt a little bit when they didn't notice.
