Tao Jinyan didn't expect to be treated so politely, so he bowed his hand and replied with a greeting. Then he looked at them with his old eyes and said, "Don't you know the two noble surnames?"

Before Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could speak, Zhang Dazhu said Jiang Yue and Xue Yan's names like a firecracker.

"It turned out to be Mr. Xue and Mrs. Jiang." Tao Jinyan said with a smile.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan remained the same sentence: "Just call us Xue Yan and Jiang Yue."

Tao Jinyan didn't say it well, nor did he say it badly, but asked again: "I took the blame and dare to ask where you two came from? How could he come to our Shitou Village to inquire about it?"

Why are they all the village chiefs and have studied? If it weren't for the fraud in the imperial examinations and even passed the scholar exam, they would naturally be much more cautious than Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not surprised either.

Originally, they were very strange, suspicious and alert.

Jiang Yue bowed and said, "We are not convenient to tell Village Chief Tao where we come. I hope Village Chief Tao will forgive me, but Village Chief Tao can think about it. What are the worthwhile plots in your village like this?

We really just wanted to find out something, without any malice.”

Tao Jinyan thought that their village was so poor that even if they didn't come, they would be hungry even if they came. There was indeed no profitable place. So, someone came to harm their village or the people in the village.

, it is naturally impossible to do so much effort.

What's more, the two young men in front of them dressed in noble clothes and had such good texture. Even if they sold all the people in their village, they might not be able to buy these two clothes...

There is no need to run so far to come here, it takes so much effort...

After thinking about this, Tao Jinyan was completely relieved, and then he bowed and smiled: "Then please go in and sit down. The humble house is simple, please forgive me."

"Guardian Tao is too humble, please ask first." Xue Yan said with a smile.

Seeing Tao Jinyan walking to the hall first, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue followed.

Tao Jinyan didn't be polite to Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou. While entering the main hall, he said, "You two, go and pour two bowls of water, the water is in the kitchen."

Xue Yan and Jiang Yue were not thirsty and wanted to say no, but Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou were already busy and were very familiar with Village Chief Tao's house. Obviously, they often come.

The main hall was very simple, with only one table and four benches, but it was cleaned very clean.

It was not until Zhang Dazhu and his son poured water that Jiang Yue and Xue Yan politely took a few sips, and Tao Jinyan asked, "I wonder what Mr. Xue and Mrs. Jiang want to ask?"

It seems that Village Chief Tao still calls them Mr. Xue and Mrs. Jiang, just like Grandma Zhu and Aunt Tian insisted on calling them that way...

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other. Naturally, they would not force this title.

Immediately, Jiang Yue said: "My husband and I know that this is Dachen, and this village is Shitou Village. I heard that the emperor Shi Yuan was extremely cruel. He killed people in the palace every day, and he had heavy taxes. The people were living in poverty. No one dared to speak out anymore.

We don’t know the rest. If the village chief knows something different, he hopes that we can tell us that we are grateful.”

Tao Jinyan smiled and said, "The things you already know are all the ones that Dazhu and his son just told you just now, right?"

Before Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could talk, Tao Jinyan smiled and said, "Everyone in our village knows these things. They all heard of them. They either heard of them from the town or from the county. The streets and alleys of these two places
