Chapter 1,036: Contacted
Chu Qing said that the fisherman "Then you better shout" was the truth. She was waiting for someone to discover that "Linyang Hou is back."
More than half of the first lunar month passed, and Lin Yanghou finally returned after a month of disappearance. Someone must witness and spread it.
However, the fisherman was frightened by the attitude of the two... He didn't frighten others, but was stunned by others.
Gan Lai reached out and grabbed his ankle hanging outside, exerting a lot of effort.
"Ah~ah~~~" A scream was originally hit, but now it has been scraped again. Is this the legendary shave (scratch) and light (egg)?
At the same time, the rooster crowed all over the first time.
The life of fishermen is more bitter than that of farmers. When the chickens crow for the first time, basically every household has finished their breakfast and is ready to go to sea.
So soon someone heard a voice from a distance: "I seemed to hear someone calling, and that sound was quite terrifying!"
"I heard it too, who is this!"
"I'm afraid I'm running into a tide-pushing ghost in the early morning, right? Who heard the sound of the rooster crowing before or after the rooster crowing?"
"It seems like a chicken cries?"
"No, almost at the same time!"
There is a saying in the Daxuan coastal fishing village that people who die of capsized due to going to sea and cannot be retrieved will become sea ghosts.
Those who die in the sea will become immortal and turn into sea ghosts and will serve hard labor in the sea.
The heaviest hard work is the tide-pushing ghost, pushing the sea tide back and forth, and not resting.
After death, no one will collect the body, and he will not be trapped in the soil. The resentment in his heart will not dissipate. In addition, the daily tide and pain will cause troubles, and when you go ashore, you will be able to catch people as a substitute.
If a rooster comes out to catch people before crowing, it means that he is afraid of the sun and can fight against him. If he catches people after crowing, then he is not afraid of the sun and no one can fight against him, and the arrested person is no longer saved.
"I called at the same time! I can't tell who comes first and who comes later." More people affirmed, and ran to the beach with lanterns and torches.
No matter what, they are all villagers. If you can, you can help. If you really can’t help, you must do your best.
With more people, they are braver, and more and more torches join the team.
The fisherman who was Gan Lai stepping on the "miserable" looked at the lights with Chu Qing. His faces reflected by the torches were all white, obviously with fear, but they all shouted loudly, "The sky is about to dawn, the sun is about to come out, and ghosts should go quickly and don't miss it!"
Scaring the sea ghosts is also to help them.
Some people in the crowd were carrying lanterns, but they were lifted very high, as if they were helping everyone light up, but they let Chu Qing and Gan Lai see clearly. They were their own kids.
In the cabin, Chu Yuan lifted his son up: "Don't sleep! Your mother is making trouble again outside!" He kicked Zhuo Yao by the way: "Get up quickly and report to the official!"
"Oh!" Zhuo Yao got up, quickly got out of the cabin, shouted to the underpass: "Sir, do you want to report to the official?"
The shouting was so loud.
Someone in the crowd heard it and muttered to each other: "Sir? Report to the official?"
So they saw a black shadow approaching them without taking a torch. They stood up and shouted, "Who is ahead! Lin Yanghou is here, don't be rude!"
The crowd that came suddenly stopped-
"Linyang Hou!"
"The government asked the report every day to report whether he had seen outsiders, just to find Linyang Hou?"
"Hey! The one in front! I am the village chief. What you said just now is really Linyang Hou?"
"Oh, yes! I see clearly, that's my marquis!"
"Yes! Our Marquis is finally back, and the Marquis is back safely! Wooh..."
Alas—This is the contact!
The villagers hugged Linyanghou and his group into the village to rest, and the village chief personally took Zhuo Yao to the county government office.
The boys in the fish roe sauce workshop surrounded Chu Qing and asked about his well-being. Two of them slipped away and went to the local Secret Investigation Department to inform him.
Chu Qing had a hot breakfast in the fishing village, and then had a good night's sleep on the village chief's house with some bald dog skin mattress.
By noon, the village became noisy, and Chu Yuan came over to help Chu Qing tie his hair neatly.
Not to mention, Chu Yuan has mastered his hair combing skills over the years. Although he can only tie a man's hair bun, he can comb well than Gan Lai and Chu Qing.
Chu Qing often lamented that in recent years, there have been some women around him, such as the palace maids, female guards, and the daughters-in-law of the Chu boys. However, if she can really run around with her, she can also feel at ease to lead her around with her, the only one who can come.
Women's physical limitations and self-restraints in their thoughts cannot keep up with Chu Qing's pace.
For Chu Qing, she herself is more tiring than a man. The Chu family has always used women as men and men as animals. It is really impossible to compare with other high-ranking officials and nobles.
But only a woman who is willing to do anything without any taboos and has good physical strength is still a person with thicker lines than Chu Qing. She really can't count on her hair like combing her hair.
Chu Yuan stained some osmanthus oil from the village chief’s wife on the comb, and stuck all Chu Qing’s broken hair. He combed it into the hair bundle, and instantly it became bright and tidy and radiant, and the "Master" style came out.
The village chief’s wife was particularly excited: This is Linyang Marquis, the Marquis, hey, she doesn’t dislike her using her osmanthus oil. What a big face.
She didn't dare to comb her hair, she just dared to be a mate on the outside, bring some face wash and cook.
Chu Yuan could also pretend. His little hair was combed smoothly and energetic. He poked the bar straight to Chu Qing's side, which made Chu Qing angry. He saw that he was the one who could use it around the Marquis.
Chu Yuan asked, "Why are there so noisy outside?"
The village chief’s wife quickly replied: “It’s Lord Guo of the government office and Lord Tang of the county office. There is also an unknown official who brought a carriage into the village. My old man went to guide the way.”
Linyang Hou An sat in the simple main hall of the village chief’s house, waiting for the arrival of the prefect, the county magistrate and the secret investigation department’s directorate.
We are the marquis, so we can make a lot of money, but no one dares to say anything.
Mengyuan Prefect Guo Zhengbiao and others have heard the following content from the way into the village:
It was still dark in the morning, and the villagers found Linyang Hou's ship. At a glance, they knew that Linyang Hou would rather endure hunger and freezing outside than disturb the people.
If there weren't any early fishermen who went to check the sea ice and found Linyang Hou, I'm afraid Linyang Hou would have waited until the sky was bright before entering the village. Therefore, Linyang Hou loved the people as much as his son!
This is what the villagers say.
I have never seen such a great official as the Marquis. The villagers were very excited because the Marquis had so many officials and the villagers wanted to perform even more.
So along the way, the villagers wanted to say more, but they didn't dare to talk too much, so they just said one word at a time, and another one after another.
But the village chief was not very confident.
He winked his eyes and refused to let the villagers point out specifically "check the sea ice situation". When he found the fishermen of Linyanghou, the village chief prayed in his heart: "I hope Linyanghou will forget this person and spare his life!"
Then I reported to the officials: the villagers had already served the marquis for breakfast, and the marquis Linyang was approachable, and they ate the same meal as the villagers, and praised them for their deliciousness.
The village chief meant: We received the Linyang Marquis, but I don’t know what it means to ask the government to report outsiders every day, and what his attitude towards the female Marquis, so I didn’t treat the things that were very good.
If you officials have any questions, don't involve us. We just treat you with plenty, but don't care about eating well.
