Zhao Hanzhang just came to set an example and encourage the people to actively participate, so that the officials and the people would enjoy it.
Seeing that Zhu Chuan and the gentry gentlemen were also coming, she expressed her welcome and pulled Fu Tinghan over to join in the fun and encourage them, "Young gentlemen, would you like to take a guess?"
The princes glanced at the riddle and could tell the answer to it, shook their heads and refused, forget it, they would not compete with the people for profit.
Such a simple riddle is not worth boasting about if you win, but it would be embarrassing if you lose.
Zhao Hanzhang did not force himself and said to Zhao Kuan: "Brother Kuan, please smile more."
Zhao Kuan smiled under the threat of Zhao Ming's cold gaze.
Zhao Hanzhang was satisfied and said sideways: "Uncle, shall we go back to the county government office to rest for a while?"
Zhao Ming refused. He just wanted to give Zhao Hanzhang face by coming over to take a look at it and express Zhao's attitude. Now that he had seen it, it was time for him to go back.
However, before going back, he still turned to Fu Tinghan and said, "You should learn more about throwing pots. It will come in handy for banquets in the future."
Fu Tinghan did not intend to continue this talentless game, he said: "I will practice archery."
"Archery and pot throwing are different."
"Yes," Fu Tinghan agreed, "Archery can also be used to kill enemies, while throwing pot is just a game."
Zhao Ming choked and asked, "Do you use this to judge whether you should learn a skill?"
Fu Tinghan nodded, "I'm not interested and it's no longer useful. Why should I learn it?"
Zhao Ming was speechless for a long time, "You... aren't you happy when you throw the pot?"
Fu Tinghan shook his head, "I don't feel happy."
Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "That's because you didn't win. Once you win, you will lose again and feel the joy of competition, so you will naturally like it."
Fu Tinghan spread his hands, "But I just haven't won once. It seems that fate doesn't want me to learn this skill."
He smiled and said: "But I really like watching you throw pots."
Zhao Hanzhang raised his head proudly and said to him: "I will vote for you in the future, and I can teach you. There will be no problem with your angle, but you just didn't control your strength..."
Zhao Ming looked at the two of them with difficulty, shook his head and said: "You guys can play, I'll go back first."
There was a lot of joy in Xiping County. The county government did not refuse people from outside the county to participate in the activities, and there was even no limit on the number of times.
So as long as you queue up, you can participate in a game in an infinite loop, regardless of whether you are from Xiping County or not.
Chen Fang's daughter soon discovered this, so she started queuing up in a loop at the needle threading place. Each time she went up to compete, her speed was always a little faster than the last time. On the third time, she finally got the reward, a small bag of wheat flour.
.
She was so happy that she ran to the end of the queue and lined up again.
Winning again, this time the reward was soybean oil. They all brought jars with them when they came, so she waved to his mother who was not far away and brought the jar up to fill it with oil.
The reward every time is a bamboo tube of soybean oil. Add a little when cooking. It is much more delicious than boiling it in plain water with only a little salt.
This bamboo tube of soybean oil is enough for the family for half a month.
A tube of oil was put into the empty jar, covering the bottom, and it finally looked less empty.
Chen's mother was very happy and encouraged her daughter, "Well done, if you line up again, it will be better than this."
Chen Jiaoniang nodded fiercely and ran to line up again.
Yi Gui is different. She leads a group of younger brothers and sisters to sweep around. She ranks in every team. She works hard when she knows how to do it. Sometimes she wins, sometimes she becomes familiar with it.
If you don't know how to do it, just learn it now. Anyway, you can play everything. After playing randomly, she won a lot of things.
But she was an orphan from Yushantang, and the rice, flour, grains and oils were useless, so she divided them into two, one with more food and one with less.
She sent the smaller portion to Chen Siniang, and the larger portion to the county government.
She poked her head around the county government office. In the huge county government office, there was only one old government official guarding the porter.
Seeing that she was a young lady, he wandered over and asked, "What are you doing here? You are playing outside."
The event venue was located in a large open space outside the county government office, and Zhao Hanzhang was willing to call it a square.
At this time, the place extending all the way to the main street was bustling with people and very lively.
But the county government office not far away was very quiet. The government officials and officials had all gone out to organize activities and maintain order. No one dared to come to the county government office, so there was only one old government official here.
Yi Gui carried the things in the basket and asked a little cautiously: "Isn't the girl in the Yamen?"
Nowadays, the only person in Xiping County who can be called a girl is Zhao Hanzhang, so the old yamen officer did not ask which girl it was, and said directly: "They are playing outside, didn't you see?"
Yi Gui shook his head.
The old government officer waved his hand and said: "Let's go, let's go, we'll look for you outside."
Yi Gui hesitated for a moment, then handed the basket over, "This is the rice, flour, grain and oil I won, can you give it to the girl for me?"
"The girl doesn't allow us to collect your things, you can take them back and eat them yourself."
"I am from Yushantang, and my food and accommodation are all provided by the girl. There is no use in taking these things back, so please help me give them to the girl."
Hearing that she was from Yushantang, the old yamen official hesitated and accepted it, "I'll pass it on for you, but I don't know if the girl will accept it."
Zhao Hanzhang was talking to Chen Fang and several others.
Zhao Hanzhang did not expect that Xiajiao Village could come to the county town to participate in activities even though it was so far away. He was very pleased with their enthusiasm.
Chen Fang's face turned red and he said excitedly: "Everyone in the village wanted to buy some New Year's goods. I heard that there was an event in the county and they could see girls if they came, so they all came."
Zhao Hanzhang did not expect that he would become a living sign and asked: "Why do you want to see me?"
Chen Fang smiled naively, "We won't do anything. We will feel relieved when we see the girl is well."
Zhao Hanzhang laughed, nodded and said: "I'm fine. It's cold today, so you should also take care of your health. You will still need to cultivate the land after spring."
The village chief and clan elders of Shangjiao Village quietly squeezed over. From a distance, Qian Jin recognized Zhao Hanzhang and pointed her out to the village chief and them.
The village chief squeezed over and hesitated several times, but he couldn't say it in front of everyone. When Zhao Hanzhang finally finished dealing with Li Zheng and others and was about to leave, the village chief immediately stepped forward.
Qiu Wu glanced at him, turned the scabbard in his hand, and placed his hand on the handle.
Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him, then smiled and greeted the village chief, "Which village is my husband from?"
The village chief said sheepishly: "I am from Shangjiao Village..."
Zhao Hanzhang immediately said: "So you are from a friend's village. Are you here to buy new year's goods, or are you here specially to participate in an event?"
The village chief said hurriedly: "They are all there, they are all..."
He looked embarrassed, and Zhao Hanzhang made a gesture of listening.
The village chief then asked dryly: "The girl took in the refugees before, but do you still take them in now?"
Zhao Hanzhang saw the words "If you accept it, I will become a refugee when I go back" engraved on the left side of his face and the words "Say it quickly, say it, accept it quickly" written on his right face, what she wanted to say was stuck in her throat.
She promised Ji Yuan to take it easy and not take action against Cai County for the time being.
