Chapter 159: Give way

"What are you talking about? We are husband and wife and we should advance and retreat together..."

Jiang Miao didn't feel aggrieved. There were always more methods than difficulties, and the people in Zhenjiang Mansion were not vicious people. As long as the victims were stabilized, the rest of the matter would be much easier.

"Miaoya, it's great to have you."

Shen Yanqing's chest was burning. How could he be so virtuous as to marry a woman like Jiang Miao? Not only would she not complain about him, but she would also share the joys and sorrows with her.

"Then my husband must treat me well..."

Jiang Miao pouted delicately and wrinkled her little nose, making her look cute but not coquettish.

"I, Shen Yanqing, will only be kind to Jiang Miao in this life, and I will only love her. If I violate this oath, I will be punished by thunder..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Miao covered his mouth.

"Why are you saying this to curse yourself?"

Jiang Miao was not a superstitious person before, but since she entered the book, she has become taboo about these ghosts and gods, so Shen Yanqing swore that her first reaction was to stop them.

"Everything I say is true. If I fail to do it, God will punish me!"

"If you really change your mind, I won't wait for God to punish you, I will kick you myself!"

Jiang Miao snorted. She couldn't tolerate sand in her eyes anyway. If you are ruthless, I will leave. No one can make her unhappy.

"That day won't happen!" Shen Yanqing promised emphatically. He just thought about Jiang Miao leaving him, and his heart ached so much.

"I won't change my mind..." So Miaoya don't leave him.

Shen Yanqing's arms tightened unconsciously, and Jiang Miao was almost choked by him.

"I know, I know, let me go first. It won't be good if we bump into someone later..." She said and pushed him away from him with her fingers. Shen Yanqing was too clingy now. When the two of them were alone together, , he just likes to cuddle and cuddle, wishing he could stay together twelve hours a day.

"We are husband and wife, so what if we are bumped into?"

Shen Yanqing looked reluctant, but still let go of her with his arm. Jiang Miao felt funny in her heart and stretched out two fingers to pinch the corners of his mouth and lift it up.

"You are already a county magistrate, why are you still acting like a child? Anyone who sees you will laugh at you."

"Just for you to see."

Shen Yanqing pinched her finger and kissed it. The affection in his eyes was so strong that Jiang Miao blushed and pulled her hand back.

"I don't know who I learned this glib tongue from, I can't even speak to you!"

She seemed angry more like being coquettish, with the charming and charming attitude of a little daughter. A doting smile flashed in Shen Yanqing's eyes. He was glib, but it was all out of love, but he did not say these words to avoid unnecessary trouble. Jiang Miao's face turned redder.

"Mrs. Shen Zhuangyuan, the noodles are cooked, you can eat them quickly."

Liang Duo knocked on the door outside, and when Shen Yanqing opened the door, he handed over the tray in his hand.

There were two white porcelain bowls on the tray, each containing half a bowl of noodles. It was just the simplest boiled noodles without seasonings and side dishes, but neither of them disliked it. After all, this was already considered the norm in Zhenjiang Prefecture where food and clothing were in short supply. The most precious food.

"Thank you."

"Shen Zhuangyuan, you're welcome. Now the only thing the county government can sell is this bowl of plain noodles..."

Liang Duo smiled mockingly to himself. If it had been a few more days, he might not even be able to make plain noodles.

Shen Yanqing pursed her lips and said with firm eyes, "It will get better."

"Well, I believe that you, the talented Mrs. Shen, will be able to save the people of Zhenjiang Prefecture."

After seeing off Liang Duo, Shen Yanqing went back to the house and invited Jiang Miao to eat noodles. Both of them were hungry now, and they ate the tasteless plain noodles with gusto. After a mouthful of hot soup, they felt comfortable.

"Food is the most important thing for the people, and it's really uncomfortable to not have enough to eat." Jiang Miao sighed. She couldn't stand it after being hungry for just one day. Some of the victims outside had not eaten for several days. How uncomfortable they were. Bar.

"Ms. sir, we must quickly raise food to save them!"

"Well, I will write to Brother Xu and the teacher later." Among the people Shen Yanqing knew, only Xu Ziwen was the richest, and the only one who could help him now was Xu Ziwen.

"Okay," Jiang Miao nodded.

In addition to the Xu family, she had to ask other people, otherwise the Xu family alone would not be able to save so many people. She thought about writing a letter back to Furong Town to ask the previous customers of the dim sum shop if they were willing to contribute money to help the victims.

The two of them had an idea in mind, and each took out a pen and paper to write a letter. In the narrow space, the only sound of writing could be heard.

In the lobby of the county government office, Shi Lei looked at Liang Duo with a dark face and an angry look on his face.

"Brother, what are you thinking? You know that Shen Yanqing is the county magistrate of Zhenjiang Prefecture, but you still let him in. What if he wants to take back the position of county magistrate?"

"If he can save the people of Zhenjiang Prefecture, I am willing to return the position of county magistrate."

When Liang Duo took this position, he was just chasing a duck. He knew how much he weighed and how much he was capable of doing. Otherwise, he would not have watched the disaster in Zhenjiang Prefecture become more and more serious.

"Brother!"

"Brother...you must not do this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he encountered opposition from his brothers. Not only Shi Lei, but others also disagreed with his decision.

"Brother, our occupation of Zhenjiang Prefecture is treason. Although the name of this county magistrate is unfair, it can provide a place for brothers. As long as the city gate is guarded, no one from the imperial court can come in, and we have no life. It's dangerous, but if you give up the position of county magistrate, can you guarantee that Shen Yanqing will not regret it and report our brothers to the court?"

"Yes, brother, the brothers are following you with their heads stuck in their belts. You have to think about it for your brothers!"

No one can be calm about issues involving life and death, and Liang Duo's actions made many people complain.

"It is for your sake that I have to hand over the position of county magistrate."

Liang Duo spoke in a deep voice, and the surrounding area immediately fell silent.

"Brother, why did you say this?" Everyone was puzzled.

They are still safe now because they rely on the protection of the county magistrate Liang Duo. If the county magistrate's position is handed over, wouldn't they become meat on the chopping board and be slaughtered by others?

"Do you really think that the imperial court does not dare to send troops? How long can we people resist? And don't think that if you guard the city gate, everything will be safe. Don't say that the imperial court can open the city gate as long as it sends a thousand soldiers and horses. Even if the emperor If we don’t send troops, we people will starve to death sooner or later if we are huddled in the county government office. Since we are all going to die, why not surrender now?”

Although Liang Duo is not very capable, he assesses the situation and is flexible and flexible. This is the reason why he has mediocre abilities but has a lot of subordinates.

"But what if the emperor still doesn't let us go after surrendering?"

"I will talk to Shen Yan about this. He was born in a poor family and has no influence behind him. The emperor sent him here with the intention of recruiting. Moreover, the previous dog officials were greedy and harmed the people. We are just doing justice for God. I believe the emperor is willing to open up the network. one side.……"
