Scholar’s Sweetheart - Chapter 450
A month later, it’s August of the lunar calendar.
Shahe county’s harvest is basically collected, dried and sold to the business. July and August are the busiest and busiest months of the year in Shahe county.
When the raisins, cotton and red dates were all transported away by the merchants, Lu Yunkai’s edict also arrived, followed by the new county magistrate.
In the past, the last magistrate of Shahe County left, but the next magistrate didn’t want to come at all. Many of them would delay their arrival for a year or two. But now because Shahe county has become a place in the eyes of the emperor, everyone thinks it’s a piece of fat, so they are all scrambling to come. So after the new County order is decided to come, the new County order comes in a hurry.
Lu Yunkai knows that the new county magistrate likes Shahe County, and he can also guess what the new county magistrate thinks about Shahe county. However, he will not reveal much. If he can safely stay at the border for so many years, he will not only let people plant land. He will not plant trees by himself, and let others use all the shade.
So I simply handed over the government affairs, and I was ready to leave with song Xintong.
On the day he left, the twins were excited. Song Xintong was also full of expectations for the future, but for the people of Shahe County, he was reluctant to give up. In their short years of life, they have met many county magistrates, but the best one is Lu county magistrate. Lu county magistrate gives them enough food and clothing, and also gives them a good life. If they can, they want to keep Lu county magistrate.
So when Lu Yun drove his car to leave the city, the common people sent each other, carrying baskets and carrying baskets, which were full of things they wanted to give to Lu county magistrate.
“Lord Lu, don’t go, don’t go…”
“Lord Lu, please stay…”
“My Lord, what shall we do when you leave…”
The shouting people did not notice the embarrassment on the new magistrate’s face, and continued: “my Lord, our family a Shuang is about to get married. Do you remember that you helped her up when she fell down five years ago? She’s going to get married. You can stay and take part in her marriage
Lu Yunkai waved his hand. “The new Mr. Zhou is a top three Jinshi this year. He is also a good official who works for the people. You can find Mr. Zhou for anything in the future.”
The magistrate of Zhou county came out at the right time and arched his hand. “Although Lord Lu left Shahe County, we will continue to work for you in the future. You can rest assured.”
Some merchants are not happy in their hearts. The magistrate of Lu County never calls himself an official, and he will not be superior.
“It’s getting late. It’s time for us to start.” Lu Yunkai arched his hand to all the people: “I hope you take care of it.”
Song Xintong also waved goodbye to everyone.
“Lord Lu…”
“Madam…”
“Can’t you not go?” Some women were very reluctant to give up and kept crying, “why did they leave?”
“My Lord, it’s a long way to go. You can take these to eat on the way…” someone held up the mutton bun made by himself, trying to squeeze through the crowd and go to the front.
“Yes, my Lord, we made some oil cakes, which are your favorite. Please take some to eat on the road…”
“My Lord, take these chickens with you. Kill them on the way…”
“My Lord, you can take a few more sheep, and kill them when you want to eat on the road…”
Hearing the cry of the common people, the twins covered their mouths and kept laughing. If the family raised cattle and horses, wouldn’t they have to send their horses to kill and eat on the road?
“No, we’ll keep it at home or sell it for money.” Lu Yunkai rejected the living creatures and left a few steamed buns and fragrant tea which were made by everyone himself. “We have received everyone’s wishes, but there are too many things for us to take, so let’s take them back.”
“It’s a long way to go. It’s time for us to go.” Lu Yunkai once again arched his hand, “all the banquets in the world come to an end. Please cherish them.”
After that, he pulled the reins, and the horse in his crotch walked out of the city. The group walked along the official road of Yuexiu to the capital.
They walked in the front, and the people followed behind. They wanted to see them off. Along the way, they met many people from other counties who came to see them off spontaneously.
Lu Yunkai didn’t want to stir up the crowd, so he didn’t tell anyone when he left, but he didn’t think that the people in the county were well informed and soon spread the news to several nearby counties.
Lu Yunkai and the crowd waved, “let’s go back. There’s no need to see each other off.”
“Lord Lu, I don’t know if I can see you again. Let’s see you off.” There is humanity.
“If you come to Beijing in the future, you can come to Lu’s house and look for us.” In fact, Lu Yunkai doesn’t like the scene of parting. He doesn’t want to leave his wife and children, people he cares about, or people he has been with for six years. But all the banquets in the world come to an end, so he has to leave first.
Lu Yunkai arched his hand with the crowd again. He didn’t speak any more. He drove the horse straight ahead.
“Walk slowly, my Lord.”
“Have a good trip, my Lord.”
“Madam, walk slowly…”
“Young gentlemen, take your time…”
One after another, the sound of farewell kept ringing in the direction behind them. The twins looked back at the people in Shahe County who were seeing each other off ten miles away, and then at Lu Yunkai, who was walking in front of them. At the moment, they felt that their father’s back was particularly resolute and great. Although he was a poor boy, he was the first to win the hearts of the common people. If only they, who are also scholars, could be so loved by the common people.
Lu Yunkai, who is walking ahead, does not know what his two sons think. If he knows, he will scoff. There is no fish in the clear water, and there is no apprentice in the observation. There is no black and white in officialdom, but there is a degree in his heart.
Leaving Shahe County dozens of miles away, the speed of the carriage will be faster, all the way to raise dust, gallop forward.
