Chapter 2864 Evaluation
Fang Xiancheng and others who were listening attentively in the back fell silent. So, although the gender of the baby is determined by the man's bloodline, the gender of the baby is determined by heaven?
County Magistrate Fang couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sir, is there a chance of having a son or a daughter?"
"Generally speaking, half and half."
After leaving the alley, Manbao asked him, "Do you want to go eat?"
Bai Shan glanced down at his green official robe and decided to return to the county office. He called out to the village chief Guo and said, "Let's go back to the county office for dinner."
Village Chief Guo felt a tightness in his heart, knowing that it was his turn next.
Indeed, even the residents of an entire alley were fined, so how could he, the village head, be completely unscathed? Moreover, he and Guo Dacai were relatives.
Village Chief Guo wiped the sweat from his forehead, agreed repeatedly, and went to the county government office with Bai Shan with a hunched body.
Bai Shan was going to have a working lunch here in the county government office. Manbao thought about it and decided that she also had something to say to him, so she decided to stay too.
The county government employed a chef, and officials could eat their working meals in the government office. However, in order to save costs, the working meals in the government office were not very delicious.
Bai Shan thinks so.
He had eaten work meals many times, but this was the first time in his life that he had eaten something so bad, so he ate this meal very elegantly.
Manbao, on the other hand, ate with gusto. Bai Shan looked at her, then looked at her again, and felt that his appetite had improved a lot.
But the village chief Guo who was sitting opposite was not as calm as Bai Shan. He felt very uncomfortable. Bai Shan didn't say anything, and he was very nervous.
Bai Shan had almost finished his meal, so he wiped his mouth and said to the village head Guo: "The people are ignorant. Many people act on impulse, not realizing how bad the consequences of their actions will be, and not realizing that they have violated the law. Therefore, these things require the village head's concern and attention."
Village Chief Guo nodded repeatedly and said "yes".
Bai Shan said, "The county is made up of villages. Although I am the county magistrate, the implementation of my orders still depends on you, especially the village head. You are the one who knows the situation of every household in the village best. If something goes wrong, the county will ask you, and the people also rely on you, so the village head must be fair."
Village Chief Guo wiped the sweat from his forehead and said "yes" repeatedly.
Bai Shan continued, "From now on, Village Chief Guo should pay more attention to the Guo and Wu families, especially the Wu family. They have just suffered a setback and it will be difficult for them to recover in the short term. Now is the busy spring season. We are all neighbors, so we should help if we can."
Village Chief Guo nodded repeatedly, and when he saw that Bai Shan did not scold him, he slowly let go of his heavy heart.
Bai Shan stopped here. After he finished eating, he asked Village Chief Guo to leave.
As soon as he left, Bai Shan turned to Zhou Man and asked, "Have you chosen a place?"
"I've chosen it," Manbao said. "It's just behind Qianmen Street, not far from Baicaotang and Renhetang."
She said, "A two-story courtyard is barely spacious, but Beihai County is small, so we don't need a particularly large place."
Bai Shan asked doubtfully, "Aren't Baicaotang and Renhetang on Qianmen Street? Aren't there shops all along that street?"
"It's not on the main street in front of the gate. It's behind it," Manbao gestured to him and said, "The alley where the main gate is is quite wide. There are some small stalls scattered around, but the rent is cheap, thirteen taels a year."
Bai Shan was surprised, "You even negotiated the price?"
Manbao sighed and said, "There's nothing I can do. The landlord is too enthusiastic."
Bai Shan always felt that she was being cheated, "That's too fast, is there something wrong with the house?"
Manbao said: "It's not a big problem. Apart from being a little remote, there are no other major problems."
County Magistrate Fang thought carefully about the place Zhou Man pointed to, and finally remembered it. He couldn't help but say, "Isn't that place a little remote?"
It was quite remote, the house was in an alley off Qianmen Street.
The alley is indeed not small, but you have to keep going down and down. At the end there is a wall. The yard next to the wall is the house that Zhou Man and his friends want to rent.
But in fact, the alley goes diagonally inward. There is also an alley at the back door of the house, which is much smaller. Across the alley is Baicaotang, and diagonally across is Renhetang.
Well, the backyards of the two halls.
Passing through Baicaotang and Renhetang is Qianmen Street, the most lively street in Beihai County.
The straight-line distance is very short, but to actually reach Qianmen Street, they need to walk up for a quarter of an hour.
It sounds like it doesn't take very long, but Beihai County is so small that it only takes two or three quarters of an hour to walk around the busiest Qianmen Street. A quarter of an hour is really too long for people here.
However, Manbao, who came from Beijing, didn't think so. She thought the location was great. It was not only convenient and cheap, but also spacious and quiet in a bustling city.
It is very suitable for poor patients to come here for treatment.
County Magistrate Fang opened his mouth several times but in the end he didn't say anything.
Bai Shan looked at County Magistrate Fang's face and immediately stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Manbao was stunned, "Don't you want to rest?"
After running all day, she felt a little tired and wanted to rest.
Bai Shan dragged her up and said, "Why are you so tired? Let's go look for a house first. Once we have settled on a house, we can rest at the hospital."
He said, "I'm going to the countryside for an inspection tomorrow."
Manbao perked up and frowned, "Aren't you going to wait for me?"
Bai Shan said, "Will you come after me later? I'll take notes for you. You can write down your questions later and I'll ask you some."
Keke made a ding-dong at the right time, and Manbao immediately said when he heard it: "No need, I will go by myself. Well, let's decide on the house and regulations as soon as possible, and I will go to the countryside with you to see the situation."
Bai Shan couldn't help but smile.
County Magistrate Fang was following behind them, and was hesitating whether to catch up when he saw Chief Secretary Song standing at the door of his office, waving at him.
County Magistrate Fang frowned, but still stepped forward.
Song Zhubu immediately saluted him and asked with a smile, "Master Fang, Master Bai, what are they going to do?"
"Look at the medical office," County Magistrate Fang asked with a frown, "are the grains ready?"
"I've already counted everything. I just came back from the warehouse," said Song Zhubu with a smile. "Just now, Captain Guo came out of there, sweating profusely. I called him twice, but he didn't respond. He looked terrified. What's going on? Did our county magistrate punish him?"
"Indeed, I heard that everyone in the entire alley was fined," Song Zhubu said with a laugh. "Master Bai is making a big deal out of nothing. It's just a conflict between two families, why did he involve everyone in the alley?"
County Magistrate Fang frowned and said, "Lord Bai handled this case very well today. Chief Clerk Song should have been in court. What a pity."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Song Zhubu choked and turned to ask County Magistrate Dong, who was carrying out the meal, "What happened to Lord Fang?"
County Magistrate Dong said as he ate his meal, "County Magistrate Fang is right. Lord Bai handled this case beautifully. Even County Magistrate Lu before his promotion couldn't have done a better job."
