In the end, everyone agreed to Cheng Yue's proposal.
"That's all for now. I'll make a ledger so it's easier to check. Okay, everyone, go to bed!"
Cheng Yue said happily.
She didn't expect to gain so much on this rainy day.
"Knock, knock, knock! Brother Wu, this is Fuzi, open the door, Brother Wu!"
Just as Cheng Yue finished speaking, there was a knock on the door outside.
Cheng Wu ran out to open the door and brought in two yamen runners.
Everyone in the Cheng family knew these two people. One was called Li Fu and the other was called Lei Dayuan. They were Cheng Wu's followers.
"Uncle, aunt, big brother and sister-in-law, Fatty, you guys haven't slept yet!"
Li Fu and Lei Dayuan obviously didn't expect that the Cheng family was still awake so late at night. After being stunned for a moment, they quickly greeted them.
"Fuzi and Dayuan! What's going on? Why are you here to see Wu so late at night?"
Cheng Shun asked.
"Uncle, there's something going on at the government office, we need to..."
"Hey, they're not strangers. It's okay to tell my uncle, aunt, brother, and sister-in-law!"
Lei Dayuan hesitated and was bumped by Li Fu.
"Uncle, aunt, the new magistrate of Taoyuan County has arrived at the county government office. The previous magistrate, Lord Wu, and his entire family were arrested before nightfall. Coincidentally, Gao was also caught up in the incident and was arrested as well. The new magistrate is a workaholic and never stops. He's gathered everyone from all the departments of the government office together, not just the leaders, but everyone in the government office. So, he sent us to find Brother Wu."
Li Fu said happily.
He is really happy!
He has been tortured by Captain Gao in the past few years. If his family had not given him enough money, Captain Gao would have definitely taken him away.
"What? We have a new county magistrate in Taoyuan County!"
Jiang was shocked.
She hadn't heard a word.
"What are you yelling about? Didn't Wu tell me a few days ago that there were changes in the government office?"
Cheng Shun turned around and glared at Jiang. He looked calm on the surface, but he was no less shocked than Jiang was.
But he has always been like this in front of outsiders.
"Aunt, it's changed. It's really changed. Our new master is a young and promising man. He was originally assigned to Taoyuan County. But he arrived before his servants did, and he directly borrowed soldiers from the prefect and destroyed Tianlong Village. Now even the Black Dragon Gang no longer exists in Taoyuan County. When the people get the news, won't they be overjoyed?"
Li Fu said excitedly.
From his words, it can be heard that he admires the newly appointed county magistrate very much.
"Really? Hahahaha, that's great! That Wu guy has been bullying our Taoyuan County for years, and he thought the higher-ups didn't care! I didn't expect that our Yunzhou prefect is also such a capable person!"
Jiang was also very happy after hearing this.
"Dad, Mom, let's not talk about it for now. Fuzi and the others are going to the government office. Don't wait for me. Go to sleep first. I probably won't be back tonight, so I'll just stay here for the night. I'll come back tomorrow and tell you the details."
Cheng Wu stopped Li Fu who was still chatting and spoke to Cheng Shun and Jiang.
"Go, go! Ning, your mother is watching you, so just do your job well!"
Cheng Shun said seriously.
Only at this moment, he was a relatively normal father.
Cheng Wu left with two followers.
Cheng Yue didn't have much opinion about the new county magistrate, nor was she as happy as Jiang. She took a good bath and went to bed.
But at night she had a dream, a very strange dream.
