Ding Xiang came to the entrance of the examination room and immediately saw the yamen officer coming out to change his shift (the same one from yesterday), and quickly walked over with his baggage.

"Master, you haven't had breakfast yet. I'll bring you some steamed buns. Don't dislike it." As soon as they met, Dingxiang stuffed the steamed buns to the yamen servant, speaking with a hint of flattery.

The yamen servant was stunned. Although she said so yesterday, he didn't expect her to be so active.

As expected, he is a businessman.

The yamen servant thought with satisfaction in his heart as he opened the baggage. Suddenly, a strong aroma of meat spread out, and another yamen servant standing beside couldn't help but walked over.

"Huh? What is it? It smells so good?"

The yamen servant took a big meat bun and took a bite, then took another one from the bag and threw it to the colleague who was talking: "You come and try it too."

"Little lady, you are too polite. You brought so much. You are running a small business and we cannot let you suffer. Tell us how much it costs. We bought it." The yamen servant found the buns in the bag.

There were at least a hundred steamed buns, which made me feel a little embarrassed.

He just took a bite of a big meat bun, Emma, ​​it was full of meat and plenty of ingredients.

"No, no, no, they are all worthless. Yesterday, this is to reward the officials, and it is also a sentiment from us common people."

"Whatever you want me to say, it will cost you money." Seeing her insistence, the yamen officer didn't feel awkward anymore and accepted her kindness.

"But it's just this once, we will have to pay for it if it is delivered later." It is not appropriate to keep eating and drinking for free.

The county magistrate once had

You should not covet what belongs to the common people. Every penny is the people's fat and the people's anointing.

The reason why he agreed to Ding Xiang yesterday was not because he could take advantage of her, but because he saw that her words were pleasant and he felt comfortable listening to her, so he was willing to help.

When I talked about this matter with my master yesterday, my master also told me that I can’t take other people’s food for free.

Of course, he would never admit it. He only agreed because of her beauty.

"Okay, then I'll charge the cost." Ding Xiang smiled and didn't insist on giving it away.

"Well, sir, you are busy, and I have to go and do my business."

The yamen officer nodded, and after Ding Xiang turned around and left, he distributed some buns and steamed buns to the colleagues who gathered around him, and then took the remaining buns to find the master and the county magistrate.

When he found the county magistrate and the master, the two were chatting and had not eaten breakfast.

As soon as the yamen entered the door, the two of them smelled the aroma of food, and their appetite was immediately aroused.

Before the yamen servant could speak, the county magistrate could not wait to speak.

"Lin Yuanmu, what are you holding in your hand?"

"Oh, this is the proprietress who set up a stall outside our examination room yesterday. She specially brought it over for us to try today." As the officer said this, he stepped forward in a very unruly manner and handed the buns to the county magistrate, "Sir,

please."

The master mentioned this matter to him yesterday, so the county magistrate also knew about it.

But what he didn't know was that the one setting up a stall outside was Lilac.

"Have you paid?" The magistrate took the bun and asked casually.

The yamen servant was stunned. He looked up at the master and didn't know how to answer.

Already.

The county magistrate, who was about to take a bite, frowned when he saw the Yamen servant's gaze: "Let me ask you a question, what do you think Master is doing?"

"Reporting to your lord, the landlady refused to take it, so" the Yamen servant noticed that the face of the county magistrate became darker and darker as he spoke, and he suddenly felt uneasy.

"Lin Yuanmu, didn't I tell you before, every stitch and every stitch is a tribute to the people."

The yamen servant was sweating like rain and cried out in his heart: "Sir, I remember, I always have to remember."

"Then you still do it!"

"Sir, I'm sorry. It's really the boss lady who insisted on giving it to me. She just wanted to express her gratitude simply. It's hard for me to refuse my kindness, but I have already told her that if I don't do it next time, I will buy it from now on."

Fortunately, the county magistrate is not a person who doesn't know how to adapt. After listening to the explanation from the Yamen servant, his face gradually improved.

He picked up the bun and took a slow bite.

After taking one bite, his eyes suddenly grew bigger and he looked at the yamen servant and said, "Lin Yuanmu, these buns are very well made!"

"Yes, it's really delicious."

"Master, come and try one too."

When the yamen servant saw it, he hurriedly took a bun and gave it to the master.

The master reached out to take it, took a bite, and then nodded.

The buns and steamed buns brought in by the yamen servants were neither too much nor too little.

There are more than twenty of them, with various types of buns and steamed buns.

When the magistrate first started eating, he was eating slowly and slowly, then his speed became faster and faster, and finally he simply snatched all the furoshiki from the hands of the Yamen servant.

There are two of us, Master and you, one for you and one for me. We don’t have much to eat.

Also said.

In a short time, these twenty-odd buns and steamed buns were all gone.

The yamen servant saw that the magistrate and the master, who had finished eating the steamed buns, were lying on the chair with their stomachs in their arms, indicating that they were full.
Chapter completed!
