The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

   Chapter 196 197 Two Mountain Bandits Perish

  Everyone is busy in the yard, and they don't know that it has been spread in Qingchuan City. Everyone is talking about that Zou Zude's two in-laws are not virtuous in their work, and the gods have appeared, and the news of the two in-laws' retribution has spread throughout Qingchuan City.

Mr. Qian ran back from the yamen and said to Li Yu: "Madam, people from the Zou clan have come to report the case, saying that Zou Zude's two in-laws were paralyzed by someone who broke their tendons and hamstrings last night. The Zou family came to ask Li's mother and daughter Would you like to go back and take care of the two in-laws? If you don’t, the property of the Zou family will be given to the Zou clan, and the two in-laws of Zou Zude will be taken care of by the Zou clan.

  Li Yu looked at Li's mother and daughter and said, "What do you think, tell Mr. Qian, he will help you do it!"

  Li took Zou Xia, knelt down and said, "Madam, I want to leave the Zou family and set up a female household, please help me!"

Li Yu nodded and said: "You get up first, don't kneel at every turn! You can also set up a female household. My Zhuangzi outside the city also hires people to feed pigs, chickens and ducks. If you want, you can also go to my place to work as a long-term worker. ."

  Li's mother and daughter shed tears of joy, "Thank you Madam, I am willing to go."

Seeing that the Li family decided to leave the Zou family, Mr. Qian thought: This is the most sensible decision. After the Zou family's property has been waited for a hundred years from Zou Zude, the Zou family will definitely die, and the property will be taken away by the Zou family. Mother and daughter can't keep anything.

  Mr. Qian helped Li's mother and daughter to move out of the family. Finally, Tu Dianshi helped Li to set up a female household. Li changed Zou Xia to Li Xia, and lived in Zhou's house with peace of mind to help.

   After Zhou Jia and Shen Wu took their men down the mountain, they rushed to Dalou Mountain without stopping. The head of Hutouzhai had already learned the news and sent people to guard the pass. After the two sides could not stand for two days,

Shen Wu had the arrow shafts be tied with grease-soaked sackcloth near the arrows, and the soldiers fired at the mountain bandits behind the pass. With nowhere to hide, he turned and ran up the mountain in fright.

  Shen Wu sent people to take the opportunity to rush into the cottage, and the people behind started to put out the fire and entered the cottage. Shen Wu directed everyone to continue attacking the cottage with rockets. The stockade was surrounded by rockets, and the bandits escaped from the stockade.

  After half a day of fierce fighting, Hutou Village was also annihilated in one fell swoop. This time, hundreds of officers and soldiers were killed or injured. The property, land deeds, gold, silver, jewelry and food seized were even more abundant than Qinglong Village!

   So far, the Hutou Village, which has been entrenched in Qingchuan for many years, has also disappeared!

   As usual, some of the gold and silver jewelry were taken out and distributed to the dead and wounded officers and soldiers as well as the soldiers who were fighting. Everyone loaded the food and gold and silver jewelry into mule carts, hung them on horseback, and pulled the spoils and prisoners down the mountain.

When    entered the city, the people of Qingchuan came to greet them, and they were all celebrating the demise of the two mountain bandits who had been entrenched in Qingchuan for many years!

After entering the city, Shen Wu looked at the more than 20 boxes of treasures in the house and said to Zhou Jia: "Brother Zhou, look at this, the property deeds of the people of Qingchuan that were stolen by the mountain bandits are returned to the people, and the food is left to the county government. Come on, keep ten boxes of these things and hand them over to the court, and leave two boxes for you to repair the city wall, and the rest will be divided into three parts, one for you and my brother, and one for the general, then I will take it back!"

   Zhou Jia patted Shen Wu on the shoulder and said, "Brother Shen, why do you and my brother talk too much, you can arrange it!"

  Shen Wu looked at Zhou Jia with some pity, "It's a pity that Brother Zhou is a civil official, we should join the military, we brothers fight side by side."

   Zhou Jia shook his head and smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be better for our brothers to work for Dayong with one piece of literature and one martial arts!"

   "Yes!" The two looked at each other and laughed.

   Shen Wu left behind the gold and silver for repairing the city wall and rebuilding the county office, and reported the gold and silver treasures to the imperial court, suppressed the captured bandits, and returned to Qingzhou with the remaining officers and soldiers and Steward Ouyang.

Zhou Jia sent Shen Wu out of the city gate, went home and took Li Yu to the warehouse where the loot was stored, pointed to a few boxes of gold and silver jewelry and said to Li Yu: "Yu'er, look, this is the treasure seized by the two stockades, Brother Shen took away what was handed over to the court and left to General Shen, these are ours! Also, the money for repairing the city wall and building the county government office has been reserved in advance!"

Li Yu looked at the dazzling gold and silver jewelry in the room, and was also shocked. He thought: No wonder those who led soldiers in ancient times liked to fight and siege cities. These two mountain bandit dens are the gold and silver jewelry that they have shared. , is also luxurious enough to spend to old age!

   "Only we and Shen Wu have a share?"

   Zhou Jia hugged Li Yu and said with a smile: "All officers and soldiers participating in the bandit suppression, casualties, and Ruyi, Xu Chun, all have their share. This is an unwritten rule, you can keep it at ease!"

  Li Yu looked up at Zhou Jia and said softly, "Well! Then I can rest assured!"

Zhou Jia said with a gratified smile: "The mountain bandits have been wiped out, and the county office has money. We can rebuild the county office with peace of mind, repair the streets in the city, and return the fields that the mountain bandits forcibly occupied, and restore the unowned fields. Sell ​​it," Zhou Jia happily kissed Li Yu's face and smiled confidently, "Yu'er, I'm busy!"

   "Go now! I'm going to the wasteland to see too!" Li Yu sent Zhou Jia to the door, turned around and entered the house, stored the treasure in the space, and went out to the wasteland.

  Xiaoyu was also taken aback by the gold and silver jewelry that Ruyi gave her, grabbed Ruyi's clothes and said, "Is it really ours?"

Ruyi smiled and nodded: "Young Master and Madam said, this is what I deserve, let me hand it over to you, Xiaoyu, remember to pick up those without marks, and those with marks will be melted and beaten later. can be used later.”

  Xiaoyu picked up a beautiful hairpin and looked at it, then shook her head and said, "I'm not used to using these things. You see, Madam never brings these pearls, and her hair is always tied with a hosta!"

   said with a satisfied smile: "Okay, do what you think is good."

Zhou Jia asked the yamen to go to various villages to publicize, and let the villagers who were robbed of their fields and houses by the mountain bandits, as well as people in the county, come to the county government to retrieve the fields and properties that were robbed by the mountain bandits with their household registration and the certificate of the village chief and neighbors. .

For several days, some villagers came to collect their certificates and household registrations. After the villagers took back their fields and houses, they knelt in front of the yamen and shouted: "Master Qingtian, we Qingchuan people finally welcome them. Come on, a good official!"

  Zhou Jia, Envoy Tu Dian and Mr. Qian, watching the villagers look happy and grateful, their hearts are sour and sweet! Zhou Jia stepped forward to help the people who were kowtowing and thanked them, and said, "Everyone, please get up quickly, these are what officials should do, and they shouldn't be such a big gift!"

   Everyone got up and saluted Zhou Jia: "Master Zhou, you are a good official and an honest official, we Qingchuan people are blessed!"

   In the second half of September, Xu Dong returned to Qingchuan and reported the news of Qingzhou to Zhou Jia, and the brothers stayed in Qingchuan to help with peace of mind.
