Five of them shouted "Yan Ge is charming beyond measure!"
Liu Yimian had a room cleaned up for herself, and also asked Yan Shenxian to buy some new daily necessities. She walked back and forth in the county government office by herself. Wu Sisan followed her with a group of people, cautiously looking around at the front hall, the wing rooms in the back, as well as the kitchen, woodshed, and other areas. Liu Yimian felt very sad that this place was indeed a "forgotten corner".
Everywhere was filled with dust and cockroaches, spiders webbing overhead, a mouse scurrying nonchalantly across Yiliu's feet.
"How long has it been since this place was last cleaned?" Liu Yimeng asked in a low voice, her eyes darting to the thick layer of dust on the chair, and she didn't dare sit down.
。
Wu Si San wiped the sweat, secretly turned his head to make eye contact with Cai Kuang, he had already offended the new master once, this time he didn't dare to speak out of turn, lest he lose his rice bowl, although this job was not well-regarded, at least he could mix a mouthful of rice to eat, he was so old, if he lost this easy rice bowl, it would be hard to find another good job like this.
The bailiffs stared at each other in surprise, saying that Liu Yimeng was the little white face's bailiff. Sun coughed and hid behind others, not daring to speak up.
Liu Yimou waited for half a day without seeing anyone, his belly full of anger about to explode, but he opened his mouth and swallowed the fire back into his stomach.
"Don't be nervous, you are the seniors here. I'm new to this position and will need your guidance in the future." Liu Yimiao smiled and turned around, "Wu Si San, you're my mentor, right? You answer this one."
Hearing her say that, Wu Si San felt a sense of relief and hurriedly trotted over, "Replying to the master, it's only been three or four months since we last swept."
"...just three or four months?" Liu Yimeng took a deep breath.
"Because of the shortage of manpower, it's not possible to sweep frequently, so I thought that when the new master arrives, we can do a thorough cleaning once and for all. Originally, yesterday was supposed to be the day for sweeping, but unfortunately, this humble servant had too much to drink and forgot...” Wu Si San honestly admitted his mistake, with an embarrassed expression, "It's this humble servant's dereliction of duty, otherwise I can lead people to sweep now?"
"Never mind, let's do it tomorrow," said Liu Yimeng with a weak wave of her hand. "Everyone is tired today, go home and rest, and please be on time tomorrow!"
"Thank you, sir. I bid farewell." The four captors all let out a sigh of relief and quickly walked away.
Wu Siyi was about to slip away quietly when Liu Yimeng called out, "Wu Shifu, wait! I have something to ask you!"
That night, Liu Yimiao couldn't fall asleep until midnight due to the sound of mice rummaging through boxes. She was actually very tired but had trouble sleeping in a new bed. This was her first long-distance trip, traveling far away for work, and she thought it would be easy, thinking of it as a vacation, waiting for Old Liu to miss her and come pick her up.
But in reality, it's far from being that simple. Being alone and away from home is really unbearable, just like having a mouse running around in your heart.
。
"Take advantage of my absence and enjoy yourself quickly, hum!" Liu Yimeng turned over, mumbling unclearly.
The next morning, Liu Yimeng woke up with a yawn and a pair of panda eyes, being disturbed by the clanging sound. "Can't even let people sleep!" She half-opened her eyes and slowly made her way to the public hall, but was choked by the dust that came rushing towards her, causing her to sneeze several times. Upon closer inspection, she found that the four great catchers were fully armed and sweeping the house.
"You're all so stupid, first pour water!" The delicate flower emerged from under the table with a gray head and dusty face, pinching her nose to search around the corner, "Where else are there rat holes?! Auntie will wipe you out in one go!"
"Jiaohua sister, here, here! There's one!" Patrol officer Xiao Li excitedly pointed at the corner of the wall under the "Ming Mirror High Hanging" sign and shouted.
"Hey! The old lady is here!" Jiaohua rushed over with a jar of water mixed with rat poison.
"Haha, it must be Mouse County that lives here. I wonder if they will ascend to the hall?" Little Li excitedly speculated.
"Get out, you little scamp!" Captain Da Sun yelled back at Little Li, one hand covering his nose and the other holding a brush, as he stood on the ladder. "How long has it been since we last had an increase in rank here? Even if the mice wanted to learn, there's nowhere for them to do so!"
"That's not necessarily true," said Da Huang, chuckling as he poked his head out from behind Liu Yimeng, "Maybe the mouse's great-great-grandfather eighteen generations ago learned it and then passed it down to its grandson's grandson's grandson..."
"You're just a grandson!" Captain Liu concluded, then turned his head to smile at Liu Yimeng, "Good morning, sir. You're awake."
"Really, everyone's busy?" Liu Yimeng replied with a silly smile, looking a bit embarrassed. "Need help or something?"
"No need, no need, we're almost done." Big Yellow's large black paws waved in front of Liu Yimeng's eyes.
"You're finished, you little scamp!" Wu Si San walked in with a stack of documents and showed his yellow teeth to Liu Yi Mo, "Master, these are the case files from the past decade that you requested..."
"How can this be all?" Liu Yimeng frowned and took it over, flipping through it. "The case of the only hen in Lao Qiao's family being stolen... The case of Xiaoming's dog and Xiaohua's dog gathering to fight... What a mess!" Liu Yimeng angrily threw the document back into Wu Sisan's hands. "I say, Master Wu, don't play tricks on people like this?"
!”
"Sir, I don't dare to deceive you," Wu Si San said with a scrunched up face. "It's really just this much. If something happens in someone's household, they won't come looking for the government office, and neither do I want it to be like that..."
"Is that really the case?" Liu Yimeng fell silent, lost in thought amidst the swirling dust. Yesterday she had also asked Wu Sisan about some basic information regarding Luoshui County, and from what she had seen with her own eyes, it seemed that the government office was indeed not valued by the common people of Luoshui County.
"Yes, old master, Wu Shiye was right... my son even mocks me for being a catcher..." Da Huang scratched his head and chuckled foolishly twice. The originally lively atmosphere suddenly became quiet, he looked around and also closed his mouth to focus on his work, with a hint of melancholy flashing in his eyes.
"Hmm, nothing, nothing... " Liu Yimeng also felt the sudden chill in the air and smiled awkwardly. "That was before when our boss wasn't around, but now that our boss is here, we only have one heart, top to bottom. Let's show the people of Luoshui County that being a constable is also a great profession, hehehe..."
The coldest scene.
Jiaohua flooded the old mouse hole, then blocked the entrance tightly. Then she walked over, splashing water on Liu's face and rolling her eyes, "Hehehe!"
"......" Liu Yimiao made a funny face at her and then changed the subject, "Everyone must be hungry, right? It seems like it's time to eat..."
"Ah! I forgot to buy groceries!" Xiaohua suddenly remembered that there was still the matter of eating, and hastily rolled up her sleeves, ready to rush out. She rushed halfway before turning back, "I'm not familiar with this place, Little Li, can you take me?"
"Alright, Jiaohua sister!" Xiao Li was actually around the same age as Jiaohua, and might even be a bit older, but he looked delicate and had a set of white teeth. He had been feeling uneasy about mistaking Jiaohua for a ghost yesterday, so today he was being especially enthusiastic towards her.
"No need... " A clear and elegant voice cut in, everyone turned around at the same time to look, it was Yan Shenxian.
"Yan Ge, have you gone to buy vegetables?" Liu Yimeng opened her big eyes and looked at his slender fingers, one hand holding a huge bamboo basket, with a large backpack behind him, all filled with vegetables, red, green, yellow, everything was there.
"Ah, Miss Jiao said I wasn't needed here, so I just took a stroll around the market." Liu Yimeng noticed that Yan Shen's pale face had a suspicious flush, but she didn't have time to think about what kind of situation could make this usually calm young man blush. "Brother Yan, how can you do such rough work? A musician's hands are extremely important, you'll hurt them... the Emperor will scold me..." She quickly walked over and made him put down the basket, pulling his hand to look at the red marks left by the straps, getting anxious and jumping up and down.
。
Watching Liu Yimeng continuously blowing air onto Yan Shenxian's hand, Wu Sisan sniffled in grievance. It seems that in this county government office, he himself will probably be ranked third.
"This Young Master Yan has a pretty big background!" Da Sun sighed in admiration.
"I actually think he's quite pleasing to the eye, he's really handsome, I've only seen one man more handsome than him, and that's Gongzi Yao." Da Huang said with envy as he sneaked up to him.
"Are you saying he might be Old Master's brother? Hehe..." Big Liu whispered into his ear, and the three of them started whispering to each other.
"Koyanagi, it's just a small matter." Yan Shenxian smiled and withdrew his hand, "Don't worry about it."
"It's all right!" Liu Yimiao let out a sigh of relief, glanced at the two baskets on the ground, and then tiptoed to peek into the backpack behind him. "But why are they all vegetarian dishes? And why did Brother Yan buy so many at once? Can he finish them?"
"It's just that it costs a lot of money, not like we have too much money to spend!" Wu Si San's eyes were filled with heartache, and he began to belittle others in order to fight for the goal of being "the second in the county government"!
"I forgot to bring money out, so I couldn't buy meat dishes and didn't dare remind them to throw some meat over...” Yan Shenxian looked embarrassed all over his face. Seeing that everyone was silent, he quickly said, "Otherwise, I'll go again, and return the basket and backpack to the two kind old ladies."
"...As expected, a noble person often forgets things, even forgetting to bring money when buying vegetables!" Wu Si San persisted in mocking him, but his eyes darted around nervously. Being handsome is indeed a valuable asset! He envied Yan Shen Xuan, thinking that if he looked like that too, he would have already won back Zhang Da Niang from Sesame Alley!
"Does Brother Yan mean that you bought all these vegetables without spending a single penny?!" Liu Yimeng's eyes widened with sparkling golden light, and a shameless thought quickly sprouted. She cleared her throat, "Jiaohua, from now on, every morning, you'll accompany Brother Yan to buy vegetables... Ah, remember to guide the aunties and grannies to throw more meat! The silver saved can be used to hire a cook, so you won't have to do the cooking!"
