Chapter 109: Seven Days

Start from the beginning
                                    

However, Jiang Li did not think so much. She knew that this was unavoidable and the fight with the other party just started. She was aware of this from the beginning.

They arrived at the county yamen in the time of two incense sticks.

As soon as they arrived at the county yamen, Ye Ming Yu cried out, "This county yamen is quite big."

Jiang Li looked at the entrance of the county yamen and her eyes moved.

When Xue Huai Yuan was in office, in order to cut down on expenses, the county yamen was continued to be used as before. Aside from those that really needed to be repaired and renovated, the county yamen looked very simple and crude.

However, the county yamen in front of them was totally different from the previous one. The entire yamen was newly painted in red and the pillars were carved. Even the board had become burnt gold.

This new deputy county had ample money and knew how to enjoy it very well. But it's not known what kind of means the money used for renovation was collected.

Before meeting face to face, she already formulated a plan for this county deputy.

The leading officer said, "Wait here, I'll inform the Master!"

Jiang Li nodded. She had almost guessed what the other party was about to do. Supposed that the deputy county was a smart person, he would not underestimate the origin of this group of people. But if he put on airs, then he would certainly make them wait here for a while to suffer for a while.

But none of these matters.

Bai Xue said, "This was much more imposing than our home's county yamen."

"Who knows what kind of dirty money was used." Ye Ming Yu disdainfully said, "If he were to use the money used for renovating the county yamen for the poor, I think there would not be so many beggars on the street."

Jiang Li said, "Uncle can see it clearly."

"Of course." Ye Ming Yu nodded, proud of himself.

Sure enough, as Jiang Li expected, the other person indeed let them wait for a while. At least, in the time for an incense stick to burn, there was no one from the county yamen who came out to welcome them. The officer in charge of looking after them feigned ignorance to any questions. After standing for a long time, with no tea served, Ye Ming Yu was thirsty and said impatiently, "What are these people dilly-dallying for? Are they still going to meet or not?"

"People who think they are great also do this face saving things." Jiang Li smiled and said, "Wait for a while, I think it will be soon."

"Why?" Ye Ming Yu asked.

"He is going to call us when he sees that we get anxious waiting. Since uncle has lost your patience, he saw that you are not comfortable, thus he will feel at ease. Naturally it's not necessary to let us wait any longer."

Ye Ming Yu was angry, "So he just wants to let us feel uncomfortable, is he? What kind of person is this?"

"I also want to see what kind of person he is." Jiang Li said with a smile on her face.

After waiting patiently for a while, someone finally came out from inside. However, it wasn't the leading officer just now, rather it was an ordinary attendant. After he walked to the front of Jiang Li and her group of people, he sized them for a while before saying, "Master permitted you to go in."
