    "Mom, has dad been busy lately? I haven't seen him much." Daohua asked.

    Mrs. Li put down the account book in her hand and said solemnly: "The imperial court has sent Prince Rui down to provide disaster relief. Your father must not get busy."

    Daohua wondered: "But isn't the disaster in Linyi County not serious?" Those who need to be busy should be busy in those places that were seriously affected by the disaster.

    Mrs. Li sighed: "It's just because it's not serious that your father is busy resettling those homeless refugees. I heard from Butler Sun that the refugees assigned to Linyi County have been arriving one after another these days. Your father's two  We are already so busy that we eat and drink at the county office in front, so we only go back to the backyard to sleep at night."

    Daohua was slightly surprised: "It seems like dad is very diligent and loves the people."

    Hearing this, Mrs. Li showed a look of pride on her face: "The Yan family is a farming and studying family. Your father understands the suffering and difficulties of the people below him best. Since he took office, he has never failed to care about the people's affairs."

    "Linyi County is the third county where your father took office. In the first two counties, when your father left, many people came to see him off. Every time, my mother received several carts of fruits and vegetables."

    Hearing this, Daohua was really surprised: "Dad loves the people so much, why did my grandmother and I meet the government servants who beat people when we arrived?"

    The smile on Mrs. Li's face faded a bit: "Where can there be no two or three pieces of rat droppings? Your father has already punished those government officials. If something hurts the people again, he will give him a slap in the face and then rush  Leave the county office."

    Daohua feels much better about her father now.

    "Mom, since dad is so good, why hasn't he been promoted?" Daohua asked the question in her heart.

    Mrs. Li sighed: "You can't tell what's going on in the officialdom. Although your father is a good official, there is no one to help him, and our family doesn't have enough money to spend, so the county magistrate has been serving one term after another.  "

    "This time, your father is so busy because he also wants to make some political achievements and see if he can be promoted. Even if he cannot be promoted, he hopes that this assessment can be assigned to a better county."

    Daohua: "Dad is going to take an exam?"

    Mrs. Li nodded: "All officials take a small test every year and a big test every three years. Those with outstanding political achievements will be promoted. Linyi County is not rich, and although your father is diligent, he has not made any political achievements."

    "In this assessment, your father said that unless there is someone above to help speak for you, or you have outstanding political achievements, there is little chance of promotion."

    Daohua put her chin in her hands: "Are our families really not related at all?"

    Mrs. Li lowered her eyes: "It may have something to do with it. Your fourth uncle is already a fourth-rank official in the capital. I heard that he has some friendship with the Zhongzhou prefect, but our family has not been in contact with their family for several years."

    Daohua straightened up and asked in surprise: "Why?" Fourth uncle, this relationship is definitely considered very close.

    Mrs. Li's expression darkened: "Your fourth uncle's family probably thinks that your father's generation will only be involved in the county magistrate, and there is no value in continuing to have a close relationship. In recent years, your aunt has rarely contacted the family."

    Daohua nodded.

    She knew this, she had heard it from her grandmother many times, and she always looked melancholy.

    ¡°Can¡¯t we take the initiative to contact aunt?¡±

    Hearing this, Mrs. Li touched Daohua's head and sighed: "Silly boy, you don't know that if a woman gets married and her mother's family doesn't support her, her life in her husband's family will be very difficult."

    "Your uncle's family has made it clear that they disdain our family. If we continue to disturb your aunt, your aunt's life will be even more difficult."

    "Three years ago, your aunt wrote a letter to tell your father that your uncle had taken a noble concubine. Her words were very sad. Unfortunately, our family could not support her."

    ¡°We failed to help your aunt when she needed us, so why should we have the dignity to go to her now?¡±

    Daohua didn¡¯t know how to answer the conversation. After a while, she asked, ¡°Does grandma not know about this?¡±

    Mrs. Li shook her head: "Your father didn't dare to tell the old lady, because he was afraid that the old lady would do something wrong."

    Afterwards, both mother and daughter were silent.

    Suddenly, Daohua asked with a smile: "Mom, can I go to the front yard of the county government?" She wanted to see how the ancients worked, and by the way, she could use the food grown in the space to replenish her father's health.  , and then contact the relationship.

    Mrs. Li was confused: "That's where your father works. What are you going to do?"

    Daohua: "Didn't you say that dad has been eating in the front yard these days? I will bring him food."

      Mrs. Li thought about it and felt that this could improve the relationship between father and daughter, so she agreed, but she warned: "It's okay to deliver food, but you're not allowed to interfere with other people's work, you know?"

    Daohua nodded immediately: "Mom, my daughter is doing things appropriately, so don't worry."

    Mrs. Li smiled and turned to look at Pingtong: "Watch the big girl and don't let her run around."

    Pingtong smiled and agreed: "Madam, don't worry, I will take good care of the big girl."

    Soon, Daohua became busy.

    County government kitchen.

    When the maids and wives saw Daohua coming, they all stood up and saluted hurriedly.

    "Miss, why are you here?" Mrs. Ren, the person in charge of the kitchen, said with a flattering smile.

    "I want to give dad some food. Let me see what I can do." Daohua wandered around the kitchen and looked carefully at the ingredients.

    Mrs. Ren¡¯s expression paused: ¡°Young lady, you want to cook by yourself?¡±

    Daohua nodded, seeing that Mrs. Ren seemed a little embarrassed, she smiled and said, "Mother Ren, I won't make a mess in the kitchen. As for me, I just want to make soup."

    She knows her own cooking skills, and she dares to say that the food she delivers is entirely based on the fact that the ingredients in the space taste better than the ingredients outside.

    Hearing this, Mrs. Ren breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to praise Daohua's filial piety to the other maids.

    At this time, Pingtong came over with a small bag of white noodles: "Girl, you want the white noodles."

    Daohua nodded and motioned for her to put it aside.

    This white flour is produced by Space. When she was still in Yanjia Village, she put the white flour into other grains and asked her third uncle to deliver it to her.

    After she arrived, she took the noodles to her room.

    Pingtong smiled and asked, "What are you going to do, girl?"

    Daohua picked through the ingredients, selected some green onions, a few eggs, and then said, "Pimple soup!"

    Pingtong: "" Sure enough, we shouldn't have expectations.

    Seeing her speechless look, Daohua immediately said, "What's that expression on your face? The pimple soup I made is very delicious. Didn't everyone say it was delicious last time?"

    Pingtong nodded on his face, but said something in his heart.

    Those are polite words that people say because they don¡¯t want to offend you.

    Of course, this is because she has never drank before, so she thinks so.

    Daohua ignored other people's opinions and started to ask the maid to boil water. Then, under the stunned gaze of others, she poured the egg liquid into the white flour, stirred it a little, and once the water boiled, she poured it directly into the boiling water.

    Mrs. Ren, Heping Tong and others:

    This is the first time I have seen such a crude way of making soup.

    Daohua said, there is space and you can be willful!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
