Chapter 657 The reward given by the adults

The expressions of Ma Lu and the others moved slightly, and they clenched their fists suddenly, feeling faintly excited.

Sure enough, the next moment, I heard Lord Cheng say, "It happens that the Japanese official is here today. If you have any requirements, you can ask. As long as it is within a reasonable range, this official can give you a promise."

These words are clever and within a reasonable range... Isn't it your decision?

But for Ma Lu and others, this promise of becoming an adult is very valuable.

Several people looked at each other, and for a while, they really couldn't say what reward they needed.

After all, they never thought that they would meet the Governor here, and the other party would give them a promise.

Lord Cheng saw this, "Why don't you discuss it, this official will give you half an hour."

"No, there is no need for adults, the little ones have already made up their minds." With a glance at each other, they already knew it.

Sir Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Then talk about it."

"Sir, the little ones want a mule cart. Also, after half a month, you can have a day off to leave Zhengdao Village and go outside."

Lord Cheng gave an "oh", thought about it and said, "Okay, this official has agreed."

Ma Lu and the others were overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you sir, thank you sir."

Hunting can take a day off after half a month, and they can sell the extra prey they usually hunt.

With mule carts, they can go to the county seat, and even to the prefectural city.

They all committed the same crime and were exiled here. After half a year, they will be able to regain their freedom and enter and leave Zhengdao Village at will.

Before this, they wanted to save more money and have a better life in the future.

Sir Cheng responded to the request of Ma Lu and several others, and then looked at Fang Xiyue again, "How about you? What do you want?"

Fang Xiyue had never seen such a big official before. When the other party looked at her, she immediately knelt on the ground and swallowed nervously.

Lord Cheng is funny, "Don't be nervous, this official doesn't eat people, you can just say what you want."

Fang Xiyue couldn't help looking at Shu Yu, who nodded to her, and she took a deep breath and said, "I, I want to beg your kindness, my father has been seriously injured since he arrived in the exile. , I can't go to work in the field, I, I want to ask the adults to relieve my father from the work during this time."

The official next to him was clever and explained in a low voice, "Sir, Fang Xiyue's father was beaten by the local government before he came. When he arrived at Zhengdao Village, his injuries worsened and he almost died. But now that he has seen the doctor, he is slowly recovering. Woke up."

Lord Cheng nodded, this is a trivial matter, and the other party is seriously ill and it is not impossible to accommodate.

So he responded, "Okay, is there anything else?"

"Also, and also, please, Lord, give my mother another job."

It's not that Fang Xiyue never thought of telling her family's grievances to the governor, but A Yu has analyzed it with her, and there are not many people who have been wronged and exiled in Zhengdao Village.

What's more, even if he wanted to take care of it, the Fang family's case was decided by the local government, and Lord Cheng's hand couldn't reach that far. Every place has the responsibilities of officials, and Lin Zhang's house is only responsible for guarding prisoners.

If Fang Xiyue wanted Lord Cheng to overturn the case for her family, not only would it fail, but it would make Lord Cheng even more displeased, so she might as well give her some practical requirements.
