"Sir, this is all for us. He's gone days and nights without sleep, distributing grain house to house, gathering grain from various places, and leading inspections everywhere. He is a good official; he cannot be let into trouble because of this!"
As he spoke, he kowtowed, thinking of the Magistrate Chu Deyun of Changping City, and contrasting him with this considerate little county magistrate, it was truly lamentable.
"He'll awake soon; don't be too worried."
The red-faced messenger's heart settled as he stood tremulously, and Ruan Mian only then noticed that his legs seemed somewhat impaired.
Noticing her gaze, the messenger said, "I... my legs have been like this since childhood, but Lord County Magistrate doesn't disdain me at all, even gave me a job! I'm very grateful to him! Now, our county has run out of grain, desperately awaiting disaster relief food."
