After the Lu family left, Li Zhi said angrily, "We finally came out to play for a few days, and now we have to go back. If you ask me, I'll just tie him up and throw him into a prison and lock him up for a few days when we go back.
Why are you still fussing over it?"
Xia Ren had no choice but to persuade him, "The Lu family is really going to make a fuss in the county town and is relying on you for some reason. Your father will have to expose you."
Yang Yan nodded in agreement, "Master Li cherishes his reputation the most, but he cannot let it be ruined by these clowns. Zi Jin has found out clearly that what they play is the immortal jump. Since they dare to jump on your head, they will definitely
We need to take good care of them."
Li Zhi responded with a lack of interest, "Okay, let's go back first."
Qin Zijin had to watch the development of the matter and could not escape from his control, so he took his eldest brother Qin Huaidong with him and planned to follow him to the county town to have a look.
The carriage that Li Zhi and others came over was kept at Wu's house at the entrance of the village, and his uncle would go there from time to time to take care of it.
The group went back to Qin's house and tidied up briefly, then went to the entrance of the village, got on the carriage and went straight to the county town.
Qin Zijin originally planned to sit in the back carriage with her elder brother Qin Huaidong, but when she saw Xu Fuguo in the carriage, she went to the front without hesitation and got into Yang Yan's carriage.
Although she didn't hate Xu Fuguo, she couldn't accept Xu Fuguo's constant love and could only avoid him as much as possible.
As for the Lu family, they naturally had no chance to ride in their carriage and had to find their own way. However, as far as Qin Zijin knew, the Lu family had their own ox-cart.
The speed of the horse-drawn carriage is naturally much faster than that of the ox-cart, and the time to the county seat is basically half as fast. However, the Lu family does not know when they will arrive. No matter how fast they are, it will probably be at night.
Qin Huaidong originally planned to find an inn with Qin Zijin to stay, but Li Zhi stopped him and said, "What inn are you looking for? I went to your house and I wasn't polite to you. How can I let you go when I come to the county seat?"
Are you staying in an inn? Let’s go to my house.”
Xia Ren also nodded in agreement, "It just so happens that we have to go see Azhi's father and tell him about this matter."
Li Zhi said angrily, "It's an immortal who jumped, what else did you say to him?"
Yang Yan chuckled and responded, "It's better to say hello first, lest your father beats you up indiscriminately first."
Li Zhi glared at Yang Yan with shame and anger, his tone was tough, but his words were timid, "Just say it."
Qin Zijin laughed to himself when he saw this. It seemed that this man had been beaten by his father a lot.
As soon as Xu Fuguo heard that he was going to the Li Mansion, he backed down and returned to the Xu family. Qin Zijin was still curious, so he heard Yang Yan laugh and say that Xu Fuguo was afraid of seeing Magistrate Li.
Li Zhi's family is not in the county government office, but has a separate mansion in the county town. The Li Mansion occupies a large area. Li Zhi took a group of people back to the Li Mansion. At the door, he heard the concierge saying that County Magistrate Li had not returned from the government office.
.
Li Zhi didn't plan to go in. He looked at a few people and said, "Why don't you go to a restaurant for dinner first?"
The porter said cautiously, "Master, the old lady told you to go to her as soon as you come back."
Li Zhi's eyes lit up and he changed his mind, "Okay, let's stay in the house to eat, then let's go."
As guests, Qin Zijin and the others naturally had no choice but to follow Li Zhi's arrangements.
However, Qin Zijin did not expect that Li Zhi actually planned to take so many of them to see his grandmother.
Qin Zijin pulled Yang Yan's sleeves nervously and asked in a low voice, "We also go to see Mrs. Li? Is this appropriate?"
Yang Yan responded in a low voice, "Don't worry, Mrs. Li loves Li Zhi the most. She loves the whole house as much as she loves the people. As long as they are brought by Li Zhi, there is no one she doesn't like."
Hearing Yang Yan's tone, he seemed to know this old lady very well, and she must have come here too, so Qin Zijin felt a little relieved.
Li Zhi heard the two whispering and comforted him, "Don't worry, my grandmother is very good and won't embarrass you."
As soon as they reached Mrs. Li's yard, Li Zhi shouted, "Grandma, my grandson has brought his friends to see you."
Soon I saw an old woman wearing a dark red printed brocade robe, with her hair pulled up with silver threads, and a black sapphire-inlaid forehead balm. She came out with a kind smile and high energy.
"Oh my dear grandson, you disappeared yesterday. Where did you go to the wild? Ren'er and Yan'er are here too. Hey, who are these two?"
Li Zhi went over to support the old man. He changed his behavior from the young master before. He was as obedient as a child. He smiled and responded, "Grandma, these are the new friends I made in the countryside. Brother and sister, this is my brother Qin Huaidong." , this is my sister Qin Zijin."
The two people hurriedly saluted and said, "I have met the old lady."
As expected by Yang Yan, as soon as she heard that she was Li Zhi's friend, Mrs. Li narrowed her eyes with a smile and greeted her warmly, "Since you are Zhi'er's friend, don't be so outspoken and follow Zhi'er." Please call me grandma. You haven’t eaten yet. Old Liu, hurry up and tell the kitchen to prepare dinner. You will stay here to have dinner today. Just treat me as an old woman. Don’t stand outside. Hurry up. Come into the house."
The group of people were warmly welcomed into the house. As Li Zhi's new friends, they naturally received a lot of care from Mrs. Li.
I heard that the two of them were ordinary country people. Not only did Mrs. Li not look down upon them at all, she also kept praising Li Zhi for the good friends he had made.
After that, Li Zhi used the skill of talking to tell Mrs. Li what happened in the village.
Mrs. Li didn't believe anything, and she must have known her grandson's temperament, but after hearing Qin Zijin and the others' explanation, she knew that the matter was close to home.
Mrs. Li's face darkened for the first time. The kind old man instantly changed into a majestic old lady. She called her servants in and said, "The master will be back soon. Ask him to come see me directly."
Qin Zijin finally understood the reason why Li Zhi brought them to see Mrs. Li. It was obvious that Li Zhi was afraid of his father, so he decided to turn to his grandmother who loved him so that his grandmother could make the decision for him.
Li Zhi was good at coaxing people. After finishing the complaint, he changed the subject and told Mrs. Li interesting stories in the village, which soon made the old lady smile again.
Mrs. Li would not neglect the guests. She would ask a few questions from time to time and everyone would be taken care of. She was also funny and did not make people feel bored at all.
It was getting dark, and the servants outside sent word that Master Li was here.
Everyone in the room suddenly became awkward. Of course, except for Mrs. Li, Li Zhi, who was originally sitting next to Mrs. Li, stood up and sat down next to Xia Ren in a polite manner.
Without her sweet grandson by her side, Mrs. Li looked at her son who had just walked in with a bit of resentment.
Magistrate Li saluted with an inexplicable look on his old mother's resentful eyes, and then glanced at the juniors beside him.
Under the majestic gaze of Magistrate Li, Qin Zijin hurriedly put away his scrutinizing eyes and followed Yang Yan and others in a polite manner to salute.
