Qixia Town, Qiu Mansion, North Street.

Today's Qiu Mansion is particularly lively. Many passers-by and neighbors on both sides stopped curiously and looked outside the gate of Qiu Mansion.

Looking at the group of yamen runners standing at the gate of the Qiu Mansion, everyone was talking quietly.

"Hey, what's wrong with Mr. Qiu's family? Why are there so many yamen runners at the door?" A middle-aged man who had just been attracted and was not sure about the situation couldn't help but speak out curiously and asked someone.

In front of him, there happened to be a middle-aged uncle who came earlier than him.

"I don't know either, but I heard that County Magistrate Lou, Master Tian, ​​and Deputy Captain Yan just went in."

"Ah! County Magistrate Lou, Master Tian, ​​and Deputy Captain Yan are all here. Mr. Qiu is not doing anything, right?"

The man was shocked when he heard this and asked with concern that although Mr. Qiu was a local squire, he was kind to others on weekdays and the residents of the town had a good impression of him.

"I don't know, but it probably is related to the murder case yesterday afternoon."

The middle-aged uncle shook his head. He didn't know what was going on, but he still had a well-founded guess.

Qixia Town has always been peaceful. Even if it is trivial matters on weekdays, it can be used as a topic of discussion by the residents of the town for a long time, let alone such a life case.

Yesterday, when Mr. Qiu's family discovered the dead, the story of the dead was spread throughout the Qixia Town by word of mouth by the perverted people.

"I also heard about what happened yesterday, but I heard that it seemed that the one who died was not from Mr. Qiu's mansion, but from two people from other places." The man asked.

"Well, I have heard from people about this. But no matter what, it was a dead person. This kind of thing hasn't happened in our Qixia Town for a long time. I think this matter wouldn't end so simply. If you didn't see it, even Magistrate Lou came in person."

The middle-aged uncle signaled to the yamen runner standing at the door and said in a low voice.

The man looked at the five or six yamen runners standing at the door and couldn't help but shake his head, and said with some sigh:

"Oh, you said that Mr. Qiu is such a good person, why did he get into this business? I thought that he would borrow five cents to turn over the money last year."

"Who knows..."

The middle-aged man was about to respond, but at this moment, a man on the side interrupted the conversation between them.

"What are you saying? What's wrong? Your news is too backward. Things are completely different from what you think."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at the man who had just spoken, and there were several other people who heard their conversation.

"Lao Wang, do you know anything? After all, your family lives near Mr. Qiu's house."

"Yes, Lao Wang, if you know something, let me tell you it?"

"Yes, Lao Wang."

...

Everyone asked curiously, and the man who had just spoken out was quite proud to see that everyone's eyes were focused on him, so he saw him whispering to everyone:

"Actually, today's incident has nothing to do with yesterday's murder case. It was because the noble man from Mr. Qiu's family came to visit me. Magistrate Lou hurriedly brought the people from the yamen to pay homage."

The man said proudly, but as soon as he finished speaking, doubts came one after another.

"No way, Lao Wang, what kind of noble man was even alarmed by County Magistrate Lou?"

"That's right, Lao Wang, this news is a bit fake."

"Lao Wang, where did you hear this news?"

Everyone asked in disbelief that for them, there were few high-ranking officials in Qixia Town, and the biggest official they had ever met was County Magistrate Lou.

Moreover, they have lived here for so long and have never heard of the big background of Mr. Qiu’s family before. Why did this suddenly appear? No wonder everyone has doubts.

"Hey, why don't you believe it yet? This is what I saw with my own eyes. Let me tell you, just yesterday morning, I saw an old man with fairy spirit coming to Mr. Qiu's mansion with his own eyes..."

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Lao Wang hurriedly told everyone about his personal experiences.

When everyone around saw Lao Wang's anxious look, they felt that he didn't seem to be lying, and they listened curiously.

But no one noticed that there was one more person in the crowd of people who were eating melons. A little girl in her early teens was listening to Lao Wang's story with anticipation.

She likes to listen to stories the most, especially since this story is related to her mortal enemy, so she likes to listen to them even more.

After wandering around for the whole morning today, she finally encountered something interesting.

This little girl with a strong curiosity is naturally Mo Xiaobei who skipped class this morning.

This morning, after Xiao Bei got rid of the scholar, he first walked around the street alone for a while. Then he returned to the agreed place with Xiao Guo and waited for Xiao Guo's arrival. However, she waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for Xiao Guo's arrival.

In the end, Xiao Bei, who had been patiently exhausted, didn't wait any longer, so she just wandered around alone.

At this time when she should have been in class, she was both excited and nervous, and even a little excited. She finally realized her dream for more than a month.

Since she started attending classes at Baima Academy, she has just been in school for only a week.

Because she found that going to school was not fun at all. Every day, she not only had to sit there and listen to the teacher’s lectures, recite and memorize, but also had to report to her sister-in-law what she had learned today after school. In addition, she had fixed homework to complete every day.

As in the past, although she also needed to do these under the personal guidance of the scholar, since the scholar himself also had to work, he only had time to teach her when he was free.

In other words, when the scholar was teaching privately, she only needed a few days of class a month.

But now it has become a month and only a few days to rest. At the rest, you have to go to class every day. This huge contrast makes Xiao Bei a little reluctant.

After all, she is a girl and doesn’t take the imperial examination. Why is she so tired of studying?

What made her even more disgusting was that in the academy, Qiu Xiaodong was even more overwhelming. Not only did she laugh at her for writing ugly, but she also thought that she could not recite the book well, which was simply outrageous!

In this way, in this situation where she could not get affirmation and self-satisfaction, Beckham gradually developed some aversion to learning.

However, Xiao Bei did not dare not go to school blatantly, nor did he dare to tell her sister-in-law that she didn't want to go to school anymore. After all, compared to her sister-in-law's appearance when she got angry, it was much safer to go to school.

Moreover, as for her sister-in-law's performance at first, Xiao Bei knew that even if she didn't want to go, she had to go, otherwise her sister-in-law would be very disappointed.
