"Haha," Lei Gae laughed twice, "My nephew, regardless of his safety, brought all the guards to catch the murderer, which also protected the people in the city."
"It is the duty of the children of the Ding family to contribute to the elders in their hometown." Seeing that Lei Ge avoided his official position, Ding Kui expressed his feelings for his fellow countrymen.
"The greatest blessing of Black Earth City is that the Protector clan has emerged. As long as the Ding family is here, the people of Black Earth City are not afraid of being bullied by outsiders." Lei Ge also expressed his intention to form an alliance. "As for those black sheep, they must be eliminated. Just like the Gao Family,
People who bully the market, set up private casinos, and secretly kidnap young girls should be severely punished."
"Uncle Lei is so fair and upright, I really admire him very much. I will definitely publicize this kind of act of justice for my uncle."
"No, no, I'm just about to discuss this matter with my nephew. There are more than 20 imprisoned girls, and there are more than ten from the local area.
Although these girls were not violated while they were trapped, outsiders did not know this, and there would always be some rumors. This would have a bad impact on these more than 20 children and more than 20 families.
The best thing now is to severely punish the Gao family and treat these girls preferentially. The city lord's palace will come forward to compensate their families and handle the matter in a low-key manner so as not to let these suffering children get hurt again." Lei Ge tactfully stated the biggest purpose of his trip.
.
Gao Li's sister was still Lei Ge's concubine. Even if Lei Ge divorced her now, she still couldn't get rid of the impact of this matter. Lei Ge wanted to suppress the matter and handle it in a low-key manner, especially because he was afraid of Ding Kui's magazine publicity.
"My uncle is so considerate of his subjects. This is an example of my young nobility. My nephew is really ashamed to judge my uncle's magnanimity with a secular heart. I am really ashamed!" Ding Kui's face really showed a look of shame.
"Let my nephew laugh. If my nephew can fulfill my wish, Lei will never forget me." Lei Ji finally came up with something useful. He didn't use "I" to owe this favor, but "Lei"
It shows that he is using his identity as city lord to return favors.
"Uncle Lei has given you orders, how dare your nephew disobey him!" Ding Kui said this very seriously.
The more the topic related to the exchange of interests, the simpler the two people talked about it. This is the habit of the nobles on the continent.
The goals of both parties were achieved, the sterile dialogue ended quickly, and Lei Ge returned to the city lord's palace with peace of mind.
After sending Lei Gao away, Ding Kui found that he had nothing to do. There were still ten days until mid-January before he could return to training with the Knights Guild. Now that there were often outsiders coming in and out of his home, battle practice was suspended.
Arriving at the girls' yard, several tailors from Shijia Silk Shop were making clothes for the girls.
The city lord's palace couldn't find so many clothes for the girls at once, so it simply gave Shi Heng a sum of money and asked Shi Heng to send someone to make fresh clothes for the girls.
Knowing that Ding Kui had rescued the people and that they were all living in Ding Kui's home, Shi Heng did not dare to neglect and sent all his best tailors over.
Ding Kui looked at the busy tailor, and his heart suddenly moved.
My hypnosis technique has never been used on a living person. I don’t know how effective it is. The guards around me are too powerful, so I’m afraid it won’t work. Xiaoxiao is someone who grew up around me, so it’s not easy to start with.
The imprisoned girl is already pitiful enough, why not try to find a tailor.
Whatever he wanted to do, Ding Kui pretended to watch the tailors at work, and his mental power began to guide his magic to perform hypnosis.
After a period of practice, the in-situ hypnosis technique now takes seven or eight minutes to prepare. Ding Kui threw the prepared hypnosis technique to a tailor who happened to stop for a rest.
The tailor yawned, rubbed his hands, and rubbed his shoulders. The movements were quite natural, and no one noticed that his eyes were straight.
Two minutes later, Ding Kui removed the hypnosis.
The tailor was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, looked around, muttered, and then continued his unfinished work.
Ding Kui raised the corners of his mouth slightly and turned around to leave as if nothing had happened.
Ruan Xingzhu was wearing a loose dress, and the sleeves on his hands were rolled up several times. Xiaoxiao had changed his previous clothes and borrowed them for her to wear temporarily.
She was struggling to carry a bucket of water with both hands, and planned to mention her new room. No one had lived in that room for a long time, and Ruan Xingzhu wanted to clean the dust in the room.
Xiaoxiao followed the housekeeper's wishes and arranged a private room for Ruan Xingzhu, which was right next door to Xiaoxiao's room.
There were still a few steps to reach the door of the room. Ruan Xingzhu had exhausted all his strength and was about to put down the barrel to rest. A strong arm stretched out from behind and lifted the barrel with one hand.
Ruan Xingzhu was caught off guard, his body leaned forward, and he was about to fall down as soon as he could no longer stand. Suddenly he felt his right arm tighten, and his body that was about to fall was caught.
She looked back and saw a pair of half-closed red phoenix eyes that met hers, opened immediately, and then closed slowly.
Standing behind her is Ding Kui.
Ding Kui held the bucket in his right hand and held Ruan Xingzhu's right arm with his left hand. He gently moved his left hand back, and Ruan Xingzhu finally stood up and almost fell into his arms.
Ruan Xingzhu's originally fair face immediately turned red, like a ripe tomato. She cursed in her heart: Why am I so unsatisfactory? I get so flustered every time I see him.
"Miss Ruan, where are you going to carry this bucket of water?" Ding Kui tried his best to smile as easy-going as possible.
This guy with a strong soul feels like his heartbeat is racing, his throat is dry, and he feels at a loss.
"Ah, Master Ding," Ruan Xingzhu's head lowered naturally, and she pointed at the door of the room with her hand, "I, I want to go to the room."
Ding Kui let go of Ruan Xingzhu's right arm and walked into the side room carrying a bucket of water. Ruan Xingzhu was stunned for a moment, then quickly took small steps and chased Ding Kui into the room.
"Master, this room is full of dust and it hasn't been cleaned yet. Don't go in," Ruan Xingzhu shouted while chasing him.
"Hey, you live here? Why do you need to clean up by yourself?" Ding Kui touched the door of the wing with his hand, and there was a layer of dust on his fingers.
"Everyone is very busy right now. I can do these little things myself and I can clean them up quickly." Ruan Xingzhu found a rag from somewhere and started wiping the seats and benches in the room.
Ding Kui walked to the door of the wing and shouted to the outside: "Ding Cai, Ding Cai."
Ruan Xingzhu held a rag in one hand and trotted to Ding Kui's side, "Master, don't call them, I can do it myself."
Ding Kui snatched the rag from Ruan Xingzhu's hand and said, "You have just been locked up in the Gao family dungeon for so long, and your body is still weak. You should let others do these rough jobs."
"It doesn't matter, I can really do it." Ruan Xingzhu still wanted to explain.
"Come on, Master, are you calling me?" Ding Cai ran into the yard quickly.
"Find someone to clean up Miss Ruan's room. If there's no one around, you can do it." Ding Kui said unceremoniously.
