Chapter 48 There’s something wrong with this woman
Dabao Lin Ruiwen followed closely behind Lin Jinxiao and said happily:
"Daddy, it seems that she didn't want to harm you this time, but wanted to help you. With that strange thing, daddy won't have to trouble Uncle Li anymore. Dad, why are you scolding her?"
Lin Jinxiao ignored him and turned to the inner room with a frown.
When Chu Nanzhi heard Dabao's words, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart:
What other reason could there be for this, other than being embarrassed?
But this thing was designed based on the concept of a disabled toilet. She didn't believe that this guy would rather bother Li Ce every day than use it.
After settling everything, she happily led the other three little treasures back to the living room, washed her hands, and prepared to cook. She had just washed the rice when she heard someone calling her outside the hospital:
"Ms. Chu."
Chu Nanzhi heard the sound and hurried out.
When I walked outside the door, I saw the county government's Prime Minister Sun, leading two government servants, waiting in the yard and playing with Little Four Treasures.
The other three little guys looked at this interesting old man with a mustache in confusion.
Seeing Chu Nanzhi's figure, Sun Xiancheng immediately pulled Si Bao forward and said with a smile on his face:
"Yesterday, Madam Chu worked hard to clarify the case for the county government and brought justice to Taigong Zhao. I came here to express my gratitude to Madam Chu at the request of the county magistrate and Taigong Zhao."
After that, he calmly took a large bag from the yamen servant and handed it to her:
"Here are the fifty taels of gold given by Taigong Zhao as a reward to Madam Chu, and the fifty taels of silver given by the county magistrate as a reward to Madam Chu. Madam Chu, please keep them."
Chu Nan Zhi glanced at the bulging money bag, feeling surprised and happy. He never thought that Taigong Zhao would be grateful to him, but he still had to pretend to be polite about this kind of thing.
She pursed her lips and said softly and humbly: "How can this be done?"
Sun Xian Cheng looked sincere: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for Madam Chu, how could this case have progressed so smoothly? Madam, there is no need to be too modest."
When the quadruplets heard about fifty taels of gold, they were very excited. They had never seen so much gold in their lives. They surrounded them with shining eyes and kept asking: "Mom, we want to see it."
gold."
"Okay, let's see."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Chu Nanzhi nodded in agreement, the money bag in his hand was snatched away by the second and third treasures.
Seeing a group of little guys cheering for joy, she could only gently warn: "Don't lose it."
After that, he led Sun Xian Cheng to the living room to take a seat.
The quadruplets walked in front holding the money bag together. As soon as they entered the back room, they ran to Lin Jinxiao to show off and shouted excitedly: "Look, daddy, grandma has made a lot of money and came back with a lot of gold."
Lin Jinxiao took a quick glance, but didn't react much. He just nodded silently.
Seeing Sun Xian Cheng come in, he was about to stand up and salute. Sun Xian Cheng immediately stopped him and said with a look of attentive concern:
"Da Lang doesn't have to be so formal. Take good care of yourself. I'm still waiting for Da Lang to recover soon and work with you."
"Thank you, Mr. County Magistrate, for your concern."
Lin Jinxiao replied gratefully, and inadvertently saw the quadruplets taking out golden bars from their wallets, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Although he was not a person who was greedy for money and fame, it was the first time he saw so much gold in his home. He was quite frightened and said to Sun Xiancheng:
"I just tried my best, how could I dare to let Grandpa Zhao and the county magistrate spend so much money?"
"Da Lang's words are wrong. The whole county has been exhausted because of the Zhao Mansion case. Mrs. Chu just went into the Zhao Mansion and investigated the case to the bottom. This is different from ordinary people."
Not only the old man, but also the county magistrate and Taigong Zhao are full of praise for his wisdom."
After Sun Xiancheng said this, Chu Nanzhi happened to pour herbal tea and handed it to him.
Sun Xiancheng took a sip of tea and his eyes moved between the couple astutely. After a moment, he looked at Chu Nanzhi with a smile on his face and said solemnly:
"Yesterday, I heard the county magistrate and Zhao Taigong discussing matters in the hall. It was said that Cao Cao Shi (official name), the county magistrate in charge of judicial and criminal prisons, has retired and returned to his hometown for several months. Zhao Taigong intends to recommend Madam Chu to the county government as his wife.
The prefect is here to serve, and the county magistrate specially asked the old man to come over today to ask Madam Chu and Dalang what they meant."
Hearing this, Chu Nanzhi and Lin Jinxiao looked at each other, and Lin Jinxiao seemed to have a sarcastic look in his eyes and answered first:
"Your Excellency, the county magistrate, is joking. A humble woman is just a woman, so how dare she enter the prefect's mansion to show off her ugliness."
Although he made harsh remarks with a gun and a stick, Chu Nanzhi did not argue with him. Instead, he quickly echoed: "What my husband said is that a common woman from a womanly family can be flattered by a father-in-law. It's just this."
The women of the common people will never dare to comply with such things."
First of all, after being reminded by Mr. Nie last time, she always felt that the tax and bank case was inseparable from the county government, and she was also a little wary of Wu Enrong. The county government was afraid that it would be a dragon's pit and a tiger's den;
Besides, she doesn't want to enter the system for the time being. Wouldn't it be much more comfortable to easily take on a few private jobs and earn some money?
Seeing her firm gaze, Sun Xian Cheng knew that this was not her intention, so he couldn't force it any more. He smiled and said, "It's a pity. I will go back and reply to the county magistrate now."
"The folk woman is cooking. It's not too late for the adults to come from afar and have a meal before leaving."
"No, no, the county government still has official business to deal with, so I won't bother you and your wife."
Sun Xian Cheng lowered his head sadly and took a few more sips of tea, then stood up and said goodbye to the couple.
Seeing that he was in a low mood, Chu Nanzhi didn't know if it was caused by her refusal to enter the county government, but she didn't dare to ask more, so she had to follow him to see him out.
Inside the house, the four little guys had taken out all ten gold bars and ten ingots of silver, placed them on the floor, rubbed them around and played with them repeatedly.
Lin Jinxiao saw it, and the doubts in his heart became more and more intense.
If the tax money case was inspired by the knowledge she learned from Taoist Ximen, and she even relied on her intelligence to recapture the money from Lin Jinhong, then this murder in the Zhao Mansion has eluded the entire county.
How did she deduce and discover the case?
No, there is definitely something wrong with this woman.
Lin Jinxiao thought about this and then pushed back. Since Taoist Ximen deliberately wanted to murder their family, how could he tell her such a confidential matter.
Combined with the various signs she showed after the tax case, Lin Jinxiao gradually realized that this woman was clearly lying.
After Chu Nanzhi sent Sun Xiancheng away and returned to the living room, Lin Jinxiao's sharp eagle eyes stared closely at this strange woman who was talking nonsense, and he began to feel uneasy and confused.
Chu Nanzhi noticed something strange in his eyes, but walked to the quadruplets calmly, pretending not to see anything, picked up the gold bars and silver on the ground, put them back into the purse, and faced the four little ones.
The guy smiled and said:
"Look, we have a lot of money now. Not only can you study and read well in the future, but we can also buy many, many good things."
In addition to Dabao, the other three little guys were also very excited. They looked at the bad woman with bright eyes and asked in unison: "Aniang, what are we going to buy with the money?"
Chu Nanzhi thought for a moment: "I will go back to your grandma's house in two days. We will help grandma pay back the money she owes the Qi family. Then we will go to the county to open a big restaurant. Do you agree?"
"Tavern?"
The little ones looked at each other, and finally Sibaolin Ruijia took the lead and asked with a smile:
"Then if we open a restaurant, will we be able to eat a lot of delicious food every day?"
"certainly."
Chu Nanzhi touched Xiao Sibao's forehead.
When the second treasure and the third treasure heard about the delicious food, they wanted to go to grandma's house immediately, and said quickly: "Then we will also go to grandma's house with my mother-in-law to repay the Qi family's money."
Dabao Lin Ruiwen was bored for a long time. Seeing that his brothers and sisters were following the bad woman to his grandma's house, he secretly glanced at Lin Jinxiao and finally gritted his teeth and muttered in a low voice:
"I also need to go."
Hearing the voice, Chu Nanzhi raised his eyes and stared at Dabao quietly. Those stubborn little eyes seemed to be resolutely fighting fate on one side and making a difficult compromise on the other.
She couldn't help but touched Dabao's head. As her eyes moved, she smiled slightly and said, "Well, you all go."
Dabao avoided her hand vigilantly and asked a little dullly: "What about daddy?"
"He."
Chu Nanzhi turned to the side and looked at the cold and proud face: "I have to go too."
Husband training small class:
Lin Jinxiao: Give me a reason why I must accompany you back to your parents’ home?
Da Zhi: What I said is the reason.
Finally, I wish everyone a happy Lantern Festival!
