While Chu Nanzhi was eating the fragrant scallion pancake, she looked at the surrounding situation.
The sky was gradually getting brighter, and there were already many pedestrians on the road. They were all surprised to see such richly dressed young men and armored sergeants sitting in the old breakfast shop.
Chu Nanzhi just wanted to laugh when she looked at it.
Now the most noble person in Pingning Prefecture and the only prince in the entire south, Prince Pingning, actually brought his wife and subordinates to eat at a roadside stall and ate with gusto.
Such a rare thing may only be seen here.
Seeing that the couple quickly ate all the food on the table, the store owner specially sent a few scallion pancakes and two plates of side dishes.
Chu Nanzhi was not polite. She ate four scallion pancakes, three dishes of side dishes, and two bowls of porridge. She still felt like she still had more to eat.
Not to mention, although this shop looks a little shabby, the food it makes is really enjoyable.
The store owner saw that Mrs. Lin Langjun had eaten every last morsel of food on the table, and was about to bring her two more scallion pancakes. Chu Nanzhi quickly stopped her and said: "No need, store owner, I, I'll eat."
full."
"Ma'am, you don't have to be polite. In this old shop, we always make sure that the diners are satisfied before they have enough food."
The store owner said with an attentive look.
Chu Nanzhi quickly waved her hands and took out two taels of silver from her pocket to hand to the store. Lin Jinxiao knew that she liked the scallion pancakes here, so she took out a hundred coins and handed them to the store, and ordered him to wrap some more.
Then he asked Chu Nanzhi to collect the money and said with a smile: "If you haven't eaten well, you can eat more when you go home to accompany your little treasures. The money I gave is enough, and he won't ask for more."
"He is quite an honest person."
Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, they are all simple vendors, just like Mrs. Zhang in Tong'an Village. They work hard every day and never cheat or cheat, as long as they deserve what they deserve."
Looking at the hunched and busy figure inside, Lin Jinxiao's eyes gradually became darker: "When I was a Langguan in Beijing, I thought that like my father, I would become a parent-in-law in the future and be able to do my best to protect the family.
The smiles on these people’s faces.”
"Yes, you are no worse than your father now, and you are not just a county magistrate, but a governor of a state. You can protect more people, maybe in the future."
At this point, Chu Nanzhi suddenly paused and did not continue, but instead said: "Lin Dalang, I will accompany you and protect them together with you."
Lin Jinxiao felt extremely warm in his heart.
What a blessing it is to be lucky enough to marry a woman who shares the same goals with me.
At this moment, he also completely recognized his determination to support her in her pursuit of success against all odds.
"Go back."
Chu Nanzhi stood up, supported him, and said worriedly: "It's time for the little darlings to get up too. Today is the day when the two elders pass the house, so we have to rush back early."
Lin Jinxiao responded, picked up the scallion pancakes wrapped by the store, and returned to the carriage.
When I arrived in front of the old house, I happened to meet Mr. Nie and Mr. Chang came together.
Seeing the couple and a group of sergeants, Mr. Chang couldn't help but pout, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Xiao'er, who are you and Nan Zhi?"
His face was dusty and he didn't look like he was ready to go out.
Lin Jinxiao and Chu Nanzhi looked at each other, not daring to hide anything from their elders, and replied honestly: "Last night, my wife and I tried the case of the Qi family and Zheng Haichuan."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Chang Yanjue scolded him fiercely: "There is no need to work so hard to investigate a case, and it doesn't take more than one or two days."
After finishing speaking, he immediately looked at Chu Nanzhi, and his attitude immediately became much gentler: "Nan Zhi, I am not just talking about you as a teacher, you are such a shameless husband, your legs and feet are so nimble and you don't care about your body and bones."
When Nie Huaian saw Lin Jinxiao using the crutches again, he frowned anxiously: "Didn't he get better a while ago? Why did I hear that the leg disease has recurred?"
Chang Yanjue pointed angrily at Lin Jinxiao, who had a sullen face and did not dare to interrupt: "You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you have to toss like your father before you give up."
"Two gentlemen, I don't blame Lin Dalang. It was the students who wanted to find out what happened to Zheng Haichuan in a hurry last night."
Seeing the normally proud and dignified man being scolded by the two old men so much that he didn't even dare to raise his head, Chu Nanzhi felt a little distressed and hurriedly explained.
"Stop protecting him."
Chang Yanjue scolded him again with dissatisfaction. Yin Liuxuan looked on with fear and said quickly: "Second elders, what happened last night happened for a reason. It was because of the sudden arrival of His Royal Highnesses Beibin King and Nandu King that Zheng Haichuan changed his confession.
, the princess’s sister-in-law was worried about Ye Changmeng Duocai and decided to interrogate Zheng Haichuan overnight.”
"King of Beibin, King of Nandu?"
The two elders looked at each other and frowned: "Why are these two people going to Luyan Port to join in the fun?"
"It can't be a good thing."
Nie Huai'an didn't want to argue anymore, and suddenly changed his expression, looked at Chu Nan Zhi with a smile, and said loudly: "Da Zhi, you are really showing off to me again. In just one day, you found out the man who murdered the Qi family.
The real murderer of the old woman.”
"You old guy, you haven't taught this girl anything, you picked up a disciple along the way, and now you're here to take credit."
Chang Yanjue's stubborn lips pursed higher.
"You have skills. Da Zhi's skills were all taught by you, an old guy."
Nie Huaian retorted with an unconvinced look.
Seeing the two elders starting to pinch each other again, Chu Nanzhi just complained secretly in her heart.
Looking at Lin Jinxiao and Yin Liuxuan, whose faces were as stiff as bitter gourds, they were obviously at their wits end.
Suddenly her eyes lit up and she persuaded with a smile: "It's the two gentlemen who have taught me well. It's you who have taught me so well. The students have been waiting in front of him all day long. They have been influenced by what they hear and see. Fortunately, they have learned a little bit. Naturally,
It’s all thanks to these two gentlemen.”
Not only were the two elders very satisfied with this answer, but even Lin Jinxiao and Yin Liuxuan couldn't help but stand in awe.
Yin Liuxuan silently glanced at his wife, who was neither humble nor overbearing, and gave a secret thumbs up.
No wonder Mrs. Sister-in-law is so respected by her two elders and so favored by her cousin. It’s really not just a boast.
He also said that he could talk and do things, and anyone who married such a woman would be lucky.
With such a smart woman by their cousin's side, what should the royal grandmother and her father have to worry about?
He was so happy that he decided to write a letter immediately to inform his grandmother and father about the situation of his wife.
Chang Yanjue and Nie Huaian felt proud for a while, feeling extremely comfortable after being slapped by the female student's rainbow fart.
Chang Yanjue sneered at Lin Jinxiao with a straight face: "Look at this girl Nan Zhi, she is really better than her master. From now on, you should stay at home and recover from your injuries. Don't spend the whole day
Go out and cause trouble."
Lin Jinxiao's heart was filled with bitterness.
As a dignified governor of a state, it is my unshirkable responsibility to govern the state and counties. Why did he just add chaos?
But facing the two mentors, he could only choose to be a mute and swallow the Coptis chinensis in his stomach.
Nie Huai'an faced Chu Nan Zhi again and warned him earnestly: "Da Zhi, you don't have to worry about things at home. Youweishi and Mr. Chang are here, and it's more than enough to take care of a few little treasures. You can go out and handle the case with peace of mind."
After saying that, he quickly signaled to Yin Liuxuan: "Erlang will arrange more guards for your wife, and don't let her make any mistakes outside."
"My nephew, remember this."
Yin Liuxuan answered cautiously and silently glanced at the second elder. Seeing that the second elder was almost completely angry with his cousin, he dared to lead everyone inside.
