When the messenger from Luojiang County arrived in Yizhou City, the magistrate of Tang County said to Mrs. Tang: "Madam, the weather is cold and hot in spring, and my husband seems to be sick."
Mrs. Tang became nervous, "Are you sick?"
Magistrate Tang nodded heavily, "So I will stay behind closed doors to recuperate for the past two days, while Mrs. Lao will be outside."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Tang looked at him suspiciously and looked up and down his face. Seeing that his face was rosy and his voice was fine, she rolled her eyes angrily and said, "If you want me to cover it up for you, just say so. Why do you want me to cover it up for you?"
Scared me? Where are you going?"
Magistrate Tang: "Go to Luojiang County."
Mrs. Tang frowned slightly.
Magistrate Tang quickly comforted him: "It's nothing serious, I just have a case that I need to go over."
"What kind of case needs to be hidden from the governor Ming and from outsiders?"
Magistrate Tang smiled flatteringly at her, and Mrs. Tang sighed and didn't ask any more questions.
After being married for many years, Mrs. Tang has figured out his bad temper. He is very willing to take some trivial or weird cases home to have fun with her, but as long as it is a major case, he will beat him to death before it is solved.
Won't say it.
Mrs. Tang waved her hand and said: "Go, go, how long will you have to go this time?"
Magistrate Tang thought for a while and felt that it couldn't be short, because Yang He's letter said that the thing had been found; but it couldn't be long, because the situation in the city was uncertain, and he would arouse suspicion if he didn't show up for too long.
The Tang County magistrate wanted to investigate the suspected rebellion of King Yizhou, but he did not want to force him to rebel in advance. Otherwise, if he really rebelled, their family would not be able to leave Yizhou City alive, no matter where they were from.
Even if it's the opposite, he still cares about what your father does and where your mother's family is from?
So Magistrate Tang weighed it up and said: "At most three days."
Mrs. Tang felt relieved and didn't just have to go for half a month like last time.
The couple whispered something and then went to wash up and go to bed. They had to get up early tomorrow to quietly leave the city.
At this moment, everyone in Luojiang County had just finished their dinner, and Mrs. Cui asked Manbao to talk, "Let them talk, and the two of us can talk?"
Man Bao has just met Mrs. Cui and is not very familiar with her, but she is a familiar person. Anyway, Magistrate Yang cannot tell them what the documents in the bag are tonight. It would be good to talk to Mrs. Yang.
, so Manbao nodded, "Mrs. Yang, please go first."
Ms. Cui smiled and said, "How many years am I older than you? You can call me Sister Cui. Only our mother-in-law can call me Madam."
The eldest girl on the side smiled and continued: "Miss, you can call our eldest grandma Grandma Yang."
Man Bao knew that it must be because the Yang family had a large population and the old lady was still there, so their seniority had not yet risen. She nodded and simply changed her name to "Sister Cui".
Mrs. Cui smiled and asked, "Have you and my husband known each other for many years?"
Man Bao nodded, "I have known Mr. Yang since he came here to be the county magistrate."
Ms. Cui calculated it silently and said with a smile, "It's been three or four years."
Manbao did the math and nodded, "Absolutely."
Then the scene fell silent, everyone suddenly had nothing to say, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Man Bao scratched his head and remembered what his sister-in-law had said. The new daughter-in-law was embarrassed when she first entered the house because she couldn't fit in at home yet, so she had to take care of her, so that the relationship would be better later.
So Man Bao thought about it and took the initiative to pick a topic, "Sister Cui, will you always live in Luojiang County from now on?"
Ms. Cui, who was searching for topics in his mind that he could talk about without offending the other party, paused for a moment and nodded, "Yes, where he is, I will naturally be there."
Man Bao nodded, "That's good. It's better for husband and wife not to separate. You are a family. Not like my fourth brother. He is often separated from my fourth sister-in-law..."
Mrs. Cui started chatting with Man Bao, and Ms. Cui learned from Man Bao how they met Magistrate Yang and how they became friends;
And Man Bao knew that there were several sisters in Cui's family. Magistrate Yang had a good reputation in Beijing. He was talented and good-looking, and was known as a quick son-in-law. Cui was able to marry Magistrate Yang after defeating several people.
Only one person made an appointment with him;
The two of them talked so passionately that they immediately lost track of time.
County Magistrate Yang returned to the backyard and found that Man Bao was still there. He coughed lightly and walked into the house. He looked at Man Bao and said, "You have been in the woods for two days and you are not tired yet?"
Man Bao quietly stuck out his tongue and said goodbye to Mr. Cui.
Magistrate Yang turned around and called his servants, "Wan Tian is outside. Send Miss Man out and ask Wan Tian to send her back."
The servant responded and led Manbao out.
Man Bao then waved to Magistrate Yang, "See you tomorrow then."
Magistrate Yang also smiled and waved to her.
Mrs. Cui saw his smile from the side and her eyes flickered slightly. When she went to see Man Bao again, she had already jumped out and ran out.
Magistrate Yang turned around and looked at Ms. Cui with a smile, "Let's take a shower and rest."
Ms. Cui quickly stood up with a smile, "Yes, I will serve you."
Although the past two days have been very tiring, the biological clock is fixed. Man Bao woke up when the time came. She opened the door and poked her head into the yard. Bai Shan just stretched out and asked for water. Daji had already washed up and was in the yard.
Practice boxing and kicking.
After they washed up, they met in the yard. Bai Shan said: "Bai Er is still asleep. I called him, but he couldn't wake him up."
Daji on the side also said: "Master Zhou is asleep too."
Man Bao waved his hand and said: "Let them sleep. Magistrate Tang will only arrive in the afternoon. Come on, let's go to the study to find a book to read?"
Bai Shan thought they had nothing to do, so he nodded in agreement.
Wan Tian was guarding Magistrate Yang's study. When he saw them coming, he led them into the study. He watched them pick at the bookshelf, each took a book and went out before closing the door again, "Master Shan, Miss Man."
,Don’t you have breakfast first?”
Bai Shan raised his head, glanced at the sky, and asked, "Has your family started eating breakfast now?"
That's not the case, Wan Tian smiled and said: "We have to wait a few more quarters of an hour, but if Master Shan and Miss Man are hungry, the younger ones can go to the kitchen and order some food."
Bai Shan waved his hand and said, "No need, we're not too hungry now."
He looked around and asked Manbao, "Where do you want to study?"
"Going to the garden? I remember that the county magistrate's house had a rockery. You could see many flowers and plants there. It was very beautiful. We went there to study."
"OK."
Bai Shan took Man Bao to the garden. Wan Tian did not follow and let them go. Anyway, they were very familiar with the county magistrate's mansion and there was no need for anyone to lead the way.
The rockery was not small. There were two large round stones on the top for sitting on. It was a quite large platform. Bai Shan climbed up first, then pulled Manbao on top and warned: "You must hold on tight. If you fall,
I don’t care.”
Man Bao shot back, "As long as you don't fall."
When Ms. Cui came out in the morning and was about to go to the guest house, she saw her. She couldn't help but pause in her steps. She turned around and asked the girl beside her with a smile, "Are the two young guests familiar with our house?"
