Chapter 70 How can a person wander around the world without getting stabbed?
Glancing at Ye Chengguan calmly, Wen Yuming immediately expressed his righteousness and awe-inspiring attitude: "I am not a person who is greedy for power and gain, nor is he a dim-witted person who is a party member. I am just sympathetic to Ye Zhixian's hard work all day long.
, I have just finished settling the old affairs of the county government, and now I have to go on a long-distance tour of other counties with my government. I feel very distressed."
"I'm sorry, the prefect is concerned."
Listening to his high-sounding words, Ye Chengguan felt deep contempt in his heart: "After receiving the emperor's salary and receiving the emperor's favor, it is the duty of a lower official to share your majesty's worries and relieve the worries of the superior officials. I dare not say that it is hard work."
"well."
Wen Yuming nodded with a wry smile, and then gave his master Mu Xian a profound instruction: "Master Mu, quickly go to the state capital to arrange manpower and set off for Jiang'an County immediately."
Mu Xian's face slightly perked up, but returned to normal for a moment, and immediately left in response.
Hua Rujin and Ye Chengguan looked at each other, probably guessing that Wen Yuming would send someone to Jiang'an County in advance to summon him.
It's just that some things are easy to hide, but once you hide them too much, you will be suspected of covering up.
She didn't worry about finding any flaws.
Looking at Wen Yuming and Ye Chengguan with a smile, she said calmly: "The two adults will run away from home in a hurry later. I have to go and report to my mother."
"Miss Laohua is accompanying me on this trip."
Wen Yuming grinned and made a gesture of greeting.
Cunning eyes flashed across Ye Chengguan's quiet face, and he suddenly started to murmur in his heart.
There are many famous litigants in Jiangling City. Why did the Han family hire this young widow to defend themselves in court?
How the Cheng family's mother and daughter, who had disappeared for a long time, could be together with this little widow also puzzled him.
Thinking of Ye Chenggui's visit to Maoyuan Village yesterday, it gradually became clear in his mind:
I'm afraid that all of this was prompted by the Number One Scholar.
Hua Rujin and Shu Jinxuan walked out of the county office together. Looking at the carriage parked in the distance, Ruya's cousin asked worriedly: "Cousin, are you really going to Jiang'an County with Mr. Ye and Magistrate Wen?"
"I have to make this trip."
Hua Rujin replied firmly.
Now that we have decided to take the lead for Nini, we must have a beginning and an end.
And you can't always point to the No. 1 Scholar to take the case for you.
You can't rely on your childhood sweetheart, your elegant cousin, and you can't get too involved with an ex-fiancé who has broken off the engagement.
What she saw in the court today also made her deeply aware of the unkindness to women in this era. With her current status as a widow, it would be even more difficult for her to get ahead.
You have to be more diligent and paint the walls.
Since this world is unfair, then this world will be destroyed.
Seeing his cousin looking thoughtful, Shu Jinxuan didn't figure out how this girl met that little girl from the Cheng family until now, so he continued to ask as he walked:
"Cousin, the affairs of the Cheng family are not simple. I'm afraid that even Magistrate Wen has something to do with it. I'm a little worried about you rashly venturing into this muddy water."
Hua Rujin said with a relaxed smile: "How can a person wander around the world without getting stabbed?"
It depends on whose knife is sharper.
In this line of work, you can earn a much richer salary than ordinary people, but you also have to take more risks.
"Cousin, don't worry about me."
Turning her head and glancing at her elegant cousin with a frown on her face, Hua Rujin didn't know how to persuade him.
He always put himself in his shoes so much that he couldn't bear to be cruel to him anymore.
It's just that after all, she is no longer the cousin he misses so much, but she can't tell him the truth.
After thinking about it, she had no choice but to advise tactfully: "My cousin should not keep focusing on me. I am a widow now. My cousin should concentrate on studying medicine. When he enters the palace in the future, he will have a bright future.
"
"You are a widow after all, so don't belittle yourself."
Shu Jinxuan looked distressed: "The prefect has personally read Dou Yue's letter of annulment and apology. You are being persecuted. I wonder who dares to talk about you behind your back."
Hua Rujin looked helpless and left with a smile.
Seeing his cousin rushing straight to the carriage, a bright moon-like smile broke out on his elegant cousin's face: Even if she is a widow, she is still a beautiful and kind-hearted widow.
Cai Baiwei led the two little ones to sit uneasily on the carriage, while absentmindedly staring at the two siblings playing with the money that the Han family had stuffed in, while staring in the direction of the county government office with her peripheral vision.
Seeing her daughter coming out, she ran out of the carriage with great joy, grabbed her daughter's slender hand, and asked hurriedly: "How is it? Is everything settled?"
Hua Rujin looked around, pulled Cai Baiwei back to the carriage and sat down, and whispered: "Auntie, I have to go to Jiang'an County with the magistrate. You can wait for me at home and take care of my little one."
round and round."
"Do you have to go?"
Cai Baiwei's heart was full of doubts at this time, and she also had the same confusion as her cousin: I don't know how this girl could be related to the girl of the Cheng family.
"I have to go."
Hua Rujin nodded: "When we save more money, we can buy a house in the inner city, and then our family will no longer have to live in exile."
As long as he can help Ni Ni's family seek justice this time, he will definitely have a reputation in the entire Jingzhou Prefecture, and it will be much easier to take on another case.
But Hua Muyang was unwilling. She threw away the two coins in her hand, hugged Hua Rujin and begged loudly: "Sister, I don't want a house, I just want sister to accompany us."
Hua Youen, however, acted indifferently. Even though her brother-in-law was going with her, she was not worried and said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry and go out with your brother-in-law. We will be obedient at home and take good care of my mother-in-law."
Cai Baiwei curled her lips angrily: "You En, don't talk nonsense. That's the magistrate. You can't call me brother-in-law anymore."
But deep down in my heart, I began to feel regretful. If my mother-in-law hadn't come up with that incident, my daughter would now be the legitimate wife of the magistrate, and how could she be criticized everywhere like she is now.
However, thinking that my daughter was going to Jiang'an County with Mr. Ye, I immediately felt more at ease.
Collecting the money in the hands of the two little cubs, she slowly put it into her daughter's hand, and warned in a gentle voice: "This is the money sent in by the Han brothers. You should keep it all. Don't starve yourself when you get there. In a hurry,
I didn’t have time to pack my parcel, so if I go longer and buy two more changes of clothes, I can’t bear to be wronged.”
Glancing at the silver in her hand, Hua Rujin smiled and said: "I still have money here. I forgot that my aunt gave me three hundred taels of silver notes yesterday, as well as compensation from the county. I will give those four
Collect the ten taels and send the remaining ten taels back to the Han family when you have time. We don’t want more of other people’s money.”
Cai Baiwei nodded hesitantly: "Okay, I'll save them all for you."
As he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a babbling sound coming from outside.
The two little kids immediately opened the curtain to take a look, and saw a group of yellow-robed Taoist priests circling around the carriage, holding peach wood swords in their hands as if they were reciting some scriptures, and their behavior was very strange.
The mother and daughter all looked surprised, and just as they were about to scold, Shu Jinxuan rushed over immediately, pointed at the weird group of Taoist priests and yelled: "What are you sneaking around here, you stinking Taoist priests?"
