Chen Qianlang begged Huanting for Chen Mingyang's safety, although he was reprimanded by Zhou Qi, but Huanting took it to heart, and did not go to Chen's house the next day, Chen Mingyang drank so much that he didn't know anything, and he forgot the agreement with Huanting, and slept until noon the next day, because the old lady Chen was even more confused, and pulled Chen Mingyang to say that, Chen Mingyang couldn't get out, and he didn't come to find Huanting, Huanting sat in the house for a long time, and finally broke off her thoughts about Chen Mingyang, thinking: It's better to wait for my brother to return to Beijing together, For more than a month, I will take it with me in the house, don't go anywhere, and accept my fate. People are like this, if they don't accept their fate and can't change it, it's the most painful, but once all thoughts are gone, there will be no pain at all, and life is just doing nothing step by step, just waiting for fate to arrange.

Zhou Qi was worried, Wan Ting was just a little bit two days ago, but yesterday Chen Qianlang's words made her refuse to go out of the room.

"Your Excellency?" Wu Yi stood beside Zhou Qi with a broom.

"What's wrong?"

"I see you've been standing here for a long time."

"Wu Yi." Zhou Qi paused and continued: "If you die in a few days, what are you going to do?" ”

"Huh?"

"That is, what do you do if you know you're going to die in a little more than a month?"

"Me? Then I'll eat and drink, and do all the things I didn't dare to do before. ”

"Heh, what did you dare not do before."

"Lord Zhou, there are many things that ordinary people like me dare not do."

"For example?"

"Me? I didn't rob the aisles, nor did I kill people and set fires. ”

"Can't you think of something that isn't illegal?"

"Hahaha, Lord Zhou, I see that you are worried, I tease you. However, there is one thing I have always wanted to do but have not dared to do. ”

"What?"

"It's just raising a big dog."

"A dog? Cut, then what's not to dare. ”

Wu Yi suddenly got serious, she pestle a broom, and looked at Zhou Qi a little aggrieved, "Lord Zhou, in the past, my father and I even had a place to stay, and if you raise a dog, you have to keep it well, you can't let it wander with us, right?" ”

Zhou Qi suddenly felt distressed when he heard Wu Yi say this, "Then you can raise it now." ”

"Is it here? Hehe, this is a yamen. Wu Yi laughed again, "Lord Zhou, in the past, I shivered when I saw an official, and I ran away when I saw an official, but now it's good that I live in the yamen every day, and the adults here also said that I should raise a dog here." Hahaha. ”

Zhou Qi also laughed, "But this official can allow you to raise one." ”

"Really?"

"My officer's words always count."

"Hey, hey." Wu Yi shook the broom body with both hands, "My lord, then I'll go, I'll buy a big dog." Wu Yi was just about to run, but suddenly calmed down, looked at Zhou Qi and said, "My lord." ”

"Huh?"

"I don't have any money." Wu Yi felt embarrassed after speaking.

Zhou Qi frowned, and was finally angry, "You, you are really...... Gotta gotcha, go out into the streets yourself and see where there are stray dogs,

Adopt one. ”

Wu Yi pouted, "Stingy." ”

"Then do you want to raise it?"

"Think about it, my lord, I'll go now." Wu Yi put down the broom and went to the street, she has always taken a fancy to a dog, and fed it every day, but she has never been able to bring it home, and now she finally has the permission of Lord Zhou, Wu Yi can't wait to find it. Wu Yi walked around the street, the dog was not found, and a man who had drunk too much swayed and fell at Wu Yi. "Hey, big brother, this big brother."

"Ahh The man snorted drunkly: "I know, haha, it's just a master, who can take you seriously, hahaha." ”

"Big brother, you've drunk too much." Wu Yi supported his master vigorously, "Big brother, where is your house, big brother?" ”

"I don't have a home." The man drew an arc in the air with the flask, "No home." ”

"That, big brother, I have something, why don't you sit on the side of the road now? Sobering up? Wu Yi helped the man aside, and finally put him on the side of the road to sober up and continue to look for the dog. At this time, Li Bo found out the master's situation and reported it to Zhou Qi.

"This master's name is Sun Lin, and there doesn't seem to be anything strange about it. His neighbors said he had always lived in seclusion and had not been particularly lavish in terms of money. Oh yes, he used to have a wife, but then he suddenly got away with him for some unknown reason, and took their only son with him. ”

"So there doesn't seem to be a problem with this master."

"Hmmm......"

"What's wrong?"

"It's a little strange that he goes to the temple every ten days."

"What's so strange about going to the temple? It shouldn't be surprising that there are many people who believe in Buddhism, and they hope to use the power of the Buddha to gain psychological comfort, right? ”

"But what is the general matter of praying to God and worshiping Buddha, such as women asking for children, men wanting to be promoted and making fortunes, and someone in the living family is sick, and he only goes back to ask the Buddha when he is desperate, but he is a bachelor, and he has no parents, relatives and children, what does he ask for in the temple?"

"Hey, he's weird when you say that. Did you go to the temple and ask? ”

"The abbot said that he was just an ordinary pilgrim, nothing special."

"Did you ask him what he was asking for?"

"He said that he was worshipping the Buddha himself, and he didn't tell the abbot."

"Did he add incense money?"

"Added, all his money is basically added to the incense money."

"That should be a very important thing, what can he ask for?"

"I don't know. But my lord, even if he has nothing to do to worship the Buddha and spend all the money, this is also his own money, and it has nothing to do with the ruined county government. I think the first three magistrates are suspicious, maybe they just don't grow. ”

"Three terms in a row and no progress?"

"Well, that's not impossible."

"You know, I didn't fire him yesterday." Zhou Qi thought for a while, "In this way, let's find a chance to ask him tomorrow to see why the first three are all in this rich land."

Achievements. ”

"You've opened people, can they tell us?"

"Hey, if he wants him to be honest, maybe I'll keep him alone."

"Will it?"

"No, it won't."

Li Bo shook his head, "Master Zhou, he is the master, can you do this little trick?" ”

"Hey, then you'd like to think of a good idea, current master?"

"Hehe, then, let's ask tomorrow."

As he was talking, Wu Yi came back with the dog in his arms, "My lord, my lord." Wu Yi shouted before he entered the hospital. Zhou Qi stretched his neck and looked out of the window, only to see a black puppy in Wu Yi's arms looking at the yard in fear. The two walked out together, "Isn't there a good dog in this Huizhou city?" ”

"Hehe, that's good, it's obedient."

Zhou Qi walked in and took a look, it was just an ordinary earth dog, his whole body was black, only the eyebrow bone was yellow, "What's it called?" ”

"Hmm...... It's called Kuroko. ”

Zhou Qi glared at Wu Yi, "It's still wanting." ”

"Hey, my lord, it doesn't have a name."

"It's still smelly, you should wash it quickly."

"Hey, yes." Wu Yi hugged the dog and walked inside, then turned to Zhou Qi and said, "Okay, I can't regret raising it in the future." ”

"Don't regret it, its rations will be left from your mouth."

Wu Yi pouted, "Got it, Lord Zhou, anyway, I just did all the work, and then I couldn't get a penny, so it's done." ”

"I have to eat less."

"Got it!" Wu Yi hugged the dog and said to the dog: "Be good, my sister's saved food will be eaten for you, and you will protect your sister when you grow up in the future." ”

"Hey."

Taking advantage of Zhou Qi's lack of madness, Wu Yi hurriedly ran away. Li Bo finally said: "My lord, I left after two months, why do you still have a dog?" ”

"Wu Yi wants to raise it, anyway, the yard is big, so keep it."

"There are a lot of people in this yard, and there are children, and a dog, it's a bit crowded, right?"

"It's okay, anyway, aren't we going to leave in two months? Squeeze it. ”

Li Bo saw Zhou Qi like this, and began to worry again, originally thinking that Wu Yi would follow Qian Ning in the future, and he would also be separated from Zhou Qi, and his worries were finally alleviated. But Zhang Ling suddenly appeared, not only Zhang Ling, but Wu Yi broke up with Qian Ning and returned to the yamen, and Zhou Qi's attitude towards her was obviously better than that of others. For a while, Li Bo didn't even know who to guard against. Li Bo took advantage of Zhou Qi to call Wan Ting to watch the dog and came to the firewood room, and Wu Yi was squatting at the door bathing the dog. "Wu Yi." Li Bo also squatted aside.

"Master Lee."

"Wu Yi, look, this week the adults are embarrassed to say, but you see that this county yamen is much smaller than the prefect's yamen, you have a dog, this, this is not timely, right?"

"Huh? Lord Zhou said that he could raise it. ”

"Lord Zhou said yes?"

"yes, besides, look at how well-behaved it is, it doesn't struggle in this bath, hey, by the way, why don't you call it obedient."

"Changing your name so soon? Wu Yi, do you have a qualitative character? Also, you didn't before

Are you going to marry Qian Ning? Why didn't they get married? And didn't you take 10,000 taels of silver from someone else and leave Huizhou? Why are you back again? ”

"My lord, me and Qian Ning, I always feel weird, it's wrong for me to take other people's money, don't I help them donate it to the school? Besides, now that I owe so much money to adults, I can't keep it and pay it back. ”

"How much do you owe the adults?"

"I owe two taels of silver every month, and I lied to him of ten taels of silver before."

"Hey, I thought how much, I'll give it to you." Saying that, Li Bo stood up and took out a silver ticket from his waist, "One hundred taels, is it enough?" ”

"One hundred taels?" Wu Yi hurriedly let go of his obedient and stood up, his hands wet, and his eyes widened.

"You still give him ten taels, give him two taels a month, no, four taels, and then you can give him twenty-two months? Besides, if you go home to take care of Li Laosi by yourself, you don't have to give him so much. ”

"But I can't take your money for nothing."

"Tsk, how is this for nothing? I, the guards, the guards are very important now, they are all going to be the catchers, who will protect Lord Zhou? So, hurry up, take the silver and go and get the two guards back, I thank you, you deserve it. ”

"Really?" Wu Yi was overjoyed, "Master Li, you are really a good person." ”

"It's okay, it's all for adults." Li Bo was worried that Zhou Qi would come over, so he hurriedly stuffed the silver ticket into Wu Yi's hand, and walked away by himself, not forgetting to advise, "Be careful not to get wet, don't say what I gave you, it's all for adults, as long as adults are good, you are a great hero, this is what you deserve." ”
