Chapter 240: The road is narrow
γChinese Networkγ, to provide you with wonderful reading.
Of course, Chunzhi and Chai Dong didn't know about Wei Zhong's private theory of good luck.
The couple went to Wei Zhong's house today, knowing that they were living a good life now, and they were also relieved.
"Brother Wei's work now seems inconspicuous, but it is actually very important. It seems that the prefect is cultivating him as a confidant. Chai Dong said lightly.
Harueda blinked. "How do you say that?"
Chai Dong turned his head to look at her. "Didn't he just say that? He was helping the prefect take care of the documents and copy the documents. The documents in the prefect's yamen are either important files sent from the county below, or confidential documents sent down from above, and none of these are related to the lives of many people. So if there is a slight problem, it will be very implicated. This kind of thing must be guarded by a safe person, otherwise if someone with a heart grabs this vacant seat, even if it is only a slight change or two on the file, what do you think will be the problem? β
Haruzhi immediately gasped.
"I'm afraid that I will be turned black and white upside down, so that the good people will be wronged and the bad people will get away with it!"
"More than that. There are also some passwords that are directly put down from the capital, if they are lost or tampered with, it will implicate the lives of an entire province! Chai Dong added in a serious way.
Harueda nodded hurriedly. "That's right, Xianggong, you're right!"
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but pat her chest again. "It turns out that what Brother Wei is doing now is so important, so it's no wonder that the prefect will take the initiative to give him a house to live in. This should also be a means for the prefect to win him over! β
"Yes." Chai Dong nodded.
After a pause, he tugged at the corners of his mouth again. "But the prefect, this is obviously a superfluous move. When I first recommended Brother Wei to him, I originally went for Brother Wei to be honest and trustworthy. He is the kind of person, that is, if you give him a million taels of silver, let him look at it lively, he can honestly look at it without moving a cent. The reason why the prefect arranged for him to manage the file was also because he took a fancy to him. And he is a person, because he is honest, he has been bullied by many people in the village, so now as long as someone is willing to trust him and reuse him, he will do his best to repay him. Isn't that how he is with our family? β
"It's just that our ability is limited, so we can only help him get to this point. But the prefect's arrangements for him must be more than that, and even his son is afraid that he has already been arranged to go there, otherwise why would you take the initiative to marry your daughter to him? Chai Dong smiled lightly, "So relatively speaking, the prefect's kindness to him is much greater." In view of this, he will definitely be disgusted with the prefect, and it doesn't matter if he has a house to live in or not. β
"Then, what if the prefect wants to give him a little more kindness, so that he can feel that the prefect treats him better than we treat him?" Haruka whispered a question.
Chai Dong was stunned.
Immediately, his eyebrows twisted slightly. "In that case, it makes sense."
Then, he curled the corners of his lips again.
"I see, I see. Lady, you're so smart! β
Being praised by him for being smart, Harueda was really happy in his heart.
But she knew it again, so she quickly shook her head. "Why, I'll just guess it."
"This random guess of yours is likely to be the truth!" Chai Dong whispered.
After all, Wei Zhong is now one of the most important people around the prefect, so of course he hopes that the person who puts Wei Zhong in the first place in his heart is him. In this way, he can rest assured that more tasks will be given to him, right? But if the person Wei Zhong has always been most grateful to and never forgets is Chai Dong, who carried him at the beginning, the prefect will still have a mustard in his heart. After all, who knows if one day, Wei Zhong found something unfavorable to Chai Dong in a dossier, would he quietly tell Chai Dong so that he could help him get rid of his crimes? This is something that the prefect absolutely does not want to see.
"I see." Chai Dong nodded again, and smiled at Chunzhi, "It seems that we will have to distance ourselves from Brother Wei and them in the future." β
Although he didn't say why, since Haruka herself had already guessed this, of course she had thought of the reason for this.
Harueda's heart couldn't help but sink. "It's just that if we do this, Brother Wei will be sad, right?"
"No, it won't. It's just a little more distant, and it's not that I don't get along. Chai Dong shook his head, "Moreover, if you break off contact like this rashly, it will make people suspicious." β
Haruka pursed her lips. "Okay, I got it."
However, they didn't have much contact with Wei Zhong's family before, and this time they got together in the provincial capital, just because Chai Dong came to take the exam again. When the exam is over, they are going to leave again, so there will definitely not be much contact with Wei Zhong.
Wei Zhong is not too pestering person, so it's good that everyone maintains such a light interaction.
After the couple finished speaking briefly, Chai Dong took Chunzhi's hand and took the initiative to lead her back.
Haruka felt his palm wrap her hand firmly in the palm of her hand, and the warm temperature on his body was also transmitted to her palm, and she suddenly felt warm all over her body.
This is her father-in-law!
In a blink of an eye, the boy who was not as tall as herself was now more than a head taller than her! Although his body is still a little thin, and his shoulders are not too wide, his body is straight, and there is a reassuring calmness from his bones.
I don't know when it started, she no longer treats him as a child like Chunlei. And in the eyes of others, they must not have treated him as a child for a long time, right? After all, he is so good, how many men in this world can compare to him?
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly felt a chill on her back, and she shivered coldly.
"What's wrong?" Chai Dong immediately turned around.
Meow meow!
Xiao Sanzi, who had been silently following Chunzhi's side, suddenly turned in one direction, his upper body fell down, his two front paws grasping the ground, his pink nails gently scraping the ground, and his mouth let out a low whining sound.
This is a signal that it is ready for combat.
After raising the little third son for so long, it was the first time for Chunzhi to see it so excited.
Chunzhi's heart couldn't help sinking, and she hurriedly pointed forward. "Somebody's watching me there."
Moreover, her eyes were extremely cold, like two poisoned arrows, and the arrows that flashed cold light were secretly aimed at her chest in some dark corner.
It's an uncomfortable feeling.
Chai Dong looked in the direction she pointed and found that it was a teahouse. Harukeda refers to the second floor, which is the private room on the teahouse. Those who can sit there must be unusual.
However, now the window of the private room is hidden, and only a gap is slightly exposed. This means that the other person can see them, but they can't see the other person.
It seems that this person was prepared.
Chai Dong's eyes darkened, and he immediately pulled on the spring branch. "Let's go!"
"Oh." Chunzhi nodded obediently, and hurriedly called the little third son, "Let's go!" β
The little third son roared at the window a few more times, and then reluctantly stood up straight and slowly caught up with their steps.
It wasn't until they were far away that the hidden window at the head was slowly pushed open from within, revealing a delicate face hidden behind them.
"Sister, who did you see just now? Brother-in-law, is that Xinna's concubine? The girl sitting opposite quietly rubbed her shoulders and asked cautiously.
Zhuang smiled coldly when he heard this. "What am I afraid of that fox? If she wants to hide, she should be hiding from me! β
"Yes. A concubine, no matter how favored she is, she can't go beyond you, the wife. Besides, sister, you are a person with a brother-in-law's eldest son, who are those vixens who are your opponents? The girl nodded, and she was even more curious, "In that case, who made you scared like that and closed the windows?" β
Zhuang's hurried move just now scared her!
"Who says I'm scared?" Zhuang's face sank suddenly, and he shouted in a raised tone.
The girl was another agitated, and the goosebumps that were easy to rub off came out in an instant.
She was going to cry.
Today's sister is so terrifying, more than ten times more terrifying than the most terrifying time she has ever seen!
Hurriedly took out her beloved handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes. The soft fur on the veil touched her cheeks, like a cat's soft paws caressing her face, and she felt a lot calmer.
Seeing this, Zhuang slowly pulled out a handkerchief from her sleeve that was larger and more delicate than the girl's hand. On the top of the veil, a white cat with mandarin duck eyes was lying on the grass, lazily asleep.
She gently stroked the white cat above, her eyes slowly narrowing into a slit.
"This pair of men and women are really bold enough, they even dare to come to the provincial capital! They've come just in time, I'll have to settle accounts with them this time, and I'm going to avenge my Cher! "Mobile phone users, please browse m. to read, a better reading experience.
