Why is this man here? Why is he dressed like an old peasant?

Xiaoyue stood up and said to Xu Chengchang: "I have something urgent now, you help me find the shopkeeper first, and go to the county office to find me if you have something." Without waiting for him to reply, he chased after him in the direction where the old man had left.

"Lord Wang, please stay. Satsuki lifted the corner of her robe and shouted as she ran.

The old man in front of him stopped, turned his head and looked at her with some curiosity.

Xiao Yue rushed to the old man in three steps and two steps: "Lord Wang should be old and strong, and I, a young man, can't catch up with you." ”

This person is none other than Lord Wang, who is in charge of the Ministry of Industry in the state government.

Lord Wang put his hands behind his back, dressed in the cloth clothes of the croppers, and pursed his mouth: "You are the master of Lord Wen." ”

Xiao Yue hurriedly bowed and said, "Lord Huiwang, it is Master Wen Yue of Lord Wen below." ”

Lord Wang waved his hand and said, "Master Wen doesn't have to be so formal, you are not waiting by Lord Wen's side, what are you doing here?"

Xiao Yue actually laughed when she heard this, and said, "Lord Wang doesn't wear official clothes, isn't it even stranger to appear here?"

Lord Wang looked like he had been seen through his heart, and his face was gloomy: "This is the official's business, what does it have to do with you?"

Xiao Yue listened to his tone become heavier, but she was not angry, and said with a smile: "There is a bad problem below, that is, curiosity is too heavy, if there is anything offensive to adults, please forgive me!"

Lord Wang snorted after hearing this, but thinking that this person was Wen Youyou's master, he didn't want to offend him, so he said: "It's okay, this official is not the person with a small belly. ”

Xiao Yue thought that this old man was funny, and he didn't hide it when he was angry, especially when he spoke, the beard on his mouth also moved, like watching the seven-rank sesame official on TV when he was a child.

"Lord Wang, although there is a bad problem of being too curious, there is another advantage. ”

Lord Wang raised his eyebrows and looked at him, with a flat mouth and a beard cocked, looking disbelieving.

"This advantage is that I am strict and don't like to talk nonsense. Satsuki said with a smile as she tried to look as sincere as possible.

After hearing this, Lord Wang took a closer look at this young man, his eyebrows were clear, his appearance was dignified, especially his eyes were faintly shining, but his body was thin. He remembered that when he met before today, this person was indeed silent, so he said: "What does Master Wen want to say, you don't have to hide it, please speak bluntly, this official doesn't like to talk around." ”

"It's just a chance encounter with Lord Wang, please don't suspect it. Xiao Yue's eyes curved into an arc, and she said with a smile: "Actually, I respect people like Lord Wang very much, so I just want to be close to each other." ”

Lord Wang looked at her suspiciously, and he didn't know whether what he said was true or false, and at this moment he heard someone shouting: "Master, master!"

When they turned their heads, they saw the quiet little maid Mu Shi panting and running in front of them: "I finally found you, my son-in-law is looking for you, hurry up and follow me back to the county office." ”

Xiao Yue raised her head, only to find that it was almost dark, and then said to Lord Wang: "Don't pass by today, and I will have the opportunity to ask Lord Wang for advice in the future." ”

Lord Wang was confused and said, "You're welcome, you're polite!" wondering why this master was eyeing him.

Mu Shi looked at the two of them and felt strange, how could this old farmer be an adult, but he didn't dare to slack off, so he quickly bowed and said, "The little eyesight is not good, please don't blame the adult." ”

Xiao Yue laughed and said, "Lord Wang is not a person with a small belly, so I won't blame you." Let's go, your son-in-law has probably waited for a long time. He bowed and said goodbye to Lord Wang, and returned to the county government with Mu Shi.

Xiaoyue and the others returned to the county government courtyard from the side door, and Wen Youyou was waiting for her to have dinner.

As soon as Xiao Yue entered the door, Wen Youyou pretended to be angry and said, "I don't look at the sky, I don't know what time it is, I don't know how to come back." ”

Xiao Yueyu smiled and said, "Master, I was wrong, I won't dare next time." ”

Wen Youyou sighed and said, "Forget it, let's eat." ”

Mu Shi brought the food to the table, and the two ate dinner without saying a word. Xiao Yue secretly glanced at Wen Youyou's face, and found that he was in a very bad mood, and he was absent-minded when eating, he didn't clip the vegetables and didn't pay attention to them, and he fed them mechanically to his mouth.

After dinner, he called Satsuki to the study.

"Your message is too brief, I can't even write where to go, how can I find you if I'm in a hurry!"

Xiao Yue felt that the whole atmosphere was too heavy from the time she ate to the present, and she was a little angry: "Wen Youyou, if you are in a bad mood, just say it directly, if the two of us have something to say directly!"

Wen Youyou found a chair and sat down, held her head in her hands and said, "Xiaoyue, I thought that the disaster was serious before I came, but I didn't expect it to be so serious. ”

Xiao Yue comforted: "No one wants this kind of natural disaster to happen, don't you? ”

"It's okay if it's a natural disaster, but ... He looked up, his eyes a little red.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yue was taken aback when she heard this, and walked into Wen Youyou and asked cautiously.

Wen Youyou shook his head, not wanting to answer.

Xiao Yue was a little angry, chopped her feet and said, "Don't you trust me?

"It's not that I'm trying to hide it from you, it's that even if you do, it won't help. Wen Youyou sighed.

"Don't you bother, talk halfway!" Xiao Yue angrily circled back and forth in the room.

As if remembering something, Wen Youyou suddenly stood up, walked to the desk, and picked up the message that Xiao Yue had written before.

He pointed to the last sentence of the message and asked, "What does this mean?"

Xiaoyue saw that it was the sixteen words she wrote impulsively at that time, "Don't lie about it, don't listen to floating, don't take a fancy name, and don't make fake things", which was the gossip of the teacher in her elective course in college that year, and she felt that this was helpful for being a person and doing things, so she wrote it down. Today, I saw all kinds of officials, so I didn't know how to write them down and give them to Wen Youyou.

Xiao Yue asked curiously, "You can't understand such a simple sentence?"

Wen Youyou stared at the message note deadly, as if he wanted to see through this thin paper, and said word by word: "Did you write this?"

Satsuki didn't want to say other people's famous sentences as her own: "No, I saw it from a book." ”

Wen Youyou turned his head and looked at her inquiringly: "The book?"

Xiaoyue found that she had no way to lie, because the books she read were all from Wen Youyou's family: "Maybe I heard it from someone else, I don't remember." ”

Wen Youyou tilted her head, not believing what she said at all.

Xiao Yue smiled weakly and said, "Who said it was so heavy?"

Wen Youyou looked at her left and right, sighed, and said helplessly: "It's not that I want to embarrass you, it's just that these few words are quite popular with me, so I want to know the origin." ”

Xiao Yue sneered: "Haha, it's good if you like it." It seems that my master still has a little effect. ”

Wen Youyou saw that she didn't want to say it, so she didn't ask, put down the message, turned to her and said, "There is something I want to discuss with you." ”

Seeing that he didn't ask any more, Xiao Yue breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said happily: "Well, you can talk about it!"

"I'm leaving Takeshiro tomorrow. Wen Youyou said seriously.

"Oh, then I'll go pack my bags now!" Satsuki was about to get up and leave.

Wen Youyou pulled her sleeve and said, "Didn't you hear clearly?"

Xiao Yue looked up at Wen Youyou and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

Wen Youyou's tone accentuated and repeated: "I just said that I was leaving Luodai Town tomorrow, not us." ”

Xiao Yue pulled her sleeve and said loudly, "Wen Youyou, what do you mean?" Even if he smelled the faint smell of citrus now, he couldn't eliminate the anger in Xiao Yue's heart.
