After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Zhou Ruhai didn't dare to slack off, he stood up, took two steps forward, stared at the two poor people, and said angrily: "Count the two of you lucky today, for the sake of having something to do, I will spare you once for the time being, if you don't understand the rules in our family in the future, don't blame me for being polite." ”

The two messengers had already lost hope that they would complete the task, but when they heard Zhou Ruhai say this, the two of them suddenly realized that if they withstood the pressure and worked harder, maybe things would take a turn for the better.

"Thank you Master Zhou for your kindness, even if the two of us eat the bear's heart and leopard gall in the future, we won't dare to talk nonsense anymore." The two messengers lay on the ground, not even daring to lift their heads.

Zhou Ruhai was very satisfied with the attitude of these two poor people admitting their mistakes, he turned his head, looked at Lin Ajiao, and said in a consultative tone: "Daughter-in-law, you have already seen the matter, you young people have fast brains and are more thoughtful than us older people, in your opinion, should you wake up Ming'er?" ”

Before making a decision, the father-in-law was able to ask his own opinion in front of outsiders, which was already quite face-saving for Lin Ajiao.

Lin Ajiao's eyes rolled, and she didn't have stage fright, and immediately replied: "Dad, your old man has been wandering outside for so many years, and he must be higher than us juniors in terms of work ability and experience, so you must already have an idea in your heart about this matter."

But at such a critical moment, since you can afford your daughter-in-law and come to ask my opinion, then I can't help but be cheeky and say my opinion. ”

The reason why Zhou Ruhai asked Lin Ajiao's opinion was because he had been entangled in his heart and didn't know what to do.

Seeing Lin Ajiao boasting herself like this, Zhou Ruhai felt very useful, so he said with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, don't be too modest, if you have any ideas, just say it." ”

Mrs. Zhou stood beside her, feeling a little unbalanced in her heart, because she felt that even if her master wanted to find someone to discuss countermeasures, she should find herself.

"Dad, I think I should wake up Xianggong." Lin Ajiao didn't go around the bush, and directly said her thoughts, "After all, this matter is about that case, in case of Xianggong's absence, things go wrong, Xianggong will also be affected." ”

In fact, Zhou Ruhai had already made up his mind just now and planned to send someone to wake up Zhou Ming, but after thinking about it carefully, he hesitated again, because he felt that if he took care of everything and took the idea alone, if it turned out that his judgment was wrong afterwards, wouldn't he have to come out and take the blame?

It was precisely because of this idea that he wanted to pull someone to take responsibility with him, and he didn't consult his wife, he just didn't want to pull her into the water.

After hearing Lin Ajiao say this, Zhou Ruhai couldn't mention how happy he was, because after this decision came out of his daughter-in-law's mouth, even if it turned out that the decision was wrong later, it was the daughter-in-law who took the responsibility, and it had nothing to do with him.

"Well, since you think so, daughter-in-law, then I will respect your opinion." Zhou Ruhai pushed the boat down the river and hurriedly said, "Hurry up and tell Ming'er to get up." ”

Lin Ajiao was stunned in place, thinking that her father-in-law was too old and scheming, right? He was obviously discussing with himself just now, why did he directly say that he respected my opinion as soon as he said it? Could it be that this act of consulting me was a trap in order to deliberately lead me to express his opinion?

After thinking of this possibility, Lin Ajiao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and she had to admit in her heart that her father-in-law's move was too clever.

In a few words, the father-in-law not only played himself around, but also successfully separated him from this problem, even if it turns out that the current decision is wrong in the future, then this matter has nothing to do with him, after all, the person who finally said this decision is himself.

Mrs. Zhou watched coldly, and soon discovered the purpose of her lord's discussion with her daughter-in-law, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "The old man still feels sorry for me, and he didn't look for me to carry the black pot at the critical moment." ”

Although Lin Ajiao worked hard for a long time, she finally figured out her father-in-law's conspiracy, but it was too late, after all, the wood was already in the boat, even if she had great ability, it was impossible to save the defeat.

Faced with this situation, Lin Ajiao did not complain, nor did she get angry, she just felt that she was too careless just now, so that she capsized in the gutter and was plotted by her master.

On the one hand, she secretly made up her mind that she must be careful in what she said and did in the future, and on the other hand, she said goodbye to her in-laws with a smile on her face and went straight to the backyard.

Zhou Ruhai looked at the back of his daughter-in-law leaving, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, thinking if I was too despicable to do this? Let my daughter-in-law carry this black pot for no reason, she is young, if she can't bear this pressure in her heart and does something stupid, how can I be worthy of my son.

He lowered his head depressedly, and saw that the two poor men were still kneeling on the ground, so he said angrily, "What are you two still lying on the ground?" Don't stand up quickly, my son will come later, and you will speak to me with some rules. ”

"Yes, the little one knows." The two messengers replied cautiously as they stood up in a hurry.

The two of them stood aside, not daring to take a single step, and both of them thought to themselves that this errand was really difficult.

In fact, before they came to Zhou's house, they always thought that this was a beautiful difference, after all, yesterday Zhou Ming just made an immortal achievement, and today he came to their house and invited him back to the yamen.

But the ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, after coming here, they found out that this errand was simply not done by people, and they haven't seen Zhou Ming yet, just seeing his old father, it almost made the two of them take off a layer of skin.

The two of them really didn't dare to think that if Zhou Zhou Ming was woken up later and came to see them with anger, the two of them would be able to leave the Zhou family alive.

After all, no matter how fierce Zhou Ming's old father is, he is also an old man, and he has no martial arts cultivation himself, so he is ruthless, at most he scolds them a few words, and insults are almost lethal to them who are cheeky.

But Zhou Zhou Ming is different, his own martial arts cultivation is extremely high, and his temper is very irritable, if he is not in a good mood and beats you twice, it is estimated that ordinary people who do not have martial arts cultivation may even lose their lives.

The two messengers have been worried in the process of waiting for Zhou Ming, and they are very remorseful in their hearts, both of them feel that they really shouldn't take this errand because of greed, now it's good, not only can't get the reward, but they may even lose their lives.

Although Lin Ajiao walked straight to the backyard after coming out of the study, she was also very worried on the way, after all, she had already called Zhou Ming once just now, when Zhou Zhou Ming was furious and almost hit someone, if Huan'er hadn't appeared in time and relieved herself, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

If he called him again now, in terms of his temper, Lin Ajiao could imagine how angry he would be.

Although she knew that it was very dangerous to go, Lin Ajiao knew in her heart that she had to do this, after all, if she missed Zhou Ming's major event, the family fortune of the entire Zhou family would be greatly affected.

Lin Ajiao walked to the door of her and Zhou Ming's room, quietly pushed the door open, walked in quietly, and then tiptoed to the bed.

Zhou Ming lay on the bed, already asleep, because he slept too soundly, and snored.

Lin Ajiao looked at Zhou Ming sleeping soundly, and she couldn't bear to wake him up, but the matter was urgent, and she had to do it.

"Xianggong ......"

She called softly.

Zhou Ming did not respond.

"Xianggong, wake up." She raised her voice and screamed again.

At this time, Zhou Ming finally moved, then turned his head, opened his eyes with difficulty, and looked at Lin Ajiao: "What's wrong?" ”

Seeing that Zhou Zhou Ming didn't lose her temper, Lin Ajiao finally let go of her hanging heart, she immediately walked to the bedside, and said in a soothing tone: "Xianggong, someone from the south of the city has come to inspect the yamen, saying that the adults in the yamen invite you back to the yamen, and I have something important to tell you." ”

Zhou Zhou Ming was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly just now, and suddenly felt as if someone was calling him in his dream, he subconsciously turned around and saw a person standing in front of the bed.

He was startled, and then he woke up completely.

After coming to his senses, he found that the person standing next to him was none other than Lin Ajiao.

After being woken up this time, Zhou Zhou Ming didn't get angry, because he really didn't dare to mess around with the lessons of the previous car just now.

After listening to Lin Ajiao's words, he sat up suddenly and hurriedly got dressed, because he knew very well in his heart that with Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang's courage, if they didn't encounter something important, they would definitely not dare to send someone to call him.

"Who did they send? How many people came? Zhou Ming asked as he got dressed.

"There are two people in total, both dressed as officials, and I don't know who they are." Lin Ajiao told the truth.

Zhou Zhou Ming nodded, quickly got dressed, then turned around and said to Lin Ajiao: "Lady, there may be something big in the yamen, it seems that I have to go, don't go anywhere at home, protect our father and mother."

We caught so many northern thieves last night, and if they had accomplices, they would definitely not give up, and these people are not capable of going to the Yamen to rob the prison, and the only thing they can do is to take revenge on the families of our poor people.

So at home you have to be careful. ”

Hearing Zhou Ming say this, Lin Ajiao couldn't help but get nervous, but she didn't show this emotion, but still showed a calm look: "Don't worry, Xianggong, you just have to be busy with you, I have me at home." ”
