In the hall of the county government, Huang hugged a child less than a year old and cried profusely.

It's been a long time, and Xiao Chenyu hasn't come yet.

The people in the lobby had long since turned from sympathy to impatience. Even Huang's tears had long since dried up, and he could only howl a few times from time to time.

The child cried several times, and was hungry again, Tao Niang had to hold the child behind the screen to feed, and a few boring and dirty officials couldn't help but secretly look at the screen, although they couldn't see it, but it didn't prevent many absurd ideas from being generated in their minds.

The county magistrate looked at this absurd scene, and also found an excuse to go to the back, first soaked a soak of urine, and then cleaned his hands, and then sat down and drank tea slowly.

The master stepped forward and asked, "My lord, why hasn't this Xiao Chenyu come yet?" Could it be that the heart is weak and afraid? ”

The county commander shook his head and pondered for a moment: "I think about it now, this Su Lao Er may not really see who the person who entered the fire is, and he also came for the silver." ”

"Then, why did your lord make today's thing again?"

"You know what? That list may not be in his possession. The county magistrate glared at the master, and sighed again: "It's a pity that their husband and wife have offended people, and I also took this opportunity to give the Zhang family a favor." ”

Regarding Su Laoer's words, the county order is unbelievable.

However, at first, he wanted to give Xiao Chenyu, who was respectful on the surface but actually sleek, a dismount, so he sent people to Su Lao Er to the Xiao family, first, to ask the Xiao family to recognize his favor; Second, it is to knock on the new people who are now in the limelight and almost surpass themselves as the county commanders: how about lifting people, and what about good people? Don't you want to listen to the orders of me, the county magistrate?

Regarding the matter of Su Lao Er, the county order has already been put down, just knock and knock, there is no need to make a feud.

But two days ago, I received a letter from the Zhang family in Dancheng, which hinted at the dissatisfaction with Xiao Chenyu and his wife.

But the Xiao family and the Qin family in Dancheng have resumed contact, and they are very close to the Lu family, and Xiao Chenyu's reputation has flourished during this period of time, which is not easy to handle.

Therefore, when the county magistrate was weighing what to do, his subordinates reported that Su Lao Er was injured at home, and the reason was that the gifts from the Xiao family attracted robbers.

He suddenly had an idea, and privately sent someone to find the Huang family and teach the Huang family how to achieve benefits step by step.

Although Huang was greedy for money, she didn't have the courage to enter the yamen, but she really couldn't let go of the benefits, so she told Su Lao Er, and Su Lao Er heard it and hurriedly pounced on her.

Su Lao Er said: "This Qin Xun and Xiao Chenyu's family is very rich, the maids wear gold and silver, and they don't know how their family made their home, I look at it, I'm afraid the silver won't be used up." ”

As soon as these words came out, Huang and Tao Niang both widened their eyes, not only surprised, but also envious and jealous.

Seeing the Huang family like this, Su Lao Er was overjoyed, and then flickered: "Moreover, this Xiao Chenyu is a useless scholar, and his reputation is more important than his life, if you go to the Yamen, he will definitely be afraid, and he will definitely subsidize us with a lot of silver." ”

Tao Niang also wiped away her tears on the side, and said to the Huang family: "Sister, if it weren't for those things they gave, how could our family be like this?" Our child is still so young, and I am only pregnant in this belly, how should I live in the future? ”

In order to gain everyone's sympathy, the Huang family also decided to take away Tao Niang's daughter, although Tao Niang cried and was unwilling, but Huang couldn't resist it.

Now that Su Lao Er is bedridden, this family can only listen to the Huang family, Tao Niang thought that as soon as the Huang family left, she would go to Su Qiang to discuss what to do in the future?

However, when Huang was leaving, he called Tao Niang together, and Su Lao Er also agreed to Tao Niang to go, and Tao Niang could only hold the child and follow.

By the time Xiao Chenyu finally arrived at the county office, it was almost noon.

He strode in and bowed his hand to the county magistrate who had just sat down: "It's too late to come down, and I hope your lord will forgive me?" ”

Although he said words of forgiveness, his attitude was very casual, perfunctory, and even a little impatient, which was completely different from the previous tactfulness.

The county commander's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he looked at the man who was getting better and better.

The first time I saw Xiao Chenyu, it was he who asked for a woman in prison for his father-in-law, and Xiao Chenyu was sleek and humble and flattering, and he was cautious when talking to himself.

I've seen it a few times later, but this person is always smiling, like a clay figure who doesn't know what to be angry about, and the smile on his face seems to be fixed on his face, which is very fake and hypocritical.

It's just that this time, this person finally showed his true colors, he is not a clay man, and he can be manipulated by others at will.

I don't know why, but the county order was actually a little excited, as if this matter was finally a little interesting.

Now Xiao Chenyu doesn't need to kneel down to worship the county order, so he stands aside and looks at the county order in front of him with his hands behind his back.

The county commander waved his hand: "Give Xiao Juren a seat!" ”

The official brought a heavy chair over and placed it on the right side, facing the kneeling Huang.

Xiao Chenyu didn't thank him, walked over and sat down, leaning on the back of the chair quite comfortably, and then turned his eyes to the Huang family, who was already dumbfounded.

"My lord, this woman is climbing and biting me at will, shouldn't she put on a few boards first?"

Huang was shocked and said sharply: "You dare, I am your aunt and your daughter-in-law's aunt." ”

"You husband and wife have come to the county government again and again to sue me, but you are addicted? If a person is allowed to be falsely accused by people who have no fame, but no one is in charge of me, then I don't want to be famous! ”

This was said by looking at the Huang family, in fact, it was said to the county commander.

The county commander's eyes widened, and he asked Xiao Chenyu in a cold voice: "What does Xiao Juren mean by this?" Could it be that you want to oppress the official as a person? Let this official not stand up for this desperate woman and child? Hmph, this official told you that this official has never been a person who is afraid of the powerful. ”

Qin Xun walked in from outside the door, followed by a number of maids and servants.

Of course, Uncle Qi and several other guards who were not easy to mess with at first glance followed, and at the same time, many ordinary people came to see the excitement and blocked the yamen from being lively.

The county order originally wanted to be above board, so the door of the county government was not closed, but it never thought of making it public.

But now that I see so many people coming, I can't stop it anymore.

Qin Xun and the others were all stopped outside the door, Qin Xun raised his hand, pointed at himself and said, "The things given to my second uncle are all prepared by me, and if the adults want to ask, hold them accountable, and track them down, they should let me in." ”

As a last resort, Qin Xun walked in, and Qing Cang and Qing Gu helped her to naturally follow in, as for the others, they naturally couldn't enter.

Qin Xun's belly was very big, so naturally it was impossible for her to kneel, Xiao Chenyu gave up the seat to Qin Xun, and the county order had no choice but to arrange a seat for Xiao Chenyu.

After seeing Qin Coward, an acquaintance, the Huang family was not so afraid.

She cried and looked at Qin Xun: "Xun'er, my good niece, your second uncle him."

"Uncle, it's rare for you to remember that I am your niece. Don't you know my address? Am I going to hit you with a stick when you come to the door? Since I am your good niece, why didn't I tell us first when something happened, but came to the county office without saying a word? Could it be that there is something about this county government that attracts you and your second uncle? As long as you come to the county office, you can get great benefits? ”

After speaking, his eyes looked at the county order intentionally or unintentionally, and his eyes were cold and seemed to be highly poisonous.
