Chapter 1514 It’s just the second grade

"You don't understand. Your mother and I have lived here for most of our lives. From a small shack to several houses, we watched you brothers being born. From not having enough to eat to eating whatever you want, We have feelings about this place.”

Tian Guihua smiled and nodded, indeed.

Fu Bajin stopped trying to persuade him. He could understand his parents' feelings.

"Okay, you talk to your parents, and I'll go cook." Zhong Lingxiu said.

"You?" Fu Bajin smiled bitterly, "Forget it, I'll do it."

Zhong Lingxiu rolled her eyes at him, "Do you think my cooking is not delicious?"

In fact, she had not been cooking for a few years. She wandered around with her brother at first, and later followed Fu Jiujiu, and she also lived a stable life, but most of the time her brother went to buy some food.

After marrying into the Fu family, there is no need for her anymore.

"He dares? That's because he feels sorry for you." Fu Baiwan said.

Fu Bajin and Zhong Lingxiu looked at each other and smiled.

……

In the cell, two government officials groped their chins and looked at Fu Jiujiu and Tang Xian's family, their eyes full of confusion.

"Do you think it's strange? They've been hungry for two days, but look at how they look like they haven't eaten. Look, that kid is very strong."

The other one also nodded, "Yes, I didn't dare to give him food even though he was ordered by his superiors."

"I didn't even give you what you said."

The two of them looked at each other to make sure that neither of them had done anything, and became even more confused.

Not to mention being detained for two days, even if he was detained for two years or twenty years, Fu Jiujiu would not have to worry about food and drink.

But she didn't want to stay here all her life. She had already sent someone to send out news, not asking for help, but coming little by little. If she encountered them this time, she would have to find out all these people.

As soon as the county magistrate returned home with his daughter, he was stopped by the housekeeper and whispered something. Ye Qian was not interested and was about to leave when she saw her father getting ready to go out.

"What's wrong, Dad?"

"It's nothing. Just stay at home. By the way, you can't go to jail again before I come back."

"Why?" Ye Qian asked puzzledly.

"There's no time to explain. I have to go see the prefect. Remember what I said." Ye Qianyuan left in a hurry.

However, Ye Qian didn't take it seriously. How could she not ridicule Fu Jiujiu in the prison?

Fu Jiujiu was not angry. The more she acted like this, the angrier Ye Qian became, "Why are you laughing? When my father comes back, you will be finished."

"Are you sure it's us who's finished, not you?"

"How is it possible for us? Stop dreaming. No matter who you are looking for, we are not afraid."

Fu Jiujiu curled his lips, but he felt that this girl didn't have such deep scheming, so it was a breakthrough, "We are looking for officials from the capital, are you not afraid of your father?"

"Afraid? Haha, what's wrong with the officials in the capital? There aren't many people I know in the capital."

Tang Xian continued to ask: "Who do you know? Are you sure they are as good as we know?"

"Huh, don't worry about it. Anyway, don't say I didn't give you a chance. Now that you've kowtowed and admitted your mistake and paid the money, my father might be able to let you go."

"The person we are looking for is Mr. Zhong Lingyu Zhong. We are related."

"Who is Zhong Lingyu? I've never heard of him, who is he?" Ye Qian asked.

Zhong Lingyu was a second-grade governor. He had handled many cases and inspected many officials in recent years. Tang Xian valued him very much.

Tang Xian wanted to see how big an official he was and who he was, and how deep he was hiding. "Second grade, governor!"

"What do I think he is?" Ye Qian sneered, "He's just a second-class official. Unfortunately, I thought you were so powerful. I also thought he might be a relative of the emperor."

She looked at Fu Jiujiu proudly, as if he was dead, "So that's it."

"Isn't the second-grade Zhengzhi big enough? If something happens to us, he won't ignore it."

"You have committed a crime and violated the king's law. No one can save you."

Fu Jiujiu frowned. How dare a small county magistrate dare to confuse right and wrong like this? How many people had been wronged by them before?

"Then which god do you know? Tell me and I'll listen!"

"My dad is..." Ye Qian's words stopped abruptly, and then she rolled her eyes at Fu Jiujiu, "You think I'm stupid, so I won't tell you. Stop dreaming."

"Anyway, you can't afford to offend the people we know, huh."

After Ye Qian finished speaking, she dusted herself off and left arrogantly.

"Didn't I tell you not to give them food? How can you give them back? You don't want to live anymore?"

"No... Miss, I didn't... didn't give it. Those people... don't know what's going on!"

Ye Qian stared at them coldly, naturally not believing what they said, "Did that woman promise you any benefits? Don't think that I don't know about your deeds. I tell you, they have offended me. Who dares to give them a back door?" Just against me."

"It's unjust, young lady, we are really unjust. We really didn't give anything, not even a bit of saliva."

"Do you think I'm stupid too?" Ye Qian punched and kicked the yamen servant. "She doesn't look like she's not eating or drinking. She looks more energetic than me."

The officials wanted to explain, but seeing that the eldest lady was angry, they had no choice but to admit their mistake.

Ye Qian scolded them again before leaving.

The officials decided to keep an eye on them tonight to see what they were up to.

That night, Ye Qianyuan arrived at the prefect.

"Sir, if you call me to come here, are those people whose identities you cannot offend?"

"It's not that I can't be offended, but I've run into some tough trouble."

"They...what are their backgrounds?"

The prefect curled his lips and said, "There is news from the capital. A relative of a second-rank governor passed by and said that there was no news. He must have been detained by you."

"Yes, the two big ones and the five small ones are doing business, and a few servants have escaped. This is how the news should have spread."

"Sir, I can't make up my mind whether I should let him go or keep him. But looking at them, I feel a little confident."

"Let go? Haha, that lord is the most unfaithful and upright person. His father exposed the matter of Prime Minister Yan, and he is just like his father. He will not care about his relatives when they make mistakes."

"Made a mistake? Yes, made a mistake. They are related to a murder case."

"That's it, just blow up the oil and water, people... you know."

"Yes, yes, my lord, your birthday is next month. I will definitely come."

Ye Qianyuan meant to give the money this time to the prefect.

"Sir, this news came from the person in the capital? Then how about..."

The prefect gave him a cold look, "What, you want to get past me?"

Ye Qianyuan quickly shook his head, "No, no, no, how dare you, Xianguan? Xianguan is your subordinate, sir. He was raised by you, so he will naturally work for you."
