Chapter 223
Boss Qian said politely: "Mr. Wen, my niece and siblings are frightened and should not stay for a long time. Can we go back now?"

Magistrate Wen said: "I have nothing to do with today's matter. Please forgive me, Boss Qian."

Boss Qian said: "Your Excellency is busy with official duties, so we understand."

After the Xu family left, Wen Yuan asked, "Dad, why does my son feel that you are so polite to Boss Qian?"

Magistrate Wen sighed and said: "You don't understand many things. Remember, don't offend Juxiang Pavilion and the Xu family. They are not simple! If possible, it is best to make good friends. Xu Wenwu is not bad at such a young age. Such an achievement.”

Wen Yuan said: "My son also thinks Mr. Xu is good."

Magistrate Wen nodded and said: "By the way, Gao Yuan has been sent away, so your sister should stop going out and hiding all the time."

Wenyuan said: "Okay, but what should I say to my mother?"

"Don't worry, your mother knows the seriousness, I will go and talk to her."

...

After several people returned to Juxiang Pavilion, the old man said: "Boss, help your wife back to the room to rest. She was also frightened today."

"Yes, Dad."

Although the old man knew his granddaughter's abilities, he still asked uneasily: "Qibao, how are you? Are you injured anywhere?"

Qibao said: "Grandpa, don't you know what my granddaughter is capable of? No one can hurt me."

The old man said: "That's good, what happened today?"

Qibao told his grandfather the whole story in detail.

The old man sighed and said: "In this world, only people with a background can live happily! But today, Magistrate Wen's attitude towards us is a little different!"

Qibao did not tell the old man his suspicions, and said, "Grandpa, don't think so much. Today's matter is over here, and we have no other losses."

The old man said: "That's right! I'm afraid that Gao Yuan will never be able to get out of bed in his life."

In the afternoon, Juxiang Pavilion also began to slowly accept customers.

Boss Qian came to the backyard at this time and said: "Uncle Xu, Mr. Wen is here. He is in the third box upstairs. I specially invite you to come up and have a drink. Look..."

The old man was a little surprised, thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll be there in a minute."

Boss Qian didn't waste any time and continued working in the front hall.

The old man wondered: "Qibao, what does Wen Zhifu mean?"

Qibao said: "You'll find out when you go up."

The old man took Qibao and headed towards the second floor.

At this time, Uncle Xu and Mrs. Zhang also came out of the room, but did not see the old man. After asking the dean, they found out that his father had gone to the private room on the second floor to meet with Magistrate Wen.

He was a little worried. After all, they only came back from the Yamen at noon, and he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing that Magistrate Wen wanted to see his father, so he immediately followed them.

Mrs. Zhang thought that we were all a family and we had to handle things together, so she followed her husband and headed upstairs together.

When the two of them ran upstairs quickly, they saw his father and Qibao preparing to knock on the door of the box.

So he said: "Dad, why don't you inform us so that your son can come with you."

The old man said: "Why are you guys here too? Don't worry, I'll be fine. If Magistrate Wen really wanted to deal with us, he wouldn't have let us back so easily."

Uncle Xu thought about it and realized that it made some sense, but he still said resolutely: "Let me go in with dad! Otherwise, I won't be at ease."

"Yes, Dad, just let us go in with you." Mrs. Zhang also said.The old man finally nodded and said: "Okay, but don't talk casually when you go in, you know?"

"Got it, Dad."

The old man then started to raise his hand and knock on the box door.

It was Wen Yuan who opened the door. When he saw the old man coming, he said politely: "Mr. Xu, you are here. Please come in quickly."

The old man also bowed his hands and walked in with a few people.

However, he saw that there was not only Wen Zhifu in the box, but also a girl wearing a light blue fairy dress with wide sleeves, her peach cheeks were silent, and she had an orchid atmosphere sitting next to Wen Zhifu.

"Everyone, please take a seat." Magistrate Wen stood up and said politely.

The girl next to her also stood up following Yingying.

The old man immediately saluted and said, "I have met Master Wen. I wonder if there is any reason why you summoned me today?"

Magistrate Wen said: "Old man, please sit down and let's talk slowly."

The old man and Qibao looked at each other before nodding and sitting down.

"First of all, let me introduce to you. This is my youngest daughter, named Wendie. This is my son Wenyuan, who you all know."

Wendie smiled and said a blessing to the Xu family.

The old man returned the gift and said, "Master Wen, I wonder if you have anything to tell us?"

Magistrate Wen then said: "Because of what happened today, I apologize to the old man. Maybe you can see that my sentence today is indeed unfair to you."

The old man said: "The matter is over. You must have some difficulties, sir? I can see that you are a good official."

Magistrate Wen sighed and said: "Mr. Xu has been rewarded, and he is not considered a good official. The reason why I chose to take the high road today is because his mother is kind to my wife. My wife did not marry me before she married me." , I once encountered gangsters who extorted money and robbed me in the suburbs. It was his mother who asked someone to save my wife. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. The two were close in age and had the grace to save their lives, so they became sworn sisters until they got married. People don’t meet often.”

The old man said: "I see, but Master Wen, this is your family matter. You really don't need to explain it to us. Today's matter is over here. As long as my family is fine, I don't want to pursue it anymore."

Magistrate Wen said: "To be honest, I still want to thank you for what happened today!"

The old man was confused and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Magistrate Wen said: "The Gao family relies on my relationship. Gao Yuan's father has made a lot of money in Songshan County. Many squires or wealthy people have given him gifts to curry favor with him. In recent years, he has become more and more public in his work. If this continues , I am afraid that one day even I will be implicated by him, so I will use today’s incident to completely draw a clear line with the Gao family.”

Qibao suddenly said: "Prefect Wen is using us to solve his own worries?"

Magistrate Wen said: "Little girl, I didn't want to take advantage of you, but it is indeed my fault first, so the more I think about it this afternoon, the more uncomfortable I feel, so I am here to apologize to you."

The old man said: "Your Majesty, you are too polite. After all, you are also kind to us. When Juxiang Pavilion first came to Qingyun City, we ran into trouble, and it was you who helped us solve it."

Magistrate Wen was surprised and said: "This... you don't know?"

The old man was confused and asked, "What do you know?"

Magistrate Wen said: "At first I didn't know that the son of the previous master had caused trouble for Juxiang Pavilion. Later, a man in black came to me in the middle of the night with a token and asked me to take care of Juxiang Pavilion, so I checked it the next day. Only after learning about the situation in Juxiang Pavilion did we know what Chen Hu had done."

After hearing this, the old man was even more surprised and said, "Has the man in black ever told you his identity?"

Magistrate Wen said: "No, I just know that my identity is not simple. Does the old man know any important people in the capital?"

The old man thought for a moment and said, "There are two people I know, but I don't know their identities."
