"No, no, I didn't think so!" Seeing her red eyes, Duan Yixu shook his head desperately, his big eyes were full of anxiety.

He really just wanted to play a joke on her, to make her happy, how did he know that he would make her cry?

Beibei was about to make a noise to drive him away, when he heard his brother's urgent voice in the yard: "Beibei, get up quickly, the Jin Lords from the government office are here, I will take them to the breeding ground first."

After the full boat called, it hurried out of the yard.

Beibei was a little surprised, she thought those people in the yamen would not arrive until noon at least.

Duan Yixu saw that she was about to go out after getting off the bed and putting on her coat, so she hurriedly asked, "Beibei, is the Lord Jin your brother is talking about Jin Cheng? What is he here for?"

"It's none of your business here, get out!" Beibei fastened her clothes, opened the door and left the room without even looking at him.

Duan Yixu followed two steps before realizing that he would frighten people if he followed out like this, so he jumped out of the window anyway.

Before Beibei approached the small stone house, he saw Jin Cheng and two other yamen servants standing in front of the stone house from a few meters away, enjoying the tea and pastries brought by Shui Xing, while the uncle, uncle and elder brother were standing next to them. When Jin Cheng said something, Jin Cheng said "huh" without saying a word.

Beibei's eyes turned cold, and the investigation has not yet started, so let's drink tea and eat cakes first!

Beibei walked over, and asked Jin Cheng with a half smile: "Master Jin, are you and the two elder brothers coming here?"

Jin Cheng glanced at Bei Bei and smiled: "The government has regulations. As long as no one is killed and the matter is not serious, at most three people can only be sent to check it. The three of us are already the limit stipulated by the government. I also ask Miss Beibei to be more considerate."

"Please excuse my ignorance, my little girl, and I ask Lord Jin to tell you that our loss of tens of thousands of taels of silver is not a big deal, so what kind of thing would it take to be a big deal?" Beibei asked with a sneer.

As soon as Beibei's voice fell, Duan Yixu's voice also recalled coldly a few meters away: "Please also ask Master Jin to tell this young master, when did your government government have such a regulation, why didn't this young master know about it?"

This Jin Cheng was clearly trying to evade, Duan Yixu's expression turned cold after hearing this.

Jin Chengmeng looked sideways, seeing Duan Yixu and Lu Hui walking towards this side, his face changed involuntarily, he hurriedly stuffed the tea in his hand back into the food box in Shui Xing's hand, and greeted them.

Seeing Duan Yixu's uneasy expression, the other two yamen servants hurriedly put the refreshments in their hands back into the food box.

"So it's Young Master Duan and Housekeeper Lu!" Jin Cheng walked up to the two of them and smiled flatteringly at them.

Duan Yixu didn't give Jin Cheng any face, snorted coldly at him, and walked towards Bai Dinghai and others with his sleeves thrown.

Fortunately, Lu Hui is not as temperamental as Duan Yixu, he smiled at Jin Cheng and said, "Master Jin, what a coincidence, today I can see you in the fishing village even if it is not a fish market."

"Isn't there a case? The magistrate sent us to take a look." Jin Cheng smiled at Lu Hui anxiously.

He knew that the girl of this family was the savior of the young master of the Duan family, but how could he know that it would be such a coincidence that the young master of the Duan family would also come here today.

If he had known, he wouldn't have rushed here yesterday evening just to covet Bai Manchuan's ten taels of silver.

"So that's the case!" Lu Hui smiled, looked at Bei Bei who was not far away who was looking at his young master coldly, and asked, "I don't know what happened to Miss Bei Bei's house?"

Lu Hui accompanied Duan Yixu to the fishing village last night, so he hasn't received any news from the people below, and he doesn't know about the poisoned fish in the farm.

"I heard that the fish they raised were poisoned to death," Jin Cheng finished, and added: "We are going to check their breeding grounds."

"Let's go together." Lu Hui frowned imperceptibly, then smiled at Jin Cheng.

"Okay, please, Housekeeper Lu." Hearing that Lu Hui wanted to intervene in this matter, Jin Cheng couldn't help but wailed from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

Before Jin Cheng came to the fishing village, he had received instructions from the magistrate of the county, saying that only a few fish had died, so he could come over and show off, so as not to waste manpower to track down. It is enough to do the superficial work at home.

But today, the young master and housekeeper Lu obviously want to take care of this matter to the end, it seems that there is no way to fix this matter!

Duan Yixu ignored Jin Cheng, went over to greet Bai Dinghai and the others, and finally turned around and asked Beibei in a gracious manner: "I heard that something happened to Miss Beibei's family, I wonder if there is anything I can do for you." place?"

Looking at the pretending Duan Yixu, Beibei didn't expose him, but just sneered at him and said, "Don't dare to trouble Master Duan."

Duan Yixu turned his back to Bai Dinghai and the others, looking at her with pleading eyes, wanting to ask for her forgiveness.

But Beibei looked away and didn't even look at him.

Duan Yixu was a little frustrated, so he had to look at Lu Hui. He didn't know what happened to Beibei, so he called all the people from the government office.

Lu Hui went to Duan Yixu's side and whispered a few words to him, Duan Yixu's expression became even colder after hearing this.

Man Chuan took a group of people to the breeding ground to check the scene, and Lu Hui was slightly surprised when he saw the dead fish floating on the sea.
Although he knew about the Bai family's breeding of deep-sea fish, Lu Hui couldn't help being surprised when he saw so many rare deep-sea fish.

He knew that raising deep-sea fish was Beibei's idea, and she was the one who taught her family to raise deep-sea fish. Now that all these fish have been poisoned to death, she should be very angry, but she looks very calm.

"How do you know that these fish were poisoned to death?" Jin Cheng looked at the full boat and asked. When this kid went to report to the official yesterday, he said that the fish were poisoned to death. I don't know if the fish was really poisoned.

"Grandpa Jin," Beibei said, "You came to investigate the case, why didn't you bring me here?"

There was an obvious question in her tone, Jin Cheng choked for a moment, and said, "Wu Zuo happened to have something to do and didn't come to the Yamen yesterday, and we were in a hurry, so we didn't call him."

"Oh, what a coincidence!" Beibei laughed mockingly, showing that she didn't believe Jin Cheng's words.

Normally, Beibei wouldn't be so impulsive, but she was played by Duan Yixu just now, and now seeing Jin Cheng trying to fool her, she didn't get angry, and unconsciously vented her anger on Jin Cheng.

Because of Duan Yixu and Lu Hui's presence, Jin Cheng was so sneered at by her, even if he was annoyed, he could only endure it, he paused, and then smiled resentfully: "It's quite a coincidence."

"How can this case be solved if the assistant didn't come?!" Beibei asked again.
