Chapter 437

About half an hour later, Zhong Jingren turned around, and when he came, his face was a little happy, and he waved Qin Su over, and said with a smile: "It's still Liu Niang's Yingwu, who actually thought of your uncle. When Sima Biebu mentioned this, he sent someone to send a letter to the city, and now your uncle is already waiting at the city gate, let's go into the city first."

Sima Biebu is a ninth-rank military officer in the army, and it seems that the leader of the gatekeeper is also a ninth-rank junior official, no wonder he bought Zuo Sikuang's face.

The crowd was busy again, and after the carriage moved, they entered the city smoothly. Qin Su looked out through the window screen, but saw that the rain had stopped, and the wet bluestone road was shining , Zuo Sikuang, dressed in official uniform, with a smile on his face, and a boy in green clothes, stood casually on the wide road beside the city gate.

I haven't seen him for a year, but he looks much lighter, his clothes are dangling on his body, his complexion is also very bad, there are many lines in the corners of his eyes, and there is a little hair on his temples.

Qin Shifang probably tossed him a lot.

Qin Su lowered the curtain of the carriage, and soon the carriage also stopped by the side of the road, Qin Su still supported Ah Kui to get out of the carriage, and went to greet Zuo Sikuang.

"Liu Niang has grown a lot taller, and my uncle hasn't seen you for a year, and your aunt misses you often." Seeing Qin Su, Zuo Sikuang's attitude was kind, his handsome and thin face was full of hunger. With a gentle smile.

Qin Su also smiled under the fence, bowed her waist and said: "I haven't seen my uncle and aunt for many days, and I miss them very much. How is my aunt? How are my cousins, cousins, and cousins?"

Hearing Qin Su's words about "cousins ​​and cousins", Zuo Sikuang's complexion darkened, and then he put on a smiling face and said warmly, "They are all fine."

No wonder, one of them is lame.

Qin Su rolled her eyes secretly, exchanged a few words with Zuo Sikuang, then stood aside quietly.

Zhong Jingren is the main character, as a junior, she just needs to stay honest.

In that room, Zhong Jingren thanked Zuo Sikuang repeatedly, and then interrupted Zuo Sikuang, Zuo Sikuang said: "This is a trivial matter, but because the city is now under strict control, I have not received any news, so I came late, and I have wronged Xunmei." Brother."

Xunmei is Zhong Jingren's character, and Zuo Sikuang called it by character, which also means respect.

Zhong Jingren also said the same words: "Brother Huai Jin is too polite, there is no need to come to the city gate in person, just send someone to come."

Zuo Sikuang flicked his sleeves when he heard the words, his expression was calm: "The affairs of the office are busy, and I also sneak in."

There was a hint of loneliness in his words, and his expression also showed a bit of loneliness. Qin Su looked at him coldly, and felt ridiculous in his heart.

The Marquis of Han'an Township had his tail twisted because of the case of land occupation and revocation. I'm afraid Zuo Sikuang's life will not be easy. In addition, Qin Shifang refuses to do his best to help him as before, without the Qin family's money , his life in the official office will only become more and more difficult.Now that Captain He died, Zuo Sikuang lost another point of help.

But I don't know, will Zuo Sikuang in this life be able to step on the blood and flesh of the Qin family like he did in the previous life, and make his way to the top?
Zhong Jingren is a person who is used to going around the rivers and lakes, and he is the most obedient. Now that he heard Zuo Sikuang's words, he immediately understood that he had no time to accompany the guests, so he stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Because of the delay along the way, Mrs. Tai It was arranged for us to stay in Pingcheng for one night, and Dong Guanshi was dispatched earlier to arrange the other courtyard properly. Now that everything in the courtyard is ready, Lieutenant Zuo should still focus on business, and don't delay the business because of us. "

Zuo Sikuang smiled as warmly as jade, raised his hand and stroked his beard and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll go back to the office first, brother Wan Wang Xunmei, don't blame me for being negligent. But..." He changed the subject slightly, and his expression changed Then he became solemn: "...now Pingcheng is not as usual, the inspection is extremely strict, especially the curfew is early at night, if Brother Xunmei is fine, don't walk around."

Zhong Jingren was about to ask him about the He family, upon hearing this, he immediately approached him and asked in a low voice: "I would like to ask you, what is going on with the He family? As far as I know, The folk customs here are simple and the people are rich, even if there are bandits occasionally, there is absolutely no one with such bloody means, and the He family has raised so many guards, why are they all slaughtered? Is there any news in the official office?"

When he spoke, his expression was very uneasy, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his face was full of panic.

Although the Qin family lives in Qingzhou, it is not far from Pingcheng after all. The guards in Pingcheng are much stricter than Qingzhou, but this kind of thing still happened, so it is not shocking.

When Zuo Sikuang heard the words, his face did not change at all, he just lowered his voice and said: "Brother Xunmei, don't worry too much, this is not the work of bandits, but someone went specifically for He's house."

"Oh?" Zhong Jingren's expression was relaxed at first, then frightened again, and he asked: "Could it be that He's enemies did it?"

Zuo Sikuang flicked his sleeves casually, and said calmly: "Is this... I don't know much about it. After all, this case is important, and the dead are county officials, so the news can't reach me." Stopped Stopped, and said apologetically: "I know Brother Xunmei is eager, and I am the same. But now I am also powerless, don't blame Brother Xunmei."

Qin Su wanted to laugh at the side.

After talking for a long time, isn't it just crying poor?Now that the two major supporters are gone, Zuo Sikuang finally wants to turn around and return to the embrace of the Qin family?

Sometimes he said he had no time to entertain guests, and another time he said he knew too little. This was because he thought the official was too young and wanted Zhong Jingren to pass the message to Mrs. Tai.

From this point of view, Qin Shifang may really not go to the Qin family much recently.

This is indeed good news.

After hearing Zuo Sikuang's words, Zhong Jingren was taken aback for a moment, then said "Don't dare" repeatedly, and then said: "The lieutenant is the mainstay of Jiangyang County, so why belittle yourself?"

He is only in charge of the Qin family's money. As for Zuo Sikuang's matter, he can't help much. Qin Su reckons he will mention it to Madam Tai. As for Madam Tai's attitude, he doesn't know Hard to say.

At this time, the two of them exchanged polite words for several rounds, Zhong Jingren asked the steward to bring over some boxes of gifts, and said, "I don't have time to go to the door, I'm afraid it will disturb the quiet, please transfer these gifts to the mansion" and so on.

Zuo Sikuang said a few words modestly, and then raised his hand to say goodbye to Zhong Jingren.The people in this car boarded the carriage again and went straight to the other courtyard of the Qin family in Pingcheng.

The Qin family's other courtyard occupies a large area. It was originally used for the Qin family's lords. At that time, they were all attached to the Xiao family's school. Sometimes they had to stay in Pingcheng when their homework was heavy. It was bought for this reason.

The carriage enters through the Xuanqi gate, and along the road, you can see the wind blowing willow temples and plain branches. There are actually large pear trees planted in the yard, and the green trees are full of snow among the green leaves. Flying all over the world, it seems like it has snowed again.

 Thank you for the safety charms for children's shoes such as Tsing Yi Menghu, Xuexue's, Ren Laoxin casually, Xiangyun Piaopiaoxi, etc., thank you for your monthly pass.
