Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress

Chapter 339 The Prefect Arrives (2)

Although he said he was sorry, there was no trace of fear on his face. Cao Jin was the adopted son of the chief steward of Duke Anguo in the capital, and a close friend of the future head of the Huo family, the richest man in the Jin Dynasty. Therefore, even if Magistrate Han met him, , and you must give him three points of thin noodles!

Magistrate Han cheerfully returned the favor and said, "Brother Cao, you're too polite. It's said that I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Today, I and Zhuo Jing took the liberty of visiting. In fact, I was entrusted by someone to come here for a good thing, so I disturbed him." I hope Brother Cao can forgive me. "

After saying that, he nodded to Mu Zhongqing and said, "Mu Xiucai, we just met. I never thought we would meet again so soon!"

Magistrate Han was a fourth-rank imperial official, and was an unattainable figure in the eyes of ordinary people. When Mu Zhongqing saw that Magistrate Han took the initiative to greet him, he hurriedly left his seat to salute Magistrate Han.Hunted, Magistrate Han grabbed him, pulled him to a chair, and sat him down. Mu Zhongqing was stunned.

Why did the prefect treat him so politely? Over there, the prefect's wife, Mrs. Han, had already nodded to say hello to Mrs. Du.

Mrs. Du was hesitating whether to take the children away, when she saw the magistrate's wife smiling and saying hello to her, she got down and respectfully replied to Mrs. Han's words.

Mrs. Han was as approachable as Magistrate Han and refused to accept Mrs. Du's courtesy. She stepped forward and took her arm, sat down together, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Mu, you are welcome. You and I are similar in age, and we feel like old friends at first sight. If you don't dislike her, , just call me sister!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Du felt like she was struck by lightning, and she was dumbfounded.

Why does the wife of a dignified fourth-rank official take the initiative to get close to her and treat her like a sister? Is it because her husband's talent for guessing lantern riddles was revealed and he was noticed by the prefect Han?

No, even if he is favored by Magistrate Han, the most he can do is to praise and encourage him. There is no need to be so attentive and courteous. Magistrate Han and his wife are just trying to please them. , they... what do they have to please Lord Chifu?

Mu Zhongqing and Mrs. Du were both frightened and confused by the unusually affectionate behavior of the magistrate and his wife. Cao Jin was very sober now, and she had guessed eighty-nine percent of the purpose of the magistrate and his wife's visit.

He rolled his eyes, frowned and raised his forehead, secretly grinding his teeth and gnashing his teeth: That boy had clearly agreed with him to let Duke An Guo recognize their family first, and then he would come back when the little girl had a similar identity. The proposal of marriage was naturally a matter of course at that time, but why did he suddenly change his mind?

It only took a few days to recognize them. Why couldn't he wait any longer and proposed marriage so presumptuously? Even if the Mu family agreed, how could the Huo family agree?

Mrs. Huo pays most attention to family status. It would be fine if she let the girl marry him as a girl from the Anguo Duke's mansion. If she lets her bear the identity of the daughter of a scholar from Mujia Village, even if she lets the girl marry into the Huo mansion and become a This concubine is something that the old lady always dislikes!

"Hahaha….."

Magistrate Han smiled heartily, like a Maitreya Buddha, with teeth but no eyes.

"Mu Xiucai, to be honest, I was entrusted by someone today to recruit the eldest daughter of Mu Xiucai's family on that person's behalf!"

As soon as this statement came out, in addition to Cao Jin, Mu Zhongqing, Du Shi, Cai Wei, Cai Fei, and even Wen'er and Wu'er were all shocked!

How is this going? How could anyone come to propose marriage in this unfamiliar place? Who proposed the marriage? He also found an official as big as the Lin'an prefect to attack him. Who could have such a big reputation?

The first thing Caiwei thought of was the monster.
