Chapter 274 A False Alarm

Although Chen Ren was on a secret visit, the grand manner in which they entered the village still alarmed the villagers.

When the people in the village learned that the person Ye Beixiu brought back was the county magistrate, they were even more shocked.

The village head Ye Jidong also ran over and knelt down to kowtow to Chen Ren.

Chen Ren smiled and helped Ye Jidong up. "The head of the village is here too. It's just right that you two can accompany me. Let's take a good walk."

Chen Ren looked at the hilltop that Ye Beixiu had opened up, and then at the chickens he raised and the trees he planted, and the smile on his face became brighter.

"Okay, okay, okay."

"There are medicinal herbs grown in the mountains over there, and sheep are raised further in. Look, sir, there are also quite a few wild rabbits in our mountains!"

Ye Jidong lost himself listening to Chen Ren's praise and blurted out everything he knew.

"Good, that's great. Today's trip is really a big surprise for me."

Chen Ren raised his head, looked at the courtyards at the foot of the mountain, and asked curiously, "What are these courtyards?"

Before Ye Beixiu could speak, Ye Jidong spoke first, "Your Excellency, originally this courtyard was only occupied by Beixiu's family, and later his grandfather and his uncle's family also moved in."

Ye Beixiu breathed a sigh of relief and invited Chen Ren to his home for tea.

Chen Ren shook his head. "That's not right! So there should be three families. Why do I see so many yards?"

"There is a female family that settled in our village. Another courtyard is..."

Ye Jidong still had some concerns in his heart and couldn't help but look at Ye Beixiu.

Chen Ren saw the trick and said, "Let's go and take a look."

When he arrived at the door of the workshop, Ye Beixiu had to tell the truth.

Chen Ren was in an extremely good mood, "Ye Beixiu, Ye Beixiu, you and your wife are so capable.

Well, now that I'm here, I have to go in and take a look."

Song Yu brought Liu Jinhua and Li Yulan to greet them. When they saw the magistrate, they knelt down and kowtowed without saying a word.

Chen Ren smiled and asked them to stand up.

After taking a tour of the workshop, they came to Zhang Juexia's home with satisfaction.

Wang Guilan and Zhao Baofeng heard the noise and came over to help them boil water and cook.

Wang Guilan had a smile on her face. After all, the county magistrate came to her grandson's house, which was a great joy!

Zhang Juexia was in a bad mood and looked outside with a lot on his mind.

Li Yingyue pushed her and said, "How about we go outside and take a look?"

"It's the same whether you watch it or not. It's better not to go. I hope your uncle will take our good relationship into consideration and show some mercy when he kills you."

Li Yingyue sighed, hung her head and said nothing more.

Wang Guilan glanced at them and said, "These two kids must be so happy."

Outside, a crowd of people surrounded Chen Ren and brought him to Zhang Juexia's house.

Chen Ren was welcomed to the seat of honor. After the tea was served, they drank it and talked about family matters.

Zhang Juexia tilted his head and looked inside, thinking to himself, looking at this attitude, he doesn't seem to be arrogant at all, but you can only judge a person by his appearance but not his heart!

Zhang Juexia was unwilling to give in, so he took the opportunity to pull Ye Beixiu aside and asked, "How is it?"

Ye Beixiu shook his head. "I saw everything I should and shouldn't have seen."

Zhang Juexia was completely disappointed.

Chen Ren's laughter was very hearty. Zhang Juexia found it very creepy and got goose bumps all over his body.

She advised herself that no matter what the result was, she should accept it calmly and start over.

Chen Ren gave orders in the room, "Ye Beixiu, your wife's name is Zhang Juexia, right?"

"yes."

"Okay, let your wife make me some of the good things you have in the mountains.

I want to taste this wild game delicacy."

Although Zhang Juexia was not in the mood, he still gritted his teeth and made some home-cooked dishes for Chen Ren.

When the dishes were served, Chen Ren ate them with relish.

After dinner, he didn't say anything, just patted his butt and left.

It was Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia's turn to be shocked, and they just left.

"After I return, I will report this to the court.

Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia, you have been reborn from the brink of despair!

In this deep forest, you have given me so many surprises.

Good, good, not only do you live a good life, but you also help the people in the village live a good life. You are simply a model for the court!

I will report this to the court and ask them to reward you."

Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu were still in a daze until Chen Ren's team walked far away.

Li Yingyue patted Zhang Juexia on the back and said, "Come back to your senses. I was wondering if you were overjoyed after hearing what my uncle said."

Zhang Juexia glanced back at Li Yingyue and leaned on her. "If I had known your uncle came to our house for this purpose, I wouldn't have put so much peppercorns in my lunch."

"I thought you did this on purpose, but it turns out you did it on purpose. However, it does taste delicious."

Ye Beixiu took Zhang Juexia's hand and walked forward, "I really didn't expect that the magistrate's purpose was this. You know, I also actively spoke up.

No, we have to go and thank the village head, he's the one who talked the most today."

When they arrived at the house, Ye Jidong and Ye Jishun were both holding teapots and drinking water. "Today's food is spicy and salty. I watched the magistrate eat with relish, but I didn't dare to put down my chopsticks. I had to eat with him.

It’s really hard for us two old men.”

"That's right, Juexia, didn't you ask the county magistrate about his preferences in advance and cook according to his taste?"

Zhang Juexia hummed guiltily.

Li Yingyue couldn't hold it back any longer and laughed out loud.

"Miss Li, you didn't go back to the county town with your uncle?"

"No, I'm going back to town and to my uncle's house in a while."

Ye Jishun really couldn't figure out the relationship here and could only say "hmm".

Ye Jidong hurriedly pulled Ye Beixiu aside and asked, "Did the magistrate leave any message?"

Ye Beixiu repeated Chen Ren's words to Ye Jitong.

Ye Jidong stood up excitedly, slapping the table and saying, "You really guessed it right. I thought the county magistrate came here for a purpose, so I told him everything I know.

Okay, okay, if I had known I would have said a few more words!"

Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia couldn't help but say, "Grandpa, you've said enough."

Ye Jidong praised Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia a lot before leaving reluctantly.

Li Yingyue felt that she was a little redundant, so she called her followers and prepared to return to Jinshui Town.

Zhang Juexia sent her out and said, "Tomorrow, I will go to the Li Mansion to find you and visit my aunt. Then I will go back to the county town."

She watched as Li Yingyue's carriage disappeared, and then she prepared to go home.

The rustling sounds beside her made her heart rise to her throat again. Before she could shout, the man jumped out.
