She patted Yin Keyin's hand.
"Why are you bothering this country old lady? This is beneath our status. She said you are pregnant, so you are pregnant? Didn't I tell you not to listen to gossip?"
"I'll listen to Aunt Gu." Yin Keyin lowered her head, looking well-behaved.
Gu nodded in satisfaction. She just liked Yin Kexin's easy-to-control personality. She would do whatever she was told and never talk back.
She didn't even look at Li, and walked towards the yamen runner guarding the gate with her chin raised.
"Where is your Lord Zheng? Call him out."
"Madam, if you have any grievances, you can beat the drum to appeal." The bailiff was impartial in his duties.
The servant girl beside Gu came forward and asked, "Do you know who my wife is? How dare you answer me like that?"
"I don't care who you are. Anyone who comes here must follow the rules." The bailiff was unhappy and had a sullen face.
The maid wanted to curse, but was stopped by Gu's look.
With a smile on her face, she took a silver ingot, wrapped it in a silk handkerchief, and tried to pass it to the bailiff through the handkerchief.
"I am Mr. Zheng's biological mother. Go in and inform him."
"My Lord has said that bribery is a serious crime!"
The bailiff took two steps back.
Gu gritted her teeth, wondering why this guy was so stubborn.
“Haha~”
Lee laughed out loud, not even trying to hide it.
Gu turned around and stared at Li.
This old lady is so annoying.
She gave the servant a look.
After receiving the order, the old woman walked towards Li aggressively.
As soon as she raised her hand, Su Yun shouted.
"Brother, help me! How dare someone commit a crime at the gate of the yamen? Isn't this a slap in the face of Mr. Zheng?"
The bailiff drew out an iron ruler and pointed it at the servant.
This iron ruler is a bit like a triangular fork, but it is short on both sides and long in the middle, and is very sharp.
He said coldly, "Bold!"
Gu looked unhappy. When she saw Jin'er, she would make sure he dragged this ignorant yamen runner away and beat him to death with sticks.
She coughed and the old woman came back to her.
Li and Su Yun passed by Gu.
She waved her hands. "What's that smell? Why does it smell so much like a house-born child? Some people, even if they become the legal wife, still can't change their servant habits. They smell like a petty family!"
"You..." the old woman was angry.
Gu held the man down. This old lady was not simple. She had a child at home. No one mentioned it since she got married. Few people in the capital knew about it.
Gu forced a smile and said nothing.
Li approached the yamen runner and said, "Please go inside and report. I want to look for Master Jingsi."
The bailiff nodded.
The maid was not convinced, "Why did you go when she asked you to report it, but you didn't show a good face to my wife? If your master knew about it, you would be in trouble."
The bailiff ignored him and rolled his eyes.
He doesn't even consider other people's attitudes. The younger ones call him "big brother" and the older ones are polite.
Unlike you three, you all want to look down on others with your two nostrils raised.
After the bailiff went in, Su Yun kept staring at Li.
[How did my grandma know that Mr. Zheng's mother was a family-born child? ]
Li pretended not to hear and stood there calmly.
From time to time, he would deliberately brush off the dust on his body and throw it towards Gu.
[My grandma is quite childish.] Su Yun raised the corners of her mouth.
Jingsi came out with Zheng Yanjin, and the bailiff finally told him what happened at the door.
Zheng Yanjin looked at Gu, feeling disappointed.
He didn't expect that his mother would really come.
"Mom, please go back to my house first. I'll come to find you when I'm done with my work." Zheng Yanjin called a yamen runner to take Gu and the others away.
Mrs. Gu still gave her son some face outside. She nodded when she heard this, but didn't say anything.
But before leaving, he glared at Li.
Li complained, "Master Zheng, your mother sent someone to beat me up, and just now she glared at me. Her eyes looked like she wanted to eat me alive."
She was about to turn around with tears in her eyes.
"Mom, go back!" Zheng Yanjin said coldly.
Gu gritted her teeth and took big steps in anger.
Seeing that person was driven away by anger, Su Yun was impressed.
[My grandma really won’t take any loss, I like her personality. ]
Jingsi squatted down, his eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled.
"Amitabha, little donor, did you remember anything when you came to see me?"
【What?】
Su Yun had a face full of question marks.
Jingsi smiled, feeling lost in her heart.
"Nothing. What is the matter that the little donor is looking for me for?"
"My grandma wants to thank you." Su Yun looked at Li.
Li put the basket on the ground.
"My Lord, Master, please accept this gift. By the way, I have something else to do, so I will come to pick up the child later."
After saying that, he ran away without giving anyone a chance to react.
[Grandma, my grandma, didn’t you say you wanted to thank Lord Zheng and the master? Why did you put me here? ] Su Yun was confused.
Hearing the inner voice, Li ran faster with her small feet.
How can she exchange the banknotes if she doesn't send you away, a smart guy like you?
Besides, where else could there be a safer place than the government office?
If Li had had no excuse to come to the county, she would not have brought Su Yun.
Jingsi picked up the basket and said, "Little donor, please come in."
He did not go in first, but waited until Su Yun entered before following her.
Zheng Yanjin:?
Are you the county magistrate, or am I? Are you visiting your own vegetable garden?
As soon as we sat down, Jingsi's words were meant to drive us away.
"Master Zheng, please go and do your work. I will have a few words with the young donor."
Okay, okay, is there anything I can’t listen to?
Zheng Yanjin didn't say it in the end, he really did have a lot of things to do.
After everyone had left, Jingsi took out the pendant beads and put them around Su Yun's neck.
“It’ll give you direction.”
[What? Why do I feel like I don’t understand?] Su Yun was confused the whole time.
Jingsi smiled and said, "Little donor, do you want to ask what I said last time?"
Su Yun nodded.
Jingsi looked mysterious and at this moment he actually had the aura of a high-level monk.
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. The young donor will get through this disaster safely."
[Okay, since you gave me a gift, I have to give you some advice.]
Su Yun ran to Jingsi and was interrupted by Jingsi just as she was about to speak.
"This poor monk's fate is destined by heaven. This is an indispensable mission."
Jingsi smiled and bowed to Su Yun.
"Amitabha, I will withdraw now."
Su Yun touched the beads hanging around her neck, feeling an indescribable discomfort in her heart.
She didn't understand why either.
[Ding~ Congratulations to the host for changing Chen Xiu's fate and getting a reward. (One-time consumption of props, silently recite the name and location of a man and a woman, and the two will appear at the designated location to meet.)]
001 went offline after distributing the rewards.
It has now completely failed, and the rewards have been delayed for a few days.
Su Yun ignored 001. She knew that it was Bai Qingqing's marriage that changed Chen Xiu's fate.
Bai Qingqing not only cheated on Chen Xiu, but also maliciously went to the study to steal secrets after their marriage, harming the Chen family.
Only when the two of them have no intersection at all can Chen Xiu's fate be truly changed.
