Chapter 140: Arrival at Guancheng
Zhu Mingqing pursed her lips and smiled awkwardly: "Master Liang, please don't flatter me. Mingqing is just a decent woman and doesn't deserve such praise from you."
Hearing this, Liang He just smiled without saying anything and looked at the other members of the Luo family.
With Madam Zhu around, even if the Luo family is not favored by His Majesty now, I believe it will not stop there in the future.
Liang He’s purpose is simple, which is to make friends with the Luo family.
The Luo family is not stupid. One takes the initiative to make friends, and the other is happy to accept it.
We had a very enjoyable meal.
After eating and drinking, Liang He was bumped into by Qin San on his way back to his room.
He narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Go back and rest early. We'll reach the city gate tomorrow, and this escort will finally be over."
Qin San nodded reluctantly, and when Liang He disappeared, he sighed worriedly.
…
The next day, when the sky was bright, Liang He excitedly called everyone to set off immediately.
The group hurried and finally saw the shadow of the city before sunset.
"Hahaha, great, we've finally reached Guancheng!"
"Damn it, I can finally drink and eat meat and have a good rest for a couple of days!"
"It's not easy, I can actually make it to the city gate alive."
Both the officials and the Luo family members hugged and cheered.
The large group following behind also had happy expressions on their faces.
Although the city was poor, it was finally settled.
Mr. Chen Nong said that they could get seeds for free. As long as they worked hard and reclaimed a few acres of wasteland, they would have no worries about food and drink.
"Let's go, go into the city immediately." Liang He waved his hand and everyone followed immediately.
Everyone lined up in an orderly manner and entered the city one by one.
Qin San looked at Madam Zhu in front of him and felt a headache.
When Zhu Mingqing noticed his gaze, he immediately pretended to be calm and looked around. The little world spirit snorted, "Qingqing, he was just looking at you."
"I know."
But she was in no mood to deal with him now.
What attracts her now is everything in the city.
Although the city gate looks a little dilapidated and short, and the soldiers guarding the city look a little spiritless, this may be where she will live for the rest of her life.
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
Zhu Mingqing felt that this Guancheng was not bad. It was quiet, sparsely populated, and suitable for development.
"Get out of the way!" Suddenly, a shrill roar came from behind, and the people were forced to make way. More than ten carriages drove over quickly, trying to cut in line and enter the city.
The team was lining up at Liang He's place. Seeing this, he quickly moved aside, and the others also made way, so they were not hit by the speeding carriage.
But some people did not react in time and were knocked to the ground.
"Who is this? Too arrogant!"
"get off!"
The soldier guarding the city walked forward with a grim look on his face and knocked on the carriage.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and when Zhu Mingqing saw the people coming down, he was surprised. He didn't expect that this family had also come to Guancheng.
After Wang Yaozhi explained and learned that they were relatives of the newly appointed Pan Pan Wang, the soldiers' attitude improved a lot.
"Let's go. Don't be so reckless next time!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Yaozhi responded with a smile.
When he turned around, he saw Luo Fu beside him, and his face suddenly lit up with joy.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw the attire of the other group and his expression froze.
Wang Leya also lifted the car curtain and saw these people.
A hint of laughter flashed in her eyes, and then she looked at Luo Fu and exclaimed, "Oh, I didn't expect you to be the criminal!"
Her voice was loud, and immediately attracted everyone's attention to Luo Fu.
Being stared at by so many people, with scrutinizing looks on their faces, some even harboring malicious intentions.
Luo Fu took a step back in fear and hid behind Luo Huai.
"Oh my God, isn't your mother also a criminal? Your whole family..." Wang Leya covered her mouth in surprise, then looked at her eldest brother who was devastated and comforted him, "Brother, I always say that you can only judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart. You should just study hard."
She urged again, "Let's go quickly. If we stay with them for too long, we'll all be infected with bad luck."
At the quiet gate of Guancheng City, the only voice that could be heard was the chattering voice of a little girl.
Extremely conspicuous!
"Enough!" A stern voice suddenly came from inside the city gate, "Erya, shut up!"
Wang Leya's face immediately fell when someone called her by her nickname. She was about to retort angrily, but when she saw who was coming, her arrogance dissipated a little: "Humph! Why? The mouth is on my body, I can say whatever I want."
When he saw the person coming, Zhu Mingqing's cold expression turned into surprise.
Could it be that County Magistrate Wang was promoted?
Otherwise, why would Miss Wang come to such a place!
The following conversation also confirmed her guess.
Wang Lexuan quickly stepped forward and pulled Zhu Mingqing off the carriage without even having time to greet him. "Go and apologize!"
When Xiao Wang saw her daughter being treated like this, she said, "Xuan Jie'er, what are you doing? You're bullying my Le Ya again. Let go!"
She got out of the car and hid her daughter behind her. She glanced at Zhu Mingqing discreetly and said, "What my Le Ya said was not wrong. Why should she apologize? Aren't they criminals?"
"Second Aunt!" Wang Lexuan said in an anxious tone. Erya's words were too careless and she offended people in public. Isn't this definitely making an enemy?
Second Aunt's family didn't know about it, but she knew that her father's promotion was really thanks to Madam Zhu.
"Alright, little girl, what do you know? We should stay away from people like this." Little Wang said disdainfully, "Hurry up and lead the way. We are almost exhausted from the journey. Let's go home and rest early."
As she passed by her son, she tugged at his sleeve and said, "What are you standing there for? Get in the carriage!"
Wang Yaozhi sighed in frustration, glanced at Luo Fu reluctantly, and got into the car with regret.
Wang Ershun and his family were about to cut in line to enter the city, but right in front of them on the left was the Luo family. They had just been ridiculed by them, so how could they possibly give way to them?!
"Get out of the way, we're going into the city!"
"Hey, you little girl, you think you're cutting in line?"
One official directly retorted. Wang Leya shrank her neck, not daring to speak. Seeing Wang Lexuan remaining silent, she became furious: "Cousin Xuan, my uncle asked you to pick us up, and this is how you pick us up? I'll tell my uncle when I get home, and have him fine you a lot!"
"Shut up!" Wang Lexuan was so angry that her face turned red.
I know my second uncle’s family is difficult to deal with, but we didn’t live together before, so I could just endure it. Now that they are all in Guancheng, I get a headache thinking about the past!
She looked towards the city and wondered why her brother hadn't come yet.
Forget it, the important thing is to apologize to Sister Zhu first.
Wang Lexuan walked up to Zhu Mingqing, ashamed. "Sister Zhu, I apologize to you on behalf of my second uncle's family. It was my cousin who spoke rudely first. I will report to father and give you an explanation."
