Wangcai cleverly took it, and Han Luoyu patted its head:
"Keep a close eye on them."
Wangcai wagged its tail and lay down in front of Magistrate Zhu and his men.
Magistrate Zhu and his yamen runners were dumbfounded. It was fine that the chicken leg smelled delicious, but the key issue was that this guy was watching them. How could they possibly make a move?
Nobody knows they've been captured now. How can they get out if they don't save themselves?
Several people were on the verge of tears.
The bailiff looked cautiously at Magistrate Zhu and asked tremblingly:
"Sir, shall we continue solving this?"
"Jie, be careful."
It's just a dog, isn't it? Can it be the same as a person?
The constables were terrified, their hands and feet trembling. But since the magistrate had given the order, they dared not disobey and could only continue their work, trembling.
At first they were cautious, but after they realized that the dog ignored them, they became bolder.
Han Luoxue's cooking is really delicious, it smells so good. They've had chicken legs before, but none of them are as good as Han Luoxue's.
Putting aside everything else, this woman's cooking skills are truly beyond words.
If we end up in their hands, it wouldn't be bad to have her cook something for us.
As the group made their own plans, Magistrate Zhu looked at the large black dog lying to one side, his eyes dark and unfathomable.
Han Mingyuan had been here several times, but he had never seen the black dog before.
This isn't an ordinary black dog; it even bears a resemblance to a wolf. Could it be the offspring of a black dog and a wolf?
I've heard that those wolfhounds are extremely ferocious. Could this be one?
He wants this dog; it's nice.
As for Han Luoxue, she must have a secret. This woman is what the Crown Prince wants, but he doesn't mind keeping that secret before giving her to the Crown Prince!
So much grain and seedlings—if they became his own, then he…
Thinking of this, Magistrate Zhu's heart burned even hotter, and his eyes shone brightly as he looked at the big black dog.
The gaze he gave made even the constable who had been watching him tremble.
What's wrong with those adults? They look at a dog like that, what about their own people?
Why am I suddenly feeling a little scared?
"grown ups?"
The bailiff shouted, trembling. Magistrate Zhu then came to his senses and chuckled:
What do you think of this dog?
This dog?
As expected, the adults have taken a liking to this dog.
The bailiff felt a chill run down his spine at the magistrate's lecherous gaze.
The constable never expected that Lord Zhu would ask about the dog. The dog? He hadn't seen a dog in so long.
In this day and age, nobody even raises pigs, let alone dogs.
However, when asked, he still took a look and saw that the dog was plump and strong, and looked quite meaty.
"Sir, there's quite a bit of dog meat in this; it should be delicious, right?"
The constable thought for a moment and then said very seriously.
Magistrate Zhu was taken aback. Delicious? The meat is quite good?
When he turned to look at the constable, his gaze held a hint of disdain: "All you know is how to eat! Look at this dog, doesn't it look like a wolf?"
Humans have an instinctive fear of wolves. The man flinched in fright, and when he looked at the big black dog again, his eyes showed even more fear: "Now that you mention it, sir, I really do feel that it looks a bit like a wolf. Isn't this the big black dog?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the offspring of a black dog and a wolf. Don't be fooled by his current docile appearance; he is extremely ferocious. If I could have such a wolfhound, in the future..."
Before Magistrate Zhu could finish speaking, his gaze toward the big black dog became even more intense.
"I want this dog."
"What's wrong with you two? Haven't you untied it yet?"
"You guys are usually so quick-witted, why are you so useless now?"
The two constables who were called out by the magistrate were speechless. Can you use your mouth to talk and untie ropes in the same way? The constable who was untying the ropes was already sweating profusely.
The big black dog was still lying there gnawing on the bone, seemingly oblivious to the group's actions.
...
"I don't know which damned bastard dared to attack our farm..."
Grandma Han walked in, cursing and swearing, her face still showing resentment. However, when she saw Han Luoxue and the others, her expression immediately changed: "Xue girl, although the fire at the farm has been put out, I don't think that person will give up. Why don't your grandfather and I go and stay there to keep an eye on things for you?"
"You said it yourself, they might not let it go so easily. Aren't you afraid they'll come back and set fires again in the middle of the night?"
Han Luoxue was somewhat surprised by Grandma Han's suggestion.
The farm is not close to the village, nor is it far from the town. The surrounding area is practically deserted, so if something happens, even if you shout yourself hoarse, no one might know.
Although Old Mrs. Han has been trying to please them lately, based on Han Luoxue's understanding of her, the old lady shouldn't be so selfless.
The danger lies in her avoiding it rather than actively going towards it.
"We will be more careful."
Grandma Han said indifferently.
"No need for now. Even if they wanted to set fire there, they couldn't burn much. After a few days, I'll clean up the farm, bring some piglets over to raise, and hire some people. Once we have people there, everything will be fine."
Han Luoxue was also surprised that the little wolf dog couldn't smell the murderer; these little puppies were really too useless.
If the young puppies heard this, they would protest their innocence, because there were too many people around at the time.
They would have been able to find the culprit before everyone put out the fire.
"It's good that you know what's going on, Xue girl. Don't hesitate to ask us for anything you need."
Looking at the somewhat obsequious smile on Old Mrs. Han's face, Han Luoxue still felt a little awkward. Could someone really change for the better so quickly and completely? Old Mrs. Han now was completely different from before. It was as if they had suddenly become sensible and had become an extremely kind grandmother to her.
Han Luoxue knew they were only with her because she was useful. Oh well, after all, they were her father's and mother's parents. As long as they didn't cause trouble, she could let them live a good old age.
However, the whole family came out, and no one knows how the three children are doing.
"Little Xue, there's less meat and fewer steamed buns in our house."
Yunniang suddenly rushed over in a panic. At first, Han Luoyu didn't notice anything amiss, but she did. She checked it out herself.
"What did you say?"
They made a lot of meat and steamed buns. Han Luoxue originally wanted to put some of them in her spatial storage.
With the old general and her grandfather now in the house, plus Magistrate Zhu in the basement, it wasn't convenient for her to put things away. But who would have thought that in the time it took to put out a fire, the meat and noodles would be gone?
It's impossible not to have doubts.
Han Luoxue rushed over to check, while Han Yuchen called out from behind, "Xue'er, don't rush, watch your step."
"Heh, now I know why those wolfhounds couldn't find the murderer."
