"That's why I said I would give you a new identity." Qiu Yinong spoke calmly again.
Without waiting for Miss Ma to speak, Qiu Yinong called the head of the Lin family in.
The head of the Lin family was a little confused at first, but after knowing the situation, he looked at Miss Ma and finally gritted his teeth and agreed.
"Okay, I'll tell everyone she's my daughter, the one I raised on the farm."
Qiu Yinong smiled and shook her head: "It's enough if you all agree."
After a snap of the fingers, everyone in the city forgot Miss Ma's former identity and only remembered that she was a daughter of the Lin family.
Moreover, her broken body was restored by Qiu Yinong with her life force.
Since we have given them a new life, we must help them to the end.
Otherwise, it would be discovered by her husband's family in the future, which would not bring good reputation to her and the Lin family.
Qiu Yinong brought the head of the Lin family and the other two back to the lobby, and Ge Qingqing looked at them curiously.
But seeing that the head of the Lin family called Miss Ma his daughter, Ge Qingqing was very confused. How could these two people become father and daughter?
Seeing that the onlookers didn't seem surprised at all, she became even more curious.
"Everyone, go away!" Jing Xu got his sister's look and waved to the onlookers.
The people then bowed respectfully and dispersed.
After everyone left, the head of the Lin family also bowed to Qiu Yinong and others and said goodbye.
"Thank you, Patriarch Lin, for your cooperation. I will inform the Emperor of the truth and will credit this achievement to the Lin family."
Jing Xu also said to Patriarch Lin with a smile, and Patriarch Lin thanked him with a delighted look on his face.
"Hongying, come back with your father!" The head of the Lin family looked at Lin Hongying. Lin Hongying was a little dazed and stared at Jingxu for a long time. When she heard her father calling her, she finally reacted.
"Yes." Lin Hongying responded, then bowed to Jingxu and others.
Before leaving, she looked at Qiu Yinong again. She always felt that this county lady seemed to be of great help to her, but she had no memory of what it was.
Lin Hongying couldn't figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it.
Following his father to the Lin family, after the others left, Ge Qingqing couldn't help but step forward and ask, "What on earth is going on?"
"Why does everyone seem to have forgotten that Miss Ma is the daughter of Magistrate Ma?"
Qiu Qinghe smiled, glanced at Qiu Yinong, pulled her to the side and whispered a few words.
When Ge Qingqing came back, she was in a daze.
"I, I actually became friends with a fairy!"
Qiu Yinong smiled helplessly: "I'm not some fairy."
"No, the fact that an immortal can accept you as his disciple and teach you such a unique technique makes him a fairy to me."
"I must stay by your side. Maybe I will be infected with the fairy spirit and become different in the future."
Ge Qingqing said complacently, and Qiu Yinong smiled gently.
Then he looked at Ning An and asked, "When are you leaving?"
"Let's do it tomorrow. We originally planned to stay a few more days, but I think what happened here will be discovered soon. The sooner we leave, the less trouble we'll have."
Qiu Yinong nodded in agreement and gave her a sachet: "If you encounter danger later, open it. There is something inside that can save your life."
"Then I won't be polite." Ning An put it away with a smile.
The Qingzhu couple were dragged away from here. That afternoon, Magistrate Ge and Mu Zi arrived almost at the same time.
Chengnan Prefecture will be handed over to Prefect Ge for handling, and the silver that was previously defrauded will be returned to each family after verification.
Qiu Yinong and his group also prepared to continue heading towards the border the next day.
Although Ruyuan was reluctant to see Qiu Yinong and the others leave, she also understood that they could not stay in Chengnan Mansion forever.
Knowing that they were leaving, she said nothing, but just arranged a lively banquet.
The head of the Lin family was also invited.
As Mr. Lu drank, he asked curiously, "Old Lin, thank you so much for this time."
"Where do you come from?" Patriarch Lin looked at Master Lu in confusion.
Mr. Lu said, "Always, our two families have been considered old friends, but we are also real competitors."
"I'm truly impressed by your warning to my son, regardless of the danger. Thank you very much."
"I'll toast you."
The head of the Lin family laughed and said, "Hey, I thought it was something serious. Your Lu Ziyi is indeed a good person, brave and resourceful."
"I'm also petty. Seeing that you retired early and my son couldn't stand on his own, I was furious."
"That's why we've reduced our interactions. To be honest, you and I grew up together, and we once had a life-or-death bond."
"I had my plan in mind at the beginning. Now that the young man is on his own, I'll help him if I can."
"Your Lu Ziyi is a righteous man. When my good-for-nothing son takes over the Lin family, if he encounters difficulties in the future, he might help my boy."
"That's as it should be, haha. No problem, no problem."
Mr. Lu was not angry after hearing this, but laughed: "Come on, brother, let me toast you another glass."
"Governor Ge, you're welcome." He said this without forgetting to greet Governor Ge.
Prefect Ge smiled and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome. I'm sorry to bother you at the Lu family these days."
"Master Lu, I'd like to offer you a toast as well. Thank you for your care."
"Master Ge, you are so polite. If we hadn't met the county lady and the others, the twins in my daughter-in-law's belly would have been in danger long ago."
"Then there's no need to be polite. Since this is the Lu family's family dinner, let's be more relaxed. What do you think?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Master Lu and the head of the Lin family laughed at the same time.
Ruyuan acted like a real sister, reminding Qiu Yinong and others to be careful and take good care of themselves when they went out.
Qiu Yinong knew that she was concerned about her, so she smiled gently and kept responding.
Seeing this, Ruyuan didn't know what to say.
Keep picking up food for them.
As the banquet was about to end, the steward came running to report: "Princess Changping, there is a young lady outside who wants to see you."
"Bring her over here." Qiu Yinong probably knew who it was.
"Yes." Butler Lu turned around to lead his people, and Ruyuan led them to the side hall next door.
Not long after, Mu Zi was brought over.
She followed Butler Lu and kept observing him secretly.
He is truly worthy of being the richest man in Chengnan Prefecture. It is magnificent and even more luxurious than the Lin family's garden.
She finally returned to Chengnan Mansion today and thought that her good days were about to come.
As a result, when they went to Linyuan Garden, they were told that the previous county lady was a fake and had been arrested.
When the Lin family servant saw that she was looking for the county lady, he immediately became alert: "Are you someone close to the fake county lady?"
"How is that possible? I am from Chengnan Prefecture. If you don't believe me, listen to my accent." Mu Zi was startled and quickly spoke in her hometown dialect.
The servant nodded and said, "Prince Jing has already sentenced Magistrate Ma, and the two counterfeiters have also been arrested."
"These two people have swindled a lot of money and property. Now the prefect of Linjiang Prefecture has temporarily replaced Prefect Ma and needs to thoroughly investigate this matter."
"To avoid getting into trouble, go back early!"
Mu Zi was shocked because she had indeed received a lot of things from the fake county lady.
