Jiang Si leaned slightly to return the greeting: "Your Excellency is too polite. I happened to be involved in a murder case at the right time. It is only right that I try my best to get to the bottom of the matter."

"In any case, it is thanks to you that we were able to find the key evidence to identify Xuanci." The county lieutenant said with a smile, "It is already very late, you three should go to bed early. I will bring the murderer back to the government office tomorrow and I would like to invite you three to a banquet at a restaurant in Fuxing County. Do you have time?"

Yu Jin looked at Jiang Si.

Jiang seemed to shake his head imperceptibly.

"Don't bother me, sir. We have other things to do and will leave here tomorrow."

"In that case, I wish you three safe journey." The county lieutenant seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't say much.

As soon as the county lieutenant left, Jiang Zhan couldn't wait to ask, "Fourth sister, what did you do to help the county lieutenant?"

"Buddhist beads." Jiang Si uttered these two words, and seeing that Jiang Zhan was still puzzled, he explained, "Xuan Ci's Buddhist beads smell of blood."

"So that's how it is." Jiang Zhan suddenly realized, and then narrowed his beautiful eyes, "Fourth sister, what kind of nose is this? Why do I feel it's smarter than Erniu's——"

Yu Jin put one hand on Jiang Zhan's shoulder and smiled at Jiang Si: "It's late, go to bed early, don't get up too early tomorrow, we'll go to rest too."

Jiang Si nodded and walked towards the guest room.

Jiang Zhan realized what was going on after he entered the house: What was that tone of Yu Qi Ge? How come they seemed so close, and he, as the older brother, became an outsider?

This discovery made Mr. Jiang unable to sleep immediately.

There is a problem, there must be a problem!

Jiang Zhan tossed and turned on the bed like a pancake. After an indeterminate amount of time, he suddenly jumped up and ran over to Jiang Zhan's side.

There was a quick knock on the door, and it creaked open.

"What's the matter?" Yu Jin stood at the door, wearing only an outer coat, with the collar of his snow-white undershirt open, revealing his collarbone clearly.

He had obviously washed up in a hurry, and his exposed skin was still damp. His voice was a little deeper than usual because he slept too late.

Jiang Zhan looked up at the sky.

Ahem, it's really inappropriate for a man to behave like this!

"It's okay, I'll close the door." Yu Jian was indeed sleepy and said impatiently.

"If you have anything to say, come inside and talk about it." Jiang Zhan held the door and went in.

Yu Jin frowned, closed the door, walked back and sat down, waiting for Jiang Zhan to speak.

Jiang Zhan rested his hands on the table: "Brother Yu Qi, I think something is wrong with you!"

"Um?"

"You spoke to my fourth sister in a very intimate tone."

"Really?" Yu Jin was secretly surprised at how Jiang Zhan suddenly came to his senses, and put on an innocent expression.

"Of course there is!" Jiang Zhan suddenly leaned forward, not missing any change in the other person's expression. He stared at him for a long time but couldn't figure out what was going on.

Could it be that he was overthinking?

No, the more likely possibility is that the other party is too thick-skinned and is good at covering it up!

"Brother Yu Qi, do you have any feelings for my fourth sister?"

Yu Jin's expression almost changed.

How come Jiang Zhan suddenly hit the nail on the head?

After a quick thought, he nodded and said simply: "Yes."

Seize the opportunity and fight for everything you can, and victory will be just around the corner.

Jiang Zhan couldn't believe what he heard, and pointed at Yu Jin: "You, say it again!"

Yu Jin chuckled: "A gentleman dreams of marrying a beautiful lady. Your sister is intelligent, kind, elegant, and beautiful..."

Jiang Zhan nodded repeatedly after hearing the long string of descriptions.

I didn't expect Brother Yu Qi to be so accurate in judging people...

"Second brother Jiang, is it abnormal for me to admire a girl like this?"

"That's normal." Jiang Zhan blurted out.

Who is he? What did he say?

Wait, he feels a little dizzy, as if he is trapped!

Yu Jin showed a relieved smile and patted Jiang Zhan's shoulder heavily: "I knew that Jiang Erdi would understand and support me!"

"I--" Jiang Zhan opened his mouth and suddenly slammed the table, "No, it's not right. It's human nature for you to have such thoughts. After all, my fourth sister is really good, but there is no parental permission and no matchmaker's words. You are being irresponsible to my fourth sister!"

"So, Brother Jiang is worried about these things. Don't worry, I can tell my family and ask them to propose marriage."

"Wait a minute." Jiang Zhan shouted and rubbed his temples, "I don't want your family to send a matchmaker to your house--"

"What does Jiang Erdi mean?"

"Anyway, it's wrong for you to try to get close to my fourth sister now!"

Yu Jian sighed heavily: "Second brother Jiang doesn't allow me to invite a matchmaker to come to my house, and he is not happy with my showing affection to your sister. What should I do?"

Jiang Zhan opened his mouth.

Why does he seem to be the one who is making trouble for no reason?

"Brother Jiang, think about it, your sister will get married eventually, right? Do you think you can trust her to marry a stranger whose appearance, character, and abilities you don't know? Just because of the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words?"

"Of course not."

"That's it. I'm going to show my affection to your sister now. If she's interested in me, I'll immediately ask a matchmaker to come to my house. If she's not interested in me..." As soon as this thought came to her mind, Yu Jin felt as if a knife had been stabbed in the heart, but she remained calm and said, "Then I'll naturally know what's good for you and won't bother you any more. I've always felt that it's unfair to women to not care about what they think and just arrange a marriage after both parents have negotiated. After all, if a man doesn't marry a wife that suits him, he can still take concubines or even go to brothels. If a woman marries a husband who doesn't suit her, her life will be ruined."

Jiang Zhan touched his chin unconsciously.

That seems to make sense.

"Besides, Jiang Erdi and I are also familiar with each other. If there is anything wrong with me, you can see it clearly. With you as a brother, you will never let your sister suffer."

"That's true." After hearing what Yu Jian said, Jiang Zhan suddenly felt that the person in front of him was indeed a very suitable candidate.

It was just a momentary change of mindset, and he immediately began to calculate the pros and cons of Yu Jin as a brother-in-law.

In terms of fighting power, Yu Qi Ge is unbeatable and can definitely protect the fourth sister. However, he also has a shortcoming, that is, his fighting power is too high and he cannot defeat the opponent. If he bullies the fourth sister in the future, he will have to ask for help.

In terms of appearance, Yu Qi Ge and Si Mei are on par with each other, and the baby they will have in the future will surely be even better - bah, what was he thinking!

Well, the disadvantages are also obvious. Brother Yu Qi is so good-looking that he can easily attract many men.

In terms of character, Brother Yu Qi saved his life. Anyone who would lend a helping hand in such a situation cannot be considered a bad person.

Disadvantages - this time Jiang Zhan thought about it carefully.

She was so shameless that she actually developed feelings for the fourth sister without saying a word. Fortunately, he had a keen eye and discovered it.

On Family Background

Jiang Zhan suddenly looked at Yu Jin.

They have known each other for so long, but he has never asked what Yu Qige's family does!

The Second Young Master Jiang had a wide circle of friends, and he only cared about whether someone had the same temper as him or not, and never paid attention to the other person's background. However, from the perspective of the eldest brother-in-law, he suddenly felt worried.

Family background is also important.

"I wonder what's going on at Brother Yuqi's home?"

The corners of Yu Jin's lips curled up slightly.

My brother-in-law got into the mood pretty quickly.
