Chapter 1389 Giving Gifts
Master Su said hurriedly: "I am short-sighted. Please forgive , sir. I will add those things to the account book right now."
After speaking, he imdiately took out three pieces of paper, started writing, and added everything written on the paper to the governnt's account book.
After seeing this, Magistrate Xi was satisfied and said: "Until the war in the northwest is over, we all have to stay calm and don't make any crooked ideas."
There are copper mines in Tong'an Prefecture. They have already made a lot of money from the copper mines. They are not short of these three lons and two dates, so seeking stability is the best policy.
Yes, I understand. Master Su responded.
Magistrate Xi sighed again: "Fortunately, we were always on guard against Jia Mingfeng, otherwise he would have exposed us this ti and dragged us to death together."
Master Su nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and then asked: "Sir, does Gu Jinan want soone to trick him?"
Magistrate Xi was silent for a mont, then shook his head: "No need, last night I hosted a banquet for them, and Gu Jinan handled it perfectly, pretending that he didn't know Ming Shaoqing."
"She's not even a womanizer, she's already in her twenties, but she doesn't even look at Qing'er. She got entangled by Qing'er, so she pushed her into the arms of Dou Shaodong's house. It's easy for Dou."
The person nad Dou was so happy that he put Qing'er to sleep last night.
But just after going to bed, he asked the shadow guard of the Dou family to give Qing'er so Bizi soup. When he got up this morning, he drank it again, making it clear that he would not take Qing'er away.
Qing'er has been pampered by the Xi family for ten years, and she is still innocent. She was just sent to soone who could use her as a concubine to help the Xi family. Now she has no chance.
Magistrate Xis body aches just thinking about it, what a waste of one of his chess pieces.
Master Su was a little surprised when he heard this. Does Gu Jinan not even like Qing'er?
He has seen Qing'er before. She looks like one of the best in a hundred. She looks very greedy. Gu Jinan's vision is too high.
Maybe I dont like Qinger who is so delicate, why not give Kouer as a gift? That girl is pretty. Master Su suggested.
Magistrate Xi shook his head: "Forget it, don't worry about it yet. Ming Shaoqing is a living king of hell. If he knew that we are desperately interested in the young man who has fallen in love with him, he will definitely guess that we want to find out about him through Gu Jinan. By then Once we get angry, were dood.
"Then let him go like this? Isn't it too easy for him?" Master Su felt very regretful when he heard this.
"What else can we do?" Magistrate Xi was also angry, but thinking about the Jia family's affairs, he had made a contribution, so he put aside his dissatisfaction and continued to work on the Jia family's affairs.
The affairs of the Jia family beca more and more complicated. After Jia Tongpuan was arrested, many people ca to the governnt office to sue Jia Tongpuan, which made Magistrate Xi very busy.
However, these cases have nothing to do with the Gu family. Gu Jinan and the others only stayed for three days before setting off back to He'an Mansion.
In the past three days, Gu Jinan and Dou Shaodong's family wasted no ti, letting the storytellers bring Brother Cheng and Hu Dawen to court, and in one fell swoop, they brought down the matter of Jia Tongpan and Shopkeeper Feng.
People in Tong'an Mansion listened with great interest. Now they are saying that Erlang of the Gu family is the reincarnation of a judge, who can punish evil and eradicate evil at a young age. Brother Cheng's reputation has beco more powerful, and he has beco a person who makes people laugh when he hears it. A master who dare not bully at will.
Because of Cheng Ge'er's good looks, he is very popular with aunts, aunts and grandmothers.
So won and n wanted their children and grandchildren to be as smart as Brother Cheng. When Brother Cheng and others were about to go ho from the governnt office, they ca with their children and grandchildren, hoping that Brother Cheng would touch their children and grandchildren. So luck.
Hey, the little fairy is out!
"Little fairy, co and touch my grandson's head!" "Help my son, too!" the woman shouted happily.
After hearing this, Brother Cheng turned to look at the won and saw that they all had children of several years or several months old, looking at him like hungry wolves, with the corners of their mouths twitching.
The ladies in Tong'an Mansion are just like the ones in He'an Mansion, they are so excited when it cos to touching their heads, but my head is not allowed to be touched!
When those won saw Brother Cheng looking this way, they were so excited that they shouted: "Hey, the little fairy looked over at my house. My family has received blessings. My family has received blessings!"
The other won were fine after hearing this, and shouted at Brother Cheng: "Little fairy, look at my house, look at my house!"
Magistrate Xis face turned green when he heard this. What are you shouting for? If Gu Jincheng were a god, could his family have been so miserable before?
I dont know who spread this rumor. Nowadays, many won regard Gu Jincheng as a god. They are really ignorant.
Magistrate Xi glanced at Shi Bantou, who imdiately led people to drive away the won.
The gate of the governnt office is an important place, and the idle people should leave quickly. If you dare to shout again, I will take you to jail and lock you up!
The won were still very afraid of the word "big prison", and they were chased by the governnt officials, so they had to leave reluctantly.
When Brother Cheng saw them leaving, he waved to them, which excited these old won: "Hey, the little fairy waved to us. This is giving us blessings. The little fairy is so good!"
Magistrate Xi's brows were about to knit when he heard this. He glared at Bantou Shi. How could he be so slow to drive a group of won away?
Bantou Shi also wanted his son to work in the governnt office, but he didn't dare to neglect it. He hurriedly said to the won: "What are you shouting? I really want to go to jail, so get out of here!"
He took the governnt servants and drove the won away like chickens.
Dou Shaodong's family laughed, yes, yes, the storytellers are really good at getting things done. By the ti they return to He'an Mansion, Gu Jincheng's reputation must have spread throughout the counties. In the future, Gu Jinan can feel more at ease when traveling far away.
"Master Xi, I have thanked you for your hard work on this case. Please bow to ." Tang Tongpan said and saluted Magistrate Xi.
Brothers Fang County Cheng and Gu Jinan, including Dou Shaodong's family, also returned the gift.
Magistrate Xi smiled with satisfaction and said, "Thank you for your hard work when you ca across the prefecture. I've asked soone to prepare sothing for you. You can take it with you to eat on the way."
Magistrate Xi failed to bribe Gu Jinan with beauty, and was afraid of Ming Shaoqing's ruthlessness, so he did not dare to go too far, so he prepared so gifts for Tang Tongpan to bring with him, which was considered a good relationship.
Tang Tongpan smiled and said: "Then I will thank Lord Xi."
But when the steward of Magistrate Xis family showed up with nine carriages, Tang Tong was shocked: Sir, is this too much?
This is too generous. The gift of nine carriages is really real. How can he accept it?
Magistrate Xi said: "Not many, you, Magistrate Gu, Su Tongzhi, General Guo, Mr. Ouyang, Magistrate Zheng, Magistrate Fang, Dou Shaodong's family and Gu Xiucai's family, one car per family."
He added: "My Xi family still has so wealth, and these are either valuable things or specialties of Tong'an Mansion. The New Year is coming soon, so I think they are New Year's gifts for you, so feel free to accept them."
