A donkey was ridden away by Lin Xiaoman. There was only one left in the family, so they simply hitched a donkey cart and the two of them rode.

We discussed on the way that when we arrived at the county town, we would first go to the county government office with Xu Qiuliang to see Lu Jin, and then go to Lin Xiaoman.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the county government office, they heard that Lin Xiaoman was here. The teacher and student looked at each other and saw the burning fire of gossip in each other's eyes.

Since Lin Xiaoman was here and Lu Jin was fine, the two left without being informed.

On the way, Xu Qiuliang said: "Erhu, you are going to be the county magistrate's brother-in-law."

Lin Erhu thought for a while and said: "Let's talk about it, my sister doesn't want to be a concubine."

"Have ambition!" Xu Qiuliang nodded, and couldn't help but say a few good words for Lu Jin, "Don't look at his usually acrimonious appearance, but his character is still trustworthy. I have been with him in the capital for many years, and I have never heard of him.

He got married."

"Really?" Lin Erhu's eyes sparkled, "Sir, please tell me about your time in the capital. I am just a sister, and I don't want her to be deceived by a scumbag."

"Scumbag?" Xu Qiuliang had never heard this word before, but he immediately understood its meaning and said with a smile: "It's hard to say more about him. I can only assure you that he is not a bad person.

If Xiao Man marries him, even if he is from the wrong family or from the wrong household, if he wants to protect you, he can still protect you, your sister and your brother."

Lin Erhu was not worried about this. It was written in the book that Lu Jin married his wife, the Lin family, and was the magistrate of Qingping County for decades. Even if the Lu family in the capital did not want to recognize the wife he married, they would be beyond his reach.

What he cares about is whether Lu Jin has wives or concubines.

"Then do you have concubines? I heard from people that young men from wealthy families will have concubines before they get married. My sister grew up in the country, but she can't compete with those women."

"No, his biological mother... died in a fight for favor. Since he was a child, he has been extremely disgusted with women's methods of fighting for favor. He once said that he would kill anyone who dared to put people in his house."

"Kill...kill? Really kill?" Lin Erhu was frightened by his words of killing one by one, and did not notice the pause in Xu Qiuliang's words.

Xu Qiuliang nodded, "Of course it's a real killing? There were people in the capital who didn't believe it. Two years ago, he sent a woman to his house. Unexpectedly, she was struck by his sword before she even touched him. If the woman hadn't been able to hide quickly, she wouldn't have been killed.

It’s not just a bit of skin on your neck that’s injured.”

After saying this, Xu Qiuliang couldn't help but shudder, "Later, the family who sent their daughter to please him was also convicted of this matter, and the whole family was driven out of the capital."

Lin Erhu fell silent. Just when Xu Qiuliang wanted to praise Lu Jin for keeping himself clean, Lin Erhu ran towards the county government again.

Xu Qiuliang was stunned for a while before shouting: "Weizhen, what are you going to do?"

Lin Erhu waved to him. Of course he couldn't say that he wanted to stop his sister and Lu Jin from getting too close on the street.

This power makes him afraid of killing people who dare to kill people, and driving out those who offend him from the capital city.

Even though they are very affectionate at this moment, if Lu Jin doesn't treat his sister the same way as before, will his sister lose her life just because of a word?

No matter what it says in the book, he just wants his sister to be safe and sound. What about Mrs. Lu, whoever wants to be treated as such!

Xu Qiuliang had no idea that his few words of showing off were intended to express Lu Jin's ability and lack of sexual desire, but unexpectedly it backfired, making Lin Erhu determined to boycott the marriage.

Someone in the Yamen recognized Lin Erhu and saw him running in to greet him. Lin Erhu stopped the person and asked, "Have you seen my sister?"

The official who was pulled pointed in the direction of the kitchen and said: "Today is the beginning of autumn. The county government is making dumplings for eating. I just came from the kitchen and Miss Xiaoman is cooking."

Lin Erhu thanked him and ran towards the kitchen. Sure enough, he smelled a familiar fragrance soon.

Well, it tastes like braised pork and stewed potatoes.

When I followed the smell and found it, Lin Xiaoman was busy in front of the stove. The chef was listening carefully to her explanation of how to make this dish and how to make similar dishes.

The stove and chopping board next to it are covered with dumplings.

Lin Erhu stood in front of the door and shouted: "Sister!"

Lin Xiaoman came over after hearing the news and saw Lin Erhu coming out with a smile, "Why are you here?"

Lin Erhu pouted, pulled Lin Xiaoman to a deserted corner, and whispered: "Sister, you don't really want to stay in the county government and be the county magistrate's wife, do you?"

Lin Xiao blushed, "What are you talking about? The county magistrate was injured a few days ago. Brother Qingshu is busy with other things, so he doesn't feel comfortable letting others take care of him, so he just asked me to stay for a few days."

Lin Erhu was half relieved, but seeing Lin Xiaoman's face as red as if it was bleeding, he asked tentatively: "Sister, do you really not want to be Mrs. Lu?"

Lin Xiaoman was speechless for a moment. She really didn't want to do it in the past, but after getting along with Lu Jin for a long time, her good feelings were growing day by day, and she didn't want to say that she really had no idea against her will.

But her silence made Lin Erhu understand everything. He raised his hand to touch his forehead and said, "Look, look, sister, you are upset."

"What's this mess?" Lin Xiaoman poked Lin Erhu on the shoulder angrily, causing Lin Erhu to take two steps back, covering his shoulders and complaining, "Sister, am I not your favorite Erhu anymore? You

You poke me for a man?"

"If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not, I'm going to slap you?" After saying that, he raised his hand as if to slap you.

"If you can't talk, just do it, sister, you don't have martial ethics!"

Lin Erhu screamed and ran away. Lin Xiaoman looked at his back and shook his head helplessly: What did this kid learn online every day?

But, Mrs. Lu? You can consider it.

Qingshu came back in a hurry and almost bumped into Lin Erhu who ran out. He stretched out his hand to help Lin Erhu to avoid knocking the boy away.

"Why are you running? Is there a tiger chasing you?"

Lin Erhu nodded vigorously, "Isn't there just a tiger? Brother Qingshu, I have asked you to take more care of my sister in the county government these days. I have tried it in the hospital and I don't dare to stay longer."

After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

Qingshu smiled and whispered: "Why do you need me to take care of you?"

Thinking of coming back to report something, he hurried towards the courtyard where Lu Jin lived.

Lu Jin's injuries have mostly healed, but in order to confuse those people hiding in the dark, he just stays in the yard every day.

Except for Qingshu, Lin Xiaoman and a few trusted subordinates, no one else was allowed to come near him. They only told the outside world that he was infected with the disease, and all official duties and cases were left to the master. Lu Jin ate and drank in the small courtyard where he lived every day.

Take care of your injuries.

As soon as Qingshu came in, he said: "Master, your complexion has improved a lot. Miss Xiaoman's cooking skills are really good. You look like your master has become mellow."

Does this mean he has gained weight? Lu Jin rolled his eyes at him angrily, and Qingshu hurriedly tried to make up for it, "It may not mean he is plump, but he may have gained weight."
