Chapter 263: Trouble with County Magistrate Zhao

But he wasn't stupid either, so he quickly replied: "She's just very beautiful."

If it can be used as a tribute to the emperor, it must be beautiful.

Magistrate Zhao laughed twice and said, "Go back. I'm not here today to arrest people. You don't have to do that."

"Ah? Aren't you going to arrest someone?" Liu Dali was stunned for a moment.

Xing Wu on the side couldn't help but said: "We adults are here to take care of the peacocks, why are we arresting them?"

Liu Dali looked at Si Zhengping in confusion, and saw Si Zhengping nodded at him: "Master Zhao is indeed here to take care of the peacock."

"So you're not arresting someone? That's good, Mr. Zhao, you are such a good official, you are such a good official!" Liu Dali suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"You can go back with peace of mind. I will not arrest people randomly." Magistrate Zhao said with a smile.

Liu Dali then left with peace of mind. When he went out, he did not forget to turn around and say: "Sir, if you want to arrest someone, just remember to arrest me."

Magistrate Zhao was dumbfounded by him and said again: "Don't worry, I won't arrest anyone."

Liu Dali nodded and finally left.

After Liu Dali left, Magistrate Zhao looked at Si Zhengping: "Your village is pretty good."

He had only seen people blaming each other when things happened, but he had never seen people fighting to take the blame. His favorable impression of Dajia Village doubled for a while.

"Your Excellency, this is a joke. The people in the village have not studied much, but they are all simple people." Si Zhengping replied with a smile.

At the same time, I was deeply relieved. After what happened just now, I could at least see that Mr. Zhao would not arrest people at will.

"Simplicity is a rare quality in the world." Magistrate Zhao sighed with emotion.

After chatting with Si Zhengping for a while, I saw the sky getting brighter.

Magistrate Zhao finally couldn't wait any longer: "Can I go see your aunt now?"

Si Zhengping looked at Si Jinbai, who nodded and said, "Okay."

In fact, Si Qing had already had breakfast by now, and had sent Qiongqi to the mountains early, and was waiting in the house for Magistrate Zhao to arrive.

Because he had to receive Magistrate Zhao, Li Daya cleaned the front yard and living room early in the morning.

Magistrate Zhao and others followed Si Zhengping to Si's house, and were taken to the living room by Li Daya.

Not long after, Secretary Qing came.

Today she was still wearing the goose-yellow cotton skirt from yesterday, and her small face looked even smaller against the thick clothes.

Magistrate Zhao saw that Secretary Qing had lost so much weight after not seeing him for a while, and the previous unhappiness in his heart completely disappeared.

I thought to myself that it was no wonder that the village chief was unwilling to wake her up directly. Looking at her appearance, she must have suffered a serious crime before.

"Little girl, I heard that you were ill some time ago, but are you feeling better recently?" Magistrate Zhao couldn't help but express concern.

Si Qing pouted and looked at Magistrate Zhao with dark eyes: "Sir, you all know that I am sick, why don't you come and see me? You don't even know that when I was sick, I wanted to eat at Wufang Zhai in the county town.

I have some pastries, but I can’t even afford them.”

As she spoke, she lowered her little head in grievance and pointed at her fingers.

Si Zhengping on the side felt his heart ache when he heard this. It turned out that his aunt had wanted to eat Wufangzhai’s cakes before, but they didn’t even know it.

My aunt must have been afraid that they would have no money, so she didn't tell them.

It's because they can't help my aunt!

In fact, he didn't know that Si Qing just listened to Magistrate Zhao's words and made nonsense on the spot just to arouse Magistrate Zhao's sympathy and guilt so that he could negotiate terms later.

Sure enough, after hearing her words, County Magistrate Zhao felt a little embarrassed, and at the same time he felt a little sympathetic to her.

For such a smart little girl, not only did she not have the care of her parents when she was sick, she couldn't even afford a piece of cake.

Magistrate Zhao felt uncomfortable thinking about it.
