Chapter 274 It's Not Your Turn to Intercede for Her
"General Lin, why are you here?"
At this moment, Qi Chongjin came over, and Lin Qingchuan's face lost all color, and he only said: "I was just about to leave when I happened to meet Mrs. Lin, so I'll have a chat with her here."
"I see." Qi Chongjin nodded and walked over, "Mrs. Lin, I have kept you waiting for a long time. I have been too busy recently."
"It's okay, I just came here today to ask Butler Nie for help with a small matter, but I didn't expect Uncle Liu to call you over."
Ye Chuqiu said with a smile, his smile as bright as a summer flower. Lin Qingchuan picked up the teacup, pretended to taste the wine in the cup, and tilted his head to the side.
"What do you want from Butler Nie?" Qi Chongjin asked.
"It's not a big deal, I just need a little help from Butler Nie on some business matters."
Ye Chuqiu said something. When Qi Chongjin saw that she didn't say anything clearly, he knew that she must be hindered by Lin Qingchuan's presence, and he sighed slightly in his heart. During this time, he got along with Lin Qingchuan more and found that he was actually a very good person, better than Lin Qingchuan.
The warlords he had come into contact with before were much easier to get along with.
He was a man of great loyalty, and he was not as greedy for merit and benefits as other people in the army. He really admired him and couldn't help but said: "Mrs. Lin, in fact, General Lin is a very good person. Between you two
Maybe there is a misunderstanding, but actually you can..."
"Cough cough cough."
Hearing his words, Ye Chuqiu coughed crazily and interrupted him. Qi Chongjin sighed and said, "Since you don't let me say it, that's it. I also want to resolve the grudge between you. I
I think General Lin is not a small-minded person."
"My Lord Qi, can you please stop talking nonsense? What kind of grudge can there be between me and General Lin? He is such a hero in protecting his family and country, and I am just a civilian living under their protection.
It’s not too late for me to be grateful.”
Ye Chuqiu hurriedly said something, looking at Qi Chongjin, but her eyes were clearly a little angry. She thought he could keep secret, but it turned out that he actually said what she said to him directly in front of Lin Qingchuan.
came out.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, Lin Qingchuan has already recognized himself, and he already has the woman he likes in his heart, maybe he has already married her, so he told her that he was widowed. She understands that she
He will do his duty as a "dead wife" well and will not reveal even the slightest bit, making his life with his new wife unstable in the future.
However, through this incident, she also learned that important secrets must be protected by herself and must not be told to anyone. For example, her sign-in system must never be disclosed to anyone.
Before, she thought of discussing with Qi Chongjin and pretending that Qi Chongjin gave her the wheat seed, but now it seems that this method is not feasible.
I was afraid that I would have to disappear for a few more days and pretend that I bought it from somewhere else.
After all, as Lin Qingshan and others gradually gain a foothold in Dunchuan, and as they learn more and more, they will eventually become smarter and smarter. In the past, I could just find any excuse to fool them, but if I think about it again in the future, I'm afraid that
It's difficult.
So she had to do her best to be more thoughtful. She had to establish a smart image and make herself more and more unpredictable in order not to arouse suspicion.
Seeing Ye Chuqiu's face gradually darkening, Qi Chongjin realized that he had said the wrong thing. He had no bad intentions. He just thought Lin Qingchuan was a nice person and just wanted to resolve the misunderstanding between them. But he did not expect that instead
It made Ye Chuqiu unhappy.
He knew that he should have asked Ye Chuqiu in private, but he couldn't hold it back. He used to be so outspoken at an inappropriate time, so it was obvious that he had a strong backing and a good family background, but it took a long time to become a county magistrate.
After realizing his mistake, Qi Chongjin was also a little annoyed. He looked at Ye Chuqiu and quickly saved him: "Xiaoqiu, I..."
"Master Qi!"
When Ye Chuqiu heard him call her name again in front of Lin Qingchuan, the smile on his face became more and more absent, and he stood up and said, "Master Qi, General Lin, your time is precious, so I won't disturb you further.
"
After that, he left quickly.
"Alas..." Qi Chongjin looked at Ye Chuqiu's back and sighed, not knowing where he went wrong.
"Master Qi, you just said that there is a grudge between me and Mrs. Lin. How come I didn't know about it?" Lin Qingchuan asked.
"Well, Qi doesn't know about this either. It was Mrs. Lin who said that she has some grudges against you. During this time, I have been getting along with the general and I know that the general is a tolerant and open-minded person, so I want to help you resolve the grudges, but I don't know
Why did it make her unhappy?"
Qi Chongjin sighed and told Lin Qingchuan everything.
"So that's how it turned out to be."
Lin Qingchuan responded, feeling disappointed. Qi Chongjin raised his head and saw a pair of deep eyes of the person in front of him, like thick ink that couldn't be melted away. He had never seen Lin Qingchuan's expression like this before. For a moment, his heart also changed.
It feels extremely weird.
"Master Qi, you seem to be very familiar with Mrs. Lin? You actually called her Xiaoqiu?" Before he could figure it out, he heard Lin Qingchuan ask him again.
"I haven't told the general before that Qi and Mrs. Lin are old friends who have known each other for more than 20 years. I have always regarded her as my relative." Qi Chongjin said, then looked at Lin Qingchuan, "General Lin, if you are a little
If Qiu Zhen has anything to do with you, please General Lin, for Qi's sake, please don't blame her."
"I have no grudge against her, so why blame her."
Lin Qingchuan said calmly, but thinking in his heart, if she and I are married, even if I have a grudge with her, it will be your turn to intercede on her behalf.
He cast his eyes on Qi Chongjin. He didn't look any younger than himself. He also had gray hair on his temples. Apart from the smell of books on his body, he didn't know what made him better than himself. She would rather call someone else Big Brother.
I don't want to call myself.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt an indescribable resentment towards Qi Chongjin in front of him. Even though he knew that he was a good person, at this moment, he felt upset when he saw him and walked away.
"Have I offended him by saying the wrong thing again?" Qi Chongjin looked at Lin Qingchuan's back and instinctively felt something was wrong. He thought about what he said, but he didn't say anything.
Forget it, don't think about this anymore. The Dunchuan plague is getting more and more serious. Although it is not fatal, it has made people's lives worse. Some cults have also taken the opportunity to cause trouble. He really has a headache now.
Many people who have just immigrated here say that the previous plague has not been extinguished and has resurfaced, and now they are fleeing from this place.
Is there any reason for him to let the people he gathered with great difficulty leave? If this is the case, then next year he will no longer be the county magistrate.
Therefore, he must control this plague as soon as possible.
However, he couldn't figure it out. There was obviously a cure for this plague, so why did it still get to this point?
