At this moment, a voice of greeting came from outside the house. Cui Weizhen stepped over the threshold and walked in. Seeing the lively scene in the lobby, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
He had just taken Cui Zhiduan and Cui Zhiming to the courtyard of the outer house to settle the guests. The two children stayed in the outer courtyard to rest. He came back when he had time and saw this scene.
Before anyone could react, Zhong Yalan walked over more actively than anyone else and bowed Yingying: "The daughter of the people has met the prefect."
Everyone's eyes turned to her. Zhong Yalan's figure swayed slightly, but she still maintained her body. She slightly raised her beautiful face and looked up at the tall man in front of her. The smile on her face was shy and expectant, but also contained a few hints.
A vague admiration.
Cui Weizhen's brows furrowed.
He had seen many attentive women, and he could tell at a glance what this person was thinking. Thinking that this was the person he and Zhen'er saved together, he felt even more angry.
There is always a sense of anger that good intentions have been spoiled.
"Yuxiu, send this person away. Don't let anyone come in to bother Madam in the future."
Cui Weizhen's calm and ruthless words made Zhong Yalan's face turn pale instantly, and she fell to the ground in fear. The other two girls who had the same thoughts as her also turned pale and looked panicked.
But no one went back to pity them. Yuxiu "invited" them out quickly. Sun Min and Lu Xue were too embarrassed to stay any longer and left in a hurry.
When there were no more outsiders, Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen complained: "How can we put these people in front of us? It's such a mess."
Ye Zhenzhen also felt aggrieved: "How did I know they had such thoughts? I thought they were asking to see me to say goodbye."
"I'll send him away tomorrow." Cui Weizhen looked unbearable.
Ye Zhenzhen nodded repeatedly, but couldn't help but teased: "It's all your fault, Lan Yan's misfortune caused a lot of rotten peach blossoms."
Cui Weizhen nodded her forehead: "It is enough to have Zhen'er as my husband."
"Glib tongue."
Ye Zhenzhen cursed, but she felt very relieved and the smile on her face never stopped.
On the second day, Zhong Yalan and the others were politely asked to leave the office, and Sun Min and Lu Xue also left.
There is also a group of distinguished guests living in the government office. This group of distinguished guests is not anyone else, but Wu San and others who escorted them all the way to Mingzhou Prefecture.
They originally wanted to leave that day, but Cui Weizhen persuaded them to stay. After hosting a banquet for them today, Cui Weizhen asked them about their future prospects.
Wu San drank a bowl of wine, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and said: "It is helpless for ordinary people to turn into bandits. Now that Mingzhou is under your jurisdiction, everything will be prosperous, and we ordinary people can survive.
There is no need to stay on the mountain any longer. After we go back this time, we will leave some people to take care of the injured adults, and the others will go back to their homes."
They had already heard on the road that the magistrate of Shixian County had been brought to justice. Many of the brothers in their village were from Shixian County. Now they could still get pension money from the government when they returned, so they could survive no matter what.
Cui Weizhen nodded in approval: "What about you, what are your plans for the future?"
Wu San was originally a bodyguard, and he fell into the trap of a bandit in order to protect the fleeing victims. Now the victims are able to stay in their own places, and I don't know what arrangements he made.
Wu San didn't hear the implication of Cui Weizhen's words, and said: "Maybe I should continue to work as a dart. I'm used to it. I don't know how to do other jobs besides walking as a dart."
Cui Weizhen glanced at him: "Brother Wu is very powerful with his hammering skills. His martial arts is really superb. If you don't feel like giving in, I wonder if Brother Wu is willing to join my Cui family's escort team?"
Wu San was stunned for a moment, and then became ecstatic. He immediately stood up and bowed his hands to Cui Weizhen: "Thank you for not despising the vulgarity of ordinary people, and I am willing to do your best for you!"
Comparing the bodyguards and the guards of the uncle's house, a fool would know which one to choose.
Cui Weizhen was also very happy. He raised his wine bottle and had a drink with him. Others in Zhou Wu were not so polite. They martial arts practitioners have always been generous because they had a life-saving relationship with each other. Now Wu San has become theirs again.
One of them accepted him without any transition, and a group of people gathered in a circle and started drinking.
Seeing this, Cui Weizhen quietly left the table and asked them to eat and drink well, lest they feel restrained by his presence.
After returning to Mingxi Garden, she found that Ye Zhenzhen was busy. She couldn't help but curiously went over and took a look: "What are you busy with?"
The tabletop is made of land deeds and silver cloth, which is a bit strange.
Ye Zhenzhen was arranging things when suddenly the smell of alcohol hit her. She frowned and looked up to see Cui Weizhen, whose cheeks were red from drinking, appearing next to her.
"How much wine have you drunk? Yupan, go to the kitchen and ask for a bowl of hangover soup."
Yupan, who was a full-time errand boy, immediately left. Cui Weizhen helplessly sat down next to Ye Zhenzhen and said: "I have been practicing martial arts for a long time. I have been banqueting with everyone, so I will inevitably drink too much. Don't worry, I'm not drunk."
Seeing his clear expression, Ye Zhenzhen was a little skeptical. After all, this man was no different from usual when he was drunk. Anyway, let's have a bowl of hangover soup first.
The kitchen knew that Lang Jun was hosting a banquet today, so the hangover soup had been prepared early. After a while, the jade tray came back with a bowl of hangover soup. Cui Weizhen didn't like the taste of the hangover soup, but under the watchful eye of his wife, he finally
I still had the guts to drink it.
Seeing that he drank the soup obediently, Ye Zhenzhen's expression softened a little, and she was finally willing to answer his questions: "I am preparing some thank you gifts for the villagers. Thanks to their rescue and escort, we can reach Mingzhou Mansion safely.
, we may not have a chance to see each other again in the future, so it is appropriate to give some reward."
I see.
Cui Weizhen told the news about Wu San joining the escort team again. Ye Zhenzhen was very happy and said: "Wu San is very skilled in martial arts. With him, our escort team will be even more powerful. It happens that the guards still have accommodation in their house, so there is no need to
I’m looking for another house.”
Although the government office has a temporary rest room for the Cui family guards when they are on duty, it is not a serious residence. Considering this, Ye Zhenzhen has already prepared a dormitory and house for them, whether they are single or married,
All are properly distributed.
The dormitory house is not far from the government office. Li Yue bought it early. Although the price is expensive, the uncle's house cannot afford it. For the guards who work hard for the uncle's house, the efforts are worth it.
Ye Zhenzhen looked at the land deed in her hand and thought of Zhang Ming who was seriously injured in the accident, and felt sad again.
